Chairman’s 
Statement

Dear Shareholder,

IntroductIon

I  am  pleased  to  introduce  Kibo’s  2013  Annual  Report 
which  records  significant  progress  in  our  strategy  of 
moving Kibo (the “Company”) from a junior explorer to a 
mineral  development  company.  This  progress  is  seen  in 
the  milestones  we  have  reached  in  relation  to  both  the 
Rukwa Coal to Power Project (“RCPP”) and the Imweru gold 
project. 

On the RCPP, during the reporting period, we have acquired 
support from both the Tanzanian Government and major 
global energy producers for the development of this much 
needed  power  generating  capacity  in  Tanzania  which 
will  help  to  address  both  the  country’s  current  power 
shortages and projected increased demand. The inclusion 
of the project in the Tanzanian National Strategic Energy 
Plan and the strengthening of our project team will allow 
us  to  develop  rapidly  the  planned  Rukwa  Development 
Programme.  I would like to welcome Roy Adair and Casper 
Van Wyk  as  key  members  of  this  team,  who  collectively 
bring  extensive  executive  leadership,  corporate  finance 
and  project  management  skills,  and  a  successful  track 
record of achievement in the energy and natural resource 
sectors.

We  also  announced  the  engagement  of  Standard  Bank 
as corporate finance advisor to the project with the task 
of  completing  a  financial  model  and  project  financing 
strategy for the development. I believe that the support of 
Africa’s largest bank with a successful record in Tanzania 
of  advising  on  and  structuring  finance  on  public  private 
partnerships across a range of business sectors is a strong 
endorsement of the RCPP.

In  addition  to  the  RCPP,  your  Company  made  steady 
progress  across  its  other  commodity  streams,  notably  in 
gold  and  base  metals.  In  regard  to  gold,  we  were  able  to 
take  advantage  of  a  distressed  asset  disposal  by  one  of 

our competitors to acquire a high quality gold exploration 
portfolio  in  northern  Tanzania,  significantly  improving 
the quality of our gold licence holdings in this region. The 
portfolio  included  brownfields  projects  with  pre-defined 
resources  at  Imweru  and  Lubando  where  Kibo  holds  a 
90%  interest,  as  well  as  earlier  stage  projects  with  some 
well-defined  drill  ready  gold  targets  from  exploration  by 
previous  operators.  A  drill  programme  was  carried  out 
towards the end of 2013 at the Imweru property with the 
objective of increasing the quality and quantity of the pre-
existing  NI  43-101  resource  estimate  of  629,600  oz.  (19.5 
million tonnes at 1.1 gram per tonne). 

The  eastern  part  of  the  pre-existing  NI  43-101  Imweru 
resource  was  re-stated  to  a  lower  value  as  it  partly  falls 
within  a  licence  no  longer  part  of  the  Imweru  project 
block. However, the net effect of the increase in estimated 
resource  over  the  recently  drilled  central  zone  of  the 
resource is 550,000 oz. (~15 million tonnes @ 1.14 grams 
per tonne) of which 495,000 oz, or 90% is attributable to 
Kibo.  Taken  together  with  the  estimated  gold  resource 
at  Lubando    of  160,000  oz.  (~  2.59  million  tonnes  at  2 
g/t),  of  which  144,000  oz  or  90%  is  attributable  to  Kibo. 
Kibo’s combined gold resource estimate for its projects in 
the  Geita  Region  is  just  over  700,000  (630,000  oz  or  90% 
of this is attributable to Kibo). It is encouraging that our 
independent  technical  consultant,  Tetra  Tech  EBA,  has 
acknowledged  in  its  report  the  potential  to  materially 
increase  the  resource  by  further  drilling  at  Imweru  and 
on a number of other proximal targets within the project 
region that remain to be tested.

On the base metal front, we implemented a comprehensive 
field  exploration  programme  at  our  Haneti  nickel-PGM 
project  during  2013,  funded  by  Brazilian  multi-national 
Votorantim Metaís Participações Ltda (“Votorantim”) under 
the terms of a joint venture. Subsequent to the withdrawal 
of  Votorantim  from  the  joint  venture  in  December  2013 
following  a  review  of  their  southern  African  operations, 
Kibo has now re-acquired a 100% interest in Haneti with 

 KiBO Mining PLC AnnuAL RePORt And ACCOunts 2013         iv              

our  CEO  Louis  Coetzee  and  the  management  team  for 
persisting  in  the  challenging  climate  for  our  sector  to 
take  Kibo  forward  from  exploration  to  development.  I 
also  wish  to  thank  my  fellow  board  members  for  their 
valuable insights, our advisors for their on-going guidance 
and  the Tanzanian  Government  for  their  support  of  our 
development  plans.  We  hope  to  repay  this  support  with 
the completion of the RCPP, a much needed energy project 
development which will substantially benefit the country 
and in particular local communities in southern Tanzania. 
Finally, I would like to acknowledge the continued support 
of our shareholders while we work to realise the inherent 
value across all our projects.

the benefit of a field season’s exploration data acquired at 
no cost to the Company.  

On  the  Corporate  side,  we  implemented  a  capital  re-
organisation  during  the  early  part  of  2013  which  was 
approved  by  shareholders  at  an  EGM  on  22  March  2013. 
During the period, three directors, Des Burke, Cecil Bond 
and  Bernard  Poznanski  also  retired  to  pursue  other 
interests and I wish to thank them for their contribution 
to  the  development  of  the  Company  to  date  and  wish 
them  well  for  the  future.  I  would  also  like  to  welcome 
the  recent  appointment  of  Andreas  Lianos  to  the  board 
effective  from  1  March  2014.  Andreas  is  an  experienced 
chartered accountant and corporate financier whose skills 
will be most valuable to the Company as it proceeds with 
its project development plans.

During  the  audit  and  in  finalisation  of  the  Annual 
Report  the  auditors  drew  the  board’s  attention  to  the 
requirements  of  IAS36  of  the  International  Financial 
Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) which requires that the board 
undertakes a regular review, at least annually, of the value 
of the assets as disclosed in the Financial Statements so as 
to disclose all assets at their fair value taking the current 
state  of  affairs  of  the  world  economy  and  the  stage  of 
development  of  the  various  projects  into  account.  This 
has required that certain assets be impaired to the extent 
necessary. The major adjustments were made against the 
Company’s  Rukwa  coal  and  Pinewood  uranium  assets. 
Adoption of this policy will require an annual review and 
adjustment  as  to  the  value  of  assets  as  and  when  new 
information comes to hand or circumstances surrounding 
the assets change.

In  summary,  our  capital  re-organisation,  board  changes 
and  new  appointments  for  RCPP  implemented  during 
2013  and  early  2014  give  us  the  appropriate  corporate 
structure  to  face  the  challenges  ahead.  I  am  confident 
that these changes will enhance our ability to deliver on 
the  RCPP  in  particular.  It  only  remains  for  me  to  thank

Review of 
Activities

rukwa coal to Power Project

The Rukwa Coal to Power project (RCPP) is the Company’s 
flagship  project  and  is  based  on  the  twin  objective  of 
developing  a  coal  mine  and  an  associated  200-300  MW 
thermal power plant in southern Tanzania. The proposed 
development  is  based  on  the  Company’s  principal  asset, 
the  Rukwa  coal  deposit,  a  JORC-compliant  109  Mt  coal 
resource located 70 kilometres north of the regional town 
of Mbeya in a region which is seeing significant Tanzanian 
Government championed energy developments in recent 
years.    The  economic  case  for  the  RCPP  is  compelling 
based  on  projected  Tanznian  growth  rates  of  6-7%  over 
the next few years but constrained by the critical shortage 
of electric power.  Tanzania’s current generating capacity 
is  in  the  region  of  700-800  MW  per  day  but  demand  is 
expected to grow to 2,000 MW by 2020. 

