JUPITER MINES LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2014

CHAIRMAN’S LETTER

Dear Shareholders,

The financial period ending 28 February 2014 has seen significant progress on Jupiter’s key projects.

The Tshipi Borwa mine is well on its way to becoming one of the world’s important suppliers of manganese ore. One 
million tonnes was produced and sold in its first full financial year, generating profits even at the depressed manganese 
ore prices ruling. The production ramp up to 2.4 million tonnes per annum is set to continue in the current financial year, 
in line with the anticipated increase in logistics capacity.

In the Central Yilgarn, work has continued to optimise the Mount Mason DSO Hematite Project. There has also been 
important progress in the plans to expand the capacity of the port of Esperance, with the preferred proponent announced. 
This  increases  the  likelihood  of  Mount  Mason  being  developed,  and  with  it  the  potential  to  generate  profits  in  the 
foreseeable future.

The de-listing of Jupiter in January 2014 was completed smoothly and the majority of shareholders remain committed to 
Jupiter and its Strategy. I hope to see these realise significant value in the future.

Yours Faithfully,
Jupiter Mines Limited

Brian Gilbertson
Chairman

JUPITER MINES LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2014

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Jupiter Mines Limited (“Jupiter” or the “Company”) continued to focus on the development of its iron ore and manganese 
projects in pursuit of its long term Steel Feed Corporation (“SFC”) strategy.

Significant progress was achieved during the year at the Company’s major project in South Africa the Tshipi Kalahari 
Manganese Project.

In Australia, at the Central Yilgarn Iron Project (“CYIP”), work continued on the optimisation of the Mount Mason Feasibility 
Study and progression of the project approvals documentation. Work on the Mount Ida Feasibility Study remained on hold.

TSHIPI KALAHARI MANGANESE PROJECT

Jupiter has a 49.9% interest in Tshipi é Ntle Manganese Mining (Tshipi). Tshipi owns two manganese projects in the 
Kalahari Manganese fields, namely Tshipi Borwa and Tshipi Bokone, adjacent to the operating Mamatwan and 
Wessels mines respectively.

Tshipi’s flagship project, Tshipi Borwa, continued and fortified its production during the year. It is located in the Southern 
portion of the Kalahari Manganese Field, the largest manganese bearing geological formation in the world.

Figure 1. Tshipi Kalahari Manganese Project Location Map

Tshipi Borwa is mining the ore body that is contiguous to, and a direct extension of, the Mamatwan ore body which has 
been mined for over 46 years. 

Tshipi Bokone is an exploration property located in the northern portion of the Kalahari Manganese Field.

TSHIPI BORWA

The ramp up at Tshipi Borwa saw production of over one million tonnes, of which 734,000 tonnes of lump and 202,000 
of fines manganese were exported in its financial year to 28 February 2014. Tshipi has recorded a profit in the same 
year, which is a significant achievement in its first full year of operations.

Transnet rail has committed to make available two trains per week while one additional train per week is at Transnet’s 
discretion. Alternative road and rail solutions have been implemented to increase the logistics capacity available to Tshipi 
including the use of sea containers and open topped containers (Skiptainers). These alternatives rely dominantly on rail 
transportation, while road transportation alternatives are also being pursued and adopted.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS (continued)

Figure 2 and 3. Loading and railing of manganese ore at Tshipi Borwa

Completion of the construction of the mine and plant infrastructure, giving full operating performance, is expected during 
the current financial year.  Despite the challenges of building a new project, Tshipi is achieving mine production to satisfy 
the Transnet rail and port allocation. During the coming financial year, Tshipi expects to produce and ship approximately 
1.7 million tonnes.

In September 2013, Tshipi entered a Joint Venture Agreement (“JVA”) with a new entity, Singapore-based OM Tshipi (S) Pte 
Ltd (“OMT”). The JVA provides for the marketing of the manganese ore produced by Tshipi, and is jointly owned by Jupiter 
Kalahari (Mauritius) Ltd, Ntsimbintle Mining Pty Ltd and OM Materials Trades (S) Pte Ltd. In conjunction with the execution 
of the JVA, Tshipi entered into a Take-or-Pay Offtake Contract with OMT for all of its available production for the next two 
years, extendable at the option of the parties.

Figure 4 and 5. Production continues at Tshipi Borwa

In December 2013, the Company announced that a ZAR 400 million working capital facility had been secured to support 
the production and sales targets set by management. 

In February 2014, Brendan Robinson was appointed as CEO of Tshipi. Mr Robinson has been closely associated with 
the project for many years and has acted as Tshipi’s CFO since November 2011.

TSHIPI BOKONE

Exploration activities at Tshipi Bokone have temporarily been put on hold as Tshipi management focus their attention at 
bringing Tshipi Borwa to optimum production.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS (continued)

CENTRAL YILGARN IRON PROJECTS

The Central Yilgarn Iron Project (“CYIP”) area is located 130km by road northwest of the town of Menzies. The CYIP 
consists of the smaller DSO project – (Mount Mason) and the flagship long-life magnetite Project – (Mount Ida).

Both projects are planned around existing infrastructure in the region, including the Leonora to Esperance railway line, and 
the Port of Esperance.

Figure 6. CYIP Project Location Map

MOUNT IDA MAGNETITE PROJECT

The flagship Mount Ida Magnetite Project has the reserves to be a tier one long-life magnetite mine, further establishing 
Jupiter’s presence in the Central Yilgarn region.

Jupiter decided to suspend the Feasibility Study in the last financial year, and the project remains on hold. No work has 
been completed on this project in this financial period.

MOUNT MASON DSO HEMATITE PROJECT

The focus of the year has remained the optimisation of the Feasibility Study. Many opportunities exist to reduce capital 
and operating costs, especially with regards to the construction of common infrastructure to be utilised by the various other 
potential producers in the Yilgarn.

