Mithril Resources Limited 
Chairmen's letter 
30 June 2018 

Dear Fellow Shareholders, 

On  behalf  of  the  Board  of  Directors,  it  is  my  pleasure  to  present  the  2018  Annual  Report  for  Mithril  Resources  Limited 
(‘Mithril’ or ‘Company’). 

During  the  year  under  review  the  Company  continued  to  focus  on  advancing  the  Kurnalpi  Project  where  nickel  sulphide 
mineralisation was confirmed in reverse circulation (RC) drilling. Importantly the work completed to date has demonstrated 
that nickel sulphides are present at  Kurnalpi  within favourable ultramafic rocks. We are confident that ongoing exploration 
will ultimately be successful, and we look forward to carrying out further drilling at Kurnalpi in 2019. 

Data compilation and target generation activities were completed on the Billy Hills Project where the company is targeting 
large  scale  zinc  +  lead  +silver  deposits  similar  to  the  nearby  Pillara  deposit.  Four  initial  targets  have  been  prioritised  for 
follow-up on two newly granted tenements highlighted by elevated rock chip results up to 14.24% zinc + lead, an untested IP 
geophysical anomaly and broad zones of bedrock anomalism in historic drill intercepts. 

Late in the year the Company applied for two Exploration Licences in the highly prospective Bangemall Basin targeting base 
metal  mineralisation.  The  tenements  are  situated  northwest  of  Meekatharra  and  are  in  a  similar  geological  setting  to  the 
large  Abra  Deposit  held  by  Galena  Mining  Limited.  The  area’s  prospectivity  is  highlighted  by  a  number  of  surface 
geochemical  anomalies,  geophysical  anomalies  and  strong  indications  of  copper  and  zinc  mineralisation  in  some  historic 
drill holes that require follow-up. Mithril will now conduct a target generation exercise ahead of the tenement’s grant which is 
expected within the next 12 months. 

To  support  our  exploration  activities,  the  Company  raised  approximately  $1.71M  via  several  Placements  to  sophisticated 
investors and an oversubscribed Share Purchase Plan (“SPP”) during the year. It was very pleasing to see that the Capital 
Raisings were well supported by a number of existing shareholders as well as new investors. 

Unfortunately, our share price has not reflected the hard work, success and dedication of our exploration team and I believe 
that this largely due to the  prevailing negative market conditions towards junior explorers. I assure  you we are working as 
hard  as  possible  to  provide  value  to  our  shareholders,  and  to  ensure  we  maximise  in-ground  expenditure  we  have 
maintained low overheads and adopted a number of measures to reduce running costs and increase efficiency. 

I would like to take this opportunity to express my thanks to my fellow directors, management and staff for their dedication 
and work during the past 12 months. We are committed to progressing the Company and advancing our projects towards 
discovery for the benefit of all shareholders. 

I also take this opportunity to thank all shareholders for your continued support of Mithril.  

Graham Ascough 
Chairman

Mithril Resources Limited 
Directors' report 
30 June 2018 

•  12m @ 0.69% nickel, 0.07% cobalt from 26 metres in 18GDSRC003 including 4m @ 0.86% nickel, 0.10% cobalt from 

26 metres, and 

•  36m @ 0.57%  nickel, 0.02% cobalt, 155ppb  PGE’s from 26m metres in  18GDSRC002 including  4m @ 0.47%  nickel,

•  8m @ 0.07% nickel, 0.02% cobalt, 0.15% copper from 18 metres in KURA99, and  
•  20m @ 0.21% nickel, 0.03% cobalt from 24 metres in KURA297.  

The Company is planning further drilling and ground EM geophysics to test the remainder of the ultramafic unit. 

Billy Hills Zinc Project (Mithril 100%)  
Billy Hills comprises three Exploration Licences adjoining the Pillara Zinc Mine, 25 kms southeast of Fitzroy Crossing in the 
West Kimberley region of Western Australia. 

At Pillara, zinc-lead mineralisation occurs within a series of fault zones that cut a sequence of Devonian limestones and had 
a reported pre-mine resource of 18.05 million tonnes at 7.7% zinc and 2.4% lead and produced 10.3 Mt @ 6.9% zinc, 2.3% 
lead  from  June  1997  to  October  2003.  Mining  briefly  resumed  during  2007  /  2008  and  the  mine  is  now  on  care  and 
maintenance. 

Two  of  the  three  tenements  have  now  been  granted  and  Mithril  has  identified  a  number  of  priority  targets  within  under-
explored portions of fault zones along strike from known mineralisation for follow-up during the December 2018 Quarter.  

Bangemall Base Metal Project (Mithril 100%) 
During the year the Company applied for two new Exploration Licences (EL’s 09/2315 and 52/3644 - located 300 kms north 
west of Meekatharra, WA) that lie west of Galena Mining Limited’s Abra Deposit (2012 JORC Code Compliant Indicated and 
Inferred Resource of 36.6Mt @ 7.3% lead, 18g/t silver) within a similar geological setting. 

Mithril is targeting an economic accumulation of copper and zinc mineralisation with the area’s prospectivity highlighted by 
historic  rock  chip  sampling  and  wide  spaced  drilling,  some  of  which  has  returned  strong  indications  of  copper  and  zinc 
mineralisation; 

•  Surface rock chip samples with individual assay values up to 17.5% copper, 2.4% lead, 3.70% zinc, and 120ppm silver 
•  Drilling - 48m @ 2,709ppm Zn from 54 metres in ISBD1, 5m @ 5,940ppm Zn from 130 metres in ISBD2, and 21m @ 

3,488ppm Zn from 315 metres in ISBD3 

Mithril is currently conducting a data compilation, review and target generation exercise ahead of the tenements’ grant which 
is expected within the next 12 months. 

Limestone Well Joint Venture (Mithril 100% and Monax Mining Ltd earning up to 80%) 
Subsequent to the end of the year, the Company executed a Farm-in and Joint Venture Agreement with Monax Mining Ltd 
(“Monax” - MOX.ASX) whereby Monax can earn up to an 80% interest in Mithril’s Limestone Well tenements (EL’s 20/846 
and 51/1069) by completing exploration expenditure of $2.5M over 5 years. 

