With continuing concerns around the global economy, trade wars and increased geopolitical tension, the safe haven of gold has seen a marked increase in the US$ gold price with current prices around the US$1,750 per ounce mark. With the Australian dollar gold price holding between $2,500-$2,600 and the industry’s focus on reducing costs of production, Australia is now globally competitive and attracting investment both domestically and internationally. Locally, Western Australia and the goldfields region has had another exceptional year with the mid-tier producers reporting continued record production, cash balances and performance metrics putting them well and truly on the world stage. Whereas organic growth had been the focus in 2019, more corporate activity is now clearly evident with the larger cashed up companies completing major acquisitions both domestically and overseas. The trend of the larger companies entering joint ventures with smaller developers and explorers has also continued in what was a challenging capital market for juniors. At the end of FY19, the Company successfully completed the merger with MacPherson Resources to form Horizon Minerals Ltd, a growing emerging mid-tier gold business in the heart of the Western Australian goldfields. The merger consolidated the large scale base load Boorara gold project with a number of high grade open pit and underground satellite projects all within 75km of Boorara. In December, the Company elected to withdraw from any further extensions in relation to the purchase of the Coolgardie gold project and reset its growth strategy centred on development of the current asset base. The Company commenced work on a consolidated Feasibility Study with the aim of generating an initial 5 year mine plan to underpin the construction of a stand-alone processing plant at Boorara, 10km east of Kalgoorlie-Boulder. As part of this Study, a close spaced grade control drilling program was completed across Boorara enabling an updated model for trial mining of three starter pits at the Regal and Crown Jewel deposits. Contract mining commenced in May and toll milling in July at the nearby Lakewood Mill. The aim of the trial is to test the tonnage and grade uplift potential of the orebodies with tighter spaced drilling to de-risk the larger scale development being evaluated as part of the Feasibility Study due for completion in the June Quarter 2021. A number of highly successful drilling campaigns were completed across the Company’s existing and newly acquired tenure and our Resource position has grown to 1.1 million ounces of gold. Over 30,000m have been completed at Boorara, Binduli, Rose Hill, Windanya, Baden Powell, Scotia and Black Flag. Drilling at the Binduli gold project had focussed initially on the Crake Prospect with excellent results released from two drilling campaigns enabling an updated resource to be released. Drilling was then completed at the Coote, Darter and Honeyeater prospects with larger scale follow up drilling programs planned for FY2021. Drilling at the Rose Hill project has delivered excellent high grade results with the project demonstrating both open pit and underground potential and the project considered a significant high grade feed source for the mine plan. In line with our strategy of focussed gold development within close proximity to Boorara, the Company divested its interest in the Menzies and Goongarrie gold projects for a total consideration of $8 million. Upside in the projects is retained through our significant shareholding in Kingwest Resources Ltd who acquired the assets. The Company completed a number of acquisitions during the year to further consolidate assets on the major shear zones and now has a strong landholding including the newly granted Yarmany and Lakewood project areas and the Rose Hill and Brilliant North projects as part of a nil cost asset swap with Northern Star Resources Ltd. Our non-gold joint venture partners progressed during the year as did discussions with new potential partners that can provide mutual benefit. The Joint Venture with RVT covering the world class 1.8Bt Richmond Vanadium project progressed well with a large scale drilling program completed, updated resource for Lilyvale and excellent metallurgical results as part of the Pre-Feasibility Study due for completion in the September Quarter 2020. We’d like to take the opportunity to thank all our Board members including Mr Jeff Williams who retired during the year, staff, contractors and you, our shareholders, for your support during the year. A special thank you to Hamptons, BMGS, Golden Mile Milling, Cardno and our other operations team members on a fantastic job in delivering a successful second mining operation. The Horizon team look forward to keeping you fully informed as the business grows in what will be another very exciting year ahead. JON PRICE Managing Director ASHOK PAREKH Chairman 30 September 2020, Perth, WA ISSUED CAPITAL At 30 June 2020, Horizon Minerals Limited had 452,975,200 fully paid ordinary shares on issue.

OVERVIEW The Company continued to advance and build up its gold project portfolio in Western Australia. In addition, the Company’s joint venture partners were active across multiple earn in projects including the exciting Richmond vanadium project in Queensland. This year, trial mining operations at Boorara, mine evaluation and exploration were the main focus as part of the consolidated Feasibility Study and the regional drilling programs across the portfolio. The locations of all WA projects are shown in Figure 1. Figure 1 Horizon Minerals Ltd WA Projects 2020 OVERVIEW (continued) The Company operates 100% owned gold projects in the Kalgoorlie and Coolgardie Regions and has an earn-in joint venture at the Richmond vanadium project located in Queensland. Over 30,000m of drilling was completed during the 2020 financial year. New gold acquisitions to expand the Kalgoorlie and Coolgardie area portfolio included the Lakewood, Yarmany and Boorara gold projects (Figure 2). Technical programs on these projects included data compilation, exploration targeting, drilling, geological modelling and mine evaluation. Key activities conducted during the year are outlined below. Figure 2 Horizon Minerals Ltd Kalgoorlie Area Gold Projects Location Map BOORARA GOLD PROJECT AREA The Boorara project area comprises the 100% owned 507,000 ounce Boorara gold mine, the Golden Ridge project to the south and the Kanowna South and Balagundi prospects to the north (Figure 2). During the year, activities focussed on grade control drilling and mine development at the Regal, Crown Jewel and Royal deposits that make up the Boorara project. BOORARA GOLD PROJECT – MINING AND DEVELOPMENT The Boorara gold mine is located 10km east of Kalgoorlie in Western Australia (Figure 2 and 4). Grade control drilling (18,000M) was completed in December 2019 on a 10m X 5m drill spacing enabling a detailed geological model to be compiled and mine optimisation and design studies to be completed. A positive Feasibility Study was released to the ASX on 10 February 2020 with mining contractor, necessary approvals and a toll milling agreement in place in May 2020. Three trial pits are to be mined, Regal East, Regal West and Crown Jewel over an 8 month period with toll milling to be completed at the nearby Lakewood processing plant through to January 2021. The outcomes of the Feasibility Study are summarised in the Table below: Measure Total pit volume (MBCM) Stripping ratio (waste: ore) Mined ore (kt) Gold grade (g/t) Milling recovery average (%) Recovered gold (ounces) Capital costs (A$M) C1 costs (A$/oz) All in Sustaining Costs (AISC) (A$/oz) Free cash flow over 8 month mine life (A$M) FS outcome (A$2,400/oz) 0.520 5.5 FS outcome (A$2,600/oz) 0.520 5.5 159 1.86 91.5 8,714 0.44 1,569 1,682 5.4 159 1.86 91.5 8,714 0.44 1,569 1,682 7.1 Mining commenced (Figure 3) in May 2020 with 287,000 BCM mined by year end with approximately 61,000 tonnes of oxide and transitional ore mined at a