MUSGRAVE MINERALS LTD ANNUAL REPORT 2019
PAGE 1
CHAIRMAN’S LETTER
On behalf of the Board of Directors, it is my pleasure
to present the 2019 Annual Report for Musgrave
Minerals Limited (“Musgrave” or “Company”).
The Company’s focus continues to be on the Cue
Project (“Cue”) in the well-endowed, gold producing
Murchison region of Western Australia where our
main objective is to significantly grow our gold
resources through extensional and greenfield
exploration drilling. Exploration success continued
through 2019, the main highlight being the discovery
of extensive gold mineralisation under transported
cover at Lake Austin North.
The potential of Lake Austin North is highlighted by
drill intersections received to date, such as 242m
@ 1.0g/t Au, including 45m @ 3.3g/t Au (see ASX
announcement 3 December 2018, “Diamond Drilling
Confirms Significant Gold Discovery at Lake Austin
North” ). There is still a lot of work to be completed
at Lake Austin as our 2019 drilling campaign
identified basement gold mineralisation over a strike
extent of more than 500m and this large gold zone
is still open along strike and at depth. Also, the Lake
Austin North discovery is within a more than 3km
long, regolith gold anomaly and regional aircore
drilling has identified a broad zone of more than
8km in combined strike of basement gold targets
that require follow-up basement drill testing. This
large exploration program will require significant
long term funding but we remain confident that Lake
Austin has the potential for further discoveries and is
host to a significant gold system.
In March 2019, The Company entered an option
agreement to acquire 100% of the non-alluvial gold
rights to the Mainland Project in the Cue region.
Mainland lies along strike, to the north of Lake
Austin and produced significant quantities of alluvial
gold over the years but has only seen very limited
basement drilling.
At the Lena deposit to the south of Lake Austin, the
team identified several high-grade shoots that have
the potential to significantly grow the gold resource
beyond the current JORC estimate. Drilling at both
Mainland and Lena commenced in the new financial
year and both prospects are delivering excellent,
early results.
Given the ongoing drilling success at Cue, the current
resource figure of 440koz of gold is expected to grow.
As stated above, Cue is located in the gold producing
Murchison region of Western Australia, a region
that is host to four operating gold plants including
Westgold’s Tuckabianna plant.
At the end of the last financial year Musgrave and
Westgold agreed to a non-binding Term Sheet
that provided the scope on which a formal Mine
Management and Profit Sharing Agreement could
be negotiated. Although these negotiations did not
lead to a formal agreement, the Company continues
to advance its internal optimisation and development
studies to assist in forecasting production goals and
potential development pathways for the project.
In the meantime, Musgrave will continue to look
at funding options to capitalise on the exploration
upside and accelerate drilling programs across a
range of high priority targets including Mainland,
Lena and Lake Austin North, with the aim of making
further high-grade gold discoveries that could
support a stand-alone operation or alternatively be
mined in partnership with an existing local producer.
The Company completed a capital raising in
December 2018 to raise $5.5M through a share
placement to institutional and sophisticated
investors. The Placement attracted several new
investors to the Company and was supported by
many existing shareholders. I would like to take this
opportunity, on behalf of the Board, to thank all our
Shareholders for their ongoing support.
I would also like to thank the staff, management,
contractors and my fellow directors for their ongoing
efforts. We are committed to progressing the
Company by advancing targets towards discovery
and development through corporate deals, high-
quality exploration and technical studies for the
benefit of all Musgrave shareholders.

MUSGRAVE MINERALS LTD ANNUAL REPORT 2019
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Musgrave Minerals Ltd (“Musgrave” or “the
Company”) (ASX:MGV) is an Australian resources
company focused on gold exploration and
development at the Cue Project in the Murchison
Province of Western Australia.
Exploration activities for the financial year have been
focused on gold exploration at Cue. The Company
has had significant exploration success during the
year with the discovery of high grade gold under
transported cover at Lake Austin North.
Musgrave has an estimated 440koz of gold in
resources on the Cue Project and completed more
than 30,000m of drilling during the year. The total
Indicated and Inferred JORC Mineral Resources on
the project are; 4.83 Mt @ 2.84g/t Au for 440,000
ounces of gold (see ASX announcement 15 October
2018, “Annual Report”).
The Break of Day and Lena Mineral Resource
estimates are being used as the basis for in-house
near term development studies.
Musgrave’s intent is to secure exploration finance,
grow the resource base and develop a low-cost
operation to enable the Company to self-fund
exploration and growth through continuous
discovery.
2019 was a successful year for Musgrave, with a very
positive and extensive lake drilling campaign, the
discovery of gold mineralisation at Lake Austin North
and the divestment of the base metal interests on
our northern Cue tenements. Our focus continues to
be on the Cue Project (“Cue”) which is located in the
well-endowed, gold producing Murchison region of
Western Australia.
The Company will look to de-risk our funding
requirements and expanding our gold resources
through extensional and new greenfield exploration
drilling at Cue. Exceptional hits such as 242m @
1.0g/t Au, including 45m @ 3.3g/t Au (see ASX
announcement 3 December 2018, “Diamond Drilling
Confirms Significant Gold Discovery at Lake Austin
North”) have highlighted the potential of the Lake
Austin North area with basement gold mineralisation
now confirmed over a strike extent of more than
500m where it is still open along strike and at depth.
The Lake Austin North prospect is within a 3km long
regolith gold anomaly which is still largely untested.
Regional aircore drilling on Lake Austin has identified
more than 8km of basement gold targets within
multiple zones of strong regolith gold anomalism
that require follow-up basement drill testing. Secure
long term funding will be required to fully test the
gold potential of these new under cover targets.
At Lena, the team has identified a number of high-
grade shoots that have the potential to significantly
grow the gold resource beyond the current
resource estimate. An analysis of historical data has
highlighted a number of intercepts below the existing
resource including, 6.0m @ 31.1g/t Au (MGDD3) and
6.2m @ 18.6g/t Au (MGDD2) (see ASX announcement
12 July 2019, “Opportunity to Extend Lena High-
Grade Resource at Cue”). A drilling program has
commenced to test these new target zones with
positive results returned in early drilling.