Limestone Well (located 90 kms south east of Meekatharra, WA) lies immediately along strike from the Barrambie Titanium 
Vanadium Deposit (2012 JORC Inferred + Indicated Resource of 280.1Mt @ 9.18%TiO₂ and 0.44%V₂O₅).  

At Barrambie, the mineralisation occurs within a series of magnetite – bearing mafic rocks (anorthosite and gabbro) which 
can  be  traced  in  regional  magnetics  for  10’s  of  kilometres  strike  both  north  and  south  of  the  deposit,  including  onto 
Limestone Well.

Mithril Resources Limited 
Directors' report 
30 June 2018 

Monax  plans  to  undertake  reconnaissance  aircore  drilling  to  determine  the  vanadium  potential  of  the  magnetic  units  at 
Limestone Well as soon as possible.  

Lignum Dam / North Scotia (Mithril 100%) 
During the year Mithril expanded the size of its Kalgoorlie District nickel  – prospective landholding to over 500km² with the 
application for two new tenements (EL’s 29/1042 and 1043 - “North Scotia”). 

Together  with  Mithril’s  adjacent  (granted)  Lignum  Dam  tenements,  the  Company’s  tenure  covers  over  50  kilometres  of 
prospective ultramafic rocks along strike from previously mined high-grade nickel sulphide mineralisation at the Silver Swan 
and Scotia nickel deposits. 

The tenements remain relatively unexplored with the main historic activity being wide-spaced shallow RAB / aircore drilling 
which identified several areas of elevated nickel within prospective rock types (i.e. ultramafic) that require follow-up. 

Duffy Well (Mithril 100%) 
During  the  year,  the  Duffy  Well  project  reverted  back  to  Mithril  Resources  100%  following  the  withdrawal  of  Mithril’s 
exploration partner - Doray Minerals Limited.  

At the time of writing, the Company was reviewing all exploration data to determine next steps for the project. 

Nanadie Well Joint Venture (Mithril earning up to 75% on EL 51/1040) 
During the year, RC drilling of the Kombi Gold Prospect and adjacent Sandman Zinc Prospect (located 55 kms south east of 
Meekatharra, WA) returned anomalous gold (i.e.  4m @ 0.95g/t gold from 28 metres, 4m @ 12.76g/t gold  from 20 metres 
and 1m @ 5.44g/t gold from 20 metres) and zinc (12m @ 0.26% zinc from 97 metres including 1m @ 2.36% zinc from 97 
metres, and 5m @ 0.59% zinc from 118 metres) intersections. 

Under the terms of the Nanadie Well Farmin and Joint Venture Agreement with Intermin Resources Limited Mithril can earn 
an  initial  60%  interest  by  completing  expenditure  of  $2M  by  14  April  2019  (approximately  $1.4M  spent  to  date)  and  an 
additional 15% by completing further expenditure of $2M over a further 2 years.  

Other Projects 
No field work was undertaken during the year on the following projects: Leaky Bore (Mithril 100%), Coompana (Mithril right 
to earn 20% from OZ Minerals Limited), and Spargos Reward (Mithril 35%).

Directors' report 
30 June 2018 

Matters subsequent to the end of the financial year 
On  20  August  2018,  the  Company  announced  that  it  had  executed  a  Farm-in  and  Joint  Venture  Agreement  with  Monax 
Mining  Ltd.  (Monax:  -  Mox.ASX)  whereby  Monax  is  entitled  to  earn  up  to  an  80%  interest  in  Mithril's  Limestone  Well 
tenements (EL's 20/846 and 51/1069) by completing exploration expenditure of $2.5M over 5 years. 

At  the  Company's  general  meeting  held  on  20  September  2018,  shareholders'  approval  was  obtained  for  the  issue  of 
4,000,000 options to Mr David Hutton and 3,000,000 options to Mr Jim McKinnin-Matthews. The terms and conditions of 
the options are detailed in the Company's notice of extraordinary general meeting dated 17 August 2018. 

No other matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2018 that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect 
the Group's operations, the results of those operations, or the Group's state of affairs in future financial years. 

Environmental regulation 
The  Group  is  aware  of  its  responsibility  to  impact  as  little  as  possible  on  the  environment,  and  where  there  is  any 
disturbance, to rehabilitate sites. During the year under review the majority of work carried out was in the Northern Territory 
and Western Australia and the Group followed procedures and pursued objectives in line with guidelines published by the 
Northern  Territory/Western  Australian  Governments.  These  guidelines  are  quite  detailed  and  encompass  the  impact  on 
owners  and  land  users,  heritage,  health  and  safety  and  proper  restoration  practices.  The  Group  supports  this  approach 
and is confident that it properly monitors and adheres to these objectives, and any local conditions applicable wherever it 
explores.  

The Group is committed to minimising environmental impacts during all phases of exploration, development and production 
through  a  best  practice  environmental  approach.  The  Group  shares  responsibility  for  protecting  the  environment  for  the 
present and the future. It believes that carefully managed exploration programs should have little or no long-lasting impact 
on the environment and the company has formed a best practice policy for the management of its exploration programs. 
The  Group  properly  monitors  and  adheres  to  this  approach  and  there  were  no  environmental  incidents  to  report  for  the 
year under review. Furthermore, the Group is in compliance  with the state and/or commonwealth  environmental laws for 
the jurisdictions in which it operates. 

Occupational Health, Safety and Welfare 
In running its business, Mithril aims to protect the health, safety and welfare of employees, contractors and guests. In the 
reporting period the Group experienced no medical aid incidents. The Group reviews its OHS&W policy at regular intervals 
to ensure a high standard of OHS&W, and to reflect best practice in injury and accident prevention. 

Company secretary 
Donald Stephens is the Company Secretary. He is also a Non-Executive Director of the Company. 

Corporate Governance 
In  recognising  the  need  for  the  highest  standards  of  corporate  behavior  and  accountability,  the  Directors  of  Mithril 
Resources Limited support and have adhered to the principles of sound corporate governance. The Board recognises the 
recommendations  of  the  Australian  Securities  Exchange  Corporate  Governance  Council,  and  considers  that  Mithril 
Resources  is  in  compliance  to  the  extent  possible  with  those  guidelines,  which  are  of  importance  to  the  commercial 
operation of a junior listed resources company. During the financial year, shareholders continued to receive the benefit of 
an efficient and cost-effective corporate governance policy for the Company. 