fully diluted grade of 1.4g/t Au, in line with reserve model estimates for the upper oxide areas of the pits. The first Milling campaign commenced subsequent to year end in July 2020. Figure 3 Horizon Minerals Ltd Mining commences at the Boorara gold mine Regal East pit BOORARA GOLD PROJECT – MINING AND DEVELOPMENT (continued) The tightly spaced grade control drilling program was highly successful in delivering an uplift in tonnage and grade when compared to the global resource model (Figure 4) with a summary of results announced to the ASX on 14 and 21 January 2020 and including the following broad high grade zones of mineralisation: • • • • • • • • • 6m @ 21.16g/t Au from 33m (BGC11147) 25m @ 3.08g/t Au from 15m (BGC11149) 21m @ 2.65g/t Au from 17m (BGC10404) 21m @ 2.74g/t Au from 5m (BGC10526) 29m @ 2.44g/t Au from 22m (BGC10475) 25m @ 2.10g/t Au from 15m (BGC11167) 24m @ 2.17g/t Au from 1m (BGC10474) 25m @ 1.92g/t Au from 12m (BGC11148) 9m @ 7.83g/t Au from 1m (BGC10377) 10m @ 6.84g/t Au from 12m (BGC10334) 8m @ 6.61g/t Au from 19m (BGC11066) 4m @ 12.62g/t Au from 13m (BGC10363) 10m @ 7.87g/t Au from 10m (BGC10379) 15m @ 4.73g/t Au from 14m (BGC11109) 8m @ 5.85g/t Au from 17m (BGC10380) 13m @ 2.99g/t Au from 12m (BGC11132) 8m @ 4.24g/t Au from 4m (BGC11115) 10m @ 3.29g/t Au from 8m (BGC11107) Figure 4 Horizon Minerals Ltd Plan view of the Regal, Royal and Crown Jewel deposits On completion of the trial mining and mill reconciliations in the March Quarter 2021, an updated resource model will be compiled for Boorara enabling generation of reserves for the consolidated Feasibility Study. Boorara base load feed is an integral part of the mine plan and will sit along-side the proposed Boorara Mill. BOORARA GOLD PROJECT AREA – EXPLORATION The current Boorara resource comprises 1.8km of strike and sits with in the greater Boorara area covering over 25km of strike length from Golden Ridge in the south to Kanowna and Balagundi to the north (Figure 5). During the year, a detailed target generation study was completed across the portfolio and a number of high priority drill targets identified in previously untested areas. Both near mine extension drilling and new discovery drilling is planned in FY2021 across both the Boorara and Lakewood project areas. Figure 5 Horizon Minerals Ltd Boorara project area, geology and historic drilling results TEAL GOLD PROJECT AREA – EXPLORATION The Teal project area comprises the 100% owned Teal, Jacques Find, Yolande and Peyes Farm projects and is located 12km northwest of Kalgoorlie and 22km from the proposed Boorara Mill (Figures 2 and 6). Limited drilling was completed at the Teal project area during the year as the Company focussed on advancing the Boorara, Binduli and Rose Hill project areas. Technical work completed included resource model review, preliminary mining studies for Teal Stage 3, Jacques Find and Peyes Farm and planning for the FY2021 drilling program. This program will target additional high grade oxide and transitional open pit ore as demonstrated by the successful Teal Stages 1 and 2 developments completed in 2018 when the Company produced 22,000oz grading 3.2g/t Au and 94% recovery and generated $7 million in free cash flow at a A$1,650/oz gold price. Figure 6 Horizon Minerals Ltd Location Plan Teal-Jacques-Yolande drilling showing recent results The current Mineral Resource estimate for the Teal project area stands at 4.25Mt grading 2.11g/t Au for 289,000 ounces (at a 1g/t lower cut-off grade) (see Table 1 and Competent Persons Statement on Page 17). BINDULI GOLD PROJECT AREA – EXPLORATION The Binduli project is located 10km west of Kalgoorlie – Boulder immediately adjacent to the Company’s Teal project area (Figures 2 and 7). In FY20, 1,224m of resource extension and new discovery drilling was completed within the project area following up the successful 2018 and 2019 programs. The majority of the drilling was completed at the Crake prospect with further regional reconnaissance drilling completed at the Coote, Darter and Honeyeater prospects. Results from Crake were announced to the ASX on 20 August and included: • • • • • • • 3m @ 7.41g/t Au from 81m and 10m @ 1.78g/t Au from 102m (BRC19021) 5m @ 4.91g/t Au from 36m and 9m @ 1.58g/t Au from 65m (BRC19025) 3m @ 3.18g/t Au from 14m and 4m @ 2.47g/t Au from 55m (BRC19031) 3m @ 1.28g/t Au from 10m, 1m @ 2.91g/t Au from 17m, 1m @ 2.13g/t Au from 25m, 1m @ 5.19g/t Au from 32m and 14m @ 1.75g/t Au from 44m (BRC19012) 12m @ 1.65g/t Au from 32m (BRC19010) 10m @ 1.46g/t Au from 77m (BRC19029) 1m @ 3.00g/t Au from 57m and 7m @ 2.78g/t Au from 97m (BRC19027) The recent Crake results (Figure 7) showed good alignment with the current mineralisation model and gives greater confidence in the block model and grade. Most holes intersected +1g/t Au and finished within a barren volcanic footwall schist. Several eastern holes intersected shallower, up dip, mineralisation largely outside the resource area and warrants follow up drilling to help close it off. Given the success to date at Binduli, the project has been elevated to one of the top four core projects being advanced by the Company in the Kalgoorlie region as part of the consolidated Feasibility Study. Figure 7 Horizon Minerals Ltd Binduli gold project area showing recent drilling results As announced to the ASX on 10 December 2019, the new data was used to compile an updated independent Mineral Resource Estimate which is compliant with the JORC 2012 Code. The maiden Mineral Resource Estimate for the Crake project stands at 1.27Mt grading 1.81g/t Au for 74,000 ounces (at a 1g/t Au lower cut-off grade) (see Table 1 and Competent Persons Statement on Page 17). ROSE HILL GOLD PROJECT – EXPLORATION The Rose Hill project is located 0.5km east of Coolgardie and 35km west of Kalgoorlie – Boulder (Figures 2 and 8) and was acquired as part of an asset swap completed with Northern Star Resources Ltd as announced to the ASX on 4 February 2020. Since acquisition, the Company has completed a detailed review of the large geological data base comprising geochemical, geophysical and historic drilling datasets including additional drilling data retrieved to 500m depth and previous open pit and underground mine design work. During FY20, the company completed two drilling programs for 1,600m comprising validation, infill and extensional RC and diamond programs to grow the current mineral resource and advance the project to reserve status. Results from the programs were announced to the ASX on 4 February and 9 June 2020 and included: • • • • • • • 11m @ 8.79g/t Au from 43m (RHRC2006) 10m @ 6.28g/t Au from 28m (RHRC20001) 16m @ 4.10g/t Au from 93m (RHRC20012) 7m @ 7.26g/t Au from 27m (RHRC20009) 7m @ 3.76g/t Au from 45m (RHRC20007) 3.4m @ 17.92g/t Au from 78.7m (RHRCD20015) 3.7m @ 9.77g/t Au from 84.3m (RHRCD20014) Additional infill and extensional RC and diamond drilling is planned at Rose Hill in FY2021 with a focus on reserve conversion for potential open pit and underground mining as part of the initial 5 year mine pipeline. Figure 8 Horizon Minerals Ltd Blister Dam gold project ROSE HILL GOLD PROJECT – EXPLORATION (continued) As announced to the ASX on 4 February 2020, the new data was used to compile an updated independent Mineral Resource Estimate which is compliant with the JORC 2012 Code. The maiden Mineral Resource Estimate for the Rose Hill project stands at 1.2Mt grading 2.49g/t Au for 95,000 ounces (at a 0.7g/t Au lower cut-off grade) (see Table 1 and Competent Persons Statement on Page 17). BADEN POWELL AND WINDANYA GOLD PROJECTS – EXPLORATION The 100% owned Windanya and Baden Powell project areas are located 45km and 60km northwest of Kalgoorlie respectively and sit within the highly prospective Bardoc Tectonic Zone (Figures 2 and 9). During FY20, the company completed drilling programs totalling 4,020m following up from the successful reconnaissance programs completed in 2019. New mineralisation was discovered at the Capricorn prospect (Figure 9) as announced to the ASX on 12 November 