REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
PROJECT SUMMARIES
Meteoric Resources is a diversified mineral explorer with copper-gold, iron and diamond projects in Australia and a graphite project under application
in Spain. During the year, Meteoric elected to dilute its interest at the Webb Diamond Joint Venture where exploration continued at the major kimberlite
field. Webb is the first discovery of a large kimberlite field in Australia in more than twenty years. High grade gold and copper hits at Barkly confirmed
the identification of a large copper-gold target at Barkly.
WEBB DIAMOND JOINT VENTURE (Meteoric 19% and right to acquire 16% of E80/4506 – Diluting)
Figure 1
Webb Kimberlite Field, Aeromagnetic Image
During the 2015-2016 financial year, the Joint Venture collected 213 Loam samples that were submitted for detailed analysis. The total weight of
samples collected weighed approximately 23 Tonnes. 19 Microdiamonds were recovered from this extensive loam sampling and infill loam sampling
programmes. 24 microdiamonds have been recovered to date within the joint venture tenements.
The distribution of these microdiamonds is sufficiently spatially coherent to be interpreted as a broad surface microdiamond dispersion anomaly
(Figure 2.). Approximately 80% of the total microdiamonds recovered are located in the northern portion of the project area and of these 75% are
situated within two ‘hot spots’ with areas of 40km2 and 6km2. The larger ‘hot spot’ trends in a NW-SE direction over a distance of 14km and has a
width of 4km. The ‘hot spots’ are both characterised by a greater number of microdiamonds and with larger dimensions up to 0.4mm.
While the significance of this broad microdiamond anomaly which encompasses an area of approximately 150km2 is speculative, the company
remains highly encouraged by the persistence of the anomaly in repeated loam sampling programs, the presence of larger microdiamonds and the
emergence of two ‘hotspot’ areas (Figure 2) where there is a higher incidence of microdiamonds. Within the revised broader microdiamond cluster
(see ASX MEI 28 Oct, 2015) there remain 42 untested kimberlite targets which have been identified from the detailed aeromagnetic survey undertaken
by the Joint Venture in 2014.
To date, the JV has identified 51 kimberlites by drilling from the field of 280 magnetic targets.
Drilling of untested kimberlite targets located within the broad microdiamond cluster in the northern portion of the project area is expected later this
year.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
WARREGO NORTH PROJECT
(Meteoric 100% Subject to Farm-in)
Meteoric holds a granted exploration licence (EL23764, 74.5sq km) over magnetic and gravity anomalies near the old Warrego copper-gold mine
(1.3M ozs gold, 91,000t copper), the largest mine in the Tennant Creek mineral field. Previous exploration results have identified several large high
magnetic susceptibility targets some with pronounced coincident gravity anomalies similar in character to quartz- magnetite-chlorite ironstones
associated with high-grade copper-gold-bismuth mineralisation elsewhere in the mineral field. The target areas are situated north and northwest of
the Warrego mine as shown in Figure 3. The largest of these targets is Parakeet, situated 15km NW of Warrego.
Meteoric has carried out processing and interpretation of ground magnetic, gravity and induced polarisation (IP) data at Parakeet. The processing
includes 3D forward and inversion modelling of the ground magnetic and gravity data as well as 2D modelling of the IP. The Parakeet prospect is
associated with two strong magnetic anomalies comparable in intensity with magnetic anomalies associated with copper gold ore bodies in the mineral
field.
Historical drilling to depths of up to 200m at Parakeet has demonstrated anomalous copper, gold and bismuth values and ironstone alteration
characteristic of Tennant Creek style iron oxide-copper-gold mineralisation. In more detail, the ground magnetic anomalies and associated gravity
anomalies highlight three specific targets at Parakeet. All three targets have recorded historical drill intercepts with anomalous copper, gold or bismuth
values. 3D inversion modelling of the ground magnetic data has identified a further three bodies bringing to six the total number of modelled bodies
at Parakeet with magnetic susceptibility values greater than 0.4 SI units, characteristic of ironstone bodies at Tennant Creek.
Significantly, modelling of the ground magnetics, together with results of down hole magnetic surveys, indicate that the source of the
magnetic anomalies at Parakeet has not been tested by the previous drilling, which appears to have intersected what could be the copper
halo over a large copper-gold system at depth. It should be noted that these targets are interpretive at this stage and there has been insufficient
exploration to estimate a mineral resource and it is uncertain whether further exploration will result in the estimation of a mineral resource.
Interpretation of aeromagnetic data suggests the presence of a strong NW-trending structure through Parakeet which could be a parallel structure to,
or the extension of, the Navigator Fault, a major structure associated with the Warrego deposit, indicating a favourable structural setting for Parakeet.
Additional magnetic and gravity targets which have not been fully tested on EL23764 include Bustard, south of Parakeet and Cuddihy and Pipeline
east of the Warrego granite. Further details on the Parakeet targets are shown in MEI ASX release of 14 May 2014.
Farm-in Agreement with Chalice Gold Mines Ltd
Under the terms of the agreement CGM has a minimum commitment to drill at least one deep diamond drill hole at Parakeet within the first year. The
earn-in has two stages: CGM may earn a 51% interest by sole funding $400,000 within three years and may elect to earn an additional 19% by sole
funding another $400,000 within a further two years. A full form agreement will be completed after CGM has completed its minimum commitment
and confirmed its intention to continue to earn in. Upon CGM earning an interest a contributing joint venture will be formed with normal provisions for
dilution and pre-emptive rights.
High grade Tennant Creek-style copper-gold deposits such as Warrego (7Mt at 8g/t Au and 2% Cu) are very attractive, high value targets. The
directors of Meteoric are most encouraged by the results of the geophysical modelling which indicates potential for a large copper-gold system below
the previous drilling at Parakeet and welcome the association with CGM which provides the opportunity to test this and other attractive targets near
the Warrego mine.

