Chairman’s Report

On behalf of the Board of Directors of Intra Energy Corporation Limited ("IEC", "Intra Energy" or "the Company"),
it is my pleasure to present my comments on the operations and the future directions of the Company for this
Annual Financial Report for 2021.

Over the last two years the Board of IEC has proceeded to remove the company from coal mining and instead
develop  in gold  and  other  minerals  in  Mozambique  and  gold/copper/nickel  exploration  and  development  in
Australia.

In doing this the Board has acknowledged that global warming and climate change are very real and definable
threats to the future of human society and that a reduction in carbon emissions are essential. However, it also
acknowledges that the major players in the release of carbon are the wealthy industrialised nations and that less-
developed  economies  should  not  be  penalised  in  the  utilisation  of  fossil  fuels,  particularly  in  support  of
industrialisation and consequent poverty alleviation. The operations of the Tancoal Energy coal mine in Tanzania
remains important to East African progress and IEC will endeavour to work with parties prepared to support the
continued  operation  of  the  mining  operations,  while  proceeding  to  develop  mineral  mining operations  and
reducing its carbon footprint.

An Application has been approvd for a prospective lease on land at Louth, north of Cobar, NSW with drill ready
targets. The Lease will be 100% owned by IEC. The Talowla Project has potential for high-grade copper under
shallow cover.

Discussions are underway with a WA exploration company for IEC to acquire a share in the exploration of a very
interesting Ni-Cu-PGE project in WA which application is currently pending.

Further  concessions  are  being  reviewed in  Australia. For  the  last  two  years  IEC  has  been  evaluating  prime
opportunities in exploration properties in Australia to supplement its interests in the Mozambique gold project.

Intrafrican  Resources  Limited  (Intrafrican), a  wholly-owned subsidiary  of  IEC,  registered  in  Mauritius, has
invested in an attractive gold concession in Mozambique,  a nation mainly unexplored but with huge mineral
resources and a regulatory framework conducive to the realities of mining. Intrafrican currently owns 15% of
Intra Minerals Limited (IML), a company registered in Mauritius which owns 95% of the exciting Minas Do Lurio
Gold  Project  in  central/northern  Mozambique.
Intrafrican  is  looking  to  increase its equity  in  IML  by  private
placement and to also enable IML to continue the exploration programme in the Minas do Lurio Gold Project in
Mozambique with a targeted drilling campaign.

Considerable work has been completed to define the drilling campaign with substantial cost reduction. Due to
the focussed nature of the drilling, costs have been reduced from US$1.3 Million to US$400,000. An additional
US$200,000 will be necessary for the purchase of small dredges to enable commencement of trial alluvial mining
activities in 2022.

IEC’s 70% ownership of Tancoal Energy Limited (“Tancoal”) which operates the Ngaka coal mine in south west
Tanzania which is also 30% owned by the National Development Corporation of Tanzania (“NDC”) is manned
exclusively by Tanzanians. Thermal coal as a fuel is becoming increasingly unpopular in the world and the ability
to  return  anything  to  shareholders  has  become  impossible  in  Tanzania  due  to  declining  markets, increased
competition and Government imposts considered by the Company to be arbitrary and unfair.

Tancoal’s 2021 production was 236,155 tonnes (2020: 496,393) tonnes. Stocks were maintained sufficiently for
the demand during the year.

IEC  recorded  a  loss  after  tax and  before  minorities of  (A$8,210,000) (2020: loss of  A$17,186,000). The  loss
included (A$5,329,000) impairment of the Tancoal mining and exploration assets due mainly to imposition of
Government royalties.

IEC continued to maintain its active presence in community development through the Government approved
Local  Content  Plan  and  Tancoal’s  partnership  with  the  local  Women's  Group  and  various  other  projects  and
support given to the local communities.

Benjamin Dunn was appointed Managing Director of IEC on 23 April 2021 and will lead the Company’s focus on
Australian activities.  Jim Shedd will remain as CEO and will oversee the move from coal and the development of
IML in Mozambique.

Chairman’s Report

Marc Schwartz resigned from the Board on 9 February 2021.

The development of Intrafrican and gold, copper and nickel exploration interests in Australia promises to be the
sustainable and exciting future for IEC.

Review of Operations

AUSTRALIAN MINERAL EXPLORATION

The Board of Intra Energy Corporation Limited (“IEC” or the “Company”) has over the last two years decided to
remove itself from fossil fuel production and instead focus on gold development in Mozambique and gold/copper
exploration in Australia.

There has been increased interest in the coal operations by African parties and IEC is discussing approaches for
participation by interested parties to enable it to exit.

An Application has been lodged for a highly prospective lease on land at Louth, north of Cobar, NSW with drill
ready targets. The Lease will be 100% owned by Intra Eastern Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of IEC. The
Talowla Project has potential for high-grade copper under shallow cover. According to Mr Kim Stanton-Cook,
IEC’s  consulting  geologist,  Talowla  exhibits  interesting  magnetics  and  electromagnetics  with  priority  drilling
targets established. Mr Stanton-Cook was involved in drilling in the area in the 70’s. Advice has subsequently
been received that the application has been approved.

Discussions are underway with a WA exploration company for IEC to acquire a share in the exploration of a very
interesting Ni-Cu-PGE project in WA which application is currently pending.

For the last two years IEC has been evaluating prime

opportunities  in  exploration  properties  in  Australia  to  supplement  its  interests  in  the  Mozambique  gold
project. The focus is on gold, copper and nickel minerals.

MOZAMBIQUE GOLD

Intrafrican Resources Limited (“Intrafrican”), a fully owned subsidiary of IEC registered in Mauritius has invested
in Intra Minerals Limited (“IML“), a company also registered in Mauritius.  Intrafrican currently owns 15% of IML
which is the 95% owner of the Lurio Gold Project in Mozambique.  Intrafrican is looking to increase it’s equity in
IML by private placement and to also enable IML to continue the exploration programme in the Minas do Lurio
Gold Project in Mozambique with a targeted drilling campaign.

Considerable work has been completed to define the drilling campaign with substantial cost reduction. Due to
the focussed nature of the drilling, costs have been reduced from US$1.3 Million to US$400,000. An additional
US$200,000  will  be  necessary  for  the  purchase  of  small  dredges  to  enable  commencement  of  trial  mining
activities in 2022.

The exploration project currently comprises a 168.56 km2 large prospecting license (8416L) in the historically
underexplored  Lúrio  Belt.    An  initial  trenching  and  sampling  program  has  been  completed  at  Savane,  a
prospective area within the prospecting license. Samples of quartz and soil have been taken, crushed, washed
and processed indicating gold grades between 4 and 6 g/t with high recovery rates.

