1 Key Highlights
The Directors of Great Boulder Resources Ltd (Great Boulder, GBR or the
Company) are pleased to present the Annual Report for the Financial Year to
30 June 2021.
The past year has been transformational for Great Boulder. The Blue Poles discovery at Whiteheads was
confirmed by reverse circulation (RC) drilling in late 2020, followed by the discovery of high-grade zones at the
Mulga Bill prospect at Side Well. Mulga Bill is shaping up as a company-making opportunity, with indications of
significant size potential and extremely high-grade gold zones. Mineralisation is open along strike in both
directions.
Highlights during the year include:
Very high grade RC intersections in early drilling at Side Well
o 3m @ 34.5g/t Au from 32m (21MBAC022)
o 6m @ 31.2g/t Au from 130m (21BPRC002)
o 8m @ 7.51g/t Au from 68m (21MBRC016)
The Blue Poles gold discovery at Whiteheads, with gold mineralisation defined in a broad, shallow zone
over 600m of strike with drill hits such as
o 40m @ 1.18g/t Au from 40m (21BPRC004)
o 40m @ 1.15g/t Au from 44m, including 24m @ 1.54g/t Au (21BPRC014)
o 36m @ 1.09g/t Au from 28m, including 8m @ 2.20g/t Au (21BPRC008)
Subsequent to the end of financial year the Company reported a spectacular intersection of 3m @ 149.89g/t Au
at Side Well within a broader zone of 14m @ 36.12g/t Au from 91m (21MBRC034). That hole also intersected a
second, lower zone assaying 6m @ 24.33g/t Au.
In light of the ongoing success at both gold projects the Directors decided to exercise the Company’s option to
acquire a 75% interest in the Whiteheads and Side Well tenements from Zebina Minerals Pty Ltd.
The results achieved at both projects this year are the result of methodical exploration using all available
geophysical and geochemical information to define gold targets as discretely as possible prior to RC drilling. This
process allows the Company to maximise exploration efficiency and its success is spectacularly demonstrated
with the second RC hole at Mulga Bill intersecting 6m @ 31.2g/t Au from 132m in 21MBRC002.
In April the Company pegged tenements over a very large area of the Earaheedy Basin in Western Australia, a
region which has the potential to become a world-class zinc-lead province. The new Wellington Project covers
1,134km2 including a 60km strike extent of the prospective Frere Formation. The tenements are expected to be
granted during the coming year.
Subsequent to the end of the reporting year the Company announced its intention to demerge the Yamarna base
metals projects into a new stand-alone entity, Cosmo Metals Ltd, which will be dedicated to advancing the
discoveries at Mt Venn, Eastern Mafic and also Winchester. Cosmo Metals is expected to be listed on the ASX in
late 2021.

