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.

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.

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). 

Figure 5 - Regional Geological Interpretation of the Desdemona Project highlighting target areas.

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. 

Figure 6 - Cross section at Kingfisher highlighting a strong secondary nickel, copper, PGE enrichment zone at the weathering  
interface and the lack of drilling down dip along prospective basal contact 

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.

ASX Code: KIN 

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.

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).

13ASX Code: KIN 

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.

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.

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.

Review of financial conditions 

Risk management 
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.   

22DIRECTORS’ REPORT (continued)

The success of these activities is, amongst other things, dependent upon: 

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

Company and its controlled entities against any liability incurred in the course of their duties to the extent permitted by 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.

undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in Code of Conduct APES 110: Code of Ethics 
for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards Board.

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

29Kin 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

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.

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.

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.

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;

without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; or

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.

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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014 

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.

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.

Director 

______________________________ 
Dated this 30th day of September 2014 

53INDEPENDENT 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.

54Auditor’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.
