Dividends Paid or Recommended No interim dividend (2020: Nil) was paid during the year. No final dividend is recommended by the Directors. ---- 5 ---- MANDRAKE RESOURCES LIMITED ABN 60 006 569 124 ANNUAL REPORT 30 JUNE 2021 Review of Operations The year ended 30 June 2021 has been a significant growth period for the Company as it continues its exploration activities at the Jimperding Project located in the Jimperding Metamorphic Belt 70km north east of Perth, WA. The Company has been primarily focussed on exploration of its 100%-owned Jimperding Project during the 2021 financial year, with particular emphasis on the advanced Newleyine Prospect. Through its wholly owned subsidiary Focus Exploration Pty Ltd (Focus), the Company also owns 100% of the Berinka Pine Creek Project in the Northern Territory which is situated on exploration licence EL31710. As at 15 September 2021 the Company had approximately $16.5M in cash. In addition to the Berinka and Jimperding Projects, the Company is considering additional resource opportunities as and when they are presented. Jimperding Project (Mandrake 100%) The Jimperding Project lies approximately 30km east of Chalice Mining Limited’s (Chalice) Julimar PGE-Ni-Cu discovery announced on 23 March 2020. The 142km2 EL comprising the Jimperding Project was applied for on 4 March 2020, prior to the Julimar discovery hole announcement and prior to Chalice pegging over 2,000km2 of ELAs contiguous to the Jimperding Project. The Jimperding Metamorphic Belt is in the northern part of the southwestern Yilgarn Craton and comprises Archaean gneisses, arkosic paragneiss and banded-iron formation, interleaved with a variety of garnetiferous orthogneiss and ultramafic units1. Figure 1 - Regional Aeromagnetics – Jimperding Project Regional work conducted by Harrison (1986) suggested that some of the mafic/ultramafic bodies in the terrane may be remnants of larger layered intrusives and thus targets for platinum group element (PGEs)2. The recent Julimar discovery in the area appears to validate this assessment. 1 Wilde, S.A.

Geol Survey of WA. ---- 6 ---- MANDRAKE RESOURCES LIMITED ABN 60 006 569 124 ANNUAL REPORT 30 JUNE 2021 Newleyine Prospect Previous Work Previous exploration was primarily undertaken in the late 1970s by Australian Anglo American (Australian Anglo) who conducted surface mapping and sampling at the Newleyine prospect. Surface sampling of the 1.5km long Newleyine ultramafic intrusive by way of 90 rock chip samples returned assay values up to 0.52% Ni and 805ppm Cu. Three exploratory diamond drill holes completed by Australian Anglo established the presence of widespread Ni-Cu-Fe sulphide mineralisation of 0.25% Ni and 300ppm Cu over drill widths of up to 240m through a dunite body. Samples were evidently not assayed for PGEs or gold. Work Undertaken by Mandrake Resources Geochemistry Concentrations of platinum and palladium in rock chip samples collected from two Mandrake field mapping events exceeded expectations with rock chip samples up to 0.36g/t Pd and 0.27g/t Pt confirming the ultramafic intrusive at Newleyine is highly fertile for PGEs. Ground EM In late 2020, Mandrake completed a Fixed Loop Electromagnetic (FLEM) survey at the Newleyine Prospect which successfully identified three confined late-time bedrock conductors located within a distinct bullseye magnetic complex that contains layered ultramafic intrusion units and banded iron formation. The conductors are of moderate to high conductance, moderately dip north (consistent with mapped outcrop) and are located between 125 – 210m below surface. Conductors A, B and C are summarised below. Conductor Plate Dimensions Depth below surface (m) Dip (°) Dip direction (°) Strike length (m) Depth extent (m) Drilling Conductor A 125 50 20 160 140 Conductor B 210 55 337.5 200 150 Conductor C 130 55 22.5 90 98.3 Drilling commenced at the Newleyine Prospect in June 2021 and was designed to test the three discrete, late-time EM bedrock conductors. MNEWDD001 MNEWDD001, targeting eastern-most FLEM conductor plate B, encountered almost exclusively