Chairman’s Letter
Dear Shareholder,
ASX Code: KIN
KIN Mining floated on the Australian Securities Exchange in October last year, bringing to market an exceptional portfolio
of highly prospective gold exploration properties in the Leonora region – one of Western Australia’s most prolific
gold-producing regions.
While the Company has already delivered some very encouraging results from a number of prospects within this
portfolio, we quickly recognised that, in order to build a gold business of scale and substance, we needed to aggressively
search for and acquire an advanced project which could fast-track our transition to production.
From our team’s deep knowledge and understanding of this area, we identified the truly extraordinary opportunity
presented by the Leonora Gold Project – which is without doubt one of the largest and most attractive undeveloped gold
projects in Australia.
Significant planning and development work has already been completed at all of these deposits, including pit
optimisation studies for each of the key deposits and metallurgical test work which returned 95% plus recoveries. A
Pre-Feasibility Study was completed in 2009 by the previous owner, Navigator Resources Ltd, for 97% of these ounces,
confirming an economically viable project.
The remarkable feature of this project is that none of the key deposits have ever been drilled to target their depth
potential, yet we know that several other deposits in the region extend to significant depths. This is a huge opportunity
for our exploration team moving forward.
It is fair to say that such an extraordinary opportunity would not have become available except for the fact that the gold
market – and the junior resource sector generally – is currently at a historically low point in the investment cycle. It is for
this reason that we moved quickly and decisively to conclude an agreement with the Administrator of Navigator
Resources Ltd to acquire this project, notwithstanding the current negative sentiment in the gold sector.
The purchase price represents an acquisition cost of approximately $3.60 per resource ounce, which is well below what it
would cost to define such ounces if we were fortunate to make such a discovery. This compares with an independent
valuation by Optiro Pty Ltd which equates to a valuation of $11.30 per resource ounce.
Good assets are nothing without the right team of people in place with the passion, focus, experience and ability to
unlock their value. From all the companies I’ve been involved with, I can tell you that KIN Mining brings together a board
and senior management team with a depth of experience and capability for junior start-up gold company which, in my 35
-year career in the global mining and exploration industry, I have rarely seen.
Most importantly, our overarching objective is to deliver value for our shareholders – through capital growth. We have a
clear strategy to grow a substantial Australian gold group.
Our management team is not of the “steady as she goes” variety. Rather, they comprise a unique group of individuals
who have worked for many years in the Leonora region – doing the “hard yards” through some of the toughest times the
industry has ever seen, often without pay.
This team has identified what they believe to be some exceptional opportunities and are moving quickly to seize and
capitalise on the existing highly prospective assets. We are all determined and committed to make this work and our
ultimate goal is to achieve gold production and substantial shareholder returns.
Yours faithfully,
Terry Grammer
Chairman

Review of Operations
Murrin Murrin
During the year three Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling campaigns were conducted at Murrin Murrin (P39/5179) for an advance
of 2,909m. The drill programmes intercepted supergene and primary gold intersections. The down hole geology displayed
quartz veining, occasionally carbonated, in mafic gabbro associated with regional thrust faults. Sulphides, dominantly pyrite,
are associated with the host rock and low percentages of sulphides were observed with the quartz veining.
The most significant primary gold intersection (MM13RC013) is positioned beneath weathered clayey regolith (35-40m deep) in
an area of no outcrop; however the unit is interpreted to strike north-easterly and dip south easterly. Best assay results (>1g/t
Au) are tabulated below.
Significant intersections include:
MM13RC013 - 31m @ 4.29 g/t Au (64-95m) including 2m @ 34.23g/t Au (87-89m)
MM14RC022 - 23m @ 1.00 g/t Au (13-36m)
MM14RC021 - 11m @ 2.56 g/t Au (20-31m)
MM14RC023 - 4m @ 4.62 g/t Au (84-88m)
MM14RC027 - 10m @ 1.31 g/t Au (30-40m)
MM14RC028 - 9m @ 1.90 g/t Au (33-42m)
The drilling of the scissor hole MM14RC023, was aimed at following up on previous significant intersections including the high
grade intersection encountered in MM13RC013, which returned 2m @ 34.23g/t Au from 87m down-hole.
Figure 1: Murrin Murrin Eastern Gabbro Prospect (P39/5179) annotated drill hole location plan
displaying down hole gold intercepts

Drill hole MM14RC023 intersected a mineralised ore zone, interpreted to represent the high grade shoot encountered in
MM13RC013; however the geometry and orientation of the mineralised envelope intersected in MM13RC017 and
MM13RC013 has not yet been fully determined. Originally, 4m composite samples were collected and assayed; results
considered anomalous were analysed via fire assay at 1m intervals. All RC drill samples, including re-splits at one metre
intervals, have been received from the Murrin Murrin Eastern Gabbro Prospect (P39/5179).

Iron King
Four RC drill holes were drilled at Iron King for an advance of 370m. The holes targeted three separate gold prospects (the
Reeds United, Crystal Ridge and Blue Spec Prospects). Several anomalous results (>0.2g/t Au) were returned from Crystal Ridge
with a best result of 1m @ 1.64g/t Au from 29m in hole XR14RC001 (see Table 2).
Five new contiguous Prospecting Licences have been granted at Iron King, one of the prospects, following reconnaissance sam-
pling, the“32 Prospect” returned a peak rock chip assay of 25.2g/t Au.
The Reeds United workings are located between Iron King and Crystal Ridge, and have returned rock chips assaying over 20 g/t
Au from old workings spoils and mullock dumps, 14.97g/t Au from a nearby shallow prospecting pit and 3.89g/t Au from a cos-
tean immediately west of the Iron King open cut were obtained during recent rock chip sampling (Figure 4). The anomalous
assay locations at Reeds United were tested with RC drilling in February 2014. No significant assay results were returned from
the drill programme.
The Crystal Ridge area has been explored by several companies in the past (Dominion, Jubilee, Forsayth and Dakota), with a
small gold deposit being defined. The mineralisation remains open down dip and along strike. A small amount of additional
drilling is required to assess the potential of the prospect.
The initial RC drill programme was terminated early due to the results of the first RC drill hole
Within the Iron King project area there are several targets that warrant additional exploratory work. Planning for some of
these has been completed, while for the majority, detailed planning is yet to be completed. The location presents drill and soil
sampling target areas particularly on the new ground.