All baseline environmental surveys and studies have been completed and all the Project Approvals for Mount Mason and 
the Yunndaga rail siding are expected by July 2014.

Indicative prices were received on ore haulage from the mine site to the Yunndaga rail siding near Menzies using different 
truck configurations. Operating cost reductions can be achieved using bigger payload options. Preliminary discussions 
with the Menzies Shire on upgrading the Menzies Sandstone road for the different transport options have commenced.

Following to the end of the financial period, the Esperance Ports Sea and Land (“EPSL”) announced that the group known 
as the YES Consortium (“YES”, led by Asciano Limited) had been named as the preferred proponent to develop the Multi-
User Iron Ore Facility at Esperance Port. Yes and EPSL are currently finalising contractual terms, after which the Consortium 
will be commencing discussions with potential users of the port. Jupiter intends to fully participate in such discussions.

Figure 8. Esperance Port

NON-CORE PROJECTS

Minimal activity was undertaken on the Company’s non-core assets during the period. The Oakover Manganese and 
Klondyke Gold projects remain held for sale.

After financial and geological evaluation, it was decided that the Mount Alfred project tenements were no longer of value 
to the Company and were relinquished shortly after the end of the financial period.

In accordance with a resolution of Directors, the Directors present their Report together with the Financial Report of Jupiter Mines 
Limited (Jupiter) and its wholly owned subsidiaries (together referred to as the Consolidated Entity) for the financial period ended 
28 February 2014 and the Independent Audit Report thereon.

Directors

The Directors of Jupiter at any time during or since the end of the financial period are as follows:

Non-Executive

−  Brian Patrick Gilbertson

−  Paul Raymond Murray

−  Andrew Bell

−  Soo-Cheol Shin

Executive

−  Priyank Thapliyal

Additional information is provided below regarding the current Directors.

Brian Patrick Gilbertson BSc (Maths and Physics), BSc (Hons) (Physics), MSc (Physics), MBL, PMD45
(Chairman: Non-Executive Director)

Mr Gilbertson was appointed a Director on 22 June 2010.

Mr Gilbertson has extensive experience in the global natural resources industry. He was Managing Director of Rustenburg 
Platinum Mines Limited in the 1980’s, a period during which the company gained recognition as the world’s foremost producer 
of platinum. In the 1990’s, as Executive Chairman of Gencor Limited, he led the restructuring of the South African mining industry 
into the post-Apartheid era, transforming Gencor into a focused mineral and mining group. During this period he held ultimate 
responsibility for Impala Platinum Holdings, for Samancor Limited (the world’s largest producer of manganese and chrome ore 
and alloys) and for Trans-Natal Coal Corporation (a major coal producer and exporter). Important new initiatives included the 
Hillside and Mozal aluminium smelters, the Columbus stainless steel plant, and the purchase of the international mining assets 
(Billiton plc) of the Royal Dutch Shell Group.

In  1997,  Gencor  restructured  its  non-precious  metals  interests  as  Billiton  plc.  With  Mr  Gilbertson  as  Executive  Chairman, 
Billiton plc raised US$1.5 billion in an initial public offering on the LSE, taking the company into the FTSE 100. Separately, Mr 
Gilbertson worked to merge the gold operations of Gencor and Gold Fields of South Africa, creating Gold Fields Limited, a 
leader in the world gold mining industry. He served as its first Chairman until October 1998. In 2001, Billiton plc merged with 
BHP Limited to create what is widely regarded as the world’s premier resources company, BHP Billiton plc. Mr Gilbertson was 
appointed its second Chief Executive on 1 July 2002.

In late 2003, Mr Gilbertson led mining group Vedanta Resources plc (Vedanta) to the first primary listing of an Indian company 
on the London Stock Exchange in the second largest IPO of the year (US$876 million). He served as Chairman of Vedanta until 
July 2004.

He was appointed President of Sibirsko-Uralskaya Aluminium Company (SUAL), the smaller aluminium producer in Russia and 
led that company into the US$30 billion merger with RUSAL and the alumina assets of Glencore International A.G., creating the 
largest aluminium company in the world.

Mr Gilbertson established Pallinghurst Advisors LLP and Pallinghurst (Cayman) GP L.P. during 2006 and 2007 respectively, to 
develop opportunities on behalf of a group of natural resource investors, which currently own 86% of Jupiter.

Mr Gilbertson is a British and South African citizen. He has not been a Director of any other ASX listed company in the past 
three years.

Significant Changes in the State of Affairs

In  October  2013,  Jupiter  Mines  Limited  applied  to  the  Australian  Securities  Exchange  (ASX)  for  the  removal  of  the 
Company from the official list.  The Company was de-listed from the Australian Securities Exchange on 10 January 2014, 
after approval was given by shareholders at the Company’s AGM in November 2013.

The Company also applied to the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (“ASIC”) to change its financial year 
end from 30 June to 28 February. The change will allow the Company to align with the year end of the Tshipi Joint 
Venture, Jupiter’s primary project. The Tshipi Joint Venture accounts for a significant portion of the Group’s financial results 
and operations. The request for change of year end has been approved by ASIC subsequent to the year end.

well as further optimisation work of its Mount Mason DSO hematite project.

as permitted by the Corporations Act 2001.

The financial statements were authorised and issued by the board of directors on 30 May 2014.

Basis of Preparation

These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian 
Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the 
Corporations Act 2001.

Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a financial report 
containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting 
Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Material 
accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report are presented below and have been consistently applied 
unless otherwise stated.

The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by 
the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.

Jupiter Mines Limited is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements.

(a) 

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of entities controlled by Jupiter 
Mines Limited at the end of the reporting period. A controlled entity is any entity over which Jupiter Mines Limited 
has the power to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from its activities. Control 
will generally exist when the parent owns, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, more than half of the voting 
power of an entity. In assessing the power to govern, the existence and effect of holdings of actual and potential 
voting rights are considered.