2 Review of Operations
SIDE WELL GOLD PROJECT
The Side Well project consists of a single tenement E51/1905, located east-northeast of Meekatharra in Western
Australia. Side Well covers an area of 132km2 including approximately 25km of strike coverage over the
Meekatharra-Wydgee greenstone belt.
The Meekatharra region is a highly prospective
goldfield, having produced around 4 million ounces of
gold with more than 2.7 million ounces remaining in
published resources1. Gold production has mainly
focused on the western side of the greenstone belt,
where gold is often hosted in banded iron formation
(BIF).
is an area dominated by
The Polelle Syncline
intermediate volcaniclastics. Side Well lies within the
eastern limb of the syncline and is partially blanketed
by a thin layer of alluvial cover. As a result, the project
remains vastly under-explored relative to its gold
potential.
After acquiring an option to explore Side Well in July
2020 the Company commenced drilling the following
month, with a 12-hole RC validation program testing
grade continuity around previous intersections drilled
by Doray Minerals. Immediately after this an Air-Core
(AC) rig was mobilised to site to commence the first of
three large campaigns of infill drilling.
Much of the historic drilling is on drill lines 400m apart
is no detailed assay or geological
and there
information to confirm the strike, dip or depth extent
of gold mineralisation at Mulga Bill. With a broad
diffuse halo of supergene gold anomalism sitting in
the weathered zone over a potential bedrock target
area 3.7km long and 600m wide, targeting primary
mineralisation accurately at depth was a significant
challenge. This challenge was overcome by drilling a pattern of AC holes to blade refusal in order to sample the
top of the fresh rock – often 90 to 110m down-hole – and assay the samples for a suite of 48 pathfinder elements.
The Company was able to generate contours of pathfinder elements associated with primary gold mineralisation,
narrowing down the prospect area to a series of discrete, north-south-trending gold targets.
Figure 2: Side Well location map.
Having completed over 160 AC holes at Side Well, mainly in the central portion of the Mulga Bill prospect, the
Company commenced testing the primary targets with RC drilling in early 2021. This drilling led to immediate
success, with hole 21MBRC002 intersecting a 6m zone averaging 31.2g/t Au beneath an AC hole (21MBAC022)
which intersected 3m @ 24.5g/t Au.
By June 30, 46 RC holes had been completed in the central area of Mulga Bill, defining two sub-parallel
mineralised zones up to 1,000m long immediately south of a Proterozoic dyke which bisects the prospect. These
target zones are the priority for ongoing RC drilling, while AC programs continue to extend Mulga Bill along strike
to the north and south.

Figure 3: Recent RC drilling results from the central Mulga Bill high-grade zones.
Analysis of Great Boulder’s multi-element geochemical data by consulting geochemist Dr Scott Halley led to a
breakthrough in June this year. The geochemistry demonstrates a strong association between gold and the
pathfinder elements bismuth, molybdenum and silver as well as copper and arsenic. This association is a classic
geochemical signature of intrusive-related gold systems (IRGS), a style of deposit not previously recognised at
Meekatharra. This development is an extremely positive advance in the Company’s understanding of Mulga Bill,
as IRGS deposits tend to have significant depth continuity as well as size potential. St Ives in the Kambalda area
of Western Australia is a well-known cluster of large IRGS deposits. However the Company is still working to
better understand the scale of Mulga Bill before making any specific comparisons.
Subsequent to 30 June 2021 the Company completed a detailed gravity survey over the Side Well project in order
to define possible magmatic intrusions at depth beneath Mulga Bill; the theoretical “heat engines” driving the
regional mineralising system. Final processing and interpretation of the gravity data is still in progress.
At Mulga Bill the Company has defined gold and pathfinder anomalism over more than 5km of strike, with the
system open to the north and south as well as at depth. Given the size and depth potential of the system as well
as the very high-grade structures already identified in early drilling, Mulga Bill has potential to be a
transformational discovery for Great Boulder.
Outside of Mulga Bill the Company’s exploration strategy at Side Well is designed to identify and progress a
pipeline of prospects, from conceptual targets through to discovery and definition. Current targets include
Matilda, which was discovered in regional drilling by Doray Minerals with an intersection of 3m @ 35.5g/t Au
from 76m in hole MNAC0463. There has been insufficient drilling to understand the mineralisation style and
potential at Matilda, but this intersection remains open along strike with no effective drilling within 400m to the
north or south.

Elsewhere, the northern end of the Side Well project contains a number of conceptual structural target areas,
where small intrusive bodies and cross-cutting faults disrupt the prospective mafic-banded iron formation
stratigraphy. A broad-spaced soil sampling program completed in April 2021 on a 400m (north-south) by 50m
(east-west) grid identified a number of pathfinder anomalies which are now being infilled with additional soil
sampling to 200 by 50m prior to initial drill testing.

