Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholders,

On behalf of the Board of Jupiter Mines, I am pleased to present the Annual Report for the financial year ending 28 February 2021.

It has certainly been a difficult year for all. This time last year, we were embarking on an unprecedented global humanitarian and 
economic crisis. To say that Jupiter, and Tshipi, have fared well is an understatement when many businesses suffered. As the overall 
wellness of its employees and contractors is paramount, Tshipi has employed several resources in response to COVID-19 pandemic.

Whilst the manganese price remined depressed over the year, Tshipi continued to be the enterprising operation it is, by adjusting 
targets  in  light  of  reduced  and  altered  logistics  availability.  Tshipi  remained  profitable  throughout  the  pandemic,  exporting  
3.4 million tonnes and paying dividends to shareholders of just over ZAR 1.43 billion. I applaud the efforts of the management teams 
on the ground.

Jupiter remained cautious at the beginning of the financial year, however declared total dividends of $59 million, an average yield of 10%. 

In the midst of increasing iron ore prices and restricted supply, the Jupiter Board embarked on a demerger of its Central Yilgarn Iron 
Project, into new company, Juno Minerals. Jupiter shareholders received an in-specie distribution of shares in Juno, and Juno listed 
on the ASX earlier this month. With the spin-out of Juno now complete, Jupiter moves forward as a pure play manganese company, 
with a focus on the expansion of the Tshipi mine and consolidation within the Kalahari manganese region.

I again thank all shareholders for your continued support of Jupiter. 

Yours Faithfully,

Brian Gilbertson
Chairman

Operating and  
Financial Review

Jupiter  Mines  Limited  (“Jupiter”  or  the  “Company”)  has  an 
interest in two areas: a 49.9% share in Tshipi é Ntle Manganese 
Mining  (Proprietary)  Limited  (“Tshipi”),  which  operates  the 
Tshipi Borwa Manganese mine (“Tshipi Borwa”) in South Africa; 
and in Australia, the Central Yilgarn Iron Project (“CYIP”), which 
includes  the  Mount  Ida  Magnetite  Project  (“Mount  Ida”)  and 
Mount Mason Hematite Project (“Mount Mason”).

tSHipi BORwA MAngAneSe Mine 

The Tshipi Borwa mine is an open-pit manganese mine with 
an  integrated  ore  processing  plant  located  in  the  Kalahari 
Manganese  Fields,  in  the  Northern  Cape  Province  of  South 
Africa,  which  is  the  largest  manganese  bearing  geological 
formation in the world. Tshipi remains the largest manganese 
mine in South Africa and one of the five largest globally, with a 
long-life resource and low operating costs.

Despite  a  challenging  year  due  to  mining  and  COVID-19  related  restrictions,  Tshipi  exported  3.417  million  tonnes  (FY2020:  3.408 
million tonnes), the second highest exports recorded by Tshipi.

During the year, Tshipi experienced mining challenges due to 
difficulty  in  cuts,  delayed  fleet  mobilisation,  excessive  rainfall 
and  the  South  African  COVID-19  lockdown.  However,  Tshipi 
completed  FY2021  above  adjusted  targeted  production  with 
3.353 million tonnes (FY2020: 3.410 million tonnes). 

Manganese  prices  remained  depressed  over  the  year, 
averaging  US$3.83  (per  dmtu,  Metal  Bulletin  37%  Free  on 
Board  (“FOB”)  Port  Elizabeth)  (FY2020:  US$4.18)  due  to  the 
uncertainty  around  the  COVID-19  pandemic  and  reduced 
industrial activity in China. 

Tshipi however remained profit and cash positive throughout 
the  year  and  declared  and  paid  dividends  of  ZAR1.43  billion 
(FY2020: ZAR2.015 billion).

tSHipi enviROnMentAL, SOciAL  
& gOveRnAnce RepORt

Tshipi  continues  with 
its  commitment  to  sustainable 
development  and  continual  improvement  to  minimise  the 
impact  on  the  environment  and  providing  lasting  benefits 
to  the  surrounding  communities.  Tshipi  places  strong 
emphasis  on  worker  health  and  safety,  and  management  of 
environmental risks by developing and implementing systems 
and processes. 

Environment

Legal Compliance and Strategy Alignment

The  Department  of  Water  and  Sanitation  granted  Tshipi  the 
amended  Water  Use  Licence  (“WUL”)  on  5  November  2020, 
which  authorised  the  increased  footprint  of  the  Northern 
Waste Rock Dump, merging of Eastern Dump and Mamatwan 
Sinterfontein  Dump,  expansion  of  the  Western  Waste  Rock 
Dump,  relocated  Storm  water  Dam,  increase  of  dewatering 
volumes from the pit and the two new abstraction boreholes.

Tshipi’s Environmental Management Plan (“EMP”) Amendment 
Application that was submitted to the Department of Mineral 
Resources  and  Energy  (“DMRE”)  on  2  October  2019,  that 
sought to review its commitment to completely backfill the pit 
and leave a pit lake in the northern section of the mine (EMP3 
Application),  was  rejected  by  the  DMRE  on  13  October  2020 
giving the following reasons:

 ƒ The Closure objectives will not be sustainable since half of 

the pit will be left opened and partially rehabilitated;

 ƒ Amendments  will  result  in  an  increase  in  the  footprint  of 

the mine dumps;

4   

 ƒ Amendments  will  have  negative  environmental  impacts 

and pose danger in terms of health and safety;

 ƒ Current  approved  EMP  commitment  does  not  have 

financial implication after closure;

 ƒ Proposed  Amendments  does  not  make 

sound 

environmental, socio-economic and technical sense.

to 

Tshipi  has  submitted  an  Appeal  Application 
the 
Department  of  Environment,  Forestry  and  Fisheries  (“DEFF”) 
on  10  November  2020.  The  Appeal  Application  decision  was 
delayed  by  three  months  with  the  DMRE  only  submitting 
their responding statement on 1 March 2021 with a request for 
condonation of its late filing. In order not to delay the process 
further,  Tshipi  decided  not  to  object  against  the  DMRE’s 
condonation request. On 11 March 2021, the Minister of DEFF 
granted the condonation request.  

Tshipi  will  continue  with  its  option  analysis  pending  the 
outcome of the appeal decision. 

Water management

Tshipi  has  expanded  its  onsite  catchment  capacity  in  terms 
of  water  storage  dams  from  39,000m3  to  91,000m3  with  the 
operationalisation  of  the  new  stormwater  dam.    The  new 
52,000m3  stormwater  dam  increases  Tshipi’s  capacity  to 
capture water during the rainy months and cater for a one in 
fifty-year flood event.  From an operational point of view, priority 
is  given  to  reusing  dirty  water,  and  75,681m3  was  available 
during  FY2021  for  collection  in  the  dirty  water  dams  and  for 
use for dust suppression of roads and in the processing plant, 
decreasing  the  use  of  fresh  potable  water  from  Sedibeng, 
the  potable  water  service  provider.  The  sewage  system  was 
upgraded to ensure effective cleaning and purification of grey 
water that was recycled back to the dirty water dams.

Solid waste management

The  focus  on  efficient  waste  management  practises  has 
contributed  to  reducing  the  volumes  of  offsite  hazardous 
waste  disposal  and  the  use  of  the  bioremediation  facility  is 
progressing. 

Biodiversity Offset Project

The  establishment  of  a  Biodiversity  Offset  as  required  by  the 
National  Environmental  Management  Act  (“NEMA”)  is  ongoing 
and Tshipi has identified three properties for further engagement 
with  the  landowners.  The  FY2022  Biodiversity  Offset  Project 
objectives  are  to  conclude  the  land  purchase  transaction  and 
biodiversity  offset  declaration  process  and  also  investigate  the 
inclusion  of  Creative  Social  Initiatives  to  develop  a  sustainable 
management solution for the declared Biodiversity Offset.

Safety

Tshipi  recorded  2  lost  time  injuries  (“LTIs”)  during  FY2021  and  none  for  FY2022  to  date.    Although  injury  indices  for  all  indicators 
trended below the thresholds, Tshipi commenced with the implementation of systematic processes to create an Enabling Work 
Environment  by  addressing  its  safety  culture,  strengthening  workplace  controls,  systems  and  processes,  formalising  the  Tshipi 
Wellness Plan and integrating with all stakeholders to ensure a multifaceted approach to safety challenges. 

To achieve a shift from focus on lagging to leading indicators and achieve real risk reduction, the following areas of which work has 
already commenced in the last quarter of FY2021, has been identified for detailed implementation in FY2022:  

 ƒ

 Tshipi Wellness Plan including hygiene measures;

 ƒ Workplace Control;

 ƒ Standards, Process and Competencies;

 ƒ Safety Culture; and

 ƒ Management Systems.