Musgrave also has tenement applications in the
Musgrave Geological Province of South Australia
(Figure 1).
Corporate
During the year, Musgrave spent $6.0 million on
exploration activities.
In March 2019, Musgrave entered into an option
agreement to acquire 100% of the non-alluvial gold
rights to the Mainland Project in the Cue region.
The Mainland area has seen very limited basement
drilling but produced significant quantities of alluvial
gold over the years. Drilling has commenced at
Mainland with encouraging early drill results.
Musgrave successfully completed a capital raising
in December 2018 to raise $5.5M through a share
placement to institutional and sophisticated
investors.
MUSGRAVE MINERALS LTD ANNUAL REPORT 2019

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
In February 2019 the Company executed a Binding
Term Sheet with Cyprium Australia Pty Ltd
(“Cyprium”) regarding an option, earn-in and joint
venture on the non-gold rights over the northern
tenements at the Cue Project in Western Australia’s
Murchison region. Cyprium made an initial payment
of $10,000 for an exclusive 90-day option period
and on 31 May 2019 exercised the option to earn
an 80% interest by the payment to the Company of
$250,000 worth of shares in ARC Exploration Limited
(subsequently renamed Cyprium Metals Limited
ASX:CYM). Cyprium is required to spend $2 million
on exploration within two years to complete the
acquisition of the 80% interest. Musgrave will retain
a 20% free-carried interest to the completion of a
definitive feasibility study.
In May 2018 Musgrave and Westgold agreed to a
non-binding Term Sheet that provided the scope on
which a formal Mine Management and Profit Sharing
Agreement could be negotiated. Although these
negotiations did not lead to a formal agreement,
the Company continues to advance its internal
optimisation and development studies to assist in
defining a development pathway for the project.
Musgrave will continue to maximise its exploration
strengths and accelerate drilling across high priority
targets including Mainland, Lena, Break of Day and
Lake Austin North, with the aim of making further
high-grade gold discoveries that could support a
stand-alone operation or alternatively be mined in
partnership with an existing producer.
During the year the Company continued to refine
its exploration portfolio, applying for additional
tenements in the Cue region and divesting the
Corunna Project in South Australia.
After the sale of its Fraser Range tenements in
February 2017, Musgrave holds 10 million shares and
10 million unlisted options in Legend Mining Limited,
currently valued at approximately $350,000.
The Company successfully secured an Exploration
Incentive Scheme (“EIS”) co-funded drilling grant of
$150,000 for the Cue Project to drill test gold targets
in 2019-20 on Lake Austin.
Events since the end of the financial year
On 17 September 2019 Musgrave announced that
it had entered into an Earn-In and Joint Venture
Exploration Agreement with Evolution Mining
Limited over a select area of Lake Austin and
surrounds (JV Area) of the Cue Project in the
Murchison District of Western Australia. The JV Area
excludes all the known resources including Lena and
Break of Day and the Mainland option area. Evolution
can earn a 75% interest in the JV Area by sole
funding A$18 million on exploration over a five year
term with a minimum commitment of A$4 million
in the first two years. Musgrave will manage the JV
during the initial period. As part of the Agreement,
Evolution has agreed to subscribe for 18,587,361
ordinary shares in Musgrave through a share
placement (“Placement”) at a price of $0.0807 per
share. The placement was set at the 30-day VWAP for
Musgrave shares and represents a holding of 4.59%
(undiluted) in the Company.
There has not arisen in the interval between the end
of the financial year and the date of this report any
other item, transaction or event of a material and
unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the Directors,
to affect significantly the operations, the results of
those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group
in future financial years.
Exploration Activities
Musgrave continued its successful exploration
at Cue with a new gold discovery at Lake Austin
North (Figure 2) where encouraging basement gold
mineralisation was intersected over a strike extent of
more than 500m, below a regolith (weathered rock)
gold halo that extends for a strike length of more
than 3km. This broader target area remains untested
with further basement drilling set to continue in early
2020.

Drilling results from the new Lake Austin North target
continue to be encouraging with more than 8km of
strike of basement targets now identified, supporting
our belief that there is a large gold system buried
beneath the salt lake. Options to fund this large scale
ongoing salt lake exploration are currently being
considered (see MGV ASX release dated 20/08/2019).
An initial drill program has been completed at the
newly acquired Mainland Project with high-grade
gold intersected at Consols (3m @ 5.4g/t Au) where it
remains open.
At Lena, a reassessment of historical drilling data has
highlighted a 500m long high-grade gold shoot with
significant down plunge potential. Follow-up drilling
has commenced returning highly encouraging first
assay results including 4m @ 13.1g/t Au (see MGV
ASX release 20 August 2019, “High-Grade Gold
Intersected at Lena and Mainland, Cue Project”).
Drilling is continuing.

A significant exploration program is planned for the
coming year with the objective to grow the resource
base and progress development studies to define a
clear path to gold production.
Murchison
Gold Focus
Musgrave continued to sharpen its focus on gold in
the Murchison with the acquisition of the Mainland
Project in February 2019 and the divestment of the
non-gold rights to the northern Cue tenure (Figure 3)
to Cyprium Australia Pty Ltd.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Lake Austin North, with the aim of expanding the
current resources and making further high-grade
gold discoveries that could support a stand-alone
operation or alternatively be mined in partnership
with an existing producer. There are six gold plants
within the district (Figure 4) and the Great Northern
Highway runs within 3km of the existing Cue gold
resources.