WHITEHEADS GOLD PROJECT
The 450km2 Whiteheads project north of Kalgoorlie is an amalgamation of tenements including a farm-in
agreement with Mithril Resources Ltd on the western half of Whiteheads and a 75% joint venture with Zebina
Minerals Pty Ltd in the east. Both agreements were executed in late 2019.
Whiteheads is a large project with significant potential for gold and nickel. Straddling the boundary between the
Kalgoorlie and Kurnalpi terranes, Whiteheads has previously been explored for komatiite-hosted nickel at the
Wishbone and Drumstick prospects within the Kalgoorlie Terrane. The Carr Boyd nickel project in the Kurnalpi
Terrane immediately north of Whitehead highlights untested potential for magmatic-hosted nickel sulphides.
The project includes a number of small-scale historic workings dating back to the early 1900’s particularly on the
trend running from Seven Leaders in the north-eastern area of Whiteheads down to the Gindalbie mining centre
in the southeast.
Much of the exploration conducted by previous explorers at Whiteheads has focused on gold exploration on the
eastern half of the project, within the Kurnalpi terrane, and nickel exploration on the western half within the
Kalgoorlie terrane. Interestingly, this means that a large portion of the western side of Whiteheads has received
very little attention from gold explorers.
Great Boulder’s exploration at Whiteheads has
been primarily focused on the gold potential.
Initial auger sampling and drilling on the Arsenal
Trend in the north-eastern area of Whiteheads
led to the discovery of Blue Poles, which was
defined by three rounds of RC drilling from late
2020. Blue Poles is a broad, plunging cigar-
shaped shoot of gold mineralisation up to 45m
wide over a strike extent of approximately 600m,
with recent deeper drilling to the south
indicating potential for higher grade primary
mineralisation to the south.
A detailed gravity survey completed in early 2021
confirmed the Arsenal Trend as a significant
regional structure, with a corridor of interpreted
felsic
intrusions plunging south and driving
mineralisation along the trend. In addition to the
gravity interpretation, further evidence of this
system is provided by high-temperature mineral
alteration seen in petrography at Blue Poles on
the northern end of the trend, with
low-
temperature multi-element geochemistry seen
in auger sampling at the southern end of the
trend. This data supports Great Boulder’s model
of a large-scale system driving mineralising fluids
from north to south, parallel to regional
stratigraphy, reflected in a temperature gradient from north to south as well as the surface gold anomalism
identified in work completed to date.
Figure 5: Whiteheads project location.
With an overall potential strike length of approximately 22km stretching from the Gunners prospect in the north
to the Four Dudes prospect in the south, much of the Arsenal Trend has not yet been tested by either soil
geochemistry or drilling. The southernmost line of AC drilling situated between the cross-cutting Proterozoic
dykes is less than halfway down the trend. Great Boulder is hoping to find a number of Blue Poles-type discoveries
down this trend which remains a key priority for ongoing exploration at Whiteheads.
Great Boulder Resources Limited – Annual Report 2021

Figure 6: A gravity image showing the eastern side of Whiteheads
demonstrates the size potential of the Arsenal Trend.
Away from the Arsenal Trend, regional target generation and auger sampling is continuing on a number of
priority areas. Recent auger sampling has returned encouraging results at Jubilee North and Hillsborough, with
ongoing programs further west in the Wishbone area and in the south-east near the historic Eclipse workings.
At Jubilee North, a broad semi-circular magnetic feature with coincident auger anomalism in a conceptual
“pressure shadow” position on the eastern side, first-pass AC drilling on two wide-spaced fences returned a best
result of 4m @ 2.11g/t Au from 52m in hole 21WHAC809. This result from initial drilling on such a large target
area is very encouraging and further work is planned.
Great Boulder Resources Limited – Annual Report 2021

Figure 7: The Jubilee North prospect has previously been interpreted
as a circular porphyry intrusion. Anomalous gold mineralisation
occupies a possible pressure shadow position on the south-eastern
side of the feature.
While exploration results during the year have positioned Side Well as the number one priority for ongoing
exploration, Great Boulder remains focused on continuing the systematic exploration of Whiteheads in parallel
with drilling programs at Side Well. Whiteheads is an extremely prospective exploration project which remains
highly under-explored relative to its potential.