An independent expert, Benedikt Steiner (CGeol EurGeol) retained by IML to advise on the project has completed
a  non-JORC  technical  report.    Mr  Steiner  comments  that  the  project  represents  a  significant  first-mover
opportunity  into  a  previously  unrecognised  gold  mineralisation  trend  along  the  Neoproterozoic  Lúrio  Belt.
Prospecting  and  early  stage  exploration  campaigns  during  2017-2020  have  confirmed  a  shallow  exploration
target  at  the  Savane  locality.  Multiple  alluvial  and  eluvial  occurrences  of  free  and  refractory  gold,  as  well  as
structurally-controlled bedrock mineralisation are hosted in quartz veins and occur in deformed granulites and
granulitic  gneisses.  The  stacked,  2-7  cm  wide  quartz  veins  are  generally  shallowly  (10-20°)  dipping  and
predominantly occur along open East-West trending structural corridors, defined by the intersection of regional
shear and thrust faults.

MINING OPERATIONS

IEC’s  100%  owned  subsidiary,  Intra  Energy  Tanzania  Limited  (“IETL”),  owns  a  70%  interest  in  Tancoal  Energy
Limited (“Tancoal”), a joint venture with the National Development Corporation of Tanzania (“NDC”), which holds
the remaining 30% interest. Tancoal was granted a Mining Licence (“ML”) by the Tanzanian Government on 18
August  2011  and  commenced  mining  and  supply  of  coal  to  domestic  and  regional  industrial  customers  in
Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Zambia and Malawi.

Review of Operations

IEC’s flagship project, the Tancoal Mine, is a project of national significance, and remains the major operating
coal mine in Tanzania.

Tancoal produces a high quality thermal coal with an energy of 6,000K~6,300Kcals/kg which consistently meets
client specifications.

Tancoal has been producing and selling coal in Tanzania since 2011. Coal from the mine is transported on a 52
kilometre haul road to the Sales Point at Kitai where the coal undergoes final processing and is then sold and
loaded into trucks provided by the respective consumers. Its main mining licence has been renewed subsequent
to 30 June 2021.

OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH, SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT (“OHSE”)

Like any other financial year, OHSE remain the priority to IEC. Tancoal continued to monitor and make sure we
minimize environmental impact caused by our operations by following the Environmental Impact Assessment
Plan and regulatory requirements, and ensure safe work practice as required by OSHA.

Like previous financial years, the annual tree planting programme again saw Tancoal transplant a total of 10,000
tree seedlings of indigenous species. Trees were planted around the mine site and stockpile area at the mine,
villages surrounding the mine site, the haul road and stockpile area at the Kitai sales point and others were given
to the Kitai Prison which is close to the Kitai sales point. We have also isolated tree farms in two villages of which
Tancoal is taking care as sample farms to surrounding communities.

Upgrade of Storm water trenches and ponds were done before the rainy season in accordance with the mine
development plan. The monitoring of acid water and suppression of mine dust continues. Blasting is controlled
by monitoring sound level, vibration and dust emission during blasting to ensure they do not exceed the required
standard set by Tanzania Bureau of Standard (TBS).

Annual Environmental Audit was conducted as per directive from National Environmental Management Council
(NEMC) as required by the law.

EXPLORATION

Gold  exploration  continues  through  an  associated  company,  Intra  Minerals  Limited  (Mauritius)  in  the  Cabo
Delgado and Nampula Provinces of Mozambique. The initial gold exploration programme ended with the advent
of  the  wet  season in  Africa  and  capital  requirements. Gold  and  other  minerals  are  being  explored  by IEC  in
Australia and Intrafrican (Mauritius).

Coal  exploration  is  concentrated  on tenements  being  maintained  in  good  standing  and  supporting  mine
development work.

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (“CSR”)

COMMUNITY

At IEC our approach to corporate social responsibility (“CSR”) is about partnership with local communities to
develop  initiatives  to  provide  social  and  economic  development  as  well  as  environmental  protection  and
conservation in the areas IEC operate. By developing partnerships with the communities, IEC is helping to foster
sustainable development, share the socio-economic benefits from its operations and alleviate poverty.

Some of the key challenges associated with investing in Africa relate to governance, capacity building, human
rights,  environment  and  social  issues.  The  mining  industry  in  Tanzania  is  committed  to  continue  to  work  in
conjunction with the government and local communities to put in place programs and develop projects that have
a  tangible  outcome,  and  priority  is  given  to  projects  that  alleviate  poverty,  contribute  to  building  skills  and
support women’s and youth economic empowerment, especially through education and business ownership.

In implementing the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) rules, Tancoal again submitted CSR for 2021 to the
local Authority, whereby we have started building two classrooms for the Mtunduwaro village Primary school.

The Mbalawala Women’s Organisation (“MWO”) in Tanzania that has been supported by the company for many
years continues to go from strength to strength as their operations expand with the growth of the mine.

In Mozambique IML follows ESG requirements and hires from within the local community and maintains a close
relationship to develop suitable CSR initiatives once development work re-commences.

Similar ESG/CSR standards will be applied in Australia to enhance the sustainability of IEC development projects.

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)

This report outlines the remuneration arrangements in place for key management personnel of the Company, in
connection with the management of the affairs of the entity and its subsidiaries, during the year to 30 June 2021.

Key management personnel have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities
of  the  Company  and  the  Consolidated  Entity,  including  Directors  of  the  Company  and  other  executives.  Key
management  personnel  comprise  the  Directors  of  the  Company  and  executives  of  the  Company  and  the
Consolidated Entity.

A. REMUNERATION POLICY

Remuneration Committee

At 30 June 2021 the function of the Remuneration Committee (“the Committee”) was carried out by the Board.

The function of the Board in fulfilling its corporate governance responsibilities with respect to remuneration is
by reviewing and making appropriate recommendations on:

(a) Remuneration packages of Non-Executive Directors, Executive Directors and Senior Management;
(b) Employee incentive and equity-based plans including the appropriateness of performance hurdles and

total payments proposed.

Remuneration Policy

The Committee adopts the following policies on executive compensation and will bear these policies in mind
during remuneration reviews:

All key executives should be paid fair market Total Fixed Remuneration (“TFR”) for their employment, taking into
account their responsibilities and performance expectations.