The Company has a 100% beneficial interest in the deposit 
which was discovered and delineated by current members 
of  Kibo’s  board  and  management  team  in  the  2008-2011 
period. Geologically, it is located within Karoo Age rocks of 
the Songwe Basin and comprises seven coal seams striking 
northwest  and  dipping  at  30  degrees  northeast.  Seam 
thicknesses  vary  between  0.5-5  metres  and  have  been 
drilled  in  detail  over  a  strike  length  of  9  kilometres  and 
a depth of up to 300 metres The prospective stratigraphy 
at Rukwa continues to the northwest and southeast and 
Kibo  is  confident  that  it  can  significantly  increase  the 
current resource by additional drilling.

Kibo  has  made  consistent  progress  through  out  2013  in 
its endeavour to win financial, government and other key 
stakeholder support for RCPP in addition to implementing 
changes  at  board  and  management  level  to  enable  and 
realise  its  strategy  for  the  development.  This  began  in 
March with the announcement of the inclusion of the RCPP 
in the Tanzanian Government’s National Energy Strategy 
and its stated commitment to support development of the 
infrastructure in southern Tanzania to enable the project 
to proceed.  In July the Company announced the signing of 
an MOU  with Korean  state owned multi-national energy 
developer  EWP  as  a  basis  to  pursue  negotiations  on  the 
terms  of  a  potential  joint  venture.  Since  then  interest 
from a number of other large energy development focused 
global investors has been forthcoming and the Company 
has  opened  negotiation  fronts  with  a  number  of  these 

interested  parties.  In  order  to  maximise  the  success  of 
these negotiations and implement a project development 
plan,  Kibo  announced  in  October  the  formation  of  the 
Rukwa  Executive  Management  Team  (“REMT”)  which 
included  newly  recruited  experienced  operational  and 
financial appointees Casper Van Wck and Roy Adair. Both 
Mr. Adair and Mr.Van Wyk bring the necessary executive 
leadership,  project  management  and  corporate  finance 
skills in global energy development required to take RCPP 
through the feasibility stages through to construction and 
commissioning.  Coinciding  with  the  appointment  of  the 
REMT in October, Kibo also announced the appointment of 
Standard Bank to develop a financial model and financing 
strategy for the project where it will have first option on 
being lead arranger for debt financing.

Since the appointment of the REMT and Standard Bank in 
October,  progress  continues  on  the  announced  bankable 
feasibility  study  for  the  coal  mine  and  pre-feasibility 
study  for  the  thermal  power  station.  A  number  of  large 
global  energy  investors  are  currently  conducting  due 
diligence  on  the  coal  project  and  advanced  negotiations 
are  underway  with  some  of  these  on  the  nature  of  their 
potential participation and investment in the project.

lake VIctorIa Project

During  2013  Kibo  continued  to  evaluate,  rationalise  and 
consolidate its large ground holding in what is Tanzania’s 
premier gold mining area, the Lake Victoria Goldfield. The 
objective was to consolidate a select number medium to 
large tenement blocks in priority exploration areas close 
to  existing  gold  mining  infrastructure  where  possible, 
which  can  be  explored  together  more  effectively  from 
both  a  technical  and  cost  point  of  view.  This  Company 
announced  this  rationalisation  plan  in  June  2013  and 
it  continues  in  tandem  with  the  turnover  of  licence 
renewals,  applications  and  offers  under  the  Tanzanian 
mineral  licensing  system.  A  significant  development 
forming  part  of  this  tenement  management  strategy 
was  the  opportunistic  acquisition  of  a  large  tenement 
portfolio (“Reef Mining package”) from a distressed asset 
sale in August whereby the Company acquired 1,976 km2 
of mineral rights. This portfolio included  two brownfield 
gold projects,  Lubando and Imweru,  with reported  NI 43-
101 defined resource estimates of 629,600 oz. (17,649,900 
tonnes at 1.11 g/t, 0.5 g/t cut-off) and 168,300 oz. (2,593,710 
at 2 g/t, 0.5 g/y cut-off) respectively.

Following the acquisition of the Reef Mining package, the 
Company undertook a first phase drilling programme at the 
Imweru project in October with the objective of increasing 
the  629,600  oz.  resource. A  3,270  metre  drill  programme 
was  completed  over  the    Imweru  Central  Mineralised 
Zone  (“ICMZ”)  which  together  with  the  Imweru  Eastern 
Mineralised  Zone  (IEMZ)  form  two  zones  making  up  the 
published  resource.  These  two  zones  form  part  of  a  10 
kilometre east-west striking gold mineralised zone within 
mafic  to  intermediate  metavolcanic  and  meta-  intrusive 
rocks  that  had  been  identified  from  surface  exploration 
and drilling by the previous operators of the project. The 

results  from  drilling  at  the  ICMZ  were  integrated  with 
the historical drill results by the Company’s independent 
consultant, Tetra Tech EBA to produce an updated resource 
estimate for Imweru. 

This resource estimate was announced post the reporting 
period (February 2014) and shows a 39% increase in total 
estimated combined  Indicated and Inferred gold resource 
ounces  to  426,000  oz  (  12.3  million  tonnes  at  1.08  g/t, 
0.4  g/t  cut-off)  over  the  previous  estimate  for  the  ICMZ 
.  Approximately  24%  of  this  or  103,000  oz  (2.7  million 
tonnes at 1.17 g/t) is categorised in the  higher confidence 
Indicated category, with the remaining 76% or  323,000 oz. 
(9.6 million tonnes at 1.05 g/t) is in the Inferred category. 
At the IEMZ where no drilling was undertaken during the 
recent campaign a re-statement of the previous resource 
by Tetra Tech  required a re-adjusted downwards to 124,500 
oz  (2,653,000  tonnes  at  1.45  g/t).  This  re-adjustment 
was  due  to  changes  in  the  composition  of  the    Imweru 
tenement  portfolio  following  the  previous  resource 
estimate but before  Kibo’s acquisition of the project.

The  total  revised  estimated  Indicated  and  Inferred  gold 
resource at Imweru now stands at 550,000 oz. (15.0 million 
tonnes at 1.14 g/t, 0.4 g/t cut-off). The results of the 2013 
drill  programme  at  Imweru  has  also  led  to  an  Improved 
understanding  of  the  shear  hosted  gold  mineralisation 
at  Imweru  and  the    significant  potential  to  increase  the 
quantity  and  quality  of  the  resource  by  further  drilling.

Busolwa  projects  that  comprise  similar  gold  prospective 
geology to Imweru and are optimally located to the east 
and west of Anglogold Ashanti’s world class Geita Mines. 
All  these  projects  have  already  received  early  stage 
exploration work by the previous operator and have some 

well defined drill targets resolved. These areas also include 
the      Mhangu  project  over  which  Kibo  conducted  early 
stage exploration during 2011 and 2012 that successfully 
produced  trenching  and  drill  targets  that  also  remain  to 
be tested.

Imweru Resource 3D Model of Gold Mineralised Zones

The  Company  plans  to  continue  with  its  exploration 
programmes  at  Haneti  during  2014  having  now  at  its 
disposal  a  much  larger  exploration  database  from  the 
2013 work acquired at no cost, and still retaining 100% of 
the  project.  Two  priority  targets  at  Mwaka  and  Mihanza 
hill  are  scheduled  for  the  first  drill  programme  on  the 
project during 2014. These targets have been established 
principally  on  the  results  of  ground  electromagnetic 
surveys carried out during 2012 and more recent mapping 
and  smpling  during  2013.  Currently  (April  2014),  the 
Company  is  commissioning  an  independent  technical 
review  focused  particularly  on  detailed  analyses  of  the 
large multi-element geochemical database that covers the 
central nickel-PGM prospective ultramafic belt.

HanetI Project

In  December  2012,  Kibo  announced  the  signing  of  a 
joint  venture  with  Brazilian  industrial  conglomerate, 
Votorantim to explore the Haneti project. Under the terms 
of the joint venture, Votorantim had an option to vest 50% 
interest  in  the  project  following  exploration  expenditure 
of  £2.7  million  over  a  three  year  period  of  which 
£500,000 was required before the end of 2013.  Following 
expenditure  of  this  first  tranche  of  funding  during  2013 
Votorantim elected to withdraw from the joint venture in 
December  2013  as  a  result  of  a  review  of  their  southern 
African operations. Kibo has now re-acquired a full 100% 
interest in the project.