The Company has established a set of corporate governance policies and procedures and these can be found within the 
Company’s Corporate Governance Statement located on the Company’s website:

The remuneration report details the key management personnel remuneration arrangements for the Group, in accordance 
with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its Regulations. 

Key management personnel are those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the 
activities of the entity, directly or indirectly, including all directors. These are as follows: 

Graham Ascough 
David Hutton 
Donald Stephens 

 Non-Executive Chairman 
 Managing Director 
 Non-Executive Director 

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration 
The Board is responsible for determining remuneration policies applicable to directors and senior executives of the Group. 
The  Board  policy  is  to  ensure  that  remuneration  properly  reflects  the  individuals'  duties  and  responsibilities  and  that 
remuneration is competitive in attracting, retaining and motivating people with appropriate skills and experience. At the time 
of determining remuneration consideration is given by the Board to the Group's financial performance. 

The board currently determines the nature and amount of remuneration for board members and senior executives of the 
Group.  The  policy  is  to  align  Director  and  executive  objectives  with  shareholder  and  business  objectives  by  providing  a 
fixed remuneration component and offering specific long‑term incentives. 

The  non‑executive  Directors  and  other  executives  receive  a  superannuation  guarantee  contribution  required  by  the 
government,  which  is  currently  9.5%,  and  do  not  receive  any  other  retirement  benefits.  Some  individuals,  however,  may 
choose  to  sacrifice  part  of  their  salary  to  increase  payments  towards  superannuation.  All  remuneration  paid  to  directors 
and executives is expensed as incurred. Executives are also entitled to participate in the Company share option scheme. 
Options are valued using the Black‑Scholes methodology. 

The  board  policy  is  to  remunerate  non‑executive  Directors  at  market  rates  based  on  comparable  companies  for  time, 
commitment  and  responsibilities.  The  board  determines  payments  to  non‑executive  Directors  and  reviews  their 
remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when 
required. 

There is no direct relationship between the remuneration policy and the entities performance. 

Voting and comments made at the Company's 2017 Annual General Meeting ('AGM') 
At  the  2017  AGM,  more  than  75%  of  the  votes  received  supported  the  adoption  of  the  remuneration  report  for  the  year 
ended 30 June 2017. The Company did not receive any specific feedback at the AGM regarding its remuneration practices.

Mithril Resources Limited 
Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2018 

Note 1. General information 

The  financial  statements  cover  Mithril  Resources  Limited  ('the  Company')  as  a  Group  consisting  of  Mithril  Resources 
Limited and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the year. The financial statements are presented in Australian 
dollars, which is Mithril Resources Limited's functional and presentation currency. 

Mithril  Resources  Limited  is  a  listed  public  company  limited  by  shares,  incorporated  and  domiciled  in  Australia.  Its 
registered office and principal place of business are: 

Registered office 

 Principal place of business 

C/- HLB Mann Judd (SA) Pty Ltd 
169 Fullarton Road 
DULWICH SA 5065 

 22B Beulah Road 
 NORWOOD SA 5067 

The financial statements were authorised for issue, in accordance with a resolution of Directors, on 26 September 2018. 

Note 2. Significant 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. 

New or amended Accounting Standards and 
Interpretations adopted 
The  Group  has  adopted  all  of  the  new  or  amended 
Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  issued  by  the 
Australian  Accounting  Standards  Board  ('AASB')  that  are 
mandatory for the current reporting period. 

Any  new  or  amended  Accounting  Standards  or 
Interpretations  that  are  not  yet  mandatory  have  not  been 
early adopted. 

The  adoption  of 
these  Accounting  Standards  and 
Interpretations  did  not  have  any  significant  impact  on  the 
financial performance or position of the Group. 

The  following  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  are 
most relevant to the Group: 

AASB 2016-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting 
Standards - Disclosure Initiative: Amendments to AASB 107 
The Group has adopted AASB 2016-2 from 1 January 2017. 
The  amendments  to  AASB  107  'Statement  of  Cash  Flows' 
require  the  disclosure  of  changes  in  liabilities  arising  from 
financing activities, including both changes arising from cash 
flows and non-cash changes. 

Going concern 
The  financial  report  has  been  prepared  on  the  basis  of  a 
going  concern.  The  financial  report  shows  the  Group 
incurred a net loss of $1,048,164 (2017: $787,602) and a net 
cash  outflow  from  operating  and  investing  activities  of 
$1,475,826  (2017:  $1,070,501)  during  the  year  ended  30 
June  2018.  The  Group  continues  to  be  economically 
dependent on the generation of cashflow from the business 
and/  or  raising  additional  capital  as  and  when  required  for 
the  continued  operations  including  the  exploration  program 
and the provision of working capital. 

The  Group’s  ability  to  continue  as  a  going  concern  is 
contingent  upon  generation  of  cashflow  from  its  business 
and/  or  successfully  raising  additional  capital.  If  sufficient 
cash  flow  is  not  generated  and/or  additional  funds  are  not 
raised, the going concern basis may not be appropriate, with 
the result that the Group may have to realise its assets and 
extinguish  its  liabilities,  other  than  in  the  ordinary  course  of 
business  and  at  amounts  different  from  those  stated  in  the 
financial  report.  No  allowance  for  such  circumstances  has 
been made in the financial report. 

Basis of preparation 
These  general  purpose  financial  statements  have  been 
in  accordance  with  Australian  Accounting 
prepared 
Standards  and  Interpretations  issued  by  the  Australian 
Accounting  Standards  Board  ('AASB')  and  the  Corporations 
Act  2001,  as  appropriate  for  for-profit  oriented  entities. 
These  financial  statements  also  comply  with  International 
Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International 
Accounting Standards Board ('IASB'). 