WELLINGTON ZINC-LEAD PROJECT
The Wellington Project is located in the Earaheedy Bason in central Western Australia, an area with the potential
to become a world-class zinc-lead province.
A desktop study of GSWA derived geochemical data by Great Boulder's geologists in 2020 identified a large target
in the Earaheedy Basin similar to Rumble Resources' recent large-scale Zn-Pb discovery at Chinook. With
increased focus on the Earaheedy following significant exploration success by Rumble in early 2021, Great
Boulder made the decision to peg this target in April 2021.
At Wellington the Company has three tenements covering an area of 1,134km2 including 60km of prospective
strike of the Frere Formation. The tenements are currently in application. Once granted, Great Boulder will
commence exploration with field reconnaissance and surface sampling to identify targets for drill testing.
Given the scale of Rumble's early stage discovery, Great Boulder considers the Earaheedy Basin to be potentially
a world-class Mississippi Valley-type (MVT) Zn-Pb province.

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 of the current period. These 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.
Key Audit Matter
How our audit addressed this matter
Carrying value of exploration and evaluation expenditure
Refer to Note 10 in the financial statements
The Group has capitalised a significant amount of
exploration and evaluation expenditure, with a
carrying value of $9,613,815 as at 30 June 2021.
We determined this to be a key audit matter due to
the significant management judgments involved in
assessing the carrying value of the assets including:
Determination of whether the exploration and
evaluation expenditure can be associated with
finding specific mineral resources, and the
basis on which that expenditure is allocated to
an area of interest;
Assessing whether
any
impairment are present; and
indicators
of
Assessing whether exploration activities have
reached a stage at which the existence of an
economically recoverable reserves may be
concluded.
Our audit procedures included:
Obtaining evidence that the Group has valid
rights to explore in the specific area;
Agreeing a sample of additions to supporting
documentation and ensuring the amounts are
capital in nature and relate to the area of interest;
Assessing and evaluating management’s
assessment that no indicators of impairment
existed for those tenements where the Group has
current rights of tenure;
Enquiring with and assessing management’s
basis on which they have determined that the
exploration and evaluation of mineral resources
has not yet reached the stage where it can be
concluded that no commercially viable quantities
of mineral resources exists;
Enquiring with management and reviewing
budgets and plans to test that the Group will incur
substantive expenditure on further exploration for
and evaluation of mineral resources in the
specific area; and
Reviewing minutes of director meetings and ASX
announcements to ensure that the Group had not
resolved to discontinue activities in the specific
area.
Key Audit Matter

information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair
view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal
control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true
and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the 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 this 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: https://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar2.pdf. This
description forms part of our auditor's report.