Health & Corporate Social 
Responsibility 

The  overall  wellness  of  employees  remains  a  strategic 
imperative to Tshipi and more so with the outbreak of COVID-19 
during  March  2020  in  South  Africa.  Tshipi  augmented  the 
onsite  health  service  with  further  capacity  in  terms  of  full-
time  screening  staff  and  resources,  which  assisted  greatly  in 
containing  the  spread  of  COVID-19  when  Tshipi  recorded  its 
first case on 13 July 2020. A Moolmans employee sadly passed 
away  on  12  May  2021.  The  cause  of  death  on  the  certificate 
was  due  to  natural  death,  however  subsequently  a  positive 
COVID-19 test result was received.

Tshipi continues to provide free onsite medical screening and 
health care for all employees, including Contractors. Through 
the Wellness section and the Memorandum of Understanding 
with the Department of Health, the clinic provides medication 
and long-term treatment for Diabetes, Hypertension, Asthma, 
Epilepsy  and  HIV  and  Aids,  and  has  recorded  an  uptake  of 
81% of employees that were impacted by health issues. Tshipi 
has also employed a Dietician on a part-time basis to address 
the  underlying  causes  of  employee  health  issues  and  61%  of 
impacted employees are making use of this service. The Clinic 
has  conducted  2,600  medical  screenings  during  FY2021,  of 
which the only abnormalities, recorded at 3%, were associated 
with pre-employment offsite hearing loss. 

Health incidents are trending in the right direction, confirming 
that the strategy is yielding the intended benefits to employees 
and the operation at large. 

In  response  to  the  COVID-19  pandemic,  Tshipi  continues 
maintaining  a  rigorous  screening  process  and  testing 
program for those employees who fulfil the criteria for testing, 
and enforcement of onsite and offsite preventative behaviour 
campaign  as 
its  highest  control  against  the  spread  of 
COVID-19. In addition to the onboarding of COVID-19 Medical 
Screening  staff  to  conduct  daily  screening  of  all  employees, 
COVID Compliance Coordinators have also been onboarded to 
conduct  continuous  compliance  monitoring  and  awareness 
communication of critical COVID-19 Controls.  

Tshipi  has  also  introduced  Antigen  rapid  testing  to  enable  a 
quick response to COVID-19 suspected cases.  

Tshipi has taken action in preparation for the Governmental roll 
out of COVID-19 vaccines but is however cautiously assessing 
the  potential  legal  risks  associated  with  Tshipi’s  registration 
and operation of a vaccination site especially in the absence of 
guidance from legislation and regulator.  

Social Economic Development

Tshipi’s  Corporate  Social  Responsibility  (“CSR”)  standing  and 
trend  is  satisfactory  and  embeds  its  belief  in  transformation 
and sustainable development. Tshipi is compliant with all CSR 
legislation and regulations and this ensures that it continues 
to secure its social license to operate. 

Overview of achievements for this reporting period: 

 ƒ A  black  ownership  exceeding  the  minimum  threshold 

maintained;

 ƒ A  workforce  comprising  of  more  than  91%  Historically 

Disadvantaged South Africans (“HDSA”); 

 ƒ

Invested  in  training  initiatives  for  HDSA  learners,  artisans, 
apprentices,  scholars  and  employees  as  committed  in 
Tshipi’s social labour plans; 

 ƒ Continues  with  initiatives  to  divert  spend  on  procuring 
goods  and  services  to  BEE  compliant,  Black  Women 
Owned, Black Youth Owned and HDSA Owned companies 
as per commitments with the regulator; 

 ƒ Completed  projects  to  refurbish  school  and  providing 
access to water and ablution facilities for school children as 
well as purchasing of school furniture; 

 ƒ Contributed towards food security (food parcels) in support 

of the local Mayor’s initiative over December 2020. 

 ƒ Tshipi  is  compliant  with  the  Mining  Charter  for  an  audit 
period  of  FY2021.  Tshipi  achieved  Level  2  on  scorecard 
elements  (Human  Resources  Development,  Employment 
Equity and Inclusive Procurement, Supplier and Enterprise 
Development.  Tshipi  is  fully  compliant  on  all  ring-fenced 
elements  (Ownership,  Housing  and  Living  Condition,  and 
Mine Community Development);

 ƒ Tshipi has signed a 3-year wage agreement with the Trade 
Union  on  15  May  2020.  The  agreement  covers  the  period 
from FY2021 until FY2023; and

 ƒ Tshipi has created an Enterprise and Supplier Development 
Fund.  Creating  a  Social  Fund  has  allowed  Tshipi  to 
proactively  respond  to  the  BBBEE  Codes  and  Mining 
Charter  requirements.  The  Fund  will  support  and  invest 
in  supply  chain  and  value  chain  initiatives  mainly  but 
also  Social  Labour  Plan  initiatives.  The  Fund  will  provide 
financial  and  non-financial  support  in  partnership  with 
implementation partners where necessary.

Tshipi’s  achievements  show  how  it  has  used  its  business 
success  to  benefit  the  environment,  economy  and  tackle 
social issues.

MAngAneSe MARKeting

Jupiter continued its operations in South Africa (“Jupiter SA”) as an agent marketing its 49.9% share of Tshipi manganese ore.

For the financial year to 28 February 2021, Jupiter SA recorded marketing fee income of $8,202,796 (2020: $10,358,857). 

Manganese prices remained depressed over the year, owing mainly to the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. Chinese port 
stocks also remained high towards the end of the 2020 calendar year. For FY2022, it is expected that demand for manganese ore will 
be strong in light of many countries such as the United States initiating large infrastructure investment post-pandemic.

The  Central  Yilgarn  Iron  Project  is  located  130km  by  road 
northwest  of  the  town  of  Menzies.  The  CYIP  consists  of  the 
long-life Mount Ida Magnetite project and the smaller Mount 
Mason  Hematite  DSO  project.  Both  projects  are  planned 
around  existing  infrastructure  in  the  region,  including  the 
Leonora to Esperance railway line, and the Port of Esperance. 

The flagship Mount Ida Magnetite Project has the high quality 
JORC  mineral  resources  to  be  a  tier  one  long-life  magnetite 
mine.

The  Mount  Mason  high-grade  hematite  mineralisation  is 
located  approximately  12km  northwest  of  the  Mount  Ida 
Magnetite  Project.  It  has  the  potential  to  be  a  low-cost  start-
up, near term project with a short payback period. 

In October 2020, Jupiter announced its intention to demerger 
the  CYIP  assets  into  a  new  company,  Juno  Minerals  Limited 
(“Juno”).  Juno  would  also  apply  to  be  listed  on  the  ASX  with 
the focus of developing the Mount Mason project in the near-
term.  The  Mining  Assets  Sale  and  Purchase  Agreement  was 
completed in January 2021, and the demerger was finalised in 
early May.

Figure 6: Reconciliation between 28 February 2021 and 29 February 2020 Mineral Resource Estimate in accordance with JORC Code 
(2012)

The changes in the Mineral Resource estimates from 29 February 2020 to 28 February 2021 are a combination of mining depletion 
and  updates  to  the  structural  interpretation  after  incorporation  of  new  drilling  data  from  the  2020  drilling  campaign  which 
consequently effected conversion of approximately 29.2Mt of Mineral Resource from Indicated to Measured category.

Figure 9: Reconciliation between 28 February 2021 and 29 February 2020 Ore Reserve in accordance with JORC Code (2012)

Mining depletion during the period 29 February 2020 to 28 February 2021 was approximately 2.4Mt with a further reduction due to 
a 40m stand-off between waste dump toes and the open pit edge of 4.2Mt, totalling 6.78Mt.

During the course of 2020, Tshipi completed part of its on-going infill exploration drilling programme. The 2020 exploration drilling 
campaign was largely focused at increasing geological confidence in the central portion of the Mineral Resource footprint. As part 
of Tshipi’s Mineral Resources Management (MRM) cycle, The Mineral Corporation assisted Tshipi in updating the geological model 
through incorporation of new drilling data from the 2020 drilling campaign.

The  information  in  this  report  with  respect  of  the  Tshipi  mine  that  relates  to  Reporting  of  Mineral  Resources  and  Ore  Reserves 
estimation  is  based  on  information  compiled  by  Mr  Jonathan  Buckley  and  Mr  Efet  Banda.  Mr  Jonathan  Buckley  is  a  Fellow  of 
the  Southern  African  Institute  of  Mining  and  Metallurgy.  Mr  Efet  Banda  is  a  member  of  the  South  African  Council  for  Natural 
Scientific Professions (Reg. No. 400035/16). Mr Buckley and Mr Banda are employed by The Mineral Corporation. They have sufficient 
experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which being 
undertaking to qualify as a “Competent Person” as defined in the JORC Code. Mr Buckley and Mr Banda consent to the inclusion in 
this report of the statements based on their information as provided in the Technical Bulletin dated 31 March 2021, in the form and 
context in which they appear.

Mr Gilbertson was appointed a Director on 22 June 2010 and 
subsequently appointed a member of the Remuneration and 
Nomination Committee on 15 March 2018.