ultramafic rock (serpentinite) with regular zones of disseminated and vein-filled sulphides (primarily pyrite and pyrrhotite) up to 4% by volume sulphides. The down-hole electromagnetic (DHEM) survey at MNEWDD001 identified a very strong, late-time off-hole conductor plate with ~7,000 Siemens conductance. This conductor was subsequently tested by MNEWDD003. MNEWDD002 MNEWDD002, which targeted FLEM conductor plate A, recorded several zones of disseminated and semi-massive sulphides in mafic-ultramafic rocks. MNEWDD002 included a broad serpentinite zone with consistent disseminated sulphides (primarily pyrite) up to 2% by volume from 43m to 119m followed by another serpentinite intersection from 121 – 130.5m containing 1-3% sulphides. At 130.5m a 4.5m zone comprising amphibolite with 5-10% disseminated sulphides (primarily pyrrhotite) was followed by a further 2.9m wide zone from 138.4m containing 15% sulphides by volume (including minor chalcopyrite) as well as several semi- massive sulphide bands (60% sulphides) up to 10cm in thickness. A banded magnetite iron formation, containing bands of near massive sulphide was intersected immediately below the sulphide ultramafic unit at 143.6m. ---- 7 ---- MANDRAKE RESOURCES LIMITED ABN 60 006 569 124 ANNUAL REPORT 30 JUNE 2021 A DHEM was then conducted on MNEWDD002 which identified a very strong, late-time off-hole conductor plate with ~5,000 Siemens conductance. The conductor is strongly confined and measures approximately of 40 x 30m and is yet to be drill tested. MNEWDD003 MNEWDD003 tested the very strong, late-time off-hole conductor plate (~7,000 Siemens conductance) identified in the DHEM survey at MNEWDD001. Figure 2 – Newleyine prospect showing FLEM EM conductors (A, B and C) and drill holes MNEWDD003 primarily comprised mafic-ultramafic rocks serpentinite and amphibolite with zones of disseminated and vein-filled sulphides (primarily pyrite and pyrrhotite) up to 2% sulphides by volume. Semi massive and massive sulphide zones were observed from 286.2m downhole depth associated primarily with banded iron formation with minor ultramafic rocks and mafic metasediments. The sulphide zones appear proximal to the overlying ultramafic contact (with some ultramafic zones within the sulphidic zone) and are composed primarily of pyrrhotite and minor chalcopyrite. As at the time of writing, Mandrake is preparing to drillMNEWDD004 (testing conductor plate C). Assaying of ultramafic and sulphide zones of all holes drilled to date for base metals as well as PGEs is now underway. Assay results will inform interpretation and modelling of the Newleyine intrusive where initial drilling has proven the presence of ultramafic host rocks and a relative abundance of sulphide material. AEM Survey During December 2020 Mandrake completed a whole-of–permit (~142km2) airborne electromagnetic (AEM) survey at the Jimperding Project. The heliborne AEM survey utilised Geotech Limited’s Versatile Time-Domain Electromagnetic (VTEM™ Max) geophysical system surveying at 200m spacing (with some 100m-spaced infill lines flown over anomalous areas). Cultural sources (sheds, power lines etc.) were avoided by flight lines where possible. The objective of the survey was to generate targets prospective for “Julimar-style” mineralisation. The AEM survey successfully identified a large number of late-time EM conductors that were assessed by field reconnaissance work and mapping. Two stand-out prospects, Tolarno North and Tolarno South, were identified with both prospects having received no previous exploration. Tolarno North Prospect Field inspection of a VTEM anomaly located in a paddock revealed the existence of a roughly 900m-long by 200m-wide soil- covered zone with intermittent outcropping, subcropping and float ultramafic rock. Strongly ferruginised weathered schist adjacent to the EM anomaly was submitted for assay and recorded 0.31% Ni, 503ppm Cu and 20ppb Pt. ---- 8 ---- MANDRAKE RESOURCES LIMITED ABN 60 006 569 124 ANNUAL REPORT 30 JUNE 2021 The serpentinised peridotites comprising the majority of the ultramafic