Leonora Gold Project
Throughout the period Kin have been negotiating with the Deed Administrator of Navigator Resources Ltd to complete the
acquisition of the Leonora Gold Project (LGP).
Located 15km to 40km north-east of Leonora, the LGP comprises an extensive well-endowed and prospective tenement
package covering an area of 308km2 (Figure 2). The LGP is located in the Eastern Goldfields Province of WA in a district that
hosts several (+3Moz) gold deposits.
The current Indicated and Inferred Gold Resource, as reported by Navigator in their June 2012 Quarterly Report, of 12.29Mt @
1.9g/t Au for 745,000oz (JORC 2004) is contained within 19 separate gold deposits that occur within four project areas namely:
Mertondale (395,000oz), Cardinia (199,000oz), Raeside (134,000oz) and Gambier Lass (17,000 oz). Navigator defined an
additional 282,000oz of gold has been identified outside of and adjacent to the currently optimised pit shells.
Figure 2: The Leonora Gold Project displaying gold resource locations and KIN’s current tenement package
Despite the presence of several multi-million ounce gold deposits in the Leonora region, the depth potential of the LGP gold
deposits remains largely untested.
At the end of the financial year Kin were in a position to acquire the LGP for a total consideration of $2.7 million, equating to an
acquisition cost of $2.63 per resource ounce of which a $200,000 deposit has already been paid. For an updated statement
with respect to the transaction see KIN ASX announcement of the 21st October 2014.
Over 70% of the resources are classified in the upper Indicated category and extensive mine planning and development work
has already been finalised with pit optimisations completed for each of the key deposits.
Pre-feasibility studies conducted by Navigator have been completed for the majority of the total Mineral Resource,
demonstrating an economically viable project utilising low risk open pit development of near-surface, oxide ore with the
flexibility of higher grade “starter pits” i.e. Bruno Lewis (Cardinia) and Tonto (Mertondale).
Upon settlement, Kin plans to immediately re-evaluate the existing resources, determine the depth potential and upgrade the
JORC 2004 resource to 2012 JORC compliance as soon as the acquisition of the LGP has been completed.

Redcastle
The Redcastle project is located NE of the historic Redcastle Mining Centre, 64km east of Leonora.
Recent rock chip sampling (see Figure 4) at Redcastle returned two significance results, 4.64g/t Au and 2.69g/t Au, from
copper-stained vein quartz at the Bellbird workings on P37/5105. An interpreted south easterly trending magnetic gabbro sill
extends under cover from Bellbird into P39/5267, where the next highest gold value, 2.02g/t Au, was returned from the “White
Shaft”. Both old workings are associated with a gabbro/tholeiitic volcanic contact on the eastern limb of the north plunging
Redcastle Anticline.
Historic drilling by Terrain Minerals in the vicinity of White Shaft gave a best intersection of 2 m @ 15.3 g/t Au which was never
followed up. The recent purchase of the remaining equity in P39/4930 at Redcastle increases the company’s holding to 100% of
the project.
Mt Flora
The Mt Flora Project is located 45km ENE of Leonora, the project area covers numerous historic gold workings associated with
the intersection of the NNE trending Federation and Sligo Creek Faults with the WNW trending Randwick Fault. The project
area is 7km NW off Glencore’s Murrin Murrin Ni-Co laterite mine and processing plant.
Recent rock chip sampling at Mt Flora returned an extremely high grade gold result of 115.98g/t Au from an individual channel
sample across the galena rich ore zone of an old historic shaft, this sample also assayed 50g/t Ag and 0.68% Pb (Figure 4). The
working is 500m along strike from the high grade (>1oz/t Au) Spion Kop mine on P39/4619, which is associated with a swarm of
NNE trending quartz veins interpreted to relate to the nearby Federation Fault on the eastern limb of the Mt Flora Syncline.
Other significant results include 2.73g/t Au (mullock dump quartz) and 3.93g/t Au from (iron stained quartz veining) that are
also associated with the NNE trending Federation Fault Zone.
The Mt Flora Project covers a sequence of tightly folded NNE trending greenstones in contact with the large granitic Nambi
Batholith to the north. The project area covers numerous alluvial gold detector patches and historic gold workings
concentrated along narrow sulphidic quartz reefs.
Historical drilling (20 angled RAB holes to 30m depth) with 4m composite sampling conducted by Sons of Gwalia Ltd (March
1988) on Kin’s recently granted P39/5463 returned best results of 4m @ 1.18g/t Au (24-28m) and 22m @ 0.53g/t Au (8-30m at
EOH).
The prospect presents as a walk-up drill target in an area that has only been previously tested to shallow depths. The project
area remains under assessment with data base compilation, aeromagnetic structural interpretation and examination of
historical gold workings (Figure 3).
Randwick
Randwick is situated on a major structural lineament, the Sandstone Mt Weld Lineament, between the Mertondale 1-4 Gold
Mines and Mt Flora. The structure is considered to be an important structural control for gold mineralisation in the region,
several major gold deposits in the Leonora-Laverton district occur along this craton scale tectonic feature including
Mertondale, Granny Smith, Wallaby and Mt Morgan’s gold mines.
Recent rock chip sampling of an old mullock dump at the Kauri Bore Prospect on P 39/8000 at Randwick returned assays of
4.16g/ Au and 0.89g/t Au (Figure 4). Randwick is a greenfields project that has been identified for its gold and base metal
potential.

Regional Rock Chip Sampling
A rock chip sampling reconnaissance campaign was carried out during the period, which consisted of a total of 44 samples.
The samples were taken from several of Kin’s project areas. Results were encouraging with a number of samples assaying
>10 g/t Au. A full list of assay results is attached in Table 3.

Desdemona
The Desdemona Project area overlies the western side of the Melita Greenstone Belt and the Mary Bore magnetic igneous
complex in contact with the Raeside Granitic Batholith. The greenstone stratigraphy generally strikes north-south to
northeast-southwest and is offset by several strike-slip faults. The Gwalia and Mt George Shear Zones form the margin between
the granitoids (granite and granitic gneiss) to the west and the greenstones to the east (Figure 5).

The project area overlies typical Archaean greenstones and meta-sediments intruded by sill-like bodies of mafic and ultramafic
rocks. Mafic lavas, rhyolites and dacites predominate in the sequence, with dolerites and gabbros being the dominant
intrusives.
Historical drilling has shown that the contact between the base of an ultramafic unit and a rhyolitic footwall is highly
prospective for Ni, Cu, PGEs and gold at the Kingfisher Prospect.
In addition anomalous gold drill intercepts have been identified at a number of other places within the project area including
Paradise North, Charcoal, Egret and the Gwalia Shear Zone (which encompasses the Annapurna, El Capitan, Gwalia South,
Charcoal West and Anzac Prospects).

Mafic volcanics and rhyolite to dacitic lavas and tuffs form most of the layered sequence and dolerites are the most abundant
intrusives. The rocks form part of a large, open syncline with a northeasterly trending axis.