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  Limited  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  Limited  restructured  its  non-precious  metals 
interests  as  Billiton  plc.  With  Mr  Gilbertson  as  Executive 
Chairman,  Billiton  plc  raised  USD1.5  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. 

late  2003,  Mr  Gilbertson 

In 
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  (USD876  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  USD30  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  2005  and  2007 
respectively, to develop opportunities on behalf of a group of 
natural resource investors.

in  2004.  At  the  time  of  his  departure  in  October  2005  to  
co-found  Pallinghurst  Resources  LLP,  the  KCM  stake 
was  valued  at  USD  1  billion,  and  Vedanta  had  a  market 
capitalisation of USD 7.5 billion.

Priyank was instrumental in delivering Pallinghurst Resources’ 
steel feed strategy via Jupiter. That has led to the creation of 
the flagship Tshipi Mine, from what was a greenfield project, 
into one of the largest, long-life and low-cost assets of strategic 
importance.

Prior to Vedanta, Priyank was a mining and metals investment 
in  Toronto  Canada, 
banker  with  CIBC  World  Markets 
is  a  qualified  Metallurgical  Engineer,  MBA  and  former 
Falconbridge employee. 

Mr  Thapliyal  has  not  been  a  Director  of  any  other  ASX  listed 
companies in the past three years.

Hans-Jürgen Mende

MBA (University of Cologne)

(Non-Executive Director)

Mr  Mende  was  appointed  as  a  Director  of  the  Company  on  
9 October 2019.

Mr  Mende  is  Executive  Chairman  of  the  AMCI  Group,  which 
he  co-founded  in  1986.  AMCI  is  a  substantial  shareholder  of 
Jupiter.

Mr  Mende  has  considerable  experience  in  the  global  steel 
and  coal  industries,  and  within  Australia  and  South  Africa. 
He  has  served  on  the  board  of  many  resources  companies 
and  was  a  founder  and  former  non-executive  director  of 
Whitehaven Coal.

Mr  Mende  has  not  been  a  Director  of  any  other  ASX  listed 
companies in the past three years.

Brian Beem

B.A. Politics (Princeton University)

(Non-Executive Director; alternate to 
Hans-Jürgen Mende)

Priyank Thapliyal was appointed as a Director of the Company 
on 4 June 2008.

Priyank joined Sterlite Industries in 2000 and worked alongside 
Mr  Anil  Agarwal  (owner)  to  implement  the  strategies  that 
led  to  the  creation  of  Vedanta  Resources  plc,  a  FTSE  100 
company.    Vedanta  floated  on  the  London  Stock  Exchange 
(LSE) in December 2003 and raised USD 870 million in its IPO, 
in what was the largest mining IPO on the LSE that year, and 
also the first primary listing of an Indian company on the LSE.  
The  success  of  the  Vedanta  IPO  was  instrumental  in  other 
emerging market mining companies seeking LSE listings. 

Mr  Beem  was  appointed  as  an  alternate  to  Hans  Mende  on  
9 October 2019.

Mr  Beem  is  the  Managing  Director  of  the  AMCI  Group  and 
manages  the  majority  of  the  portfolio  of  their  private  equity 
investments. Mr Beem has led numerous investments in AMCI 
portfolio companies and serves on several of their boards.

Mr  Beem  has  not  been  a  Director  of  any  other  ASX  listed 
companies in the past three years.

decade, including Group Financial Controller positions within

operation  of  the  Tshipi  Manganese  Mine  in  South  Africa  and 
the sale of manganese ore.

In October 2020, Jupiter announced its intention to demerge 
the  CYIP  assets  into  a  new  company,  Juno  Minerals  Limited 
(“Juno”).  Juno  would  also  apply  to  be  listed  on  the  ASX  with 
the focus of developing the Mount Mason project in the near-

completed in January 2021, and the demerger was finalised in 
early May.

the following dividends:

from 

its  South  African 

On 22 April 2021, the Directors declared a final dividend for the 
year ended 28 February 2021 of $0.02 per ordinary share, paid 
on 21 May 2021.

On 7 May 2021, Jupiter completed the demerger of its Central 
Yilgarn  Iron  Assets  through  Juno  Minerals  Limited  (“Juno”), 
after which Juno was no longer a wholly owned subsidiary of 
Jupiter.

Likely Developments, Business 
Strategies and Prospects

The  operations  at  the  Tshipi  Borwa  Manganese  Mine  are 
expected to continue in a similar manner to present.

Environmental Regulations and 
Performance

Jupiter’s  operations  are  subject  to  general  environmental 
regulation  under  the  laws  of  the  States  and  Territories  of 
Australia  and  South  Africa.  The  various  exploration  interests 
held  by  Jupiter  impose  future  environmental  obligations  for 
site remediation following sampling and drilling programs.

The Board is aware of these requirements and management 
is  charged  with  ensuring  compliance.  The  Directors  are  not 
aware of any breaches of these environmental regulations and 
licence obligations during the year.

Please refer to the Tshipi Environmental, Social & Governance 
Report  in  the  Operating  and  Financial  Review  on  page  4  for 
full details.

Remuneration Report 

Letter f rom Remuneration and Nomination Committee Chairman

Dear Shareholders

On behalf of the Remuneration and Nomination Committee (“RemCom”), I am pleased to present the 2021 Remuneration Report 
for Jupiter Mines Limited.

The 2021 financial year certainly presented a number of challenges. It is under such difficult times that boards and management 
are tested, and their worth, as shown in this Remuneration Report, is evidenced. Against this challenging backdrop, the Tshipi and 
Jupiter Board and Management have continued to deliver as promised during the 2018 IPO:

1.  Continued double digit dividend yields and payout ratio of significantly over the 70% stated amount;

2.  Optimisation of Jupiter’s portfolio via the demerger of Juno Minerals;

3.  Expansion of Tshipi’s operation and

4.  Cost optimisation of via additional rail transport channels and the barrier pillar agreement.

Jupiter’s RemCom has again this year measured Management’s remuneration against shareholder expectation, market peers, and 
the delivery of economic targets. Given the exceptionally good result compared to the potential for economic loss during the year, 
the RemCom believe the type and amount of remuneration of its key executives to be fair. 

At  last  year’s  Annual  General  Meeting,  our  shareholders  again  chose  to  vote  significantly  against  the  Remuneration  Report, 
resulting in another “first strike”. Whilst the Rem Com and Board continue to evaluate shareholder concerns, I believe the Board 
and  Management  have  shown  their  abilities  in  navigating  troubled  waters.  I  would  urge  all  shareholders  and  proxy  advisors  to 
consider this.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all shareholders for their ongoing support of Jupiter. I recommend this remuneration 
report to all shareholders and welcome the opportunity to discuss it with you before or during the Annual General Meeting.

Yours faithfully

Paul Murray
Independent Non-Executive Director
Chairman, Remuneration and Nomination Committee

Remuneration Report (Audited)

the 
The  Directors  of  Jupiter  Mines  Limited  present 
Remuneration  Report  for  Non-Executive  Directors,  Executive 
Directors  and  other  Key  Management  Personnel,  prepared 
in  accordance  with  the  Corporations  Act  2001  and  the 
Corporations Regulations 2001. 

The Remuneration Report is set out under the following main 
headings: 

(a)  Principles used to determine the nature and amount of 

remuneration;

(b)  Details of remuneration;

(c)  Service agreements;

(d)  Share-based remuneration;

(e)  Bonuses included in remuneration; and

(f)  Other information.

a.  principles used to determine 
remuneration strategy and 
structure

The  principles  of  the  Group’s  executive  strategy  and 
frameworks are: 

 ƒ

 ƒ

 ƒ

to align rewards to business outcomes that deliver value to 
shareholders;

to  drive  a  high  performance  culture  and  rewarding  high 
performing individuals; and 

to  ensure  remuneration  is  competitive  in  the  relevant 
employment  market  place  to  support  the  attraction, 
motivation and retention of executive talent.

The  Board  has  established  a  Remuneration  and  Nomination 
Committee  which  operates  in  accordance  with  its  charter  as 
approved by the Board and is responsible for determining and 
reviewing compensation arrangements for the Directors and 
the Executive Team.

The  remuneration  structure  that  has  been  adopted  by  the 
Group consists of the following components: 

 ƒ fixed remuneration being annual salary; and 

 ƒ

short term incentives, being employee bonuses.

The  Remuneration  and  Nomination  Committee  assess  the 
appropriateness  of  the  nature  and  amount  of  remuneration 
on a periodic basis by reference to recent employment market 
conditions  with  the  overall  objective  of  ensuring  maximum 
stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality Board 
and Executive Team. 

The  payment  of  bonuses  and  other  incentive  payments  are 
reviewed  by  the  Remuneration  and  Nomination  Committee 
annually as part of the review of executive remuneration and a 
recommendation is put to the Board for approval. All bonuses 
and incentives must be linked to pre-determined performance 
criteria. 