BARKLY
(Meteoric 30%, subject to farmout)
Blaze International Limited (BLZ) is in a Farm-In Joint Venture Agreement with Meteoric Resources NL
(Barkly JV) over the highly prospective Barkly Copper-Gold project. The project is located around
30 km east of the town of Tennant Creek in the Northern Territory (Figure 4).
The Bluebird copper-gold prospect at the Barkly Project is emerging as a significant new discovery for
BLZ. Drilling has identified a Tennant Creek-style copper-gold-bismuth mineralised occurrence at
Bluebird. Mineralisation is open to the east, west, and at depth.
Nine “Bluebird Lookalike” magnetic/gravity exploration targets have been identified within the Barkly JV
exploration licence. The Company believes these targets have the potential to produce further new
discoveries in the area.
Work Completed
A high power DHTEM survey of BBDD0004 was completed during the year. The data generated by the
survey is currently being processed and interpreted. Several subtle electromagnetic responses were
detected by the survey. These will be 3D modelled and targeted for future drilling programs. The copper
sulphides at Bluebird are likely to be moderately conductive and relatively discontinuous, so even subtle
responses could be quite significant.
A drill hole rehabilitation program was also completed during the year. All of the holes drilled by Blaze
International at Bluebird have now been fully rehabilitated as per industry standard practice.
Detailed petrology work on the high grade mineralisation intersected by BBDD0002 was also completed.
This work provided some clarity on the alteration assemblage and mineral associations at Bluebird,
which will help prioritise future exploration programs and economic evaluations.
Field mapping and ground checking of exploration targets was also undertaken.