2019 extending the known strike length to beyond 400m of strike with mineralisation open to the north, south and at depth. Figure 9 Horizon Minerals Ltd Capricorn gold prospect drilling highlights BADEN POWELL AND WINDANYA GOLD PROJECTS – EXPLORATION (continued) Results from the Capricorn programs (Figure 9) included: • • • • 12m @ 3.62g/t Au from 28m, including 1m @ 24.0g/t Au from 32m (WDRC19031) 5m @ 6.56g/t Au from 43m including 1m @ 21.60g/t Au from 46m (WDRC19028) 5m @ 6.15g/t Au from 66m including 1m @ 26.20g/t Au from 66m (WDRC19029) 10m @ 1.97g/t Au from 65m (WDRC19033) At Baden Powell (Figure 10), extension drilling continued to intersect mineralisation proximal to historic workings to the north of the small Baden Powell open pit. Results from the program as announced to the ASX on 12 November 2019 included: • • • • • • 6m @ 1.82g/t Au from 54m (BPRC19014) 5m @ 1.61g/t Au from 56m and 2m @ 1.10g/t Au from 70m (BPRC19011) 4m @ 1.57g/t Au from 29m (BPRC19013) 8m @ 2.79g/t Au from 76m* (BPRC19028) 5m @ 2.67g/t Au from 12m (BPRC19022) 3m @ 5.73 g/t Au from 18m (BPRC19022) Figure 10 Horizon Minerals Ltd Baden Powell gold prospect drilling highlights KALGOORLIE REGIONAL GOLD PROJECTS – EXPLORATION During the year, first pass exploration drilling continued on our regional project areas with 911m drilled at the Black Flag, Scotia, Olympia with mineralisation intercepted at all projects. Follow up drilling is planned as part of the FY2021 exploration program. In addition, significant field work, rock chip sampling, historic mine mapping, geochemical and geophysical reviews were undertaken to identify priority targets for drilling in FY2021. These prospects included Kanowna south, Balagundi, Golden Ridge, Nimbus, Lakewood, Yarmany, Windanya, Black Flag, Broads Dam and Silver Star. Work completed on new acquisitions at Lakewood and Yarmany included data compilation, data base review and desk top geological studies. The resultant drilling programs will commence in FY2021 pending final granting of the leases. The low cost acquisitions have increased the Company’s tenure to approximately 850km2. DIVESTMENT OF MENZIES AND GOONGARRIE GOLD PROJECTS As announced to the ASX on 9 July 2019, the Company agreed to divest its 100% interest in the Menzies and Goongarrie gold projects to Kingwest Resources Ltd (ASX: KWR) (“Kingwest”) for a total consideration of A$8 million on the following terms: • An initial deposit of $750,000. • On settlement: o A further $1 million in cash; and o Issuing 20M ordinary shares in Kingwest to Horizon at a deemed issue price of $0.15 per share subject to voluntary escrow from date of issue of (a) 18 months following settlement and (b) 3 months following the payment of the deferred consideration. • A deferred payment no later than 18 months after settlement of: o A further $1.625 million in cash; and o $1.625m in value of shares in Kingwest at a deemed price being the lower of $0.15 per share and the 30 day VWAP (subject to shareholder approval and Horizon not exceeding 19.9% ownership in Kingwest). Horizon is now a substantial shareholder in Kingwest with Board representation and has a right to process or purchase any ore from the sale tenements under standard commercial terms. For further details on the divestment, please see the announcement of 9 July and 18 September 2019. DIVESTMENT OF ANTHILL AND BLISTER DAM GOLD PROJECTS As announced to the ASX on 12 September 2019, the Company reached agreement with Northern Star Resources Limited (“Northern Star”) to an exchange of tenements in the WA goldfields for no cash consideration. The transaction involved Horizon divesting its 100% interest in Anthill, Blister Dam, New Mexico, White Flag and Kanowna North tenements and the acquisition of 100% interest in Northern Star’s Rose Hill, Brilliant North and Gunga West projects in Coolgardie and the Golden Ridge, Balagundi, Abattoir and Mt Monger projects in Kalgoorlie (Figure 11). DIVESTMENT OF ANTHILL AND BLISTER DAM GOLD PROJECTS (continued) Figure 11 Horizon Minerals Ltd Asset swap project locations M26/446 (JANET IVY) GOLD PRODUCTION ROYALTY Horizon owns a $0.50/t mining royalty that relates to ore mined and treated from Mining Lease M26/446 located approximately 10km west of Kalgoorlie-Boulder in Western Australia (Figure 2). The Company entered into a Deed for the sale of M26/446 in 2001 and it is now owned by Norton Gold Fields Ltd (“NGF”) which was delisted from the ASX on 1 July 2015. As part of the sale, the Company was prepaid $1,380,000 of the royalty as part of the acquisition cost, equivalent to a mining and treatment tonnage of 2.76Mt ($0.50/t). Mining has been conducted on a semi-continuous basis at the Janet Ivy deposit which is the largest of known deposits on M26/466 since 2009. During the year, royalties received from the royalty tenement totalled $10,435. Horizon anticipates further royalty payments on a quarterly basis for material scheduled by NGF to be treated. NANADIE WELL COPPER - EXPLORATION PROJECT The Nanadie Well Project is located approximately 100km south east of Meekatharra in the Murchison Mineral Field of WA and covers an area of ~145km2 (Figure 1). In December 2013 Horizon entered into a Farm-in and Joint Venture agreement with Mithril Resources Ltd (ASX: MTH) (“Mithril”) whereby Mithril could earn a 75% interest by spending $4M over 6 years. The project is highly prospective for Copper, gold, nickel, cobalt and platinum group elements. During the year and as announced to the ASX on 18 November 2019, the project returned to Horizon on a 100% basis and the Company completed a detailed geological review and a small drilling program to ensure the tenure remained in good standing. Subsequent to year end and as announced to the ASX on 14 July 2020, the Company divested its 100% interest in the project to Cyprium Metals Ltd (ASX: CYM) for $1.5 million in cash and shares. RICHMOND VANADIUM JV – EXPLORATION PROJECT (Intermin retains 25%) In March 2017, the Company finalised a strategic development JV with AXF Vanadium Pty Ltd, now Richmond Vanadium Technologies Pty Ltd (“RVT”). The JV covers Intermin’s 100% interest in the Richmond vanadium project in North West Queensland (Figures 12 and 13) which include metal rights at the nearby Julia Creek project which is owned by Global Oil Shale Plc. The project tenements cover 1,520km2 of Cretaceous Toolebuc Formation hosting shallow oxide ore within marine sediments. Figure 12 Horizon Minerals Ltd (formerly Intermin Resources Limited) Richmond Vanadium Project location Under the JV, RVT has earnt in to 25% of the project by spending A$1 million and committed to spend a further $5 million by March 2021 to earn in the remaining 50% inclusive of providing a pre-feasibility study. In FY20, RVT completed a 7,817m drilling program at the Lilyvale vanadium deposit (Figure 13) to infill previous drilling enabling an updated Mineral Resource Estimate to be compiled at an improved JORC Category for reserve generation studies to be completed. Figure 13 Horizon Minerals Ltd (formerly Intermin Resources Limited) Richmond Vanadium Project location RICHMOND VANADIUM JV – EXPLORATION PROJECT (Intermin retains 25%) (continued) As announced to the ASX on 20 May 2020, the drilling program was highly successful in intercepting remarkably consistent oxide mineralisation along section with the grade improving relative to the historic resource. The updated Mineral Resource estimate for the Lilyvale project stands at 560Mt grading 0.48% V2O5 for 2.60Mt of contained metal (at a 0.30% lower cut-off grade) (see Table 2 and Competent Persons Statement on Page 17). Importantly, over 76% of the Lilyvale resource has been upgraded to the Indicated JORC Category enabling detailed economic evaluation to be completed as part of the Pre-Feasibility Study due for release in the September Quarter 2020. The updated global Mineral Resource estimate for the Richmond project stands at 1,838Mt grading 0.364% V2O5 for 6.65Mt of contained metal (at a 0.30% lower cut-off