12 Notes to the Financial Statements
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Great Boulder Resources Limited (the “Company”) and its legal subsidiaries together are referred to in this
financial report as the Group.
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. These
policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
Great Boulders Resources Limited is a for profit public Company, limited by shares and domiciled in Australia.
New, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted
The Group has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by
the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period.
New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet
mandatory, have not been early adopted by the Group for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2021. The
Group's has not yet assessed the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations.
(a)
Basis of preparation
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting
Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australia Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB’) and the Corporations
Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. These financial statements also comply with the
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
These financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the
International Accounting Standards Board.
The financial report was authorised for issue on 29 September 2021 by the Board of Directors.
The functional and presentation currency of Great Boulder Resources Limited is Australian Dollars.
The directors have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity
of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and extinguishment of liabilities in the normal course
of business.
Historical cost convention
These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the
revaluation of available-for-sale financial assets.
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Great Boulder
Resources Limited (‘Company' or 'Parent Entity') as at 30 June 2021 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year
then ended. Great Boulder Resources Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial
statements as the 'Group'.
Great Boulder Resources Limited – Annual Report 2021
36
Subsidiaries are all 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.
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the Group 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.
The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in
ownership interest, without the loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction, where the difference
between the consideration transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling interest acquired
is recognised directly in equity attributable to the parent.
Non-controlling interest in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the statement of profit
or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of financial position and statement of changes in equity of
the Group. Losses incurred by the Group are attributed to the non-controlling interest in full, even if that results
in a deficit balance.
Where the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets including goodwill, liabilities and non-
controlling interest in the subsidiary together with any cumulative translation differences recognised in equity.
The Group recognises the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any investment retained
together with any gain or loss in profit or loss.
(b)
Income tax
The Group adopts the liability method of tax-effect accounting whereby the income tax expense is based on the
profit adjusted for any non-assessable or disallowed items.
Deferred tax is accounted for using the statement of balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary
differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial
statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability,
excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or
liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the statement of comprehensive income except where it relates to
items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity.
The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption
that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the Group will derive
sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of
deductibility imposed by the law.
(c)
Revenue recognition
Interest revenue
Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of
calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period
using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through
the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.
Great Boulder Resources Limited – Annual Report 2021
37
Other revenue
Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established.
(d)
Government grants
Government grants relating to costs are deferred and recognised in profit or less over the period necessary to
match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate.
(e)
Current and non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current
classification.
An asset is current when: it is expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating
cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within twelve months after the
reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle
a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is current when: it is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose
of trading; it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional
right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. All other
liabilities are classified as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current.
(f)
Exploration and evaluation expenditure
Exploration and evaluation expenditure in relation to separate areas of interest for which rights of tenure are
current is carried forward as an asset in the statement of financial position where it is expected that the
expenditure will be recovered through the successful development and exploitation of an area of interest, or by
its sale; or exploration activities are continuing in an area and activities have not reached a stage which permits
a reasonable estimate of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves. Where a project or
an area of interest has been abandoned, the expenditure incurred thereon is written off in the year in which the
decision is made.
(g)
Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis less depreciation and impairment losses.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate,
only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and
the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement
of comprehensive income during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Each class of plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable, any accumulated
depreciation and impairment losses.
Great Boulder Resources Limited – Annual Report 2021
38
The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the
recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net
cash flows that will be received from the assets’ employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash
flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts.
Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all plant and equipment is depreciated on a diminishing value over their useful lives
to the Group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.
The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:
Class of Fixed Asset
Plant and Equipment
Depreciation Rate
10-33%
The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.
An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount
is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and
losses are included in the statement of comprehensive income.
(h)
Right-of-use assets
A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at
cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments
made at or before the commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred,
and, except where included in the cost of inventories, an estimate of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling
and removing the underlying asset, and restoring the site or asset.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the
estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the entity expects to obtain ownership of the
leased asset at the end of the lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right-of use assets are
subject to impairment or adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities.
The entity has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-term leases
with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expensed to
profit or loss as incurred.
(i)
Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial
year and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature they are measured at amortised cost and are not
discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
Great Boulder Resources Limited – Annual Report 2021
39
(j)
Equity-based payments
Equity-based compensation benefits can be provided to suppliers and employees.
The fair value of options granted is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in
contributed equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which the
recipient becomes unconditionally entitled to the options.
The fair value at grant date is independently determined using an option pricing model that takes into account
the exercise price, the term of the option, the vesting and performance criteria, the impact of dilution, the non-
tradeable nature of the option, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share,
the expected divided yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option.
(k)
Earnings per share
i.
Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Group,
excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary
shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the
year.
ii.
Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into
account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential
ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration
in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.
(l)
Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief
operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and
assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the board of directors.
(m)
Impairment of assets
Assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment.
Assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for
the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is
the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment,
assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating
units).
(n)
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-
term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to
known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and bank overdrafts.
Great Boulder Resources Limited – Annual Report 2021
40
(o)
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events,
it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount
has been reliably estimated.
(p)
GST
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is
not recoverable from the taxation. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as
part of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated as inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of
GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included with other receivables or payables in the
statement of financial position.
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing
activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the taxation authority, are presented as operating cash flows.
(q)
Lease liabilities
A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised at the
present value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate
implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the entity's incremental borrowing rate. Lease
payments comprise of fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend
on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase
option when the exercise of the option is reasonably certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties.
The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are expensed in the period in which they
are incurred.
Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are
remeasured if there is a change in the following: future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a
rate used; residual guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease
liability is remeasured, an adjustment is made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the
carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written down.
(r)
Borrowings
Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction
costs. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Where there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting
date, the loans or borrowings are classified as non-current.
The component of the convertible notes that exhibits characteristics of a liability is recognised as a liability in the
statement of financial position, net of transaction costs.
(s)
Finance costs
Finance costs attributable to qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the asset. All other finance costs are
expensed in the period in which they are incurred, including interest on short-term and long-term borrowings.
Great Boulder Resources Limited – Annual Report 2021
41
(t)
Issued Capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity.
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction,
net of tax, from the proceeds.
(u)
Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest method, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are generally due for
settlement within 30 days.
The Group has applied the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime
expected loss allowance. To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on
days overdue.
Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any allowance for expected credit losses.
(v)
Employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and long service leave expected
to be settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the amounts expected to be paid
when the liabilities are settled.
Other long-term employee benefits
The liability for annual leave and long service leave not expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting
date are measured at 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 outflows.
Defined contribution superannuation expense
Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed in the period in which they are
incurred.
Share based payments
Equity-settled compensation benefits are provided to employees. Equity-settled transactions are awards of
shares, or options over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for the rendering of services.
(w)
Parent entity information
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the Group only.
Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in Note 28.

2. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial 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. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom equal the related actual results.
The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial year are
discussed below.
Exploration and evaluation costs
Exploration and evaluation costs have been capitalised on the basis that the Group will commence commercial
production in the future, from which time the costs will be amortised in proportion to the depletion of the
mineral resources. Key judgements are applied in considering costs to be capitalised which includes determining
expenditures directly related to these activities and allocating overheads between those that are expensed and
capitalised. In addition, costs are only capitalised that are expected to be recovered either through successful
development or sale of the relevant mining interest. Factors that could impact the future commercial production
at the mine include the level of reserves and resources, future technology changes, which could impact the cost
of mining, future legal changes and changes in commodity prices. To the extent that capitalised costs are
determined not to be recoverable in the future, they will be written off in the period in which this determination
is made.
Share based payment transactions
The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with suppliers and employees by reference to the
fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using
either the Binomial or Black-Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the
instruments were granted. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity-settled share based
payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting
period but may impact profit or loss and equity.
Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic
Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has had, or
may have, on the consolidated entity based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of
the products and services offered, customers, supply chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the
consolidated entity operates. Other than as addressed in specific notes, there does not currently appear to be
either any significant impact upon the financial statements or any significant uncertainties with respect to events
or conditions which may impact the Group unfavourably as at the reporting date or subsequently as a result of
the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
3. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the
board of directors (chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and determining the allocation of
resources.
The Group operates as a single segment which is mineral exploration and in a single geographical location which
is Australia.