Test the subtle off-hole conductors generated by the DHTEM survey of BBDD0004
Other Targets With-in the Barkly Project
Reprocessing of magnetic and gravity geophysical datasets earlier in the year allowed the Company to fingerprint the signature of the Bluebird host
ironstone and identify other similar features within the Barkly Project area. A number of targets were generated and ranked based on coincident
magnetic, gravity, and/or geochemical anomalies similar to Bluebird or other deposits in the Tennant Creek Mineral Field (TCMF).
Nine of the highest ranking targets were field checked and mapped during the year. Field observations were positive or neutral over all of the targets
visited. This means that no targets were downgraded by the field observations.
In most cases the targets are obscured by soil cover. This is interpreted as a positive, particularly in the context of Bluebird where the ironstone and
the mineralisation do not develop until at least 40m below surface. There is no expression of the Bluebird mineralisation at surface as the weathering
profile appears to be strongly leached in the top 40m.

PERSEVERANCE
(Meteoric 68.43%, Emmerson Resources 31.57%)
Following grant of a permit to carry out geophysical surveys and drilling, Meteoric is continuing discussions regarding a possible farmout of its interest
in this copper-gold prospect near Bluebird, subject to agreement from its existing joint venture partner.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
CORTEGANA GRAPHITE PROJECT
(Meteoric 100%, application)
During the year Meteoric Resources, at the request of the Huleva Delegation, re-lodged an amended Investigation Permit over several crystalline
flake graphite occurrences in the Aracena Metamorphic Belt, Huelva province. Following discussions with the Delgacion Territorial, Meteoric
Resources reduced the area of the Investigation Permit application from 210 quadriculas to 124 quadriculas shown in Figure 7.
Figure 7
Investigation Permit H14913
Geological research has shown the graphite occurrences in the Aracena Metamorphic Belt to be mainly of the stratabound type and coarsely
crystalline and flaky, with graphite crystals ranging from 0.25-1mm in size. This type of coarse crystalline graphite commands a premium price in the
market and forms an attractive target for exploration and possible development in an area of good infrastructure close to markets.
Graphite has traditionally been considered to be an industrial mineral used in the manufacture of refractories, batteries, steel, brake linings and
lubricants. However, research has shown that coarse crystalline graphite can be processed to form graphene, a product with many extraordinary
properties. Graphene is 200 times stronger than steel by weight, conducts heat and electricity with great efficiency, is nearly transparent and has
special electrical properties. Graphene usage is forecast to expand exponentially in the semiconductor, electronics, battery energy and composite
materials industries. Thus coarse crystalline graphite is now becoming a high technology material.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
Your directors present their report on the Company for the year ended 30 June 2016.
DIRECTORS
The following persons were directors of Meteoric Resources NL (“Meteoric”) during the full year ended 30 June 2016 and up to the date of this report:
Neville Bassett
Graeme Clatworthy
George Sakalidis
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
The principal activities of the Company during the year were to explore mineral tenements in Western Australia, Northern Territory and Spain.
RESULTS FROM OPERATIONS
During the year the Company recorded an operating loss of $940,457 (2015: $413,972).
The operating loss includes $524,100 in respect of “equity-settled share based payments”. This was not a cash outlay and was brought to account
by virtue of a requirement at law. Net of this figure, the operating loss for that year was $416,357.
DIVIDENDS
No amounts have been paid or declared by way of dividend by the Company since the end of the previous financial year and the Directors do not
recommend the payment of any dividend.
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
A review of operations is covered elsewhere in this Annual Report.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic and diluted loss per share for the financial period was 0.54 cents (2015: 0.36 cents).
FINANCIAL POSITION
The Company’s cash position as at 30 June 2016 was $348,156, an increase from the 30 June 2015 cash balance which was $150,992.
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN STATE OF AFFAIRS
During the year, a Placement was effected to persons who qualified to participate in an excluded offer for the purpose of section 708 of the
Corporations Act 2001, including professional and sophisticated investors whereby 48,000,000 shares were issued at $0.008 each resulting in an
amount of $384,000 being raised.
Also during the year, the directors appointed Otsana Capital (“Otsana”) upon commercial terms to act as corporate advisor to the Company. Otsana
agreed to provide corporate/financial advice and early in their term of appointment, the Company entered into a binding Heads of Agreement with
People Post Pty Ltd (the “Uber of couriers”), a company which they had introduced, to acquire all of its issued capital, subject to due diligence (“DD”)
having been successfully conducted. The directors undertook the requisite DD but on 17 March 2016 advised the Australian Securities Exchange
that the parties to the Heads of Agreement had agreed not to proceed with the transaction. The Otsana agreement was thereupon also terminated
and in compliance with the terms of the Otsana agreement, Otsana was paid corporate advisory fees of $20,000 and nominees were issued with two
tranches of shares totalling 26,000,000 ordinary fully paid shares in MEI.
Other than as noted above, there were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Company during the financial period.
MATTERS SUBSEQUENT TO THE END OF THE FINANCIAL YEAR
No material matters have occurred subsequent to the end of the financial year which requires reporting on other than those which have been noted
above or reported to ASX.
LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Likely developments in the operations of the Company and the expected results of those operations in future financial years have not been included
in this report as the directors believe, on reasonable grounds, that the inclusion of such information would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice
to the Company. During the year, the Company reviewed a number of additional opportunities, both local and overseas. To date, the board of directors
(the Board or Board of Directors) has not elected to pursue any of these opportunities and continues to seek and review potential acquisitions that
are aimed at adding shareholder value.
ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES
The Company carries out exploration operations in Australia which are subject to environmental regulations under both Commonwealth and State
legislation. The Company’s exploration manager is responsible for ensuring compliance with regulations. During or since the financial period there
have been no known significant breaches of these regulations.