grade) (see Table 2 and Competent Persons Statement on Page 13). During the year, RVT continued extensive metallurgical testwork on representative samples from the Lilyvale project at the Hunan Institute of Nonferrous Metals in China. Results from the concentration tests using simple screening, gravity and flotation mineral dressing techniques produced excellent results with concentrate comprising 21% of the original mass at an improved grade of >1.6% V2O5 and a 73% recovery. Downstream processing on the concentrate was then conducted with both commercial and proprietary flowsheets producing commercial grade vanadium flake and vanadium electrolyte. With the success of the pre-concentration and downstream tests, test work advanced to simulated production trials using semi-industrial scale samples through the entire process pathway from run of mine ore to final product. Results of these tests and the release of the Pre-Feasibility Study is expected for release in the September Quarter 2020. Horizon sees significant potential of vanadium to play an increasing role in both the steel industry and the emerging battery storage space and for the Richmond oxide sediment resource to be a considerable provider of vanadium well into the next century. The drilling, updated resource model and the pre-feasibility study is expected to be completed in 2020, ahead of the contracted earn in period. NIMBUS SILVER-ZINC PROJECT– EXPLORATION AND DEVELOPMENT The Nimbus project lies immediately adjacent to the Boorara gold mine (Figures 2 and 5) and was placed on care and maintenance in 2007 after producing 3.6Moz from 318kt processed at a grade of 353g/t Ag. The old milling circuit has since been removed and the area rehabilitated. The Project hosts a high-grade silver zinc Resource of 256kt @ 773g/t Ag and 13% Zn that has been estimated from the global Nimbus Resource of 12.1Mt @ 52g/t Ag, 0.9% Zn and 0.2g/t Au for a total of 20Moz Ag and 104kt Zn and 78koz Au (JORC 2012) (see Tables and Competent Persons Statement on Page 18). Nimbus is a shallow-water and low-temperature VHMS deposit with epithermal characteristics (i.e. a hybrid bimodal felsic deposit), which is consistent with its position near the margin of the Kalgoorlie Terrane. The current Discovery and East pits have been subject to extensive drilling highlighting significant potential to extend mineralisation along strike and at depth below 400m. Regional exploration has been limited to the north and south and considered highly prospective for further precious and base metal deposits. Extensive metallurgical test work has been completed on Nimbus ore with the Feasibility Study put on hold in 2014 due to depressed silver prices. In light of increasing silver and zinc prices, the Company is now reviewing options to create value for shareholders inclusive of retention, joint ventures and divestment and has received expressions of interest from a number of third parties in Australia and overseas. WHITE RANGE GOLD PROJECT (DISPOSED) The Company has disposed of its White Range Gold Project in the Northern Territory to Red Dingo Corporation Pty Ltd.

They include indications of, and guidance on, future earnings, cash flow, costs and financial performance. Forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements preceded by words such as “planned”, “expected”, “projected”, “estimated”, “may”, “scheduled”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “potential”, “could”, “nominal”, “conceptual” and similar expressions. Forward looking statements, opinions and estimates included in this announcement are based on assumptions and contingencies which are subject to change without notice, as are statements about market and industry trends, which are based on interpretations of current market conditions. Forward looking statements are provided as a general guide only and should not be relied on as a guarantee of future performance. Forward looking statements may be affected by a range of variables that could cause actual results to differ from estimated results, and may cause the Company’s actual performance and financial results in future periods to materially differ from any projections of future performance or results expressed or implied by such forward looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include but are not limited to liabilities inherent in mine development and production, geological, mining and processing technical problems, the inability to obtain any additional mine licenses, permits and other regulatory approvals required in connection with mining and third party processing operations, competition for among other things, capital, acquisition of reserves, undeveloped lands and skilled personnel, incorrect assessments of the value of acquisitions, changes in commodity prices and exchange rate, currency and interest fluctuations, various events which could disrupt operations and/or the transportation of mineral products, including labour stoppages and severe weather conditions, the demand for and availability of transportation services, the ability to secure adequate financing and management’s ability to anticipate and manage the foregoing factors and risks. There can be no assurance that forward looking statements will prove to be correct. Statements regarding plans with respect to the Company’s mineral properties may contain forward looking statements in relation to future matters that can only be made where the Company has a reasonable basis for making those statements. This announcement has been prepared in compliance with the JORC Code (2012) and the current ASX Listing Rules. The Company believes that it has a reasonable basis for making the forward looking statements in the announcement, including with respect to any production targets and financial estimates, based on the information contained in this and previous ASX announcements. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE - RESERVES AND RESOURCES CALCULATIONS Due to the nature, stage and size of the Company’s existing operations, Horizon is of the opinion there would be no efficiencies gained by establishing a separate Mineral Reserves and Resources committee responsible for reviewing and monitoring the Company’s processes for calculating Mineral Reserves and Resources and for ensuring that the appropriate internal controls are applied to such calculations. However, the Company ensures that all Mineral Reserve and Resource calculations are prepared by competent, appropriately experienced geologists and are reviewed and verified independently by a qualified person. Project BINDULI Tenement Schedule as at 30 June 2020 Tenement Registered Holders Equity Notes E26/209 L26/261 M26/346 M26/499 M26/549 M26/621 P26/3888 P26/4014 P26/4056 P26/4256

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN STATE OF AFFAIRS • In July 2019, the Company divested 100% of its interest in the Menzies and Goongarrie gold projects to Kingwest Resources Limited (ASX: KWR). As per the ASX announcement on 9 July 2019, total consideration for the projects were $8M. The Company received an initial deposit of $750,000 and on settlement, a further $1M in cash and an issue of 20M ordinary shares in Kingwest, valued at $3M. A deferred payment of $3.25M is to be received no later than 18 months after settlement being a further $1.625M in cash and $1.625M in ordinary shares in Kingwest at a deemed issue price being the lower of $0.15 per share and the 30 day VWAP (subject to shareholder approval and Horizon not exceeding 19.9% ownership in Kingwest). The Company recognised a profit of $2,684,450 at June 2020 as a result of this transaction. • During the year ended 30 June 2020, the Company received formal notification from Focus Minerals Limited (“Focus”) under the Exclusivity Deed that Focus is unlikely to obtain the required internal, board and regulatory approvals necessary for it to proceed with the proposed sale of the Coolgardie gold project before the expiry of the Exclusivity Period on 17 December 2019.

