ABOUT
GRANGE
OUR BUSINESS
Grange Resources Limited “Grange or the Company”, (ASX Code: GRR) is Australia’s most 
experienced magnetite producer with over 56 years of mining and production from its Savage 
River mine and has a potential projected mine life beyond 2040. 
Grange’s operations consist principally of owning and operating the Savage River integrated 
iron ore mining and pellet production business located in the north-west region of Tasmania. 
The Savage River magnetite iron ore mine is a long-life mining asset. At Port Latta, on the 
north-west coast of Tasmania, Grange owns a downstream pellet plant and port facility 
producing over 2.5 million tonnes of premium quality iron ore pellets annually, with plans to 
increase annual production.  Grange has a combination of spot and term contracted sales 
arrangements in place to deliver its pellets to customers throughout the Asia Pacifi c region 
and beyond.
In addition, Grange owns a major magnetite development project at Southdown, near Albany 
in Western Australia. The Southdown magnetite project, once developed, is expected to have 
the capacity to supply double the amount of iron ore produced at Savage River, at an initial 
annual production rate of 5 million tonnes of premium magnetite concentrate.  The Company 
is continuing to evaluate the strategic options in the project.

GRANGE RESOURCES ANNUAL REPORT 2024
Five key strategic drivers underpin the development of Grange’s 
business. These include: Delivering a sustainable Life-of-Mine-Plan; 
Integrating innovation into all aspects of the business; Building 
capacity and capability within our workforce; Developing strategic 
initiatives for future development and Driving shareholder value. 
Grange’s business and operational planning is directed to enact these 
strategies.
DELIVERING SUSTAINABLE
LIFE-OF-MINE-PLAN 
The Life-of-Mine-Plan is a key to underpin investment decisions and 
to optimise business execution.  
In early 2025, a progress review confi rmed the technical and 
economic viability of underground mining below North Pit, integrating 
it with the current opencut mine at Savage River. Signifi cant progress 
in exploration and preparatory works supports project execution in 
early 2026, with fi rst ore expected between late 2028 and mid-2029. 
Risk reduction measures include re-commencing Centre Pit, building 
ore stockpiles, and investing in geotechnical controls. Centre Pit will 
be the main ore source for 2025, with North Pit Stage 7 delivering 
high-grade ore later in the year.
INTEGRATE INNOVATION
Innovation is critical to improving safety, effi ciency and reducing 
cost.  Innovation tools are integrated into the business through 
our Management Operating System (MOS), and we are building 
capability with our people and systems.  These are considered 
both at the strategic level in the development of the plan and at 
the transactional level.  Application of new technology will support 
and improve operational outcomes.  Our focus is to: determine the 
potential to introduce automation into the operation; upgrade the 
equipment tracking system for the mine and optimise the mining 
cycle to reduce delay and increase effi ciency; review the opportunity 
for sources and supply of energy; and build production capability for 
potential expansion of the operation.
BUILD CAPACITY & CAPABILITY
We recognise our people as our most valuable asset, with a committed 
workforce possessing strong skills and experience. To address the 
increasing competition for human resources and the risk of losing key 
technical staff, we are implementing strategies to retain employees, 
attract necessary skills, and enhance our brand communication 
to attract talent and build specialised expertise as we develop our 
optimised Life-of-Mine-Plan.

ABOUT THE
GRANGE BUSINESS
MAGNETITE
Magnetite is a naturally occurring mineral commonly refi ned 
into an iron ore concentrate and used for steel production. Iron 
ore makes up about fi ve per cent of the Earth’s crust and most 
commonly occurs in the form of haematite or magnetite. Most 
of the magnetite mined is usually used to produce concentrate 
for pellet feed or pellets which are used to make steel.
Magnetite concentrate has internal thermal energy, meaning 
less energy is required as the magnetite is converted into 
haematite pellets.  This results in lower carbon dioxide emissions. 
The blast furnace chemically reduces iron oxide into liquid iron 
called ‘hot metal’. The iron ore and reducing agents (coke, coal 
and limestone) are combined. Pre-heated air is injected at 
the bottom of the combination for up to eight hours. The fi nal 
product is a liquid which is drained and eventually refi ned to 
produce steel.
Mining magnetite ore is capital intensive and requires signifi cant 
downstream processing infrastructure including a benefi ciation 
plant, a pellet plant and port facilities.  Magnetite products 
command a value premium above haematite ore products 
such as fi nes and lump. This premium is derived on two fronts, 
through additional iron content, and a quality premium. 
As magnetite concentrate is a refi ned product, it usually 
has higher iron content and lower impurities.  This can have 
benefi cial quality and environmental outcomes for the steel 
maker.
Grange Resources Limited (Grange) owns and operates 
Australia’s oldest integrated iron ore mining and pellet 
production business located in the northwest region of 
Tasmania. The Savage River magnetite iron ore mine, 100km 
southwest of the city of Burnie, is a long-life mining asset set 
to continue operation to beyond 2038. At Port Latta, 70km 
northwest of Burnie, is Grange’s wholly owned pellet plant and 
port facility producing more than 2.5 million tonnes of premium 
quality iron ore pellets annually with plans to increase annual 
production. 
As well as this profi table magnetite operation, Grange owns 
100% in of the Southdown magnetite mining project near 
Albany in Western Australia.

DEVELOP STRATEGIC INITIATIVES
Grange is developing the capacity and capability to address new 
markets driven by change in climate. The company is committed to a 
low-carbon future and has a roadmap to reduce emissions, including 
energy reduction, furnace upgrades, heat recovery, technology 
application, and electric vehicles. The decarbonisation of the steel 
industry and the emergence of the “Green Steel” market present an 
opportunity for Grange to obtain a potential “Green Premium” for its 
low CO2 products. 
The Federal Government’s $1 billion Green Iron Fund supports green 
iron projects, and the North Pit Underground development aligns 
with its objectives, potentially reducing carbon emissions by 80% 
once fully developed.
DRIVE SHAREHOLDER VALUE
Grange 
will 
continue 
to 
demonstrate 
consistent 
fi nancial 
performance to ensure sustainable long-term growth. By integrating 
the underground mine development with the current opencut mine 
and evaluating an extension of the Centre Pit mine plan, the Company 
aims to de-risk operations, enhance fl exibility, extend the life-of-mine, 
reduce carbon emissions, and lower costs. This will position Grange 
well during cycles of lower iron ore prices.

GRANGE RESOURCES ANNUAL REPORT 2024
OUTLOOK 
We fi nd ourselves in a time of signifi cant geopolitical volatility, 
characterised by ongoing confl icts, trade tensions, and polarisation 
at both domestic and international levels. As we look ahead to 2025, 
we anticipate further fl uctuations; however, we remain united in our 
commitment to managing risk effectively. I am confi dent that we 
have the right strategy in place to seize numerous opportunities while 
navigating the associated challenges.
Iron ore prices have recently dipped below U$100 per tonne, triggered 
by the implementation of tariffs by the US on Canada, Mexico, and 
China, which raised concerns about the potential for a damaging 
global trade war. Additionally, ongoing diffi culties within China’s 
property sector continue to impede price recovery.  The government’s 
stimulus efforts have yet to signifi cantly impact construction material 
markets, thereby limiting the prospects for price increases. The 
delays in decarbonisation initiatives will also infl uence pellet demand. 
Looking to 2025 and beyond, we can expect iron ore prices to be 
impacted by supply-side dynamics, as new mines and expansions are 
set to increase global production. While we may experience short-
term fl uctuations due to global economic instability, the overarching 
trend suggests a return to stability as supply and demand come into 
balance over the long term. Furthermore, global steel production is 
projected to gradually recover in the medium term.
Despite the uncertain landscape we currently navigate, the long-
term outlook for our sector remains positive. We are committed to 
fostering a robust safety culture, encouraging our employees to 
propose innovative ideas to enhance and strengthen our business. 
Our strong balance sheet serves as a solid foundation for managing 
volatile markets, ensuring that we have the necessary capital to 
sustain our operations throughout the economic cycle.
While the road ahead may be challenging, our collective resilience 
and proactive strategies position us well to overcome obstacles and 
capitalise on future opportunities.
The Board and management team maintain a positive outlook for 
the pellet market, actively seeking opportunities for innovation, 
improvement, and productivity growth. The sector’s decarbonisation 
ambitions present a unique chance for our company to lead the way. 
Our commitment lies in expanding our business while simultaneously 
decarbonising, by providing high-quality, low-impurity iron ore pellet 
products that support the transition to a low-carbon economy 
and delivering attractive returns to our shareholders. We prioritise 
delivering value to our dedicated employees and shareholders.
The company’s strategic focus is on generating sustained shareholder 
value by safely producing high-quality iron ore products from our 
Savage River and Port Latta operations in Tasmania. Simultaneously, 
we ensure that permits and project assets for the Southdown project 
in Western Australia remain in good standing across all tenements. 
Our focused strategies include:
• 
Optimising the integration and transition of the Life of Mine Plan 
from open-cut to underground mining.
• 
Producing high-grade ore from the Centre Pit.
• 
Delivering on secured off-take agreements.
• 
Maintaining access to ore through ongoing investments in mine 
development.
• 
Preserving critical process infrastructure.
• 
Continuing to improve productivity and implement cost control 
measures.
• 
Expanding into new markets beyond the Asia-Pacifi c region.
In addition, the Company continually assesses and manages 
various business risks that could affect our operational and fi nancial 
performance, as well as our ability to successfully deliver on strategic 
priorities. These risks include:
• 
Health, safety, and environmental concerns.
• 
Impacts of climate change on our operations.
• 
Volatility in the iron ore market and fl uctuations in foreign exchange 
rates.
• 
Volatility in energy prices, availability, and tight labour markets.
• 
Production risks related to pit wall stability and aging infrastructure.
• 
Costs and delivery challenges associated with project evaluation 
and development.
• 
Risks associated with underground mining and the transition 
process.
We remain committed to exploring optimal solutions for these 
challenges, ensuring our company not only adapts but thrives in a 
dynamic market landscape.
Thank you
On behalf of Grange’s Board and management, once again, we would 
like to thank all of our employees for their dedication and hard work 
over the past year. We are proud of our excellent culture, capability 
and resilience to best place us for a prosperous future.  And to our 
shareholders, thank you for your continued support.

DEAR SHAREHOLDERS,
The year 2024 presented signifi cant challenges for Grange, yet it was 
also marked by strategic achievements, operational resilience, and 
progress toward our long-term vision. We adapted to dynamic market 
conditions and evolving stakeholder expectations. This report outlines 
our key accomplishments, fi nancial performance, and roadmap for 
sustaining value creation.
Our robust results in 2024 were achieved through disciplined 
capital expenditure focused on safety, productivity, and future mine 
development. We maintained fi nancial stability, enabling investment 
in long-term improvement projects and operational optimization. 
Prioritized the health and safety of our people and communities, 
embedding best practices across all operations. Our strategy aligns 
with shifting external risks and opportunities, ensuring readiness 
for long-term growth and balances immediate productivity with 
future mine life extension. By optimising operations, advancing 
development projects, and maintaining fi nancial discipline, we are 
positioned to deliver sustained shareholder value, respond agilely to 
market shifts, and capitalise on growth opportunities. The Board’s 
proactive approach to risk management ensures we remain resilient 
in uncertain environments while safeguarding stakeholder interests.
2024 REVIEW
The iron ore market faced many challenges throughout 2024. Global 
steel demand has been relatively weak  particularly in the second 
half when the iron ore price fell to U$91 in September from U$144 
in January. As the world’s largest producer and exporter of steel, 
China’s production of crude steel declined due to ongoing issues in 
the property sector which have weighed down the steel and iron ore 
markets.
We continue to focus on building a safe culture. We have achieved 
over 600 days Lost Time Injury Free (LTIF). The Company delivered 
another year of strong fi nancial results. We achieved a profi t after tax 
of $58.5 million (2023: $150.1 million), revenues from mining operations 
of $520.8 million (2023: $614.7 million) with average product prices of 
$182.94 per tonne (2023: $212.83 per tonne) (FOB Port Latta). Total 
pellet production of 2.47 million tonnes (2023: 2.34 million tonnes) 
was achieved while  C1 cash operating costs increased to $146.14 per 
tonne (2023: $136.65 per tonne). The increase is largely due to the 
signifi cant increase in energy costs and mining movement. A mid-
year dividend of 0.5 cents per share or $5.79 million was declared 
for shareholders this year. Cash and cash equivalents positioned at 
$298.05 million (2023: $282.6 million) at the end of the year. 
Mining activities have continued to focus on the cutbacks in both 
North Pit and Centre Pit. Ore from the main ore zone in Centre Pit 
has been delivered throughout the year. This has been blended 
with existing stockpiles to sustain production and yield high quality 
pellets. The cutback on the east wall of North Pit continues with the 
implementation of the refi ned pit design. Centre Pit is delivering more 
ore than planned, with the head grade increasing as we progress 
deeper into the pit. This has supported strong production results 
from the concentrator. Wall instability in the south end of Centre 
Pit is being carefully monitored with a known and managed slope 
experiencing some movement through the winter months.  A step 
in from the highwall has been implemented to ensure continued 
ore development. The current mining of ore in Centre Pit and waste 
removal in North Pit will progress further in 2025. 
The Company completed the Defi nitive Feasibility Study (DFS) for 
underground mining below North Pit and its integration with the 
company’s current open-cut mine. The fi ndings of the DFS were 
integrated with the transition from open-cut mining to demonstrate 
the effective implementation of the underground project alongside 
the current operation. All environmental and development approvals 
were received in the third quarter after successful completion of the 
submission and review period. The development of the exploration 
decline saw over 3,000m of advance and the completion of the fi rst 
raise bore hole in the southern primary ventilation circuit. The pilot 
hole for the second raise bore hole was also completed and reaming 
was commenced. Drilling for a diamond hole was also commenced 
in the geotechnical inspection drive. A dewatering system has 
been successfully implemented from the open pit and is effectively 
controlling water for the underground activities. Other preparation 
works were undertaken to address the project control system, power 
supply requirements and engineering for the material handling 
system. 
Furnace 4 has been consistently operating without the addition of 
anthracite throughout the year. This has resulted in a reduction in 
our coal use at Port Latta and consequently a reduction in CO2-e 
emissions associated with the combustion of coal. This improvement 
work has been well received by our customers and work will be 
continued for the rest of furnaces in the future.
During the year, the review of the Defi nitive Feasibility Study for the 
Southdown Magnetite Project continued along with the search for 
equity investors. Once the appropriate partners have joined the 
Project, a bridging study phase will be undertaken, and a fi nal project 
description and scope will be produced. This will allow the fi nalisation 
of current environmental approvals. All existing tenements, approvals 
and project assets continue to be maintained in good order to 
facilitate the development of the Project.
• 
The Company’s decarbonisation initiatives progress forward. 
Recent project realignment with funding requirements for the 
development of the electric underground mine and increased 
technical engineering for furnace effi ciency and heat recovery 
projects have increased the time required to reach our targets. In 
FY2024, Grange Resources remains steadfast in its commitment 
to identifying, mitigating, and managing climate-related risks 
and opportunities, reinforcing its dedication to sustainability and 
stakeholder transparency. Decarbonisation is core to our strategy. 
We have ambitious targets to reduce our emissions. We have 
developed a roadmap that should enable us to achieve our targets. 
The Company recognises recent market and policy shifts and will 
remain agile in our approach.  
Our executive team is driving this change, with the full support of the 
Board, reinforcing the importance of mindsets and behaviours that 
ensure everyone, everywhere in our operations feels safe, valued and 
empowered.