rock typically returned values of 0.1% - 0.3% Ni. Ultramafic rock chip sample X4409 was submitted to the laboratory for analysis and returned 0.13% Ni, 396ppm Cu and 30 ppb Pt. Figure 3 - Jimperding Project Surface pXRF Sampling Locations Whilst the true extent of the ultramafic intrusive is unclear, the initial geochemical signature and coincident EM anomalism indicates the potential prospectivity of Tolarno North for PGE-Ni-Cu mineralisation. Tolarno South Prospect In the course of investigating three distinct VTEM anomalies and a historic mine shaft believed to have been worked for gold, Mandrake identified an area of approximately 700m x 200m where ultramafic and amphibolite float were found. No source of the EM anomalies were found and no outcrop located. It is noted that colluvium across the area is derived from a quartzite ridge hosting the historic shaft which will likely obscure any outcrop or meaningful soil geochemistry. One sample of ultramafic float was sent to the lab for assay and returned 0.12% Ni and 10ppb Pt. ---- 9 ---- MANDRAKE RESOURCES LIMITED ABN 60 006 569 124 ANNUAL REPORT 30 JUNE 2021 Berinka Pine Creek Gold-Silver-Copper Project (Mandrake 100%) In August 2020 Mandrake completed a reverse circulation (RC) drilling programme targeting gold mineralisation at its 100%- owned 289km2 Berinka Pine Creek gold project in the Northern Territory. Mandrake investigated two greenfield prospects, Vegetation Anomaly and Terry’s Gap, identified from aeromagnetics and historic gold results derived from costeans. RC hole FBRC005 at Vegetation Anomaly returned the following high grade gold-silver-copper intercept: o 3m @ 1.8g/t Au, 32 g/t Ag and 2.1% Cu from 124m including; 1m @ 3.7 g/t Au, 69 g/t Ag and 3.1% Cu from 124m ▪ Gold appears to be hosted in a series of veins in close proximity to a faulted contact between a gabbro and granite and is associated with sulphides, particularly pyrite and chalcopyrite (copper). The presence of high concentrations of silver and copper is particularly noteworthy in that previous drilling work at Berinka, primarily at Terry’s Prospect in the mid-80s, identified gold with significantly lower copper and silver concentrations. This suggests that the mineralisation at the Vegetation Anomaly may represent a different mineralised system/event. To assist in understanding the structural controls on mineralisation Mandrake engaged specialist downhole logging consultants to run an optical probe in two holes. This information has greatly assisted in determining the orientation of structures/veins of interest and has been invaluable in assisting with the generation of a follow-up drilling programme. Figure 4 – Proposed Drilling Programme - Berinka Pine Creek Project Brief Exploration History - Berinka Pine Creek Gold-Silver-Copper Project The Berinka gold exploration project is located within the Pine Creek Orogen of the Northern Territory, located 220km south southwest of Darwin. Gold mineralisation at the project is associated with >10km strike of poorly tested structurally controlled Berinka Volcanics of the Proterozoic Pine Creek Orogen. Carpentaria Exploration (CEC) first explored the area in 1975 when a reconnaissance visit found quartz veining assaying 5.5g/t Au at what is now known as the Terry’s Prospect. Over the next six years CEC conducted soil sampling, mapping, gridding, rock chip sampling and ground magnetics. Most of these activities were focused on the Terry’s Prospect area which is situated approximately 2km south-east of Vegetation Anomaly. Importantly, Vegetation Anomaly and Terry’s Prospect appear ‘connected’ by a distinct NW-SE lineament as interpreted from magnetic imagery. ---- 10 ---- MANDRAKE RESOURCES LIMITED ABN 60 006 569 124 ANNUAL REPORT 30 JUNE 2021 In the mid-1980s CEC drilled 36 RC drill holes totalling 3,014m at Terry’s prospect. Best intersections include*: • • • 4m @ 6.6g/t from 32m 6m @ 3.1g/t from 18m 5m @ 2.6g/t from 30m *A complete list of all historic drill intercepts is contained in the Mandrake Resources prospectus lodged with the ASX on 24 May 2019.