A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 13 to the financial statements.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all inter-Group balances and transactions between entities in 
the Consolidated Group have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been 
changed where necessary to ensure consistency with those adopted by the parent entity.

Business Combinations

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

A business combination is accounted for by applying the acquisition method, unless it is a combination involving 
entities or businesses under common control. The business combination will be accounted for from the date that 
control is attained, whereby the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities (including contingent 
liabilities) assumed is recognised (subject to certain limited exemptions).

When measuring the consideration transferred in the business combination, any asset or liability resulting from a 
contingent consideration arrangement is also included. Subsequent to initial recognition, contingent consideration 
classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent 
consideration classified as an asset or liability is remeasured each reporting period to fair value, recognising any 
change to fair value in profit or loss, unless the change in value can be identified as existing at acquisition date.

All transaction costs incurred in relation to the business combination are expensed to the statement of 
comprehensive income.

The acquisition of a business may result in the recognition of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase.

(b) 

Interests in Joint Ventures

The Group acquired an interest in Tshipi é Ntle Manganese Mining (Proprietary) Limited (“Tshipi”), a joint venture 
entity, in October 2010. The Group’s accounting policy for joint ventures was considered by the Directors as part of 
the deliberation on the Tshipi acquisition, and had not been formally considered or articulated previously.

The Group also under took an interest in OM Tshipi (S) Pte Ltd (“OMT”), a joint venture entity, in November 2013.

Associates are those entities over which the Group is able to exert significant influence but which are not subsidiaries.

A joint venture is an arrangement that the Group controls jointly with one or more other investors, and over which 
the Group has rights to a share of the arrangement’s net assets rather than direct rights to underlying assets and 
obligations for underlying liabilities.

Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method.

Any  goodwill  or  fair  value  adjustment  attributable  to  the  Group’s  share  in  the  associate  or  joint  venture  is  not 
recognised separately and is included in the amount recognised as investment.

The carrying amount of the investment in associates and joint ventures is increased or decreased to recognise the 
Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate and joint venture, adjusted where 
necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting policies of the Group.

Unrealised gains and losses on transactions between the Group and its associates and joint ventures are eliminated 
to the extent of the Group’s interest in those entities. Where unrealised losses are eliminated, the underlying asset is 
also tested for impairment. 

(c) 

Income Tax

The income tax expense (revenue) for the period comprises current income tax expense (income) and deferred tax 
expense (income).

Current income tax expense charged to profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income. Current tax liabilities 
(assets) are measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority.

Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the 
period as well unused tax losses.

Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited outside profit or loss when the tax relates 
to items that are recognised outside profit or loss.

Except for business combinations, no deferred income tax is recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or 
liability, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the 
asset is realised or the liability is settled and their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects 
to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability.

Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent 
that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset 
can be utilised.

Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, 
deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can 
be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that 
net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax 
assets and liabilities are offset where: (a) a legally enforceable right of set-off exists; and (b) the deferred tax assets 
and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different 
taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective 
asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are 
expected to be recovered or settled.

d) 

Property, Plant and Equipment

Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value as indicated less, where applicable, 
any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Plant and equipment

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 that will be received from the asset’s employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net 
cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts.

The cost of fixed assets constructed within the Consolidated Group includes the cost of materials, direct labour, 
borrowing costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.

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 the statement of 
comprehensive income during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation

The depreciable amount of all fixed assets is depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives to the 
Consolidated Group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.

The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:

Class of Fixed Asset
Office equipment
Furniture & fittings
Motor vehicles
Leasehold improvements
Buildings

Depreciation Rate
33.33%
33.33%
12.50%
20.00%
10.00%

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.

An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount 
is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

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

(e) 

Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure

The application of the Group’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure requires judgment 
in determining whether it is likely that future economic benefits are likely either from future exploitation or sale or 
where activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of reserves. 
The determination of a Joint Ore Reserves Committee (JORC) resource is itself an estimation process that requires 
varying degrees of uncertainty depending on sub-classification and these estimates directly impact the point of 
deferral of exploration and evaluation expenditure. The deferral policy requires management to make certain 
estimates and assumptions about future events or circumstances, in particular whether an economically viable 
extraction operation can be established. Estimates and assumptions made may change if new information 
becomes  available.  If,  after  expenditure  is  capitalised,  information  becomes  available  suggesting  that  the 
recovery of expenditure is unlikely, the amount capitalised is written off in the Statement of Profit or Loss and 
Other Comprehensive Income in the period when the new information becomes available.

 (f) 

Leases

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

Finance leases are capitalised by recognising an asset and a liability at the lower of the amounts equal to the 
fair value of the leased property or the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed 
residual values. Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest 
expense for the period.

Leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease 
term.

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

Lease incentives under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line basis over 
the lease term.

(g) 

Financial Assets

Recognition and initial measurement

Financial  assets  and  financial  liabilities  are  recognised  when  the  entity  becomes  a  party  to  the  contractual 
provisions to the instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the company commits itself to 
either the purchase or sale of the asset (i.e. trade date accounting is adopted).

Financial  instruments  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.

Classification and subsequent measurement

Finance instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, 
or cost.

Amortised cost is the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition 
less principal repayments and any reduction for impairment, and adjusted for any cumulative amortisation of the 
difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount calculated using the effective interest method.

Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied 
to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions, reference to similar 
instruments and option pricing models.

The effective interest method is used to allocate interest income or interest expense over the relevant period and 
is  equivalent  to  the  rate  that  discounts  estimated  future  cash  payments  or  receipts  (including  fees,  transaction 
costs  and  other  premiums  or  discounts)  through  the  expected  life  (or  when  this  cannot  be  reliably  predicted, 
the  contractual  term)  of  the  financial  instrument  to  the  net  carrying  amount  of  the  financial  asset  or  financial 
liability. Revisions to expected future net cash flows will necessitate an adjustment to the carrying value with a 
consequential recognition of an income or expense item in profit or loss.