All remuneration paid to Directors and Executives is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed. In August
2020 the Directors agreed to suspend payment of their fees until the Company had sufficient funds to make the
payments.  At 30 June 2021 the amount owed to Directors is A$460,722,

The Committee’s policy is to remunerate Non-Executive Directors at market rates for comparable companies for
time, commitment and responsibilities. The Committee determines payments to the Non-Executive Directors
and  reviews  their  remuneration  annually,  based  on  market  practice,  duties  and  accountability.    Independent
external advice is sought when needed. Fees for Non-Executive Directors are not linked to the performance of
the Consolidated Entity. The Directors are not required to hold any shares in the Company under the Company’s
Constitution.

Executive Directors’ and Senior Management Remuneration

In considering the Company’s Remuneration Policy and levels of remuneration for Executives, the Committee
makes recommendations that seek to:

 Motivate  Executive  Directors  and  Senior  Management  to  pursue  long  term  growth  and  success  of  the

Company within an appropriate control framework;

 Demonstrate a clear correlation between Executives’ performance and remuneration; and
 Align the interests of Executives with the long-term interests of the Company’s shareholders.

To  the  extent  that  the  Company  adopts  a  different  remuneration  structure  for  its  Executive  Directors,  the
Committee shall document its reasons for the purpose of disclosure to stakeholders.

Non-Executive Director Remuneration

In considering the Company’s Remuneration Policy and levels of remuneration for Non-Executive Directors, the
Committee is to ensure that:



Fees  paid  to  Non-Executive  Directors  are  within  the  aggregate  amount  approved  by  shareholders  and
recommendations are made to the Board with respect to the need for increases to this aggregate amount at
the Company’s Annual General Meeting;

 Non-Executive Directors are remunerated by way of fees (in the form of cash);

Page 14

Remuneration Report

 Non-Executive Directors are not provided with retirement benefits; and
 Non-Executive Directors are not entitled to participate in equity-based remuneration schemes designed for

Executives without due consideration and appropriate disclosure to the Company’s shareholders.

To the extent that the Company adopts a different remuneration structure for its Non-Executive Directors, the
Committee shall document its reasons for the purpose of disclosure to stakeholders.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF 
INTRA ENERGY CORPORATION LIMITED  

Opinion 
We have audited the financial report of Intra Energy Corporation Limited and its controlled 
entities (the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as 
at  30  June  2021,  the  consolidated  statement  of  profit  or  loss  and  other  comprehensive 
income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement 
of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, 
including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, 
and the directors’ declaration. 

In our opinion the accompanying financial report of the Intra Energy Corporation Limited 
and its controlled entities is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including: 

(a) 

(b) 

giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2021 and 
of its performance for the year ended on that date; and 
complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 
2001. 

Basis of Opinion 
We  conducted  our  audit  in  accordance  with  Australian  Auditing  Standards.  Those 
standards  require  that  we  comply  with  relevant  ethical  requirements  relating  to  audit 
engagements  and  plan  and  perform  the  audit  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about 
whether the financial report is free from material misstatement. Our responsibilities under 
those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibility section of our report. 
We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and 
the  ethical  requirements  of  the  Accounting  Professional  and  Ethical  Standards  Board’s 
APES  110  Code  of  Ethics  for  Professional  Accountants  (the  Code)  that  are  relevant  to 
our  audit  of  the  financial  report  in  Australia.  We  have  also  fulfilled  our  other  ethical 
responsibilities in accordance with the Code. 

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporation Act 2001 has 
been given to the directors of the company at the time of this auditor’s report. 

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

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern 
We draw attention to Note 1(a) in the financial report, which indicates that the Group has 
incurred a net loss of $8,210,000 for the year ended 30 June 2021, and as of that date 
the  Group’s  current  liabilities  exceeded  its  current  assets  by  $17,984,000.  As  stated  in 
Note 1(a), these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1(a), 
indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the  Group’s 
ability  to  continue  as  a  going  concern.  Our  opinion  is  not  modified  in  respect  of  this 
matter.

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  year  ended  30  June  2021.  These 
matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and

matters.

whether  the  other  information  is  materially  inconsistent  with  the  financial  report  or  our 
knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based

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 Australian 
Auditing  Standards  will  always  detect  a  material  misstatement  when 
it  exists. 
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or 
in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions 
of users taken on the basis of this financial report.  

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

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

-  Obtain  an  understanding  of  internal  control  relevant  to  the  audit  in  order  to  design 
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of 
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control. 

-  Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of 

accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors. 

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

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

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

AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIES 

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF 
INTRA ENERGY CORPORATION LIMITED  

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

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

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

Report on the Remuneration Report 
We  have  audited  the  remuneration  report  included  in  the  directors’  report  for  the  year 
ended 30 June 2021.  

In our opinion, the remuneration report of  Intra Energy Corporation Limited, for the year 
ended 30 June 2021, complies with s 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. 

Responsibilities 
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the 
remuneration  report  in  accordance  with  s  300A  of  the  Corporations  Act  2001.  Our 
responsibility  is  to  express  an  opinion  on  the  remuneration  report,  based  on  our  audit 
conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards.

Notes to the Financial Statements

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Intra Energy Corporation Limited (“IEC” or “the Company”) is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled
in Australia. The shares of Intra Energy Corporation Limited are publicly traded on the Australian Stock Exchange. The
consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2021 comprise the Company and its controlled entities
(together  referred  to  as “the  Group” or “Consolidated  Entity”)  and  the  Group’s  interests  in  associates  and  jointly
controlled entities. The Company is a for-profit entity and primarily is involved in the mining and sale of coal.

The consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board and authorised for issue on 30 September 2021.

A. Going Concern

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Group
will be able to continue trading, realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the ordinary course of business for a
period of at least 12 months from the date that these financial statements are approved.

The Directors note that:
















The Group made a loss after tax for the 2021 year of ($8.210m) (2020: loss $17.186m), non-cash depreciation and
amortisation charges of $1.52m (2020: $1.73m), past years royalty and clearance fees from 2011 to 2019 of $Nil
(2020: $16.36m)
As at balance date, the Group's current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $17.984m (2020: $18.764m). The
deficit  in  net  current  assets  included ($0.797m) (2020: $1.287m) overdraft  payable  to KCB, $0.751m  (2020:
$1.155m) payable to KCB Bank under loan facilities, equipment finance of $nil (2020: $1.022) and $2.722m for the
current portion of the past royalty and clearance fees on customers’ transport costs from 2011 to 2019 (2020:
$2.723m) which were included in current liabilities.