Historical drilling, conducted in the 1970’s and 1980’s, at the Kingfisher Project (M40/330) identified a brecciated basal
ultramafic-rhyolite contact. Significant bedrock intersections have delineated a strong 450m long strike of nickel, copper and
PGE enrichment at the peridotite/rhyolite basal contact (Figure 6). The largest sulphide segregation was intersected in HWDD2
and consisted of 0.9m of strongly mineralised rhyolite breccia. Angular fragments of rhyolite are separated by up to 10cm of
sulphide minerals and the fragments themselves often contain sulphide veinlets.

The magnetic signature at Kingfisher indicates that the interpreted basal ultramafic contact extends over a strike length of at
least 1.4km; the depth extensions of this contact are unknown and have never been tested by drilling. The vast majority of
historical drilling has focused on the shallow hanging wall (western side) of the ultramafic sequence.
KIN’s geological team has identified an extensive zone of strong secondary Ni-Cu-Co-PGE surface enrichment at Kingfisher
correlating with the historical basal contact ore grade nickel and copper sulphide intersections with associated platinum and
palladium.

Annapurna
ASX Code: KIN
The newly applied contiguous tenement applications (PLA37/8500, PLA37/8504, ELA37/1201 and ELA37/1203) cover the
southern strike extensions of the Gwalia Shear Zone, a highly prospective broad zone of ductile deformation.
The tenements cover the ultramafic and mafic volcanic sequences that host the Sons of Gwalia mine (+7Moz). The same
greenstone package also encompasses the granite-ultramafic contact along the Gwalia Shear Zone that hosts both Tower Hill
(1 Moz) and the King of the Hills mines (1.8Moz production).

Exploration conducted by Sons of Gwalia (1999) along the Gwalia Shear Zone, identified a continuous sheared mafic/
ultramafic ± felsic porphyry units and an overlying felsic volcanic/sedimentary sequence and historic RAB and RC drilling has
returned several significant gold intersections.
Previous RC drill intersections within the application area, on the Gwalia Shear Zone at the Annapurna Prospect, returned a
best intersection of 4m @ 15.13 g/t Au (170-174m) including 1m @ 45.83g/t Au in quartz veining on the prospective granite-
ultramafic contact. This geological setting is similar to that found at Tower Hill and Harbour Lights (Figure 8).
The Annapurna Prospect presents as a priority drill target that warrants follow up drill investigation. Geological evaluation,
interrogation and compilation of historic data remain ongoing.
Paradise North
The Paradise Prospects, which are located on tenements P37/8439 and E37/1156, are characterised by a grouping of ore
grade intercepts in historic drill holes, positioned on the western margin of the Paradise Shear Zone (see Table 4). On the
eastern margin of this shear zone, a gossanous mylonite unit crops out over a strike length of around 850 meters and dips
around 35° to the east. Several historic prospecting pits and shafts were noted in this area. Rock chip sampling of these old
workings by KIN personnel in October 2013 returned assays of up to 1.12g/t Au (see ASX announcement 24th December 2013)
and has identified the area as worthy of further investigation.

The Paradise North Prospect covers an area of extensive gold anomalism associated with a north-east trending aeromagnetic
lineament parallel to the Butchers Flat Shear. In the northern part of the anomalous zone, gold mineralisation is hosted by
quartz-sericite schist containing quartz-limonite-pyrite veins. In the southern part of the anomaly, chlorite-sericite-quartz
schists constitute the host rock lithology. Potassic and carbonate alteration is associated with the gold anomalism. Previous
aircore drilling defined a zone of supergene gold mineralisation, including a best historic gold intersection (Sons of Gwalia Ltd
aircore drill program 1999) of 12m @ 3.57 g/t Au including 3m @ 13.3g/t Au from 42m in CWA728.
Historical drilling around CWA728 is limited to two RC holes for 319m that are reported to be of low grade. Drilling was carried
out on 150m line spacing’s north and south of the significant intersection in CWA728.
Kin believes that there is scope to identify the source of the high-grade supergene gold enrichment. Geological analysis is
planned over the coming months to further investigate the prospective host rock within the interpreted shear zone and to
delineate future drill targets.

ASX Code: KIN
Gwalia Shear Zone
The Gwalia Shear Zone also encompasses the Gwalia South, Charcoal West and Anzac Prospects. The prospects lie within a
package of sheared mafic and ultramafic rocks and sediments marginal to the Raeside Granitic Batholith. Gold anomalism is
associated with the Gwalia Shear Zone (GSZ) along the granite-greenstone contact.
Historical aircore drilling has intersected ultramafic schist, basalt and granite lithologies under approximately 20m of
transported cover. This surficial cover deepens to the south and west, in places being more than 100m thick. Weak biotite,
sericite and carbonate alteration has been encountered in previous drilling. A north-south trending chert near the base of this
sequence forms a prominent ridge in the northern part of the project area and marks the Mt George/Gwalia Shear Zones.
Gwalia South
The Gwalia South Prospect has been under evaluation; data compilation is ongoing with a large portion of drill assays on
E37/1152 and E40/283 still in the original paper format. This area is of particular interest as it is positioned along strike from
the Tower Hill and Sons of Gwalia Gold mines.
Multiple significant (>0.1 g/t Au) historical drill intercepts occur over a strike length of 5km under cover along or close to the
interpreted position of the Gwalia Shear Zone (Table 5). A preliminary review indicates further work is required. Completion of
data into digital format is of high priority to gain a better understanding of future drill targets.

Anzac
RC Drilling (hole numbers DS13RC001-DS13RC035) was carried out at the Anzac Prospect on E40/283 in November 2013 for an
advance of 2,490 m. Although all but one assay returned low tenor gold results, the drilling intersected a sequence of strongly
deformed, often highly sulphidic (pyrite and pyrrhotite) mafic to felsic volcanics where previous mapping had depicted granitic
rocks. The drill program targeted an historic Induced Polarisation (IP) anomaly, which could be explained by the amount of
sulphides encountered.
The vast majority of assays returned values <0.01g/t Au. Drill hole DS13RC027 positioned at the most north western extent of
the drilling grid returned an anomalous re-split assay of 1m @ 1.12g/t Au (from 89-90m) at the end of the hole. This drill hole
also returned anomalous silver from 16m to the end of the hole (>0.6g/t Ag) peaking at 4.70g/t Ag (88-90m) and 3.10g/t Ag
(84-88m).
The results may represent the edge of a mineralisation halo coincident with the eastern edge and the southern extensions of
the regional Gwalia Shear Zone to the west. This highly prospective structure extends into KIN’s E40/323 granted on the 13 th
December 2013 and represents a target for further drilling. As well as gold, the Anzac Prospect is also considered prospective
for volcanic hosted massive base metal sulphide (VMS) deposits.
Pelican
Drilling at the Pelican Prospect (E40/283) was completed during the period with 3 RC holes drilled for a total of 404m. Aqua
regia assay results have been previously announced (20/03/2014), and fire assays of selected intervals are presented in the
attached table 6. PL14RC003 reported several intervals with anomalous gold assays, with a best result of 3m @ 1.04 g/t Au
from 109m.