Historical cost convention 
The  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  under  the 
historical  cost  convention,  except  for,  where  applicable,  the 
revaluation  of  available-for-sale  financial  assets,  financial 
assets  and  liabilities  at  fair  value  through  profit  or  loss, 
investment properties, certain classes of property, plant and 
equipment and derivative financial instruments.

Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2018 

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

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  Group's  accounting  policies.  The  areas 
involving  a  higher  degree  of  judgement  or  complexity,  or 
areas  where  assumptions  and  estimates  are  significant  to 
the financial statements, are disclosed in note 3. 

Parent entity information 
In  accordance  with  the  Corporations  Act  2001,  these 
financial  statements  present  the  results  of  the  Group  only. 
Supplementary 
is 
disclosed in note 24. 

the  parent  entity 

information  about 

Principles of consolidation 
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets 
and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Mithril  Resources Limited 
('Company'  or  'parent  entity')  as  at  30  June  2018  and  the 
results  of  all  subsidiaries  for  the  year  then  ended.  Mithril 
Resources Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred 
to in these financial statements as the 'Group'. 

Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the Group has 
control.  The  Group  controls  an  entity  when  the  Group  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 to direct the activities of the entity. 
Subsidiaries  are  fully  consolidated  from  the  date  on  which 
control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated 
from the date that control ceases. 

Intercompany  transactions,  balances  and  unrealised  gains 
on transactions between entities in the Group are eliminated. 
Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction 
provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. 
Accounting  policies  of  subsidiaries  have  been  changed 
where  necessary  to  ensure  consistency  with  the  policies 
adopted by the Group. 

Revenue and other income 
Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic 
benefit will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably 
measured.  Revenue  is  measured  at  the  fair  value  of  the 
consideration  received  or  receivable.  All  revenue  is  stated 
net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST). 

Rendering of services 
Revenue  in  relation  to  rendering  of  services  is  recognised 
depending  on  whether  the  outcome  of  the  services  can  be 
estimated  reliably. If  the  outcome  can  be  estimated  reliably 
then  the  stage  of  completion  of  the  services  is  used  to 
determine the appropriate level of revenue to be recognised 
in the period. 

If the outcome cannot be reliably estimated then revenue is 
recognised  to  the  extent  of  expenses  recognised  that  are 
recoverable. 

20 

Adminstration fees 
Administration  fees  are  recognised  on  an  accruals  basis 
when the Group is entitled to it. 

Interest 
Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues  using the 
effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the 
amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest 
income  over  the  relevant  period  using  the  effective  interest 
rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future 
cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset 
to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. 

Other revenue 
Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the 
right to receive payment is established. 

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 
the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable 
to 
the 
adjustment recognised for prior periods, where applicable. 

temporary  differences,  unused 

losses  and 

tax 

tax  assets  and 

liabilities  are  recognised 

Deferred 
for 
temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied 
when  the  assets  are  recovered  or  liabilities  are  settled, 
based  on  those  tax  rates  that  are  enacted  or  substantively 
enacted, except for: 
●   When  the  deferred  income  tax  asset  or  liability  arises 
from  the  initial  recognition  of  goodwill  or  an  asset  or 
liability in a transaction that is not a business combination 
and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the 
accounting nor taxable profits; or 

●   When the taxable temporary difference is associated with 
interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, and 
the  timing  of  the  reversal  can  be  controlled  and  it  is 
probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in 
the foreseeable future. 

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  recognised  and  unrecognised 
deferred  tax  assets  are  reviewed  at  each  reporting  date. 
Deferred  tax  assets  recognised  are  reduced  to  the  extent 
that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be 
available for the carrying amount to be recovered. Previously 
unrecognised  deferred  tax  assets  are  recognised  to  the 
extent that it is probable that there are future taxable profits 
available to recover the asset. 

                      
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
 
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing 
basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written 
off  by  reducing  the  carrying  amount  directly.  A  provision  for 
impairment  of  trade  receivables  is  raised  when  there  is 
objective  evidence that  the Group  will  not  be  able  to  collect 
all  amounts  due  according  to  the  original  terms  of  the 
receivables.  Significant  financial  difficulties  of  the  debtor, 
probability  that  the  debtor  will  enter  bankruptcy  or  financial 
reorganisation and default or delinquency in payments (more 
than  90  days  overdue)  are  considered  indicators  that  the 
trade  receivable  may  be  impaired.  The  amount  of  the 
impairment  allowance  is  the  difference  between  the  asset's 
carrying  amount  and  the  present  value  of  estimated  future 
cash flows,  discounted at the  original effective interest rate. 
Cash  flows  relating  to  short-term  receivables  are  not 
discounted if the effect of discounting is immaterial. 

Joint Arrangement 
AASB 11 Joint Arrangements defines a joint arrangement as 
an  arrangement  of  which  two  or  more  parties  have  joint 
control  and  classifies  these  arrangements  as  either  joint 
ventures or joint operations. 

Mithril  Resources  Ltd  has  determined  that  it  has  both  joint 
ventures and joint operations. 

In relation to its joint venture operations, where the venturer 
has the rights to the individual assets and obligations arising 
from the arrangement, Mithril Resources Ltd has recognised: 

●   Its assets, including its share of any assets held jointly; 
●   Its  liabilities,  including  its  share  of  any  liabilities  incurred 

jointly; 

●   Its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising 

from the joint operation; 

●   Its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the 

joint operation; 

●   Its  expenses,  including  its  share  of  any  expenses 

incurred jointly. 

These  figures  are  incorporated  into  the  relevant  line  item  in 
the primary statements. 

Mithril Resources Limited 
Notes to the financial statements 
30 June 2018 

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only where there 
is  a  legally  enforceable  right  to  offset  current  tax  assets 
against current tax liabilities and deferred tax assets against 
deferred  tax  liabilities;  and  they  relate  to  the  same  taxable 
authority  on  either  the  same  taxable  entity  or  different 
taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously. 

Mithril  Resources  Ltd  and  its  wholly  owned  Australian 
resident  entities  are  part  of  a  tax  consolidated  group  under 
the tax consolidation legislation as of 1 July 2007.  