The £500,000 joint venture expenditure during 2013 at no 
cost to Kibo has advanced the Company’s understanding 
of  the  nickel-PGM  and  gold  potential  of  the  project, 
generated  new  targets  for  follow  up  and  provided  for 
regional  field  reconnaissance  that  will  allow  the  large 
ground  (approx  6,000  km2)  holding  be  rationalised  in 
order  to  focus  exploration  on  priority  licence  areas. The 
principal target remains nickel-PGM style mineralisation 
associated  with  the  70  to  80  km  long  belt  of  mafic  and 
ultramafic rocks in the east of the project. The potential 
for the discovery of orogenic (vein-shear hosted) style gold 
mineralisation  along  a  zone  close  to  the  southwestern 
margin  of  the  project  block  is  supported  by  the  results 
of  the  regional  mapping.  The  identification  and  sample 
results  from  lithium  mineral  bearing  pegmatite  dykes 
along this zone also open up the potential for the discovery 
of economic pegmatite hosted lithium-niobium-tantalum 
mineralisation on the project.

Morogoro and PInewood Projects

Field exploration was suspended on these projects during 
2013,  as  Kibo  prioritised  resources  towards  the    Rukwa, 
Haneti  and  Lake  Victoria  projects.  Both  projects  remain 
integral  to  the  Company’s  multi-commodity  exploration 
strategy.    Morogoro  provides  exposure  to  a  new  gold 
exploration  region  in  central  Tanzania  away  from  the 
traditional  gold  producing  areas  and  Pinewood  provides 
a  footprint  in  southern  Tanzania  for  uranium  and  coal 
where  the Tanzanian  government  has  prioritised  energy 
development  projects  and  which  has  seen  significant 
investment and discovery success in both commodities in 
recent years.

Morogoro Project

Morogoro  is  divided  geographically  in  to  two    tenement 
block areas, Morogoro North and Morogoro South, located  
north  and  south  of  the  town  of  Morogoro  respectively. 
Both  blocks  cover  high  grade  metamorphic  complexes 
which while not traditionally considered gold prospective 
have seen gold discovery success in the last 5 years most 

notably  the  Handeni  (Magambazi)  deposit  by  Canadian 
company, Canaco Resources Ltd (now East Africa Metals)  
During  2012  Kibo  carried  out  extensive  soil,  stream  and 
reconnaissance  mapping  surveys  over  priority  licences 
within  the  projects  and  has  successfully  outlined  gold 
anomalous  areas  for  follow  up  exploration  once  it 
resumes work in the region. The most significant of these 
are  associated  with  a  north-south  trending  thrust  fault 
zone (Ruvu Nappe) at Morogoro South where a coherent 
soil  geochemical  anomaly  with  values  up  to  550  parts 
per  billion  provides  an  immediate  trenching  and  drilling 
target.  Exploration  at  Morogoro  North  during  2012  and 
early  2013  (prior  to  suspension  of  field  programmes) 
comprised  regional  stream  sediment  sampling  which 
produced  a  number  of  anomalies  that  require  further 
investigation. The Company announced promising results 
from stream sediment sampling over mineral licences in 
the  northern  part  of  Morogoro  North  in  September  2013 
where values >20 parts per billion and up to 108 parts per 
billion  define  a  number  of  sub-areas  within  Prospecting 
Licences 6249/09, 6250/09 and 7497/12.

No  field  exploration  was  carried  out  on  the    project 
during  2013    is  being  currently  retained  on  a  care  and 
maintenance basis pending an improvement in the global 
uranium market and sourcing of a suitable joint venture 
partner  to  share  the  cost  of  initial  airborne  geophysical 
surveys.

PInewood Project 

The  Pinewood  project  encompasses 
licences  and 
applications with a total area of 8,500 km2 spread across 
three geographic blocks, Mbeya, Songea and Songea East in 
southern Tanzania. During 2013 as part of the Company’s 
tenement  rationalisation  plan  it  relinquished  a  number 
of  tenements  deemed  less  prospective  for  uranium  and 
coal  while  retaining  those  tenements  where  geological 
appraisal  and  a  review  of  regional  geophysical  surveys 
indicated most prospectivity.   The geology of this region 
is  quite  diverse  and  ranges  from  Precambrian  basement 
to Quaternary sedimentary and volcanic rocks.  The late 
Carboniferous  to  Jurassic  Karoo  sequences  are  the  most 
important in relation to coal and uranium exploration as 
they  host  significant  coal  deposits  throughout  Southern 
Africa and are also considered prospective for ‘Roll-Front’ 
style  uranium  deposits.  Karoo  Age  sequences  outcrop 
to  variable  extents  on  most  of  the  tenements  but  it  is 
postulated that they may be preserved to a much greater 
extent  under  Mezozoic  and  Caenozoic  sediments  and 
volcanic ash sequences.

 titaniferous

Andrew  is  a  chartered  accountant  (CA  (SA)),  certified  management  accountant  (ACMA),  certified  internal  auditor 
(CIA)  and  JSE  qualified  executive  who  started  his  professional  career  in  1989  with  Grant  Thornton  International. 
Andrew entered the corporate finance industry in 1994 by joining Deloitte & Touche Corporate Finance. In 1996 he 
joined  Smith  Borkum  Hare/Merrill  Lynch  Corporate  Finance,  and  was  part  of  the  team  that  founded  Labyrinth

Review of Business Developments 

As set out in the Chairman’s Report and review of activities, as well as continuing with its exploration program, the 
Company significantly decreased its exploration ground holdings in Tanzania during the period. 
Rukwa 

The Company has been engaged in ongoing discussions with the Tanzanian Government and potential development 
partners regarding the development of a mouth-of-mine coal thermal power plant (“Rukwa Coal to Power Project”). 
Encouraging progress has been made during the first half of 2013 with two significant developments announced in 
March and April respectively:  

-

-

The  strong  expression  of  support  for  the  project  by  the  Tanzanian  Government  and  its  inclusion  as  a 
strategic component of the country’s national energy strategy; and 
The  disclosure  of  the  letter  of  intent  from  Korean  Government  owned  multi-national  power  company, 
Korean East-West Power Co. Ltd (“EWP”) to participate in the project and commencement of negotiations 
towards a formal joint venture agreement  

These  developments  have  confirmed  the  Company’s  confidence  in  the  imperative  of  Rukwa  as  a  key  part  of  the 
regional  energy  strategy,  and  have  also  enhanced  its  ability  to  attract  the  investment  required  for  the  continued 
pursuit  of  the  Tanzanian  Government’s  national  strategy  and  the  required  follow-on  technical  evaluation  of  the 
Rukwa Project. This  will consist of a scoping study for  which appropriately experienced consultants are currently 
under consideration.  
Imweru 

The  Company  completed  the  Imweru  Drill  programme  in  the  Lake  Victoria  Region,  Tanzania.  The  planning  and 
mobilization of a two phase exploration drilling programme at Imweru started on 14 October 2013, with drilling on 
Phase 1 commencing on 1 November 2013 and finishing on 27 November 2013. The programme was completed 15 
days ahead of schedule, within budget and with a 100% safety record over the period of operations. 