Mary Bore
An RC drilling programme has been completed at the Mary Bore Prospect (E40/320), located within Kin’s Desdemona Project
area. This was co-funded in conjunction with the WA Department of Mines and Petroleum (DMP) as part of the Royalties for
Regions Exploration incentive scheme. Under the scheme, half of all drilling costs are matched by the Department. The
programme is complete and funds have been reimbursed to Kin.
16
ASX Code: KIN
During April 2014, four RC holes (MB14RC001-004) were drilled at Mary Bore. The prospect area covers a distinct, elliptical
aeromagnetic anomaly under soil cover that had never been previously drill tested (Figure 9). Initially this was considered by
Kin to be a possible mafic-ultramafic complex prospective for nickel; however Kin’s drilling has shown this magnetic anomaly to
be related to quartz-feldspar-magnetite-hornblende granite. The 7.5km by 5km intrusive feature has been named the Mary
Bore magnetic igneous complex.
The drilling programme was primarily designed to investigate and define the rock type responsible for the strong magnetic
anomaly and also test structural lineaments within it for shear-related gold mineralisation.
Drill hole MB14RC001 was drilled vertically to 250m; the remaining holes were orientated west (-60°) and were drilled to
depths of 144m to 150m. No significant gold or base metals were encountered in the drilling except for slightly elevated
composite silver intersections:-

Principal Activities
The principal activity of the Company during the year was gold and base metals exploration.
Review of operations
The Company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange on 2 October 2013 and subsequently commenced an intensive
exploration program on three of its six project areas. Furthermore, in April 2014 the company embarked on a strategy to
become a significant gold producer focusing on Australia’s prolific Leonora region by executing a binding term sheet to acquire
the Leonora Gold Project from the Deed Administrator of Navigator Resources Limited (subject to deed of company
arrangement) (“Navigator”).
Leonora Gold Project
The project is strategically located in the north-east Goldfields, approximately 35km north-east of Leonora and 700km north-
east of Perth, and includes a number of historical gold mines in close proximity to Kin’s existing assets. Together these mines
boast total historical production of over 316,000oz at an exceptional head grade of 4.92g/t gold.
Navigator completed a pre-feasibility study for the Leonora Gold Project in 2009 based on 97% of the total mineral resource,
which demonstrated a robust project with considerable upside. In addition Navigator also completed a successful trial mining
campaign at the Bruno and Mertondale 2 pits, which underpinned substantial planning and development work.
Pit optimisation studies have been completed for each of the key deposits, metallurgical testwork has been completed with
recoveries of +95%, and potential high grade starter pits were defined to help secure project finance and reduce the capital
payback period.
Based on the strength of the work already completed, Kin Mining is targeting near term production from Leonora, with a
decision to mine expected in the fourth quarter of 2015.

The Directors identify and manage risk and consider the business of mineral exploration, by its nature, contains elements of
risk, with no guarantees of success.

Kin Mining NL
The discovery and/or acquisition of economically recoverable reserves;
Access to adequate capital;
Securing and maintaining title to interests;
Obtaining consents and approvals to undertake exploration and associated activities; and
Access to appropriately qualified and experienced operational management, contractors and other personnel.
The Directors have identified and disclosed specific risks related to the Leonora Gold Project acquisition in the Non-
Renounceable Rights Issue Prospectus as announced on 10 June 2014 and the Supplementary Prospectus as announced

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued)
Dividends
No dividends have been paid or declared since the start of the financial year and the directors do not recommend the payment
of a dividend in respect of the financial year.
Indemnification and insurance of Directors and Officers
The Company has agreed to indemnify all the directors of the Company for any liabilities to another person (other than the
Company or related body corporate) that may arise from their position as directors of the Company and its controlled entities,
except where the liability arises out of conduct involving a lack of good faith.
During the financial year the Company paid a premium in respect of a contract insuring the directors and officers of the
Company and its controlled entities against any liability incurred in the course of their duties to the extent permitted by the
Corporations Act 2001. The contract of insurance prohibits disclosure of the nature of the liability and the amount of the
premium.
Remuneration report (audited)
This report, which forms part of the directors’ report, outlines the remuneration arrangements in place for the key management
personnel (“KMP”) of Kin Mining NL for the financial year ended 30 June 2014. The information provided in this remuneration
report has been audited as required by Section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act 2001.
The remuneration report details the remuneration arrangements for KMP who are defined as those persons having authority
and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Company, directly or indirectly, including
any director (whether executive or otherwise) of the Company.
Key Management Personnel
The directors and other key management personnel of the Company during or since the end of the financial year were:
Directors:
T Grammer
T Dixon
M Fitton
G Graziano
Chairman (non-executive)
Managing Director
Non-executive Director
Non-executive Director/Company Secretary
Except as noted, the named persons held their current positions for the whole of the financial year.
Remuneration philosophy
The performance of the Company depends upon the quality of the directors and executives. The philosophy of the Company
in determining remuneration levels is to:
set competitive remuneration packages to attract and retain high calibre employees;
link executive rewards to shareholder value creation; and
establish appropriate, demanding performance hurdles for variable executive remuneration.
Remuneration governance
The Company has not formed a remuneration committee. The role of a remuneration committee is instead carried out by the
full Board in accordance with the Nomination and Remuneration Committee charter.
Non-executive director remuneration
The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level that provides the Company with the ability to attract and retain
directors of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost that is acceptable to shareholders.
The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to be approved by shareholders and the manner in which it is apportioned
amongst directors is reviewed annually. The Board considers advice from external shareholders as well as the fees paid to
non-executive directors of comparable companies when undertaking the annual review process.
Each director receives a fee for being a director of the Company. An additional fee is also paid for each Board committee on
which a director sits. The payment of additional fees for serving on a committee recognises the additional time commitment
required by directors who serve on one or more sub committees.