The loan is secured over Boorara Gold project mining tenements M26/29 and M26/318. The loan is for a period of 12 months, with an interest rate of 20% p.a.

MATTERS SUBSEQUENT TO THE END OF THE FINANCIAL YEAR (a) Subsequent to year end, 2,400,000 Class E Performance Rights lapsed. (b) Nanadie Well Copper Project In July 2020, the Group reached an agreement with Cyprium Metals Limited (ASX: CYM) (“Cyprium”) to divest the Nanadie Well copper project near Meekatharra in the Murchison District of Western Australia. Horizon took 100% control of the Nanadie Well in the December quarter of 2019 following the withdrawal of its then joint venture partner. The divestment comprises exploration license E51/1040 and Mining License M51/887 covering 45km2. Under the Agreement, Cyprium will pay $1.5 million in cash and shares (priced on a 20 day VWAP basis) on the following terms: • • • • $250,000 in cash and $400,000 in Cyprium shares on completion $350,000 in Cyprium shares 12 months from completion $300,000 in Cyprium shares 24 months from completion $200,000 in Cyprium shares on a decision to mine from the tenure (c) Capital Raising In August 2020, the Group announced a Share Placement Plan for 115 million ordinary shares at $0.14 per share to raise $16.1 million before share issue costs. Settlement of the Placement will occur in two tranches: • • Tranche 1 comprises the issue of 57.5 million Placement Shares ($8.05 million) pursuant to Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A. No shareholder approval is required for the issue of shares in Tranche 1 which settled on 21 August 2020. Tranche 2, which is subject to shareholder approval at a General Meeting to be held on 25 September 2020, comprises the issue of a further 57.5 million Placement Shares ($8.05 million). New shares issued under the Placement will rank equally with existing ordinary shares on issue. Proceeds from the Placement and existing cash reserves will be used for the accelerated reserve conversion and resource growth exploration drilling program which will commence in September 2020. Drilling will comprise reverse circulation and diamond drilling at the core Boorara, Binduli, Rose Hill and Teal gold project areas. (d) In July 2020, Mr Peter Bilbe stepped down as Chairman, remaining as Non-Executive Director and Mr Ashok Parekh assumed the role of Chairman. There are no other matters or circumstances that have arisen since 30 June 2020 that have or may significantly affect the operations, results, or state of affairs of the Group in future financial periods. LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS In the opinion of the Directors it would prejudice the interests of the Group to provide additional information, beyond that reported in this Annual Report, relating to likely developments in the operations of the Group and the expected results of those operations in financial years subsequent to 30 June 2020. COVID-19 IMPACT The full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve at the date of this report. The Company is therefore uncertain as to the full impact that the pandemic will have on its financial condition, liquidity and future results of operations during 2020 or 2021. Management continues to actively monitor the global situation and its impact on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity, operations, suppliers, industry and workforce. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak and the global responses to curb its spread, the Company is not able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on its results of operations, financial condition or liquidity for the 2020/21 financial year. The health and wellbeing of all Horizon employees remain a key focus in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The work practices and measures implemented to mitigate COVID-19 related risks have so far proven successful with no known COVID-19 cases across our workforce and minimal disruption to our operations to date. DIVIDENDS PAID OR RECOMMENDED Since the end of the previous financial year, no amount has been paid or declared by way of dividend. The Directors do not recommend that any dividend be paid.

Horizon Minerals Limited is a company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange. The financial report was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of Directors dated 30 September 2020. The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the Group in the preparation of the financial report. 1a Basis of preparation These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board, Australian Accounting Interpretations and the Corporations Act 2001. The functional and presentation currency of Horizon Minerals Limited is in Australian Dollars. Compliance with IFRSs The financial statements of Horizon Minerals Limited also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). New Accounting Standards and Interpretations In the year ended 30 June 2020, the Company has reviewed and adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to its operations and effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2019. 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 company for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2020. The Company has also reviewed all new Standards and Interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective for the year ended 30 June 2020. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no impact, material or otherwise, of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on its business and, therefore, no change is necessary to Company accounting policies. 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. Critical Accounting Estimates The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 30. 1b Principles of consolidation (i) Subsidiaries The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Horizon Minerals Limited and its controlled entities, Black Mountain Gold Ltd and MacPhersons Resources Limited. MacPhersons Resources Limited was acquired on 14 June 2019 pursuant to a Scheme of Arrangement (refer to Note 24) including its subsidiaries (refer Note 27). As at 30 June 2020, Horizon Minerals Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in this financial report as the Consolidated Entity or the Group. Control exists where the Company has the capacity to dominate the decision-making in relation to the financial and operating policies of another entity so that the other entity operates with the Company to achieve the objectives of the Company. All inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the Group, including any unrealised profits and losses have been eliminated on consolidation. Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of the consolidated entities are shown separately in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and consolidated statement of financial position respectively. Where control of an entity is obtained during a financial year, its results are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the date on which control commences. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 1b Principles of consolidation (continued) (ii) Joint ventures Joint ventures entered into are not separate legal entities but rather are contractual arrangements between the participants for the sharing of costs and output and do not in themselves generate revenue and profit. Details of the joint ventures are set out in Note 32. 1c Income tax The income tax expense or revenue for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the national income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted for each jurisdiction. The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences to measure the deferred tax asset or liability. An exception is made for certain temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability. No deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to these temporary differences if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in controlled entities where the parent 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. Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in other comprehensive income/equity are also recognised directly in other comprehensive income/equity. The charge for current income tax expense is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any non- assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or are substantially enacted by the reporting date. 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 economic entity will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law. The Group is consolidated for income tax purposes effective 1 July 2016. 1d Revenue recognition Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns, trade allowances and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. Revenue is recognised for major business activities as follows: (i) Sale of gold Revenue from the sale of goods is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue is recognised when the significant risk and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, recovery of the consideration is probable, the associated costs and possible return of goods can be estimated reliably and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. (ii) Interest income Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets. 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 1d Revenue recognition (continued) (iii) Other services Other debtors are recognised at the amount receivable and are due for settlement within 30 days from the end of the month in which services were provided. 1e Mineral prospects and exploration expenditure thereon The Group’s policy with respect to exploration expenditure is to write off all costs unless the directors and management are of the view that there is a reasonable prospect that the costs may be recovered in future income years. Costs that may reasonably be expected to be recovered are capitalised to the statement of financial position as a non-current asset and accumulated separately for each area of interest. Such expenditure comprises net direct cash and where applicable, an apportionment of related overhead expenditure. Each area of interest is limited to a size related to a known or probably mineral resource capable of supporting a mining operation. Expenditure is not carried forward in respect of any area of interest unless the Group’s right to tenure to that area of interest is current. A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest. At 30 June 2020, the Directors considered that the carrying value of the mineral tenement interests of the Group was as shown in the accounts and did not need adjusting. Exploration and evaluation assets are transferred to Development Phase assets once technical feasibility and commercial viability of an area of interest is demonstrable. Exploration and evaluation assets are tested for impairment, and any impairment loss is recognised, prior to being reclassified. 