The Group does not designate any interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint venture entities as being subject to 
the requirements of Accounting Standards specifically applicable to financial instruments.

(i) 

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not 
quoted in an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

Loans and receivables are included in current assets, where they are expected to mature within 12 months 
after the end of the reporting period.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2014

Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Held-to-maturity investments

Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or 
determinable payments, and it is the Group’s intention to hold these investments to maturity. They are 
subsequently measured at amortised cost.

Held-to-maturity investments are included in non-current assets where they are expected to mature within 
12 months after the end of the reporting period. All other investments are classified as current assets.

(ii) 

Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either not suitable to be 
classified into other categories of financial assets due to their nature, or they are designated as such 
by management. They comprise investments in the equity of other entities where there is neither a fixed 
maturity nor fixed or determinable payments.

They  are  subsequently  measured  at  fair  value  with  changes  in  such  fair  value  (i.e.  gains  or  losses) 
recognised in other comprehensive income (except for impairment losses and foreign exchange gains 
and losses). When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss pertaining to that 
asset previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified into profit or loss.

Available-for-sale financial assets are included in current assets where they are expected to be sold 
within 12 months after the end of the reporting period. All other financial assets are classified as non-
current assets.

(iii) 

Financial liabilities

Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at 
amortised cost.

Impairment of Financial Assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Group assess whether there is objective evidence that a financial 
asset has been impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if, and only 
if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events (a “loss event”) having occurred, 
which has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset(s).

In the case of available-for-sale financial assets, a significant or prolonged decline in the market value of the 
instrument is considered to constitute a loss event. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss immediately. 
Also, any cumulative decline in fair value previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified 
to profit or loss at this point.

In the case of financial assets carried at amortised cost, loss events may include: indications that the debtors or 
a group of debtors are experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal 
payments; indications that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation; and changes in arrears 
or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.

For financial assets carried at amortised cost (including loans and receivables), a separate allowance account 
is  used  to  reduce  the  carrying  amount  of  financial  assets  impaired  by  credit  losses.  After  having  taken  all 
possible measures of recovery, if management establishes that the carrying amount cannot be recovered by 
any means, at that point the written-off amounts are charged to the allowance account or the carrying amount 
of  impaired  financial  assets  is  reduced  directly  if  no  impairment  amount  was  previously  recognised  in  the 
allowance account.

When the terms of the financial assets that would otherwise have been past due or impaired have been 
renegotiated, the group recognises the impairment for such financial assets by taking into account the original 
terms as if the terms have not been renegotiated so that the loss events have occurred are duly considered.

(h) 

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 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 
statement of comprehensive income.

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.

Impairment testing is performed annually for intangible assets with indefinite lives.

(i) 

Employee Benefits

Provision is made for the Company’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. 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. Those 
cash flows are discounted using market yields on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match the 
expected timing of cash flows.

 (j) 

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.

(k) 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid 
investments with original maturities of three months or less, less credit card facilities used. Bank overdrafts are 
shown as short-term borrowings in liabilities.

(l) 

Trade and Other Receivables

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

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis at an operating unit level. Individual debts that 
are known to be uncollectible are written off when identified. An impairment provision is recognised when there 
is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the receivable.

(m) 

Revenue and Other Income

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when significant risks and rewards of the saleable product have 
transferred  to  the  customer.  Risks  and  rewards  are  considered  passed  to  the  customer  upon  delivery  to  the 
customer’s control. This generally occurs when the product is physically transferred onto a vessel.

Revenue from inventory sales is measured at fair value of consideration received/receivable. Revenue is stated 
after deducting sales taxes, duties and levies.

The price is determined on a provisional bases at the date of sale (cost insurance and freight). Adjustments to the 
sale price may occur based on variances in the metal or moisture content of the ore up to the date of final pricing. 
The period between provisional invoicing and final pricing is typically between 2 and 3 months. Accordingly, the 
fair value of the original revenue and associated receivable is adjusted each reporting period by reference to the 
best estimate of the actual metal and moisture content. The changes in fair value are recorded as an adjustment 
to revenue.

Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method, which, for floating rate financial assets, is 
the rate inherent in the instrument.

All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).

(n) 

Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily take 
a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until 
such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and comprehensive income in the 
period in which they are incurred.

(o) 

Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST 
incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).

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 ATO 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 ATO are presented as operating cash flows 
included in receipts from customers or payments to suppliers.

 (p) 

Trade and Other Payables

Trade and other payables are carried at cost and due to their short time nature they are not discounted. They 
represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial period that 
are unpaid and arise when Jupiter becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of 
these goods and services. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

(q) 

Comparative Figures

When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in 
presentation for the current financial period.

(r) 

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments

The  Directors  evaluate  estimates  and  judgments  incorporated  into  the  financial  report  based  on  historical 
knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events 
and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the Group.

Key estimates – Impairment of non-financial assets

The Group assesses impairment at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the Group that 
may lead to impairment of assets. Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is 
determined.

Key estimates – Options

The fair value of services received in return for options granted are measured by reference to the fair value of 
options granted. The estimate of the fair value of the services received is measured based on the Black Scholes 
option-pricing model. The contractual life of the options is used as an input into the model. Expectations of early 
exercise are incorporated into the model as well. Refer to Note 27 for more details.

The expected volatility is based on the historic volatility of peer Group entities (calculated on the weighted 
average remaining life of the share options), adjusted for any expected changes to volatility due to publicly 
available information. Further information regarding assumptions is included in Note 27.