In assessing the appropriateness of using the going concern assumption, the Directors have noted:


Intra Energy Tanzania Limited (IETL) a company registered in Tanzania is the investor in the Tancoal joint venture,
IEC has not given a corporate guarantee to IETL or Tancoal.
KCB has continued to show support for Tancoal.
Sales were  lower  in  FY  2021 due to competition  from  small  miners  and the  impact  of  Covid-19  but business
conditions are expected to improve during FY 2022.  Tancoal remains the dominant coal miner and supplier to
industrial energy users in the Eastern African region and continues to implement productivity improvements.
Continued to implement a number of cost saving initiatives and enter into repayment arrangements with creditors
to  preserve  working  capital.    Discussions  continue  with  the  Ministry  of  Minerals  for  a  moratorium  on  the
assessment for past charges for royalty on transport to customers' business premises and discussions are also
continuing with the former contractor, Caspian, to extend the payment plan for the three final payments due to
tight cash flow from lower sales.
Recognised  that  the  interest-bearing  liabilities  relating  to  the  loans  from  KCB  are  secured  against  the  Group’s
mining equipment.
Noted JORC compliant resources of 357 million tonnes at the Tancoal mine in Tanzania.
Recognised that there is interest from parties in Tanzania to purchase the local business with its liabilities and that
negotiation to achieve this are proceeding positively.
Retained their confidence in the strategic value of the Group as it continues with its coal project in Tanzania  and
its focus  on the  development  of  the  gold  resources  in  Mozambique and gold,  copper  and  nickel exploration
projects in Australia.

After  considering  the  above  factors,  the  Directors  have  concluded  that  the  use  of  the  going  concern  assumption  is
appropriate. However if improved coal sales, cost saving initiatives or working capital improvements are not achieved
or if KCB Bank of Tanzania demands repayment of their combined $1.548m debt facility ($2.7442m at 30 June 2020) or
a contingent liability becomes immediately payable then the Group will be required to raise capital or divest assets to
continue as a going concern.

Page 31

Notes to the Financial Statements

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)

B.

Statement of compliance and basis of preparation

The  financial  report  is  a  general  purpose  financial  report  that  has  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  Australian
Accounting  Standards,  Australian  Accounting  Interpretations,  other  authoritative  pronouncements  of  the  Australian
Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.

The financial report of Intra Energy Corporation Limited (“IEC” or “the Company”) and controlled entities (“the Group”
or  “Consolidated  Entity”),  and  IEC  as  an  individual  parent  entity  (“IEC  Parent”  or  “Parent Entity”)  complies  with  all
Australian  equivalents  to  International  Financial  Reporting  Standards  (AIFRS)  and  International  Financial  Reporting
Standards (IFRS).

b.i Reporting Basis and Conventions

The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs other than financial assets
and financial liabilities for which the fair value basis of accounting has been applied.

There  are  no material  accounting  policies  adopted  by  the  Company  in  the  preparation  of  the financial  report.  The
accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.

Separate financial statements for IEC Parent, as an individual entity have not been presented within this financial report.
Financial information for IEC Parent as an individual entity is included in Note 31 as permitted by the Corporations Act
2001.

C. Principles of consolidation

The  consolidated  financial  statements  incorporate  all  assets,  liabilities and  results  of  the  parent  (Intra  Energy
Corporation Limited) and all of the subsidiaries.

c.i Business combinations

Business combinations occur where an acquirer obtains control over one or more businesses.

The purchase method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations, unless it is a combination involving
entities or businesses under common control.

Cost is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued or liabilities incurred or assumed at the
date of exchange. All transaction costs incurred in relation to business combinations, other than those associated with
the  issue  of  a  financial  instrument,  are  recognised  as  expenses  in  profit  or  loss  when  incurred. Where  equity
instruments are issued in an acquisition, the fair value of the instruments is their published market price as at the date
of exchange unless, in rare circumstances, it can be demonstrated that the published price at the date of exchange is
an unreliable indicator of fair value and that other evidence and valuation methods provide a more reliable measure of
fair value.  Transaction costs arising on the issue of equity instruments are expensed in the period incurred.

Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured
initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any non-controlling interest.  The excess
of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as
goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the Group’s share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the

subsidiary  acquired,  the  difference  is  recognised  directly  in  the  Consolidated  Statement  of Profit  or  Loss  and  Other
Comprehensive Income, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets required.

Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to
their present value as at the date of exchange.  The discount rate used is the entity’s incremental borrowing rate, being
the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and
conditions.

c.ii

Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries  are  entities  controlled  by  the  Group.  The  financial  statements  of  subsidiaries  are  included  in  the
consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

The parent controls an entity when it 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 over the entity. A list of the subsidiaries is provided
in Note 21.

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between group entities are fully
eliminated on consolidation.

Page 32

Notes to the Financial Statements

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed when necessary to align them with the policies adopted by
the Group.

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between group entities are fully
eliminated on consolidation.

The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed when necessary to align them with the policies adopted by
the Group.

c.iii Transactions eliminated on consolidation

All balances and transactions, arising from transactions between entities within the group are eliminated in preparing
the consolidated financial statements.

c.iv Non-controlling interests

Equity interests in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Group are presented as “non-controlling
interests”. Non-controlling interests are measured at their proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets
at  the  acquisition  date. Changes  in  the  Group’s  interest  in  a  subsidiary  that  do  not  result  in  a  loss  of  control  are
accounted for as equity transactions.

c.v Equity accounted investments

A joint venture is an arrangement in which the Group has joint control whereby the Group has rights to the net assets
of the arrangement, rather than rights to its assets and obligations for its liabilities. The financial statements include
the Group’s share of the total recognised gains and losses on an equity accounted basis subsequent to initial recognition
at cost, which includes transaction costs.

When the Group’s share of losses exceeds its interest in a joint venture, the Group’s carrying amount is reduced to $nil
and recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive
obligations or made payments on behalf of a joint venture.

Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s
interest  in  the  joint  ventures.  Unrealised  losses  are  also  eliminated  unless  the  transaction  provides  evidence  of  an
impairment  of  the  asset  transferred.  Accounting  policies  of  joint  ventures  have  been  changed  where  necessary  to
ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

Associates  are  all  entities  over  which  the  group  has  significant  influence  but  not  control  or  joint  control,  generally
accompanying a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associates are accounted
for using the equity method of accounting, after initially being recognised at cost.

D.

Income tax

Tax expense comprises current and deferred tax and is recognised in the statement of profit or loss or the statement of
comprehensive income according to the accounting treatment of the related transaction.

Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year and any adjustment to
tax in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax expense represents the tax expense in respect of the future tax consequences of recovering or settling the
carrying amount of an asset or liability. Both are calculated using tax rates for each jurisdiction, enacted or substantially
enacted at the reporting date, and for deferred tax those that are expected to apply when the asset is realised or the
liability is settled.