CORPORATE GOVERANCE STATEMENT
The Company has adopted comprehensive systems of control and accountability as the basis for the administration of
corporate governance. The Board is committed to administering the policies and procedures with openness and integrity,
pursuing the true spirit of corporate governance commensurate with the Company’s needs. To the extent they are applicable,
the Company has adopted the Eight Essential Corporate Governance Principles and Best Practice Recommendations
(“Recommendations”) as published by ASX Corporate Governance Council.
The Company’s Corporate Governance policies and its Securities Trading Policy are available on the Company’s website. As
the Company’s activities develop in size, nature and scope, the size of the Board and the implementation of additional
corporate governance structures will be given further consideration.
Principle 1 – Lay solid foundations for management and oversight
The Board and management have formalised their respective roles and responsibilities and the functions reserved to the
Board and management. The Board has established and adopted a Board Charter for this purpose.
The Board is responsible for oversight of the management and the overall corporate governance of the Company including
its strategic direction, establishing goals for management and monitoring the achievement of those goals with a view to
optimising company performance and the protection and enhancement of long-term shareholder value.
The Board has also established a Nomination and Remuneration Committee Charter which, amongst other functions, guides
the Board in its evaluation of the performance of senior executives and encourages an appropriate mix of skills, experience,
expertise and diversity on the Board.
The role of management is the efficient and effective operation of the activities of the Company in accordance with the
objectives, strategies and policies determined by the Board. The performance of senior management is reviewed annually in
a formal process with the executive’s performance assessed against the company and personal benchmarks. Benchmarks
are agreed with the executives and reviews are based upon the degree of achievement against those benchmarks.
Principle 2 – Structure the Board to add value
The Board has been formed such that it has effective composition, size and commitment to adequately discharge its
responsibilities and duties. Directors are appointed based on the specific skills required by the Company and on their
experience, decision-making and judgement skills.
The Company has adopted a Nomination and Remuneration Committee Charter which encourages a transparent Board
selection process in searching for and selecting new directors to the Board and having regard to any gaps in the skills and
experience of the directors of the Board and ensuring that a diverse range of candidates is considered. The Board composition
is reviewed on an ongoing basis with regard to the activities of the Company and the skills sets required to support those
activities.
A separate nomination committee has not been formed. The role of the nomination committee is carried out by the full Board
in accordance with the Nomination and Remuneration Committee Charter. The Board considers that at this stage, no
efficiencies or other benefits would be gained by establishing a separate committee.
The composition of the Board is determined using the following principles:
A minimum of three directors, with a broad range of expertise
Directors should bring characteristics which allow a mix of qualifications, skills, experience, expertise and diversity
to the Board
The skills, experience, expertise and tenure of each director are disclosed in the Directors’ Report within this Annual Report.
In assessing the independence of directors, the Board follows the ASX guidelines and will consider whether the director:
Is a substantial shareholder of the Company or an officer of, or otherwise associated directly with, a substantial
shareholder of the Company
Is employed, or has previously been employed in executive capacity by the Company or another group member,
and there has not been a period of at least three years between ceasing such employment and serving the on board
Has within the last three years been a principal of a material professional advisor or a material consultant to the
Company or another group member, or an employee materially associated with the service provided
Is a material supplier or customer of the Company or another group member, or an officer of or otherwise associated
directly or indirectly with a material supplier or customer
Has a material contractual relationship with the Company or another group member other than as director of the
Company
29Kin Mining NL
CORPORATE GOVERANCE STATEMENT (continued)
The Board does not have a majority of independent directors. It is comprised of three non-executive directors and the Board
is confident that each non-executive director brings independent judgement to the Board’s decisions. The Board considers
the existing structure and skill sets of the directors’ appropriate given the small scale of the Company’s enterprise and the
associated economic restrictions the scale of operations places on the Company. The existing structure is aimed at
maximising the financial position of the Company by keeping its operating costs to a minimum.
Where additional skills are considered necessary for specific purposes, access is made to independent professional advice
at the expense of the Company.
Principle 3 – Promote ethical and responsible decision making
All Directors, managers and employees are expected to act with the utmost integrity and objectivity, striving at all times to
enhance the reputation and performance of the Company. The Board has established a Code of Conduct to guide the
Directors, managers, employees and officers of the Company with respect to matters relevant to the Company’s legal and
ethical obligations and the expectations of stakeholders.
The Code of Conduct requires officers and employees to avoid or ensure proper management of conflicts of interest, to not
use confidential information for personal gain and to act in fair, honest and respectful manner. The Board has procedures in
place for reporting any matters that give rise to unethical practices or conflicts between the interests of a director or senior
executive and those of the Company.
Securities Trading Policy
The Board encourages directors and employees to hold shares in the Company to align their interest with the interests of all
Shareholders. The Company has adopted a Securities Trading Policy which guides directors, employees or contractors in
trading the Company’s securities in accordance with ASX Listing Rules. Trading the Company’s shares is prohibited under
certain circumstances and a director, employee or contractor must not deal in the Company’s securities at any time when he
or she is in possession of information which, if generally available, may affect the price of the Company’s shares.
The Policy sets out the following information:
(a) closed periods in which directors, employees and contractors of the Company must not deal in the Company’s
securities;
(b) trading in the Company’s securities which is not subject to the Company’s Trading Policy; and
(c)
the procedures for obtaining written clearance for trading in exceptional circumstances.
Principle 4 – Safeguard integrity in financial reporting
The Directors require the Managing Director and external company auditors to state in writing to the Board, that the
Company’s financial reports present a true and fair view, in all material respects, of the Company’s financial condition and
operational results and are in accordance with relevant accounting standards.
A separate audit committee has not been formed. However, the Company has adopted an Audit Committee Charter. The
role of the audit committee is carried out by the full Board in accordance with the Audit Committee Charter. The Board
considers that given its size, no efficiencies or other benefits would be gained by establishing a separate audit committee.
Principle 5 – Make timely and balanced disclosure
The Directors are committed to keeping the market fully informed of material developments to ensure compliance with the
ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act. The Directors have established a written policy and procedure to ensure
compliance with the disclosure requirements of the ASX Listing Rules. At each meeting of the directors, consideration is given
as to whether notice of material information concerning the Company, including its financial position, performance, ownership
and governance has been made to all investors.
Under the policy the Company’s employees and contractors must disclose any relevant information which comes to their
attention and is believed to potentially be material to the Company Secretary or Executive Director.
Principle 6 – Respect the rights of Shareholders
The Directors have established a communications strategy to promote effective communication with Shareholders and
encourage effective participation at general meetings. As well as ensuring timely and appropriate access to information for
all investors via announcements to the ASX, the Company will also ensure that all relevant documents are released on the
Company’s website.
Communication with Shareholders is achieved through the distribution of the following information:
The Annual Report is distributed to Shareholders;
The Half Yearly Report is available on the Company’s website
30Kin Mining NL
CORPORATE GOVERANCE STATEMENT (continued)
Regular reports and announcements are released through the ASX
The Annual General Meeting and other meetings called by the Company to obtain Shareholder approval as
appropriate
Investor information released through the Company’s website
Principle 7 – Recognise and manage risk
The Board is responsible for overseeing the risk management function and ensuring that risks and opportunities are identified
on a timely basis. The Directors have established a Risk Management Policy regarding the oversight and management of
material business risks.
Responsibility for the control and risk management is delegated to the appropriate level of management within the Company,
with the Executive Director having ultimate responsibility to the Board for monitoring the risk management and control
framework. Risk analysis and evaluation occurs on an ongoing basis in the course of the activities of the Company.
Management is responsible for the development of risk mitigation plans and the implementation of risk reduction strategies.
The Executive Director reports on a regular basis to the Board on the areas of their responsibility, including material business
risks and provides an annual written report to the Board summarising the effectiveness of the Company’s management of
material business risks.
Principle 8 – Remunerate fairly and responsibly
A separate remuneration committee has not been formed. However, the Company has adopted a Nomination and
Remuneration Committee Charter. The role of the remuneration committee is carried out by the full Board in accordance with
the Nomination and Remuneration Committee charter. The charter details how the Board fulfils its duties in regards to the
Company’s remuneration plans, policies and practices, including the compensation of non-executive directors, executive
directors and management. The Board considers that at this stage, no efficiencies or other benefits would be gained by
establishing a separate committee.
The Board has provided disclosure within this Annual Report in relation to Directors’ remuneration and remuneration policies
in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act. There are no retirement schemes or retirement benefits
other than statutory benefits for non-executive directors.
The Company has a policy to prohibit its directors and employees, who participate in an equity-based incentive plan of the
Company, from entering into transactions which would have the effect of hedging or otherwise transferring to any other person
the risk of any fluctuation in the value of any unvested entitlement in the Company’s securities. Directors and employees are
encouraged to take sufficient professional advice in relation to their individual financial position.
The payment of bonuses, options and other incentive payments are reviewed by the Board annually as part of the review of
executive remuneration. All bonuses, options and incentives must be linked to predetermined performance criteria. The Board
can exercise its discretion in relation to approving incentives, bonuses and options, given they are justified by reference to
measurable performance criteria.
The Company’s Share Trading Policy is available on its website.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparation
(a)
These financial statements are general purpose financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the
requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Accounting Standards and Interpretations and comply with other requirements of
the law.
The financial statements comprise the financial statements of Kin Mining NL. For the purposes of preparing the financial
statements, the Company is a for-profit entity.
The accounting policies detailed below have been consistently applied to all of the years presented unless otherwise stated.
The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis. Historical cost is based on the fair values of the
consideration given in exchange for goods and services.
The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars
The Company is a listed public Company, incorporated in Australia and operating in Australia. The Company’s principal activity
is gold and base metals exploration.
Adoption of new and revised standards
(b)
Standards and Interpretations applicable to 30 June 2014
In the year ended 30 June 2014, the directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued
by the AASB that are relevant to the Company and effective for the current annual reporting period.
As a result of this review, the directors have determined that there is no material impact of the new and revised Standards and
Interpretations on the Company and, therefore, no material change is necessary to Company accounting policies.
Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted
The directors have also reviewed all new Standards and Interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective for the
year ended 30 June 2014. As a result of this review the directors have determined that there is no material impact, of the new
and revised Standards and Interpretations on the Company and, therefore, no change is necessary to Company accounting
policies.
Statement of compliance
(c)
The financial report was authorised for issue on 30 September 2014.
The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards, which include Australian equivalents to International
Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report, comprising the financial
statements and notes thereto, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
Critical accounting estimates and judgements
(d)
The application of accounting policies requires the use of judgements, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of
assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based
on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions are recognised in the period in which
the estimate is revised if it affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both
current and future periods.
Recovery of deferred tax assets
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences when management considers that it is probable that
sufficient future tax profits will be available to utilise those temporary differences. Significant management judgement is
required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of
future taxable profits.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Going concern
(e)
The Company has a working capital surplus at balance date of $150,957, including a cash balance of $173,355.
Subsequent to year end, the Company announced that it had secured a $3m cornerstone investment which would assist it in
completing the acquisition of the Leonora Gold Project. The investment is subject to shareholder approval and is also
conditional upon the company raising a minimum of $1m via the current non-renounceable rights issue. These funds will
enable the Company to meet the balance of the acquisition cost of the Leonora Gold Project, namely $2.5m, and for working
capital. The Company is seeking to raise a maximum of $5.8m via the rights issue.
The Company is dependent on the rights issue being successful to the extent of raising the minimum amount required to
secure the cornerstone investment and for required working capital to fund ongoing exploration expenditure and general
overheads. The Company is confident that this will be achieved.
Should the required funds not be raised to the extent necessary, there is a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt
as to whether the Company will continue as a going concern and, therefore, whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its
liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.
Segment reporting
(f)
Operating segments are identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Company that are reviewed by
the chief operating decision maker (deemed to be the Board of Directors) in order to allocate resources to the segment and
assess its performance. During the year, the Company operated predominantly in one business and geographical segment
being mineral exploration in Australia. Accordingly, under the “management approach” outlined, only one operating segment
has been identified and no further disclosure is required in the notes.
Revenue recognition
(g)
Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of
returns, trade allowances, rebates and amounts collected on behalf of third parties.
Interest income
Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company
and the amount of revenue can be reliably measured. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal
outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable
Government grants
(h)
Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be
received and the Company will comply with all attached conditions.
Government grants relating to costs are deferred and recognised in profit or loss over the period necessary to match them
with the costs that they are intended to compensate.
Government grants relating to the purchase of assets are deducted from the carrying amount of that asset.
Income tax
(i)
The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the
applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to
temporary difference and to unused tax losses.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the
reporting period in the countries where the Company operates and generates taxable income. Management periodically
evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation.
It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from
or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or
substantively enacted by the balance date.
Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities
and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Kin Mining NL
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Income Tax (continued)
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except:
when the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of asset or liability in a transaction that is not a
business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or
loss; or
when the taxable temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint
ventures, and the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the
temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and
unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary
differences and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:
when the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of
an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither
the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or
when the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests in joint
ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary
difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary
difference can be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance date and reduced to the extent that it is no
longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.
Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance date and are recognised to the extent that it has
become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset
is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the
balance date.
Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets
against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation
authority.
Other taxes
(j)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:
when the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which
case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable;
and
receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST included.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables
in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from
investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority are classified as operating
cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation
authority.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Impairment of tangible and intangible assets other than goodwill
(k)
The Company assesses at each balance date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such
indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company makes an estimate of the asset’s
recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is
determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from
other assets or the company’s assets and the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In such
cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash-generating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount of
an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired
and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate
that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses
relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset
unless the asset is carried at revalued amount (in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease).
An assessment is also made at each balance date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment
losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously
recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s
recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is
increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been
determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is
recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation
increase. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying
amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life.
Cash and cash equivalents
(l)
Cash comprises cash at bank and in hand. Cash equivalents are short term, highly liquid investments that are readily
convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Bank overdrafts are
shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the statement of financial position.
For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined
above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.
Trade and other receivables
(m)
Trade receivables are measured on initial recognition at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using
the effective interest rate method, less any allowance for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement
within periods ranging from 30 days to 60 days.
Impairment of trade receivables is continually reviewed and those that are considered to be uncollectible are written off by
reducing the carrying amount directly. An allowance account is used when there is objective evidence that the Company will
not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original contractual terms. Factors considered by the Company in
making this determination include known significant financial difficulties of the debtor, review of financial information and
significant delinquency in making contractual payments to the Company. The impairment allowance is set equal to the
difference between the carrying amount of the receivable and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at
the original effective interest rate. Where receivables are short-term discounting is not applied in determining the allowance.
The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income within other expenses. When a
trade receivable for which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is
written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other
expenses in the statement of comprehensive income.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(n)
Financial assets
Financial assets in the scope of AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement are classified as either
financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, or available-for-sale
investments, as appropriate. When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value plus, in the case
of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs. The Company determines the
classification of its financial assets after initial recognition and, when allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this designation at
each financial year-end. All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade date i.e. the date
that the Company commits to purchase the asset. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets
under contracts that require delivery of the assets within the period established generally by regulation or convention in the
marketplace.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets classified as held for trading are included in the category ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’.
Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Derivatives
are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments. Gains or losses on
investments held for trading are recognised in profit or loss.
Held-to-maturity investments
Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity are classified as held-to-maturity when
the Company has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Investments intended to be held for an undefined period
are not included in this classification. Investments that are intended to be held-to-maturity, such as bonds, are subsequently
measured at amortised cost. This cost is computed as the amount initially recognised minus principal repayments, plus or
minus the cumulative amortisation using the effective interest method of any difference between the initially recognised amount
and the maturity amount. This calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are
an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and all other premiums and discounts. For investments carried
at amortised cost, gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the investments are derecognised or impaired, as
well as through the amortisation process.
If the Company were to sell other than an insignificant amount of held-to-maturity financial assets, the whole category would
be tainted and reclassified as available-for-sale.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active
market. Such assets are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognised in
profit or loss when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.
Available-for-sale investments
Available-for-sale investments are those non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-for-sale or are not
classified as any of the three preceding categories. After initial recognition available-for sale investments are measured at fair
value with gains or losses being recognised as a separate component of equity until the investment is derecognised or until
the investment is determined to be impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously reported in equity is
recognised in profit or loss.
The fair value of investments that are actively traded in organised financial markets is determined by reference to quoted
market bid prices at the close of business on the balance date. For investments with no active market, fair value is determined
using valuation techniques. Such techniques include using recent arm’s length market transactions, reference to the current
market value of another instrument that is substantially the same, discounted cash flow analysis and option pricing models.
Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities
(o)
Financial assets
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a Company of similar financial assets) is
derecognised when:
the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired;
the Company retains the right to receive cash flows from the asset, but has assumed an obligation to pay them in full
without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; or
the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset and either:

has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or
has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred
control of the asset.
When the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset and has neither transferred nor retained
substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognised to the extent of
the Company’s continuing involvement in the asset. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the
transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of
consideration received that the Company could be required to repay.
When continuing involvement takes the form of a written and/or purchased option (including a cash-settled option or similar
provision) on the transferred asset, the extent of the Company’s continuing involvement is the amount of the transferred asset
that the Company may repurchase, except that in the case of a written put option (including a cash-settled option or similar
Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities (continued)
provision) on an asset measured at fair value, the extent of the Company’s continuing involvement is limited to the lower of
the fair value of the transferred asset and the option exercise price.
Financial liabilities
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms
of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original
liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in profit or
loss.
Impairment of financial assets
(p)
The Company assesses at each balance date whether a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired.
Financial assets carried at amortised cost
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables carried at amortised cost has been incurred,
the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated
future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original
effective interest rate (i.e. the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition). The carrying amount of the asset is reduced
either directly or through use of an allowance account. The amount of the loss is recognised in profit or loss.
The Company first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are
individually significant, and individually or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If it is determined
that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, the
asset is included in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and that group of financial assets is
collectively assessed for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is
or continues to be recognised are not included in a collective assessment of impairment.
If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an
event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed. Any subsequent
reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss, to the extent that the carrying value of the asset does not exceed
its amortised cost at the reversal date.
Financial assets carried at cost
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred on an unquoted equity instrument that is not carried
at fair value (because its fair value cannot be reliably measured), or on a derivative asset that is linked to and must be settled
by delivery of such an unquoted equity instrument, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s
carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the current market rate of return for a
similar financial asset. Such impairment loss shall not be reversed in subsequent periods.