The results of the drill program were incorporated in to a revised JORC-compliant resource estimate for Imweru by 
 February 2014. The report stated a revised estimate 
independent consultants Tetratech EBA  and published on 24
of  15 million tonnes @ 1.14 g/t, 0.4 g/t cut-off or 550,000 oz. being combined Indicated and Inferred resources.

discovery  of  economically  recoverable  reserves,  the  achievement  of  profitable  operations,  and  the  ability  of  the 
Company  to  raise  additional  financing,  if  necessary,  or  alternatively  upon  the  Company’s  ability  to  dispose  of  its 
interests  on  an  advantageous  basis.  Changes  in  market  conditions  could  require  material  write  downs  of  the 
carrying value of the Group’s assets.  
Financial instrument risk 

The Company and Group are exposed to risks arising from financial instruments  held. These are discussed in Note 
20. 
Strategic risk 

Significant and increasing competition exists for mineral acquisition opportunities throughout the world. As a result 
of this competition, the Group may be unable to acquire rights to exploit additional attractive mining properties on 
terms  it  considers  acceptable.  Accordingly,  there  can  be  no  assurance  that  the  Group  will  acquire  any  interest  in 
additional  operations  that  would  yield  reserves  or  result  in  commercial  mining  operations.  The  Group  expects  to 
undertake  sufficient  due  diligence  where  warranted  to  help  ensure  opportunities  are  subjected  to  proper 
evaluation. 
Commercial risk 

The  mining  industry  is  competitive  and  there  is  no  assurance  that,  even  if  commercial  quantities  of  minerals  are 
discovered, a profitable market will exist for the sale of such minerals. There can be no assurance that the quality of 
the  minerals  will  be  such  that  the  Group’s  properties  can  be  mined  at  a  profit.  Factors  beyond  the  control  of  the 
Group may affect the marketability of any minerals discovered. Mineral prices are subject to volatile price changes 
from a variety of factors including international economic and political trends, expectations of inflation, global and 
regional  demand,  currency  exchange  fluctuations,  interest  rates  and  global  or  regional  consumption  patterns, 
speculative  activities  and  increased  production  due  to  improved  mining  and  production  methods.  Ultimately,  the 
Group expects that prior to a development decision; a project could be the subject of a feasibility analysis to ensure 
there exists an appropriate level of confidence in its economic viability.  
Funding risk 

In  the  past  the  Group  has  raised  funds  via  equity  contributions  from  new  and  existing  shareholders,  thereby 
ensuring  the  Group  remains  a  going  concern  until  such  time  that  revenues  are  earned  through  the  sale  or 
development  and  mining  of  a  mineral  deposit.  There  can  be  no  assurance  that  such  funds  will  continue  to  be 
available on reasonable terms, or at all in future.  The Directors regularly review cash flow requirements to ensure 
the Group can meet financial obligations as and when they fall due.  
Operational risk 

Mining operations are subject to hazards normally encountered in exploration, development and production. These 
include  unexpected  geological  formations,  rock  falls,  flooding,  dam  wall  failure  and  other  incidents  or  conditions 
which  could  result  in  damage  to  plant  or  equipment  or  the  environment  and  which  could  impact  any  future 
production throughout. Although it is intended to take adequate precautions to minimise risk, there is a possibility 
of  a  material  adverse  impact  on  the  Group’s  operations  and  its  financial  results.  The  Group  will  develop  and 
maintain policies appropriate to the stage of development of its various projects.  
Staffing and Key Personnel Risks 

Recruiting and retaining qualified personnel is critical to the Group’s success. The number of persons skilled in the 
acquisition,  exploration  and  development  of  mining  properties  is  limited  and  competition  for  such  persons  is 
intense. While the Group has good relations with its employees, these relations may be impacted by changes in the 
scheme of labour relations which may be introduced by the relevant governmental authorities. Adverse changes in 
such  legislation  may  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  the  Group's  business,  results  of  operations  and  financial 
condition.  Staff  are  encouraged  to  discuss  with  management,  matters  of  interest  to  the  employees  and  subjects 
affecting day-to-day operations of the Group.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31 DECEMBER 2013 

KIBO MINING PLC 
DIRECTORS’ REPORT 

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31 DECEMBER 2013 

Speculative Nature of Mineral Exploration and Development 

Development  of  the  Group’s  mineral  exploration  properties  is,  amongst  others,  contingent  upon  obtaining 
satisfactory  exploration  results  and  securing  additional  adequate  funding.  Mineral  exploration  and  development 
involves  substantial  expenses  and  a  high  degree  of  risk,  which  even  a  combination  of  experience,  knowledge  and 
careful evaluation may not be able to adequately mitigate. The degree of risk reduces substantially when a Group’s 
properties move from the exploration phase to the development phase.  

The  discovery  of  mineral  deposits  is  dependent  upon  a  number  of  factors  including  the  technical  skill  of  the 
exploration personnel involved.  The commercial viability of a mineral deposit, once discovered,  is also dependent 
upon  a  number  of  factors,  including  the  size,  grade  and  proximity  to  infrastructure,  metal  prices  and  government 
regulations, including regulations relating to royalties,  allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals, 
and  environmental  protection.  In  addition,  several  years  can  elapse  from  the  initial  phase  of  drilling  until 
commercial operations are commenced. 
Political Stability 

The Group is conducting its activities in Tanzania.  The Directors believe that the Government of Tanzania supports 
the development of natural resources by foreign investors and actively monitor the situation.  However, there is no 
assurance that future political and economic conditions in  Tanzania will not result in the Government of Tanzania 
adopting  different  policies  regarding  foreign  development  and  ownership  of  mineral  resources.    Any  changes  in 
policy  affecting  ownership  of  assets,  taxation,  rates  of  exchange,  environmental  protection,  labour  relations, 
repatriation of income and return of capital, may affect the Group’s ability to develop the projects. 
Uninsurable Risks 

The Group may become subject to liability for accidents, pollution and other hazards against which it cannot insure 
or  against  which  it  may  elect  not  to  insure  because  of  prohibitive  premium  costs  or  for  other  reasons,  such  as 
amounts which exceed policy limits. 
Results and Dividends  

The result for the year after providing for depreciation, impairments and taxation amounted to a loss of £15,583,337 
(15 months ended 31 December 2012: loss £4,483,079). 
Post Balance Sheet Events 

Kibo’s Board of Directors approved the appointment of Mr. Andreas Lianos (“Andrew”) as the Chief Financial Officer 
(Executive Director) of the Company. The appointment is effective from 1 March 2014 onward. 

There  has  been  no  other  material  post  balance  sheet  events  other  than  those  stated  in  Note  21  to  the  financial 
statements.

During the period, the Group made no charitable or political contributions (2012: £ nil). 
Going Concern 

The Directors have reviewed budgets, projected cash flows and other relevant information, and on the basis of this 
review,  are  confident  that  the  Company  and  the  Group  will  have  adequate  financial  resources  to  continue  in 
operational existence for the foreseeable future. Additionally significant capital-raising subsequent to year end has 
provided  further  cash  resources  in  order  to  ensure  prospecting  activities  are  continued  as  planned  without 
interruption.  For  additional  information  of  capital-raising  subsequent  to  year  end  refer  to  material  post  balance 
sheet events disclosed in Note 21 to the financial statements.  

The future of the Company and the Group is dependent on the successful future outcome of its short and medium 
term  ability  to  raise  new  equity  funding  and  the  successful  development  of  its  exploration  interests  and  of  the 
availability  of  further  funding  to  bring  these  interests  to  production.  The  Directors  consider  that  in  preparing  the 
financial statements they have taken into account all information that could reasonably be expected to be available. 
Consequently, they consider that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT 

Environmental responsibility 

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31 DECEMBER 2013 

The Group recognises that its activities require it to have regard to the potential impact that it, its subsidiaries and 
partners may have on the environment. Where exploration and development works are carried out, care is taken to 
limit the amount of disturbance and where any  remediation works are required they are carried out as and when 
required. 
Dividends 

There have been no dividends declared or paid during the current financial period (2012: £ nil). 
Corporate Governance Policy 

The  Board  is  aware  of  the  importance  to  conform  to  its  statutory  responsibilities  and  industry  good  practice  in 
relation to corporate governance of the Group. 

The Board is accountable to the shareholders for delivery of sustained value growth. In order to support its duties 
and  responsibilities  the  Board  implements  control  procedures  that  assess  and  manage  risk  and  ensure  robust 
financial  and  operational  management  within  the  Group.  The  principal  risks  that  the  Group  is  exposed  to  can  be 
classified under the general headings of exploration risk, commodity risk, price risk, currency risk and political risk. 