Short Term Incentive (STI) 

Jupiter  performance  measures  involve  the  use  of  annual 
performance objectives. 

The  performance  measures  have  been  set  after  consultation 
with the Directors and executives and are specifically tailored 
to  the  areas  where  each  executive  has  a  level  of  control.  The 
measures  target  areas  the  Board  believes  hold  the  greatest 
potential for expansion and profit. 

The key performance indicators (KPIs) for the Executive Team 
are summarised as follows: 

Performance areas:

 ƒ Financial:  net  profit  before  tax  and  impairments  and 

distributions to shareholders

 ƒ Non-financial: discretionary strategic and/or project based 

objectives set by the Board.

Consequences of performance on shareholder wealth 

In considering the Group’s performance and benefits for shareholder wealth, the Board have regard to the following items in respect

Corporate Governance 
Statement

1.  Overview

The Company’s Board of Directors (Board) is responsible for the overall corporate governance of the Company, and it recognises the 
need for the highest standards of ethical behaviour and accountability.  It is committed to administering its corporate governance 
structures  to  promote  integrity  and  responsible  decision-making.    Accordingly,  where  appropriate  the  Company  has  sought  to 
adopt the ‘Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations’ (Fourth Edition) (ASX Recommendations) published by the 
ASX Corporate Governance Council.

The corporate governance principles and practices adopted by the Company may depart from those generally applicable to ASX-
listed companies under ASX Recommendations where the Board considers compliance is not appropriate having regard to the 
nature and size of the Company’s business and operations.

The Company sets out below its “if not why not” report in relation to those matters of corporate governance where the Company’s 
practice departs from the ASX Recommendations to the extent that they are currently applicable to the Company.  

This statement is current as at 27 May 2021 and has been approved by the Board.

its board and management; and

(b)  those matters expressly reserved to 

the board and those delegated to 
management.

Under the Board Charter, the Board is responsible for

1.2

A listed entity should:

Yes

(a)  undertake appropriate checks before 

appointing a person, or putting forward to 
security holders a candidate for election, as 
a director; and

(b)  provide security holders with all material 
information in its possession relevant to a 
decision on whether or not to elect or re-
elect a director.

Jupiter conducts background checks of candidates 
for the position of director of the Company (Director) 
prior to their appointment or nomination for election 
by Shareholders, including checks as to good character, 
experience, education, qualifications, criminal history 
and bankruptcy.

The Company does not propose to conduct specific 
checks prior to nominating an existing Director for 
re-election by Shareholders at a general meeting on 
the basis that each incumbent Director is required 
to submit to the ASX ‘good fame and character’ 
assessment during the Company’s admission to the 
official list of ASX.

As a matter of practice, Jupiter includes in its notices 
of meeting a brief biography and other material 
information in relation to each Director who stands for 
election or re-election, including relevant qualifications 
and professional experience of the nominated Director 
for consideration by Shareholders.

The Company has entered into an employment contract 
with Priyank Thapliyal, the Company’s Chief Executive 
Officer, and Melissa North, the Company’s Chief Financial 
Officer, who are engaged on a full-time basis.  The 
Company has entered into letters of engagement with 
each of its non-executive Directors setting out the key 
terms and conditions of their engagement.

A listed entity should have a written agreement 
with each director and senior executive setting 
out the terms of their appointment.

Yes

The company secretary of a listed entity should 
be accountable directly to the board, through 
the chair, on all matters to do with the proper 
functioning of the board.

Yes

The Company Secretary reports directly, and is 
accountable, to the Board through the Chairman of the 
Board (Chairman) in relation to all governance matters.

The Company Secretary also advises and supports the 
Board to implement adopted governance procedures 
and co-ordinates the circulation of meeting agendas 
and papers.

Principle ASX Recommendation

Comply Comments

Given the Company’s main asset is its interest in the 
Tshipi Borwa Manganese Mine (Tshipi Project), which it 
holds through its indirect 49.9% interest in Tshipi é Ntle, 
and Jupiter itself has few employees, Jupiter has not 
adopted a formal diversity policy at this stage. 

The Company appointed its first female Director to 
the Board on 14 March 2019, however this appointed 
was not approved by shareholders and Ms North was 
removed from the Board on 29 July 2019.

The Company has a policy to select the best available 
officers and staff for each relevant position in a non-
discriminatory manner based on merit.  

Notwithstanding this, the Board respects and values 
the benefits that diversity (e.g., gender, age, ethnicity, 
cultural background, disability and martial/family status 
etc.) brings in relation to expanding the Company’s 
perspective and thereby improving corporate 
performance, increasing Shareholder value and 
maximising the probability of achieving the Company’s 
objectives.  

The Board is committed to developing a diverse 
workplace where appointments or advancements are 
made on a fair and equitable basis.

1.5

A listed entity should: 

No

(a)  have and disclose a diversity policy 

(b)  through its board or a committee of 
the board set measurable objectives 
for achieving gender diversity in the 
composition of its board, senior executives 
and workforce generally; and

(c)  disclose in relation to each reporting 

period:

(i)  the measurable objectives set for that 
period to achieve gender diversity;

(ii)  the entity’s progress towards achieving 

those objectives; and

(iii)  either:

(A)  the respective proportions of men 
and women on the board, in senior 
executive positions and across 
the whole workforce (including 
how the entity has defined “senior 
executive” for these purposes); or

(B)  if the entity is a “relevant employer” 

under the Workplace Gender 
Equality Act, the entity’s most 
recent “Gender Equality Indicators”, 
as defined in and published under 
the Act.

(d)  disclose as at the end of each reporting 
period the measurable objectives for 
achieving gender diversity set by the board 
or a relevant committee of the board in 
accordance with the entity’s diversity policy 
and its progress towards achieving them, 
and either:

(i)  the respective proportions of men 
and women on the board, in senior 
executive positions and across the 
whole organisation (including how the 
entity has defined “senior executive” for 
these purposes); or

(ii)  if the entity is a “relevant employer” 

under the Workplace Gender Equality 
Act, the entity’s most recent “Gender 
Equality Indicators”, as defined in and 
published under that Act. 

1.6

A listed entity should:

(a)  have and disclose a process for periodically 

evaluating the performance of the board, 
its committees and individual directors; 
and 

(b)  disclose for each reporting period whether 
a performance evaluation was undertaken 
in the reporting period in accordance with 
that process. 

Yes

The Remuneration and Nomination Committee 
is responsible for the evaluation of the Board’s 
performance and its individual Directors. 

Jupiter has also adopted in its Board Charter a 
commitment to review its own performance at intervals 
considered appropriate by the Chairman.  The same 
performance review mechanism is also present in the 
Audit Committee and Remuneration and Nomination 
Committee Charters.

Jupiter will continue to disclose if and when it has 
conducted any performance evaluations.

a performance evaluation was undertaken 
in the reporting period in accordance with 
that process.

Yes

The Board is responsible for monitoring the 
performance of executive officers.  

The Board has established policies to ensure that 
Jupiter remunerates fairly and responsibly. The 
Company designed its remuneration policy to ensure 
that the level and composition of remuneration is 
competitive, reasonable and appropriate to attract 
and maintain Directors with the requisite skills and 
experience to guide the Company towards achieving 
its objectives.

Jupiter will continue to disclose if and when it has 
conducted any performance evaluations.

Jupiter will continue to disclose at the end of each 
reporting period the number of times the RN 
Committee met throughout the relevant period.

individual attendances of the members 
at those meetings; or

(b)  if it does not have a nomination 

committee, disclose that fact and the 
processes it employs to address board 
succession issues and to ensure that the 
board has the appropriate balance of skills, 
knowledge, experience, independence and 
diversity to enable it to discharge its duties 
and responsibilities effectively. 

2.2

A listed entity should have and disclose a board 
skills matrix setting out the mix of skills that 
the board currently has or is looking to achieve 
in its membership.

No

Jupiter does not currently have a skills or diversity 
matrix in relation to its Board members.  The Board 
considers that such a matrix is not necessary given the 
current state of operations. 

The RN Committee is presently responsible for ensuring 
the Directors have the appropriate mix of competencies 
to enable the Board to discharge its responsibilities 
effectively.

The Board may adopt such a matrix later as the 
Company’s operations evolve.

2.3

A listed entity should disclose: 

Yes

(a)  the names of the directors considered by 
the board to be independent directors;

(b)  if the director has an interest, position or 
relationship of the type described in Box 
2.3 but the board is of the opinion that is 
does not compromise the independence 
of the director, the nature of interest, 
position or relationship in question and 
an explanation of why the board is of that 
opinion; and

(c)  the length of service of each director.

2.4

A majority of the board of a listed entity should 
be independent directors.

No

The Board considers that Mr Paul Murray, Mr Andrew 
Bell and Mr Brian Gilbertson are independent Directors 
because they are free from any business or other 
relationship with the Company that could materially 
interfere with, or reasonably be perceived to materially 
interfere with, the independent exercise of their 
judgement as Directors.  