The  head  entity  within  the  tax‑consolidated  group  is  Mithril 
Resources  Ltd.  Mithril  Resources  Ltd  and  each  of  its 
wholly‑owned  controlled  entities  recognise  the  current  and 
deferred  tax  assets  and  deferred  tax  liabilities  applicable  to 
the  transactions  undertaken  by  it,  after  elimination  of 
intra‑group  transactions.  Mithril  Resources  Ltd  recognises 
the entire tax‑consolidated group's retained tax losses. 

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 classified as current when: it is either expected to 
be  realised  or  intended  to  be  sold  or  consumed  in  the 
Group's  normal  operating  cycle;  it  is  held  primarily  for  the 
purpose  of  trading;  it  is  expected  to  be  realised  within  12 
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  12  months  after  the 
reporting  period.  All  other  assets  are  classified  as  non-
current. 

A  liability  is  classified  as  current  when:  it  is  either  expected 
to be settled in the Group's normal operating cycle; it is held 
primarily  for  the  purpose  of  trading;  it  is  due  to  be  settled 
within  12  months  after  the  reporting  period;  or  there  is  no 
unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at 
least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities 
are classified as non-current. 

Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  always  classified  as 
non-current. 

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. 

Trade and other receivables 
Trade  receivables  are  initially  recognised  at  fair  value  and 
subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective 
interest  method,  less  any  provision  for  impairment.  Trade 
receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days.

Notes to the financial statements

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 

to 

Property, plant and equipment 
Land  and  buildings  are  shown  at  fair  value,  based  on 
periodic,  at  least  every  3  years,  valuations  by  external 
independent  valuers,  less  subsequent  depreciation  and 
impairment  for  buildings.  The  valuations  are  undertaken 
more frequently if there is a material change in the fair value 
relative 
the  carrying  amount.  Any  accumulated 
depreciation  at  the  date  of  revaluation  is  eliminated  against 
the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount is 
restated  to  the  revalued  amount  of  the  asset.  Increases  in 
the  carrying  amounts  arising  on  revaluation  of  land  and 
buildings  are  credited  in  other  comprehensive  income 
through  to  the  revaluation  surplus  reserve  in  equity.  Any 
revaluation  decrements  are 
in  other 
comprehensive  income  through  to  the  revaluation  surplus 
reserve  to  the  extent  of  any  previous  revaluation  surplus  of 
the  same  asset.  Thereafter  the  decrements  are  taken  to 
profit or loss. 

initially 

taken 

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  diminishing  value  basis  to 
write  off  the  net  cost  of  each  item  of  property,  plant  and 
equipment (excluding  land) over their expected useful lives. 
The  depreciation  rates  used  for  each  class  of  depreciable 
asset  are shown below: 

Plant and equipment 
Fixtures and fittings 
Office equipment 

 10% - 40% 
 10% - 20% 
 20% - 40% 

The  residual  values,  useful  lives  and  depreciation  methods 
are reviewed,  and adjusted if  appropriate, at each reporting 
date. 

An  item  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  is  derecognised 
upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit to 
the  Group.  Gains  and  losses  between  the  carrying  amount 
and  the  disposal  proceeds  are  taken  to  profit  or  loss.  Any 
revaluation surplus reserve relating to the item disposed of is 
transferred directly to retained profits. 

in  relation 

Exploration and evaluation assets 
Exploration  and  evaluation  expenditure 
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. 

22 

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. 

Costs  of  site  restoration  are  provided  over  the  life  of  the 
facility  from  when  exploration  commences  and  are  included 
in  the  costs  of  that  stage.  When  provisions  for  closure  and 
rehabilitation are initially recognised, the corresponding cost 
is  capitalised  as  an  asset  representing  part  of  the  cost  of 
acquiring the future economic benefits of the operation. The 
capitalised  cost  of  closure  and  rehabilitation  activities  is 
recognised in property, plant and equipment and depreciated 
accordingly.  The  value  of  the  provision  is  progressively 
increased  over  time  as  the  effect  of  discounting  unwinds, 
creating  an  expense  which  is  recognised  in  finance  costs. 
Site restoration costs include the dismantling and removal of 
mining  plant,  equipment  and  building  structures,  waste 
removal  and  rehabilitation  of  the  site  in  accordance  with 
clauses  of  the  mining  permits.  Such  costs  have  been 
determined  using  estimates  of  future  costs,  current  legal 
requirements  and  technology  discounted  to  their  present 
value. 

Any changes in the estimates for the costs are accounted on 
a prospective basis in the consolidated statement of profit or 
loss  and  other  comprehensive  income.  In  determining  the 
costs of site restoration, there is an uncertainty regarding the 
nature  and  extent  of  the  restoration  due  to  community 
expectations  and  future  legislation.  Accordingly  the  costs 
have  been  determined  on  the  basis  that  restoration  will  be 
completed within one year of abandoning the site 

Impairment of non-financial assets 
Goodwill  and  other  intangible  assets  that  have  an  indefinite 
useful  life  are  not  subject  to  amortisation  and  are  tested 
annually  for  impairment,  or  more  frequently  if  events  or 
changes  in  circumstances  indicate  that  they  might  be 
impaired.  Other  non-financial  assets  are  reviewed 
for 
impairment  whenever  events  or  changes  in  circumstances 
indicate  that  the  carrying  amount  may  not  be  recoverable. 
An  impairment  loss  is  recognised  for  the  amount  by  which 
the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. 

Recoverable  amount  is  the  higher  of  an  asset's  fair  value 
less  costs  of  disposal  and  value-in-use.  The  value-in-use  is 
the present value of the estimated future cash flows relating 
to  the  asset  using  a  pre-tax  discount  rate  specific  to  the 
asset  or  cash-generating  unit  to  which  the  asset  belongs. 
Assets that do not have independent cash flows are grouped 
together to form a cash-generating unit. 

Trade and other payables 
These  amounts  represent  liabilities  for  goods  and  services 
provided  to  the  Group  prior  to  the  end  of  the  financial  year 
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.

Employee benefits 

Short-term employee benefits 
Liabilities  for  wages  and  salaries,  including  non-monetary 
benefits, annual leave and long service leave expected to be 
settled  wholly  within  12  months  of  the  reporting  date  are 
measured  at  the  amounts  expected  to  be  paid  when  the 
liabilities are settled. 

