Chairman’s Letter CHAIRMAN’S LETTER Dear Shareholder Important developments have significantly advanced the Company’s two most valuable assets – the Nagambie Gold Project and the PASS “Underwater Storage” Project. Nagambie Gold Project A ground-based Induced Polarisation (IP) geophysics survey at Wandean came up with surprising but exciting results. It had been expected that the IP would delineate a sulphide-gold target beneath the east-west-striking oxide-gold mineralisation discovered by Nagambie Resources at Wandean in 2014. No target appeared below the oxide gold but a strong target, starting 300m vertically below surface and striking east-west, was outlined 300m to the north of the oxide gold. This target is supported by a gold-arsenic-antimony soil anomaly above it and a coincident thrust fault. Drilling of WTD002 (see section on the Front Cover) is well underway, with the primary target being an IP chargeability high of 26 mV/m approximately 770m down hole. By comparison, the highest IP chargeability high under the East Pit at the Nagambie Mine was 6.5 mV/m, only one-quarter of the Wandean target figure. The north-west-striking Wandean Crustal Fault was almost certainly the mineralising pathway for the oxide-gold mineralisation at Wandean, which it intersects, and, 7 km to the south east, it lies around 1.7 km to the west of the Nagambie Mine. Another IP survey is planned to commence shortly in this area and strong IP chargeability highs where the east- west-striking Nagambie Mine Thrust Fault intersects the Wandean Crustal Fault would generate another exciting drill target. It would also strongly validate the Company’s “intersecting-faults” geological model for its 2,000 sq km of gold tenements in the Waranga Domain. PASS “Underwater Storage” Project The Environment Protection Authority of Victoria (EPA) recently gave Nagambie Resources written confirmation that the Landfill Levy is being charged on the disposal of waste acid sulfate soil and rock (WASS, including PASS) to all licensed landfills in Victoria. Further, it confirmed that this WASS is often contaminated by other pollutants, requiring it to be deposited in a landfill cell. A logical conclusion of the EPA confirmation is that landfills, while the only possible sites for contaminated WASS, are not cost competitive in regards to the management of clean, uncontaminated WASS / PASS. This is because the Landfill Levy, currently $65.90 per tonne, greatly exceeds the trucking costs to the alternative “lime treatment” and “underwater storage” sites which have EPA-approved Environment Management Plans (EMPs) and are not subject to the Landfill Levy. Nagambie Resources therefore concludes that the lime treatment sites are the only real competitors to the best practice PASS underwater storage sites, of which the Nagambie Mine has the biggest capacity at around 5.0 million tonnes. The lime treatment sites in Melbourne have two significant drawbacks however. Firstly, while lime mixing with WASS soil is proven and common practice in Australia, lime mixing with WASS rock is not proven and common practice, certainly not at rates around 1.0 million tonnes per year. Secondly, Nagambie Resources has calculated that the lime treatment sites in Melbourne would produce more than four times the total equivalent carbon emissions per tonne of PASS than an underwater storage site such as the Nagambie Mine. Total WASS rock (PASS) to be generated from North East Link will be approximately 5.4 million tonnes, all of it from 24/7 tunnelling by tunnel boring machines (TBMs). In September 2019, the Victorian Government announced the three consortiums that will be bidding for the construction of North East Link, with tenders to close in mid 2020. Funding Nagambie Resources’ gold exploration expenditure for the 2018/19 year was a record for the Company of $2,092,107. The great majority of this was validly claimable as R&D expenditure and $727,995 has now been received as an R&D cash rebate from the ATO. The 2019 Shareholder Share Purchase Plan (SPP) at 5.3 cents per share is underway and closes on 13 November. All the directors intend to take up their maximum entitlement of $30,000. As usual I would again like to thank the Company’s very supportive and patient shareholders - also my fellow directors, the CEO and his team, and our various excellent consultants for another productive year. I would particularly like to take this opportunity to thank Kevin Perrin who retired as our long-serving Finance Director at 30 June this year. Mike Trumbull Executive Chairman 28 October 2019 Nagambie Resources Limited | 2019 Annual Report | Page 1 CEO’s Operations & Exploration Review CEO’s OPERATIONS & EXPLORATION REVIEW GOLD EXPLORATION – NAGAMBIE GOLD PROJECT Gold exploration for Fosterville-style high-grade underground sulphide-gold deposits in Nagambie Resources’ Waranga Domain tenements was greatly advanced during the year. The main driver was the delineation of a large, strong sulphide- gold target 300m north of the surface oxide-gold mineralisation at Wandean. WTD002 Diamond Hole Wandean hole WTD002 (refer Figure 1) is well underway. It is designed to intersect the centre of an Induced Polarisation (IP) chargeability anomaly four times stronger than the one intersected under the Nagambie Mine East Pit in 2018 (26 mV/m versus 6.5 mV/m). Figure 1 Wandean Section (looking west) – Sulphide-Gold Target of 26 mV/m 300m north of Surface Oxide Gold The WTD002 sulphide-gold target