Development Options
Following the expiry of the non-binding Term Sheet
with Westgold, the Company has focussed on
internal studies to optimise and assist in forecasting
production goals and potential development
pathways for the Cue project. Musgrave has been
granted a 5C water extraction licence, and is
progressing mine permitting at Break of Day and
Lena.
Musgrave will continue to maximise its exploration
strengths and accelerate drilling across high priority
targets including Mainland, Lena, Break of Day and
Regional Drilling - Lake Austin

Lena and Break of Day
The Lena deposit has a JORC 2012 resource of
2,682kT @ 1.77g/t Au for 153koz Au (see MGV ASX
release 15 October 2018, “Annual Report”) which is
only estimated to a maximum vertical depth of 160m
on Lena Main lode (Figure 5) and more shallowly on
the peripheral lodes.
PAGE 6
MUSGRAVE MINERALS LTD ANNUAL REPORT 2019
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
The Lena deposit consists of a number of gold
lodes, with some having significant high-grade
depth potential. Interpretation of historical drill data
has identified a 500m-long, high-grade southerly
plunging shoot on the main Lena lode that remains
open at depth below the current JORC resource.
A number of historical high-grade diamond drill
intercepts lie within this interpreted extension of the
high-grade gold lode (Figure 6) including:
3.1m @ 16.9g/t Au from 304.5m down hole
(MGDD1) including;
o
1.0m @ 46.5g/t Au from 304.5m down hole
6.2m @ 18.6g/t Au from 372.2m down hole
(MGDD2)
6.0m @ 31.1g/t Au from 354.8m down hole
(MGDD3) including;
o
0.6m @ 206.0g/t Au from 358.9m down
hole
3.0m @ 25.2g/t Au from 364.9m down hole
(MGDD9)
4.3m @ 14.1g/t Au from 367.9m down hole
(MGDD12)
2.0m @ 82.0g/t Au from 220.0m down hole
(MGDD21)
(see MGV ASX release 12 July 2019, “Opportunity to
Extend Lena High-Grade Resource at Cue”)
The majority of this historical drilling was undertaken
by Perilya in the 1990’s. These intercepts were not
incorporated in the most recent resource estimate
due to the broad nature of the drill hole spacing. An
infill drilling program has commenced at Lena with
the goal of significantly growing the resource.
The current program will consist of a combination
of RC (pre-collars) and diamond drilling to better
define and infill this high-grade gold shoot below
the existing resource. The aim of the program is to
improve the geological confidence and demonstrate
continuity of the mineralisation by reducing the drill
spacing to enable an upgrade of the Lena resource
estimate.
“The upside at Lena is significant with drilling
confirming high-grade gold mineralisation
below the existing resource that remains
open down plunge.”
Initial Lena follow-up drill results have been
encouraging with intercepts including:
1m @ 25.7g/t Au from 110m down hole which
is approximately 50m vertically beneath the
existing resource on the Eastern lode, and
24m @ 3.2g/t Au from 140m down hole
including;
o
4m @ 13.1g/t Au from 151m
approximately 5m below the existing
resource on the Main Lena lode (Figure 5
and 6)
(see MGV ASX release 20 August 2019, “High-Grade
Gold Intersected at Lena and Mainland, Cue Project”)

Mainland
Following the execution of an Option Agreement to
acquire the Mainland tenements near Cue (Figure
2) in March 2019, the Company completed an
initial RC drilling program to test three high-priority
targets (Figure 7) in late June 2019. The drilling
was successful returning 3m @ 5.4g/t Au from 74m
down hole (19MORC008) (see MGV ASX release 20
August 2019, “High-Grade Gold Intersected at Lena
and Mainland, Cue Project”). The intercept is in the
western most drill hole and is open to the west and
at depth.
The initial targets drill tested at Mainland relate to a
series of historical workings with limited historical
drill testing. The Mainland Prospect area covers the
northern extension of the shear corridor that hosts
Musgrave’s Break of Day and Lena gold deposits and
the Lake Austin North prospect (Figure 2).
Mainland has a long history of alluvial (historical and
recent) and high-grade basement gold production

Lake Austin - Regional
As part of a significant focus on Lake Austin
during the year, Musgrave completed a regional
aircore drilling program to obtain geological and
geochemical information to integrate with new
detailed geophysical data to provide vectors to focus
basement drilling and make new gold discoveries.
In addition to the extensive Lake Austin North
A-Zone target, multiple zones of anomalous regolith
gold have also been identified sub-parallel to the
A-Zone, many of which have an individual strike
of more than 1km (Figures 8 and 9) and are all yet
to be tested with basement drilling. Some are still
open and further drilling is required to define their
limits. The combined basement strike potential of
the Lake Austin North system is now over 8km with
only ~500m of this potential tested with basement
drilling to date. This equates to approximately 6% of
the basement target zone tested to date, highlighting
the significant upside potential of this gold system,
which will require significant long term funding to
properly test.
Many of the aircore drill holes terminated in
mineralisation highlighting the possible proximity to
basement gold mineralisation and the necessity for
further drill testing. A detailed regional aeromagnetic
survey covering the entire package of southern
Cue tenements has recently been completed and is
currently being processed and integrated into the
targeting model to prioritise zones for further drilling.
View South through old circa 1900 building,
Mainland area, Cue
dating back to circa 1900, with significant untested
basement gold potential. Multiple new targets have
been generated for drill testing during a larger phase
two drilling program scheduled to commence in the
December 2019 quarter.
Historical records indicate that the main underground
mines at Mainland produced 20,148oz gold from
1897-1901 and 1925-1930 at an average grade of
69.2g/t Au *.