GRANGE RESOURCES ANNUAL REPORT 2024
SAFETY PERFORMANCE
Grange operations have achieved over 600 days Lost Time Injury Free 
(LTIFR) and an exceptional Total Reportable Injury Frequency Rate 
(TRIFR) of 2.0 with only 4 Medical Treatment Injuries (MTIs) for the 
year. Management’s focus on lead indicators, hazard identifi cation, 
and risk management has resulted in better-than-industry-standard 
lag indicators for 2024 and fewer reportable incidents. The workforce 
is commended for these results, especially given the involvement of 
new employees and short-term contractors.
With recent WHS legislation changes recognising psychosocial risk, 
the Company updated the HSE policy, endorsed by the CEO and 
COO. In 2024, there were fewer Disabling Injuries (DIs) than the 
previous year, with most being short-term injuries where workers 
contributed to training while away from normal duties. Contractors 
still make up a percentage of these statistics.
In 2024, Grange worked with the Hexagon HxGN MineProtect 
Operator Alertness System (OAS) and completed the rollout of the 
Hexagon Collision Avoidance System (CAS) for our large mining fl eet. 
OAS has given us an advantage in fatigue management, helping 
identify fatigue before incidents occur. These systems are industry 
best practice and promise to reduce injuries from fatigue and reduced 
awareness, marking another continuous improvement milestone for 
Grange.

GRANGE RESOURCES ANNUAL REPORT 2024
ENERGY ALTERNATIVES
Early in 2020, Grange set out to investigate potential routes for 
carbon reduction at our Tasmanian operation.  It was identifi ed that 
our two biggest contributors were our diesel usage from the mining 
fl eet at Savage River and natural gas usage from the furnaces at the 
Port Latta Pellet Plant. Anthracite was identifi ed as having the highest 
emissions per joule of energy. 
As part of our strategic vision to reduce emissions across the operation 
in 2023 we commenced a furnace effi ciency program to remove the 
requirement for anthracite and reduce total energy requirement at 
Port Latta. The upgraded furnace continued to deliver enhanced 
performance in 2024 that saw during the period of July 2023 to 
June 2024 reduced anthracite usage of 2,741 tonnes, and subsequent 
reduced emissions produced by the burning of coal by 7,171 tonnes.1 
Grange continues to work with the Heavy Industry Low Carbon 
Transition Cooperative Research Centre (HILT-CRC) as a founding 
member and core partner. 
Projects and studies focus on investigating decarbonised production 
of green iron products from magnetite ores. We are considering 
technologies, data, and demonstrations at a suffi cient scale to support 
end-use adoption of products, such as low-carbon induration routes 
(replacing natural gas with hydrogen and electrically generated heat), 
increased domestic pre-processing of magnetite concentrate before 
export, and unlocking new orebodies through low-carbon processing 
routes using hydrogen, electrifi cation, or solar thermal heat.
Grant funding of up to $20 million was awarded through the Powering 
the Regions Fund - Safeguard Transformation Stream - Round 1.  This 
funding highlighted Grange’s commitment to sustainability and 
innovation in the mining sector.  The grants support two key projects 
aimed at decarbonisation and sustainable practices and include 
the electrifi cation of underground operations at Savage River and 
furthering the elimination of Anthracite use in Furnaces at the Port 
Latta Pellet Plant.
Grange acknowledges the support of the Department of Climate 
Change, Energy, the Environment and Water, and the Department 
of Industry, Science and Resources. These projects are expected 
to signifi cantly reduce carbon dioxide emissions and promote 
sustainable practices within the mining industry.
Grange produced emissions in the order of 0.11 t CO2 per tonne of 
pellet production in 2024, an 8% reduction on the previous year and 
continues to place the Company in the 2nd quartile of the emissions 
curve.2
Grange is well positioned to take advantage of any potential “Green” 
premiums as the “Green Steel” market evolves with having one of the 
lowest CO2 emissions per tonne of pellet produced.  
EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION 
There was no diamond drilling completed in 2024 on surface or 
underground for resource defi nition or orebody knowledge. Drilling 
activities in 2024 focused on cover holes to inform and reduce the 
risk to underground development and the characterisation and 
performance assessment of waste dumps. To this end the following 
drilling was completed: 
• 
3 diamond drill holes (611m) were drilled as cover holes to evaluate 
planned ventilation raise locations. 
• 
4 Sonic holes (98m) were drilled in silts and sands on the east side 
of North Pit to evaluate soil properties as a waste rock cover.
• 
5 Sonic holes (69m) were drilled into selected waste dumps to 
provide soil moisture and oxygen level instrumentation.
• 
16 Sonic holes (189m) were drilled to prepare instrumentation 
sites for the South Deposit Tailings Storage Facility (SDTSF).  1 
diamond drill holes was completed for underground geotechnical 
modelling purposes.  
The Mineral Resource stands at 468 million tonnes at 44.3% DTR, 
maintaining a similar level of  resource from the 2023 annual report, 
with a small reduction due to mining depletion.  The decrease in total 
Mineral Resource is considered minor given the quantum of the total 
Mineral Resources, annual mine production levels, and the ongoing 
nature exploration activities. 
Further resource defi nition drilling of North Pit from underground is 
expected to commence in 2026.  The aim is to improve confi dence 
in the quantity and grade of the resource and further de-risk the Ore 
Reserve  for potential underground mining while also exploring the 
ore body at greater depth.

NORTH PIT UNDERGROUND DEVELOPMENT PROJECT
In January 2024 the company recommenced extension of the 
underground decline following the positive outcomes of the DFS. 
This supported positive  fi nancial outcomes with an underground 
mine technically and economically viable for the North Pit ore 
body.  The fi ndings of the DFS were integrated with the transition 
from opencut mining to demonstrate the effective implementation 
of the underground project alongside the current operation (see 
announcement 28 February 2024).
Unfortunately, the iron ore price forecast softened in 2024 and with 
the lower long term price forecast the company took a pause to 
the development while funding is sought to ensure the successful 
implementation of the project as planned (see announcement 16 
December 2024).  
The company remains fi rmly committed to the project and has 
engaged the services of BurnVoir to facilitate fi nding the optimum 
source of funding for the project (see announcement 29 January 
2025). Grange fully expects the pause to be temporary and is 
scheduling to commence development in 2026 after securing 
funding and the Final Investment Decision. 
2024 UNDERGROUND DEVELOPMENT 
A number of key developments were progressed through the year, 
establishing access and underground infrastructure to prepare the 
operation for the transition.
• 
3 kilometres of underground development was constructed. The 
decline now reaches a depth of -224mRL and is 110m above the 
planned extraction level 
• 
95m of vertical development for the fi rst ventilation raise was 
completed in 2024 and reaming of the second exhaust raise was 
completed in March 2025. 
• 
The SLC Transition Mine layout was changed from transverse 
to longitudinal to maximise the free-face for cave initiation.  This 
was directly aligned to the North Pit wall to increase recovery and 
the production ramp-up. This change also reduces development 
through waste and the fault zone.

GRANGE RESOURCES ANNUAL REPORT 2024
HEALTH SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT
OVERVIEW
Grange remains committed to responsible occupational health 
and safety management, along with sound environmental and 
social responsibility (HSE) practices. Our “Safety and Environment 
Management System” (SEMS) supports OHS & ESR policies and 
defi nes the required standards for all Grange facilities. SEMS is 
continually monitored and updated to refl ect changes in WHS 
regulations and best practices, ensuring compliance and continuous 
improvement.
The OHS policy is reviewed and signed off annually by our executive 
team, emphasizing the importance of safety systems. SEMS, an 
integral part of the Grange Management System (GMS), is supported 
by a management plan for 16 major hazards, including 4 Principal 
Mining Hazards as outlined in the Tasmanian Mining Legislation. 
SEMS is aligned with ISO 45001 & ISO 45003 Occupational Health 
& Safety Standards and ISO 14001 Environmental Management 
Standards, applicable to both national and international operations. 
It is also integrated into our Certifi cate IV Leadership & Management 
training competency for current and aspiring leaders.
Grange’s OHS management team leaders actively participate in 
industry safety initiatives, such as the tripartite WHS Regulations 
review, the Mine Safety Steering Committee, and the Minerals 
Council of Australia (MCA) Fatality Prevention Project Working Group.
With an increased focus on managing psychosocial hazards at work 
and the introduction of a Code of Practice, Grange has enhanced 
its integrated OHS & ESR Management Systems with an employee 
psychosocial health survey and analysis. In 2024, we commenced the 
fi rst year of the new “HSE Strategic Plan,” which includes consultation 
and training, and shared this plan via a MOS toolbox with key 
stakeholders. This plan references SEMS, our Mission Statement, and 
Safety Principles.
MISSION STATEMENT
To drive a continuous improvement culture involving everyone 
at Grange. We strive to eliminate injury, loss and waste, and create 
positive environmental outcomes adding value to the communities 
in which we operate. 
This will be achieved through effective adherence to management 
systems, integrated risk management practices, risk aware culture, 
demonstrable 
leadership, 
maintaining 
standards, 
monitoring 
performance and looking after our people.
SAFETY PRINCIPLES
• 
All injuries and loss events are preventable
• 
All hazards can be identifi ed and their risks managed
• 
No task is so important that it cannot be done safely and 
respectfully
• 
Every person is accountable for their own safety and the safety of 
those around them
• 
Safety performance can always be improved
SAFETY PERFORMANCE
Grange is committed to providing safe systems and a safe workplace 
for everyone at every site. We expect the same level of commitment 
from all who work with and for us, ensuring that everyone returns 
home in the same or better condition than when they arrived. The 
Board has approved a 3-year HSE Strategic Plan, culminating in 2026.
Our systems’ effectiveness is demonstrated by consistent positive 
record book entries from WST inspector visits. In 2024, we maintained 
safety controls preventing business disruption and ensuring the 
health, safety, and wellbeing of our employees, contractors, and 
community.
Grange ensures compliance with legislative requirements across all 
operations, including Federal & State Work Health & Safety Legislation, 
Anti-Discrimination Legislation, Fair Work Australia Legislation, 
Rehabilitation & Workers Compensation Legislation, Environmental 
Legislation, Codes of Practice, industry standards, Whistleblower 
legislation, mining-specifi c HSE legislation, and environmental licence 
conditions. Established systems track, monitor, and implement 
corrective actions for any non-compliance.
We continued to focus on reducing costs without compromising 
support services:
• 
Emergency Response Team (ERT) in-house training saved costs 
while maintaining high standards and improving underground 
rescue capability. 
• 
Monitored underground emergency refuge chambers and 
associated equipment to maintain compliance with industry 
standards and WST expectations. 
• 
Managed ERT size while increasing general fi rst aid training 
coverage, ensuring competent personnel where needed. 
• 
Obtained Federal and State government training funds, reducing 
training costs and providing opportunities for young workers to 
commence apprenticeships. 
• 
The highwall scaling excavator development promises to restore 
lost berm catch capacity, clean batters, and improve mining safety, 
generating industry-wide interest. 
• 
Participation in the Insurance Underwriters safety audit provided 
initiatives to reduce insurance costs. 
• 
Investment in Mental Health and Wellbeing fi rst aid training for 
Management and Contact Offi cers fostered an alert and caring 
worker relationship. 
• 
Focus on gender diversity, respect at work, and cultural awareness 
promoted the role of women in our workforce and supported 
greater diversity in our teams. 
• 
Strategic focus on “Critical Controls” further strengthened our risk 
management system and initiatives.
Grange recognises the importance of contractors’ safety management 
systems 
aligning 
with 
WorkSafe Tasmania 
and 
mine 
safety 
regulations, as well as our own safety standards. We incorporated and 
communicated new OHS & ESR requirements for contractors into 
our SEMS and other lead indicators, dedicated Area Inspections, and 
formalised Task Observations for management and key personnel. 
Lead indicators have been strengthened with specifi c KPIs for the 
recommenced underground workings with our underground team 
and PYBAR. Completion and tracking of lead indicators using the 
iAuditor system have made the process more effi cient, allowing more 
time for task observations. Lead Indicators have helped reduce risk 
exposures across all areas, evidenced by our continued excellent lost 
time injury (LTI) free record, with only 1 LTI in more than 7 years.

MINERAL RESOURCES AND ORE RESERVES STATEMENT
– SAVAGE RIVER OPERATIONS
The following tables show the Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves 
for the Savage River operations as at 31 December 2024. The mining 
of ore throughout the year focussed on ore supply from Centre Pit. 
The Mineral Resource has been depleted since the previous estimate 
dated 31 December 2023 as a result of mining. Ore Reserves have 
decreased by mining depletion from North Pit and Centre Pit along 
with refi nement to mine designs, and updated production schedule.
Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves are categorised in accordance 
with the Australasian Code for Exploration Results, Mineral Resources 
and Ore Reserves of 2012 (JORC Code, 2012). Estimated Measured 
and Indicated Mineral Resources include those Mineral Resources 
modifi ed to produce the estimated Ore Reserves. Mineral Resources 
which are not included in the Ore Reserves do not currently meet the 
required level of technical planning and economic viability hurdle at 
the time of last review.