Key judgements – Exploration and evaluation expenditure

The Group’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure results in certain items of expenditure 
being capitalised for an area of interest where it is considered likely to be recoverable by future exploitation or sale 
or where the activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of reserves. 
This policy requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions as to future events and circumstances, 
in particular whether an economically viable extraction operation can be established. Any such estimates and 
assumptions may change as new information becomes available. If, after having capitalised the expenditure under 
the policy, a judgement is made that recovery of the expenditure is unlikely, the relevant capitalised amount will be 
written off to the statement of comprehensive income. An impairment has been recognised in respect of exploration 
expenditure at reporting date of $5,344,880. Refer to Note 11 for more details.

Mineral Reserves and Resource Estimates

Ore reserves are estimates of the amount of ore that can be economically and legally extracted from the 
Group’s mining properties. The Group estimates its ore reserves and mineral resources based on information 
compiled by appropriately qualified persons relating to the geological data on the size, depth and shape of 
the ore body, and requires complex geological judgments to interpret the data. The estimation of recoverable 
reserves is based upon factors such as estimates of foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, future capital 
requirements, and production costs along with geological assumptions and judgments made in estimating the 
size and grade of the ore body. Changes in the reserve or resource estimates may impact upon the carrying 
value of exploration and evaluation assets, mine properties, property, plant and equipment, goodwill, provision 
for rehabilitation, recognition of deferred tax assets, and depreciation and amortisation charges.

Assets Held for Sale

As disclosed in Note 11 to the financials, the Klondyke and Oakover areas of interest were re-classified to 
“Assets Held for Sale” for the reporting period ended 30 June 2013. The Directors have assessed and then 
impaired the value of these two areas of interest to their estimated fair value for the period ended 28 February 
2014. It is expected that these assets will be sold in the next 12 months. 

(s) 

Share based payments

Under AASB 2 share based payments, the Company is required to determine the fair value of options issued 
to  employees  as  remuneration  and  recognise  as  an  expense  in  the  statement  of  comprehensive  income.  
This standard is not limited to options and also extends to other forms of equity-based remuneration.

(t) 

Foreign Currency Translation

(i) 

Functional and presentation currency

The  functional  and  presentation  currency  of  Jupiter  and  its  subsidiaries  is  Australian  dollars  ($).  
The presentation and functional currency for the interest in Tshipi is the South African Rand.

The results are translated into Australian dollars for disclosure in Jupiter’s consolidated accounts.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using 
the exchange rate as at the initial transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign 
currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.

(ii) 

Translation of interest in Joint Venture functional currency to presentation currency

The results of the South African Joint Venture interest are translated into Australian dollars using an average 
rate over the period of the transactions. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates prevailing 
at reporting dates.

(u) 

Adoption of New and Revised accounting standards and interpretations

During the current period, Jupiter adopted all of the new and revised Australian Accounting Standards and 
Interpretations applicable to its operations which became mandatory. The adoption of these standards has 
impacted the recognition, measurement and disclosure of certain transactions. The adoption of these standards 
was applied for the entire reporting period unless otherwise stated. These new pronouncements have had no 
significant impact on the group for this reporting period.

Adoption of AASBs and improvements to AASBs 2011 – AASB 1054 and AASB 2011-1

The AASB has issued AASB 1054 Australian Additional Disclosures and 2011-1 Amendments to Australian 
Accounting Standards arising from the Trans-Tasman Convergence Project, and made several minor amendments 
to a number of AASBs. These standards eliminate a large portion of the differences between the Australian and 
New Zealand accounting standards and IFRS and retain only additional disclosures considered necessary. 
These changes also simplify some current disclosures for Australian entities and remove others.

AASB  Interpretation  20  Stripping  Costs  in  the  Production  Phase  of  Surface  Mining  (applicable  for 
annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013).

This standard has been chosen for early adoption by the Group. The Group has recognised a deferred 
stripping asset in accordance with the requirements of this Interpretation. The deferred stripping asset has 
been capitalised as part of inventory, as a current asset. The Board believes that benefit will realised in the 
next 12 months.

This interpretation clarifies that costs of removing mine waste materials (overburden) to gain access to mineral 
ore  deposits  during  the  production  stage  of  a  mine  must  be  capitalised  as  inventories  under  AASB  102: 
Inventories if the benefits from stripping activity is realised in the form of inventory produced.

AASB 11 Joint Arrangements – effective for annual reporting period beginning on or after 1 January 2013

Nature of change:

AASB 11 replaces AASB 131 Interest in Joint Ventures and AASB Interpretation 113 Jointly-controlled entities- 
Non-Monetary Contributions by Ventures. AASB 111 uses the principle of control in AASB 10 to define joint 
control, and therefore the determination of whether control exists may change. In addition, AASB 11 removes 
the option to account for jointly-controlled entities (JCEs) using proportionate consolidation, whereby the Group 
combined its share of the JCEs individual income and expenses, assets and liabilities and cash flows on a 
line-by-line basis with similar items in the Group’s financial statements. 

The Group has now adopted AASB 11 Joint Arrangements in its 28 February 2014 annual financial report. 
Under AASB 11, investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures 
depending on the contractual rights and obligations of each investor.

Tshipi  é  Ntle  Manganese  Mining  (Proprietary)  Limited  was  previously  accounted  for  using  proportionate 
consolidation and has been assessed to meet the classification criteria of a joint venture under AASB 11. As a 
result, it has been accounted for using the equity method.

As  required  under  AASB  11,  the  change  in  accounting  policy  has  been  applied  retrospectively  and  as  a 
consequence, adjustments were recognised in the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2012 and 
30 June 2013 and in the income statement for the period ended 30 June 2013. The tables below show the 
effect of the change in accounting policy on individual line items in each of the financial statements. Line items 
not affected by the change have not been included. As a result, the sub-totals and totals disclosed cannot be

New accounting standards for Application in Future Periods

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 28 
February 2014 reporting periods and have not yet been applied in the financial report. Jupiter’s assessment of 
the impact of these new standards and interpretations is set out below.