1f Mine properties and mining assets Mine properties represents the acquisition cost and/or accumulated exploration, evaluation and development expenditure in respect of areas of interest in which mining has commenced. Mine development costs are deferred until commercial production commences. When commercial production is achieved mine development is transferred to mine properties, at which time it is amortised on a unit of production basis based on ounces mined over the total estimated resources related to this area of interest. Significant factors considered in determining the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the project are the completion of a feasibility study, the existence of sufficient resources to proceed with development and approval by the board of Directors to proceed with development of the project. Deferred stripping costs Stripping is the process of removing overburden and waste materials from surface mining operations to access the ore. Stripping costs are capitalised during the development of a mine and are subsequently amortised over the life of mine on a units of production basis, where the unit of account is ounces of gold sold. 1g Non-derivative financial assets existing on or acquired after 1 July 2009 The classification and measurement model for financial assets existing on or acquired after 1 July 2009, the date the Group adopted AASB 9, is outlined below. Financial assets at amortised cost and the effective interest rate method A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if the following conditions are met: • • • the objective of the Group’s business model is to hold the asset to collect contractual cash flows; the contractual cash flows give rise, on specified dates, to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding; and the group does not irrevocably elect at initial recognition to measure the instrument at fair value through profit or loss to minimise an accounting mismatch. 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 1g Non-derivative financial assets existing on or acquired after 1 July 2009 (continued) Amortised cost instruments are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition the carrying amount of amortised cost instruments is determined using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets other than equity instruments that do not meet the above amortised cost criteria are measured at fair value through profit or loss. This includes financial assets that are held for trading and investments that the Group manages based on their fair value in accordance with the Group’s documented risk management and/or investment strategy. Equity instruments are measured at fair value through profit or loss unless the Group irrevocably elects at initial recognition to present the changes in fair value in other comprehensive income as described below. Upon initial recognition, financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss are recognised at fair value and any transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss when incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value, and changes therein are recognised in profit or loss. 1h Impairment of assets Mining tenements assets and other intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other assets 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 inflows which are largely independent of the cash flows from other assets or groups of assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date. 1i Plant and equipment Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less depreciation and impairment. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. 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 Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit and loss during the financial period in which they are incurred. Depreciation is calculated on a diminishing value basis to write off the net cost of each item of plant and equipment over its expected useful life to the Group. The expected useful lives are as follows: Plant and equipment 5 - 10 years. 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 (Note 1h). Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in the profit and loss. 1j Trade receivables Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost, less provision for doubtful debts. Trade receivables are due for settlement no more than 30 days from the date of recognition. Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts that are known to be uncollectible are written off. An allowance account (provision for impairment of trade receivables) is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of receivables. The amount of the provision is recognised in the profit and loss. 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 1k 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, together with assets ordered before the end of the financial year. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. 1l Employee benefits (i) Wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and annual 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 has been accrued as at 30 June 2020. (ii) Long service leave The liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experiences of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on national government bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. Long service leave has been accrued as at 30 June 2020. (iii) Share-based payments Share-based compensation benefits are provided to directors through the granting of options and performance rights. The fair value of options and performance rights granted by the Group are recognised as an employee benefits expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair value of the options and performance rights granted, which includes any market performance conditions but excludes the impact of any service and non-market performance vesting conditions and the impact of any non-vesting conditions. Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options and performance rights that are expected to vest. The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions are to be satisfied. At the end of each period, the entity revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to vest based on the non-marketing vesting conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in profit or loss, with a corresponding adjustment to equity. 1m Cash and cash equivalents For statement of cashflows presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid instruments 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. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position. 1n Borrowings Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in the profit and loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities, which are not incremental costs relating to the actual draw-down of the facility, are recognised as prepayments and amortised on a straight- line basis over the term of the facility. Borrowings are classified 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. 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 1o Leases AASB 16 replaces AASB 117 Leases. AASB 16 removes the classification of leases as either operating leases or finance leases-for the lessee – effectively treating all leases as finance leases. AASB 16 is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2019. Impact on operating leases AASB 16 will change how the Company accounts for leases previously classified as operating leases under AASB 117, which were off-balance sheet. On initial application of AASB 16, for all leases (except as noted below), the Company will: • Recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position, initially measured at the present value of the future lease payments. • Recognise depreciation of right-of-use assets and interest on lease liabilities in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. • Separate the total amount of cash paid into a principal portion (presented within financing activities) and interest (presented within operating activities) in the consolidated cash flow statement. Lease incentives (e.g. rent-free period) will be recognised as part of the measurement of the right- of-use assets and lease liabilities whereas under AASB 117 they resulted in the recognition of a lease liability incentive, amortised as a reduction of rental expenses on a straight-line basis. Under AASB 16, right-of-use assets will be tested for impairment in accordance with AASB 136 Impairment of Assets. This will replace the previous requirement to recognise a provision for onerous lease contracts. For short-term leases (lease term of 12 months or less) and leases of low-value assets (such as personal computers and office furniture), the Company will opt to recognise a lease expense on a straight-line basis as permitted by AASB 16. The Company has applied AASB 16 retrospectively with the effect of initially applying this standard recognised at the date of initial application, being 1 July 2019. There is no material impact to profit or loss or net assets on the adoption of this new standard in the current or comparative periods, refer to Note 13 for further detail. 1p Fair value estimation The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes. The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as publicly traded derivatives, and trading and available-for-sale securities) is based on quoted market prices at the reporting date. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Company is the current bid price: the appropriate quoted market price for financial liabilities is the current ask price. The nominal value less estimated credit adjustments of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values. 1q Goods and services tax Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated goods and services tax (GST), unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. 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 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. 1r Contributed equity Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction from the proceeds. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options for the acquisition of a business are not included in the cost of acquisition as part of the purchase consideration. 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 1r Contributed equity (continued) If the entity reacquires its own equity instruments, e.g. as the result of a share buy-back, those instruments are deducted from equity and the associated shares are cancelled. No gain or loss is recognised in the profit or loss and the consideration paid including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is recognised directly in equity. 