ENVIRONMENTAL 
LEGISLATIVE APPROVAL
Grange obtained approvals to operate in 1996 and 1997 under the Land 
Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993 (LUPA) and the Environmental 
Management and Pollution Control Act 1994 (EMPCA) as well as the 
Goldamere Pty Ltd (Agreement) Act 1996 and Mineral Resources 
Development Act 1995. This approval covers an expected mine and 
processing life at Savage River, gangue removal and concentrating 
at Savage River, and pelletising at Port Latta. The original land use 
permit conditions for Savage River and Port Latta are contained in 
Environmental Protection Notices 248/2 and 302/2 respectively.
Grange received planning approval from the Waratah Wynyard 
Council and the Tasmanian Environment Protection Authority 
for the construction of South Deposit Tailings Storage Facility in 
March 2014 under PCE 8808, as well as federal approval under the 
Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 
(EPBC) in April 2014 under EPBC approval 6393. South Deposit 
cutback was approved in August 2014 but is now largely regulated 
under the Centre Pit Expansion and South Deposit Backfi ll Dump 
through DA 216/2021 and Permit Conditions-Environmental No. 
10995. In January 2020, approval was granted under Environment 
Protection Notice 10006/2 for the North Pit Underground exploration 
decline. On 14 August 2024 Grange also received approval for North 
Pit Underground as an operational underground mine, under Permit 
Conditions-Environmental No. 12021.
GOLDAMERE ACT
The Goldamere Pty Ltd (Agreement) Act 1996 (referred to as the 
Goldamere Act) makes provisions for Grange’s operation under 
Tasmanian legislation and provides a framework for Grange to repay 
the Tasmanian Government for the purchase of the mine through 
remediation works. The Goldamere Act relieves Grange of any 
environmental liability in relation to legacy contamination, pollutants 
or pollution caused by operations prior to the date of the Goldamere 
Agreement (Royal Ascent received 16th December 1996). Where 
pollution is caused or might be caused by previous operations and 
that pollution may be impacting on Grange’s operations or discharges, 
Grange is indemnifi ed against that pollution. Notwithstanding, Grange 
is required to operate to Best Practice Environmental Management 
(BPEM). A signifi cant variation to the Goldamere Agreement was 
signed on the 19 December 2014 which extends the Agreement until 
24 December 2034.  This variation also removed a signifi cant number 
of redundant conditions. The amended Goldamere Agreement 
provides a framework for Grange to co-manage the Savage River 
Rehabilitation Project (SRRP) and carry out contracted works in lieu 
of paying the purchase price of the operation to the Government. 
The agreement also allows Grange to integrate its rehabilitation 
obligations with those of the State under the SRRP.
PLANNING APPROVALS
Grange obtained planning approval subject to a series of 
environmental permit conditions in January 1997.  Planning approval 
was issued by the Waratah Wynyard Council for Savage River, and 
by the Circular Head Council for Port Latta.  The approvals were 
conditional on the provision of an Environmental Management Plan 
(EMP) incorporating an Environmental Rehabilitation Plan (ERP) prior 
to the commencement of operations.  Various other studies were also 
required.  
Grange received planning approvals from the Waratah Wynyard 
Council for the South Deposit Tailings Storage Facility (SDTSF) 
during 2014, construction commenced in July 2014 and operation 
commenced in Q4 2018. 
Full approval of the Centre Pit Expansion and South Deposit Backfi ll 
Dump was achieved in 2022.
On 14 August 2024 Grange also received planning approval 
DA54/2024 for North Pit Underground.  
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLANS
Grange’s Environmental Management Plan (EMP) was fi rst approved 
by the (then) Department of Environment Parks, Heritage and the 
Arts when Savage River and Port Latta operations re-commenced in 
October 1997.  A later revision of the approval documents occurred 
on 6 October 2000 when Environmental Protection Notices (EPN) 
248/2 and 302/2 were issued to replace the environmental permit 
conditions for Savage River and Port Latta respectively.
Approvals are required from the Tasmanian EPA and relevant Councils 
for major infrastructure developments and operational expansions 
and changes. These approvals are in the form of development 
approvals, planning permits, approved EPN’s etc. Amendments can 
also be made to refl ect changing operational circumstances and 
an increasing knowledge base and provide for changes to waste 
rock dumping plans and any proposed treatment facilities. Such 
amendments are enacted by the issue of planning permits, EPN’s or 
Permit Conditions Environmental (PCE)’s.
An amendment to the EMP was approved for an extension of mine 
and pelletising operations in early 2007 to approve the Mine Life 
Extension Plan. 
EMP and Environmental Rehabilitation Plan (ERP) reviews are 
submitted on a 3-yearly basis to EPA. Revised EMPs refl ect BPEM, 
current mine planning, and focus on closure requirements and 
rehabilitation. A revised EMP was submitted to the EPA in December 
2024, and an updated ERP was provided to EPA in October 2023. 
The Tasmanian EPA issued EPN 10006/2 in January 2020, and PCE 
12021 in August 2024 enabling the construction of the North Pit 
Underground Project. The EMP and ERP have been updated to refl ect 
the relevant changes that underground mining methodology will 
introduce.
SAVAGE RIVER REHABILITATION PROJECT 
(“SRRP”)
The Savage River Rehabilitation Project (SRRP) was initiated in 1997 as 
a collaboration between the government and the mining company, 
with the objective to mitigate the effects of historical pollution at 
Savage River. Grange has upheld this partnership model established 
by the SRRP and has been actively involved in addressing the legacy 
pollution issues at Savage River and Port Latta. 
The Goldamere Act set out the fi nancial provisions for the SRRP and 
delineated the duties of a collaborative Management Committee. 
This Committee consists of two members from the EPA, one from 
Mineral Resources Tasmania (part of the Department of State 
Growth), and two from Grange Resources Tasmania. Funding for the 
SRRP is allocated across two accounts: the Environment Protection 
Fund, which is an interest-bearing statutory Trust, and the interest 
incurring Purchase Price account, which represents the debt owed 
to the Crown and is gradually settled by Grange over time through 
remediation works. 
Grange representatives meet with representatives from SRRP 
multiple times per year to develop and implement remediation works 
at Savage River and Port Latta.  Grange has collaboratively contracted 
with the SRRP for works including construction, management and 
development of waste rock dump covers, acid drainage pipelines 
and other remediation projects.  The SRRP objective is to capture 
and treat 65% of the site’s copper load to remove the possibility of an 
acutely toxic aquatic environment.  The scope of works to meet this 
objective has been completed and costed to feasibility level.  
A strategic plan outlining the works required to achieve the objective 
and repay Grange’s purchase price debt has been approved by 
the Tasmanian Environmental Protection Authority and is being 
implemented by the SRRP Committee.  This plan is updated annually 
to refl ect the long-term risks and Grange’s latest mining plan. The 
SRRP Strategic Plan is publicly available via the EPA Tasmania website.

SHARING AND LEARNING 
Grange embraces continuous learning and sharing of safety 
experiences. Alongside successful online induction programs, we 
conduct extensive on-site safety training, including work permit 
training, energy isolations, site and pit driving permits, simulation 
training for new operators, fi re warden and extinguisher training, 
and refreshers on occupational fi rst aid and road accident rescue 
entrapment release. Our effective online “Isolations” training package 
allows offsite contract workers to learn our systems before arriving 
on site.
In 2024, Grange continued training in the “ICAM” (Incident Cause 
Analysis Method) investigation process and developed a “Safety 
Dashboard” to collate information from the incident reporting system. 
This enhancement improved the daily review of incidents in pre-shift 
meetings, providing an effective view of newly raised incidents, open 
investigations, recently closed investigations, and actions in progress.
Throughout the year, Grange worked closely with the Offi ce of the 
Chief Inspector of Mines (OCIM), providing an outlet for GMIRM 
(Global Mining Industry Risk Management) training. We will 
continue this interaction in 2025. Our GMIRM seminars are open to 
other Tasmanian Mines and Mining contractors via the Tasmanian 
Minerals, Manufacturing and Energy Council (TMEC) to promote risk 
management throughout the industry.
Internally, Grange reviewed the HSR “Workgroups” to include an 
electrical workgroup and HSR/Deputy at Port Latta, with a similar 
process for the Savage River Concentrator workers in 2024. 
Additionally, the Company reinforced many site-wide health and 
safety programs aimed at improving employee wellbeing, including 
cancer awareness, heart safety awareness, respect at work, and 
mental health awareness/fi rst aid.
Grange has a fully functional and qualifi ed emergency response team 
(ERT) providing expert fi rst aid and fi rst response care to our sites 
and others in need, including road accidents in the Savage River and 
Port Latta areas. The company is a member of the Tasmanian Mines 
Emergency Response Committee (TMERC) and commits to providing 
assistance through Mutual Aid to other member sites as requested.
COMMITMENT TO SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
Grange remains committed to social responsibility by engaging with 
stakeholders and communities to understand and respond to their 
interests and concerns. We maintain regular dialogue with neighbours 
and communities near our operations and support the education 
sector through tours, school curriculum information, industry links, 
a graduate program, and work opportunities. In 2024, we hosted 
several work experience students and school tours.
Our management and workers actively participated in WorkSafe 
Tasmania (WST) workshops, sharing our Safety Management 
approach with other industry participants. Our interactions with 
WST have been positive and mutually benefi cial. The inspectorate 
requested Grange’s participation in reviewing the Tasmanian “Mines 
Work Health & Safety (Supplementary Requirements) Regulations 
2012” during 2024. Additionally, our HSE team actively contributed to 
the Minerals Council Australia “Fatality Prevention Project.”

GRANGE RESOURCES ANNUAL REPORT 2024
ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL,
AND GOVERNANCE (ESG) METRICS
Grange has adopted an Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) framework with 21 core 
metrics and disclosures as created by the World Economic Forum (WEF) and is establishing 
an impact measurement plan for each sustainability area which includes, but is not limited to, 
governance, anti-corruption practices, ethical behaviour, human rights, carbon emissions, land use, 
ecological sensitivity, water consumption, diversity and inclusion, pay equality and tax payments.
ESG REPORTING UPDATES
Grange continues to track progress along our road map to reduce emissions. This involves the:
• 
reduction in energy used per tonne of product
• 
upgrades to furnaces
• 
energy effi ciency in the pellet plant
• 
application of technology and electric vehicles in the mining operation
• 
and alternative fuel sources
With a review of recent project realignment and funding requirements for the electric underground 
mine and furnace effi ciency projects, the time required to complete our major projects has been 
extended.  We remain committed to maintaining our current emissions reduction targets:
•  CO2-e emission target reduction of 50% by 2030 
•  Target of Zero CO2-e (Scope 1 and 2) emissions by 2035
Progress to our targets is supported by several project achievements in 2024  including 3 kms of 
the underground development and the operational improvements to Furnace 4 which continues 
to operate successfully without the addition of anthracite. Detailed design work and engineering 
is progressing on the modifi cations required for effi ciency improvements to the other furnace 
lines.

PRINCIPAL ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES
Waste Rock, Tailings and Water Management – Savage River
• 
Water, tailings and waste rock management at Savage River are 
principal environmental issues that entail several key strategies 
such as:
- 
Development of waste rock dumps which exclude oxygen to 
minimise the formation of acid mine drainage, and utilisation 
of these dumps to form seals on old waste rock dumps
- 
Tailings deposition and maintenance of saturated tailings; 
providing a centralised water treatment system using a 
disused pit to eliminate turbidity from mine runoff.
- 
Appropriate management and monitoring systems to ensure 
regulatory compliance in these areas. 
• 
Main Creek Tails Dam is effectively closed in terms of tailings 
deposition with fi nal closure works being completed
Air Emissions Reduction Program – Port Latta
• 
Grange continued to work on quality and measurement systems 
to improve performance of the Port Latta operations especially 
in relation to air emissions. In particular, the focus is on the stable 
operation of furnaces.
REHABILITATION PLANS
Grange continues to plan for closure and departure on completion 
of the mining plan.  Principal issues related to mine closure include 
waste rock dump maintenance, tailings management, future use 
of infrastructure and a fi ve-year post life of mine monitoring and 
maintenance plan. All of these aspects have been addressed in the 
ERP, which is submitted to EPA on an ongoing 3-yearly basis.

GRANGE RESOURCES ANNUAL REPORT 2024
ALBANY PORT
The study has adopted a transhipping methodology  utilising existing 
land within the Port, subject to commercial agreements with 
Southern Ports Authority. This design would incorporate the addition 
of a new wharf at Albany Port’s Berth 5, a fi ltration plant, a concentrate 
stockpile shed, and a ship loading facility The magnetite concentrate 
will be loaded onto a Transhipment Vessel (TSV) and barged to the 
larger Cape sized vessels located at two existing anchorage points in 
King George Sound.
In addition to port access and commercial agreement negotiations, 
further work will increase stakeholder engagement and continue 
studies to assess the environmental, community and visual impacts, 
to facilitate new environmental and operational approvals. 
WATER
With the introduction of dry grinding and a reduced capacity in the 
concentrator, the annual make-up water demand for the 5mtpa option 
has been reduced from 12 gigalitres per year to 5 gigalitres per year. 
Therefore, the scale of the initial water infrastructure is signifi cantly 
reduced. The feasibility study looked at alternatives to seawater 
desalination and has confi rmed that water for the permanent 
operations phase could be supplied to the site from:
• 
Proposed Manypeaks and Wellstead South Borefi elds water could 
be pumped to the site and treated with a brackish water treatment 
plant using reverse osmosis technology to produce Process and 
Potable Water. 
• 
Surface water run-off captured in the mine pit as well as ponds and 
drainage structures on the minesite. 
• 
Mine pit dewatering will intercept groundwater through ex-pit 
dewatering bores, and groundwater that seeps into the mine pit 
will be collected and pumped to dust suppression water storage 
dams. 
• 
Brine produced as by product from the brackish water treatment 
plant can be mixed in mine pit dewatering ponds and used for in-
pit dust suppression. 
In addition to the potential water sources above, which informed 
FS 2024, the desalination plant and the related piping to site will 
be considered in the bridging phase to allow for potential future 
production increases.  
Investigations into new dry magnetic separation methodologies may 
result in further reductions in project water demand.
POWER
FS 2024 has estimated the installed load at the mine/concentrator site 
to be 79.3 megawatts (MW).  Renewable power supplied to the mine-
site by a third party has been considered to minimise greenhouse gas 
(GHG) emissions and fossil fuel requirements. 
OPERATIONS
The project is committed to working with stakeholders and the 
community in the planning, implementation and operation of its 
projects as well as delivering possible future community benefi ts 
including employing local people to work and service the mine, 
supporting local and regional economic development and investing 
in community initiatives.  The Southdown operation will be modelled 
on Grange’s existing Savage River operation in Tasmania operating on 
a 24/7 basis for 365 days per year.