AASB 9 Financial Instruments

AASB 9 introduces new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities. 
These requirements improve and simplify the approach for classification and measurement of financial assets 
compared with the requirements of AASB 139. The main changes are:

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

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

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

(d)  Where the fair value option is used for financial liabilities the change in fair value is to be accounted for 
as follows:

•	 The	change	attributable	to	changes	in	credit	risk	are	presented	in	other	comprehensive	income		

(OCI); and

•	 The	remaining	change	is	presented	in	profit	or	loss.

If this approach creates or enlarges an accounting mismatch in the profit or loss, the effect of the changes in 
credit risk are also presented in profit or loss.

Otherwise, the following requirements have generally been carried forward unchanged from AASB 139 into 
AASB 9:

•	 Classification	and	measurement	of	financial	liabilities;	and

•	 Derecognition	requirements	for	financial	assets	and	liabilities.

Consequential amendments were also made to other standards as a result of AASB 9, introduced by AASB 
2009-11 and superseded by AASB 2010-7 and AASB 2010-10.

AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements

AASB 10 establishes a revised control model that applies to all entities. It replaces the consolidation requirements 
in AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements and AASB Interpretation 112 Consolidation – 
Special Purpose Entities.

The revised control model broadens the situations when an entity is considered to be controlled by another 
entity and includes additional guidance for applying the model to specific situations, including when acting as 
an agent may give control, the impact of potential voting rights and when holding less than a majority voting 
rights may give ‘de facto’ control. This will have an impact on Jupiter as a consolidated entity.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2014

Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

AASB 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities

AASB 12 includes all disclosures relating to an entity’s interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and 
structures entities. New disclosures introduced by AASB 12 include disclosures about the judgements made by 
management to determine whether control exists, and to require summarised information about joint arrangements, 
associates and structured entities and subsidiaries with non-controlling interests. This will result in further disclosures 
being made by the group.

AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement

AASB 13 establishes a single source of guidance for determining the fair value of assets and liabilities. AASB 13 
does not change when an entity is required to use fair value, but rather, provides guidance on how to determine 
fair value when fair value is required or permitted by other Standards. Application of this definition may result in 
different fair values being determined for the relevant assets.

AASB 13 also expands the disclosure requirements for all assets or liabilities carried at fair value. This includes 
information  about  the  assumptions  made  and  the  qualitative  impact  of  those  assumptions  on  the  fair  value 
determined.

AASB 127 Separate Financial Statements

As a result of the issuance of AASB 10, AASB 127 has been restructured and reissued to only deal with separate 
financial statements. This may not have an impact on the group.

AASB 128 Investment in Associates and Joint Ventures

Once an entity (using AASB 11) has determined that it has an interest in a joint venture, it accounts for it using the 
equity method in accordance with AASB 128 (Revised). The mechanics of equity accounting set out in the revised 
version of AASB 128 remain the same as in the previous version.

AASB 2010-8 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards –Deferred Tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets

These  amendments  address  the  determination  of  deferred  tax  on  investment  property  measured  at  fair  value 
and introduce a rebuttable presumption that deferred tax on investment property measured at fair value should 
be determined on the basis that the carrying amount will be recoverable through sale. The amendments also 
incorporate AASB Interpretation 121 Income Taxes – Recovery of Revalued Non-Depreciable Assets into AASB 
112. This may not have an impact on the group, dependent upon any possible property transactions undertaken.

AASB 2011-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Consolidation and Joint 
Arrangements Standards

This  Standard  makes  consequential  amendments  to  various  Australian  Accounting  Standards  arising  from  the 
issuance of AASB 10, AASB 11, AASB 12, AASB 127 (August 2011) and AASB 128 (August 2011).

AASB 2011-9 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Presentation of Other Comprehensive Income

Amendments to group items presented in other comprehensive income on the basis of whether they are potentially 
reclassifiable to profit or loss in subsequent periods (reclassification adjustments, e.g. foreign currency translation 
reserves) and those that cannot subsequently be reclassified (e.g. fixed asset revaluation surpluses).

Name changes of statements in AASB 101 as follows:

•	 One	statement	of	comprehensive	income	–	to	be	referred	to	as	‘statement	of	profit	or	loss	and	other		 	
comprehensive income’

•	 Two	statements	–	to	be	referred	to	as	‘statement	of	profit	or	loss’	and	‘statement	of	comprehensive	income’.

The group will rename the financial statements as required.

AASB  2012-2 Amendments to  Australian Accounting  Standards  – Disclosures  – Offsetting Financial 
Assets and Financial Liabilities

This Standard amends the required disclosures in AASB 7 to include information that will enable users of an 
entity’s financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements, including rights of 
set-off associated with the entity’s recognised financial assets and recognised financial liabilities, on the entity’s 
financial position.

This Standard also amends AASB 132 to refer to the additional disclosures added to AASB 7 by this Standard. 
The group will be able to adopt this amendment to offset their financial assets and liabilities.

AASB  2012-3  Amendments  to  Australian  Accounting  Standards  –  Offsetting  Financial  Assets  and 
Financial Liabilities

This Standard adds application guidance to AASB 132 to address inconsistencies identified in applying some 
of the offsetting criteria of AASB 132, including clarifying the meaning of “currently has a legally enforceable 
right of set-off” and that some gross settlement systems may be considered equivalent to net settlement.

AASB  2012-5  Amendments  to  Australian  Accounting  Standards  arising  from  Annual  Improvements 
2009–2011 Cycle

These amendments are a consequence of the annual improvements process, which provides a vehicle for 
making non-urgent but necessary amendments to Standards.

These amendments follow the issuance of Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2009–2011 Cycle issued by the 
International Accounting Standards Board in May 2012.

Mandatory Effective Date of IFRS 9 and Transition Disclosures

This Standard amends IFRS 9 to require application for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015, 
rather than 1 January 2013. Early application of IFRS 9 is still permitted. IFRS 9 is also amended so that it 
does not require the restatement of comparative-period financial statements for the initial application of the 
classification and measurement requirements of IFRS 9, but instead requires modified disclosures on transition 
to IFRS 9.