The Company appointed Mr Murray as a Director on 20 
August 2003, Mr Bell as a Director on 19 May 2008 and 
Mr Gilbertson as a Director on 22 June 2010.

A majority of the Board are not independent Directors. 
Three of the Board’s six Directors, being Mr Paul Murray, 
Mr Andrew Bell and Mr Gilbertson are considered 
independent.  

The Company does not consider Mr Yeongjin Heo 
independent because he is the managing director of 
POSCO Australia Pty Ltd, a significant shareholder of 
Jupiter. 

The Company does not consider Mr Priyank Thapliyal 
independent because Jupiter employs him in an 
executive capacity, as the Company’s Chief Executive 
Officer.

The Company does not consider Mr Hans Mende or Mr 
Brian Beem independent because of their association 
with AMCI Group LLC, a significant shareholder of 
Jupiter. 

The Company believes that the current structure of 
the Board is the most appropriate given the size and 
current operations of the Company.

2.5

The chair of the board of a listed entity should 
be an independent director and, in particular, 
should not be the same person as the CEO of 
the entity.

Yes

The Chairman, Mr Brian Gilbertson, is an independent 
Director.  

Mr Priyank Thapliyal is the Chief Executive Officer and is 
not the Chairman.

A listed entity should have a program for 
inducting new directors and for periodically 
reviewing whether there is a need for 
existing directors to undertake professional 
development to maintain the skills and 
knowledge needed to perform their role as 
directors effectively. 

Yes

Induction program

When a Director is appointed, they receive with 
their appointment letter a copy of the Company’s

Director to gain an understanding of the rights, duties, 
responsibilities and role of the Board, Board committees 
and the executive team.

The Company Secretary arranges for new Directors to 
undertake an induction program to enable them to 
gain an understanding of: 

 ƒ

 ƒ

 ƒ

the Company’s operations and the industry sectors in 
which it operates; 

the  Company’s  financial,  strategic,  operational  and 
risk management position; 

their rights, duties and responsibilities; and

To be bold in its industry area, act with integrity, be 
honest and respectful to our people, stakeholders and 
the environment.

Yes

The Board believes that the success of Jupiter has been, 
and will continue to be, enhanced by a strong ethical 
culture within the organisation. 

Jupiter has a Code of Conduct and Ethics (Code) which 
sets the standards that all Directors, officers, employees, 
consultants and contractors and all other people 
representing the Company are expected to comply with 
in relation to all commercial operations. 

The Code also outlines the procedure for reporting 
any breaches of the Code and the possible disciplinary 
action the Company may take in respect of any 
breaches.

In addition to their obligations under the Corporations 
Act 2001 (Cth) (Corporations Act) in relation to inside 
information, all Directors, employees and consultants 
have a duty of confidentiality to Jupiter in relation to 
confidential information they possess. 

In fulfilling their duties, each Director dealing with 
corporate governance matters may obtain independent 
professional advice at Jupiter’s expense after 
consultation with the Chairman. 

The Company ensures that all incumbent and new 
personnel have a copy of the Code. It is also available on 
the Company’s website.

Principle 5 – Make Timely and Balanced Disclosure

A listed entity should have and disclose 
a written policy for complying with its 
continuous disclosure obligations under listing 
rule 3.1.

Yes

Jupiter has adopted a Continuous Disclosure Policy.  

Jupiter is a “disclosing entity” pursuant to section 111AR 
of the Corporations Act and, as such, is required to 
comply with the continuous disclosure requirements 
of Chapter 3 of the Listing Rules and section 674 of the 
Corporations Act.

The Company is committed to observing its disclosure 
obligations under the Corporations Act and its 
obligations under the Listing Rules.   

The Company will post all announcements provided to 
ASX on its website. 

A copy of the Continuous Disclosure Policy is available 
on the Company’s website.

The Company Secretary, who reports to the Chairman, 
ensures that the board receives copies of all material

Under the Company’s Continuous Disclosure Policy, 
any written materials containing new price sensitive 
information to be used in investor presentations are 
lodged with ASX prior to the presentation commencing.

Yes

Yes

The Shareholder Communications Policy, which is 
available on the Company’s website, recognises the 
value of providing current and relevant information 
to its shareholders. The Chairman, Managing Director 
and Company Secretary have primary responsibility for 
communications with shareholders.

The Company is committed to the promotion of 
investor confidence through the below information:

 ƒ continuous disclosure of all material information

 ƒ periodic  disclosures  through  annual,  half-year  and 

quarterly reports; and

 ƒ briefings  with  the  domestic  and 

international 

investment community.

Jupiter supports Shareholder participation in 
general meetings and seeks to provide appropriate 
mechanisms for such participation, including by 
ensuring that meetings are held at convenient times 
and places to encourage Shareholder participation. 

In preparing for general meetings, Jupiter drafts the 
notice of meeting and related explanatory information 
so that they provide all of the information that is 
relevant to Shareholders in making decisions on 
matters to be voted on by them at the meeting.  This 
information is presented clearly and concisely so that it 
is easy to understand and not ambiguous. 

Jupiter uses general meetings as a tool to effectively 
communicate with Shareholders and allow 
Shareholders a reasonable opportunity to ask questions 
of the Board of Directors and to participate in the 
meeting. 

Mechanisms for encouraging and facilitating 
Shareholder participation are reviewed regularly 
to encourage the highest level of Shareholder 
participation. 

Shareholders are able to vote on resolutions via the 
Share Registry Platform, or by submitting proxy forms 
as outlined in the Notice of Meeting. 

Voting on all resolutions at meetings of shareholders 
are decided by a poll.

Jupiter considers that communicating with 
Shareholders by electronic means is an efficient way 
to distribute information in a timely and convenient 
manner. 

Jupiter provides new Shareholders with the option to 
receive communications from Jupiter electronically 
and encourages them to do so.  Existing Shareholders 
are also encouraged to request communications 
electronically. 

Jupiter will provide all Shareholders that have opted 
to receive communications electronically with 
notifications when it uploads an announcement 
or other communication (including annual reports 
and notice of meeting) to the ASX announcements 
platform.

Principle 7 – Recognise and manage risk

7.1

The board of a listed entity should: 

(a)  have a committee or committees to 

oversee risk, each of which: 

(i)  has at least three members, a majority 
of whom are independent directors; 
and 

(ii)  is chaired by an independent director,

and disclose: 

(iii)  the charter of the committee; 

(iv)  the members of the committee; and 

(v)  as at the end of each reporting period, 
the number of times the committee 
met throughout the period and the 
individual attendances of the members 
at those meetings; or 

(b)  if it does not have a risk committee or 

committees that satisfy (a) above, disclose 
that fact and the processes it employs for 
overseeing the entity’s risk management 
framework.

No

Jupiter does not have a separate risk management 
committee. 

The Board as a whole is broadly responsible for 
risk management, including the review of any risk 
management system or series of systems that may 
be implemented by management on a per-project 
basis.   The Audit Committee is responsible for the 
management of financial risk.

The Board considers that, given the Company’s current 
scope of operations, efficiencies or other benefits 
would not be gained by establishing a separate risk 
management committee at present.

As the Company’s operations evolve, the Board will 
reconsider the appropriateness of forming a separate 
risk management committee.

7.2

The board or a committee of the board should:

Yes

(a)  review the entity’s risk management 

framework at least annually to satisfy itself 
that it continues to be sound that the 
entity is operating with due regard to the 
risk appetite set by the board; and

(b)  disclose, in relation to each reporting 

period, whether such a review has taken 
place.

7.3

A listed entity should disclose: 

No

(a)  if it has an internal audit function, how 

the function is structured and what role it 
performs; or 

(b)  if it does not have an internal audit 

function, that fact and the processes it 
employs for evaluating and continually 
improving the effectiveness of its risk 
management and internal control 
processes.

The Board has responsibility for the monitoring of 
risk management and reviews the Company’s risk 
management framework on an annual basis to ensure 
that the framework continues to be effective.

The Company will continue to disclose the outcome 
of the annual risk management review in its annual 
reports.

Jupiter does not currently have an internal audit 
function.  This function is undertaken by relevant staff 
under the direction of the Board.

The Company has adopted internal control procedures, 
including the following:

 ƒ

the  Company  has  authorisation  limits  in  place  for 
expenditure and payments;  

 ƒ a  Director  or  senior  manager  must  not  approve  a 
payment to themselves or a related party, other than 
standard  salary/directors’  fees  in  accordance  with 
their Board approved remuneration;

 ƒ

 ƒ

the  Company  prepares  cash  flow  forecasts  which 
include  materiality 
thresholds,  and  which  are 
regularly reviewed; and

the  Company  regularly  reviews  its  other  financial 
materiality thresholds. 

The Board and senior management are charged with 
evaluating and considering improvements to the 
Company’s risk management and internal control 
processes on an ongoing basis.