SOUTHDOWN MAGNETITE PROJECT 
PROJECT OVERVIEW
The Southdown Magnetite Project is located 90km from Albany in 
Western Australia’s Great Southern region and is an advanced project 
with more than 1.2 billion tonnes of high-quality Mineral Resources, 
including Ore Reserves of 412 million tonnes, both estimated using 
the guidelines of the JORC Code (2012 Edition).  During 2022-
2024 Grange conducted feasibility level studies, including further 
optimisation, into an alternative development option based on a 
reduction of the nominal concentrate production rate to 5mtpa with 
an initial mine life of 28 years. 
The Project is owned by Grange (100%) with a search underway to 
secure joint venture partners to develop the Project. A bridging phase 
will be undertaken in conjunction with the new investment partner 
to fi nalise the development options and progress environmental 
approvals.
There remains the potential to substantially extend the mine life with 
further study of the eastern half of the Mineral Resource once the 
project is up and running. Potential also exists to expand concentrate 
production to 10 million tonnes per year with further future capital 
investment.
Grange recognises and respects the Traditional Owners of this 
Country and their connection to the lands, waters and skies. Grange 
would like to acknowledge the support and assistance of the Wagyl 
Kaip and Southern Noongar Native Title claimants, and the Menang 
people in the development to date of the Southdown Project.
APPROVALS
All material Commonwealth and State primary approvals relating 
to the 10mtpa FS 2012 have been secured and will continue to be 
maintained in good standing, including the Cape Riche desalinated 
water supply option, and the Berth 7 land reclamation and channel 
dredging option at the Port of Albany.  
The feasibility studies have been designed within the constraints of the 
current approvals as far as is possible, but the fi nal project will require 
new or amended approvals at State and Commonwealth levels. 
The key changes relate to reduced footprint of the mine site, minor 
changes to the pipeline footprint determined from the recent studies, 
the inclusion of borefi elds as a potential water supply, approval for 
project facilities to be constructed and operated at Albany Port Berth 
5, and transhipping operations in King George Sound. These changes 
were costed to feasibility study level of accuracy and included in the 
Project base case fi nancial model.
To address these new aspects, a Revised Proposal for MS816 was 
lodged in February 2023, and a referral lodged in April 2023 for the 
transhipping operation by Southern Ports Authority. As the studies 
progressed it became apparent that further optimisation was possible 
which will result in further amendments to the project description. 
Grange has withdrawn the Revised Proposal and  SPA has withdrawn 
the related transhipping referral. Once the range of development 
options have been assessed in conjunction with the new investment 
partner, and the project defi nition fi nalised, updated referrals will be 
resubmitted for relevant changes across the project.
WORKING WITH THE COMMUNITY
Planning and preparation for the Southdown project has spanned 
almost twenty years, during which Grange has continuously 
maintained a project offi ce in Albany and has been working closely 
with key stakeholder organisations and community members.
Grange will continue to engage stakeholders and the community as 
the project progresses through the Albany Project Offi ce, information 
sessions, landowner discussions, briefi ngs and presentations and a 
range of focused communications.
KEY COMPONENTS OF THE PROJECT
The Southdown Magnetite Project is proposed to be a pit to port 
operation involving:
· 
The construction and operation of an open cut magnetite mine 
and concentrator for producing magnetite concentrate at the 
mine site, near Wellstead.
· 
A 110km underground slurry pipeline to transport the magnetite 
concentrate from the mine site to the Port of Albany.
· 
Once the slurry reaches the Port, it will be dewatered and stored in 
a storage shed ready for shipping.
· 
The recycled water from the dewatering process will be pumped 
back to the mine site in a second pipeline following the same 
alignment as the slurry pipeline.
· 
When the concentrate is ready for shipping, it will be loaded on to 
a smaller transhipping vessel (TSV) via conveyors and a shiploader 
and transported by the TSV to be loaded onto larger vessels in King 
George Sound. This process is known as transhipping.
· 
Water supply options for the construction and operation of 
the mine include groundwater from local borefi elds, or from a 
seawater desalination plant planned for Cape Riche, which already 
has environmental approvals. Electricity supply options for the 
project continue to focus on maximising access to renewable 
energy.
PROJECT OVERVIEW
GEOLOGY 
The currently defi ned Resource extends over 11 kilometres of strike, 
with variable depths ranging from 50 metres below surface in the 
west to 555 metres below surface in the east. The deposit has been 
drilled and evaluated since its initial discovery in 1983, including an 
extensive program of resource drilling during 2011 for the feasibility 
study for a total of 401 diamond drill holes for 102km of drilling.  
MINING
Mining will be undertaken by conventional bulk mining methods 
utilising drill and blast, load and haul with 365-tonne class excavator 
in backhoe confi guration and 194-tonne (payload) rigid rear dump 
trucks coupled to a run of mine (ROM) stockpile.  Ore will be trucked 
directly from the blasted faces to either direct tip into the primary 
crusher or onto the ROM stockpile to satisfy a nominal concentrate 
production rate of 5mtpa. 
The mining operation will draw heavily on Grange’s existing capability 
as Australia’s most experienced commercial producer of magnetite 
concentrate, to assist with start-up and ongoing operations.
ORE CRUSHING AND CONCENTRATION
Ore processing at the mine site consists of crushing and dry grinding 
with closed circuit dry magnetic separation, before water is added 
to facilitate a further series of magnetic separation steps to remove 
non-magnetic material, and reverse fl oatation to remove the sulphide 
mineral Pyrrhotite, which will result in a magnetite concentrate at 
around 70% iron.
Process waste (tailings) will be produced in dry and wet components, 
with the wet tailings mixed with the dry to form an Agglomerated 
Tailing and sent to a dedicated dry stack waste facility.
TRANSPORTING THE CONCENTRATE SLURRY 110 KM TO THE PORT
Final magnetite concentrate will be thickened and transported 
through a 110 km pipeline to the Port of Albany.  Once the concentrate 
reaches the Port, it will be fi ltered and stored ready for shipping. The 
excess water will be pumped back to the mine site in a return water 
pipeline, which runs parallel to the slurry pipeline. Around 85% of water 
pumped with the slurry will be returned to the mine site for re-use.

GRANGE RESOURCES ANNUAL REPORT 2024
All environmental and development approvals were received in the 
third quarter after successful completion of the submission and 
review period. 
The development of the exploration decline saw 3,000m of advance 
and the completion of the fi rst raise bore hole in the southern primary 
ventilation circuit. The pilot hole for the second raise bore hole was 
also completed and reaming was commenced. Drilling for a diamond 
hole was also commenced in the geotechnical inspection drive. A 
dewatering system has been successfully implemented from the 
open pit and is effectively controlling water for the underground 
activities. Other preparation works were undertaken to address the 
project control system, power supply requirements and engineering 
for the material handling system.  
 
CENTRE PIT EXTENSION
The Company is evaluating an extension of the Centre Pit mine 
plan as an alternative feed source to complement the North Pit 
Underground Development. Pursuing parallel development of Centre 
Pit is expected to de-risk the broader Savage River Operations and 
enhance operational fl exibility.
 
PORT LATTA IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS 
Modifi cation and improvement on Furnace 4 has been consistently 
operating without the addition of anthracite throughout the year. 
This has resulted in a reduction in our coal use at Port Latta and 
consequently a reduction in CO2-e emissions associated with 
the combustion of coal. Design work on Furnace lines 3 & 5 were 
progressed in order to apply further effi ciency improvements in the 
future.
 
FINANCIAL POSITION 
Grange’s net assets increased during the year to $1,061.3 million (31 
December 2023: $1,031.3 million). The key movements in net assets 
during the year are a result of the following:  
 
• 
An increase in fi nancial assets by $53.5 million
• 
An increase in inventories of $45.9 million
• 
An increase in property plant and equipment and mine properties 
and development of $39.1 million and $18.0 million respectively
• 
A decrease in trade and other payables $7.8 million
• 
A decrease in trade and other receivables $60.4 million
• 
A decrease in cash and cash equivalents by $38.3 million
• 
An increase in deferred tax liability by $15.5 million
• 
An increase in provisions by $18.9 million
 
STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS 
NET CASH FLOWS FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES 
Net cash infl ows from operating activities for the year were $239.9 
million (2023: infl ows $267.1 million), decreased compared to prior 
year mainly due to lower prices achieved, lower quantities sold and 
higher operating costs compared to the previous year. 
NET CASH FLOWS FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES 
Net cash outfl ows from investing activities for the period were 
$253.4 million (2023: outfl ows $241.9 million), principally related to 
expenditures for mine properties and development ($113.7 million), 
property, plant and equipment of ($86.1 million) and payments for 
term deposits ($53.8 million).
NET CASH FLOWS FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES 
Net cash outfl ows from fi nancing activities for the period were $30.7 
million (2023 outfl ow: $25.2 million), principally related to the payment 
of 2023 fi nal dividend and 2024 interim dividend ($28.9 million), and 
repayment of lease liabilities ($1.8 million).
ESG REPORTING AND INITIATIVES 
Grange published its baseline Environmental, Social, and Governance 
(ESG) report with disclosures on 21 core metrics set by the World 
Economic Forum (WEF) in its standardised and globally recognised 
Stakeholder Capitalism Metrics ESG framework.
This new global environment is challenging the traditional 
expectations of corporations and redirecting investment capital. 
Grange is committed to aligning the business, where applicable, 
to the sustainable development goals that provide a roadmap to 
sustainability and resilience. 
The baseline report demonstrates Grange’s commitment to aligning 
its business practices, where applicable, with the Sustainable 
Development Goals, that offer guidance on sustainability and 
resilience. The report describes the progress Grange has made 
against the four pillars of the framework for Governance, Planet, 
People and Prosperity. 
Most notably, Grange has developed a road map to reduce emissions. 
This will involve the reduction in energy used per tonne of product; 
upgrades to furnaces; energy effi ciency in the pellet plant; application 
of technology and electric vehicles in the mining operation; and 
alternative fuel sources.
Management reaffi rms the Company’s decarbonisation initiatives and 
continues to make forward progress in the pursuit of decarbonisation. 
With a review of recent project realignment and funding requirements 
for the electric underground mine and furnace effi ciency projects, the 
time required to complete our major projects has been extended.  We 
remain committed to maintaining our current emissions reduction 
targets:
•  CO2-e emission target reduction of 50% by 2030 
•  Target of Zero CO2-e (Scope 1 and 2) emissions by 2035
Supporting projects, including 3 kms of the underground development 
and the operational improvements to Furnace 4 which continues to 
operate successfully without the addition of anthracite, were achieved 
in 2024. Detailed design work and engineering is progressing on the 
modifi cations required for effi ciency improvements to the other 
furnace lines. 
 
SOUTHDOWN MAGNETITE PROJECT 
The Southdown Magnetite Project, situated 90km from the city 
of Albany in Western Australia, is an advanced project with over 1.2 
billion tonnes of high-quality resource and access to established 
infrastructure. 
During the year, the review of the Defi nitive Feasibility Study for the 
Southdown Magnetite Project continued along with the search for 
equity investors. Once the appropriate partners have joined the 
Project, a bridging study phase will be undertaken, and a fi nal 
project description and scope will be produced. This will

excludes royalties, sustaining capital, depreciation and amortisation costs.
Mining activities have continued to focus on the cutbacks in both 
North Pit and Centre Pit. Ore from the main ore zone in Centre Pit 
has been delivered throughout the year. This has been blended 
with existing stockpiles to sustain production and improve pellet 
quality. The cutback on the east wall of North Pit continues with the 
implementation of the refi ned pit design. Centre Pit is delivering more 
higher-grade ore than planned, with the head grade increasing as we 
progress deeper into the pit. This has supported strong production 
results from the concentrator. Wall instability in the south end of 
Centre Pit is being carefully monitored. This is a known and managed 
slope that has experienced some movement through the winter 
months and a step in from the highwall has been implemented to 
ensure continued ore development. The current mining of Centre Pit 
and North Pit will progress further in 2025.
NORTH PIT UNDERGROUND
DEVELOPMENT PROJECT 
The Company completed the Defi nitive Feasibility Study (DFS) for 
underground mining below North Pit and its integration with the 
company’s current open-cut mine. The fi ndings of the DFS were 
integrated with the transition from open-cut mining to demonstrate 
the effective implementation of the underground project alongside 
the current operation (see market release dated 28 February 2024).

and the total emissions reported are publicly available.  
RENEWABLE ENERGY (ELECTRICITY) ACT 2000 
In recognition that the Renewable Energy Targets scheme may 
increase costs to Companies that carry on Emissions Intensive 
Trade Exposed (EITE) activities, the exemption provisions under 
the Renewable Energy (Electricity) Act 2000 as amended allow a 
prescribed person to apply for an exemption certifi cate in relation to 
the electricity supplied to an EITE activity carried on at a site. Subject 
to agreement from the prescribed person an exemption certifi cate 
may be traded to the liable entity for the electricity supplied, and 
provides the liable entity with exemption from liability for a certain 
amount of megawatt-hours of electricity in the given calendar year. 
Grange has received exemption certifi cates under this scheme.
CLIMATE CHANGE RISK AND 
OPPORTUNITIES
In FY2024, Grange Resources remains steadfast in its commitment 
to identifying, mitigating, and managing climate-related risks 
and opportunities, reinforcing its dedication to sustainability and 
stakeholder transparency. This disclosure draws on the insights 
provided in FY2023 while outlining our roadmap for enhanced 
compliance with the Australian Accounting Standards Board’s (AASB) 
S2 Climate-Related Disclosures by FY2025.
KEY CLIMATE RISKS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Building on the risks disclosed in FY2023, the Group has continued 
to assess climate-related risks and opportunities. While further risks 
are still being evaluated, the following is a non-exhaustive collection 
of physical and transition risks that have already been identifi ed as 
potentially material to our operations and fi nancial performance.
PHYSICAL RISKS
Changes in weather patterns may lead to:
• 
Concentrated rainfall events
• 
Reduced rainfall
• 
Rising sea levels
• 
Higher maximum and lower minimum temperatures
These changes may result in operational impacts such as:
• 
Delays in ship loading, leading to demurrage costs
• 
Damage to assets
• 
Restricted access to Savage River, affecting the supply of parts and 
workforce mobility
• 
Reduced access to groundwater
• 
Risks to on-site electrical infrastructure
• 
Delays in mining operations
TRANSITION RISKS
• 
Policy and legal risks: Stricter government regulations on carbon 
emissions may increase energy costs or limit energy availability. 
In particular, the introduction of the Safeguard Mechanism could 
drive up costs if emissions reductions are delayed or not achieved.
• 
Market and Technology Risk: Shifting consumer demand for low-
carbon goods and services may impact our market position. One 
notable example is the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism 
(CBAM) which could restrict access to key markets. 
The Group acknowledges the challenges and opportunities 
presented by the global transition to a low-carbon economy. Key 
initiatives to position Grange as a leader in low-carbon emissions 
include reducing CO₂ emissions per tonne of pellet produced and 
exploring opportunities in the emerging “Green Steel” market.
FY2024 PROGRESS AND FY2025 ROADMAP
The Group has initiated steps to strengthen its governance and risk 
assessment processes while preparing for full compliance with AASB 
S2 standards by FY2025. These initiatives include:
• 
Governance Enhancements: Formalising oversight mechanisms 
for climate-related risks at the executive and board levels.
• 
Risk and Opportunity Evaluation: Developing a structured 
approach to assess material climate-related risks across our 
operations, including physical and transition risks.
• 
Scenario Analysis: Beginning work on scenario analysis to evaluate 
potential fi nancial and operational impacts under different climate 
scenarios.
• 
Mitigation and Adaption Strategies: Identifying and prioritising 
initiatives to mitigate identifi ed risks and leverage opportunities to 
support long-term sustainability and business continuity.
To support in the delivery of these initiatives, the Group has engaged 
external consultants to support a comprehensive evaluation to be 
completed in FY2025. This evaluation will enable Grange to provide 
a robust, detailed climate risk disclosure in alignment with AASB S2 
requirements.

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION
The mining and exploration tenements held by the Group contain 
environmental requirements and conditions that the Group must 
comply with. These conditions and regulations cover environmental 
aspects such as acid mine drainage management, river water quality, 
the management of the storage of hazardous materials and mine site 
rehabilitation, etc.
The Group is subject to signifi cant environmental legislation and 
regulation in respect of its mining, processing and exploration 
activities as set out below: 
SAVAGE RIVER AND PORT LATTA OPERATIONS
The Group obtained approvals to operate in 1996 and 1997 under 
the Land Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993 (LUPA) and the 
Environmental Management and Pollution Control Act 1994 (EMPCA) 
as well as the Goldamere Agreement Act 1996 and Mineral Resources 
Development Act 1995. The original land use permit conditions 
for Savage River and Port Latta are contained in Environmental 
Protection Notices 248/2 and 302/2 respectively. Environmental 
Management Plans were submitted for Savage River and Port Latta 
on 21 December 2010 and most recently updated and submitted to 
EPA on 18 December 2024. The extension of the project’s life was 
approved by the Department of Tourism, Arts and the Environment 
on 12 March 2007 and together with the Goldamere Agreement Act 
1996 and the environmental permits, is the basis for the management 
of all environmental aspects of the mining leases. The Group has been 
relieved of any environmental obligation in relation to contamination, 
pollutants or pollution caused by operations prior to the date of the 
Goldamere Agreement Act (Royal Ascent received 16 December 
1996). Grange received planning approval from the Waratah Wynyard 
Council and the Tasmanian Environment Protection Authority for the 
construction of South Deposit Tailings Storage Facility in March 2014 
under PCE 8808, as well as federal approval under the Environment 
Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 in April 2014 under 
EPBC approval 6393. South Deposit cutback was approved in August 
2014 but is now largely regulated under the Centre Pit Expansion 
and South Deposit Backfi ll Dump through DA 216/2021 and Permit 
Conditions-Environmental No. 10995. In January 2020, approval was 
granted under Environment Protection Notice 10006/2 for the North 
Pit Underground exploration decline. On 6 August 2024 the Group 
also received approval for North Pit Underground as an operational 
underground mine, under Permit Conditions-Environmental No. 
12021.
SOUTHDOWN MAGNETITE PROJECT
There have been no activities on the Southdown Magnetite Project 
which would cause a breach of environmental legislation.