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for:


arising on the initial recognition or assets or liabilities, other than on a business combination, that affect neither
accounting or taxable profit;
arising from the recognition of goodwill; and
relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

E. Property, Plant and Equipment

Each class of plant and equipment is carried at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis. 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  which  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.

e.i Depreciation

The  depreciable  amount  of  all  fixed  assets  is  depreciated  on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the  asset’s  useful  life  to  the
consolidated group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.

The useful lives used for each class of depreciable asset are:

Class of fixed asset

Mining Plant and Equipment

Motor Vehicles

Office Equipment

Computer Equipment and Software

Leasehold Improvements

Useful life

5 to 15 years

4 to 10 years

4 to 8 years

3 years

25 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.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains or losses
are included in the profit or loss.

F.

Exploration, evaluation and acquisition expenditure

Acquisition costs are accumulated in respect of each separate area of interest. Acquisition costs are carried forward
where right of tenure of the area of interest is current and they are expected to be recouped through sale or successful
development  and  exploitation  of  the  area  of  interest  or,  where  exploration  and  evaluation  activities  in  the  area  of
interest have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable
reserves. Where an area of interest is abandoned or the Directors decide that it is not commercial, any accumulated
acquisition costs in respect of that area are written off in the financial period the decision is made. Each area of interest
is also reviewed at the end of each accounting period and accumulated acquisition costs written off to the extent that
they will not be recoverable in the future. Amortisation is not charged on acquisition costs carried forward in respect
of areas of interest in the development phase until production commences.

G.

Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories is based on average costs
over the relevant period of production and includes expenditure in accumulating the inventories, production costs and
other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition. Stockpile tonnages are verified by periodic
surveys.

H. Overburden removal costs

Overburden and other mine waste materials are often removed during the initial development of a mine site in order
to access the mineral deposit. This activity is referred to as development stripping. The directly attributable costs are
initially  capitalised  as  mine  development  costs.  Capitalising  of  development  stripping  costs  ceases  at  the  time  that
saleable mineral rights begin to be extracted from the mine.

Page 34

Notes to the Financial Statements

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
Production stripping commences at the time that saleable materials begin to be extracted from the mine and normally
continues through the life of a mine. The costs of production stripping are capitalised to the cost of inventory, and
charged to the income statement upon sale of inventory in cost of goods sold.

I.

Development expenditure

When a mining project has been established as commercially viable and technically feasible, expenditure other than
that on land, buildings and plant equipment is capitalised under development expenditure. Development expenditure
costs include previously capitalised exploration and evaluation costs, pre-production development costs, development
excavation, development studies and other subsurface expenditure pertaining to that area of interest.

Costs related to surface plant and equipment and any associated land and buildings are accounted for as property, plant
and equipment. Development costs are accumulated in respect of each separate area of interest. Costs associated with
commissioning new assets in the period before they are capable of operating in the manner intended by management,
are capitalised. Development costs incurred after the commencement of production are capitalised to the extent they
are expected to give rise to a future economic benefit. Amortisation of carried forward exploration and development
costs is charged on a unit of production basis over the life of economically recoverable reserves.

When  an  area  of  interest  is  abandoned  or  the  Directors  decide  it  is  not  commercial  or  technically  feasible,  any
accumulated cost in respect of that area is written off in the financial period the decision is made. Each area of interest
is reviewed at the end of each accounting period and accumulated cost written off to the Statement of Comprehensive
Income to the extent that they will not be recoverable in the future.

Development assets are assessed for impairment if facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount exceeds
the recoverable amount. For the purpose of impairment testing, development assets are allocated to cash generating
units to which the development activity relates. The cash generating unit shall not be larger than the area of interest.

J.

Rehabilitation expenditure

The  mining,  extraction  and  processing  activities  of  the Group 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 and engineering studies using current restoration standards and techniques. Provisions for the cost
of each rehabilitation programme 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, discounted to their present value. The value of the provision is progressively increased over time as the
effect  of  discounting  unwinds.  When  provisions  for  rehabilitation  are  initially  recognised,  the  corresponding  cost  is
capitalised as an asset, representing part of the cost of acquiring the future economic benefits of the operation. The
capitalised  cost  of  rehabilitation  activities  is  recognised  in  ‘Development  Expenditure’  as  rehabilitation  assets  and
amortised accordingly.

Where rehabilitation is expected to be conducted systematically over the life of the operation, rather than at the time
of closure, provision is made for the present obligation or estimated outstanding continuous rehabilitation work at each
balance date and the costs are recognised based on a consideration of the period which the rehabilitation is expected
to occur.

K.

Segment Reporting

Segment  results  are  reported  to  the  Board  of  Directors  (chief  operating  decision  maker)  and  include  items  directly
attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Unless stated otherwise, all
amounts  reported  to  the Board  of  Directors  as  the  chief  decision  maker  with  respect  to  operating  segments  are
determined  in  accordance  with  accounting  policies  that  are  consistent  with  those  adopted  in  the Annual  Financial
Statements of the Company.

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

Financial Instruments

l.i Recognition
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions
to the instrument. For financial assets, this is the date that the Group commits itself to either the purchase or sale of
the asset.
Financial instruments (except for trade receivables) are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, except
where the instrument is classified "at fair value through profit or loss", in which case transaction costs are expensed to
profit or loss immediately.
Trade receivables are initially measured at the transaction price if the trade receivables do not contain a significant
financing component or if the practical expedient was applied as specified in AASB 15.63.
l.ii Financial liabilities
All financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
The  effective  interest  method  is  a  method  of  calculating  the  amortised  cost  of  a  debt instrument  and  of  allocating
interest expense in profit or loss over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the internal rate of return of the
financial  asset  or  liability.  That  is,  it  is  the  rate  that  exactly  discounts  the  estimated  future  cash  flows  through  the
expected life of the instrument to the net carrying amount at initial recognition.
A financial liability cannot be reclassified.
l.iii Financial assets
Financial assets are subsequently measured at:




amortised cost;
fair value through other comprehensive income; or
fair value through profit or loss.

Measurement is on the basis of two primary criteria:



the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset; and
the business model for managing the financial assets.

A financial asset that meets the following conditions is subsequently measured at amortised cost:



the financial asset is managed solely to collect contractual cash flows; and
the contractual terms within the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and
interest on the principal amount outstanding on specified dates.

A  financial  asset  that  meets  the  following  conditions  is  subsequently  measured  at  fair  value  through  other
comprehensive income:


the contractual terms within the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and
interest on the principal amount outstanding on specified dates;
the  business  model  for  managing  the  financial  assets  comprises  both  contractual  cash flows  collection  and the
selling of the financial asset.