The Board considers that an internal audit function 
is not currently necessary given the current size and 
scope of the Company’s operations. 

As the Company’s operations evolve, the Board will 
reconsider the appropriateness of adopting an internal 
audit function.

the Board.

(v)  as at the end of each reporting period, 
the number of times the committee 
met throughout the period and the 
individual attendances of the members 
at those meetings; or

(b)  if it does not have a remuneration 

committee, disclose that fact and the 
processes it employs for setting the 
level and composition of remuneration 
for directors and senior executives and 
ensuring that such remuneration is 
appropriate and not excessive.

8.2

A listed entity should separately disclose 
its policies and practices regarding the 
remuneration of non-executive directors and 
the remuneration of executive directors and 
other senior executives.

Yes

8.3

A listed entity which has an equity-based 
remuneration scheme should:

Yes

(a)  have a policy on whether participants 

are permitted to enter into transactions 
(whether through the use of derivatives or 
otherwise) which limit the economic risk of 
participating in the scheme; and 

(b)  disclose that policy or a summary of it.

The RN Committee Charter sets out the functions, 
operating mechanisms and responsibilities of the 
committee.

The RN Committee presently consists of Paul Murray, 
Andrew Bell and Brian Gilbertson. All members are both 
independent and non-executive Directors. Mr Murray 
acts as the chairman of the RN Committee.

Jupiter will continue to disclose at the end of each 
reporting period the number of times the committee 
met throughout the relevant period.

A copy of the RN Committee Charter is available on the 
Company’s website. 

Jupiter’s policies and practices regarding the 
remuneration of executive and non-executive Directors 
and other senior executives will be set out in the 
remuneration report contained in Jupiter’s annual 
report for each financial year.  

Furthermore, Jupiter’s remuneration policies and 
practices are subject to review by the RN Committee, as 
set out in the Company’s RN Committee Charter.

Jupiter’s Personnel Share Trading Policy states the 
requirements for all Directors, executives, employees, 
contractors and consultants of the Company dealing in 
the Company’s Securities.

The policy provides that Directors and senior executives 
must not at any time enter into a transaction (e.g. 
writing a call option) that operates or is intended 
to operate to limit the economic risk of holdings of 
unvested Jupiter securities under any equity-based 
remuneration schemes offered by the Company. 

A copy of the Personnel Share Trading Policy is available 
on the Company’s website.

Notes to the Consolidated 
Financial Statements

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2021

nOte 1: SUMMARY OF SigniFicAnt 
AccOUnting pOLicieS

These consolidated financial statements and notes represent 
those  of  Jupiter  Mines  Limited  (“Jupiter”)  and  its  Controlled 
Entities (the “Consolidated Group” or “Group”).

The  principal  activities  of  Jupiter  during  the  year  have  been 
investment in the operating Tshipi Borwa Manganese Mine in 
South Africa and the sale of manganese ore.

The separate financial statements of the parent entity, Jupiter 
Mines Limited, have not been presented within this financial 
report as permitted by the Corporations Act 2001.

The  financial  statements  were  authorised  and  issued  by  the 
Board of Directors on 27 May 2021.

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 
items 
measured  at  fair  value  in  a  foreign  currency  are  translated 
using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was 
determined.

initial  transaction.  Non-monetary 

(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.

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. All amounts in 
the financial report have been rounded to the nearest dollar. 
Tables may not cast in all instances due to rounding.

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

a.  principles of consolidation

The  Group  financial  statements  consolidate  those  of  the 
Parent Company and all its subsidiaries as of 28 February 2021. 
The parent controls a subsidiary if it is exposed, or has rights, 
to  variable  returns  from  its  involvement  with  the  subsidiary 
and  has  the  ability  to  affect  those  returns  through  its  power 
over  the  subsidiary.  All  subsidiaries  have  a  reporting  date  of  
28 February. A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 9 
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

The  Group  applies  the  acquisition  method  in  accounting  for 
business combinations.  The consideration transferred by the 
Group to obtain control of a subsidiary is calculated as the sum 
of the acquisition-date fair values of assets transferred, liabilities 
incurred, and the equity interests issued by the Group, which 
includes  the  fair  value  of  any  asset  or  liability  arising  from  a 
contingent consideration arrangement.  Acquisition costs are 
expensed as incurred.

The  Group  recognises 
identifiable  assets  acquired  and 
liabilities  assumed  in  a  business  combination  regardless 
of  whether  they  have  been  previously  recognised  in  the 
acquiree’s financial statements prior to the acquisition.  Assets 
acquired  and  liabilities  assumed  are  generally  measured  at 
their acquisition-date fair values.

Goodwill  is  stated  after  separate  recognition  of  identifiable 
intangible assets.  It is calculated as the excess of the sum of: 
(a)  fair  value  of  consideration  transferred,  (b)  the  recognised 
amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, and (c) 
acquisition-date fair value of any existing equity interest in the 
acquiree,  over  the  acquisition-date  fair  values  of  identifiable 
net  assets.    If  the  fair  values  of  identifiable  net  assets  exceed 
the  sum  calculated  above,  the  excess  amount  (i.e.  gain  on  a 
bargain purchase) is recognised in profit or loss immediately.  

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.

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  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  year  comprises 
income  tax  expense  (income)  and  deferred  tax 
current 
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 year as 
well as 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 year 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 years in which significant amounts of deferred tax assts 
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  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  Profit  or  Loss  and  Other 
Comprehensive  Income  during  the  financial  year  in  which 
they are incurred.

 Jupiter Mines Limited

 
 
 
 
 
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

Depreciation Rate

Leasehold improvements

Furniture & fittings

Plant & equipment:

      Motor vehicles

      Site equipment

20.00%

33.33%

12.50%

33.33%

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

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

Gains  and  losses  on  disposals  are  determined  by  comparing 
proceeds  with  the  carrying  amount.  These  gains  and  losses 
are  included  in  the  Statement  of  Profit  or  Loss  and  Other 
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 that 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 year when the 
new information becomes available.

f.  Financial instruments

Financial  assets  and  financial  liabilities  are  recognised  when 
the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the 
financial instrument.

Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights 
to  the  cash  flows  from  the  financial  asset  expire,  or  when 
the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards 
are  transferred.  A  financial  liability  is  derecognised  when  it  is 
extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expires.

Classification and initial measurement of financial assets

Financial assets are classified according to their business model 
and the characteristics of their contractual cash flows. Except 
for  those  trade  receivables  that  do  not  contain  a  significant 
financing  component  and  are  measured  at  the  transaction 
price  in  accordance  with  AASB  15,  all  financial  assets  are 
initially  measured  at  fair  value  adjusted  for  transaction  costs 
(where applicable).

Subsequent measurement of financial assets

For  the  purpose  of  subsequent  measurement,  financial 
assets, other than those designated and effective as hedging 
instruments, are classified into the following two categories: 

 ƒ Financial assets at amortised cost

 ƒ Equity instruments at fair value through other 
comprehensive income (“Equity FVTOCI”)

All  income  and  expenses  relating  to  financial  assets  that  are 
recognised in profit or loss are presented within finance costs, 
finance income or other financial items, except for impairment 
of trade receivables which is presented within other expenses.

Financial assets at amortised cost

Financial assets with contractual cash flows representing solely 
payments of principal and interest and held within a business 
model of ‘hold to collect’ contractual cash flows are accounted 
for at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The 
Group’s trade and most other receivables fall into this category 
of financial instruments as well as bonds that were previously 
classified as held-to-maturity under AASB 139. 

Equity instruments at fair value through other 
comprehensive income (“Equity FVTOCI”)

Investments  in  equity  instruments  that  are  not  held  for 
trading  are  eligible  for  an  irrevocable  election  at  inception 
to  be  measured  at  FVTOCI.  Under  this  category,  subsequent 
movements in fair value are recognised in other comprehensive 
income  and  are  never  reclassified  to  profit  or  loss.  Dividend 
income  is  taken  to  profit  or  loss  unless  the  dividend  clearly 
represents return of capital.

Trade and other receivables

The Group makes use of a simplified approach in accounting 
for trade and other receivables and records the loss allowance 
at the amount equal to the expected lifetime credit losses. In 
using  this  practical  expedient,  the  Group  uses  its  historical 
experience, 
forward-looking 
indicators 
information  to  calculate  the  expected  credit  losses  using  a 
provision  matrix.  The  Group  allows  1%  for  amounts  that  are 
30 to 60 days past due, 1.5% for amounts that are between 60 
and 90 days past due and writes off fully any amounts that are 
more than 90 days past due.

external 

and 

Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive 
income

The  Group  recognises  12  months  expected  credit  losses  for 
financial assets at FVTOCI. As most of these instruments have 
a high credit rating, the likelihood of default is deemed to be 
small.  However,  at  each  reporting  date  the  Group  assesses 
whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk 
of the instrument.