The Company’s policy for determining the nature and amounts of emoluments of key management personnel is set out below:
Key Management Personnel Remuneration and Incentive Policies
At the date of this report, the Company does not have a separately constituted Remuneration Committee (“Committee”) as all matters normally
considered by such a Committee are dealt with by the full Board. When constituted, its mandate will be to make recommendations to the Board with
respect to appropriate and competitive remuneration and incentive policies (including basis for paying and the quantum of any bonuses), for key
management personnel and others as considered appropriate to be singled out for special attention, which:
motivates them to contribute to the growth and success of the Company within an appropriate control framework;
aligns the interests of key leadership with the interests of the Company’s shareholders;
are paid within any limits imposed by the Constitution and make recommendations to the Board with respect to the need for increases to
any such amount at the Company’s annual general meeting; and
in the case of directors, only permits participation in equity-based remuneration schemes after appropriate disclosure to, due consideration
by and with the approval of the Company’s shareholders.
Non-Executive Directors
Non-executive directors are not provided with retirement benefits other than statutory superannuation entitlements.
To the extent that the Company adopts a remuneration structure for its non-executive directors other than in the form of cash and
superannuation, disclosure shall be made to stakeholders and approvals obtained as required by law and the ASX listing rules.
Incentive Plans and Benefits Programs
The Board, acting in its capacity as a Remuneration Committee, is to:
review and make recommendations concerning long-term incentive compensation plans, including the use of equity-based plans,
administer equity-based and employee benefit plans and discharge any responsibilities under those plans, including making and
authorising grants, in accordance with the terms of those plans;
ensure that, where practicable, incentive plans are designed around appropriate and realistic performance targets that measure relative
performance and provide remuneration when they are achieved; and
review and, if necessary, improve any existing benefit programs established for employees.
Retirement and Superannuation Payments
Prescribed benefits were provided by the Company to all directors by way of superannuation contributions to externally managed complying
superannuation funds during the year. These benefits were paid as superannuation contributions to satisfy (at least) the requirements of the
Superannuation Contribution Guarantee Act and in satisfaction of any salary sacrifice requests. All contributions were made to accumulation
type funds selected by the director and accordingly actuarial assessments were not required.
Relationship between Company Performance and Remuneration
There is no relationship between the financial performance of the Company for the current or previous financial year and the remuneration
of the key management personnel. Remuneration is set having regard to market conditions and encourage the continued services of key
management personnel.
Use of Remuneration Consultants
The Company did not employ the services of any remuneration consultant during the financial year ended 30 June 2016.

NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 30 June 2016
This financial report includes the financial statements and notes of the Company.
NOTE 1
STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Preparation
The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian
Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001.
The financial statements were authorised for issue on 29 September 2016.
The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the Company in the preparation of the financial report.
Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a financial report containing relevant and
reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements
and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of this financial report
are presented below and have been consistently applied unless otherwise stated.
Reporting Basis and Conventions
The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs modified by the revaluation of selected non-current
assets, financial assets and financial liabilities for which the fair value basis of accounting has been applied.
Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis that contemplates normal business activities and the realisation of assets
and extinguishment of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
Cash and cash equivalents on hand as at the date of this report was approximately $190,000.
The going concern basis is dependent upon the Company raising sufficient funds to pay its debts as and when they fall due.
In the Directors’ opinion, at the date of signing the financial report there are reasonable grounds to believe that the matters set out above will be
achieved and have therefore prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.
Should the Directors not achieve the matters set out above, there is significant uncertainty whether the Company will be able to continue as a going
concern. The financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability or classification of recorded asset amounts, nor to the
amounts or classification of liabilities which might be necessary should the Company not be able to continue as a going concern.
Accounting Policies
(a) Revenue
Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account interest rates applicable to the financial asset. All revenue is stated
net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).
(b) Employee Benefits
Provision is made for the Company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by non-casual employees to balance date.
Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability
is settled. There is no liability for annual or long service leave entitlements.
(c)
Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure
All exploration and evaluation expenditure is expensed to Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income as incurred. The
effect of this is to increase the loss incurred from continuing operations as disclosed in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive
Income and to decrease the carrying values of total assets in the Statement of Financial Position. That the carrying value of mineral assets,
as a result of the operation of this policy, is zero does not necessarily reflect the Board’s view as to the market value of that asset.
(d) Acquisition of Assets
The cost method is used for all acquisitions of assets regardless of whether shares or other assets are acquired. Cost is determined as the
fair value of assets given up at the date of acquisition plus costs incidental to the acquisition.
Costs relating to the acquisition of new areas of interest are classified as either exploration and evaluation expenditure or mine properties
based on the stage of development reached at the date of acquisition.
(e) Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services
is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or
as part of the expense item as applicable. Receivables and payables in the Statement of Financial Position are shown inclusive of GST.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the Statement
of Financial Position.
- 24 -
NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 30 June 2016
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities,
which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.
(f)
Income Tax
The income tax expense for the year comprises current income tax expense and deferred tax expense.
Current income tax expense charged to the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income is the tax payable on taxable income
calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at reporting date. Current tax liabilities and assets are
therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to or 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, if any in fact are brought to account.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and
their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax
deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business
combination, 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, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at reporting date. 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.
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 legally enforceable
right of set-off exists, 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.
(g) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, and other short-term highly liquid investments with original
maturities of three months or less.
(h)
Impairment of Assets
At each reporting date, the Company 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 Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. This policy has no application where
paragraph (c) (Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure) applies.
(i)
Earnings per Share
(i)
(ii)
Basic Earnings per Share – Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing the loss from continuing operations after related income
tax expense by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial period.
Diluted Earnings per Share – Options that are considered to be dilutive are taken into consideration when calculating the diluted earnings
per share.
(j)
Property, plant and equipment
Each class of plant, equipment and motor vehicles is carried at cost or fair value as indicated less, where applicable, any accumulated
depreciation and impairment losses.
Plant, equipment and motor vehicles are measured on the cost basis.
The carrying amounts of plant, equipment and motor vehicles are reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable
amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the
asset’s employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining
recoverable amounts.
Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all plant, equipment and motor vehicles are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the asset’s useful life to the
Company commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.
The depreciation rates used for the class of plant, equipment and motor vehicle depreciable assets range between 20% and 100% .
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each Statement of Financial Position date.
- 25 -
NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 30 June 2016
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated
recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the
Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve
relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.
(k)
Financial Instruments
Recognition and Initial Measurement
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions to the instrument. For
financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the Company commits itself to either the purchase or sale of the asset.
Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, except where the instrument is classified at fair value through
profit and loss, in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit and loss immediately.
Classification and Subsequent Measurement
Finance instruments are subsequently measured at either of fair value, amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, or cost. Fair
value represents the amount for which an asset could be exchanged or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties. Where
available, quoted prices in an active market are used to determine fair value. In other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted.
Amortised cost is calculated as:
the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition;
less principal repayments;
plus or minus the cumulative amortisation of the difference, if any, between the amount initially
calculated using the effective interest method; and
recognised and the maturity amount
less any reduction for impairment.
The effective interest method is used to allocate interest income or interest expense over the relevant period and is equivalent to the rate that
exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts (including fees, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the
expected life (or when this cannot be reliably predicted, the contractual term) of the financial instrument to the net carrying amount of the
financial asset or financial liability. Revisions to expected future net cash flows will necessitate an adjustment to the carrying value with a
consequential recognition of an income or expense in profit and loss.
The Company does not designate any interests in joint venture entities as being subject to the requirements of accounting standards specifically
applicable to financial instruments.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are
subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Held-to-maturity investments
Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable payments, and it is the
Company’s intention to hold these investments to maturity. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are not suitable to be classified into other categories of financial
assets due to their nature, or they are designated as such by management. They comprise investments in the equity of other entities where
there is neither a fixed maturity or determinable payments.
They are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in such fair value (i.e. gains and losses) recognised in other comprehensive income
(except for impairment losses and foreign exchange gains and losses). When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss
pertaining to that asset previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified into profit and loss.
Available-for-sale financial assets are included in current assets where they are expected to be sold within 12 months after the end of the
reporting period. All other financial assets are classified as non-current assets.
Financial liabilities
Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Fair Value
Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value
for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models. The expression
“fair value” – and derivatives thereof – wherever used in this report bears the meaning ascribed to that expression by the Australian Accounting
Standards Board. “Fair value” commonly does not reflect realisable value and the Board of Directors does not represent that stated fair values
reflect their view of market or realisable values. This observation is over-riding and shall prevail over any inconsistent possible interpretation.

NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 30 June 2016
Impairment
At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. In the case
of available-for-sale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether an impairment
has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in the profit or loss.
Financial Guarantees
Where material, financial guarantees issued, which require the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs
because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due, are recognised as a financial liability at fair value on initial recognition.
The guarantee is subsequently measured at the higher of the best estimate of the obligation and the amount initially recognised less, when
appropriate, cumulative amortisation in accordance with AASB 118: Revenue. Where the entity gives guarantees in exchange for a fee,
revenue is recognised under AASB 118.
The fair value of financial guarantee contracts has been assessed using a probability weighted discounted cash flow approach. The probability
has been based on:
the likelihood of the guaranteed party defaulting in a year period;
the proportion of the exposure that is not expected to be recovered due to the guaranteed party defaulting; and
the maximum loss exposed if the guaranteed party were to default.
De-recognition
Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expires or the asset is transferred to another party
whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities
are derecognised where the related obligations are either discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying value of the
financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets
or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.
(l)
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an
outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.
(m) Leases
Lease payments for operating leases (where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor) are charged as an expense in the
periods in which they are incurred.
Lease incentives under operating leases, if any, are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease
term.
(n) Contributed Equity
Ordinary share capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Company. Any transaction costs arising on the issue
of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the share proceeds received.
(o) Share-based Payments and Value Attribution to Equity Remuneration/Benefits
Share-based compensation benefits provided to directors are approved in general meeting by members. Share-based benefits provided to
non-directors are approved by the Board of Directors and form part of that employee’s remuneration package.
The International Financial Reporting Standards specifies that a valuation technique must be applied in determining the fair value of employees’
or directors’ stock options as at their grant date. No particular model is specified.
In respect of share options granted to company officers, the (theoretical) fair value is recognised upon vesting as an employee benefit expense
with a corresponding increase in equity. The theoretical fair value of the option is independently calculated at the date of request for approval
by the shareholders taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted, the effects of non-transferability,
exercise restrictions and behavioural considerations. Upon the exercise of options, the balance of the share-based payments reserve relating
to those options is transferred to share capital.
In respect of share options granted to non-company officers, the (theoretical) fair value is recognised upon vesting as an expense with a
corresponding increase in equity. The theoretical fair value of the option is calculated at the date of grant taking into account the terms and
conditions upon which the options were granted, the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions and behavioural considerations using
the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model, an industry accepted method of valuing equity instruments. Upon the exercise of options, the balance
of the share-based payments reserve relating to those options is transferred to share capital.
(p) Comparative Figures
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial
period.
(q) Segment Reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner that is consistent with the internal reporting to the chief operating decision makers which have
been identified by the company as the Board of Directors.