GRANGE RESOURCES ANNUAL REPORT 2024
• 
acceptable to shareholders, transparent and easily understood; 
• 
competitive and reasonable, enabling the company to attract 
and retain key talents who share the same values with Grange 
Resources; and
• 
aligned to the Company’s strategic and business objectives and 
the creation of shareholder value. 
Using external remuneration sector comparative data, the Group 
has structured an executive remuneration framework that is market 
competitive and complementary to the reward strategy of the 
organisation. The framework is reviewed regularly along with the 
remuneration strategy review. 
The framework provides a mix of fi xed and variable pay, and a blend of 
short and long term incentives detailed as follows:  
FIXED REMUNERATION 
Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Remuneration and 
Nomination Committee. The process consists of a review of Group 
and individual performance, relevant comparative remuneration 
externally and internally and, where appropriate, external advice on 
policies and practices.  
Executives are given the opportunity to receive their fi xed (primary) 
remuneration in a variety of forms including cash and fringe benefi ts. 
It is intended that the manner of payment chosen is optimal for the 
recipient without creating any undue cost for the Group. 
There are no guaranteed fi xed pay increases included in any 
executives’ contracts. 
VARIABLE REMUNERATION – SHORT TERM INCENTIVE (“STI”)  
The objective of the STI is to link the achievement of the Company’s 
annual operational targets (usually refl ected in the approved budgets) 
and an individual’s personal targets with the remuneration received 
by selected executive directors and senior employees responsible 
for meeting those targets. Payments are made as a cash incentive 
payable after the fi nancial statements have been audited and released 
to the Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”). 50% of the STI relates to 
the achievement of company performance goals and 50% relates to 
the attainment of agreed personal performance goals.  
VARIABLE REMUNERATION - LONG TERM INCENTIVE (“LTI”)  
a) Deferred Cash  
A 3-year deferred cash long term incentive program applicable to 
H Zhao, S Phan, and B Maynard commenced in 2019 with the fi nal 
tranche paid in 2024.  This long-term incentive program was replaced 
by a share-based payment scheme in 2022.
A 3-year deferred cash long term incentive started in 2023 for C Xu 
and G Bramich with the fi nal tranche to be paid in 2026. 
The deferred cash scheme is to reward selected executive directors 
and senior employees with a cash payment which is linked to the 
Company satisfying performance hurdles and subject to ongoing 
employment with Grange. The deferred cash component is 
determined by measuring the Company’s progress made on: 
• 
Development of mineral assets (weighting 35%) 
• 
Mine development (weighting 20%)
• 
Downstream process improvement (weighting 15%) 
• 
Financial returns (weighting 20%) 
• 
Safety and sustainability (weighting 10%) 
The deferred cash component is determined based on the Company’s 
performance for the year ended 31 December, with 33.3% payable on 
31 December the fi rst following year, 33.3% payable on 31 December 
the second following year, and the balance payable on the following 
31 December (i.e. 3 years after the relevant calculation date). Payment 
of deferred cash is subject to continuing employment with Grange at 
the scheduled date of the payment.
b) Rights to Grange Shares
The Company granted performance rights in 2022 and 2023 to three 
key management personnel and in 2024 to fi ve key management 
personnel, in three tranches to be settled by issuance of shares. Each 
right is entitled to one equity share with a vesting date of 31 December 
2024 for performance rights granted in 2022. 
Tranche 1 (with a weighting of 35%), has a total shareholder return 
(TSR) hurdle, tranche 2 (35% weighting) has a return on equity (ROE) 
hurdle and tranche 3 (30% weighting) has hurdles relating to non-
market business objectives.

(v) Non-executive director remuneration policy 
Fees and payments to Non-executive Directors refl ect the 
responsibilities and demands made on them. Non-executive Directors’ 
fees and payments are reviewed periodically by the Board. The Board 
also considers comparative market data and if required the advice 
of independent remuneration consultants to ensure Non-executive 
Directors’ fees and payments are appropriate and in line with the 
market. The Chairperson’s fees are determined independently to the 
fees of Non-executive Directors based on comparative roles in the 
external market.  
The Chairperson’s remuneration is inclusive of committee fees 
while other Non-executive Directors who chair a Committee receive 
additional yearly fees. The Deputy Chairperson is also entitled to 
receive an additional yearly fee. The current base fees were reviewed 
with effect from 1 June 2021.
Non-executive Directors’ fees are determined within an aggregate 
Directors’ fee pool limit, which is periodically reviewed for adequacy. 
Any increase to the aggregate Directors’ fee pool is submitted to 
shareholders for approval. The maximum currently stands at $800,000 
per annum and was approved by shareholders at the Annual General 
Meeting on 26 November 2010. Non-executive Directors do not 
receive performance-based pay.

GRANGE RESOURCES ANNUAL REPORT 2024
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in 
foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate as at the date 
of the initial transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in 
a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date 
when the fair value was determined. 
(iii) Group companies 
The results and fi nancial position of all the Group entities (none of 
which has the currency of a hyperinfl ationary economy) that have 
a functional currency different from the presentation currency are 
translated into the presentation currency as follows: 
• 
assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are 
translated at the closing rate at the date of that balance sheet, 
• 
income and expenses for each income statement are translated 
at average exchange rates (unless this is not a reasonable 
approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on 
the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are 
translated at the dates of the   transactions), and
• 
all resulting exchange differences are recognised in other 
comprehensive income.
On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation 
of any net investment in foreign entities, and of borrowings and other 
fi nancial instruments designated as hedges of such investments, 
are recognised in other comprehensive income. When a foreign 
operation is sold or any borrowings forming part of the net investment 
are repaid, a proportionate share of such exchange differences are 
reclassifi ed to the income statement, as part of the gain or loss on sale 
where applicable. Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the 
acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the 
foreign entities and translated at the closing rate.
(E) BUSINESS COMBINATIONS 
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all 
business combinations, regardless of whether equity instruments 
or other assets are acquired. The consideration transferred for the 
acquisition of a subsidiary comprises the 
• 
fair values of the assets transferred
• 
liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquired business
• 
equity interests issued by the Group
• 
fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent 
consideration arrangement, and
• 
fair value of any pre-existing equity interest in subsidiary
Identifi able assets acquired, and liabilities and contingent liabilities 
assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, 
measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group 
recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity on 
an acquisition-by-acquisition basis either at fair value or at the non-
controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquired entity’s net 
identifi able assets. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. 
The excess of the
• 
Consideration transferred,
• 
amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity, and
• 
acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the 
acquired entity
over the fair value of the net identifi able assets acquired is recorded 
as goodwill. If those amounts are less than the fair value of the net 
identifi able assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is 
recognised directly in profi t or loss as a bargain purchase. Where 
settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts 
payable in the future are discounted to their present value as at the 
date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entity’s incremental 
borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be 
obtained from an independent fi nancier under comparable terms 
and conditions.
Contingent consideration is classifi ed either as equity or a fi nancial 
liability. Amounts classifi ed as a fi nancial liability are subsequently 
remeasured to fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profi t 
or loss.
If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date 
carrying value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the 
acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date. Any gains 
or losses arising from such remeasurement are recognised in profi t 
or loss.
(F) REVENUE RECOGNITION AND OTHER INCOME
Revenue is recognised for the major business transactions as follows: 
Sale of ore and the related freight revenue
Sales revenue is recognised on individual sales when control transfers 
to the customer. In most instances, control passes and sales revenue 
is recognised when the product is delivered to the vessel on which 
it will be transported. There may be circumstances when judgment 
is required when recognising revenue based on the fi ve-step model 
below:
(i)
Identify the contract(s) with a customer
(ii)
Identify the performance obligations in the contact 
(iii)
Determine the transaction price 
(iv)
Allocate the transaction price to the performance of 
obligations in the contract.
(v)
Recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfi es the 
performance obligation. 
The Group sells a portion of its product on Cost and Freight (CFR). 
For CFR contracts passes and sales revenue is recognised when the 
product is delivered to the vessel on which it will be transported. 
Using the 5-step model above, the Group has determined that 
freight services are a separate performance obligation. Therefore, the 
revenue for shipping services is recognised as the Group satisfi es the 
performance obligation over time rather than at point when product 
is transferred to the vessel on which the product will be shipped.
Typically, the Group has a right to payment at the point that control of 
the goods passes including a right, where applicable, to payment for 
provisionally priced products and unperformed freight services. Cash 
received before control passes is recognised as a contract liability. 
The amount of consideration does not contain a signifi cant fi nancing 
component as payment terms are less than one year.
Interest income 
Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis using the 
effective interest method.
Distribution income 
Distribution income from short term managed funds is recognised 
when the right to receive the income has been established.  
(G) LEASES 
The Group leases offi ce spaces, mobile radars, forklifts, and motor 
vehicles with lease terms between 1 to 5 years but may have 
extension options as described below. Lease terms are negotiated on 
an individual basis and contain a wide range of different terms and 
conditions. 
Leases are recognised as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding 
liability at the date at which the leased asset is available for use by 
the Group. Each lease payment is discounted using the Group’s 
incremental borrowing rate and is allocated between the

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1.
SUMMARY OF MATERIAL
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting policies that are material to the Group are set out 
below. The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of 
the previous fi nancial year, unless otherwise stated.
(A) BASIS OF PREPARATION
This general purpose fi nancial report has been prepared in accordance 
with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by 
the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 
2001. Grange Resources Limited is a for-profi t entity for the purpose 
of preparing the fi nancial statements.
Compliance with IFRS 
The consolidated fi nancial statements of the Grange Resources 
Limited Group also comply with International Financial Reporting 
Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards 
Board (IASB).
Historical cost convention 
These fi nancial statements have been prepared under the historical 
costs convention, except for certain assets which, as noted, are at fair 
value. 
New and amended standards adopted by the Group
The Group has applied the following standards and amendments for 
the fi rst time for their annual reporting period commencing 1 January 
2024:  
• 
AASB 2020-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – 
Classifi cation of Liabilities as Current or Non-current [AASB 101] 
• 
AASB 2022-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – 
Non-current Liabilities with Covenants [AASB 101]
• 
AASB 2022-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – 
Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback [AASB 16]; and
• 
AASB 2023-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – 
Supplier Finance Arrangements [AASB 7 & AASB 107]
The amendments listed above did not have any impact on the 
amounts recognised in prior periods and are not expected to 
signifi cantly affect the current or future periods.  
New standards and interpretations not yet adopted
Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been 
published that are not mandatory for 31 December 2024 reporting 
periods and have not been early adopted by the Group. Management 
is currently assessing the detailed implications of applying the new 
standard on the Group’s consolidated fi nancial statements.
Comparative fi gures 
Where necessary, comparative fi gures have been adjusted to conform 
to changes in the presentation in the current period.
Critical accounting estimates
The preparation of fi nancial 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 signifi cant 
to the fi nancial statements, are disclosed in note 4.  
(B) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
(i) Subsidiaries
The consolidated fi nancial statements incorporate the assets and 
liabilities of all subsidiaries of Grange Resources Limited as at 31 
December 2024 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then 
ended. Grange Resources Limited and its subsidiaries together are 
referred to in this fi nancial report as the Group or the consolidated 
entity.
Subsidiaries are those entities over which the Group has control. The 
Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights 
to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the 
ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities 
of the entity. 
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is 
transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that 
control ceases. Details of subsidiaries are set out in note 32. 
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business 
combinations by the Group (refer to note 1(e)).
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on 
transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised 
losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence 
of the impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies 
of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure 
consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
 (ii) Joint arrangements 
Joint operations 
The Group recognises its direct right to the assets, liabilities, revenues 
and expenses of joint operations and its share of any jointly held or 
incurred assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These have been 
incorporated in the fi nancial statements under the appropriate 
headings. Details of the joint operations are set out in note 33.  
(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 identifi ed as the Chief Executive Offi cer. 
Refer to note 5 for further information on segment descriptions.  
(D) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
(i) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the fi nancial statements of each of the Group’s 
entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic 
environment in which the entity operates (‘the functional currency’). 
The consolidated fi nancial statements are presented in Australian 
dollars, which is Grange Resources Limited’s functional and 
presentation currency. 
(ii) Transactions and balances 
All foreign currency transactions during the fi nancial period are 
translated into the functional currency using the exchange rate 
prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains 
and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and 
from the translation at period end exchange rates of monetary assets 
and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the 
profi t and loss, except when they are deferred in equity as qualifying 
cash fl ow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges or are 
attributable to part of the net investment in a foreign operation.

GRANGE RESOURCES ANNUAL REPORT 2024
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation 
authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the balance 
sheet. 
Cash fl ows are included in the consolidated statement of cash fl ows 
on a gross basis and the GST component of cash fl ows arising from 
investing and fi nancing activities, which is recoverable from, or 
payable to, the taxation authority, are presented as operating cash 
fl ows.  
Commitments and contingencies are presented net of the amount of 
GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority. 
(M) PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT 
Land and buildings and plant and equipment are measured at cost 
less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation, amortisation 
or impairment in value. Cost includes expenditure that is directly 
attributable to the acquisition of the item. In the event that all or part 
of the purchase consideration is deferred, cost is determined by 
discounting the amounts payable in the future to their present value 
as at the date of acquisition. 
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or 
recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable 
that future economic benefi ts associated with the item will fl ow to 
the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The 
carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset 
is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance 
are charged to the income statement during the reporting period in 
which they are incurred.
Land is not depreciated. Assets under construction are measured at 
cost and are not depreciated until they are ready and available for 
use. Depreciation on assets is calculated using either a straight-line 
or diminishing value method to allocate the cost, net of their residual 
values, over the estimated useful lives or the life of the mine, whichever 
is shorter. Leasehold improvements and certain leased plant and 
equipment are depreciated over the shorter lease term. 
Other non-mine plant and equipment typically has the following 
estimated useful lives: 
Buildings
10 to 17 years
Plant and Equipment
 4 to 17 years
Computer Equipment
 3 to 5 years
The assets residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are 
reviewed and adjusted if appropriate, at each fi nancial period end.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon 
disposal or when no further economic benefi ts are expected from its 
use or disposal.
Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as 
the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying 
amount of the asset) is included in the income statement in the period 
the asset is derecognised. 
The carrying value of property, plant and equipment is assessed 
annually for impairment in accordance with note 1(q). 
(N) EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION
Exploration and evaluation expenditure comprise costs which are 
directly attributable to: 
• 
research and analysing exploration data
• 
conducting geological studies, exploratory drilling and sampling
• 
examining and testing extraction and treatment methods
• 
compiling pre-feasibility and defi nitive feasibility studies
 