Western Australia, Record 1970/7, Table 1.
Lake Austin North
During the year the Company made the significant
discovery of broad intervals of basement gold
mineralisation at Lake Austin North. Aircore drilling
has extended the Lake Austin North A-Zone gold
target, located approximately 3km north of Break
of Day/Lena to a strike of over 3km where it is still
open to the north and south (Figure 8). This extensive
gold regolith ‘halo’ follows the tonalite-mafic
contact along a major shear zone, the Lena-Break
of Day shear corridor. Only ~500m of the A-Zone
basement target has been drilled to date leaving a
large, prospective 2.5km zone, as yet untested with
basement drilling, below the transported cover.
The geological model for A-Zone is continuing
to develop with the mineralisation characterised
by high-strain (typically higher grade gold) zones
surrounded by crackle breccia zones (typically lower
grade gold) (Figure 10).
MUSGRAVE MINERALS LTD ANNUAL REPORT 2019
PAGE 9
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Aircore drilling is a reconnaissance exploration
technique used to better define basement geology
below the lake cover and provides a direct detection
geochemical tool to define areas of gold anomalism
for follow-up basement drilling at depth. The aircore
technique can only effectively drill to the top of fresh
rock through the lake clays and oxidised rock that
is the Archaean regolith. Low-grade aircore results
can provide a geochemical indication of higher-
grade mineralisation in the basement beneath as is
commonly seen throughout the Western Australian
Yilgarn region.

MUSGRAVE MINERALS LTD ANNUAL REPORT 2019
DIRECTORS’ REPORT
Your Directors present their report on the
consolidated entity consisting of Musgrave Minerals
Limited (“the Company”) and its subsidiary (“the
Group” or “the Consolidated Entity”) at the end of
the year ended 30 June 2019.
DIRECTORS
The following persons were Directors of the
Company during the whole of the financial year and
up to the date of this report:
Mr Graham Ascough, Non-Executive Chairman
Mr Robert Waugh, Managing Director
Ms Kelly Ross, Non-Executive Director
Mr John Percival, Non-Executive Director
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
During the year, the principal continuing activities of
the Group consisted of:
exploration of mineral tenements, both on a
joint venture basis and by the Group in its own
right, with the intent to progress to development
in the near to mid-term;
development studies on existing resources;
continuing to seek extensions of areas held and
to seek out new areas with mineral potential;
and
evaluating results received through surface
sampling, geophysical surveys and drilling
activities carried out during the year.
FINANCIAL RESULTS
The consolidated loss of the Group after providing
for income tax for the year ended 30 June 2019 was
$1,329,040 (2018: $189,475).
DIVIDENDS
No dividends have been paid or declared since the
start of the financial year. No recommendation for
the payment of a dividend has been made by the
Directors.
OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL REVIEW
Information on the operations of the Group and its
prospects is set out in the “Review of Operations”
section of this Report.
FINANCIAL
Exploration and evaluation costs totalling $336,589
(2018: $41,108) were impaired during the year. The
impaired exploration and evaluation costs primarily
comprise previously capitalised costs in relation to
the Company’s Corunna Project (EL5497) in South
Australia.
As at 30 June 2019, the Group had net assets of
$20,092,444 (2018: $16,086,195) including cash and
cash equivalents of $3,543,732 (2018: $5,230,122).
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE STATE OF AFFAIRS
Significant changes in the state of affairs of the
Group during the financial year were as follows:
Exploration continues to be a major focus for the
Company with exceptional drilling results at the Cue
Project as discussed in the Review of Operations
section of this report.
On 19 December 2018, the Company completed a
placement to corporate, institutional, professional
and sophisticated investors of 59,782,609 ordinary
shares at an issue price of 9.2 cents per share raising
$5,500,000 before costs.
In February 2019, the Company executed a
Binding Term Sheet with Cyprium Australia Pty Ltd
(“Cyprium”) regarding an option, earn-in and joint
venture on the non-gold rights over the northern
tenements at the Cue Project in Western Australia’s
Murchison region. Cyprium made an initial payment
of $10,000 for an exclusive 90-day option period
and on 31 May 2019 exercised the option to earn
an 80% interest by the payment to the Company of
$250,000 worth of shares in ARC Exploration Limited
(subsequently renamed Cyprium Metals Limited
(ASX:CYM)). Cyprium is required to spend $2 million
on exploration within two years to acquire the 80%
interest. Musgrave will retain a 20% free-carried
interest to the completion of a definitive feasibility
study.
In March 2019, the Company entered into an Option
Agreement (“Agreement”) to acquire the non-alluvial
gold rights to the Mainland Project which is located
within the boundaries of the Company’s Cue Gold
Project. Musgrave paid $125,000 for a 100% interest
in the tenements (excluding the vendor’s interest
in alluvial gold) with a further $100,000 due within
18 months and an additional $300,000 to be paid
as milestone payments in Musgrave shares or cash
(at the Company’s discretion) before the fourth
anniversary of the Agreement. The vendor will be
entitled to a 1% gross royalty on any gold produced
by the Company from the tenements (excluding any
alluvial gold).
In March 2019, the non-binding Term Sheet with
Westgold Resources Limited to explore the potential
profit sharing development of Lena and Break of Day
expired. Westgold remains a substantial shareholder.
There were no other significant changes in the state
of affairs of the Group during the financial year.
EVENTS SINCE THE END OF THE FINANCIAL YEAR
On 17 September 2019 Musgrave announced that
it had entered into an Earn-In and Joint Venture
Exploration Agreement with Evolution Mining
Limited over a select area of Lake Austin and
MUSGRAVE MINERALS LTD ANNUAL REPORT 2019
PAGE 15
DIRECTORS’ REPORT
surrounds (JV Area) of the Cue Project in the
Murchison District of Western Australia. The JV Area
excludes all the known resources including Lena and
Break of Day and the Mainland option area. Evolution
can earn a 75% interest in the JV Area by sole
funding A$18 million on exploration over a five year
term with a minimum commitment of A$4 million
in the first two years. Musgrave will manage the JV
during the initial period. As part of the Agreement,
Evolution has agreed to subscribe for 18,587,361
ordinary shares in Musgrave through a share
placement (“Placement”) at a price of $0.0807 per
share. The placement was set at the 30-day VWAP for
Musgrave shares and represents a holding of 4.59%
(undiluted) in the Company.
There has not arisen in the interval between the end
of the financial year and the date of this report any
other item, transaction or event of a material and
unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the Directors,
to affect significantly the operations, the results of
those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group
in future financial years.
LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
The Directors are not aware of any developments
that might have a significant effect on the operations
of the Group in subsequent financial years not
already disclosed in this report.
ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION
The Group is subject to significant environmental
regulation in respect of its exploration activities.
Tenements in Western Australia and South Australia
are granted subject to adherence to environmental
conditions with strict controls on clearing, including
a prohibition on the use of mechanised equipment
or development without the approval of the relevant
Government agencies, and with rehabilitation
required on completion of exploration activities.
These regulations are controlled by the Department
of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (Western
Australia) and the Department of State Development
(South Australia).
which requires entities to report annual greenhouse
gas emissions and energy use. The Directors
have assessed that there are no current reporting
requirements for the year ended 30 June 2019.
However, reporting requirements may change in the
future.