Other long-term employee benefits 
The  liability  for  annual  leave  and  long  service  leave  not 
expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date 
are  measured  at  the  present  value  of  expected  future 
payments  to  be  made  in  respect  of  services  provided  by 
employees  up  to  the  reporting  date  using  the  projected  unit 
credit  method.  Consideration  is  given  to  expected  future 
wage and salary  levels, experience of employee departures 
and  periods  of  service.  Expected  future  payments  are 
discounted  using  market  yields  at  the  reporting  date  on 
national  government  bonds  with  terms  to  maturity  and 
currency  that  match,  as  closely  as  possible,  the  estimated 
future cash outflows. 

Share-based payments 
Equity-settled  and  cash-settled  share-based  compensation 
benefits are provided to employees. 

Equity-settled  transactions  are awards  of shares, or options 
over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for 
the  rendering  of  services.  Cash-settled  transactions  are 
awards  of  cash  for  the  exchange  of  services,  where  the 
amount  of  cash  is  determined  by  reference  to  the  share 
price. 

The  cost  of  equity-settled  transactions  are  measured  at  fair 
value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined 
using  either  the  Binomial  or  Black-Scholes  option  pricing 
model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of 
the  option,  the  impact  of  dilution,  the  share  price  at  grant 
date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the 
expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the 
term of the option,  together with non-vesting conditions that 
do  not  determine  whether  the  Group  receives  the  services 
that entitle the employees to receive payment. No account is 
taken of any other vesting conditions. 

The cost of equity-settled transactions are recognised as an 
expense  with  a  corresponding  increase  in  equity  over  the 
vesting  period.  The  cumulative  charge  to  profit  or  loss  is 
calculated  based  on  the  grant  date  fair  value  of  the  award, 
the best estimate of the number of awards that are likely to 
vest  and  the  expired  portion  of  the  vesting  period.  The 
amount  recognised  in  profit  or  loss  for  the  period  is  the 
cumulative  amount  calculated  at  each  reporting  date  less 
amounts already recognised in previous periods. 

23 

The cost of cash-settled transactions is initially, and at each 
reporting date until vested, determined by applying either the 
Binomial  or  Black-Scholes  option  pricing  model,  taking  into 
consideration  the  terms  and  conditions  on  which  the  award 
was  granted.  The  cumulative  charge  to  profit  or  loss  until 
settlement of the liability is calculated as follows: 
●   during  the  vesting  period,  the  liability  at  each  reporting 
date  is the fair value of the award at that  date multiplied 
by the expired portion of the vesting period. 

●   from the end of the vesting period until settlement of the 
award, the liability is the full fair value of the liability at the 
reporting date. 

All  changes  in  the  liability  are  recognised  in  profit  or  loss. 
The  ultimate  cost  of  cash-settled  transactions  is  the  cash 
paid to settle the liability. 

Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining 
fair  value.  Therefore  any  awards  subject 
to  market 
conditions  are  considered  to  vest  irrespective  of  whether  or 
not  that  market  condition  has  been  met,  provided  all  other 
conditions are satisfied. 

If  equity-settled  awards  are  modified,  as  a  minimum  an 
expense  is  recognised  as  if  the  modification  has  not  been 
made.  An  additional  expense  is  recognised,  over  the 
remaining vesting period, for any modification that increases 
the total fair value of the share-based compensation benefit 
as at the date of modification. 

If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the Group 
or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition is treated as 
a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the 
Group  or  employee  and  is  not  satisfied  during  the  vesting 
period,  any  remaining  expense  for  the  award  is  recognised 
over  the  remaining  vesting  period,  unless  the  award  is 
forfeited. 

If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has 
vested  on  the  date  of  cancellation,  and  any  remaining 
expense  is  recognised  immediately.  If  a  new  replacement 
award  is  substituted  for  the  cancelled  award,  the  cancelled 
and new award is treated as if they were a modification. 

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.

AASB 9 Financial Instruments 
This  standard  is  applicable  to  annual  reporting  periods 
beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The standard replaces 
all previous versions of AASB 9 and completes the project to 
replace  IAS  39  'Financial  Instruments:  Recognition  and 
Measurement'.  AASB  9  introduces  new  classification  and 
measurement  models  for  financial  assets.  A  financial  asset 
shall  be  measured  at  amortised  cost,  if  it  is  held  within  a 
business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to 
collect contractual cash flows, which arise on specified dates 
financial 
and  solely  principal  and 
instrument  assets  are  to  be  classified  and  measured  at  fair 
value  through  profit  or  loss  unless  the  entity  makes  an 
irrevocable  election  on  initial  recognition  to  present  gains 
and  losses  on  equity  instruments  (that  are  not  held-for-
trading) in other comprehensive income ('OCI'). For financial 
liabilities, the standard requires the portion of the change  in 
fair  value  that  relates  to  the  entity's  own  credit  risk  to  be 
presented  in  OCI  (unless  it  would  create  an  accounting 
mismatch). New simpler hedge accounting requirements are 
intended to more closely align the accounting treatment with 
the risk management activities of the entity. New impairment 
requirements will use an 'expected credit loss' ('ECL') model 
to  recognise  an  allowance.  Impairment  will  be  measured 
under  a  12-month  ECL  method  unless  the  credit  risk  on  a 
financial  instrument  has  increased  significantly  since  initial 
recognition  in  which  case  the  lifetime  ECL  method  is

Earnings per share 

Basic earnings per share 
Basic  earnings  per  share  is  calculated  by  dividing  the  profit 
attributable  to  the  Owners  of  Mithril  Resources  Limited, 
excluding  any  costs  of  servicing  equity  other  than  ordinary 
shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares 
outstanding  during  the  financial  year,  adjusted  for  bonus 
elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial 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 
financing  costs  associated  with  dilutive  potential  ordinary 
shares  and 
the  weighted  average  number  of  shares 
assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation 
to dilutive potential ordinary shares. 

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. 