By default, all other financial assets that do not meet the measurement conditions of amortised cost and fair value
through other comprehensive income are subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss.

The initial designation of the financial instruments to measure at fair value through profit or loss is a one-time option
on initial classification and is irrevocable until the financial asset is derecognised.

l.iv Derecognition
Derecognition refers to the removal of a previously recognised financial asset or financial liability from the statement
of financial position.
A liability is derecognised when it is extinguished (ie when the obligation in the contract is discharged, cancelled or
expires). An exchange of an existing financial liability for a new one with substantially modified terms, or a substantial
modification to the terms of a financial liability is treated as an extinguishment of the existing liability and recognition
of a new financial liability.

Page 36

Notes to the Financial Statements

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

The  difference  between  the  carrying  amount  of  the  financial  liability  derecognised  and  the  consideration  paid  and
payable, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.
A financial asset is derecognised when the holder's contractual rights to its cash flows expires, or the asset is transferred
in such a way that all the risks and rewards of ownership are substantially transferred.
All of the following criteria need to be satisfied for derecognition of financial asset:

the right to receive cash flows from the asset has expired or been transferred;

all risk and rewards of ownership of the asset have been substantially transferred; and

the Group no longer controls the asset.

On derecognition of a financial asset measured at amortised cost, the difference between the asset's carrying amount
and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognised in profit or loss.

l.v Impairment
The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets that are measured at amortised
cost or fair value through other comprehensive income.
Loss allowance is not recognised for:



financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss; or
equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.

Expected  credit  losses  are  the  probability-weighted  estimate  of  credit  losses  over  the  expected  life  of  a  financial
instrument. A credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due, and all cash flows expected
to be received, all discounted at the original effective interest rate of the financial instrument.
The Group uses the following approaches to impairment, as applicable under AASB 9: Financial Instruments:



the general approach
the simplified approach

General approach
Under the general approach, at each reporting period, the Group assesses whether the financial instruments are credit-
impaired, and if:


the credit risk of the financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group measures
the loss allowance of the financial instruments at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses; or
there is no significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, the Group measures the loss allowance for that
financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses.



Simplified approach
The  simplified  approach  does  not  require  tracking  of  changes  in  credit  risk  at  every reporting  period,  but  instead
requires the recognition of lifetime expected credit loss at all times. This approach is applicable to trade receivables
which do not contain a significant financing component.
In  measuring  the  expected  credit  loss,  a  provision  matrix  for  trade  receivables  was  used  taking  into  consideration
various data to get to an expected credit loss (ie diversity of customer base, appropriate groupings of historical loss
experience, etc).
Recognition of expected credit losses in financial statements
At each reporting date, the Group recognises the movement in the loss allowance as an impairment gain or loss in the
statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
The carrying amount of financial assets measured at amortised cost includes the loss allowance relating to that asset.

For financial assets that are unrecognised (eg loan commitments yet to be drawn, financial guarantees), a provision for
loss allowance is created in the statement of financial position to recognise the loss allowance.

M. Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances

m.i. Functional and Presentation Currency

The  functional  currency  of  each  of  the Group’s  entities  is  measured  using  the  currency  of  the  primary  economic
environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars
which is the parent entity’s functional and presentation currency.
Page 37

Notes to the Financial Statements

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

m.ii. Transactions and balances

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

Exchange differences arising  on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of
Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income, except where deferred in Other Comprehensive Income as a qualifying
cash  flow  or  net  investment  hedge. Exchange  differences  arising  on  the  translation  of  non-monetary  items  are
recognised directly in Other Comprehensive Income to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in other
comprehensive income; otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or
Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.

m.iii. Group Companies

The  financial  results  and  position  of  foreign  operations  whose  functional  currency is  different  from  the  Company’s
presentation currency are translated as follows:





assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date; and

income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the year.

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the group’s foreign currency
translation  reserve  in  the  Statement  of  Financial  Position.    These  differences  are  recognised  in  the  Consolidated
Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income in the year in which the operation is disposed.

N. Employee Benefits

Provision  is  made  for  the Group’s  liability  for  employee  benefits  arising  from  services  rendered  by  employees  to
reporting date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts
expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs.  Employee benefits payable later than one year
have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits.

n.i Short-term employee benefits

Provision  is  made  for  the  Group’s  obligation  for  short-term  employee  benefits.  Short-term  employee  benefits  are
benefits (other than termination benefits) that are expected to be settled wholly before 12 months after the end of the
annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service, including wages, salaries and sick leave.
Short-term employee benefits are measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid when the obligation
is settled.

The Group’s obligations for short-term employee benefits such as wages, salaries and sick leave are recognised as part
of  current  trade  and  other  payables  in  the  statement  of  financial  position.  The  Group’s  obligations  for  employees’
annual leave and long service leave entitlements are recognised as provisions in the statement of financial position.

n.ii Share-based payments

The Group provides benefits to employees (including Directors) of the Company in the form of share-based payment
transactions,  whereby  employees  render  services  in  exchange  for  shares  or  rights  over  shares  (“equity-settled
transactions”). The cost of these equity settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value

at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an internal valuation and an external valuation
using the Black-Scholes model.

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the year in
which  the  performance  conditions  are  fulfilled,  ending  on  the  date  on  which  the  relevant  employees  become  fully
entitled  to  the  award  (“vesting  date”).  The  cumulative  expense  recognised  for  equity-settled  transactions  at  each
reporting date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the number of
awards that, in the opinion of the Directors of the Company, will ultimately vest.

This  opinion  is  formed  based  on  the  best  available  information  at  reporting  date.  No  adjustment  is  made  for  the
likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination
of fair value at grant date.  No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where
vesting is conditional upon market condition. Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested
on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if
Page 38

Notes to the Financial Statements

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

a  new  award  is  substituted  for  the  cancelled  award,  and  designated  as  a  replacement  award  on  the  date  that  it  is
granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award.

O. Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it
is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.

Provisions are measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the
reporting date.

P. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash  and cash  equivalents  includes  cash  on  hand,  deposits  held  at  call  with  banks,  other  short-term  highly  liquid
investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts.  Bank overdrafts are shown within
short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the Statement of Financial Position.

Q. Revenue recognition

The  Group  produces  and  sells  a  range  of  thermal  coal  products.  Revenue  from  the  sale  of  coal  is  recognised  when
control of the product has transferred to the customer. Control of the product is considered transferred to the customer
at the time of delivery, usually on Free on Board ("FOB") basis or a Cost and Freight ("CFR") basis. For CFR contracts the
performance obligation relating to freight services is accounted for as a separate performance obligation.