Impairment of financial assets
(p)
Available-for-sale investments
If there is objective evidence that an available-for-sale investment is impaired, an amount comprising the difference between
its cost (net of any principal repayment and amortisation) and its current fair value, less any impairment loss previously
recognised in profit or loss, is transferred from equity to the statement of comprehensive income. Reversals of impairment
losses for equity instruments classified as available-for-sale are not recognised in profit. Reversals of impairment losses for
debt instruments are reversed through profit or loss if the increase in an instrument's fair value can be objectively related to
an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in profit or loss.
Property, plant and equipment
(q)
Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Such cost
includes the cost of replacing parts that are eligible for capitalisation when the cost of replacing the parts is incurred. Similarly,
when each major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a
replacement only if it is eligible for capitalisation.
Land and buildings are measured at fair value less accumulated depreciation on buildings and less any impairment losses
recognised after the date of the revaluation.
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets is depreciated on a diminishing value basis over their useful lives to the Company
commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets
are:
Office equipment
Motor vehicles
10% to 50%
25% to 30%
The assets' residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial
year end.
Impairment
The carrying values of plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment at each balance date, with recoverable amount being
estimated when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.
The recoverable amount of plant and equipment is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing
value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects
current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.
For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, recoverable amount is determined for the cash-
generating unit to which the asset belongs, unless the asset's value in use can be estimated to approximate fair value.
An impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash-generating units exceeds its estimated recoverable amount.
The asset or cash-generating unit is then written down to its recoverable amount.
For plant and equipment, impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income in a separate line item.
Derecognition and disposal
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are
expected from its use or disposal.
Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the
carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the year the asset is derecognised.
Trade and other payables
(r)
Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised cost and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to
the Company prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Company becomes obliged to make
future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. Trade and other payables are presented as current
liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months.