New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet 
mandatory or early adopted 
Australian  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  that 
have  recently  been  issued  or  amended  but  are  not  yet 
mandatory,  have  not  been  early  adopted  by  the  Group  for 
the  annual  reporting  period  ended  30  June  2018.  The 
Group's assessment of the impact of these new or amended 
Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations,  most  relevant  to 
the Group, are set out below.

AASB 16 Leases 
This  standard  is  applicable  to  annual  reporting  periods 
beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The standard replaces 
AASB  117  'Leases'  and  for  lessees  will  eliminate  the 
classifications  of  operating  leases  and  finance 
leases. 
'right-of-use'  asset  will  be 
Subject 
capitalised  in  the  statement  of  financial  position,  measured 
at  the  present  value  of  the  unavoidable  future  lease 
payments  to  be  made  over  the  lease  term.  The  exceptions 
relate to short-term leases of 12 months or  less and  leases 
of  low-value  assets  (such  as  personal  computers  and  small 
office  furniture)  where  an  accounting  policy  choice  exists 
whereby  either  a  'right-of-use'  asset  is  recognised  or  lease 
payments  are  expensed  to  profit  or  loss  as  incurred.  A 
liability  corresponding  to  the  capitalised  lease  will  also  be 
recognised,  adjusted 
lease 
incentives  received,  initial  direct  costs  incurred  and  an 
estimate  of  any  future  restoration,  removal  or  dismantling 
costs.  Straight-line  operating  lease  expense  recognition  will 
be replaced  with a depreciation charge for the leased asset 
(included in operating costs) and an interest expense on the 
recognised  lease  liability  (included  in  finance  costs).  In  the 
earlier  periods  of  the  lease,  the  expenses  associated  with 
the  lease  under  AASB  16  will  be  higher  when  compared  to 
lease  expenses  under  AASB  117.  However  EBITDA 
(Earnings  Before 
Interest,  Tax,  Depreciation  and 
Amortisation)  results  will  be  improved  as  the  operating 
expense is replaced by interest expense and depreciation in 
profit  or  loss  under  AASB  16.  For  classification  within  the 
statement  of  cash  flows,  the  lease  payments  will  be 
separated  into  both  a  principal  (financing  activities)  and 
interest  (either  operating  or  financing  activities)  component. 
For  lessor  accounting,  the  standard  does  not  substantially 
change  how  a  lessor  accounts  for  leases.  The  Group  will 
adopt  this  standard  from  1  July  2019  but  the  impact  of  its 
adoption is yet to be assessed by the Group.

Note 3. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions 

The  preparation  of  the  financial  statements  requires  management  to  make  judgements,  estimates  and  assumptions  that 
affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in 
relation  to  assets,  liabilities,  contingent  liabilities,  revenue  and  expenses.  Management  bases  its  judgements,  estimates 
and  assumptions  on  historical  experience  and  on  other  various  factors,  including  expectations  of  future  events, 
management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will 
seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing 
a  material  adjustment  to  the  carrying  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  (refer  to  the  respective  notes)  within  the  next 
financial year are discussed below. 

Capitalisation of exploration and evaluation expenditure 
The  Group's  policy  for  exploration  and  evaluation  is  discussed  in  Note  2.  The  application  of  this  policy  requires 
management to make certain  assumptions as to future  events and circumstances. Any such estimates and assumptions 
may  change  as  new  information  becomes  available.  If,  after  having  capitalised  exploration  and  evaluation  expenditure, 
management concludes that the capitalised expenditure is unlikely to be recovered by future sale or exploration, then the 
relevant capitalised amount will be written off through the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive 
income. 

Share-based payment transactions 
The  Group  measures  the  cost  of  equity-settled  transactions  with  employees  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  either  the  Binomial  or  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. 

Recovery of deferred tax assets 
Deferred  tax  assets  are  recognised  for  deductible  temporary  differences  only  if  the  Group  considers  it  is  probable  that 
future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. 

Note 4. Operating segments 

The Board has considered the requirements of AASB 8 Operating Segments and the internal reports that are  reviewed by 
the  chief  operating  decision  maker  (the  Board)  in  allocating  resources  and  has  concluded  at  this  time  that  there  are  no 
separately identifiable segments.

The Group has tax losses arising in Australia of $34,853,444 (2017: $31,772,031) that may be available and may be offset 
against future taxable profits. In addition, these tax losses can only be utilised in the future if the  continuity of ownership 
test is passed, or failing that, the same business test is passed. 

No deferred tax asset has been recognised because it is not likely future assessable income is derived of a nature and of 
an amount sufficient to enable the benefit to be realised.

Note 12. Exploration and evaluation (continued) 

The recoverability of the carrying amount of the exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on successful development 
and commercial exploitation, or alternatively, sale of the respective areas of interest. 

The recoverable amount of development expenditure is determined as the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its 
value in use. 

Exploration  and  Evaluation  expenditure  has  been  carried  forward  to  the  extent  that  they  are  expected  to  be  recouped 
through the successful development of the area or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage that permits 
reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recovered reserves. Management assessment of carried forward 
expenditure resulted in impairment charges of $16,666 (2017: $123,588).

Ordinary shares 
Ordinary  shares  entitle  the  holder  to  participate  in  dividends  and  the  proceeds  on  the  winding  up  of  the  Company  in 
proportion to the number of and amounts paid on the shares held. The fully paid ordinary shares have no par value and the 
Company does not have a limited amount of authorised capital. 

On a show of hands every member present at a meeting in person or by proxy shall have one vote and upon a poll each 
share shall have one vote. 

Share buy-back 
There is no current on-market share buy-back. 

Capital risk management 
The  Group's  objectives  when  managing  capital  is  to  safeguard  its  ability  to  continue  as  a  going  concern,  so  that  it  can 
provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum capital structure to reduce 
the cost of capital. 

Capital is regarded as total equity, as recognised in the statement of financial position, plus net debt. Net debt is calculated 
as total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. 

Proceeds  from  share  issues  are  used  to  maintain  and  expand  the  Company’s  exploration  activities  and  fund  operating 
costs.

Financial risk management objectives 
The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's overall 
risk  management  program  focuses  on  the  unpredictability  of  financial  markets  and  seeks  to  minimise  potential  adverse 
effects on the financial performance of the Group. The Group uses different methods to measure different types of risk to 
which it is exposed. These methods include sensitivity analysis in the case of interest rate and ageing analysis for credit 
risk. 