Critical Accounting Estimates, Assumptions, and Judgements
The directors evaluate estimates and judgements 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 from within the Company.
Taxation
Balances disclosed in the financial statements and the notes thereto related to taxation are based on best estimates by directors. These
estimates take into account both the financial performance and position of the Company as they pertain to current income tax legislation and
the directors understanding thereof. No adjustment has been made for pending or future taxation legislation. The current tax position
represents the directors’ best estimate pending an assessment being received from the Australian Taxation Office.
Environmental Issues
Balances disclosed in the financial statements and notes thereto are not adjusted for any pending or enacted environmental legislation and
the directors understanding thereof. At the current stage of the Company’s development and its current environmental impact, the directors
believe such treatment is reasonable and appropriate.
Share based payments
Share-based payment transactions, in the form of options to acquire ordinary shares, are ascribed a fair value using the Black-Scholes Option
Pricing Model. This model uses assumptions and estimates as inputs.
(s) New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods
There are a number of new Accounting standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are not yet mandatorily applicable to the
Company and have not been applied in preparing these financial statements. The Company does not plan to adopt these standards early.
These standards are not expected to have a material impact on the Company in the current or future reporting periods.
NOTE 2 OPERATING SEGMENTS
Segment Information
Identification of reportable segments
The Company has identified that it operates in only one segment based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors
(chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources. The Company's principal activity is mineral
exploration.
Revenue and assets by geographical region
The Company's revenue is received from sources and assets which are located wholly within Australia.
Major customers
Due to the nature of its operations, the Company does not provide products and services.

TENEMENT EXPENDITURES CONDITIONS AND LEASING COMMITTMENTS
NOTE 15
The Company has certain obligations to perform minimum exploration work on the tenements in which it has an interest. These obligations may in
some circumstances, be varied or deferred. Tenement rentals and minimum expenditure obligations which may be varied or deferred on application
are expected to be met in the normal course of business. The minimum statutory expenditure requirement on the granted tenements for the next
twelve months amounts to $683,000. Of this amount, $663,000 is expected to be met by JV participants as a result of various negotiated joint ventures.
The Company has the ability to diminish its exposure under these commitments through the application of a variety of techniques including applying
for exemptions from the regulatory expenditure obligations, surrendering tenements, relinquishing portions of tenements or entering into farm-out
agreements whereby third parties bear the burdens of such obligation in whole or in part.
In conjunction with Magnetic Resources NL, the Company has leased office premises and car-parking facilities at 22 Delhi Street West Perth. The
lease and car-parking licence is for a three-year term expiring on 9 April 2017. The Company’s portion of the commitment for the year ended 30 June
2016 amounts to $39,204 (net of GST) with the total residual commitment from 1 July 2016 until the expiry of the lease (as based on the current
monthly payments) is $30,396. At present, the office and car-parking has been sublet on a monthly basis.
JOINT VENTURES
NOTE 16
The Company is or has been party to a number of unincorporated exploration joint ventures which involves the “farming out” (diluting) of its interest
in selected tenements. The following is a list of unincorporated exploration joint ventures under which the Company has diluted and may yet dilute
its original interest:
Name of Joint Venture and Project
Geocrystal JV – Webb Diamond Project
Blaze JV – Barkly Project
Emmerson/Santexco JV – Perseverance Project