In  assessing  these  risks,  the  Group  relies  on  readily  available 
information  such  as  the  credit  ratings  issued  by  the  major 
credit rating agencies for the respective asset. The Group only 
holds  simple  financial  instruments  for  which  specific  credit 
ratings are usually available. In the unlikely event that there is 
no or only little information on factors influencing the ratings 
of  the  asset  available,  the  Group  would  aggregate  similar 
instruments  into  a  portfolio  to  assess  on  this  basis  whether 
there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

In addition, the Group considers other indicators such as adverse 
changes  in  business,  economic  or  financial  conditions  that 
could affect the borrower’s ability to meet its debt obligation or 
unexpected changes in the borrowers operating results.

Should  any  of  these  indicators  imply  a  significant  increase 
in  the  instrument’s  credit  risk,  the  Group  recognises  for  this 
instrument or class of instruments the lifetime expected credit 
losses.

Classification and measurement of financial liabilities

The  Group’s  financial  liabilities  include  only  trade  and  other 
payables.

Financial  liabilities  are  initially  measured  at  fair  value,  and, 
where  applicable,  adjusted  for  transaction  costs  unless  the 
Group  designated  a  financial  liability  at  fair  value  through 
profit or loss. 

Subsequently,  financial  liabilities  are  measured  at  amortised 
cost using the effective interest method. 

All  interest-related  charges  and,  if  applicable,  changes  in  an 
instrument’s  fair  value  that  are  reported  in  profit  or  loss  are 
included within finance costs or finance income.

g.  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  Profit  or  Loss  and 
Other 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  goodwill  and 
intangible assets with indefinite lives.

h.  employee Benefits

Provisions  are  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  wholly  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  high  quality  corporate 
bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected timing 
of cash flows.

i.  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.

j.  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.

k.  trade and Other Receivables

Trade  receivables  are  initially  measured  at  their  transaction 
price. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at 
amortised cost using the effective interest method.

The Group makes use of the simplified approach in accounting 
for trade and other receivables and records the loss allowance 
at the amount equal to the expected lifetime credit losses.

At each reporting date, the Branch recognises the change in 
lifetime expected credit losses in profit or loss as an impairment 
gain or loss.

l.  Revenue and Other income

AASB  15  Revenue  from  Contracts  with  Customers  outlines  a 
single comprehensive model of accounting for revenue arising 
from  contracts  with  customers.  The  core  principle  is  that  an 
entity recognises revenue based on a five-step model to reflect 
the transfer of goods or services, measured at the amount to 
which  the  Branch  expects  to  be  entitled  to  in  exchange  for 
those goods or services.

The application of the five-step model in AASB 15 requires the 
exercise of judgement, considering all facts and circumstances 
relevant to each contract - the relevant judgements have been 
disclosed  in  note  1(q).  The  standard  also  provides  guidance 
on the accounting treatment of costs attributable to fulfilling 
the contract, as well as the incremental costs of obtaining the 
contract.

In  terms  of  AASB  15,  the  Branch  identifies  each  separate 
performance  obligation  contained 
in  the  contract  and 
allocates a portion of the contract revenue to each performance 
obligation. Revenue is then only recognised on the satisfaction 
of  each  of  the  relevant  performance  obligations.  Revenue 
from contracts with customers is recognised when control is 
transferred to the customer.

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

Full details are provided at Note 2.

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

m.  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 Other Comprehensive Income in the period 
in which they are incurred.

n.  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 that 
are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are presented as 
operating  cash  flows  included  in  receipts  from  customers  or 
payments to suppliers.

o.  trade and Other payables

Trade and other payables are carried at cost and, due to their 
short term nature, 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.

p.  comparative Figures

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

q.  critical Accounting estimates and 

Judgements

and 

The  Directors  evaluate  estimates 
judgements 
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 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 that 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  Profit  or  Loss 
and Other Comprehensive Income. 

Key judgements – revenue from contracts with customers

The  Jupiter  Mines  Limited  (External  Profit  Company)  (“SA 
Branch”)  acted  as  an  agent,  as  opposed  to  a  principal,  for 
all  sales  contracts  entered  into  during  the  financial  year. 
In  determining  whether  the  SA  Branch  acted  as  an  agent, 
management  considered  elements  of  control  and  risks 
assumed  by  the  SA  Branch.  The  SA  Branch  earned  a  fixed 
percentage  marketing  fee  for  the  sales  contracts,  assumed 
limited  risks  (inventory,  pricing)  and  although  the  SA  Branch 
obtained  legal  title  of  the  goods  this  was  only  obtained 
momentarily  and  did  not  demonstrate  that  the  SA  Branch 
controlled  the  goods.  Based  on  these  factors,  the  Branch 
considered it was acting in an agency relationship.

The  revenue  and  associated  trade  receivables  and  trade 
payables balances are calculated based on management’s best 
estimate of the metal and moisture content of the ore shipped 
to customers. Extensive sampling and surveying is performed 
prior to shipment in an effort to ensure the accuracy of these 
estimations. Due to the inherent limitations of sampling and 
the method of transport, variances in the metal and moisture 
content  measured  on  arrival  at  the  discharge  port  may  be 
different from those estimated by management on the date 
of the sale. Variances in the metal and moisture content of the 
shipped ore on arrival at the discharge port will have an impact 
on the profitability of the SA Branch.

r.  non-current assets held for 

distribution and discontinued 
operations

The Group classifies non-current assets and disposal groups as 
held for distribution if their carrying amounts will be recovered 
principally  through  a  sale  transaction  rather  than  through 
continuing  use.  Non-current  assets  and  disposal  groups 
classified  as  held  for  distribution  are  measured  at  the  lower 
of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Costs 
to  sell  are  the  incremental  costs  directly  attributable  to  the 
disposal of an asset (disposal group), excluding finance costs 
and income tax expense.

The  criteria  for  held  for  distribution  classification  is  regarded 
as met only when the sale is highly probable and the asset or 
disposal  group  is  available  for  immediate  sale  in  its  present 
condition.  Actions  required  to  complete  the  sale  should 
indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the sale 
will  be  made  or  that  the  decision  to  sell  will  be  withdrawn. 
Management must be committed to the plan to sell the asset 
and the sale expected to be completed within one year from 
the date of the classification.

Assets and liabilities classified as held for distribution are presented separately as current items in the statement of financial position.

A disposal group qualifies as discontinued operation if it is a component of an entity that either has been disposed of, or is classified 
as held for sale, and:

 ƒ Represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations

 ƒ

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 a view to resale. 

Discontinued operations are excluded from the results of continuing operations and are presented as a single amount as profit or 
loss after tax from discontinued operations in the statement of profit or loss.

Additional disclosures are provided in note 31. All other notes to the financial statements include amounts for continuing operations, 
unless indicated otherwise.

New and amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations for current year

A  number  of  new  Standards,  amendment  of  Standards  and  interpretations  which  have  become  effective  for  the  year  ended  
28 February 2021 have been adopted and do not have a significant impact on the Group’s financial results or position.

New accounting standards not yet effective

There are no forthcoming standards and amendments that are expected to have a material impact on the group in the current or 
future reporting periods, or on foreseeable future transactions.

The “SA Branch” is registered in South Africa for the purpose of the sale and export of Jupiter’s share of Tshipi manganese ore. 

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers outlines a single comprehensive model of accounting for revenue arising from 
contracts with customers. The core principle is that an entity recognises revenue based on a five-step model to reflect the transfer of 
goods or services, measured at the amount to which the SA Branch expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

The  application  of  the  five-step  model  in  AASB  15  requires  the  exercise  of  judgement,  considering  all  facts  and  circumstances 
relevant  to  each  contract  -  the  relevant  judgements  have  been  disclosed  in  note  1.  The  standard  also  provides  guidance  on  the 
accounting treatment of costs attributable to fulfilling the contract, as well as the incremental costs of obtaining the contract. 

In terms of AASB 15, the SA Branch identifies each separate performance obligation contained in the contract and allocates a portion 
of the contract revenue to each performance obligation. Revenue is then only recognised on the satisfaction of each of the relevant 
performance obligations. Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control is transferred to the customer. 

Tshipi  joint  venture  records  the  sale  of  manganese  ore  as  revenue  and  Jupiter  records  its  share  of  the  Tshipi  profits  by  equity 
accounting.

Sale of Manganese Ore

Given the Branch only takes control of the goods momentarily before control passes to the customer as well as the limited risks 
which the Branch assumes the Branch is considered to be acting in an agency capacity.

The nature of the SA Branch’s contracts are to arrange for the goods (manganese ore) to be provided by another party (Tshipi) and 
therefore the SA Branch is acting in an agency capacity, facilitating the sale between Tshipi and the customer. Under the previous 
accounting standard, AASB 118, all sales contracts entered into, where the purchase price of the manganese ore was equal to the 
selling price, the SA Branch was also considered to have been acting in an agency capacity.