Exploration and evaluation expenditure also include the costs 
incurred in acquiring rights, the entry premiums paid to gain access 
to areas of interest and amounts payable to third parties to acquire 
interests in existing projects. 
Exploration and evaluation expenditure is charged against profi t and 
loss as incurred; except for expenditure incurred after a decision to 
proceed to development is made, in which case the expenditure is 
capitalised as an asset. 
(O) MINE PROPERTIES AND DEVELOPMENT 
Mine properties and development represent the accumulation of all 
exploration, evaluation and development expenditure incurred by, not 
on behalf of, the entity in relation to areas of interest in which mining 
of a mineral resource has commenced. 
Where further development expenditure is incurred in respect of 
a production property after the commencement of production, 
such expenditure is carried forward as part of the cost of that 
production property only when substantial future economic benefi ts 
arise, otherwise such expenditure is classifi ed as part of the cost of 
production. 
Costs on production properties in which the Group has an interest 
are amortised over the life of the area of interest to which such costs 
relate on the production output basis. Changes to the life of the area 
of interest are accounted for prospectively.
The carrying value of each mine property and development are 
assessed annually for impairment in accordance with note 1(q).
(P) DEFERRED STRIPPING COSTS 
Stripping (i.e. overburden and other waste removal) costs incurred 
in the production phase of a surface mine are capitalised to the 
extent that they improve access to an identifi ed component of the 
ore body and are subsequently amortised on a systematic basis over 
the expected useful life of the identifi ed component of the ore body. 
Capitalised stripping costs are disclosed as a component of Mine 
Properties and Development.
Components of an ore body are determined with reference to life 
of mine plans and take account of factors such as the geographical 
separation of mining locations and/or the economic status of mine 
development decisions.
Capitalised stripping costs are initially measured at cost and represent 
an accumulation of costs directly incurred in performing the stripping 
activity that improves access to the identifi ed component of the ore 
body, plus an allocation of directly attributable overhead costs. The 
amount of stripping costs deferred is based on a relevant production 
measure which uses a ratio obtained by dividing the tonnage of waste 
mined by the quantity of ore mined for an identifi ed component of 
the ore body. Stripping costs incurred in the period for an identifi ed 
component of the ore body are deferred to the extent that the current 
period ratio exceeds the expected ratio for the life of the identifi ed 
component of the ore body. Such deferred costs are then charged 
against the income statement on a systematic units of production 
basis over the expected useful life of an identifi ed component of the 
ore body. 
Changes to the life of mine plan, identifi ed components of an ore 
body, stripping ratios, units of production and expected useful life are 
accounted for prospectively. 
Deferred stripping costs form part of the total investment in a 
cash generating unit, which is reviewed for impairment if events or 
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not 
be recoverable.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
liability and fi nance cost. The fi nance cost is charged to profi t or loss 
over the lease period as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest 
on the remaining balance of the liability for each period – refer to note 
11. The right of use asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s 
useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. 
Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a 
present value basis. Lease payments included in the measure of the 
lease liability comprise: 
• 
fi xed payments less any lease incentives 
• 
variable lease payments that are based on an index or rate
• 
amounts expected to be payable under residual value guarantees 
(H) CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS 
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, deposits held 
at call with fi nancial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid 
investments with original maturities of three months or less that are 
readily convertible to amounts of cash and which are subject to an 
insignifi cant risk of changes in value. Bank overdrafts are shown within 
borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet. 
(I) TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES
Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently 
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less 
loss allowance.
As permitted by AASB 9, the Group applies the ‘simplifi ed approach’ 
to trade receivable balances and the ‘general approach’ to all 
other fi nancial assets. The simplifi ed approach requires expected 
lifetime credit losses to be recognised from initial recognition of 
the receivables. The general approach incorporates a review for any 
signifi cant increase in counterparty credit risk since inception.
The expected credit losses (ECL) review include assumptions about 
the risk of default and expected credit loss rates. In determining the 
recoverability of a trade or other receivable using the ECL model, the 
Group performs a risk analysis considering the type and age of the 
outstanding receivables, the creditworthiness of the counterparty, 
contract provisions, letter of credit and timing of payment.  
(J) INVENTORIES 
Raw materials and stores, ore stockpiles, work in progress and fi nished 
goods are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost 
is determined primarily on the basis of weighted average costs and 
comprises of the cost of direct materials and the costs of production 
which include: 
• 
labour costs, materials and contractor expenses which are directly 
attributable to the extraction and processing of ore;
• 
depreciation of property, plant and equipment used in the 
extraction and processing of ore; and
• 
production overheads directly attributable to the extraction and 
processing of ore
Stockpiles represent ore that has been extracted and is available for 
further processing. If there is signifi cant uncertainty as to when the 
stockpiled ore will be processed it is expensed as incurred. Where 
the future processing of the ore can be predicted with confi dence 
because it exceeds the mine’s cut-off grade, it is valued at the lower 
of cost and net realisable value. Work in progress inventory includes 
partly processed material. Quantities are assessed primarily through 
surveys and assays.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary 
course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the 
estimated costs necessary to make the sale. 
 
(K) INCOME TAX 
The income tax expense or benefi t for the period is the tax payable 
on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable 
income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred 
tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to 
unused tax losses.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax 
laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting 
period in the countries where the Group’s subsidiaries operate 
and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates 
positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which 
applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes 
provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be 
paid to the tax authorities.
Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on 
temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and 
liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated fi nancial 
statements. However, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if they 
arise from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred income tax is 
also not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or 
liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the 
time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profi t 
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. 
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. In assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets, the 
Group relies on the same forecast assumptions used elsewhere in 
the fi nancial statements and in other management reports, which, 
among other things, refl ect the potential impact of climate-related 
development on the business, such as increased cost of production 
as a result of measures to reduce carbon emission.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary 
differences between the carrying amount and the 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. 
Grange Resources Limited and its wholly-owned Australian controlled 
entities have implemented the tax consolidation legislation. As a 
consequence, Grange Resources Limited and its subsidiaries are 
taxed as a single entity and the deferred tax assets and liabilities of the 
Group are set off in the consolidated fi nancial statements.
(L) GOODS AND SERVICES TAX (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of 
GST except: 
• 
when GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not 
recoverable from taxation authority, in which case the GST is 
recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part 
of the expense item as applicable; and
• 
receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of

GRANGE RESOURCES ANNUAL REPORT 2024
(W) PROVISIONS 
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation, 
it is probable that there will be a future sacrifi ce of economic benefi ts 
and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. 
When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be recovered 
from a third party, for example under an insurance contract, the 
receivable is recognised as a separate asset but only when the 
reimbursement is virtually certain, and it can be measured reliably. 
The expense relating to any provision is presented in the income 
statement net of any reimbursement. 
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are 
discounted using a pre-tax rate that refl ects the current market 
assessment of the time value of money. Where this is the case, its 
carrying amount is the present value of these estimated future cash 
fl ows. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to 
the passage of time is recognised as a fi nance cost.
The impact of climate-related matters on remediation of sites is 
considered with determining the decommissioning liability. The 
Group also constantly monitors new government legislation in 
relation to climate-related matters. At the current time, no climate 
related matters and legislation that is expected to have a material 
impact on the Group’s decommissioning liability.
Decommissioning and restoration 
Decommissioning and restoration provisions include the dismantling 
and demolition of infrastructure and the removal of residual materials 
and remediation of disturbed areas. The provision is recognised 
in the accounting period when the obligation arising from the 
related disturbance occurs, whether this occurs during the mine 
development or during the production phase, based on the net 
present value of estimated future costs. The costs are estimated on 
the basis of a closure plan. The cost estimates are calculated annually 
during the life of the operation to refl ect known developments and 
are subject to formal review at regular intervals. 
The amortisation or ‘unwinding’ of the discount applied in 
establishing the net present value of provisions is charged to the 
income statement in each accounting period. The amortisation of the 
discount is shown as a fi nancing cost, rather than as an operating cost. 
Other movements in the provisions for close down and restoration 
costs, including those resulting from new disturbance, updated cost 
estimates, changes to the lives of operations and revisions to discount 
rates are capitalised within mine properties and development, to the 
extent that any amount of deduction does not exceed the carrying 
amount of the asset. Any deduction in excess of the carrying amount 
is recognised in the income statement immediately. If an adjustment 
results in an addition to the cost of the related asset, consideration 
will be given to whether an indication of impairment exists, and the 
impairment policy will apply. These costs are then depreciated over 
the life of the area of interest to which they relate. 
(X) EMPLOYEE ENTITLEMENTS 
Wages, salaries and sick leave 
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefi ts 
and accumulating sick leave expected to be settled within 12 months 
of the reporting date are recognised in other payables in respect of 
employees’ services up to the reporting date and are measured at the 
amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
Annual leave 
Liabilities for annual leave expected to be settled within 12 months 
of the reporting date are recognised in the provision for employee 
benefi ts in respect of employees’ services up to the reporting date 
and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the 
liabilities are settled.
Long service leave 
The liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for 
employee benefi ts and measured as the present value of expected 
future payments to be made in respect of services provided by 
employees up to the reporting date 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 reporting 
date on corporate bonds with terms to maturity and currency that 
match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outfl ows.
Defi ned contribution superannuation funds
Contributions to defi ned contribution funds are recognised as an 
expense in the income statement as they become payable.
 Share-based payments
Senior Executives of the Group receive remuneration in the form 
of share-based payments, whereby employees render services in 
exchange for equity instruments (equity-settled transactions). 
The fair value of performance rights granted is recognised as an 
employee benefi ts expense with a corresponding increase in equity. 
The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the 
fair value of the options granted.
• 
including any market performance conditions 
• 
excluding the impact of any service and non-market performance 
vesting conditions 
• 
including the impact of any non-vesting conditions 
The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the 
period over which all of the specifi ed vesting conditions are to be 
satisfi ed. At the end of each period, the entity revises its estimates of 
the number of performance rights that are expected to vest based 
on the non-market vesting and service conditions. It recognises the 
impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in profi t or loss, with 
a corresponding adjustment to equity. 
The dilutive effect of outstanding performance rights is refl ected as 
additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per 
share (further details are given in note 35).
(Y) CONTRIBUTED EQUITY 
Ordinary share capital is recognised at the fair value of the 
consideration received by the Company. Any transaction costs arising 
on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a 
reduction, net of tax, of the share proceeds received. 
(Z) DIVIDENDS 
Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being 
appropriately authorised and no longer at the discretion of the entity, 
on or before the end of the fi nancial period but not distributed at 
balance date. 
(AA) EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS) 
Basic earnings per share 
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing:  
• 
the profi t attributable to equity holders of the Company, excluding 
any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares;
• 
by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding 
during the fi nancial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary 
shares issued during the period and excluding treasury shares.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Q) IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS 
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is 
any indication that an asset, including capitalised development 
expenditure, may be impaired. Where an indicator of impairment 
exists, the Group makes a formal estimate of the recoverable amount. 
Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable 
amount the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its 
recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the income 
statement. 
Recoverable amount is the greater of 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 identifi able 
cash infl ows which are largely independent of the cash infl ows from 
other assets or groups of assets (cash generating units). 
Where there is no binding sale agreement or active market, fair value 
less costs of disposal is based on the best information available to 
refl ect the amount the Group could receive for the cash generating 
unit in an arm’s length transaction. In assessing fair value, the estimated 
future cash fl ows are discounted to their present value using a post-
tax discount rate that refl ects current market assessments of the time 
value of money and the risks specifi c to the asset. 
An assessment is also made at each reporting date as to whether 
there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses 
may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, 
the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised 
impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the 
estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since 
the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the 
carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. 
That increased amount cannot exceed the pre-impairment value, 
adjusted for any depreciation that would have been recognised on 
the asset had the initial impairment loss not occurred. Such reversal is 
recognised in profi t or loss. 
After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future 
periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any 
residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life. 
The Group assesses where climate risks could have a signifi cant 
impact, such as the introduction of emission reduction legislation that 
may increase mining and production costs. At present, albeit climate-
related risks should be factored into the commodity price, this has no 
direct impact on the Group’s asset recoverable value.
(R) INVESTMENTS AND OTHER FINANCIAL ASSETS 
The Group’s other fi nancial assets consist of: 
• 
Term deposits with maturity of over three months from the date of 
acquisition.
• 
Derivatives
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 the end of each reporting period. The accounting for 
subsequent changes in fair value depends on whether the derivative 
is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the 
item being hedged. Changes in the fair value of any derivative 
instrument that does not qualify for hedge accounting are recognised 
immediately in profi t or loss and are included in other income or other 
expenses. 
The full fair value of a hedging derivative is classifi ed as a non-current 
asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is 
more than 12 months; it is classifi ed as a current asset or liability when 
the remaining maturity of the hedged item is less than 12 months. 
 
(S) ORE RESERVES
The Company estimates its mineral resources and ore reserves 
based on information compiled by Competent Persons as defi ned in 
accordance with the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration 
Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves of December 2012 
(the JORC 2012 code). Reserves, and certain mineral resources 
determined in this way, are used in the calculation of depreciation, 
amortisation and impairment charges, the assessment of life of mine 
stripping ratios and for forecasting the timing of the payment of close 
down and restoration costs. 
In assessing the life of a mine for accounting purposes, mineral 
resources are only taken into account where there is a high degree of 
confi dence of economic extraction. 
(T) TRADE AND OTHER PAYABLES 
Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised cost and 
represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group 
prior to the end of the fi nancial period that are unpaid. Trade payables 
and other payables arise when the Group becomes obliged to make 
future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and 
services. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 
days of recognition. 
(U) BORROWINGS 
All borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the 
consideration received, less transaction costs. After initial recognition, 
borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Fees paid 
on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction 
costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of 
the facility will be drawn down. In this case the fee is deferred until 
the draw down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is 
probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is 
capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over 
the period of the facility to which it relates.
Borrowings are removed from the balance sheet when the obligation 
specifi ed in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. 
Borrowings are classifi ed as current liabilities unless the Group has 
an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 
months after the reporting date. 
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs incurred for the construction of any qualifying asset 
are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete 
and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Other borrowing 
costs are expensed in the period which they are incurred. 
(V) GOVERNMENT GRANTS
Government grants are recognised where there is reasonable 
assurance that the grant will be received and all attached conditions 
will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is 
recognised as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the 
related costs, for which it is intended to compensate, are expensed. 
When the grant relates to an asset, it is recognised as income in equal 
amounts over the expected useful life of the related asset.
When the Group receives grants of non-monetary assets, the asset 
and the grant are recorded at nominal amounts and released to profi t 
or loss over the expected useful life of the asset, based on the pattern 
of consumption of the benefi ts of the underlying asset by equal annual 
instalments.