The Board also sets the Group’s core values and ethical standards of business conduct ensuring these are effectively 
communicated to all staff and are monitored continuously by the Board. 

The  Board  sets  the  Group’s  strategy  and  monitors  its  implementation  through  management  and  financial 
performance  reviews.  It  also  works  to  ensure  that  adequate  resources  are  available  to  implement  strategy  in  a 
timely manner. 

The Group subscribes to the values of good corporate governance at all levels and is committed to conduct business 
with  discipline,  integrity  and  social  responsibility.  In  terms  of  the  JSE  &  AIM  Listings  Requirements,  the  Group  is 
required to report in respect of the third King Report (“King III”) for its financial period ended 31 December 2013, 
on  the  extent  to  which  it  has  complied  with  the  principles  as  set  out  in  King  III.  The  Board  of  Directors  is  firmly 
committed to promoting Kibo Mining Plc’s adherence to the principles contained in the Code of Corporate Practices 
and Conduct as set out in the King III. The Code is constantly being reviewed and the Directors are implementing the 
Code in a phased manner. The Directors are committed to the implementation of the principles and non-compliance 
is limited to the matter listed in this report.

considering  future  prospects  as  the  Group’s  operations  increase.  During  the  period  the  Board  has  taken 
responsibility  to  ensure  effective  governance,  risk  management  and  that  the  internal  control  environment  is 
maintained.

state  whether  applicable  accounting  standards  have  been  followed,  subject  to  any  material  departures

time  the  financial  position  of  the  Company  and  which  enable  them  to  ensure  that  its  financial  statements  are 
prepared  in  accordance  with  International  Financial  Reporting  Standards,  and  comply  with  the  Companies  Acts, 
1963 to 2013, and European Communities (Companies: Group Accounts) Regulations 1992 and all regulations to be 
construed as one with those acts. They are also responsible for taking such steps as are reasonably open to them to 
safeguard  the  assets  of  the  Group  and  Company  and  hence  for  taking  reasonable  steps  for  the  prevention  and 
detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The Directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included 
on  the  Company’s  website.  Legislation  in  the  Republic  of  Ireland  governing  the  preparation  and  dissemination  of 
financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

KIBO MINING PLC 
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS 

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31 DECEMBER 2013 

We have audited the Group and Company financial statements of Kibo Mining plc for the year ended 31 December 
2013  which  comprise  the  Consolidated  Statement  of  Comprehensive  Income,  Consolidated  Statement  of  Financial 
Position,  Company  Statement  of  Financial  Position,  Consolidated  Statement  of  Cash  Flows,  Company  Statement  of 
Cash Flows, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, Company Statement of Changes in Equity and the related 
notes. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparations is Irish Law and International 
Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the European Union. 

This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Section 193 of the Companies 
Act 1990. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we 
are required to state to them in an Auditors' Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, 
we  do  not  accept  or  assume  responsibility  to  anyone  other  than  the  company  and  the  company's  members  as  a 
body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. 
Respective responsibilities of directors and auditors 

As  explained  more  fully  in  the  Directors'  Responsibilities  Statement,  the  directors  are  responsible  for  the 
preparation of the Group financial statements giving a true and fair view. Our responsibility is to audit and express 
an  opinion  on  the  Group  financial  statements  in  accordance  with  applicable  law  and  International  Financial 
Reporting  Standards  as  adopted  by  the  European  Union  ("IFRS")  and  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with 
Companies Acts 1963 to 2013. 
Scope of the audit of the financial statements 

An audit involves obtaining evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements sufficient to give 
reasonable assurance that the Group financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by 
fraud  or  error.  This  includes  an  assessment  of:  whether  the  accounting  policies  are  appropriate  to  the  Group  and 
company's  circumstances  and  have  been  consistently  applied  and  adequately  disclosed;  the  reasonableness  of 
significant accounting estimates made by the directors; and the overall presentation of the financial statements. In 
addition, we  read all the financial and  non-financial information in the Report  to identify  material inconsistencies 
with the audited financial statements and to identify any information that is apparently materially incorrect based 
on, or materially inconsistent with, the knowledge acquired by us in the course of performing the audit. This other 
information comprises only the Directors’ Report and the Chairman's Report and Review of Activities If we become 
aware of any apparent material misstatements or inconsistencies we consider the implications for our report. 
Opinion on financial statements 

In our opinion: 







the Group financial statements give a true and fair view, in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the EU, of 
the  state  of  the  Group's  affairs  as  at  31  December  2013  and  of  its  loss  and  cashflows  for  the  year  then 
ended; 
the Company financial statements give a true and fair view, in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the EU 
and as applied in accordance  with the provisions of  the Companies Acts  1963  to 2013, of the state of the 
Company's affairs as at 31 December 2013; and 
the  financial  statements  have  been  properly  prepared  in  accordance  with  the  requirements  of  the 
Companies Acts 1963 to 2013 and all regulations to be construed as one with those acts. 

Emphasis of Matter – Realisation of Assets 

In  forming  our  opinion  on  the  financial  statements,  which  is  not  modified,  we  considered  the  adequacy  of 
disclosures  made  in  Notes  10,  11,  12  and  18  to  the  financial  statements  concerning  the  valuation  of  intangible 
assets, amounts due from Group undertakings and investments in Group undertakings. The realisation of intangible 
assets  of  £9,718,509  (2012:  £21,054,614),  amounts  due  from  Group  undertakings  of  £25,286,099  (2012: 
£24,462,066)  and  investments  in  Group  undertakings  of  £1,700,000  (2012:  £4,326,511)  included  in  the  Company 
Statement  of  Financial  Position  is  dependent  on  the  discovery  of  economic  reserves  including  the  ability  of  the 
Group to raise sufficient finance to develop the projects.

We  have  obtained  all  the  information  and  explanations  which  we  consider  necessary  for  the  purposes  of

In our opinion proper books of account have been kept by the Company. 
The Company Statement of Financial Position is in agreement with the books of account. 
In our opinion the information given in the Directors' Report is consistent with the financial statements. 
The net assets of the Company, as stated in the Company Statement of Financial Position, are more than half 
of  the  amount  of  its  called-up  share  capital  and,  in  our  opinion,  on  that  basis  there  did  not  exist  at  31 
December 2013 a financial situation which under section 40(1) of the Companies (Amendment) Act 1983 
would require the convening of an Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company. 

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

We  have  nothing  to  report  in  respect  of  the  provisions  in  the  Companies  Acts  1963  to  2013  which  require  us  to 
report to you if, in our opinion, the disclosures of directors' remuneration and transactions specified by law are not 
made.

been applied consistently by Group entities. The Group and Company financial statements have been prepared on a 
going concern basis as explained on page 9. 
Use of Estimates and Judgements 

The  preparation  of  financial  statements  in  conformity  with  EU  IFRS  requires  management  to  make  judgements, 
estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  the  application  of  accounting  policies  and  the  reported  amounts  of  assets, 
liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and 
various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis 
of  making  judgements  about  carrying  values  of  assets  and  liabilities  that  are  not  readily  apparent  from  other 
sources. 