b) Remuneration governance and the use of
remuneration consultants
The Company does not have a Remuneration
Committee. Remuneration matters are handled
by the full Board of the Company. In this respect
the Board is responsible for:
the over-arching executive remuneration
framework;
the operation of the incentive plans
which apply to executive directors and
senior executives (the executive team),
including key performance indicators and
performance hurdles;
remuneration levels of executives; and
non-executive director fees.
The objective of the Board is to ensure that
remuneration policies and structures are fair
and competitive and aligned with the long-term
interests of the Company.
In addition, all matters of remuneration are
handled in accordance with the Corporations
Act 2001 requirements, especially with regard
to related party transactions. That is, none of
the Directors participate in any deliberations
regarding their own remuneration or related
issues.
Independent external advice is sought from
remuneration consultants when required,
however no advice was sought during the
period ended 30 June 2019.
c)
Executive remuneration policy and framework
In determining executive remuneration, the
Board aims to ensure that remuneration
practices are:
competitive and reasonable, enabling the
Company to attract and retain key talent;
aligned to the Company’s strategic and
business objectives and the creation of
shareholder value;
transparent and easily understood; and
All executives receive consulting fees or
a salary, part of which may be taken as
superannuation, and from time to time, options.
The Board reviews executive packages annually
by reference to the executive’s performance and
comparable information from industry sectors
and other listed companies in similar industries.
All remuneration paid to specified executives is
valued at the cost to the Group and expensed.
Options are valued using a Black-Scholes option
pricing model.
d) Relationship between remuneration and the
Group’s performance
Emoluments of Directors are set by reference
to payments made by other companies of
similar size and industry, and by reference to
the skills and experience of Directors. Fees paid
to Non-Executive Directors are not linked to
the performance of the Group. This policy may
change once the exploration phase is complete
and the Group is generating revenue. At present
the existing remuneration policy is not impacted
by the Group’s performance including earnings
and changes in shareholder wealth (e.g.
changes in share price).
The Board has not set short term performance
indicators, such as movements in the
Company’s share price, for the determination
of Non-Executive Director emoluments as the
Board believes this may encourage performance
which is not in the long-term interests of the
Company and its shareholders. The Board has
structured its remuneration arrangements in
such a way it believes is in the best interests of
building shareholder wealth. The Board believes
participation in the Company’s Employee
Share Option Plan motivates and aligns key
management and executives with the long-term
interests of shareholders.
e) Non-executive director remuneration policy
On appointment to the Board, all Non-Executive
Directors enter into a service agreement
with the Company in the form of a letter of
appointment. The letter summarises the Board
policies and terms, including remuneration
relevant to the office of Director.
The Board policy is to remunerate Non-
Executive Directors at commercial market
rates for comparable companies for their time,
commitment and responsibilities. Non-Executive
Directors receive a Board fee but do not receive
fees for chairing or participating on Board

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
committees. Board members are allocated superannuation guarantee contributions as required by law, and
do not receive any other retirement benefits. From time to time, some individuals may choose to sacrifice
their salary or consulting fees to increase payments towards superannuation.
The maximum annual aggregate Non-Executive Directors’ fee pool limit is $250,000 as disclosed in the
Company’s Replacement Prospectus dated 8 March 2011.
Fees for Non-Executive Directors are not linked to the performance of the Group. Non-Executive Directors’
remuneration may also include an incentive portion consisting of options, subject to approval by
shareholders.
f) Voting and comments made at the Company’s 2018 Annual General Meeting
Musgrave Minerals Limited received more than 98% of “yes” votes on its remuneration report for the
2018 financial year. The Company did not receive any specific feedback at the Annual General Meeting or
throughout the year on its remuneration practices.