Marketing Fee Income

The SA Branch receives a fixed commission on each sale based on the FOB selling price. The amount and timing of revenue to be 
recognised from marketing fee income under AASB 15 was considered below against the five step model:

 ƒ There is a contract with Tshipi, for each parcel sold, which entitles the SA Branch to receive the commission. The contract has 

commercial substance and both parties are committed to performing their obligations; 

 ƒ The performance obligation for the SA Branch in respect to each sale is that the SA Branch needs to facilitate the sale between 

the customer and Tshipi;

 ƒ The transaction price can be determined as it is calculated as a fixed percentage of the FOB selling price; 

 ƒ There is only one performance obligation in the contract and therefore the whole transaction price has been allocated to this 

performance obligation; 

 ƒ Revenue is recognised when the performance obligation is satisfied. The performance obligation of the SA Branch is considered 
to be satisfied when control passes from Tshipi to the customer. Control passes to the customer when the ore passes over the 
rail of the vessel (bill of lading date), this is when the customer has the obligation to pay for the goods transferred and when risk 
and rewards of ownership are transferred to the customer. 

Marketing fee income is determined based on the final metal and moisture content at the discharge port. On the bill of lading 
date, the provisional marketing fee income is recognised based on the load port metal and moisture content which is considered 
to be the best estimate. Once the final metal and moisture content is determined on finalisation of the sales transaction, typically 
between 2 and 3 months later, the marketing fee income initially recognised is adjusted subsequently. At the reporting period, the 
fair value of the original marketing fee income and associated receivable is adjusted by reference to the best estimate of the actual 
metal and moisture content. The changes in fair value are recorded as an adjustment to marketing fee income. 

On the bill of lading date, there is no uncertainty regarding Jupiter’s entitlement to the marketing fee as their responsibilities under 
the marketing fee arrangement have been performed and they have an unconditional right to the marketing fee on this date. The 
marketing fee amount receivable will only be adjusted for the final metal and moisture content, as stated above. Jupiter invoices 
Tshipi for the marketing fee once the final metal and moisture content can be determined and the customer has paid Tshipi for 
the final invoice. The payment is typically three months after the marketing fee income was first recognised and the contract is 
therefore considered to be short term in nature.

Under AASB 15, the accounting for marketing fee income will remain unchanged in that marketing fee income will be recognised 
when control passes to the customer, which will continue to be the date of delivery when risks and rewards passed to the customer.

In accordance with the Group’s accounting policies and processes, the Group performs impairment testing annually at 28 February. 
The Board has considered in depth its Tshipi investment with regards to impairments indicators under AASB 136 and both internal 
and external sources of information, with specific regard to the ongoing economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Board 
does not believe any indicators exist and an independent valuation has not been commissioned for the 2021 financial year.

This is made up of a non-cancellable lease of 2 years however it can be subleased (with prior consent of Lessor), which expired on 
31 May 2020. The lease was subsequently extended to 30 November 2021. Amounts include rent, outgoings and cleaning with 4.5% 
annual rent review increase. It does not take into account reduced guarantees or returned deposits or incentives. Figures based 
on 9 months (1 March 2021 to 30 November 2021) which is the end of the lease. The expense recognised for the operating lease was 
$51,194 (2020: $53,177). The property lease is non-cancellable for six months, with rent payable monthly in advance.

Expenditure Commitments

In order to maintain current rights of tenure to mining tenements, the Company and Group are required to perform minimum 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 $547,156 (2020: $535,207) and exploration 
expenditure of $676,100 (2020: $676,100).

nOte 22: SegMent RepORting 

The Group operates in the mining industry. 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 their exploration and production interests. These are considered to 
be the Central Yilgarn Iron Exploration Project (Iron Ore), located in Australia, the producing Tshipi Mine (Manganese) located in 
South  Africa,  and  Jupiter’s  South  African  branch  which  carries  out  the  sale  of manganese  ore.  The  remaining  items  of  revenue, 
expenses, assets and liabilities relate to corporate operations. Any transactions between reportable segments have been offset for 
these purposes.

Segment information for the reporting period is as follows:

Financial Risk Management Policies

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

(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.

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 7.

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:

 ƒ preparing forward looking cash flow analysis in relation to its operational, investing and financing activities;

 ƒ monitoring undrawn credit facilities;

 ƒ obtaining funding from a variety of sources;

 ƒ maintaining a reputable credit profile;

 ƒ managing credit risk related to financial assets; 

 ƒ only investing surplus cash with major financial institutions; and 

 ƒ 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 6. The Group 
manages  liquidity  risk  by  monitoring  immediate  and  forecast  cash  requirements  and  ensuring  adequate  cash  reserves  are 
maintained.

The  tables  below  reflect  an  undiscounted  contractual maturity  analysis  for  financial  liabilities.  Cash  flows  realised  from  financial 
assets reflect management’s expectation as to the timing of realisation. Actual timing may therefore differ from that disclosed. The 
timing of cash flows presented in the table to settle financial liabilities reflects the earliest contractual settlement dates.

(c)  Market Risk

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 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:

Jupiter  operates  internationally  and  is  exposed  to  foreign  exchange  risk  arising  from  various  currency  exposures  primarily  with 
respect to the US 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 three different currencies as set out below:

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 once operational. However, management monitors current and projected commodity prices.

(d)  Net Fair Value

The net fair values of cash and cash equivalents and non-interest bearing monetary financial assets and liabilities approximate 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.

the following levels:

Level 1: quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: 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); and

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including: 
a  giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 28 February 2021 and of its performance for the year

Key audit matter 
Impairment on Investments accounted for using the 
equity method Note 1(b) and Note 14 
The Group recorded an investment accounted for under the 
equity method totalling $430,593,793 (2020: $437,601,406) at 
28 February 2021 in relation to its 49.9% ownership in Tshipi é 
Ntle Manganese Mining Proprietary Limited.  

The Group recognises this investment as a joint venture using 
the equity method in accordance with AASB 128 Investment in 
Associates and Joint Ventures, and is considered for 
impairment in the event of significant or prolong decline in 
value.  

Management assesses impairment indicators on an annual 
basis in accordance with AASB 136 Impairment of Assets.  

This area is a key audit matter due to the significant balance 
carried by the Group that management have assessed using 
estimates and judgements that required specific valuation 
expertise and analysis.  
Valuation and disclosure of disposal group held for 
distribution - Note 1(r) & Note 31 
In October 2020, the Group announced that the Director’s 
unanimously approved a demerger of its Central Yilgarn Iron 
Ore assets (“CYIP”) and subsequent initial public offering 
(“IPO”), subject to all statutory approvals. The demerger will 
create an ASX listed company, Juno Minerals Ltd.  

The associated assets and liabilities have been classified as a 
disposal group and recorded at the lower of its carrying value 
and estimated fair value less costs to distribute. Included 
within the disposal group’s carrying value is exploration and 
evaluation assets at 28 February 2021 of $12,716,021.  

This area is a key audit matter due to the significant balance 
carried by the Group that management have assessed using 
estimates and judgements to determine the fair value less 
costs to distribute. 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

Our procedures included, amongst others: 

  Evaluating the appropriateness of managements use of the 
equity method to account for the investment in Tshipi  é 
Ntle Manganese Mining Proprietary Limited in accordance 
with AASB 128;   

  Evaluating management’s assessment of internal and 
external impairment indicators detailed in AASB 136 
“Impairment of Assets”; and 

  Assessing the adequacy of related disclosures in Note 1(b) 

and Note 14.  

Our procedures included, amongst others: 

  Considering the appropriateness of the method applied by 
the Group to determine fair value less costs to distribute in 
accordance with the requirements of the accounting 
standards; 

  Procedures included obtaining the key valuation inputs, 

including the manganese price, ore reserves and critically 
assessing the inputs and assumptions;  

  Obtaining the management reconciliation of capitalised 

exploration and evaluation expenditure and agreeing to the 
general ledger; 

  Testing projects to statutory registers, exploration licenses 
and third party confirmations to determine whether a right 
of tenure existed; and 

  Assessing the adequacy of related disclosures in Note 1(r) 

and Note 31.  

Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon 
The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the 
Group’s annual report for the year ended 28 February 2021, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report 
thereon.  

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance 
conclusion thereon.  

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider 
whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or 
otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

Independent Auditor’s Report

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are 
required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.  

Responsibilities of the Directors for the financial report  
The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in 
accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the Directors 
determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material 
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.  

In preparing the financial report, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, 
disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the 
Directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.  

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report  
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material 
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance 
is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing 
Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are 
considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions 
of users taken on the basis of this financial report.  

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and Assurance 
Standards Board website at: https://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilites/ar1_2020.pdf. This description forms part of 
our auditor’s report. 

Report on the remuneration report 

Opinion on the remuneration report 
We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 24 to 28 of the Directors’ report for the year ended 28 
February 2021.  

In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Jupiter Mines Limited, for the year ended 28 February 2021 complies with 
section 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 section 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.