In  particular,  there  are  significant  areas  of  estimation,  uncertainty  and  critical  judgements  in  applying  accounting 
policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements in the following 
areas: 




Measurement of the recoverable amounts of intangible assets; and 
Utilisation of tax losses 
Exploration and evaluation expenditure 

The  Group’s  accounting  policy  for  exploration  and  evaluation  expenditure  results  in  the  capitalisation  of  certain 
intangible  mineral  resources  which  are  identified  through  business  combinations  or  equivalent  acquisitions.  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  based  on  the  separately 
identified  mineral  resources.  Any  such  estimates  and  assumptions  may  change  as  new  information  becomes 
available.  If,  after  having  capitalised  the  intangible  mineral  resources  under  the  policy,  a  judgement  is  made  that 
recovery  of  the  intangible  asset  is  unlikely,  the  relevant  capitalised  amount  will  be  written  off  to  the  income 
statement. 
Taxation 

Assessing  the  recoverability  of  deferred  income  tax  assets  requires  the  Company  to  make  significant  estimates 
related to expectations of future taxable income. Estimates of future taxable income are based on forecast cash flows 
from operations and the application of existing tax laws in each jurisdiction. To the extent that future cash flows and 
taxable income differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the Company to realise the net deferred tax assets 
recorded at the end of the reporting period could be impacted.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31 DECEMBER 2013 

 Revenue Recognition - Interest Revenue 

Interest revenue is accrued  on a  time  basis, by reference to  the  principal outstanding and at the effective interest 
rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of 
the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount. 
Consolidation  

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Kibo Mining Plc and its subsidiaries for 
the year ended 31 December 2013. 

Subsidiaries  are  entities  controlled  by  the  Group.  Control  exists  when  the  Group  has  the  power,  directly  or 
indirectly, to govern  the financial and operating policies of an  entity so as  to obtain benefits from  its activities. In 
assessing  control,  potential  voting  rights  that  are  currently  exercisable  or  convertible  are  taken  into  account. 
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. 

Accounting  policies  of  subsidiaries  have  been  changed  where  necessary  to  ensure  consistency  with  the  policies 
adopted by the Group. 

Intragroup balances and any unrealised gains or losses or income or expenses arising from intragroup transactions 
are  eliminated  in  preparing  the  Group  financial  statements,  except  to  the  extent  they  provide  evidence  of 
impairment. 

The Group accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. The cost of the business 
combination  is  measured  as  the  aggregate  of  the  fair  values  of  assets  given,  liabilities  incurred  or  assumed  and 
equity instruments issued. Costs directly attributable to the business combination are expensed as incurred, except 
the  costs  to  issue  debt  which  are  amortised  as  part  of  the  effective  interest  and  costs  to  issue  equity  which  are 
included in equity. 

The acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities which meet the recognition conditions of IFRS 
3 Business Combinations are recognised at their fair values at acquisition date. 

Contingent  liabilities  are  only  included  in  the  identifiable  assets  and  liabilities  of  the  acquiree  where  there  is  a 
present obligation at acquisition date. 

Non-controlling interest arising from a business combination is measured either at their share of  the fair value of 
the  assets  and  liabilities  of  the  acquiree  or  at  fair  value.  The  treatment  is  not  an  accounting  policy  choice  but  is 
selected for each individual business combination, and disclosed in the note for business combinations. 
Goodwill 


An intangible asset is recognised when: 



it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the entity; 
and; 
the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. 

Consolidated financial statements 
Goodwill arising from the acquisition of a subsidiary represents the excess of the cost of the acquisition over the 
Group's interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the subsidiary 
recognised at the date of acquisition. 

Goodwill is initially measured at cost and is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. 

Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis.

Intangible Assets 


An intangible asset is recognised when: 


it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the entity; 
and 
the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. 

Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment.  

Irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment, the Group also: 



tests  intangible  assets  with  an  indefinite  useful  life  or  intangible  assets  not  yet  available  for  use  for  impairment 
annually by comparing its carrying amount with its recoverable amount. This impairment test is performed during 
the annual period and at the same time every period; and 
test goodwill by comparing its carrying value with its recoverable amount. 

Exploration & Evaluation Assets 

Exploration  and  evaluation  activity  involves  the  search  for  mineral  resources,  the  determination  of  technical 
feasibility and the assessment of commercial viability of an identified resource. Exploration and evaluation activity 
includes: 

• researching and analysing historical exploration data; 
• gathering exploration data through topographical, geochemical and geophysical studies; 
• exploratory drilling, trenching and sampling; 
• determining and examining the volume and grade of the resource; 
• surveying transportation and infrastructure requirements; and 
• conducting market and finance studies. 

Administration costs attributable to exploration activities are charged to the income statement. Licence costs paid in 
connection with a right to explore in an existing exploration area are charged to the income statement. Exploration 
and evaluation expenditure is charged to the income statement as incurred except in the following circumstances, in 
which case the expenditure may be capitalised: 

• In respect of minerals activities: 
– 

 the  exploration  and  evaluation  activity  is  within  an  area  of  interest  which  was  previously  acquired  as  an 
asset acquisition or in a business combination and measured at fair value on acquisition; or 
 the existence of a commercially viable mineral deposit has been established. 

– 

Capitalised  exploration  and  evaluation  expenditure  considered  to  be  tangible  is  recorded  as  a  component  of 
property,  plant  and  equipment  at  cost  less  impairment  charges.  Otherwise,  it  is  recorded  as  an  intangible.  As  the 
capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure asset is not available for use, it is not depreciated. All capitalised 
exploration and evaluation expenditure is monitored for indications of impairment. Where a potential impairment is 
indicated,  assessment  is  performed  for  each  area  of  interest  in  conjunction  with  the  group  of  operating  assets 
(representing  a  cash  generating  unit)  to  which  the  exploration  is  attributed.  Exploration  areas  at  which  reserves 
have been discovered but require major capital expenditure before production can begin, are continually evaluated 
to ensure that commercial quantities of reserves exist or to ensure that additional exploration work is under way or 
planned. 
Impairment 

Assets are reviewed for impairment at each reporting date or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate 
that  the  carrying  amount  may  not  be  recoverable.  An  impairment  loss  is  recognised  for  the  amount  by  which  the 
asset’s  carrying  amount  exceeds  its  recoverable  amount.  The  recoverable  amount  is  the  higher  of  an  asset’s  fair 
value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest 
levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating units).  

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the 
carrying  amount  of  the  asset  (cash-generating  unit)  is  reduced  to  its  recoverable  amount.  An  impairment  loss  is 
recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income immediately.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

Property, Plant and Equipment  

Group companies  

Property,  Plant  and  Equipment  are  stated  at  cost  or  valuation,  less  accumulated  depreciation.  Depreciation  is 
provided  at  rates  calculated  to  write  off  the  cost  less  residual  value  of  each  asset  over  its  expected  useful  life,  as 
follows:  

The  results  and  financial  position  of  all  the  Group  entities  (none  of  which  has  the  currency  of  a  hyperinflationary 

economy)  that  have  a  functional  currency  different  from  the  presentation  currency  are  translated  into  the 

presentation currency as follows: 



Office equipment-between 12.5% to 37.5% straight line; 
Plant & machinery at 20% straight line; 
Furniture & fixtures at 12.5% straight line; 
Motor vehicles at 25% straight line; and 
I.T Equipment at 20% straight line 

The  residual  value  and  useful  lives  of  the  property,  plant  and  equipment  are  reviewed  annually  and  adjusted  if 
appropriate at each Statement of Financial Position date.  

On disposal of property, plant and equipment the cost and the  related accumulated depreciation and impairments 
are  removed  from  the  financial  statements  and  the  net  amount,  less  any  proceeds,  is  taken  to  the  Statement  of 
Comprehensive Income. 
Income Tax 

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognised in the Income Statement 
except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity.  

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively 
enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. 

Deferred  tax  is  recognised  using  the  balance  sheet  method,  providing  for  temporary  differences  between  the 
carrying  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  for  financial  reporting  purposes  and  the  amounts  used  for  taxation 
purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of goodwill, 
the  initial  recognition  of  assets  or  liabilities  in  a  transaction  that  is  not  a  business  combination  and  that  affects 
neither accounting nor taxable profit, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they 
probably will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be 
applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively 
enacted by the reporting date. 

A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against 
which temporary difference can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced 
to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised. 