All or some of the tenements in which the Company has an interest are or may be affected by native title.
The Company is not in a position to assess the likely effect of any native title impacting the Company.
The existence of native title and heritage issues represent, as a general proposition, a serious threat to explorers and miners, not only in terms of
delaying the grant of tenements and the progression of exploration development and mining operations, but also in terms of costs arising consequent
upon dealing with aboriginal interest groups, claims for native title and the like.
As a general proposition, a tenement holder must obtain the consent of the owner of freehold before conducting operations on the freehold land.
Unless it already has secured such rights, there can be no assurance that the Company will secure rights to access those portions (if any) of the
Tenements encroaching freehold land but, importantly, native title is extinguished by the grant of freehold so if and whenever the Tenements encroach
freehold the Company is in the position of not having to abide by the Native Title Act in respect of the area of encroachment albeit aboriginal heritage
matters still be of concern.

EQUITY-SETTLED SHARE BASED PAYMENTS
On 9 September 2015, 9,000,000 share options were granted to directors and the company secretary to take up ordinary shares. The options are
exercisable on or before 9 September 2020 at $0.012 each, are not listed, hold no voting or dividend rights, are transferable and vested immediately
upon issue. The options were calculated by an independent valuer using the Hull-White binomial algorithm. Each option was ascribed a fair value of
$0.0025 using the following factors:
Exercise price:
Life of option:
Expected share price volatility:
Risk-free interest rate:

agreement. The options are exercisable on or before 30 June 2018 at $0.02 each, are not listed, hold no voting or dividend rights, are transferable
and vested immediately upon issue. Each option was ascribed a fair value of $0.0012, calculated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model

As reported in the Directors’ Report, nominees of Otsana Capital were issued with a total of 26,000,000 ordinary fully paid shares. The deemed
consideration of the first tranche of 15,000,000 shares was valued using a Volume Weighted Average Price (“VWAP”) of $0.0143, a calculated
value of $214,500. The deemed consideration of the second and final tranche of 11,000,000 shares was valued using a VWAP of $0.0261, a

Tenements are commonly (but not invariably) affected by native title.
The Company is not in a position to assess the likely effect of any native title impacting the Company.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS DISCLOSURE
(a)
Financial Risk Management Policies
The Company’s financial instruments consist of deposits with banks, receivables, available-for-sale financial assets and payables.
Risk management policies are approved and reviewed by the Board. The use of hedging derivative instruments is not contemplated at this
stage of the Company’s development.
Specific Financial Risk Exposure and Management
The main risks the Company is exposed to through its financial instruments, are interest rate and liquidity risks.
Interest Rate Risk
Exposure to interest rate risk arises on financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at reporting date whereby a future change in interest
rates will affect future cash flows or the fair value of fixed rate financial instruments.
Liquidity Risk
The Company manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows, cash reserves, liquid investments, receivables and payables.
Capital Risk
The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern so that they may continue to
provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.
Due to the nature of the Company’s activities being mineral exploration, the Company does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the
primary source of funding being equity raisings. Therefore, the focus of the Company’s capital risk management is the current working capital
position against the requirements of the Company to meet exploration programmes and corporate overheads. The Company’s strategy is to
ensure appropriate liquidity is maintained to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raising as
required.
The working capital position of the Company at 30 June 2016 and 30 June 2015 was as follows:

Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly
(derived from prices) (Level 2); and
Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) (Level 3).

demonstrates the effect on the current year results and equity which could result from a change in this risk.

be as follows:
Change in loss – increase/(decrease):
-
-
Increase in interest rate by 2%
Decrease in interest rate by 2%
Change in equity – increase/(decrease):