A receivable is recognised when control of the products is delivered as this is the point in time that the consideration is
unconditional and when control of the product is transferred to the customer. From time to time, the Group receives
prepayment  before  control  of  the  product  has  transferred  to  the  customer.  Such  prepayments  are  recognised  as
contract liabilities.

Some of the Group's coal sales contracts are long-term supply agreement which stipulate the nominal annual quantity
and price negotiation mechanism. For those contracts, the actual quantity and transaction price applicable for future
shipments are only negotiated or determined prior to the beginning of, or a date which is after, each contract year or
delivery period. The transaction price for a future shipment is based on, or derived from, a market price prevailing at
the time of the future shipment. As the future market price for coal is highly susceptible to factors outside the Group's
influence, the transaction price for a shipment is not readily determinable until or nearing the time of the shipment. As
a result, the Group has concluded that a contract with the customer does not exist for those shipments for which the
actual delivery quantity and transaction price have not yet been negotiated or determined.

R.

Finance income and finance expense

Finance income and expenses are recognised using the effective interest rate method, which, for floating rate financial
assets and liabilities is the rate inherent in the instrument.

All finance income and expenses are stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST) and local value added tax
(VAT).

S. Goods and Service Tax (GST) and Value Added Tax (VAT)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of respective GST or VAT, except where the amount
of  GST  or  VAT  incurred  is  not  recoverable  from  the  relevant  Tax  Office.    In  these  circumstances  the  GST  or  VAT  is
recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense.  Receivables and payables
in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position are shown inclusive of GST or VAT.

Cash  flows  are  presented  in  the Consolidated Statement  of  Cash  Flows a  gross  basis,  except  for  the  GST  or  VAT
component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.

Trade and other payables

T.
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of financial year which
are unpaid.  The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

Leases

U.
At inception of a contract, the Group assesses if the contract contains or is a lease. If there is a lease present, a right-of-
use asset and a corresponding lease liability is recognised by the Group where the Group is a lessee. However, all

Page 39

Notes to the Financial Statements

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

1.
contracts that are classified as short-term leases (ie a lease with a remaining lease term of 12 months or less) and leases
of low-value assets are recognised as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Initially, the lease liability is measured at the present value of the lease payments still to be paid at commencement
date.  The  lease  payments  are  discounted  at  the  interest  rate  implicit  in  the  lease.  If  this  rate  cannot  be  readily
determined, the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate.

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are as follows:



fixed lease payments less any lease incentives;
variable  lease  payments  that  depend  on  an  index  or  rate,  initially  measured  using  the  index  or  rate  at  the
commencement date;
the amount expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees;
the exercise price of purchase options, if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the options;
lease payments under extension options, if lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the options; and
payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the exercise of an option to terminate
the lease.






The right-of-use assets comprise the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability as mentioned above, any
lease payments made at or before the commencement date, as well as any initial direct costs.

The subsequent measurement of the right-of-use assets is at cost less accumulated depreciation and

impairment losses.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the lease term or useful life of the underlying asset, whichever is the shortest.
Where a lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset, or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Group
anticipates exercising a purchase option, the specific asset is depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset.

V. Earnings per share

v.i. Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Company, excluding
any  costs  of  servicing  equity  other  than  ordinary  shares,  by  the  weighted  average  number  of  ordinary  shares
outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year.

v.ii. Diluted earnings per share

Diluted earnings per share adjust 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.

W. Assets held for sale

Non-current assets and disposal groups are classified as held for sale and measured at the lower of carrying amount
and fair value less costs to sell, where the carrying amount will be recovered principally through sale as opposed to
continued use.  No depreciation or amortisation is charged against assets classified as held for sale.

Classification  as  “held  for sale”  occurs  when:  management  has  committed  to  a  plan  for  immediate  sale;  the  sale  is
expected to occur within one year from the date of classification; and active marketing of the asset has commenced.
Such assets are classified as current assets.

A discontinued operation is a component of an entity, being a cash-generating unit (or a group of cash generating units),
that either has been disposed of, or is classified as held for sale, and: represents a separate major line of business or
geographical area of operations; is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or
geographical area of operations; or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with the view to resale.

Impairment losses are recognised for any initial or subsequent write-down of an asset (or disposal group) classified as
held for sale to fair value less costs to sell.  Any reversal of impairment recognised on classification as held for sale or
prior to such classification is recognised as a gain in Consolidated Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income in
the period in which it occurs.

X.

Impairment of non-financial assets

At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether
there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the
Page 40

Notes to the Financial Statements

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

1.
asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying
value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the Consolidated Statement
of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.

Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. Where it is not possible
to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-
generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Y. Critical accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, which are described in Note 1, management is required to make
judgments, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from
other sources.  The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors
that  are  believed to  be  reasonable  under  the  circumstances,  the  results  of  which  form  the  basis  of  making  the
judgments. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are
recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or, in the period of the
revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the
reporting  date,  that  have  a  significant  risk  of  causing  a  material  adjustment  to  the  carrying  amounts  of  assets  and
liabilities within the next financial year:









Recoverability of exploration and evaluation expenditure
The recoverability of the capitalised acquisition expenditure recognised as a non-current asset is dependent
upon the successful development, or alternatively sale, of the respective tenements which comprise the
assets.

Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories is based on
average costs over the relevant period of production and includes expenditure in accumulating the inventories,
production costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition. Stockpile
tonnages are verified by periodic surveys.
Rehabilitation
The extent of work required and the associated costs are estimated based on feasibility and engineering studies
using current restoration standards and techniques. Provisions for the cost of each rehabilitation programme
are recognised at the time that environmental disturbance occurs.
Impairment of non-financial assets
The  Group  assesses  impairment  at  the  end  of  each  reporting  period  by  evaluating  conditions  and  events
specific to the Group that may be indicative of impairment triggers. Recoverable amounts of relevant assets
are reassessed using value-in-use calculations which incorporate various key assumptions. In light of lengthy
negotiations with the Malawi government and ongoing logistical issues with the operation of the mine, the
Group recognised a full impairment on the carrying value of its Malawian subsidiaries.

Comparative figures

When  required  by  Accounting  Standards,  comparative  figures  have  been  adjusted  to  conform  to  changes  in

The mine development costs were fully impaired due to the ongoing discussions with the Ministry of Minerals not yet
resolved on the A$10.2m (A$13.5m) for the royalty on transport fees payable from prior years accounted for in FY 2020,
the cancellation by the Ministry of Minerals of two mining licence applications because of non-payment of the royalty
on transport fees, lower sales from poor economic conditions and increased competition from small miners and the
impact on profitability from the introduction of royalty and clearance fees on the cost of transport paid by customers
to the location of their operations.