Additional income taxes that arise from the distribution of dividends are recognised at the same time as the liability 
to pay the related dividend is recognised. 
Foreign Currencies 
Functional and presentation currency 

Items  included  in  the  financial  statements  of  each  of  the  Group’s  entities  are  measured  using  the  currency  of  the 
primary economic environment in which the entity operates (“the functional currency”). The consolidated financial 
statements are presented in Sterling, which is the Group’s presentation currency. This is also the functional currency 
of the Group and Company and is considered by the Board also to be appropriate for the purposes of preparing the 
Group financial statements.  
Transactions and balances  

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the 
dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and 
from  the  translation  at  period  end  exchange  rates  of  monetary  assets  and  liabilities  denominated  in  foreign 
currencies are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.  

Monetary  assets  and  liabilities  for  each  Statement  of  Financial  Position  presented  are  presented  at  the 

closing  rate  at  the  date  of  that  Statement  of  Financial  Position.  Non-monetary  items  are  measured  at  the 

exchange  rate  in  effect  at  the  historical  transaction  date  and  are  not  translated  at  each  Statement  of 

Financial Position date; 

Income  and  expenses  for  each  income  statement  are  translated  at  average  exchange  rates  (unless  this 

average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction 

dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the transaction): and 





All  resulting  exchange  differences  are  recognised  as  a  separate  component  of  equity.  On  consolidation, 

exchange differences arising from the translation of monetary items receivable from foreign subsidiaries for 

which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future are taken to shareholders 

equity. When a foreign operation is sold, such exchange differences are recognised in the income statement 

Issue Expenses and Share Premium Account 

as part of the gain or loss on sale. 

Issue expenses are written off against the premium arising on the issue of share capital. 

Earnings per Share 

The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated 

by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number 

of  ordinary  shares  outstanding  during  the  period.  Diluted  EPS  is  determined  by  adjusting  the  profit  or  loss 

attributable  to  ordinary  shareholders  and  the  weighted  average  number  of  ordinary  shares  outstanding  for  the 

effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. 

Headline  earnings  per  share  (HEPS)  is  calculated  using  the  weighted  average  number  of  ordinary  shares  in  issue 

during the period and is based on the earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders, after excluding those items as 

required by Circular 2/2013 issued by the South African Institute of Chartered Accountants (SAICA). 

Financial Instruments 

Cash and Cash Equivalents 

Cash and Cash Equivalents in the Statement of Financial Position comprise cash at bank and in hand and short term 

deposits with an original maturity of three months or less. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form 

part of the Group’s cash management are included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of 

the statement of cash flows. 

Trade and other receivables / payables 

Trade and other receivables and payables are stated at cost less  impairment, which approximates fair value given 

the short dated nature of these assets and liabilities. 

Share based payments 

For such grants of share options, the fair value as at the date of  grant is calculated using the Black-Scholes option 

pricing  model,  taking  into  account  the  terms  and  conditions  upon  which  the  options  were  granted.  The  amount 

recognised  as  an  expense  is  adjusted  to  reflect  the  actual  number  of  share  options  that  are  likely  to  vest,  except 

where forfeiture is only due to market based conditions not achieving the threshold for vesting.

-      Most  of  the  requirements  for  financial  liabilities 
were  carried  forward  unchanged  from  IAS  39. 
However,  some  changes  were  made  to  the  fair  value 
option  for  financial  liabilities  to  address  the  issue  of 
own  credit  risk.  Entities  may  voluntarily  continue  to 
measure  their  financial  instruments  in  accordance 
with IAS 39 but benefit from the improved accounting 
for  own  credit  risk  in  IFRS  9  by  early  adopting  only 
that aspect of IFRS 9 separately.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED AND COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Segment analysis 

IFRS 8 requires an entity to report financial and descriptive information about its reportable segments, which are 
operating  segments  or  aggregations  of  operating  segments  that  meet  specific  criteria.  Operating  segments  are 
components of an  entity about which separate  financial information  is available that is evaluated regularly by  the 
chief operating decision maker. The Chief Executive Officer is the Chief Operating decision maker of the Group. 

Management  currently  identifies  two  divisions  as  operating  segments  –  mining  and  corporate.  These  operating 
segments are monitored and strategic decisions are made based upon them  together with other non-financial data 
collated from exploration activities. Principal activities for these operating segments are as follows: 

Mining  –  incorporates  the  acquisition,  exploration  and  development  of  mineral  resources  in  Tanzania;  and 
Corporate – non mining and head office activities of the Group.

Directors’ emoluments 

The difference between the total current tax shown above and the amount calculated by applying the standard rate 
of Irish corporation tax of 12.5% to the loss before tax is as follows: 

Loss from Continuing operations

Income tax expense recognised in the Statement Of Comprehensive Income 

- 

- 

The effective tax rate used for the December 2013 and December 2012 reconciliations above is the corporate rate of 
12.5% payable by corporate entities in Ireland on taxable profits under tax law in that jurisdiction. 

No provision has been made for the 2013 deferred taxation as no taxable income has been received to date, and the 
probability  of  future  taxable  income  is  indicative  of  current  market  conditions  which  remain  unlikely.  At  the 
Statement of Financial Position date, the Group had estimated unused tax losses of £10,497,432 (2012: £9,086,808) 
available  for  offset  against  future  profits  which  equates  to  an  estimated  deferred  tax  asset  of  £1,312,179  (2012: 
£1,135,381).  No  deferred  tax  asset  has  been  recognised  due  to  the  unpredictability  of  the  future  profit  streams. 
Losses may be carried forward indefinitely in accordance with the applicable taxation regulations ruling within each 
of the above jurisdictions.

Loss of parent Company 

As permitted by Section 148(8) of the Companies Act 1963, the statement of comprehensive income of the parent 
Company  has  not  been  separately  disclosed  in  these  financial  statements.  The  parent  Company’s  loss  for  the

Intangible assets 

Intangible  assets  consist  mostly  of  separately  identifiable  prospecting  assets  identified  through  business 
combinations,  where  these  separately  identifiable  intangible  assets  will  be  recognised  at  fair  value  on  acquisition 
date of said subsidiary. 

The following reconciliation serves to summarise the composition of intangible prospecting assets as at period end:

21,054,614

(11,336,105) 

17,201,064 
9,718,509  21,054,614
- 

Intangible assets are not amortised, due to the indefinite useful life which is attached to the underlying prospecting 
rights,  until  such  time  that  active  mining  operations  commence,  which  will  result  in  the  intangible  asset  being 
amortised over the useful life of the relevant mining licences. 

Intangible assets are assessed for indications of impairment on an annual basis, against the prospective fair value of 
the intangible asset. The valuation of intangible assets with an indefinite useful life is reassessed on an annual basis 
through valuation techniques applicable to the nature of the intangible assets. 

In assessing whether a write-down is required in the carrying value of a potentially impaired intangible asset, the 
asset’s carrying value is compared with its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of the asset’s 
fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Unless indicated otherwise, the recoverable amount used in assessing 
the impairment losses described below is the value in use. The valuation techniques applicable to the valuation of 
the  abovementioned  intangible  assets  comprise  a  combination  of  fair  market  values,  discounted  cash  flow 
projections and historic transaction prices. 

Due to the  relative distinct  nature of the intangible assets, no active market exists through which these assets are 
traded,  which  results  in  increased  estimation  uncertainty  due  mainly  to  unobservable  inputs  in  relation  to  the 
measurement of the intangible assets.

The nature of amounts owed by Group undertakings is such that the expected recovery thereof is in excess of one

Trade and other receivables pledged as security 

None of the above stated trade and other receivables were pledged as security at period end. Credit quality of trade 
and other receivables that are neither past due nor impaired can be assessed by reference to historical repayment 
trends of the individual debtors. 

Debtors  have  been  individually  assessed  for  any  indication  of  impairment  and  a  provision  has  been  raised 
accordingly where relevant. 

The carrying value of current trade and other receivables equals their fair value due mainly to the short term nature 
of these receivables.

The  Company  resolved  to  decrease  the  number  of  shares  in  issue  as  well  as  increase  the  nominal  value  of  each 
share, through a Capital Re-organisation whereby every ordinary shareholder would receive 1 new ordinary share 
for every 15 previously held ordinary shares, at the revised nominal value of €0.015 per share in issue, applicable to 
all shareholders registered as at 23 March 2013.  