Options are not included in the calculation, and could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future should 
they be exercised.

There is no dilutive potential for ordinary shares as the exercise of options to ordinary shares would have the effect of 
decreasing the loss per ordinary share and would therefore be non-dilutive.

Available-for-sale financial assets consist of investments in ASX listed companies’ ordinary shares, and therefore have no 
fixed maturity date or coupon rate. The fair value of listed available-for-sale investments has been determined directly by 
reference to published price quotations in an active market. This resulted in a net loss on revaluation of $171,335 for the 
2014 financial period. This loss is made up of $264,272 that has been expensed and a $92,937 gain that has been 
taken to the Financial Assets Reserve. For the 2013 financial year there was a net loss of $261,863, being $882,901 
that was expensed, and a $621,038 gain that was taken to the Financial Assets Reserve.

Note 23: Capital and Leasing Commitments (continued)
NOTE:

(a)  This is made of up two leases: non-cancellable lease of 5 years however it can be subleased (with prior consent 
of Lessor). Amounts include rent, outgoings and parking with 4% annual rent review increase. It does not take into 
account reduced guarantees or returned deposits or incentives. Figures based on 12 Months (1-Mar-14 to 28-Feb-15) 
and between 12 months and 4 years (1-Mar-15 to 30-May-16 which is the end of the lease); non-cancellable lease 
of 4 years & 4 months. Amounts include rent and outgoings with 4% annual rent review increase. It does not take 
into account reduced guarantees or returned deposits or incentives. Figures based on 12 Months (1-Mar-13 to 28-
Feb-15) and between 12 months and 4 years (1-Mar-15 to 30-May-16 which is the end of the lease). The expense 
recognised for the operating lease was $681,809 (June 2013: $865,721).

(b)  The property lease is non-cancellable for five-year, with rent payable monthly in advance.

Exploration Expenditure Commitments

In order to maintain current rights of tenure to exploration tenements, the Company and Group are required to perform 
minimum exploration work to meet the requirements specified by various State governments. These obligations can 
be  reduced  by  selective  relinquishment  of  exploration  tenure  or  application  for  expenditure  exemptions.  Due  to 
the nature of the Company and Group’s operations in exploring and evaluating areas of interest, it is very difficult 
to  forecast  the  nature  and  amount  of  future  expenditure.  It  is  anticipated  that  expenditure  commitments  for  the 
next twelve months will be tenement rentals of $508,109 (June 2013: $481,842) and exploration expenditure of 
$1,263,100 (June 2013: $1,299,684).

Note 24: Contingent Liabilities

Contingent Liabilities

The parent entity has provided guarantees to third parties in relation to the performance and obligations of controlled 
entities in respect of banking facilities. At reporting date, the value of these guarantees and facilities are $1,280,000 
(June 2013: $1,280,000). Total utilised at reporting date was $1,152,337 (June 2013: $1,152,337).

Contingent Assets

No contingent assets exist as 28 February 2014 or 30 June 2013.

Note 25: Segment Reporting 

The Group operates in the mining industry within Australia and South Africa.

The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the chief 
operating decision makers (the Board of Directors and key management) in assessing performance and determining the 
allocation of resources.

The Group segments are structured primarily on the basis of mineral as Central Yilgarn Iron Project (Iron Ore) located 
in Australia, Tshipi (Manganese) which is located in South Africa and Corporate/Unallocated. Expenses and assets 
are allocated to segments based on the tenement to which they directly relate. Information is not readily available for 
allocating the remaining items of revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities, or these items are not considered part of the 
core operations of any segment. Any transactions between reportable segments have been offset for these purposes.

The newly formed joint venture OM Tshipi (S) Pte Ltd has been established to act as a marketing agent for the sale 
of output of the Tshipi Manganese. Therefore its performance has been included within the Tshipi Manganese (South 
Africa) segment.

Note 27: Share-Based Payments

Each option granted under the Jupiter Mines Limited Employee Option Plan entitles the employee to acquire one ordinary 
share of Jupiter Mines Limited (JMS). There are no voting or dividend rights attaching to the options until they are exercised 
by the employee, at which point ordinary shares which rank equally with all other JMS shares are issued. The options 
cannot be transferred.

All options expire on  the  earlier of  their expiry date or termination of the individual’s employment. Should the Vesting 
Conditions (described below) not be met, options will lapse.

The terms and conditions of the grants on issue as at 28 February 2014 are as follows, whereby all options are settled

In total, $26,338 (June 2013: $189,344) of employee remuneration expense (all of which related to equity-settled share- 
based payment transactions) has been included in the profit and loss for 2014 and credited to share option reserve.

The expected volatility is based on the historic volatility of the Company (calculated on the weighted average remaining 
life of the share options), adjusted for any expected changes to volatility due to publicly available information.

Risk-free interest rates are based on 5 year government bonds.

Options will only convert to ordinary shares upon the achievement of a service condition.

Note 28: Events After the Reporting Date

In October 2013, the Jupiter Mines Limited applied to the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) for the removal of the 
Company from the official list.  The Company was de-listed from the Australian Securities Exchange on 10 January 2014, 
after approval was given by shareholders at the Company’s AGM in November 2013.

The  Company  also  applied  to  the  Australian  Securities  and  Investments  Commission  (“ASIC”)  to  change  its  financial 
year end from 30 June to 28 February. The change will allow alignment for the Company to align with the year end of 
the Tshipi Joint Venture, Jupiter’s primary project. The Tshipi Joint Venture accounts for a significant portion of the Group’s 
financial results and operations. The request of change of year end has been approved by ASIC subsequent to the year 
end. Accordingly, the first financial period is for the eight months to 28 February 2014, and subsequent period will end 
on 28 February each year.