The Group elected to present in other comprehensive income changes in the fair value of all its listed
equities previously classified as available-for-sale. As a result, listed equities with a fair value of $610,000
were reclassified from available-for-sale recognised under non-current available-for-sale financial assets to
financial assets at FVOCI on 1 July 2018.
Impairment of trade and other receivables
Prior to the adoption of AASB 9, in accordance with AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Measurement and
Recognition, the Group applied an incurred credit loss model. Upon adoption of AASB 9, the Group has
elected to apply the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which uses the lifetime
expected loss allowance for all trade and other receivables.
Due to the nature of the Group’s trade and other receivables, there was no impact of the expected loss
allowance under AASB 9 against the loss incurred under AASB 139 to the Group.
Impact of adoption of AASB 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“AASB 15”)
AASB 15 replaces AASB 118 Revenue. AASB 15 provides a single, principles based five step model to be
applied to all contracts with customers.
The adoption of AASB 15 resulted in minimal changes in accounting policies. The new accounting policies
are set out in Note 3. There was no impact on the financial performance or position of the Group on the
date of initial application, 1 July 2018, or at reporting date, 30 June 2019.
New accounting standards and interpretations
The following new and amended accounting standards and interpretations relevant to the operations of the
Group have been published but are not mandatory for the current financial year. The Group has decided
against early adoption of these standards and has not yet determined the potential impact on the financial
statements from the adoption of these standards and interpretations.

STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE CONTINUED
The key new standards which may impact the Group in future years are detailed below:
New or revised requirement
AASB 16: Leases
Application date
of standard
Application date
for Group
1 Jan 2019
1 Jul 2019
This Standard sets out the principles for the recognition,
measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases. The objective
is to ensure that lessees and lessors provide relevant information
in a manner that faithfully represents those transactions. This
information gives a basis for users of financial statements to
assess the effect that leases have on the financial position, financial
performance and cash flows of an entity.
The entity is yet to undertake a detailed assessment of the
impact of AASB 16. However, based on the entity’s preliminary
assessment, the Standard is expected to have an impact on the
transactions and balances recognised in the financial statements
when it is first adopted for the year ending 30 June 2020.
a) Basis of measurement
Historical cost convention
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention,
except where stated.
Critical accounting estimates
The preparation of 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 where
appropriate.
b) Going concern
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which
contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and the settlement
of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
c)
Principles of consolidation
Subsidiaries
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of the Company’s
subsidiary at 30 June 2019 and the results of its subsidiary for the year then ended. The Company and
its subsidiary together are referred to in this financial report as the Group or the consolidated entity.
Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured 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
investment with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the
activities of the entity.
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the Group.
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.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019
2
STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE CONTINUED
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies
are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an
impairment of the transferred asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where
necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the
consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income, consolidated statement of
financial position and the consolidated statement of changes in equity respectively.
d) Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The application of accounting policies requires the use of judgments, estimates and assumptions
about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The
estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are
considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions are
recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if it affects only that period, or in the period
of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
e)
Functional and presentation currency
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Group’s
functional and presentational currency.
f)
Leases
Leases of property, plant and equipment where the Group, as lessee, has substantially all the risks
and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the lease’s
inception at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease
payments. The corresponding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in other short-
term and long-term payables.
Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged
to the profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the
remaining balance of the liability for each period. The property, plant and equipment acquired under
finance leases is depreciated over the asset’s useful life or over the shorter of the asset’s useful life
and the lease term if there is no reasonable certainty that the Group will obtain ownership at the end
of the lease term.
Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the
Group as lessee are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of
any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the
period of the lease.
g) Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST
incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost
of 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 taxation authority is included with other
receivables or 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 taxation authority, are presented
as operating cash flows.

SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Group operates in one geographical segment, being Australia and in one operating category, being
mineral exploration. Therefore, information reported to the chief operating decision maker (the Board
of Musgrave Minerals Limited) for the purposes of resource allocation and performance assessment is
focused on mineral exploration within Australia. The Board has considered the requirements of AASB 8:
Operating Segments and the internal reports that are reviewed by the chief operation decision maker in
allocating resources and have concluded at this time that there are no separately identifiable segments.

The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income
based on the applicable income tax rate, adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to
temporary differences and to unused tax losses.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at
the end of the reporting period. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect
to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where
appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

The Company and its 100% owned controlled entity have formed a tax consolidated group. The head entity
of the tax consolidated group is Musgrave Minerals Limited. The tax consolidated group has potential
revenue tax losses of $30,775,748 (2018: $24,423,633).
The deductible temporary differences and tax losses do not expire under current tax legislation. Deferred
tax assets have not been recognised in respect of these items because it is not probable that future taxable
profit will be available against which the Group can utilise benefits.
The utilisation of tax losses is dependent on the Group satisfying the continuity of ownership test or the
same business test at the time the tax losses are applied against taxable income.

Trade and other receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days. They are presented as current
assets unless collection is not expected for more than 12 months after the reporting date.
Trade and other receivables are recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less
any allowance for expected credit losses.
The Group assesses at each balance date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or
group of financial assets is impaired. For trade and other receivables, the Group applies the simplified
approach permitted by AASB 9 to determine any allowances for expected credit losses, which requires
expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. The expected credit
losses on these financial assets are estimated using a provision matrix based on the Group’s historical
credit loss experience. The amounts held in trade and other receivables do not contain impaired assets and
are not past due. Based on the credit history of these trade and other receivables, it is expected that the
amounts will be received when due.
The Group’s financial risk management objectives and policies are set out in Note 22.
Due to the short-term nature of these receivables their carrying value is assumed to approximate their fair
value.