The  total  number  of  existing  ordinary  shares  in  the  Company  in  issue  as  at  23  March  2013,  prior  to  the 
reorganisation,  was 1,291,394,535. Following the  reorganisation, the Company had  86,092,969 ordinary shares of 
€0.015 par value in issue. 

The  Deferred  Shares  will  not  entitle  holders  to  receive  notice  of,  or  attend  or  vote  at  any  general  meeting  of  the 
Company or to receive a dividend or other distribution or to participate in any return on capital on a winding up 
other than the nominal amount paid following a substantial distribution to the holders of the Ordinary Shares in the 
Company. Accordingly, for all practical purposes the Deferred Shares will be valueless, and it is the boards intention 
at the appropriate time, to purchase the Deferred Shares at an aggregate consideration of €1.

The  following  detail  is  provided  pertaining  to  the  acquisition  of  Mzuri  Energy  Limited  with  effect  from  1  October 
2012, and its corresponding share based payment transaction: 

On  1  August  2011  Mzuri  Energy  Limited  established  a  share  option  program  that  entitles  key  management 
personnel  to  purchase  shares  in  the  Company.  In  accordance  with  the  program,  holders  of  vested  options  are 
entitled to purchase shares at the market price of the shares at the date of grant.

The fair value of the share-based payment is based upon the Black-Scholes formula, a commonly used option pricing 
model.    The  calculation  of  volatility  used  in  the  model  is  based  upon  an  average  of  market  prices  against  current 
market prices of listed companies operating in the mining industry.

The  Company  resolved  to  decrease  the  number  of  shares  in  issue  as  well  as  increase  the  nominal  value  of  each 

share, through a Capital Re-organisation whereby every ordinary shareholder would receive 1 new ordinary share 

for every 15 previously held ordinary shares, at the revised nominal value of €0.015 per share in issue, applicable to 

all shareholders registered as at 23 March 2013.  

The  total  number  of  existing  ordinary  shares  in  the  Company  in  issue  as  at  23  March  2013,  prior  to  the 

reorganisation,  was 1,291,394,535. Following the  reorganisation, the Company had  86,092,969 ordinary shares of

*During  the  current  period  the  Company  acquired  the  entire  share  capital  of  Reef  Miners  Limited  for  the  cash 
consideration of  £145,699. 

**During  the  prior  period  the  Company  acquired  the  entire  share  capital  of  Mzuri  Energy  Limited,  and  its  wholly 
owned  subsidiaries  Rukwa  Holdings  Limited  (Previously  “Mzuri  Coal  Limited”),  Rukwa  Coal  Limited  and  Mzuri 
Power  Limited  through  its  wholly  owned  subsidiary  Kibo  Mining  (Cyprus)  Limited  (Previously  “Morogoro  Gold

Additionally  during  the  prior  period  Mzuri  Energy  Limited  acquired  the  entire  share  capital  of  Kibo  Uranium 
Limited (Previously “Mbeya Uranium Limited”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries Pinewood Resources Limited and 
Makambako  Resources  Limited,  through  the  issue  of  ordinary  shares  for  to  the  total  consideration  of  CAD 
$1.2million. 

In  the  prior  period  the  entire  interest  of  Kibo  Mining  South  Africa  (Pty)  Ltd  (Previously  Mayborn  Resource 
Investments Proprietary Limited) incorporated in South Africa was acquired through the issue of ordinary shares to 
the value of £0.8million. 

These corporate acquisitions of the prior period were financed entirely through the issue of ordinary shares as set 
out in Note 14. 

The  value  of  the  investments  is  dependent  on  the  discovery  and  successful  development  of  evaluation  and 
exploration  assets.  Should  the  development  of  the  evaluation  and  exploration  assets  prove  unsuccessful,  the 
carrying value in the statement of financial position will be written off. In the opinion of the Directors’ the carrying 
value of the investments is appropriate.

Foreign currency risk 

The  Group  undertakes  certain  transactions  denominated  in  foreign  currencies  and  exposures  to  exchange  rate 
fluctuations  therefore  arise.  Exchange  rate  exposures  are  managed  by  continuously  reviewing  exchange  rate 
movements  in  the  relevant  foreign  currencies.  The  exposure  to  exchange  rate  fluctuations  is  limited  as  the 
Company’s subsidiaries operate mainly with Sterling, Euros, South African Rands, US Dollar and Tanzanian Shillings.  

At the period ended 31 December 2013, the Group had no outstanding forward exchange contracts.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31 DECEMBER 2013 

Credit risk 

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counter party will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss 
to the Group. As the Group does not, as yet, have any sales to third parties, this risk is limited. 

The Group and Company’s  financial assets comprise receivables and cash and cash equivalents. The credit risk on 
cash  and  cash  equivalents  is  limited  because  the  counterparties  are  banks  with  high  credit-ratings  assigned  by 
international  credit  rating  agencies.  The  Group  and  Company’s  exposure  to  credit  risk  arise  from  default  of  its 
counterparty,  with  a  maximum  exposure  equal  to  the  carrying  amount  of  cash  and  cash  equivalents  in  its 
consolidated statement of financial position.  

The  Group  does  not  have  any  significant  credit  risk  exposure  to  any  single  counterparty  or  any  Group  of 
counterparties having similar characteristics. The Group defines counterparties as having similar characteristics if 
they are connected or related entities. 

Financial assets exposed to credit risk at period end were as follows:

Ultimate  responsibility  for  liquidity  risk  management  rests  with  the  Board  of  Directors,  which  has  built  an 
appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Group and Company’s short, medium 
and  long-term  funding  and  liquidity  management  requirements.  The  Group  manages  liquidity  risk  by  maintaining 
adequate  reserves  and  by  continuously  monitoring  forecast  and  actual  cash  flows  and  matching  the  maturity 
profiles  of  financial  assets  and  liabilities.  Cash  forecasts  are  regularly  produced  to  identify  the  liquidity 
requirements  of  the  Group.  To  date,  the  Group  has  relied  on  shareholder  funding  to  finance  its  operations.  The 
Group had no borrowing facilities at 31 December 2013. 

The Group and Company’s financial liabilities as at 31 December 2013 were all payable on demand, other than the

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT 31 DECEMBER 2013 

Group Sensitivity Analysis: 

At 31 December 2013, if the interest rate had weakened/strengthened by 1% with all other variables held constant, 
post-tax  profit  for  the  year  would  have  been  £4,437  (2012:  £987)  higher,  mainly  as  a  result  of  foreign  exchange 
gains or losses on translation of US dollar denominated financial assets. 
Capital risk management 

The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern while 
maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. 

The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, in light of changes in economic conditions. To 
maintain or adjust its capital structure, the  Group may  adjust or issue new shares  or raise debt. No  changes were 
made in the objectives, policies or  processes during the  period ended 31 December 2013. The capital structure  of 
the  Group  consists  of  equity  attributable  to  equity  holders  of  the  parent,  comprising  issued  capital,  reserves  and 
retained losses as disclosed in the consolidated statement of changes in equity. 
Fair values  

The carrying amount of the Group and Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at amortised 
cost in the financial statements approximate their fair value. 
Hedging 

At 31 December 2013, the Group had no outstanding contracts designated as hedges. 
Fair value estimation 

Effective 1 January 2013, the group adopted IFRS 13 for the fair value measurement of assets and liabilities. 

The following table presents assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The group uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments: 

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

Level  2:  inputs  other  than  quoted  prices  included  in  level  1  that  are  observable  for  the  asset  or  liability,  either 
directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices); and 

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

There have been no significant transfers between level 1, 2 or 3 during the period under review, nor were there any 
significant changes to the valuation techniques and inputs used to determine fair values. 

The executive management of the Group monitor the Group's exposure to the concentration of fair value estimation 
risk on a monthly basis.