Notes to the Financial Statements

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

25. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Group operates in two geographical segments being Australia and Africa.

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 maker) in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources. The
Group’s business is the exploration, evaluation, marketing, production and sale of coal in Africa.

Basis of Accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments

Accounting policies adopted
Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors as the chief decision maker with respect to
operating segments are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent with those adopted in
the annual Financial Statements of the Group.

Inter-segment  loans  payable and  receivable  are  initially recognised at  the  consideration  received  net  of  transaction
costs. If inter-segment loans receivable and payable are not on commercial terms, these are not adjusted to fair value
based on market interest rates.

Segment assets
Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to the segment that receives the majority of
economic value from the asset. In the majority of instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their
nature and physical location. Unless indicated otherwise in the segment assets note, investments in financial assets,
deferred tax assets and intangible assets have not been allocated to operating segments.

Segment liabilities
Liabilities  are  allocated  to  segments  where  there  is  a  direct  nexus  between  the incurrence  of  the  liability  and  the
operations of the segment. Borrowings and tax liabilities are generally considered to relate to the Group as a whole and
are not allocated. Segment liabilities include trade and other payables.

Notes to and forming part of the segment information

30. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Exposure to credit and interest rate risks arises in the normal course of the Group’s businesses. The Group has
exposure to the following risks from their use of financial instruments:

Credit Risk
Liquidity Risk



 Market risk i) Interest rate risk, ii) Foreign currency risk

This note presents information about the Group’s exposure to each of the above risks, their objectives, policies
and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the management of capital. Further quantitative disclosures
are included throughout this financial report.

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management
framework.

Risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate
risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits.  Risk management policies and systems are
reviewed to reflect changes in market conditions and the Group’s activities.  The Group, through their training
and management standards and procedures, aim to develop a disciplined and constructive control environment
in which all employees understand their roles and obligations.

30(a) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to
meet  its  contractual  obligations,  and  arises  principally  from  the Group’s  receivables  from  customers  and
investment securities.

Some of the Group’s receivables relate to GST and other taxation (including VAT) due from the Australian and
Tanzanian taxation offices and trade receivables from coal sales.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise of cash on hand and demand deposits.  The Group limits its credit risk by
holding its cash balance and demand deposits with reputable counterparties with acceptable credit ratings.

30(b) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to  meet its financial obligations as they fall due.  The
Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity
to  meet  its  liabilities  when  due,  under  both  normal  and  stressed  conditions,  without  incurring  unacceptable
losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation. The Board monitors liquidity risk on a monthly basis.

The Group’s policy is to ensure that it will always have sufficient cash to allow it to meet its liabilities when they
become due.  To achieve this aim, it seeks to maintain cash balances to meet expected requirements for a period.

The Group’s cash at bank and on hand and short term deposits had a weighted average floating interest rate
at  year  end  of 0%.  The  Company  currently  does  not  engage  in  any  hedging  or  derivative  transactions  to
manage interest rate risk.

Interest rate sensitivity

A sensitivity of 10% has been selected as this is considered reasonable given the current level of both short
term  and  long  term  interest  rates.  A  10%  movement  in  interest  rates  at  the  reporting  date  would  have
increased (decreased) equity and profit and loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all
other variables, in particular foreign currency rates, remain constant.

As a result of activities overseas, the Group’s Consolidated Statement of Financial Position can be affected by
movements in exchange rates.

The Group also  has  transactional  currency  exposures.  Such  exposure  arises  from  transactions  dominated  in
currencies other than the functional currency of the entity.

The Group currently does not engage in any hedging or derivative transactions to manage foreign currency risk.

The Group’s  exposure  to  foreign  currency  risk  throughout  the  current  year  primarily  arose  from the  Group’s
100% interest in Intra Energy (Tanzania) Limited and its controlling interests in Tancoal and Tanzacoal (collectively
“Tanzanian  subsidiaries”),  whose  functional  currencies  are  Tanzanian  Shillings.  Additionally  the Group has
exposure to foreign currency risk through the Group’s 90% interest in Malcoal Mining Limited and 100% interest
in Intra Energy Trading Malawi Limited (collectively “Malawian subsidiaries”), whose functional currencies are
Malawian Kwacha. Foreign currency risk arises on translation of the net assets of these entities to Australian
dollars.  The  foreign  currency  gains  or  losses  arising  from  this  risk  are  recorded  through  the  foreign  currency
translation reserve.

The Group is additionally exposed to the USD by way of its USD denominated loans to the KCB Bank Tanzania
Limited and leases with Kanu Equipment. The foreign currency gains or losses arising from this risk are recorded

Sensitivity Analysis for Foreign Currency risk

A sensitivity of 10% has been selected as this is considered reasonable given historic and potential future changes
in foreign currency rates. This has been applied to the net assets of the Group. This sensitivity analysis is prepared
at reporting date.

A 10% strengthening of the Australian dollar against the Tanzanian Shilling and Malawian Kwacha at 30 June
2021 would  have decreased the  net  liabilities  of  the  Tanzanian  and  Malawian  subsidiaries  by  A$0.11m  (20:
decrease $1.840m).  A  10%  weakening  of  the  Australian  dollar  against  the  Tanzanian  Shilling  and  Malawian
Kwacha at 30 June 2021 would have increased the net liabilities of the Tanzanian and Malawian subsidiaries by
A$1.75m (2020: decreased $2.25m).

There would be no impact on profit or loss arising from these changes in the currency risk variables as all changes
in value are taken to a reserve.

A  10% strengthening  of  the  Australian  dollar  against  the  United  States  dollar  at  30  June  2021 would  have
decreased  net  interest  bearing  liabilities  of  the interest  bearing  loans  and  lease  liabilities by  A$0.11m  (2020:
$0.26m). A 10% weakening of the Australian dollar against the United States dollar at 30 June 2021 would have
increased net interest bearing liabilities and lease liabilities by A$0.11m (2020: $0.32m).

The impact on profit or loss arising from changes in this currency risk variables would be taken to the Statement
of Comprehensive Income.

The  above  analysis  assumes  that  all  other  variables,  in  particular  interest  rates  and  equity  prices,  remain
constant.

30(d) Fair value versus carrying amounts
The Group’s carrying mounts of fair value assets and liabilities equate to their corresponding fair values.

30(e) Capital management
The Board’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence.
There were no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management during the year. Neither the Group nor
any of its subsidiaries are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