The separate financial statements of the parent entity, Mandrake Resources Limited, have not been presented within this financial report as permitted by the Corporations Act 2001. The financial report was authorised for issue on 30 September 2021 by the Board of Directors. Basis of Preparation These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are presented below and have been consistently applied unless stated otherwise. Except for cash flow information, the financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities. Accounting Policies a. Going Concern The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes the continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The net loss after income tax for the consolidated entity for the financial year ended 30 June 2021 was $3,108,541, and as at 30 June 2021, total assets exceeded total liabilities by $18,883,629. Cash and cash equivalents was $16,062,419. Forecast Cash Flows demonstrates the Group can operate on a Going Concern basis. b. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of entities controlled by Mandrake Resources Limited at the end of the reporting period. A controlled entity is any entity over which Mandrake Resources Limited has the ability and right to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from the entity’s activities. Where controlled entities have entered or left the Group during the year, the financial performance of those entities is included only for the period of the year that they were controlled. A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 20 to the financial statements. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all inter-group balances and transactions between entities in the consolidated group have been eliminated in full on consolidation. Non-controlling interests, being the equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent, are reported separately within the equity section of the consolidated statement of financial position and statement of comprehensive income. The non-controlling interests in the net assets comprise their interests at the date of the original business combination and their share of changes in equity since that date. c. Income Tax The income tax expense (revenue) for the year comprises current income tax expense (income) and deferred tax expense (income). Current income tax expense charged to profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income. Current tax liabilities (assets) are measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority. Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well as unused tax losses. Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited outside profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are recognised outside profit or loss. Except for business combinations, no deferred income tax is recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled and their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability. Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised. ---- 24 ---- MANDRAKE RESOURCES LIMITED ABN 60 006 569 124 ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2021 Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where: (a) a legally enforceable right of set-off exists; and (b) the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled. Tax Consolidation Mandrake Resources Limited and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under tax consolidation legislation. Each entity in the group recognises its own current and deferred tax assets and liabilities. Such taxes are measured using the ‘stand-alone taxpayer’ approach to allocation. Current tax liabilities (assets) and deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and tax credits in the subsidiaries are immediately transferred to the head entity. The group notified the Australian Tax Office that it had formed an income tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime. The tax consolidated group has entered a tax funding arrangement whereby each company in the group contributes to the income tax payable by the group in proportion to their contribution to the group’s taxable income. Differences between the amounts of net tax assets and liabilities derecognised and the net amounts recognised pursuant to the funding arrangement are recognised as either a contribution by, or distribution to the head entity d. Impairment of Assets At each reporting date, the group reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the statement of comprehensive income. Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. e. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet. f. Revenue Interest revenue is recognised as the interest accrues (using the effective interest rate method, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the instrument) to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. g. Trade and Other Receivables Trade and other receivables include amounts due from customers for goods sold and services performed in the ordinary course of business. Receivables expected to be collected within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are classified as current assets. All other receivables are classified as non-current assets. Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for expected credit losses. h. Trade and Other Payables Liabilities for trade creditors and other payables are initially measured at fair value and subsequently carried at amortised cost which is the amount of the consideration to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the Group. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days. Payables to related parties are carried at the principal amount. i. Goods and Services Tax (GST) Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the balance sheet are shown inclusive of GST. Cash flows are presented in the cash flow statement on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows. j. Segment Information An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities for which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the same entity) , ---- 25 ---- MANDRAKE RESOURCES LIMITED ABN 60 006 569 124 ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2021 whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance and for which discrete financial information is available. Management will also consider other factors in determining operating segments such as the existence of a line manager and the level of segment information presented to the board of Directors. Operating segments have been identified based on the information provided to the chief operating decision makers – being the executive management team. The Group aggregates two or more operating segments when they have similar economic characteristics, and the segments are similar in each of the following respects: - - - - Nature of the products and services, Type or class of customer for the products and services, Methods used to distribute the products or provide the services, and if applicable, and Nature of the regulatory environment Operating segments that meet the quantitative criteria as prescribed by AASB 8 are reported separately. However, an operating segment that does not meet the quantitative criteria is still reported separately where information about the segment would be useful to users of the Financial Statements. Management has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the board of directors that are used to make strategic decisions. The Group does not have any material operating segments with discrete financial information. The Group does not have any customers and all its’ assets and liabilities are primarily related to the corporate office and are located within Australia. The Board of Directors review internal management reports on a regular basis that is consistent with the information provided in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of financial position and statement of cash flows. As a result, no reconciliation is required because the information as presented is what is used by the Board to make strategic decisions. k. Borrowings In May 2019 Convertible Notes to the value of $220,000 were issued. As these Convertible Notes were issued with the expectation of converting to equity, it was treated as equity within the accounts, with the full amount being taken to an equity reserve “Convertible Loan Note Reserve”. The terms of the notes were such that, assuming approval of Shareholders to convert at a General Meeting, under no circumstance would the group be liable to settle the instruments in cash, and for this reason were treated as equity rather than as a liability in the financial statements. The Notes were subsequently converted in the prior year ending 30 June 2020 pursuant to attaching terms and conditions. l. Comparative Figures When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year. Where the group has retrospectively applied an accounting policy, made a retrospective restatement of items in the financial statements or reclassified items in its financial statements, an additional statement of financial position as at the beginning of the earliest comparative period will be disclosed. m. Earnings per share Basic earnings per share Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Group, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the reporting period, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the year. Diluted earnings per share Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financial costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on the conversion of all potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares. n. Contributed Equity 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. ---- 26 ---- MANDRAKE RESOURCES LIMITED ABN 60 006 569 124 ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2021 o. Exploration and evaluation expenditure Exploration and evaluation expenditure in relation to separate areas of interest for which rights of tenure are current is carried forward as an asset in the statement of financial position where it is expected that the expenditure will be recovered through the successful development and exploitation of an area of interest, or by its sale; or exploration activities are continuing in an area and activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable estimate of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves. Where a project or an area of interest has been abandoned, the expenditure incurred thereon is written off in the year in which the decision is made. p. Share-based payments The Group provides benefits to employees (including Directors) and consultants of the Group in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby employees and consultants render services in exchange for shares, performance rights or options over shares (“equity-settled transactions”). The fair value of options and performance rights are recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity (share-based payments reserve). The fair value is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which the holder becomes unconditionally entitled to the options. Fair value for options is determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and fair value for performing rights is determined using Barrier up-and-in trinomial hybrid method. In determining fair value, no account is taken of any performance conditions other than those related to the share price of Mandrake Resources (“market conditions”). q. Financial Instruments Classification The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories: those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through OCI, or through profit or loss), and those to be measured at amortised cost. - - The classification depends on how the Group manages the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows. At year end, all of the Group’s financial assets have been classified as those to be measured at amortised cost. 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. Impairment The Group assesses expected credit losses associated on a forward looking basis. For trade 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. r. Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial report based on historical knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the group. Covid-19 Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has had, or may have, on the consolidated entity based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of the supply chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the consolidated entity operates. Other than as addressed in specific notes, there does not currently appear to be either any significant impact upon the financial statements or any significant uncertainties with respect to events or conditions which may impact the consolidated entity unfavourably as at the reporting date or subsequently as a result of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Share-based payments The measurement of fair value requires the Group to make certain significant estimates and judgements as disclosed in the relevant note to the financial statements. The accounting estimates and judgements relating to equity-settled share based payments impact amounts recorded as assets and liabilities, and profit and loss. Please refer to Notes 10 and 11 for further information. Exploration and evaluation expenditure The consolidated group capitalises expenditure relating to exploration and evaluation costs where they are considered to be likely to be recoverable or where the activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable resources. Capitalisation of expenditure requires the consolidated group to make a judgement on the extent that expenditure on exploration and evaluation assets will likely be recovered in the future through mineral extraction or some other form of commercialisation of the exploration and evaluation stage assets. ---- 27 ---- MANDRAKE RESOURCES LIMITED ABN 60 006 569 124 ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2021 The future recoverability of capitalised exploration and evaluation costs are dependent on a number of factors, including whether the consolidated group decides to exploit the related lease itself or, if not, whether it successfully recovers the related exploration and evaluation asset through sale. Factors that could impact the future recoverability include the level of reserves and resources, future technological changes, which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes (including changes to environmental restoration obligations) and changes to commodity prices. Asset Acquisition not Constituting a Business When an asset acquisition does not constitute a business combination, the assets and liabilities are assigned a carrying amount based on their relative fair values in an asset purchase transaction and no deferred tax will arise in relation to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities as the initial recognition exemption for deferred tax under AASB 112 applies. No goodwill will arise on the acquisition and transaction costs of the acquisition will be included in the capitalised cost of the asset. Business Combinations Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred, which is measured at acquisition date fair value, and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree. For each business combination, the Group elects whether to measure the non-controlling interests in the acquiree at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred and included in administrative expenses. The Group determines that it has acquired a business when the acquired set of activities and assets include an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. The acquired process is considered substantive if it is critical to the ability to continue producing outputs and the inputs acquired include an organised workforce with the necessary skills, knowledge, or experience to perform that process or it significantly contributes to the ability to continue producing outputs and is considered unique or scarce or cannot be replaced without significant cost, effort, or delay in the ability to continue producing outputs. Changes in accounting policies and Accounting Policies issued not yet effective There are no standards that are not yet effective and that would be expected to have a material impact on the consolidated entity in the current of future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions. ---- 28 ---- MANDRAKE RESOURCES LIMITED ABN 60 006 569 124 ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2021 NOTE 2: REVENUE AND OTHER INCOME Revenue Interest received or due and receivable from other persons NOTE 3: OPERATING (LOSS) (Loss) before income tax expense includes the following expenses Audit and Accounting Financial expenses Legal compliance and professional fees Travel NOTE 3: INCOME TAX EXPENSE a.

NOTE 17: AUDITOR’S REMUNERATION Remuneration of the auditor for: 2021 $ 2020 $ – auditing or reviewing the financial statements – BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd 47,603 61,654 Remuneration of the auditor for non-assurance services: – – – Tax returns Relisting services Other - - 2,750 50,353 12,465 3,840 2,308 80,266 NOTE 18: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES Interest Rate Risk At reporting date, the Group’s exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s cash. The Group constantly analyses its exposure to interest rates, with consideration given to potential renewal of existing positions, the mix of fixed and variable interest rates and the period to which deposits may be fixed. At reporting date, the Group had the following financial assets exposed to variable interest rates that are not designated in cash flow hedges: 2021 $ 2020 $ Financial Assets Cash and cash equivalents – interest bearing 16,062,419 3,305,851 ---- 36 ---- MANDRAKE RESOURCES LIMITED ABN 60 006 569 124 ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2021 Sensitivity At 30 June 2021, if interest rates had increased by 0.25% from the year end variable rates with all other variables held constant, post tax profit and equity for the group would have been $40,156 higher (2020: changes of 0.25% $8,265 higher). The 0.25% (2020: 0.25%) sensitivity is based on reasonably possible changes over a financial year, using an observed range of historical RBA movements over the last few years. Liquidity Risk The Group has no significant exposure to liquidity risk as there is effectively no debt. The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring immediate and forecast cash requirements and ensuring adequate cash reserves are maintained. Credit Risk Credit risk refers to the risk that a counter party will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted the policy of dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral or other security where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Group measures credit risk on a fair value basis. Significant cash deposits are with institutions with a minimum credit rating of -AA (or equivalent) as determined by a reputable credit rating agency e.g. Standard & Poor. The Group does not have any other significant credit risk exposure to a single counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics.