Risk management is carried out by the Board of Directors ('the Board'). These policies include identification and analysis of 
the  risk  exposure  of  the  Group  and  appropriate  procedures,  controls  and  risk  limits. The  Board  identifies,  evaluates  and 
hedges financial risks within the Group's operating units. 

Market risk 

Interest rate risk 
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk as it holds some bank deposits at floating rates. 

The Company's policy is to minimise interest rate cash flow risk exposures on long‑term financing. Longer‑term deposits 
are  therefore  usually  at  fixed  rates.  At  the  reporting  date,  the  Company  is  exposed  to  changes  in  market  interest  rates 
through its bank deposits, which are subject to variable interest rates.

Credit risk 
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss  to the 
Company. The Company has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties as a means of mitigating the 
risk  of  financial  loss  from  activities.  The  Company  does  not  have  any  significant  credit  risk  exposure  to  any  single 
counterparty  or  any  company  of  counterparties  having  similar  characteristics.  The  credit  risk  on  liquid  funds  is  limited 
because the counterparties are banks with high credit‑ratings assigned by international credit‑rating agencies. The carrying 
amount  of  financial  assets  recorded  in  the  financial  statements,  net  of  any  allowances  for  losses,  represents  the 
Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk. 

Liquidity risk 
Liquidity risk arises from the Company’s management of working capital and the finance charges and principal repayments 
on its debt instruments. It is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting its financial obligations as they fall 
due. 

Ultimate  responsibility  for  liquidity  risk  management  rests  with  the  Board  of  Directors,  whom  have  built  an  appropriate 
liquidity  risk  management  framework  for  the  management  of  the  Company’s  short,  medium  and  long‑term  funding  and 
liquidity management requirements. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves 

Fair value of financial instruments 
Unless otherwise stated, the carrying amounts of financial instruments reflect their fair value.

The Group established the Mithril Resources Ltd Employee Share Option Plan and a summary of the Rules of the Plan are 
set out below: 
● 

 All  employees  (full  and  part  time)  will  be  eligible  to  participate  in  the  Plan  after  a  qualifying  period  of  12  months 
employment, although the Board may waive this requirement.  

● 

● 

● 

 Options are granted under the Plan at the discretion of the Board and if permitted by the Board, may be issued to an 
employee's nominee. 

 Each option is to subscribe for one fully paid ordinary share in the Company and will expire 5 years from its date of 
issue.  An option is exercisable at any time from its date of issue.  Options will be issued free.  The exercise price of 
options  will  be  determined  by  the  Board,  subject  to  a  minimum  price  equal  to  the  market  value  of  the  Company's 
shares at the time the Board resolves to offer those options.  The total number of shares, the subject of options issued 
under  the  Plan,  when  aggregated  with  issues  during  the  previous  5  years  pursuant  to  the  Plan  and  any  other 
employee share plan, must not exceed 5% of the Company's issued share capital. 

 If, prior to the expiry date of options, a person ceases to be an employee of the Company for any reason other than 
retirement at age 60 or more (or such earlier age as the board permits), permanent disability, redundancy or death, 
the options held by that person (or that person's nominee) automatically lapse on the first to occur of a) the expiry of 
the period of 6 months from the date of such occurrence, and b) the expiry date. If a person dies, the options held by 
that person will be exercisable by that person's legal personal representative. 

● 

 Options can’t be transferred other than to the legal personal representative of a deceased option holder.  

● 

 The Company will not apply for official quotation of any options issued under the plan.  

● 

 Shares issued as a result of the exercise of options will rank equally with the Company's previously issued shares.  

● 

 Option holders may only participate in new issues of securities by first exercising their options.  

The Board may amend the Plan Rules subject to the requirements of the Listing Rules.

Independent Auditor’s Report 

To the Members of Mithril Resources Limited  

Report on the audit of the financial report 

Opinion 
We have audited the financial report of Mithril Resources Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group), which 
comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2018, the consolidated statement of profit or loss 
and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows 
for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting 
policies, and the Directors’ declaration.  

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including: 

a  giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2018 and of its performance for the year 

ended on that date; and  

b  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 auditor independence requirements of 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 (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 believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

Material uncertainty related to going concern 
We draw attention to Note 2 in the financial statements, which indicates that the Group incurred a net loss of $1.05 million 
during the year ended 30 June 2018 and a net cash outflow from operating and investing activities of $1.47 million during the 
year ended then ended. As stated in Note 2, these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 2, 
indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our 
opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

In accordance with AASB 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of 
Mineral Resources, the Group is required to assess at each 
reporting date if there are any triggers for impairment which 
may suggest the carrying value is in excess of the recoverable 
value. 

The process undertaken by management to assess whether 
there are any impairment triggers in each area of interest 
involves an element of management judgement.  

 

 

 

This area is a key audit matter due to the significant 
judgement involved in determining the existence of 
impairment triggers.   

obtaining management’s reconciliation of capitalised 
exploration and evaluation expenditure and agreeing to 
the general ledger; 
reviewing management’s area of interest considerations 
against AASB 6; 
conducting a detailed review of management’s 
assessment of trigger events prepared in accordance 
with AASB 6 including;  
 

tracing projects to statutory registers, exploration 
licenses and third party confirmations to determine 
whether a right of tenure existed; 
enquiry of management regarding their intentions 
to carry out exploration and evaluation activity in 
the relevant exploration area, including review of 
management’s budgeted expenditure; 
understanding whether any data exists to suggest 
that the carrying value of these exploration and 
evaluation assets are unlikely to be recovered 
through development or sale; 

 

 

 

 

 

assessing the accuracy of impairment recorded for the 
year as it pertained to exploration interests; 
evaluating the competence, capabilities and objectivity

statement disclosures.

Responsibilities of the Directors’ for the financial report  
The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in 
accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the Directors 
determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material 
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.  

In preparing the financial report, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability 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 Company/Group or to cease operations, or have 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 at: http://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar1.pdf. This description forms part of our 
auditor’s report.