(i)
The Company incurred acquisition costs relating to the following projects:
a. Whiteheads Project:
In the prior year, on 23 August 2019, the Company had entered into an agreement with Zebina
Minerals Pty Ltd (“Zebina”) granting the Company with the exclusive right to acquire a 75% legal
and beneficial interest in exploration licences E27/544, E27/588 and E27/622 (together the
“Whiteheads Project”).
Total consideration in the prior year of $100,000 comprised of;
$50,000 cash, and
980,392 fully paid ordinary shares with a fair value of $50,000 (refer to note 17).
On 23 February 2021, the Company exercised its option to acquire a 75% legal and beneficial
interest in the Whiteheads Project.
Total consideration of $805,714 comprised of;
$200,000 cash,
5,714,286 fully paid ordinary shares with a fair value of $200,000 (refer to note 17),
and
5,714,286 options exercisable at $0.0542 each expiring 19 May 2024 with a fair value
of $405,714 (refer to note 17).
In addition to the above, cash payments totalling $50,000 were also capitalised during the year,
representing extensions to the option term.
b. Side Well Project
On 14 July 2020, the Company entered into an agreement with Zebina granting the Company
with the exclusive right to acquire a 75% legal and beneficial interest in exploration licence
E51/1905 (the “Side Well Project”).
Total consideration of $100,000 was paid in cash.
Refer to note 26 for the subsequent exercise of this option.
c. Mt Jewell Project
In the prior year, on 6 February 2020, the Company entered into an agreement with Simon
Buswell-Smith granting the Company with the exclusive right to acquire a 75% legal and
beneficial interest in exploration licence E27/566 (the “Mt Jewell Project”).
Total consideration in the prior year was $10,000 in cash.
Great Boulder Resources Limited – Annual Report 2021
46
(ii)
In the prior year, the Company relinquished the Tarmoola Joint Venture ($1,069,714), Mt Carlon
Project ($365,621) and Mt Jewell Project ($99,086). As such, the capitalised mineral exploration and
evaluation expenditure in relation to these areas of interest has been impaired.
In the current year, the Company recognised a receivable under the Research and Development Tax
Incentive, of which $109,918 related to areas of interest that were previously impaired.
The ultimate recoupment of exploration and evaluation expenditure carried forward is dependent on successful
development and commercial exploration or, alternatively, sale of the respective areas.

During the year, 5,000,000 options (2020: 6,000,000) were granted to directors and employees as incentive for
services provided and expensed in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive
Income. The fair value of the services could not be reliably measured and therefore, a Lattice ESO model was
used to determine the value of the options issued during the year ended 30 June 2021 and a Black-Scholes option
pricing model for those issued during the year ended 30 June 2020.

The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise receivables, payables, cash and short-term deposits. The
Group manages its exposure to key financial risks in accordance with the Group’s financial risk management

include monitoring levels of exposure to interest rates and assessments of market forecasts for interest rates.
Ageing analysis of and monitoring of receivables are undertaken to manage credit risk, liquidity risk is monitored
through the development of future rolling cash flow forecasts.
The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks as summarized below.
Primary responsibility for identification and control of financial risks rests with the Board. The Board reviews and
agrees policies for managing each of the risks identified below, including for interest rate risk, credit allowances

Great Boulder Resources Limited – Annual Report 2021

Risk Exposures and Responses
(a)
Interest rate risk exposure
The Group is not exposed to interest rate risk.
(b)
Credit risk exposure
Credit risk arises from the financial assets of the Group, which comprise deposits with banks and trade and other
receivables. The Group’s exposure to credit risk arises from potential default of the counter party, with the
maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. The carrying amount of financial assets
included in the statement of financial position represents the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk in relation
to those assets.
The Group does not hold any credit derivatives to offset its credit exposure.
The Group trades only with recognised, credit worthy third parties and as such collateral is not requested nor is
it the Company’s policy to securities it trades and other receivables.
Receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group does not have a significant
exposure to bad debts.
There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Company.
(c)
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk arises from the financial liabilities of the Group and the Group’s subsequent ability to meet their
obligations to repay their financial liabilities as and when they fall due.
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and, the
availability of funding through the ability to raise further equity or through related party entities. Due to the
dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, the Board aims at maintaining flexibility in funding through
management of its cash resources. The Group has no financial liabilities at the year-end other than normal trade
and other payables incurred in the general course of business.
Remaining contractual maturities
The following tables detail the Group's remaining contractual maturity for its financial instrument liabilities. The
tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest
date on which the financial liabilities are required to be paid. The tables include both interest and principal cash
flows disclosed as remaining contractual maturities and therefore these totals may differ from their carrying
amount in the statement of financial position.