Financial assets are recognised and derecognised on settlement date where the purchase or sale of an
investment is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the investment within the time-frame
established by the market concerned. They are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs,
except for those financial assets classified as fair value through profit or loss, which are initially measured
at fair value. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in
profit or loss.
The Group classifies its financial assets as either financial assets at fair value though profit or loss
(“FVPL”), fair value though other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”) or at amortised cost. The classification
depends on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the
cash flows.
For investments in equity instruments, the classification depends on whether the Group has made an
irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at FVPL or FVOCI.
Financial assets at FVPL
For assets measured at FVPL, gains and losses will be recorded in profit or loss. The Group’s derivative
financial instruments are recognised at FVPL. Assets in this category are subsequently measured at fair
value. The fair values of financial assets in this category are determined by reference to active market
transactions or using a valuation technique where no active market exists. Refer to Note 22 for additional
details.
Financial assets at OCI
For assets measured at FVOCI, gains and losses will be recorded in other comprehensive income. There is
no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition
of the investment. Dividends from such investments continue to be recognised in profit or loss as other
income when the Group’s right to receive payments is established. Impairment losses (and reversal of
impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVOCI are not reported separately from other
changes in fair value. The Group has elected to measure its listed equities at FVOCI.
Assets in this category are subsequently measured at fair value. The fair values of quoted investments are
based on current bid prices in an active market. Refer to Note 22 for additional details.

10 EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION (CONTINUED)
i)
ii)
In August 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of Silver Lake Resources Limited’s remaining
interest in the Cue Project JV by exercising its pre-emptive right. The consideration for the JV interest
was $1.5 million in cash.
In March 2019 the Company entered into an Option Agreement (“Agreement”) to acquire the non-
alluvial gold rights to the Mainland Project for an initial payment of $125,000.
iii) The impairment expense for the year relates primarily to the write down of capitalised exploration
expenditure for the Company’s Corunna Project.
Exploration and evaluation expenditure, including the costs of acquiring licences and permits, are
capitalised as exploration and evaluation assets on an area of interest basis. Costs incurred before the
Company has obtained the legal rights to explore an area are recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss
and Other Comprehensive Income.
Exploration and evaluation assets are only recognised if the rights to the area of interest are current and
either:
a)
b)
the expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation or
from sale of the area of interest; or
activities in the area of interest have not at the reporting date reached a stage which permits a
reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and active
and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing.
Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment if sufficient data exists to determine
technical feasibility and commercial viability, and facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying
amount exceeds the recoverable amount. For the purposes of impairment testing, exploration and
evaluation assets are allocated to cash-generating units to which the exploration activity relates. The cash
generating unit shall not be larger than the area of interest.
Once the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the extraction of minerals in an area of interest
are demonstrable, exploration and evaluation assets attributable to that area of interest are first tested for
impairment and then reclassified to mineral property and development assets within property, plant and
equipment.
When an area of interest is abandoned or the Directors decide that it is not commercial, any accumulated
costs in respect of that area are written off in the financial period the decision is made.
Significant estimate and judgement
There is some subjectivity involved in the carry forward of capitalised exploration and evaluation
expenditure or, where appropriate, the write off to the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other
Comprehensive Income, however management give due consideration to areas of interest on a regular
basis and are confident that decisions to either write off or carry forward such expenditure fairly reflect the
prevailing situation.

annual leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits. All other short-term employee benefit
obligations are presented as payables.
The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the Statement of Financial Position of the Group.
Other long-term obligations
The liability for long service leave and annual leave which is not expected to be settled within 12 months
after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service is recognised as a non-current

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. Ordinary shares
have the right to receive dividends as declared, and in the event of winding up the Company, to

Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to owners of the Group, 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 year and excluding treasury shares.

19 CONTINGENT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Contingent liabilities
The Group had contingent liabilities in respect of:
Future royalty payments
Musgrave holds a 100% interest in the key tenure at Cue including the Break of Day and Lena deposits and
other prospects. Some of the Cue tenements are subject to third party royalty payments on future gold
production including the mining licence hosting the Break of Day and Lena gold deposits.
Future consideration and royalty payments
In March 2019, the Company entered into an Option Agreement (“Agreement”) to acquire the non-alluvial
gold rights to the Mainland Project which is located within the boundaries of the Company’s Cue Gold
Project. Musgrave paid $125,000 to execute the option to acquire 100% interest in the tenements (excluding
the vendors’ interest in alluvial gold). A further $100,000 is due within 18 months and an additional
$300,000 is to be paid as milestone payments in Musgrave shares or cash (at the Company’s discretion)
before the fourth anniversary of the Agreement. The vendor will be entitled to a 1% gross royalty on any
gold produced by the Company from the tenements (excluding any alluvial gold).
Contingent assets
The Group had contingent assets in respect of:
Future royalty payments
In January 2014, the Group entered into a Mining Farm-in and Joint Venture Agreement (“Agreement”)
with Menninnie Metals Pty Ltd. In August 2015, the parties agreed to terminate the Agreement
(“Termination Agreement”). As part of the Termination Agreement the Group retains a 1% Net Smelter
Return Royalty on all ores, concentrates or other primary, intermediate or final product of any minerals
produced from two of the tenements.
Deferred consideration
In May 2019, Cyprium Australia Pty Ltd (“Cyprium”) exercised an option to earn an 80% interest in the non-
gold rights over the northern tenements (“Tenements”) of the Company’s Cue Project. Cyprium is required
to spend $2 million on exploration within two years to acquire the 80% interest upon which the Company
will retain 20% and be free carried to a definitive feasibility study. Should Cyprium delineate 80,000 tonnes
of contained copper over the Tenements, $200,000 in cash or the equivalent value of Cyprium shares
(at Cyprium’s election) will be due to the Company. Upon a Decision to Mine, $300,000 in cash or the
equivalent value of Cyprium shares (at Cyprium’s election) will be due to the Company.
There are no other material contingent assets or liabilities as at 30 June 2019.