1s Provisions Provisions for legal claims recognised when the Group has a present legal obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small. Provisions are measured at the present value of management's best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date. The discount rate used to determine the present value reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. 1t 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 has been identified as the steering committee that makes strategic decisions. 1u 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 assets for its intended use or sale. Other borrowing costs are expensed. 1v Earnings per share (i) (ii) Basic earnings per share Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year. Diluted earnings per share Diluted earnings per share adjusted 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. 1w Rehabilitation costs The Group’s mining, extraction and processing activities give rise to obligations for site rehabilitation. Rehabilitation obligations can include facility decommissioning and dismantling; removal or treatment of waste materials; land rehabilitation; and site restoration. The extent of work required and the associated costs are estimated based on feasibility estimates using current restoration standards and techniques. Provisions for the cost of each rehabilitation program are recognised at the time that environmental disturbance occurs. Rehabilitation provisions are initially measured at the expected value of future cash flows required to rehabilitate the relevant site. At each reporting date the rehabilitation liability is re-measured to account for any new disturbance, updated cost estimates, changes to the estimated lives of operations and new regulatory requirements. 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 1x Business combinations The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations, including business combinations involving entities or business under common control, regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary comprises the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred, and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred also includes the fair value of any contingent consideration arrangement and the fair value of any pre−existing equity interest in the subsidiary. Acquisition−related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable 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 excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non−controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition−date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the Group’s share of the net identifiable assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If those amounts are less than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the subsidiary acquired and the measurement of all amounts has been reviewed, the difference is recognised directly in profit or loss as a bargain purchase. If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, the Group reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. These provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period (see above), or additional assets or liabilities recognised, to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognised as of that date. 2 INTEREST INCOME 3 OTHER INCOME ATO Cash Flow Boost Profit on sale of tenement interest Recovery of administration costs Other income 4 EXPENSES Profit/(loss) before income tax includes the following specific expenses: Cost of sales Mining and processing costs* Cost of sales Building and occupancy costs 2020 $ 2019 $ 58,382 58,557 186,776 - 2,684,450 2,500,000 122,658 120,526 62,559 137,677 3,056,443 2,758,203 - - 1,719,380 1,719,380 Rental expense - right of use asset 26,645 70,495 Rental abatement – COVID-19 relief – right of use asset Interest expense – right of use asset (refer Note 13) Amortisation – right of use asset (refer Note 13) Other Building and occupancy costs (12,382) 12,413 44,330 42,443 113,449 - - - 15,808 86,303 Scheme of Arrangement transaction costs (refer Note 24) - 1,734,427 * Mining and processing costs for year ended 30 June 2019 includes balance of monies paid in settlement of mining dispute as per ASX announcement dated 19 December 2018, net of amounts previously set aside.

Disclosures relating to Key Management Personnel are set out in Note 21 and the Remuneration Report. 26b Subsidiaries See Note 27 for further details regarding subsidiaries. 27 INVESTMENT IN CONTROLLED ENTITIES The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of the following subsidiaries in accordance with the accounting policy described in Note 1(b): Name of Entity Direct Subsidiaries Black Mountain Gold Ltd MacPhersons Resources Limited CGP Minerals Pty Ltd CGP Assets Pty Ltd Indirect Subsidiaries Kalgoorlie Ore Treatment Company Pty Ltd Polymetals (WA) Pty Ltd Country of Incorporation Class of Shares Equity Holding 2020 % 2019 % Australia Australia Australia Australia Australia Australia Ordinary Ordinary Ordinary Ordinary Ordinary Ordinary 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 MacPhersons Resources Limited was acquired on 14 June 2019 pursuant to a Scheme of Arrangement (refer to Note 24). The indirect subsidiaries are direct subsidiaries of MacPhersons Resources Limited. Horizon Minerals Ltd, incorporated in Australia, is the ultimate parent entity of the Group. 28 CONTINGENT LIABILITIES 28a Native title claims have been made with respect to areas which include tenements in which Horizon Minerals Limited and the controlled entity have interests. The entities are unable to determine the prospects for success or otherwise of the claims and, in any event, whether or not, and to what extent, the claims may significantly affect them or their projects. 28b Security bonds are held with respect to tenements held in Northern Territory. Bonds are set by the Department of Primary Industry and Resources, however there is no certainty that such bonds will be adequate to cover any environmental damage. Horizon Minerals Limited and its controlled entities are not able to determine the nature or extent of any further liability in view of changing environmental requirements. 28c Horizon Minerals Limited has been advised of a potential liability arising as a result of the storage of laboratory waste material at the White Range project site and is currently awaiting approval from the NT Environmental Protection Authority to bury the material at White Range. As at the date of this report, the potential liability for the rectification remains unquantifiable. 28d The Company announced to the ASX on 30 April 2018, that it had received a purported cost variation claim from Resource Mining relating to the Teal Stage 1 project up until September 2017 and that it was working to resolve this and any additional claims that may be forthcoming from Resource Mining. The Company subsequently received a further purported cost variation claim from Resource Mining for Teal Stages 1 and 2 through to project completion. This further purported cost variation claim adopts a different methodology to the previous claim. In December 2018, Horizon and Resource Mining agreed to a full and final settlement of this matter. The total disputed variation claims amount was split on a 50:50 basis, while the remaining net operating cash was split 75% to Horizon and 25% to Resource Mining as originally agreed under the mining contract between the parties. 29 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks; market risk (including fair value interest rate risk foreign currency risk and price risk), credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow interest rate risk. The Group's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group. Risk management is carried out by the Board of Directors, who identify, evaluate and manage financial risks as they consider appropriate. 29a Market risk Price risk The Group is exposed to equity securities price risk. This arises from investments held by the Group and classified on the statement of financial position as financial assets at fair value through profit and loss of $4,266,342 (2019: $605,461). The investments assets are classified as financial asset at fair value through profit and loss and any changes to their value is recognised in profit and loss when incurred. The group have used an equity price change of 70% upper and lower representing a reasonable possible change based upon the weighted average historic share price volatility over the last 12 months on the investment portfolio held. If the value of the investments held had moved in accordance with the volatility, and all other factors kept constant, the impact on the profit and loss for the year ended 30 June 2020 would have been ± $2,896,439 (2019: ± $423,823). Fair value interest rate risk Refer to (e) below. 29b Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group is a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers. Presently, the Group undertakes mining, exploration and evaluation activities exclusively in Australia. At the balance sheet date there were no significant concentrations of credit risk. (i) Cash and cash equivalents The Group limits its exposure to credit risk by only investing in liquid securities and only with major Australian financial institutions. (ii) Trade and other receivables The Group’s trade and other receivables relate to gold sales, GST refunds and other income. The Group has determined that its credit risk exposure on all other trade receivables is low, as customers are considered to be reliable and have short contractual payment terms. Management does not expect any of these counterparties to fail to meet their obligations. The carrying amount of the Group’s financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date was: Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Total Carrying Amount 2020 $ 2019 $ 5,895,535 4,951,288 3,729,020 557,218 9,624,555 5,508,506 29 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) 29c Liquidity risk Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities, the availability of funding through the ability to raise further funds on the market and the ability to close-out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, the Board aims at maintaining flexibility in funding through management of its cash resources. Maturities of financial liabilities. 30 June 2020 Group Less than 6 months 6 – 12 months Between 1 and 2 years Between 2 and 5 years Over 5 years Total contractual cash flows Carrying Amount (assets)/ liabilities Interest Rate (% p.a.)

AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures requires disclosure of fair value measurements by level of the following fair value measurement hierarchy: (a) quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1), (b) inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices) (level 2), and (c) inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) (level 3). 29e Fair value measurements (continued) The following table presents the group’s assets and liabilities measured and recognised at fair value at 30 June 2020 and 30 June 2019: At 30 June 2020 Assets Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total - Trading Securities Other financial assets - Security deposits Total assets At 30 June 2019 Assets 4,266,342 257,927 4,524,269 - - - - - - 4,266,342 257,927 4,524,269 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss - Trading Securities Other financial assets - Security deposits Total assets 605,461 257,927 863,388 - - - - - - 605,461 257,927 863,388 The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as publicly traded derivatives, and trading and available-for-sale securities) is based on quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the group is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1. The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2. If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is the case for unlisted equity securities. Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include: • The use of quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments. 29f Capital risk management In employing its capital (or equity as it is referred to on the statement of financial position) the Group seeks to ensure that it will be able to continue as a going concern and provide value to shareholders by way of increased market capitalisation. The Group has invested its available capital in intangible assets such as acquiring and exploring mining tenements and in investments. As is appropriate at this stage, the Group is funded predominantly by equity. 30 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial 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 definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below. (i) Exploration & Evaluation Expenditure The Group’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation is set out in Note 1(e). If, after having capitalised expenditure under this policy, the Directors conclude that the Group is unlikely to recover the expenditure by future exploration or sale, then the relevant capitalised amount will be written off to the Statement of Comprehensive Income. 31 PARENT ENTITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION Current assets Non-current assets Total assets Current liabilities Non-current liabilities Total liabilities Net assets Equity Contributed equity Reserves Accumulated losses Total equity Profit/(Loss) for the year 32 JOINT VENTURES 2020 $ 2019 $ 8,426,112 7,459,106 42,545,639 39,060,120 50,971,751 46,519,226 5,201,313 1,783,235 220,235 100,000 5,421,548 1,883,235 45,550,203 44,635,991 51,439,580 49,746,534 1,817,330 1,166,406 (7,706,707) (6,276,949) 45,550,203 44,635,991 (1,429,758) (2,715,930) Horizon Minerals Limited and its controlled entity Black Mountain Gold Ltd (BMG) have interests in unincorporated joint ventures as follows: Name of Joint Venture Notes Exploration For 2020 2019 Otto Bore Nanadie Well*** Richmond a b c Gold Copper Vanadium 3% gross gold royalty 3% gross gold royalty 100% 75% 100% 100% A joint venture is not a separate legal entity. It is a contractual arrangement between the participants for the sharing of costs and output and does not in itself generate revenue and profit. 32a Barrick (PD) Australia Limited, through its subsidiary Barrick (Plutonic) Limited, earned a 75% interest in the Otto Bore Tenements. Horizon elected in 2000 to assign the tenements to Plutonic and revert to a 3% gross gold royalty. 32b In December 2013, Mithril Resources Ltd (MTH) and its wholly owned subsidiary Minex (West) Pty Ltd entered into a farm-in and joint venture agreement with Horizon Minerals Limited to acquire up to 75% interest of the Nanadie Well Gold Project. Minex may acquire a 60% interest in the Tenements by expending $2M, Minex may elect to acquire a further 15% interest (for a total 75% interest) by expending a further $2M in a two year period with a minimum ground exploration cost of at least $400,000 each year of the 2 year period. ***The Nanadie Well project was divested subsequent to 30 June 2020. Refer to Note 34(b) for further detail. 32c In March 2017, the Company finalised a strategic development JV with Richmond Vanadium Technology Pty Ltd (“RVT”) (formerly AXF Vanadium Pty Ltd), a wholly owned subsidiary of the AXF Group. The JV covers Horizon’s 100% interest in the Richmond vanadium project in North West Queensland which include metal rights at the nearby Julia Creek project which is owned by Global Oil Shale Plc. The project tenements cover 1,520km 2 of Cretaceous Toolebuc Formation. In February 2018, RVT had committed to the second stage expenditure commitment of A$5 million over 3 years inclusive of a Feasibility Study. 33 JOINT OPERATIONS A Mining and Finance Heads of Agreement was executed with Resource Mining Pty Ltd (“RM”) on 7 October 2016 in relation to the development of the Teal Gold Project Stage 1 (TS1) as announced to the ASX on 19 July 2016. Under the agreement, the net operating cash from mining operations was split 75% to Horizon and 25% to RM. As at 30 June 2018, final ore processing at TS1 was completed, and profit shares due to RM had been included as payables at 30 June 2018. In December 2018, RM and Horizon agreed a further settlement of disputed amounts and all payments were made pursuant to the settlement agreement by 31 December 2018. Refer to Note 28(d) for further information. 34 EVENTS OCCURRING AFTER REPORTING DATE (a) Subsequent to year end, 2,400,000 Class E Performance Rights lapsed. (b) Nanadie Well Copper Project In July 2020, the Group reached an agreement with Cyprium Metals Limited (ASX: CYM) (“Cyprium”) to divest the Nanadie Well copper project near Meekatharra in the Murchison District of Western Australia. Horizon took 100% control of the Nanadie Well in the December quarter of 2019 following the withdrawal of its then joint venture partner. The divestment comprises exploration license E51/1040 and Mining License M51/887 covering 45km2. Under the Agreement, Cyprium will pay $1.5 million in cash and shares (priced on a 20 day VWAP basis) on the following terms: • • • • $250,000 in cash and $400,000 in Cyprium shares on completion $350,000 in Cyprium shares 12 months from completion $300,000 in Cyprium shares 24 months from completion $200,000 in Cyprium shares on a decision to mine from the tenure (c) Capital Raising In August 2020, the Group announced a Share Placement Plan for 115 million ordinary shares at $0.14 per share to raise $16.1 million before share issue costs. Settlement of the Placement will occur in two tranches: • • Tranche 1 comprises the issue of 57.5 million Placement Shares ($8.05 million) pursuant to Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A. No shareholder approval is required for the issue of shares in Tranche 1 which settled on 21 August 2020. Tranche 2, which is subject to shareholder approval at a General Meeting to be held on 25 September 2020, comprises the issue of a further 57.5 million Placement Shares ($8.05 million). New shares issued under the Placement will rank equally with existing ordinary shares on issue. Proceeds from the Placement and existing cash reserves will be used to progress its exploration activities over various projects. (d) In July 2020, Mr Peter Bilbe stepped down as Chairman, remaining as Non-Executive Director and Mr Ashok Parekh assumed the role of Chairman. There are no other matters or circumstances that have arisen since 30 June 2020 that have or may significantly affect the operations, results, or state of affairs of the Group in future financial periods.     Additional information required by the Australian Stock Exchange Limited Listing Rules, and not disclosed elsewhere in this report.