(A) MARKET RISK  
(i) Foreign exchange risk
The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign 
exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with 
respect to the US dollar. 
Foreign exchange risk arises from commercial transactions, given that 
the Group’s sales revenues are denominated in US dollars and the 
majority of its operating costs are denominated in Australian dollars, 
and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that 
is not the entity’s functional currency. 
The risk is measured using sensitivity analysis and cash fl ow 
forecasting. The Group’s exposure to US dollar denominated foreign 
currency risk at the reporting date, expressed in Australian dollars, 
was as follows: 
2024
$’000
2023
$’000
Cash and cash equivalents
37,026
85,078
Trade and other receivables

57,728
Trade and other payables
(730)
(119)
Net US dollar surplus
37,027
142,687
Group sensitivity 
Based on the fi nancial instruments held at 31 December 2024, had 
the Australian dollar weakened/strengthened by 10% against the US 
dollar with all other variables held constant, the Group’s post tax profi t 
for the fi nancial period would have been $2.4 million higher / $2.9 
million lower (2023: $9.1 million higher / $11.1 million lower), mainly as 
a result of foreign exchange gains/losses on US dollar denominated 
cash and cash equivalents, term deposits and receivables as detailed 
in the above table.
(ii) Price risk 
The Group is exposed to commodity price risk. During current and 
prior years, the price of iron ore pellets is based on a price index used 
in the market. At this time, the Group does not manage its iron ore 
price risk with fi nancial instruments. 
Going forward, the Group may consider using fi nancial instruments 
to manage commodity price risk given exposures to market prices 
arising from the adoption of index based market pricing mechanisms. 
Short term managed funds are exposed to price risk arising from 
investments held by the fund for which the future prices are 
uncertain. The investment manager moderates this risk through a 
careful selection of securities within specifi ed limits. The fund actively 
maintains a high level of diversifi cation in its holdings, thus potentially 
reducing the amount of risk in the fund. 
(iii) Cash fl ow and fair value interest rate risk
The Group’s main interest rate risk arises from cash and cash 
equivalents, term deposits and short-term managed funds. 
For short term managed funds, the interest-bearing fi nancial assets 
in each of the Funds expose it to risks associated with the effects 
of fl uctuations in the prevailing levels of market interest rates on its 
fi nancial position and cash fl ows. The main interest rate risk arises 
from the Fund’s investments in bonds. 
The Group analyses its interest rate exposure on a dynamic basis. 
Various scenarios are simulated taking into consideration refi nancing, 
renewal of existing positions, alternative fi nancing and hedging. 
Based on these scenarios, the Group calculates the impact on profi t 
and loss of a defi ned interest rate shift. No fi nancial instruments are 
used to manage interest rate risk.
(B) CREDIT RISK 
Credit risk is managed on a Group basis. Credit risk arises from 
cash and cash equivalents and deposits with banks and fi nancial 
institutions, as well as credit exposures to customers, including 
outstanding receivables and committed transactions. 
The Group is exposed to a concentration of risk with sales of iron 
ore being made to a limited number of customers. The maximum 
exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is limited to the carrying 
value of trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents and deposits 
with banks and fi nancial institutions. As at 31 December 2024, there 
are $0.18 million in trade receivables (2023: $0.18 million) that are 
past due. The other classes within trade and other receivables do not 
contain impaired assets and are not past due. 
(C) LIQUIDITY RISK 
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining suffi cient 
cash and marketable securities, the availability of funding through 
an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and the ability 
to close out market positions. The Group manages liquidity risk by 
continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash fl ows and matching 
the maturity profi les of fi nancial assets and liabilities. 
Maturities of fi nancial liabilities 
The table below analyses the Group’s fi nancial liabilities into relevant 
maturity groupings based on the remaining period as at the reporting 
date to the contractual maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the 
table are the contractual undiscounted cash fl ows.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Diluted earnings per share 
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the fi gures used in the determination 
of basic earnings per share to take into account: 
• 
the after-income tax effect of interest and other fi nancing costs 
associated with the dilutive potential ordinary shares; and
• 
the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that 
would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all 
dilutive potential ordinary shares.
(AB) PARENT ENTITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION 
The fi nancial information for the parent entity, Grange Resources 
Limited, disclosed in note 36 has been prepared on the same basis as 
the consolidated fi nancial statements, except as set out below. 
Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint venture entities
Investments in subsidiaries and joint venture entities are accounted 
for at cost in the fi nancial statements of Grange Resources Limited. 
Dividends received from associates are recognised in the parent 
entity’s profi t or loss, rather than being deducted from the carrying 
amount of these investments. 
Financial guarantees 
Where the parent entity has provided fi nancial guarantees in relation 
to loans and payables of subsidiaries for no compensation, the fair 
values of these guarantees are accounted for as contributions and 
recognised as part of the cost of the investment.  
(AC) ROUNDING OF AMOUNTS 
The Group is of a kind referred to in ASIC Legislative Instrument 
2016/191 Class, issued by the Australian Securities and Investments 
Commission, relating to the “rounding off” of amounts in the fi nancial 
report. Amounts in the fi nancial report have been rounded off in 
accordance with the instrument to the nearest thousand dollars, or in 
certain cases, the nearest dollar.
NOTE 2.
CLIMATE-RELATED MATTERS
The Group considers climate-related matters in estimates and 
assumptions, where appropriate. This assessment includes a wide 
range of possible impacts on the Group due to both physical and 
transition risks. The Group is closely monitoring relevant changes 
and development such as new climate-related legislation although 
climate-related risks might not currently have a signifi cant impact 
on measurement of items in the fi nancial statements. The items and 
considerations that might mostly directly to be impacted by climate-
related matters are:
• 
Useful life of property, plant and equipment. When reviewing the 
residual values and expected useful lives of assets, the Group 
considers climate-related matters, such as climate-related 
legislation and regulations that may restrict the use of assets or 
require signifi cant capital expenditures,
• 
Decommissioning 
Liability. 
The 
impact 
of 
climate-related 
legislation and regulations is considered in estimating the timing 
and future costs of decommissioning,
• 
The Group constantly monitors climate-related risks, including 
physical risks and transition risks when measuring the recoverable 
amount. While the Group does not believe its operation is 
currently signifi cantly exposed to physical risks, the value in use 
may be impacted in several different ways by transition risk, such 
as climate-related legislation, climate-related regulations and 
changes in demand for the Group’s product.
NOTE 3.
FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of fi nancial risks: market 
risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit 
risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management program 
focuses on the unpredictability of fi nancial markets and seeks to 
minimise potential adverse effects on the fi nancial performance of 
the Group. The Group has used derivative fi nancial instruments such 
as foreign exchange contracts and forward commodity contracts to 
manage certain risk exposures. Derivatives are exclusively used for 
hedging purposes, i.e. not as trading or other speculative instruments. 
The Group uses different methods to measure different types of risks 
to which it is exposed. These methods include sensitivity analysis in 
the case of interest rate, foreign exchange and commodity price risks 
and aging analysis for credit risk.
Risk management is carried out by the management team following 
guidance received from the Audit and Risk Committee. 
No events occurred in the current and prior periods that give rise to 
material items of income or expense as a result of climate.
The Group holds the following fi nancial instruments:

NOTE 4.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
AND JUDGEMENTS
The preparation of the fi nancial statements requires management to 
make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported 
amounts in the fi nancial statements. Management continually 
evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, 
contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its 
judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience 
and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, 
management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. 
There are no critical accounting judgements, estimates and 
assumptions that are likely to affect the current or future fi nancial 
years.
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based 
on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of 
future events that may have a fi nancial impact on the entity and that 
are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. 
The resulting accounting estimates will, by defi nition, seldom equal 
the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have 
a signifi cant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying 
amounts of assets and liabilities within the next fi nancial year are 
discussed below.
(A) NET REALISABLE VALUE OF INVENTORIES 
The Group reviews the carrying value of its inventories at each 
reporting date to ensure that the cost does not exceed net 
realisable value. Estimates of net realisable value include a number 
of assumptions, including commodity price expectations, foreign 
exchange rates and costs to complete inventories to a saleable 
product. As at 31 December 2024 the net realisable value exceeded 
cost for all signifi cant inventory balances.
(B) ASSESSMENT OF CGU RECOVERABLE VALUE
Methodology  
The recoverable amount of each CGU has been estimated using a 
fair value less costs of disposal basis. The costs of disposal have been 
estimated by management based on prevailing market conditions. 
The fair value assessment is categorised within level 3 in the fair value 
hierarchy. An impairment loss is recognised for a CGU when the 
recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount.
Fair value is estimated based on the net present value of estimated 
future cash fl ows for a CGU. Future cash fl ows are based on a number 
of assumptions, including commodity price expectations, foreign 
exchange rates, reserves and resources and expectations regarding 
future operating performance and capital requirements which are 
subject to risk and uncertainty. An adverse change in one or more of 
the assumptions used to estimate fair value could result in a reduction 
of the CGU’s fair value.
Operating performance
(production, operating costs and capital costs) 
Life of mine production, operating cost and capital cost assumptions 
are based on the Group’s most recent life of mine plan approved by 
the Board. The underground mine will transition the current North Pit 
open cut mining to an underground block cave and sub-level cave 
mine over the next 5 years. The transition to underground mining has 
been integrated with the current open cut mining operations. Total 
capital investment in the underground mine is expected to be 
approximately $890 million over several years with the majority of 
the investment expected to be made between 2026 to 2030. The 
underground mine is expected to deliver a substantial reduction in life-
of-mine operating costs of 30%. Once in production, the underground 
mine will reduce carbon emissions by 80% at the Savage River Mine 
in line with the Company’s environment, social and governance (ESG) 
initiatives to develop Green Pellet Production. Mineral resources and 
ore reserves not in the most recent life of mine plan are not included 
in the determination of the recoverable amount.  
While the Group acknowledges that factors such as future changes 
to the regulatory framework in response to climate change could 
impact future recoverability, these factors have not been included 
in our assumptions. While the Group acknowledges that the world 
is moving to a low-carbon future and it must address the risks and 
opportunities that climate change may bring, the Group has not 
identifi ed any immediate fi nancial impacts of climate change risk in 
the short term. 
(C) STRIPPING COSTS IN THE PRODUCTION PHASE
OF A SURFACE MINE (INTERPRETATION 20) 
The application of Interpretation 20 requires management judgement 
in determining whether a surface mine is in the production phase and 
whether the benefi ts of production stripping activities will be realised 
in the form of inventory produced through improved access to ore.
Judgement is also applied in identifying the component of the ore 
body and the manner in which stripping costs are capitalised and 
amortised. There are a number of uncertainties inherent in identifying 
components of the ore body and the inputs to the relevant production 
methods for capitalising and amortising stripping costs and these 
assumptions may change signifi cantly when new information 
becomes available. Such changes could impact on capitalisation 
and amortisation rates for capitalised stripping costs and deferred 
stripping asset values. 
(D) DETERMINATION OF MINERAL RESOURCES
AND ORE RESERVES 
Mineral resources and ore reserves are based on information 
compiled by a Competent Person as defi ned in accordance with 
the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral 
Resources and Ore Reserves (the JORC 2012 code). There are 
numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating ore reserves and 
assumptions that are valid at the time of estimation may change 
signifi cantly when new information becomes available. Changes in 
forecast prices of commodities, exchange rates, production costs or 
recovery rates may change the economic status of ore reserves and 
may, ultimately, result in the reserves being restated. Such changes in 
reserves could impact on depreciation and amortisation rates, asset 
carrying values and provisions for rehabilitation.  
(E) PROVISION FOR DECOMMISSIONING
AND RESTORATION COSTS 
Decommissioning and restoration costs are a normal consequence 
of mining, and the majority of this expenditure is incurred at the 
end of a mine’s life. In determining an appropriate level of provision, 
consideration is given to the expected future costs to be incurred, the 
timing of these expected future costs (largely dependent on the life 
of the mine), and the estimated future level of infl ation, with reference 
to analysis performed by internal and external experts.
The ultimate cost of decommissioning and restoration is uncertain 
and costs can vary in response to many factors including changes 
to the relevant legal requirements, changes to mine plan, and the 
emergence of new restoration techniques or experience at other 
mine sites. The expected timing of expenditure can also change, for 
example in response to changes in reserves or to production rates. 
Certain rehabilitation activities are undertaken as part of the mining 
operations included in the life of mine plan. Should the life of mine plan 
be amended in the future to exclude these activities, the provision for 
rehabilitation would increase correspondingly. 
Changes to any of the estimates could result in signifi cant changes to 
the level of provisioning required, which would in turn impact future 
fi nancial results. These estimates are reviewed annually and adjusted 
where necessary to ensure that the most up to date data is used.

(D) CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT 
When managing capital, the Group’s objective is to safeguard the 
ability to continue as a going concern so that the Group continues to 
provide returns for shareholders and benefi ts for other stakeholders, 
and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of 
capital. 
Management 
is 
constantly 
reviewing 
and 
adjusting, 
where 
necessary, the capital structure. This involves the use of corporate 
forecasting models which enable analysis of the Group’s fi nancial 
position including cash fl ow forecasts to determine future capital 
management requirements. To ensure suffi cient funding, a range of 
assumptions are modelled. 
(E) DERIVATIVES 
The Group uses derivative fi nancial instruments, such as foreign 
currency and commodity options to hedge its foreign currency risks 
and commodity price risks, respectively. Such derivative fi nancial 
instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a 
derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured 
at fair value using valuation techniques which employs the use of 
market observable inputs. Derivatives are carried as fi nancial assets 
when the fair value is positive and as fi nancial liabilities when the fair 
value is negative. 
Classifi cation of derivatives 
Derivatives are classifi ed as held for trading and accounted for at fair 
value through profi t or loss. They are presented as current assets or 
liabilities if they are expected to be settled within 12 months after the 
end of the reporting period. 
The Group has the following derivative fi nancial instruments:

(F) RECOGNISED FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS 
This section explains the judgements and estimates made in 
determining the fair values of the fi nancial instruments that are 
recognised and measured at fair value in the fi nancial statements. 
To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in 
determining fair value, the Group has classifi ed its fi nancial instruments 
into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standards.  
Level 1: The fair value of fi nancial instruments traded in active markets 
(such as publicly traded derivatives and equity securities) is based on 
quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. The quoted 
market price used for fi nancial assets held by the Group is the current 
bid price. These instruments are included in level 1.  
Level 2: The fair value of fi nancial instruments that are not traded 
in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives) is 
determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of 
observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specifi c 
estimates. If all signifi cant inputs required to fair value an instrument 
are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.  
Level 3: If one or more of the signifi cant inputs is not based on 
observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. Specifi c 
valuation techniques used to value the derivative fi nancial instruments 
mainly include determining the fair value of forward contracts using 
forward rates at the balance sheet date provided by the dealers. 
The following table presents the Group’s assets and liabilities 
measured and recognised at fair value at 31 December 2024 and 31 
December 2023.

SEGMENT INFORMATION
(A) DESCRIPTION OF SEGMENTS 
Operating segments are determined based on the reports reviewed 
by the Chief Executive Offi cer, who is the Group’s chief operating 
decision maker in terms of allocating resources and assessing 
performance. 
The Group has one reportable segment, being the exploration, 
evaluation and development of mineral resources and iron ore 
mining operations. The Chief Executive Offi cer allocates resources 
and assesses performance, in terms of revenues earned, expenses 
incurred and assets employed, on a consolidated basis in a manner 
consistent with that of the measurement and presentation in the 
fi nancial statements.
Exploration, evaluation and development projects (including the 
Southdown project) are not deemed reportable operating segments 
at this time as the fi nancial performance of these operations is not 
separately included in the reports provided to the Chief Executive 
Offi cer. These projects may become segments in the future.

Sales of iron ore products to Jiangsu Shagang International Trade Co., 
Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Jiangsu Shagang Group, under long-
term off-take agreements (shipment to China) amounted to $145.13 
million / 27.87% of mining revenue (2023: $220.3 million / 35.8%).
Segment assets and capital are allocated based on where the assets 
are located. The consolidated assets of the Group were predominately 
located in Australia as at 31 December 2024 and 31 December 2023. 
The total costs incurred during the current and comparative periods 
to acquire segment assets were also predominately incurred in 
Australia.