20 EVENTS OCCURRING AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD
On 17 September 2019 Musgrave announced that it had entered into an Earn-In and Joint Venture
Exploration Agreement with Evolution Mining Limited over a select area of Lake Austin and surrounds
(JV Area) of the Cue Project in the Murchison District of Western Australia. The JV Area excludes all the
known resources including Lena and Break of Day and the Mainland option area. Evolution can earn a 75%
interest in the JV Area by sole funding A$18 million on exploration over a five year term with a minimum
commitment of A$4 million in the first two years. Musgrave will manage the JV during the initial period.
As part of the Agreement, Evolution has agreed to subscribe for 18,587,361 ordinary shares in Musgrave
through a share placement (“Placement”) at a price of $0.0807 per share. The placement was set at the 30-
day VWAP for Musgrave shares and represents a holding of 4.59% (undiluted) in the Company.
There have been no other events subsequent to reporting date which are sufficiently material to warrant
disclosure.
21 COMMITMENTS
In order to maintain an interest in the exploration tenements in which the Group is involved, the Group is
committed to meeting the conditions under which the tenements were granted. The timing and amount
of exploration expenditure commitments and obligations of the Group are subject to the minimum
expenditure commitments required as per the Mining Act 1978 (Western Australia) and the Mining Act
1971 (South Australia), and may vary significantly from the forecast based upon the results of the work
performed which will determine the prospectivity of the relevant area of interest. Currently, the minimum
expenditure commitments for the granted tenements is $992,300 (2018: $901,940) per annum. Of this
amount $488,000 will be met by the Group’s joint venture partners as part of their earn-in obligations.
Commitments in relation to the lease of office premises are payable as follows:

Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument or cash flows associated with the
instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. Interest rate risk arises from fluctuations
in interest bearing financial assets and liabilities that the Group uses.
Interest bearing assets comprise cash and cash equivalents which are considered to be short-term liquid
assets. It is the Group’s policy to settle trade payables within the credit terms allowed and therefore not
incur interest on overdue balances.

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument
fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers
and investment securities. The Group trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties. It is the
Group policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification
procedures. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the
Group’s exposure to bad debts is not significant. The maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying value
of the receivable, net of any provision for expected credit loss.

22 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTINUED)
With respect to credit risk arising from the other financial assets of the Group, which comprise cash
and cash equivalents, the Group’s exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counter party, with a
maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. This risk is minimised by reviewing
term deposit accounts from time to time with approved banks of a sufficient credit rating which is -AA and
above.
Exposure to credit risk
The carrying amount of the Group’s financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The Group’s
maximum exposure to credit risk is tabled below.

The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk is minimal at this stage of its operations.
Commodity price risk
The Group’s exposure to commodity price risk is minimal at this stage of its operations.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The
Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient
liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring
unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.
The Group’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility. The following

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents and non-interest bearing financial assets and financial liabilities
of the Group is equal to their carrying value.
Fair value measurement of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in the Consolidated Statement of Financial
Position are grouped into three levels of a fair value hierarchy. The three levels are defined based on the
observability of significant inputs to the measurement, as follows:
(cid:129)
(cid:129)
(cid:129)
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3: unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The following table shows the levels within the hierarchy of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair
value on a recurring basis at 30 June 2019 and 30 June 2018:

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going
concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an
optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. The management of the Group’s capital is performed
by the Board.
The capital structure of the Group consists of net debt (trade and other payables and provisions detailed in
Notes 12 and 13 offset by cash and bank balances) and equity of the Group (comprising contributed equity
and reserves, offset by accumulated losses detailed in Notes 14, 15 and 16).
The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. None of the Group’s entities are
subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

The fair value of share options at grant date is determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that
takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the share price at grant date, the expected
price volatility of the underlying share and the risk-free rate for the term of the option. The fair value of
share options issued during the year was $533,673 of which $328,803 relate to key management personnel
(2018: $239,558 and $141,570 respectively).

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the members of Musgrave Minerals Limited
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Musgrave Minerals Limited (the Company) and its subsidiary
(the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2019, the
consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement
of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes
to the financial report, including 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:
(i)
Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2019 and of its
financial performance for the year ended on that date; and
(ii)
Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under
those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial
Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Corporations
Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the
financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance
with the Code.
We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been
given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the
time of this auditor’s report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our opinion.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in
our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of
our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide
a separate opinion on these matters.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
Recoverability of exploration and evaluation expenditure
Key audit matter
How the matter was addressed in our audit
As disclosed in Note 10 to the Financial
Report, the carrying value of capitalised
exploration and evaluation expenditure
represents a significant asset of the Group.
Refer to Note 10 of the Financial Report for a
description of the accounting policy and
significant judgements applied to capitalised
exploration and evaluation expenditure.
In accordance with AASB 6 Exploration for
and Evaluation of Mineral Resources (AASB 6),
the recoverability of exploration and
evaluation expenditure requires significant
judgment by management in determining
whether there are any facts or circumstances
that exist to suggest that the carrying amount
of this asset may exceed its recoverable
amount. As a result, this is considered a key
audit matter.
Our procedures included, but were not limited
to:
(cid:120) Obtaining a schedule of the areas of interest
held by the Group and assessing whether the
rights to tenure of those areas of interest
remained current at balance date;
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
(cid:120)
Considering the status of the ongoing
exploration programmes in the respective
areas of interest by holding discussions with
management, and reviewing the Group’s
exploration budgets, ASX announcements and
directors’ minutes;
Considering whether any such areas of
interest had reached a stage where a
reasonable assessment of economically
recoverable reserves existed;
Considering whether any facts or
circumstances existed to suggest impairment
testing was required; and
Assessing the adequacy of the related
disclosures in Note 10 to the Financial Report.

Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2019, but does not include the
financial report and the auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any
form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial
report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this
other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Other matter
The financial report of Musgrave Minerals Limited, for the year ended 30 June 2018 was audited by
another auditor who expressed an unmodified opinion on that report on 19 September 2018.
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 ability of the Group to
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the
going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that
includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an
audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material
if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic
decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the
Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website (http://www.auasb.gov.au/Home.aspx) at:
