Review of Operations
Magmatic Resources Limited (“Magmatic” or the “Company”) (ASX:MAG) is a New South Wales‐focused
copper and gold explorer that listed in May 2017, following the acquisition from Gold Fields Limited of an
advanced portfolio in the East Lachlan region of New South Wales (Figure 1).
Figure 1. Location of Magmatic’s East Lachlan Projects (Resources from Phillips, 2017; CMOC, 2023; Evolution, 2023;
Newcrest 2023; Alkane 2023; 2024)
Exploration in the East Lachlan Region
The Company has three 100%‐owned projects comprising six licences in the East Lachlan region of New
South Wales – namely Myall, Wellington North and Parkes (Figure 1).
The East Lachlan region is a globally significant gold‐copper province with an endowment of more than 80
million ounces of gold and 13 million tonnes of copper (Phillips, 2017). It is most famous for Newmont’s
world class gold‐copper porphyry cluster at the Cadia Valley, where the Cadia East Mine represents
Australia’s largest producer. In addition, the Northparkes copper‐gold porphyry deposits (China
Evolution/Sumitomo) and Cowal gold deposit (Evolution Mining) represent significant long‐life mining
operations.

The Company’s projects represent strategic holdings and target portfolios adjacent to major mining
operations and recent discoveries.
Ongoing exploration activity, including recent high impact diamond drilling, indicates strong similarities
between the Company’s Myall Project and the Northparkes Mining District, located 50 kilometres to the
south. The definition of a 14.7 million ounce‐equivalent Resource for the Boda/Kaiser gold‐copper discovery
(ASX ALK 29 April 2024) has highlighted the value of Magmatic’s dominant surrounding tenure position and
target portfolio at its Wellington North Project. The Company also holds a strategic position in the Parkes
Fault Zone (Parkes Project), immediately south from Alkane’s Tomingley Gold Operations and recent Roswell
and San Antonio discoveries.
Myall Project (Copper‐Gold)
Magmatic Resources Limited 100% (FMG Resources Farming‐in)
The Myall Project covers the northern extension of the Junee ‐ Narromine Volcanic Belt, located ~50km
north and along strike from the Northparkes copper‐gold Mining District (Evolution/Sumitomo, Figure 2).

Following extensive diamond drilling conducted throughout the 2022‐2023 financial year, a maiden Inferred
Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for the Corvette and Kingswood deposits was announced early in the
period (ASX MAG 11 July 2023). Modelling for the MRE was restricted to two zones of higher density drilling
associated with the Corvette and Kingswood deposits and contained total Inferred Resources of 110Mt at
0.27% Cu, 0.07g/t Au, 0.8g/t Ag & 10ppm Mo. The Inferred Resources have a contained metal content of
293kt copper, 237koz gold & 2.8Moz silver, equating to 354Kt copper metal‐equivalent.
In the December quarter the Company completed a follow‐up drilling program designed to test six key target
areas surrounding the Corvette and Kingswood Mineral Resource Estimate (ASX MAG 6 December 2023). The
main target for the program was shallow mineralisation immediately below the transported cover, with the
areas of interest contained within an extensive zone of high‐tenor basement copper anomalism.
Eight holes were completed in the program for 1,956 metres across the key target areas (Figure 3). These
drill holes ranged in depth between 233 and 258 metres, with total core lengths averaging slightly over 100
metres for each hole.

Shallow copper mineralisation was intersected at all six targets tested, with strongest results from a
previously untested area approximately 100 metres to the west of Corvette (Figures 3 & 4):

Highly encouraging copper/molybdenum zones were also encountered in all five of the other target areas
tested, with multiple holes ending in mineralisation (full details, including details of the Cu‐equivalent
parameters, can be found in ASX MAG 6 December 2023):
23MYDD428
101.6 metres at 0.20% CuEq, 0.16% Cu & 0.04g/t Au from 131.7m (to end of hole)
incl. 5.8 metres at 0.41% CuEq, 0.28% Cu & 0.16g/t Au from 131.7m
23MYDD430
41.3 metres at 0.21% CuEq, 0.19% Cu, 0.03g/t Au & 23ppm Mo from 213.5m (to end of hole)
incl. 4.0 metres at 0.41% CuEq, 0.37% Cu, 0.03g/t Au & 139ppm Mo from 242m

incl. 5.1 metres at 0.49% CuEq, 0.43% Cu & 0.05g/t Au from 220m
Following this drilling program the Company released a revised geological model that highlighted the
exceptional untested copper potential for the Corvette and Kingswood system (ASX MAG 23 January 2024).
The revised interpretation showed Corvette is predominantly associated with a moderate east‐dipping and
north to north‐northwest striking breccia zones at the contact of an earlier monzonite body (Figure 5).
The modelling explained the results seen in previous drilling at Corvette and for the first time predicted the
strike, dip and approximate true‐width of the system. Due to the alignment of Magmatic and previous drill
holes, very little of the extensive Corvette target zone has been tested and is almost completed unexplored
along strike in both directions (Figure 6). The revised model identified follow‐up targets and suggested the
potential for rapid growth of the mineralised system with limited additional exploration.

zone that has actually been tested by diamond drilling, with the untested portion outlined in red (after ASX MAG 23 January 2024).
Late in the March Quarter the Company announced it had entered into a Farm‐in and Joint Venture
Agreement (FJV) over the Myall Project with FMG Resources Pty Ltd (Fortescue), a wholly‐owned subsidiary
of Fortescue Limited (ASX MAG 8 March 2024). THE FJV will see Fortescue spend up to $14M over six years
to earn up to 75% joint venture interest in the project. Fortescue may earn an initial 51% interest by
incurring $6M in expenditure in the initial earn‐in period of up to four years, including a minimum
expenditure of $3M and minimum 3,000 metres of drilling in the first two years. Magmatic will be the
operator during the initial earn‐in period of up to four years and is entitles to a 10% operator’s fee.
Following the execution of the FJV, an Exploration Committee was formed between Magmatic and
Fortescue to direct exploration, with agreement reached for a two‐phase work program for the 2024/2025
Financial Year (ASX MAG 11 June 2024). Phase 1 of the program comprises a historic core and drill chip re‐
assay programme to provide expanded coverage of multi‐element geochemical and hyperspectral data not
previously collected. The resampling program focusses on Corvette/Kingswood in the west and at the
Monaro Prospect in the east. The second phase is set to comprise six diamond holes of 400‐500m depth in
the greater Corvette Kingwood region (Figure 7), with most on‐ground exploration work (including drilling)
expected to be completed by the end of 2024.

Wellington North Project (Gold‐Copper)
Magmatic Resources Limited 100%
Magmatic’s 100%‐owned Wellington North Project covers the northern extension of the Molong Volcanic
Belt, located north of Australia’s largest gold producer at Cadia (Newmont) and immediately adjacent to
Alkane’s recent 14.7Moz gold‐equivalent Boda and Kaiser porphyry gold‐copper discovery (ASX ALK 29 April
2024).
The Wellington North Project includes the historic Bodangora Gold Field, where 230,000 ounces at ~26g/t Au
were produced between 1869‐1917 (ASX MAG 17 May 2017) alongside an extensive portfolio of Boda‐style
porphyry gold‐copper and Bodangora‐style high grade gold targets (Figure 8). Encouraging porphyry‐style
mineralisation has been intercepted in drilling at multiple locations at Wellington North, including:

the proximity to the 14.8Moz AuEq Boda‐Kaiser discovery (ASX ALK 27 February 2023).
Exploration activities at Wellington accelerated towards the end of the period across multiple target areas.
A soil geochemistry program was completed at the Boda Southwest Prospect (Figure 9), located immediately
adjacent to the Boda 4 prospect area flagged by Alkane Resources (ASX ALK 14 December 2023 & 21 June
2024). A total of 232 samples were taken as a part of this program, based on a nominal 50 x 100 metre grid.
The assay results for the program highlighted a coherent, north‐northwest trending zone of copper
anomalism (>100ppm) with variable gold anomalism (>10ppb) focused in the west (ASX MAG 5 July 2024).
The southwestern area of the sampling grid was particularly anomalous, with gold reaching maximum values
of 0.92g/t in sample WNSL0964 and copper reaching 201ppm in sample WNSL0927 (Figure 9).

An air core program was also completed in a sparsely explored area north and northwest of the Lady Ilse
Prospect (ASX MAG 24 July 2024), comprising 64 air core holes for 598 metres (Figures 8 & 10). The holes
were designed to test the geochemistry of basement through the shallow cover at the prospect, with holes
ranging from 1 to 30 metres in depth and averaging just over 9 metres in depth. Encouraging gold‐copper
mineralisation was intersected in multiple holes from this program, including:
24WNAC0820
17 metres at 0.37g/t Au & 0.10% Cu from 6m to end of hole
incl. 6 metres at 0.80g/t Au & 0.15% Cu from 12m

with selected results from the current program (bold) and from previous RC and diamond drilling (see ASX MAG 24 July 2024 for full
details).
The results from 24WNAC0820 were particularly significant, representing the best copper and second‐best
gold interval returned from nearly 150 air core holes drilled in the Lady Ilse region. The mineralisation in this
hole remains untested to the west (Figure 10), with ground conditions restricting access to this area during
the recent program.
The latest work at Lady Ilse has nearly doubled the footprint of the system, extending contiguous gold and
copper anomalism to over 1,200 metres from south to north. Elevated gold and copper values were also
intersected in the northernmost line of air core holes (Figure 10), with the trend open to the north.
Further to the west at on the Wellington North Project, inclement weather through mid‐July delayed the
planned commencement of an RC drilling program at Rose Hill (Figure 8), with the program still scheduled
be completed as when ground conditionals allow access. Rose Hill hosts intrusion‐related mineralisation
including a previous intersection of 71m at 0.43% Cu, 0.30g/t Au & 57ppm Mo from surface (ASX Mag 17 May
2017).

Parkes Project (Gold)
Magmatic Resources Limited 100%
The Parkes Project comprises two exploration licences located within the Parkes Fault Zone (Figure 11),
approximately 30 kilometres south from Alkane’s Tomingley Gold Operations and recently defined Resources
at Roswell and San Antonio (ASX ALK 13 September 2023). Several existing gold intersections are equivalent
to early‐stage exploration results at Alkane’s Tomingley deposits, including:
16m at 1.22 g/t Au from 13m (MM33) McGregors (ASX MAG 17 May 2017)
18m at 0.72 g/t Au from 33m (MM33) McGregors (ASX MAG 17 May 2017)

Late in the period work began on the Black Ridge prospect at the Parkes Project (ASX MAG 5 July 2024),
including re‐establishment of Landholder Access Agreements and initial mapping and sampling. Significant
work has continued at Black Ridge into the current Financial Year, with a six‐kilometre zone of copper‐gold‐
silver anomalism established parallel to the Parkes Thrust (ASX MAG 1 August 2024). Results from rock chip
sampling of small scale historic workings have shown grades of up to 6.5% copper, with multiple other
elevated copper results returned over a broad area (Figure 12).

Material Business Risks
The Group makes every effort to identify materials risks and to manage these effectively. This section does
not attempt to provide an exhaustive list of risks faced by the Group or by investors in the Group, nor are
they in order of significance. Actual events may be different to those described.
The Board aims to manage these risks by carefully planning its activities and implementing risk control
measures. Some of the risks are, however, highly unpredictable and the extent to which the Board can
effectively manage them is limited.
a) Tenure and access risk
Applications
While the Company does not anticipate there to be any issues with the grant of its tenement applications,
there can be no assurance that the applications (or any future applications) will be granted. While the
Company considers the risk to be low, there can also be no assurance that when the relevant tenement is
granted, it will be granted in its entirety. Some of the tenement areas applied for may be excluded.
Renewal
Mining and exploration tenements are subject to periodic renewal. The renewal of the term of granted
tenements is subject to the discretion of the relevant authority. Renewal conditions may include increased
expenditure and work commitments or compulsory relinquishment of areas of the tenements. The
imposition of new conditions or the inability to meet those conditions may adversely affect the operations,
financial position and/or performance of the Company.
Access
A number of the tenements overlap certain third-party interests that may limit the Company's ability to
conduct exploration and mining activities, including private land, Crown Reserves, areas on which native
title is yet to be determined and other forms of tenure for railways, pipelines, renewable energy
infrastructure and similar third party interests.
Where the tenement overlaps private land, exploration and mining activity on the tenement may require
authorisation or consent from the owners of that land. The Company is required to enter into land access
agreements to undertake its proposed exploration program on the tenements and such land access
agreements are entered into prior to exploration activities commencing. The Company intends to carry out
heritage clearance surveys before implementing its proposed exploration program if required to do so. The
Company's current proposed exploration program is not impacted by the known sites of registered
aboriginal heritage significance.
b) Exploration Risk
Potential investors should understand that mineral exploration and development are high-risk
undertakings. There can be no assurance that exploration of the Project, or any other tenements that may
be acquired in the future, will result in the discovery of an economic ore deposit. Even if an apparently
viable deposit is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be economically exploited.
The success of the Company will also depend upon the Company having access to sufficient development
capital, being able to maintain title to its projects and obtaining all required approvals for its activities. In
the event that exploration programmes prove to be unsuccessful, this could lead to a diminution in the
value of the Tenements, a reduction in the cash reserves of the Company and possible relinquishment of
its projects.
c) Climate Change
The operations and activities of the Company are subject to changes to local or international compliance
regulations related to climate change mitigation efforts, specific taxation or penalties for carbon emissions
or environmental damage and other possible restraints on industry that may further impact the Company.
While the Company will endeavour to manage these risks and limit any consequential impacts, there can
be no guarantee that the Company will not be impacted by these occurrences.
Magmatic Resources Limited
ABN 32 615 598 322
20
Climate change may also cause certain physical and environmental risks that cannot be predicted by the
Company, including events such as increased severity of weather patterns, incidence of extreme weather
events and longer-term physical risks such as shifting climate patterns. All these risks associated with
climate change may significantly change the industry in which the Company operates.
d) Reliance on Key Personnel
The Company's future depends, in part, on its ability to attract and retain key personnel. It may not be able
to hire and retain such personnel at compensation levels consistent with its existing compensation and
salary structure. Its future also depends on the continued contributions of its key management and
technical personnel, the loss of whose services would be difficult to replace. In addition, the inability to
continue to attract appropriately qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business.
e) Environmental
The operations and proposed activities of the Company are subject to Australian laws and regulations
concerning the environment. As with most exploration projects and mining operations, the Company's
activities are expected to have an impact on the environment, particularly if advanced exploration or mine
development proceeds. It is the Company's intention to conduct its activities to the highest standard of
environmental obligation, including compliance with all environmental laws.
The disposal of mining and process waste and mine water discharge are under constant legislative scrutiny
and regulation. There is a risk that environmental laws and regulations become more onerous making the
Company's operations more expensive. Approvals are required for land clearing and for ground disturbing
activities. Delays in obtaining such approvals can result in the delay to anticipated exploration programmes
or mining activities.
The Company provides cash security bonds as a condition of its’ exploration licences, and the Company’s
access to these security bonds once exploration activities have been completed are subject to the
satisfactory completion of the rehabilitation obligations outlined in the exploration licences as assessed by
the relevant state government department.
f) Native title
The Native Title Act recognises and protects the rights and interests in Australia of Aboriginal and Torres
Strait Islander people in land and waters, according to their traditional laws and customs. There is significant
uncertainty associated with Native Title in Australia and this may impact on the Company's operations and
future plans.
The Company is required to enter into land access agreements to undertake its proposed exploration
program on the tenements and such land access agreements are entered into prior to exploration activities
commencing. The Company intends to carry out heritage clearance surveys before implementing its
proposed exploration program if required to do so. The Company's current proposed exploration program
is not impacted by the known sites of registered aboriginal heritage significance.
g) Economic
General economic conditions, introduction of tax reform, new legislation, movements in interest and inflation
rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Company, as well as on its ability to
fund its operations.
h) Additional requirements for capital
The Company's capital requirements depend on numerous factors. The Company may require further
financing in addition to amounts raised under the Offer. Any additional equity financing will dilute
shareholdings, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictions on financing and operating activities.
If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may be required to reduce the scope
of its operations. There is however no guarantee that the Company will be able to secure any additional
funding or be able to secure funding on terms favourable to the Company.

Remuneration Report (Audited)
This report outlines the remuneration arrangements in place for the key management personnel of Magmatic
Resources Limited (the “Company” or “Parent”) for the financial year ended 30 June 2024. 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 key management personnel (“KMP”) who are
defined as those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities
of the Company and the Group, directly or indirectly, including any director (whether executive or otherwise) of the
parent company, and includes all executives in the Parent and the Group receiving the highest remuneration.
Key Management Personnel
(i) Directors
David Richardson - Executive Chairman
Adam McKinnon – Managing Director
David Berrie – Non-Executive Director
Andy Viner – Non-Executive Director (resigned 9 January 2024)
(ii) Executives
Michael Franklin - Chief Financial Officer
Details of directors’ and executives’ remuneration are set out under the following main headings:
A

B

C

D
Share-based compensation
A
Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration
The objective of the Company’s executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance is competitive and
appropriate for the results delivered. The framework aims to align executive reward with the creation of value for
shareholders. The key criteria for good remuneration governance practices adopted by the Board are:
competitiveness and reasonableness
acceptability to shareholders
performance incentives
transparency
capital management
The framework provides a mix of fixed salary, consultancy, agreement-based remuneration and share based
incentives.
The broad remuneration policy for determining the nature and amount of emoluments of Board members and senior
executives of the Company is governed by the full board. Although there is no separate remuneration committee,
the Board’s aim is to ensure the remuneration packages properly reflect directors’ and executives’ duties and
responsibilities. The Board assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amount of emoluments of such officers
on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with the overall objective of ensuring
maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention and motivation of a high-quality Board and executive team.
The current remuneration policy adopted is that no element of any director or executive package is directly related
to the Company’s financial performance. Indeed, there are no elements of any director or executive remuneration
that are dependent upon the satisfaction of any specific condition however the overall remuneration policy framework
is structured to advance and create shareholder wealth.
Non-executive directors
Fees and payments to non-executive directors reflect the demands which are made on, and the responsibilities of,
the directors. Non-executive directors’ fees and payments are reviewed annually by the Board and are intended to
be in line with the market. Non-executive directors receive a board fee and fees for chairing or participating on board
committees. They do not receive performance-based pay or retirement allowances.
Magmatic Resources Limited
ABN 32 615 598 322
22
For the year ended 30 June 2024, exclusive of superannuation guarantee, the annual cash remuneration for the
Non-Executive Directors was $121,015.
The non-executive directors fee pool approved by shareholders is $250,000 per annum.
Directors’ fees
On appointment to the Board, all non-executive directors enter into a service agreement with the Company in the form
of a letter of appointment. The letter summarises the Board policies and terms, including remuneration relevant to the
office of director.
The Board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at commercial market rates for comparable companies for
their time, commitment and responsibilities. Non-executive directors receive a Board fee but do not receive fees for
chairing or participating on Board committees. Board members are allocated superannuation guarantee contributions as
required by law, and do not receive any other retirement benefits. From time to time, some individuals may choose to
sacrifice their salary or consulting fees to increase payments towards superannuation. Non-executive directors are
granted options in the Company from time to time subject to shareholder approval.
Fees for non-executive directors are not linked to the performance of the Group.
Retirement allowances for directors
Apart from superannuation payments paid on salaries there are no retirement allowances for directors.
Executive pay
The executive pay and rewards framework has the following components:
base pay and benefits such as superannuation where appropriate
long-term incentives through participation in employee equity issues
Base pay
All executives are either full time employees or consultants who are paid on an agreed basis that has been formalised
in a consultancy agreement.
Benefits
Apart from superannuation paid on executive salaries there are no additional benefits paid to executives.
Short-term incentives
There are no current short-term incentive remuneration arrangements.
Performance based remuneration
To ensure that the Company has appropriate mechanisms in place to continue to attract and retain the services of
suitable directors and employees, the Company has, in the past, issued options and performance rights to some key
personnel.

Note 1: Statement of material accounting policies
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. These
policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
(a)
Adoption of new and revised accounting standards and interpretations
In the year ended 30 June 2024, 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 reporting
periods beginning on or after 1 July 2023. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there
is no material impact of the Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB and, therefore, no change is
necessary to Company accounting policies.
There is no material impact to profit or loss or net assets on the adoption of this new standard in the current
or comparative periods as leases were only short term leases and low value leases.
(b)
New accounting standards and interpretations that are not yet mandatory
The Directors have also reviewed all Standards and Interpretations issued and not yet adopted for the year
ended 30 June 2024. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no material impact
of the Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted on the Company and, therefore, no change is
necessary to Company accounting policies.
(c)
Basis of preparation
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting
Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations
Act 2001. Magmatic Resources Limited is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial
statements.
Historical cost convention
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
Critical accounting estimates
The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also
requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Company's accounting
policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and
estimates are material to the financial statements, are disclosed in note 1(t).
(d)
Statement of compliance
The financial report was authorised by the Board of directors for issue on 26 September 2024.
The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS).
(e)
Government grants
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.
(f)
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate all of the assets, liabilities and results of the parent entity
(Magmatic Resources Limited) and its controlled subsidiaries; Modeling Resources Pty Ltd and Landslide
Investments Pty Ltd. The parent controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns
from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the
entity.
The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial statements of the
Group from the date on which control is obtained by the Group. The consolidation of a subsidiary is
discontinued from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains
or losses on transactions between group entities are fully eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies
Magmatic Resources Limited
ABN 32 615 598 322
Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the
year ended 30 June 2024

of subsidiaries have been changed and adjustments made where necessary to ensure uniformity of the
accounting policies adopted by the Group.
(g)
Income tax
The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on that 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 differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment recognised for prior
periods, where applicable.
(h)
Current and non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current
classification.
An asset is current when it is expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating
cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within twelve months after
the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used
to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-
current.
A liability is current when: it is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the
purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or there is no
unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
(i)
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other
short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily
convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
The Group accounts for long term restricted security deposits as ‘other’ non-current assets.
(j)
Other receivables
Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any provision for impairment.
(k)
Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Historical
cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis to write off the net cost of each item of property, plant and
equipment (excluding land) over their expected useful lives as follows:
Plant and equipment 3-7 years
The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at
each reporting date.
Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life
of the assets, whichever is shorter.
An item of plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit
to the Company. Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are taken to
profit or loss.
(l)
Leases
All leases are accounted for by recognising a right-of-use asset and a lease liability except for:
•
leases of low value assets; and
•
leases with a term of 12 months or less.
Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the contractual payments due to the lessor over the
lease term, with the discount rate determined by reference to the rate inherent in the lease unless (as is
Magmatic Resources Limited
ABN 32 615 598 322
Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the
year ended 30 June 2024
35
typically the case) this is not readily determinable, in which case the group’s incremental borrowing rate on
commencement of the lease is used. Variable lease payments are only included in the measurement of the
lease liability if they depend on an index or rate. In such cases, the initial measurement of the lease liability
assumes the variable element will remain unchanged throughout the lease term. Other variable lease
payments are expensed in the period to which they relate.
On initial recognition, the carrying value of the lease liability also includes:
•
amounts expected to be payable under any residual value guarantee;
•
the exercise price of any purchase option granted in favour of the group if it is reasonable certain to
assess that option; and
•
any penalties payable for terminating the lease, if the term of the lease has been estimated on the
basis of termination option being exercised.
Right of use assets are initially measured at the amount of the lease liability, reduced for any lease incentives
received, and increased for:
•
lease payments made at or before commencement of the lease;
•
initial direct costs incurred; and
•
the amount of any provision recognised where the group is required to dismantle, remove or restore
the leased asset.
Subsequent to initial measurement lease liabilities increase as a result of interest charged at a constant rate
on the balance outstanding and are reduced for lease payments made. Right-of-use assets are amortised
on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the lease or over the remaining economic life of the asset
if, rarely, this is judged to be shorter than the lease term.
When the group revises its estimate of the term of any lease (because, for example, it re-assesses the
probability of a lessee extension or termination option being exercised), it adjusts the carrying amount of the
lease liability to reflect the payments to make over the revised term, which are discounted using a revised
discount rate (being the interest rate implicit in the lease for the remainder of the lease term or, if that cannot
be readily determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate at the re-assessment date). An equivalent
adjustment is made to the carrying value of the right-of-use asset, with the revised carrying amount being
amortised over the remaining (revised) lease term.
The carrying value of lease liabilities is also revised when the variable element of future lease payments
dependent on a rate or index is revised or there is a revision to the estimate of amounts payable under a
residual value guarantee. In both cases an unchanged discount rate is used. In both cases an equivalent
adjustment is made to the carrying value of the right-of-use asset, with the revised carrying amount being
amortised over the remaining (revised) lease term.
When the group renegotiates the contractual terms of a lease with the lessor, the accounting depends on
the nature of the modification:
•
if the renegotiation results in one or more additional assets being leased for an amount
commensurate with the standalone price for the additional rights-of-use obtained, the modification
is accounted for as a separate lease in accordance with the above policy
•
in all other cases where the renegotiated increases the scope of the lease (whether that is an
extension to the lease term, or one or more additional assets being leased), the lease liability is
remeasured using the discount rate applicable on the modification date, with the right-of-use asset
being adjusted by the same amount.
•
if the renegotiation results in a decrease in the scope of the lease, both the carrying amount of the
lease liability and right-of-use asset are reduced by the same proportion to reflect the partial of full
termination of the lease with any difference recognised in profit or loss. The lease liability is then
further adjusted to ensure its carrying amount reflects the amount of the renegotiated payments
over the renegotiated term, with the modified lease payments discounted at the rate applicable on
the modification date. The right-of-use asset is adjusted by the same amount.
Payments associated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised on a straight-
line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or
less. Low-value assets are items such as IT-equipment and small items of office furniture.

(m)
Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the
financial period and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature they are measured at amortised cost
and are not discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
(n)
Fair value measurement
When an asset or liability, financial or non-financial, is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure
purposes, the fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date; and assumes that
the transaction will take place either: in the principle market; or in the absence of a principal market, in the
most advantageous market.
Fair value is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or
liability, assuming they act in their economic best interest. For non-financial assets, the fair value
measurement is based on its highest and best use. Valuation techniques that are appropriate in the
circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, are used, maximising the
use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
Investments and other financial assets
Investments and other financial assets are recognised and derecognised on settlement date where the
purchase or sale of an investment is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the investment within
the time-frame established by the market concerned. They are initially measured at fair value, net of
transaction costs, except for those financial assets classified as fair value through profit or loss, which are
initially measured at fair value.
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
Those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income
(OCI), or through profit or loss); or
Those to be measured at amortised cost.
The classification depends on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the
contractual terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or OCI. For
investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading, the classification will depend on whether the
Group has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment
at FVOCI.
(i) Measurement
At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial
asset not at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to the
acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at FVPL are expensed in profit
or loss. Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining
whether their cash flows are solely payment of principal and interest.
The Group subsequently measures all equity investments at fair value. The fair values of quoted investments
are based on current bid prices. If the market for a financial asset is not active (and for unlisted securities),
the Group establishes fair value by using valuation techniques. These include reference to the fair values of
recent arm’s length transactions, involving the same instruments or other instruments that are substantially
the same, discounted cash flow analysis, and pricing models to reflect the issuer’s specific circumstances.
Where the Group’s management has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments
in OCI, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the
derecognition of the investment. Dividends from such investments continue to be recognised in profit or loss
as other income when the Group’s right to receive payments is established.
Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVOCI are not
reported separately from other changes in fair value.
Magmatic Resources Limited
ABN 32 615 598 322
Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the
year ended 30 June 2024
37
(ii) Impairment
The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or
group of financial assets is impaired. For trade and other receivables, the Group applies the simplified
approach permitted by AASB 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial
recognition of the receivables. The expected credit losses on these financial assets are estimated using a
provision matrix based on the Group’s historical credit loss experience.
(o)
Exploration expenditure
Exploration expenditure is expensed to the statement of profit or loss as incurred and acquisition costs are
capitalised as noncurrent assets. A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the
appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest. Where uncertainty
exists as to the future viability of certain areas, the value of the area of interest is written off or provided
against. Due to the speculative nature, when exploration assets have been acquired through equity
instruments, the fair value of the asset cannot be measure reliably, therefore the fair value of the equity
instrument is used to determine the fair value of the asset.
Impairment testing of exploration and evaluation expenditure
Exploration and evaluation expenditure is assessed for impairment if sufficient data exists to determine
technical feasibility and commercial viability or facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount
exceeds the recoverable amount.
Exploration and evaluation expenditure is tested for impairment when any of the following facts and
circumstances exist:
The term of exploration licence in the specific area of interest has expired during the reporting period or
will expire in the near future, and is not expected to be renewed;
Substantive expenditure on further exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific
area are not budgeted nor planned;
Exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area have not led to the discovery of
commercially viable quantities of mineral resources and the decision was made to discontinue such
activities in the specified area; or
Sufficient data exist to indicate that, although a development in the specific area is likely to proceed, the
carrying amount of the exploration and evaluation asset is unlikely to be recovered in full from successful
development or by sale.
Where a potential impairment is indicated, an assessment is performed for each area of interest. The Group
performs impairment testing in accordance with accounting policy note 1(n) (ii).
(p)
Share based payments
Equity-settled share-based payment transactions to Directors and seed capitalists for services are
measured in reference to the fair value of equity instruments granted.
Equity-settled share-based payments in return for goods and services are measured at fair value of the
goods and services received, except where the fair value cannot be estimated reliably, in which case they
are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments.
The fair value of options and performance rights with non-vesting conditions and no service conditions
attached issued to Directors, seed capitalists and suppliers, are valued with a Black-Scholes pricing model.
The fair value is measured at the grant date of the equity instrument and is recognised in equity in the share-
based payment reserve. The number of instruments expected to vest is estimated based on the non-market
vesting conditions. The total expense is recognised at the date of grant of the options and rights.
(q)
Issued capital
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.
Magmatic Resources Limited
ABN 32 615 598 322
Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the
year ended 30 June 2024
38
(r)
Goods and Services Tax ('GST') and other similar taxes
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST
incurred is not recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the
acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount
of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority is included in other receivables or other payables
in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or
financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating
cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to,
the tax authority.
(s)
Deferred tax
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is
probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting 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 reporting 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.
(t)
Critical accounting estimates and judgements
The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates.
It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting
policies.
Judgements:
Impairment of Exploration and Evaluation Asset
Determining the recoverability of exploration and evaluation expenditure capitalised in accordance with the
Group’s accounting policy (refer Note 1(o)), requires judgements as to future events and circumstances, in
particular, whether successful development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively sale, of the
respective areas of interest will be achieved. If, after having capitalised the expenditure under accounting
policy 1(o), a judgement is made that recovery of the expenditure is unlikely, an impairment loss is recorded
in the income statement in accordance with accounting policy 1(o). The carrying amounts of exploration and
evaluation assets are set out in Note 8.
Share-based payments
The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions by reference to the fair value of the equity
instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using the Black-Scholes
model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. The
accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity-settled share-based payments would have no
impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may
impact profit or loss and equity. Refer to note (p).

Tax Losses
As at 30 June 2024, the Consolidated Entity has $20,826,313 (2023: $17,555,023) of taxable losses that are
available for offset against future taxable profits of the consolidated entity, subject to the loss recoupment
requirements in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997. No deferred tax assets have been recognised in the
Statement of Financial Position in respect of the amount of these losses, as it is not presently probable future taxable
profits will be available against which the Company can utilise the benefit.

1,368,350
Exploration expenditure is expensed to the statement of profit or loss as incurred and acquisition costs are
capitalised as non-current assets. A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the
appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest. Where uncertainty exists as
to the future viability of certain areas, the value of the area of interest is written off or provided against.
The carrying value of capitalised exploration expenditure is assessed for impairment at each area of interest
whenever facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of the asset may exceed its recoverable
amounts.
Magmatic Resources Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the

An impairment exists when the carrying amount of an asset or area of interest exceeds its estimated recoverable
amount. The asset or area of interest is then written down to its recoverable amount. Any impairment losses are
recognised in the profit or loss account.

Nature of reserves:
(a) Capital restructure reserve
The capital restructure reserve arises from the acquisition of Modeling Resources Pty Ltd
(b) Share-based payment reserve
This reserve records the value of equity instruments issued to directors, employees and suppliers as
recognition for services provided.
(c) Fair Value Other Comprehensive Income ("FVOCI") Reserve
This reserve records the value change in the Company’s investment in Australian Gold and Copper Ltd
[ASX:AGC].
(b) Categories of financial instruments
The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise of cash and short-term deposits. The main purpose of these
financial instruments is to raise finance for the Group’s operations. The Group has various other financial assets
and liabilities such as receivables and trade payables, which arise directly from its operations. It is, and has been
throughout the year, the Group’s policy that no trading in financial instruments shall be undertaken during the year.
(c) Financial risk management objectives
The Group is exposed to market risk (including interest rate risk and equity price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments is the price risk of Australian Gold and Copper Ltd’s
shares. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below.
(d) Market risk
Equity price risk sensitivity analysis
There has been no change to the Group’s exposure to market risks or the manner in which it manages and
measures the risk from the previous period.
(i) Interest rate risk management
All cash balances attract a floating rate of interest. Excess funds that are not required in the short term are placed
on deposit for a period of no more than 3 months. The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk and the effective
interest rate by maturity periods is set out below.
Interest rate sensitivity analysis
As the Group has no interest-bearing borrowings, its exposure to interest rate movements is limited to the amount
of interest income it can potentially earn on surplus cash deposits.
At 30 June 2024, if interest rates had changed by + 50 basis points and all other variables were held constant, the
Group’s loss would have been $11,503 (2023: $23,085) lower as a result of higher interest income on cash and
cash equivalents. If interest rates dropped on average – 50 basis points then the Group’s loss would have increased
the by $11,503 (2023: $23,085).
(e) Credit risk management
Credit risk relates to the risk that counterparties will default on their contractual obligations resulting in financial
loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with credit worthy counterparties and obtaining
sufficient collateral or other security where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from any
defaults.
Note 13: Financial instruments
(a) Capital risk management
Prudent capital risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities to ensure continuity
of tenure to exploration assets and to be able to conduct the Group’s business in an orderly and professional
manner. The Board monitors its future capital requirements on a regular basis and will, when appropriate, consider
the need for raising additional equity capital or to farm-out exploration projects as a means of preserving capital.
The Board currently has a policy of not entering into any debt arrangements.

(f) Liquidity risk management
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities to ensure
continuity of tenure to exploration assets and to be able to conduct the Group’s business in an orderly and
professional manner. Cash deposits are only held with major financial institutions.

to meet the conditions under which the tenements were granted. The timing and amount of exploration expenditure
commitments and obligation of the Group are subject to the minimum expenditure commitments over the life of the
licenses, required as per the Mining Act 1978, as amended, and may vary significantly from the forecast based upon
the results of the work performed which will determine the prospectivity of the relevant area of interest. Currently,
the minimum expenditure commitment for the granted tenements is approximately $962,890 (2023: $962,650).

The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities held by the Group must be estimated for recognition, measurement
and /or disclosure purposes. The Group measures fair value by level, per the following fair value measurement
hierarchy:
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or the liability,
either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices); and
Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
Valuation techniques used to determine fair values
The Group did not have any financial instruments that are recognised in the financial statements where their carrying
value differed from the fair value. The fair value of assets and liabilities are included at an amount at which the
instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation
sale. The carrying value of amounts of cash and short-term trade and other receivables, trade payables and other
current liabilities approximate their fair value largely due to the short-term maturities of these payments.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income – equity securities
The fair value of the equity holdings held in ASX companies are based on the quoted market prices from the ASX on
the last trading day prior to the period end.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the members of Magmatic Resources Limited
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Magmatic Resources Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries
(the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2024, the
consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement
of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes
to the financial report, including material accounting policy information, the consolidated entity
disclosure statement and the directors’ declaration.
In our opinion the accompanying financial report of the Group, is in accordance with the Corporations
Act 2001, including:
(i)
Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2024 and of its
financial performance for the year ended on that date; and
(ii)
Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under
those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial
Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Corporations
Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code)
that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other
ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been
given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the
time of this auditor’s report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our opinion.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in
our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of
our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide
a separate opinion on these matters.
54
Carrying value of exploration and evaluation expenditure
Key audit matter
How the matter was addressed in our audit
As disclosed in Note 8 to the Financial Report, the
carrying value of capitalised exploration and evaluation
expenditure represents a material asset of the Group.
Refer to Notes 1(o), 1(t) of the Financial Report for a
description of the accounting policy and material
judgements applied to capitalised exploration and eval-
uation expenditure.
In accordance with AASB 6 Exploration for and
Evaluation of Mineral Resources (“AASB 6”), the
recoverability of exploration and evaluation
expenditure requires significant judgment by
management in determining whether there are any
facts or circumstances that exist to suggest that the
carrying amount of this asset may exceed its
recoverable amount. As a result, this is considered a
key audit matter.
Our procedures included, but were not limited to:
•
Assessing whether rights to tenure of the
Group’s area of interest remained current at
balance date;
•
Considering the status of the ongoing
exploration programmes in the respective
areas of interest by holding discussions with
management, and reviewing the Group’s
exploration budgets, ASX announcements and
director’s minutes;
•
Considering whether any such areas of
interest had reached a stage where a
reasonable assessment of economically
recoverable reserves existed;
•
Considering whether any facts or
circumstances existed to suggest impairment
testing was required; and
•
Assessing the adequacy of the related
disclosures in Notes 1(o), 1(t) and 8 to the
financial report.
Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2024, but does not include the
financial report and the auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any
form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial
report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this
other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
55
Responsibilities of the directors for the Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of:
a)
the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting
Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and
b)
the consolidated entity disclosure statement that is true and correct in accordance with the
Corporations Act 2001, and
for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of:
i)
the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error; and
ii)
the consolidated entity disclosure statement that is true and correct and is free of misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the group to
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the
going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that
includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an
audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material
if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic
decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the
Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website (http://www.auasb.gov.au/Home.aspx) at:
https://www.auasb.gov.au/admin/file/content102/c3/ar1_2020.pdf
This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Report on the Remuneration Report
Opinion on the Remuneration Report
We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 21 to 25 of the directors’ report for the

30 June 2024, complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
Responsibilities
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the
Remuneration Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with
Australian Auditing Standards.