Revenue from contracts with provisional pricing is recognised based 
on the estimated forward prices, where available, which the Group 
expects to receive at the end of the quotation period. Where an 
estimated forward price is not available, spot prices are applied as 
management’s best estimate of the provisional prices. The quotation 
period exposure is considered to be an embedded derivative and 
forms part of trade receivables. The subsequent changes in the fair 
value were recognised in the statement of profi t or loss and other 
comprehensive income as other revenue (loss). Changes in fair value 
over, and until the end of the quotation period, are estimated by 
reference to updated forward market prices.

to the operation of the accounts. These deposits earn interest at 
rates set by these institutions. As at 31 December 2024 the weighted 
average interest rate on the Australian dollar accounts was 5.22% (31 
December 2023: 5.17%) and the weighted average interest rate on the 
United States dollar accounts was 6.79% (31 December 2023: 8.15%).
(A)  RISK EXPOSURE 
The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk is discussed in note 3. The 
maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying 
amount of each class of cash and cash equivalents mentioned above.

Trade receivables include provisionally priced receivables relating to 
sales contracts where the selling price is determined after delivery to 
the customers, based on the market price at the relevant quotation 
point stipulated in the contract (note 6 – Revenue from Operations). 
The quotation period exposure is considered to be an embedded 
derivative and not separated from the entire balance. The entire 
balance is accounted for as one instrument and measured at fair 
value.  
Trade receivables - embedded derivative due to quotation period 
exposure is considered as level 2 in fair value hierarchy (note 3)
Security deposits comprise restricted deposits that are used for 
monetary backing for performance guarantees. 
(A) IMPAIRED TRADE RECEIVABLES 
Information regarding the impairment of trade and other receivables 
is provided in note 3.
(B) FOREIGN EXCHANGE AND INTEREST RATE RISK 
Information about the Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk and 
interest rate risk in relation to trade and other receivables is provided 
in note 3.  
(C) FAIR VALUE AND CREDIT RISK 
Due to the short-term nature of these receivables, their carrying 
amount is assumed to be their fair value. The maximum exposure to 
credit risk at the end of the reporting period is the carrying amount 
of each class of receivables mentioned above. Refer to note 3 for 
more information on the credit quality of the Group’s trade and other 
receivables.

GOVERNMENT GRANTS
During the year the Group received government grants of $1.55m for 
the underground mining and decarbonisation projects and there are 
no unfulfi lled conditions or contingencies attached to these grants.
These grants will be recognised as an income in equal amounts 
over the expected useful life of the related assets. During the 
year, no amount was released to the consolidated statement of 
comprehensive income.
NOTE 24.
SHARE-BASED PAYMENT
Grange Resources Limited (Parent Company) granted performance 
rights in three tranches and to be settled by issuance of shares to key 
management personnel. Each right is entitled to one equity share 
with a vesting date of 31 December 2024, 31 December 2025 and 31 
December 2026.
Tranche 1 requires a total share return (TSR) hurdle while Tranche 2 and 
Tranche 3 requires a series of non-market-based business objectives. 
The fair value at grant date for tranche 1 is estimated using a Monte 
Carlo model, adjusted to take account of the Shareholder Return 
(“TSR”) target required for the Performance Rights to vest while for 
tranche 2 and 3 using a Black-Scholes option pricing. The fair value at 
the grant date was estimated using the following assumptions:

The leave obligations cover the Group’s liabilities for long service leave 
and annual leave which are classifi ed as either current or non-current 
benefi ts. The current portion of this liability includes all of the accrued 
annual leave, the unconditional entitlements to long service leave 
where employees have completed the required period of service 
and also for those employees that are entitled to pro-rata payments 
in certain circumstances. The entire amount of the provision of $20.5 
million (2023: $19.1 million) is presented as current, since the Group 
does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for any of 
these obligations. However, based on past experience, the Group 
does not expect all employees to take the full amount of accrued 
leave or require payment within the next 12 months.

GRANGE RESOURCES ANNUAL REPORT 2024
The key assumptions which are used by the Directors in determining 
the recoverable amount for the Group’s Savage River CGU were in 
the following ranges:

in accordance with 
JORC 2012
34.7 million 
tonnes
Probable ore reserves 
in accordance with 
JORC 2012
74.5 million 
tonnes
Management has determined each of the above key assumptions as 
follows:
Commodity prices and foreign exchange rates
Commodity prices and foreign exchange rates are estimated with 
reference to analysis performed by an external party and are updated 
at least once every six months, in-line with the Group’s reporting 
dates. The iron ore pellet price assumptions are based market indices 
adjusted for premiums supported by sales arrangements achieved by 
the Group, net of freight.
Operating performance
(production, operating costs and capital costs) 
The Company completed the Defi nitive Feasibility Study (DFS) for 
underground mining below North Pit and its integration with the 
Company’s current open-cut mine. The fi ndings of the DFS were 
integrated with the transition from open-cut mining to demonstrate 
the effective implementation of the underground project alongside 
the current operation (see market release dated 28 February 2024).
Life of mine production, operating cost and capital cost assumptions 
are based on the Group’s most recent life of mine plan approved by 
the Board. The underground mine will transition the current North Pit 
open cut mining to an underground block cave and sub-level cave 
mine over the next 5 years. The transition to underground mining 
has been integrated with the current open cut mining operations. 
The Company is also evaluating an extension of the Centre Pit mine 
plan as an alternative feed source to complement the North Pit 
Underground Development. Pursuing parallel development of the 
Centre Pit is expected to de-risk the broader Savage River Operations 
and enhance operational fl exibility.
The Company has appointed a leading independent fi nance advisory 
group as fi nancial adviser to assist in arranging an attractive and 
fl exible funding package for the development of the Company’s 
100%-owned North Pit Underground Project. 
While the Group acknowledges that factors such as future changes 
to the regulatory framework in response to climate change could 
impact future recoverability, these factors have not been included 
in our assumptions. While the Group acknowledges that the world 
is moving to a low-carbon future and it must address the risks and 
opportunities that climate change may bring, the Group has not 
identifi ed any immediate fi nancial impacts of climate change risk in 
the short term. 
 
Climate-related matters
The Group constantly monitors the latest government legislation in 
relation to climate-related matters. At the current time, no legislation 
has been passed that will impact the Group. The Group will adjust 
the key assumptions used in fair value calculations and sensitivity to 
changes in assumptions should a change be required. 
Discount rate  
To determine the recoverable amount, the estimated future cash 
fl ows have been discounted to their present value using a post-tax 
real discount rate that refl ects a current market assessment of the 
time value of money and risks specifi c to the asset.
(iii) Impacts 
The Group has conducted a carrying value analysis and has not 
identifi ed impairment to its net assets carrying value as at 31 
December 2024.
(iv) Sensitivity Analysis
Increase in discount rates or changes in other key assumptions, such 
decrease iron ore pellet price, increase AUD:USD exchange rate or 
increase the operating costs may cause the recoverable amount to 
fall below carrying value.
The below sensitivities indicate the degree to actual outcomes would 
need to vary from management estimates for the recoverable amount 
of the mining properties to equal its carrying value.
• 
Iron ore pellet price decrease by $0.6 per dmt
• 
The exchange rate (USD/AUD) increased by $0.003
• 
The operating costs increase by 0.7%
• 
13 basis point increase in discount rate
Due to the interrelated nature of the assumptions, movements in any 
one variable can have an indirect impact on others and individual 
variables rarely change in isolation. Additionally, management can be 
expected to respond to some movements to mitigate downsides and 
take advantage of upsides, as circumstances allow.

IMPAIRMENT OF NON-CURRENT ASSETS
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is any 
indication that an asset should be impaired. The Group considers 
the relationship between its market capitalisation and its book value, 
among other factors, when reviewing for indicators of impairment. 
As at 31 December 2024, the market capitalisation of the Group was 
below the book value of its net assets and the iron ore price prices 
decreased since the end of 2024 indicating a potential trigger for 
impairment of assets.
Impairment Testing
(i) Methodology  
The recoverable amount of each CGU has been estimated using a 
fair value less costs of disposal basis. The costs of disposal have been 
estimated by management based on prevailing market conditions. 
The fair value assessment is categorised within level 3 in the fair value 
hierarchy. An impairment loss is recognised for a CGU when the 
recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount.
Fair value is estimated based on the net present value of estimated 
future cash fl ows for a CGU. Future cash fl ows are based on a number 
of assumptions, including commodity price expectations, foreign 
exchange rates, reserves and resources and expectations regarding 
future operating performance and capital requirements which are 
subject to risk and uncertainty. An adverse change in one or more of 
the assumptions used to estimate fair value could result in a reduction 
of the CGU’s fair value.
Estimates of future commodity prices are based on the Group’s best 
estimate of future market prices with reference to external market 
analysts’ forecasts. Management has refi ned the pricing methodology 
to rely on blended pricing of two experts’ price forecasts in 65% Fe 
Fines to ensure a balanced and reasonable outlook on commodity 
prices.
(ii) Key assumptions
The impairment model has been developed based on the assumption 
that project investment will commence in early 2026, with the initial 
extraction of underground ore anticipated between late 2028 and 
mid-2029.

GRANGE RESOURCES ANNUAL REPORT 2024
 
Our audit approach 
An audit is designed to provide reasonable assurance about whether the financial report is free from 
material misstatement. Misstatements may arise due to fraud or error. They are considered material if 
individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of 
users taken on the basis of the financial report. 
We tailored the scope of our audit to ensure that we performed enough work to be able to give an 
opinion on the financial report as a whole, taking into account the geographic and management 
structure of the Group, its accounting processes and controls and the industry in which it operates. 
Audit scope 
Key audit matters 
● 
Our audit focused on where the Group made 
subjective judgements; for example, significant 
accounting estimates involving assumptions and 
inherently uncertain future events. 
● 
Amongst other relevant topics, we communicated 
the following key audit matters to the Audit and 
Risk Committee: 
− 
Carrying value assessment for the Savage 
River cash generating unit (CGU) 
− 
Accounting for the cost of rehabilitation 
● 
These are further described in the Key audit 
matters section of our report. 
Key audit matters 
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in 
our audit of the financial report for the current period. The key audit matters were addressed in the 
context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do 
not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Further, any commentary on the outcomes of a 
particular audit procedure is made in that context.  
Key audit matter 
How our audit addressed the key audit matter 
Carrying value assessment for the Savage River 
cash generating unit (CGU) 
(Refer to note 27)  
The carrying value assessment of the Savage River 
CGU, which consists of the mine and pelletising plant, 
was a key audit matter given the significance of the 
carrying amount to the consolidated statement of 
financial position and the significant judgements and 
assumptions. The revised life of mine plan has 
incorporated the Stage 2 Central Pit mining up to 
2029, followed closely with the commencement of 
underground mining in 2029. The impairment model 
has been developed based on the assumption that 
project investment will commence in early 2026, with 
We performed the following procedures, amongst 
others: 
We developed our understanding of the process by 
which the cash flow forecasts were prepared, tested 
the mathematical accuracy of the discounted cash 
flow model, and assessed that the methodology 
utilised to determine the recoverable amount was 
consistent with Australian Accounting Standards. 
We assessed: 
● 
the long term pellet price and AUD/USD 
exchange rate assumptions by agreeing 
them to analysis performed by external

Independent auditor’s report 
To the members of Grange Resources Limited 
Report on the audit of the financial report 
Our opinion 
In our opinion: 
The accompanying financial report of Grange Resources Limited (the Company) and its controlled 
entities (together the Group) is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including: 
(a) giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 31 December 2024 and of its 
financial performance for the year then ended  
(b) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. 
What we have audited 
The Group financial report comprises: 
● 
the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2024 
● 
the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year then ended 
● 
the consolidated statement of changes in equity for the year then ended 
● 
the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended 
● 
the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including material accounting policy 
information and other explanatory information  
● 
the consolidated entity disclosure statement as at 31 December 2024 
● 
the directors’ declaration. 
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 believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis 
for our opinion. 
Independence 
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 & Ethical 
Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence 
Standards) (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.

GRANGE RESOURCES ANNUAL REPORT 2024
 
the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon. Prior to the date of this auditor's report, the other 
information we obtained included the Directors' Report, Corporate Governance Statement. We expect 
the remaining other information to be made available to us after the date of this auditor's report.  
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not and will not 
express an opinion or any form of assurance conclusion thereon through our opinion on the financial 
report. We have issued a separate opinion on the remuneration report. 
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. 
If, based on the work we have performed on the other information that we obtained prior to the date of 
this auditor’s report, 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. 
When we read the other information not yet received, if we conclude that there is a material 
misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to the directors and use our 
professional judgement to determine the appropriate action to take. 
Responsibilities of the directors for the financial report 
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report in accordance 
with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001, including giving a true and fair 
view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of 
the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 
In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to 
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related 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 the financial report. 
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing 
and Assurance Standards Board website at:

report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
 
Key audit matter 
How our audit addressed the key audit matter 
the initial extraction of underground ore anticipated 
between late 2028 and mid-2029. 
There were a number of factors in the assessment 
requiring judgement by the Group including:  
● 
the pellet (final product) price and the 
AUD/USD exchange rates  
● 
the discount rate  
● 
estimation uncertainty associated with 
forecast of capital expenditure 
● 
Proven and probable ore reserves in 
accordance with JORC 2012 
The Group prepared a discounted cash flow model 
(‘the model’) to determine the recoverable amount of 
the Savage River CGU balance, which requires a 
number of assumptions as described in Note 27. 
 
parties and comparing them to economic 
and industry forecasts 
● 
the discount rate by assessing the cost of 
capital for the Group, assisted by PwC 
valuation experts, and comparing the rate to 
market data 
● 
the operating and capital expenditure 
forecasts were consistent with the board 
approved life of mine plan. 
● 
the level of reserve assumed in the life of 
mine plan by comparing to the most recent 
Annual Resource & Reserve Statement. 
● 
the reasonableness of disclosures made in 
the financial report in line with requirements 
of Australian Accounting Standards 
 
Accounting for the cost of rehabilitation 
(Refer to note 21)  
The main component of the provision for 
decommissioning and restoration costs is for the 
Group’s obligation to rehabilitate the Savage River 
and Port Latta sites for the disturbance caused by its 
operations. The rehabilitation provision also includes 
an obligation under the Tasmanian Goldamere Pty 
Ltd Act 1996 to repay the Tasmanian Government for 
part of the purchase of the mine through expenditure 
on remediation. 
Given the financial significance of this balance and 
the judgments involved in accounting for the cost of 
rehabilitation, this was a key audit matter. 
 
To assess the accounting for the cost of rehabilitation, 
we performed the following procedures, amongst 
others: 
● 
Obtained the Group’s calculation of the 
rehabilitation provision. We checked the 
mathematical accuracy on a selection of 
calculations and whether the timing of the 
cash flows in the rehabilitation models was 
consistent with the latest life of mine plan. 
● 
Assessed whether the discount rates used in 
the rehabilitation models were reasonable by 
comparing them to market data. 
● 
Where external and internal experts were 
used by the Group to estimate remediation 
costs, we assessed our ability to use their 
estimates, considering their objectivity, 
competency and capability and assessing 
that the scope of work they performed was 
appropriate for the purposes of the estimate. 
● 
Compared the Group’s significant 
assumptions on rehabilitation costs to other 
similar costs in the business or external data 
where appropriate.  
Other information 
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the 
information included in the annual report for the year ended 31 December 2024, but does not include