The Directors monitor the Group’s financial risk management policies and exposures and approves financial transactions.

The Directors’ overall risk management strategy seeks to assist the Group in meeting its financial targets, while minimising 
potential adverse effects on financial performance. Its functions include the review of credit risk policies and future cash 
flow requirements.

Specific Financial Risk Exposures and Management

The  main  risks  the  Group  is  exposed  to  through  its  financial  instruments  are  credit  risk,  liquidity  risk  and  market  risk 
consisting of interest rate risk, liquidity risk and equity price risk.

JUPITER MINES LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2014

 
 
 
 
 
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2014

Note 30: Financial Instruments (continued)

(a)  Credit Risk

Exposure to credit risk relating to financial assets arises from the potential non-performance by counterparties of contract 
obligations that could lead to a financial loss to the Group.

Credit risk is managed through the maintenance of procedures (such procedures include the utilisation of systems for 
the approval, granting and renewal of credit limits, regular monitoring of exposures against such limits and monitoring 
of the financial stability of significant customers and counterparties), ensuring to the extent possible, that customers 
and counterparties to transactions are of sound  credit worthiness. Such monitoring is used in assessing receivables 
for impairment.

Risk is also minimised through investing surplus funds in financial institutions that maintain a high credit rating, or in entities 
that the Directors have otherwise cleared as being financially sound.

Credit Risk Exposures

The  maximum  exposure  to  credit  risk  by  class  of  recognised  financial  assets  at  reporting  date,  excluding  the  value  of  any 
collateral  or  other  security  held,  is  equivalent  to  the  carrying  value  and  classification  of  those  financial  assets  (net  of  any 
provisions) as presented in the statement of financial position. Credit risk also arises through the provision of financial guarantees, 
as approved at Board level, given to parties securing the liabilities of certain subsidiaries (refer Note 24 for details).

Trade and other receivables that are neither past due or impaired are considered to be of high credit quality. Aggregates 
of such amounts are as detailed in Note 10.

There are no amounts of collateral held as security in respect of trade and other receivables.

The Group does not have any material credit risk exposure to any single receivable or group of receivables under financial 
instruments entered into by the Consolidated Group.

Credit risk related to balances with banks and other financial institutions is managed by investing cash with major financial 
institutions in both cash on deposit and term deposit accounts. Interest rates on major deposits that are re-invested, are at 
a fixed rate on a monthly basis.

(b)  Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or otherwise meeting its 
obligations related to financial liabilities. The Group manages this risk through the following mechanisms:

−   preparing forward looking cash flow analysis in relation to its operational, investing and financing activities;
−   monitoring undrawn credit facilities;
−   obtaining funding from a variety of sources;
−   maintaining a reputable credit profile;
−   managing credit risk related to financial assets;
−   only investing surplus cash with major financial institutions; and comparing the maturity profile of financial liabilities with 

the realisation profile of financial assets.

The Group has no significant exposure to liquidity risk due to the level of cash and cash equivalents detailed at Note 9. 
The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring immediate and forecast cash requirements and ensuring adequate cash 
reserves are maintained.

Market risk arises from the Groups use of interest bearing and foreign currency financial instruments. It is the risk that the fair 
value of future cash flows  of a of a financial instrument will fluctuate because  of changes  in interest rates (interest rate risk), 
foreign exchange (currency risk) or other market factors (other price risk).

(i)  Interest rate risk

Exposure to interest rate risk arises on financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at the end of the 
reporting period whereby a future change  in interest rates will affect future cash flows  or the fair value 
of fixed  rate financial instruments. The financial assets and financial liabilities with exposure to interest 
rate risk are detailed below:

Financial Assets
Cash and cash equivalents
Other Non-Current Assets

Financial Liabilities

(ii)   Foreign exchange risk

Jupiter  operates  internationally  and  is  exposed  to  foreign  exchange  risk  arising  from  various  currency 
exposures  primarily  with  respect  to  the  Australian  Dollar  and  South  African  Rand.  Jupiter’s  exposure  to 
currency risk is on cash, trade receivables, and borrowings. Foreign currency risk is the risk of exposure to 
transactions that are denominated in a currency other than the Australian dollar. The carrying amounts of 
the Group’s financial assets and liabilities are denominated in two different currencies as set out below:

Total $
41,124,477

Price risk relates to the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate 
because of changes in market prices largely due to demand and supply factors for commodities. As the 
Group does not derive revenue from sale of products, the effect on profit and equity as a result of changes 
in  the  price  risk  is  not  considered  material.  The  fair  value  of  the  mining  projects  will  be  impacted  by 
commodity price changes (predominantly iron ore, nickel and uranium) and could impact future revenues

The  net  fair  values  of  cash  and  cash  equivalents  and  non-interest  bearing  monetary  financial  assets  and  liabilities 
approximates their carrying value. The net fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities is based upon market 
prices where a market exists or by discounting the expected future cash flows by the current interest rates for assets and 
liabilities with similar risk profiles.

Listed equity investments have been valued by reference to market prices prevailing at reporting date.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2014

Note 30: Financial Instruments (continued)

The fair values in the above table have been determined based on the following methodology:

(i)  Cash  and  cash  equivalents,  trade  and  other  receivables  and  trade  and  other  payables  are  short-term 
investments in nature whose carrying value is equivalent to fair value. Trade and other payables exclude 
amounts provided for annual leave which is not considered a financial instrument.

(ii)  For listed available-for-sale financial assets, closing quoted bid prices at the end of the reporting period are 

used. Unlisted available-for-sale financial assets are recorded at cost.

Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value

The financial instruments recognised at fair value in the statement of financial position have been analysed and classified 
using  a  fair  value  hierarchy  reflecting  the  significance  of  the  inputs  used  in  making  the  measurements.  The  fair  value 
hierarchy consists of the following levels:

−   quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1);

−   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

−   inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) (Level 3).