Employee leave benefits
(s)
Wages, salaries, annual leave and long service leave
Liabilities accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and long service leave expected to be settled
within 12 months of the balance date are recognised in other payables in respect of employees’ services up to the balance
date. They are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Liabilities for non-accumulating
sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and are measured at the rates paid or payable.
Liabilities accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and long service leave not expected to be
settled within 12 months of the balance date are recognised in non-current other payables in respect of employees’ services
up to the balance date. They are measured as the present value of the estimated future outflows to be made by the Company.
Long service leave
The liability for long service leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of
expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the balance date. Consideration is
given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures, and period of service. Expected future
payments are discounted using market yields at the balance date on national government bonds with terms to maturity and
currencies that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
Issued capital
(t)
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown
in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or
options for the acquisition of a new business are not included in the cost of acquisition as part of the purchase consideration.
Earnings/loss per share
(u)
Basic earnings/loss per share is calculated as net profit/loss attributable to members of the parent, adjusted to exclude any
costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average number of
ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
Diluted earnings/loss per share is calculated as net profit/loss attributable to members of the parent, adjusted for:
costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends;
the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised
as expenses; and
other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of
potential ordinary shares; divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary
shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
Provision for restoration and rehabilitation
(v)
A provision for restoration and rehabilitation is recognised when there is a present obligation as a result of development
activities undertaken, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount
of the provision can be measured reliably. The estimated future obligations include the costs of abandoning sites, removing
facilities and restoring the affected areas.
The provision for future restoration costs is the best estimate of the present value of the expenditure required to settle the
restoration obligation at the balance date. Future restoration costs are reviewed annually and any changes in the estimate are
reflected in the present value of the restoration provision at each balance date.
The initial estimate of the restoration and rehabilitation provision is capitalised into the cost of the related asset and amortised
on the same basis as the related asset, unless the present obligation arises from the production of inventory in the period, in
which case the amount is included in the cost of production for the period. Changes in the estimate of the provision for
restoration and rehabilitation are treated in the same manner, except that the unwinding of the effect of discounting on the
provision is recognised as a finance cost rather than being capitalised into the cost of the related asset.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Exploration and evaluation expenditure
(w)
Exploration and evaluation expenditures in relation to each separate area of interest are recognised as an exploration and
evaluation asset in the year in which they are incurred where the following conditions are satisfied:
the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and
at least one of the following conditions is also met:
-
-
the exploration and evaluation expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and
exploration of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale; or
exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not at the balance date reached a stage which
permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and
active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing.
Exploration and evaluation assets are initially measured at cost and include acquisition of rights to explore, studies, exploratory
drilling, trenching and sampling and associated activities and an allocation of depreciation and amortised of assets used in
exploration and evaluation activities. General and administrative costs are only included in the measurement of exploration
and evaluation costs where they are related directly to operational activities in a particular area of interest.
Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment when facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying
amount of an exploration and evaluation asset may exceed its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of the exploration
and evaluation asset (for the cash generating unit(s) to which it has been allocated being no larger than the relevant area of
interest) is estimated to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses,
the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the
increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss
been recognised for the asset in previous years.
Where a decision has been made to proceed with development in respect of a particular area of interest, the relevant
exploration and evaluation asset is tested for impairment and the balance is then reclassified to development.

NOTE 12: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Capital risk management
The Company manages its capital to ensure that it 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 Company’s overall strategy remains unchanged from 2013.
The capital structure of the Company consists of cash and cash equivalents and equity attributable to equity holders of the
Company, comprising issued capital, reserves and retained earnings.
Operating cash flows are used to maintain and expand operations, as well as to make routine expenditures such as general
administrative outgoings.
Gearing levels are reviewed by the Board on a regular basis in line with its target gearing ratio, the cost of capital and the risks
associated with each class of capital.

The fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying values
Financial risk management objectives
The Company is exposed to market risk (including fair value interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk, liquidity risk and cash
flow interest rate risk.
The Company seeks to minimise the effect of these risks, by using derivative financial instruments to hedge these risk
exposures. The use of financial derivatives is governed by the Company’s policies approved by the board of directors, which
provide written principles on foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, the use of financial derivatives and non-
derivative financial instruments, and the investment of excess liquidity. Compliance with policies and exposure limits is
reviewed by management on a continuous basis. The Company does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including
derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes.
Market risk
There has been no change to the Company’s exposure to market risks or the manner in which it manages and measures the
risk from the previous period.
Interest rate risk management
The Company’s exposures to interest rate on financial assets and financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity risk
management section of this note.
Equity price risk
The Company is not exposed to any equity price risk as it has no investments in such assets.
Credit risk management
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counter party will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the
Company. The Company has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient
collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Company only transacts with
entities that are rated the equivalent of investment grade and above. This information is supplied by independent rating
agencies where available and, if not available, the Company uses publicly available financial information and its own trading
record to rate its major customers.
50
Kin Mining NL
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014
Note 12: Financial Instruments (continued)
Credit risk management
The Company’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of
transactions concluded is spread amongst approved counterparties. Credit exposure is controlled by counterparty limits that
are reviewed and approved by the risk management committee annually.
The Company does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any Company of counterparties
having similar characteristics. The credit risk on liquid funds and derivative financial instruments is limited because the
counterparties are banks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit rating agencies.
The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any allowance for losses, represents the
Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk without taking account of the value of any collateral obtained.
Liquidity risk management
Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the board of directors, who have built an appropriate liquidity
risk management framework for the management of the Company’s short, medium and long-term funding and liquidity
management requirements. The Company 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
The following table details the Company’s and the Company’s expected contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial
liabilities. These have been drawn up based on undiscounted contractual maturities of the financial liabilities based on the
earliest date the Company can be required to repay. The tables include both interest and principal cash flows.

Dated this 30th day of September 2014
53INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the members of Kin Mining NL
Report on the Financial Report
We have audited the accompanying financial report of Kin Mining NL (“the company”), which
comprises the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2014, the statement of comprehensive
income, the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows for the year then ended,
notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and
the directors’ declaration for Kin Mining NL.
Directors’ responsibility 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 is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In Note 1(c), the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101:
Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial report complies with International Financial
Reporting Standards.
Auditor’s responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted
our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply
with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures
in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or
error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the
company’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors,
as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.
Our audit did not involve an analysis of the prudence of business decisions made by directors or
management.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations
Act 2001.

54Auditor’s opinion
In our opinion:
(a) the financial report of Kin Mining NL is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:
(i) giving a true and fair view of the company’s financial position as at 30 June 2014 and of its
performance for the year ended on that date; and
(ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001;
and
(b) the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in
Note 1(c).
Emphasis of matter
Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 1(e) to the financial report which states that
the Company is dependent on the success of the current capital raising to raise the required funds in
order to secure the cornerstone investment and for required working capital to fund ongoing
exploration expenditure and general overheads. Should this capital raising not be successful in
raising the required funds, there is a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt as to
whether the Company will continue as a going concern and, therefore, whether it will realise its
assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the
financial report.
Report on the Remuneration Report
We have audited the remuneration report included in the directors’ report for the year ended 30 June
2014. 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.
Auditor’s opinion
In our opinion the remuneration report of Kin Mining NL for the year ended 30 June 2014 complies
with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