is supported by the strong IP anomaly, lies beneath a gold-in-soil anomaly, is coincident with a projected thrust fault, and significant hydrothermal alteration of the sediments was established in WTD001. Another ground IP survey is to be carried out, as soon as cropping allows, over the section of the Wandean Crustal Fault to the west of the Nagambie Mine, 7km south east of Wandean (refer Figure 3). A strong IP sulphide-gold response in this location would highlight the prospectivity of Nagambie Resources’ 2,000 sq km of tenements in the Waranga Domain. Waranga Domain Geological Model (WaGM) The strong IP anomaly being drilled at Wandean occurs only 600m east of the Wandean Crustal Fault (refer Figure 2). This supports Nagambie Resources’ geological model for the Waranga Domain (WaGM) which currently includes:  The host rocks are extensive marine siltstone and sandstone sediments (turbidites) with a total current-day thickness of at least 6 km.  Significant erosion of the turbidites since formation has occurred to expose the Strathbogie granites to the south. The turbidites rarely outcrop in the region, the East Pit at the Nagambie Mine being an exception, being mostly covered by recent Murray Basin unconsolidated clays and sands;  Regional northeast-southwest compression followed by later north-south compression (refer Figure 4) caused progressive folding of these originally-horizontal sedimentary rocks, resulting in numerous east-west-striking and near-vertical north-dipping thrust faults. Adjacent to these thrust faults, folding and fracturing of the rocks was pronounced; Nagambie Resources Limited | 2019 Annual Report | Page 2 CEO’s Operations & Exploration Review  Crustal hydrothermal fluids rose up deep crustal faults, predominantly north-west striking, under pressure around 370 million years ago;  Where the deep crustal faults intersected the nearer-surface east-west-striking thrust faults, the hydrothermal fluids moved both eastwards and westwards along and up the thrust faults under pressure, filling all the available fracture openings in the adjacent sedimentary rocks and occasionally flooding coarse sandstone units. When the temperature and pressure conditions at formation fell to conducive levels, precipitation of quartz, various carbonates, pyrite (iron sulphide), arsenopyrite (arsenic-iron sulphide), stibnite (antimony sulphide) and gold from the hydrothermal fluids took place.  Maximum precipitation of gold could occur immediately adjacent to the crustal faults or various distances east or west of the crustal faults, wherever the temperature and pressure conditions were optimum for precipitation;  Gold grade correlates well with both % pyrite and % arsenopyrite at the Nagambie Mine and Wandean. The gold grade correlation with % stibnite is generally very poor to date;  Sulphide-gold mineralisation will occur in folded and fractured siltstone-rich zones, but more intense mineralisation will occur in the more brittle and more fractured sandstone-rich zones; and  Discrete IP chargeability highs in the Waranga Domain will most likely represent anomalous concentrations of disseminated hydrothermal pyrite and arsenopyrite within folded and fractured sandstone-rich zones adjacent to the east-west-striking thrust faults. Figure 2 WTD002 Plan – Wandean Sulphide-Gold Target, Thrust Faults and Wandean Crustal Fault Key Waranga Domain Structures The gravity structures shown in Figure 4 represent deep crustal faults, predominately north-west striking. The magnetic structures represent the principal nearer-surface thrust faults, predominantly east-west striking. Each principal thrust fault will usually have one or more secondary, adjacent thrust faults. The principal thrust faults shown in the Wandean – Nagambie Mine area were determined from aeromagnetic surveys. Several of these have been confirmed by mapping in road cuttings, as have the ones outside of that area. Nagambie Resources plans to ultimately conduct aeromagnetic surveys over all its Waranga Domain tenements and expects that the density of thrust faults in the Wandean – Nagambie Mine area will be replicated elsewhere in its 2,000 sq km of tenements. The number of crustal fault – thrust fault intersections in the 2,000 sq km of tenements is expected to be a very large number. Mineralised intersections will be only a proportion of the total intersections, but still a large number. Nagambie Resources Limited | 2019 Annual Report | Page 3 Figure 3 Nagambie Area – Wandean Crustal Fault, Wandean & Nagambie Mine West Targets CEO’s Operations & Exploration Review Figure 4 Waranga Domain – Key Structures, Surface Gold at Wandean, Nagambie Mine & Tubbs Rd Nagambie Resources Limited | 2019 Annual Report | Page 4 CEO’s Operations & Exploration Review However, the chances of the mineralised intersections outcropping at the current-day surface is extremely low given that the great majority of the tenements are covered by Murray Basin sediments varying in thickness from a few metres to over 100 metres. Additionally, the mineralised intersections will predominately only occur in brittle sandstone-rich rocks which alternate irregularly with more-ductile, less-fractured siltstone-rich rocks. For the above reasons, there are, unsurprisingly, only three currently known surface oxide-gold occurrences in Nagambie Resources’ tenements (shown in yellow in Figure 4). All three fit the Company’s crustal fault – thrust fault intersection model. The Nagambie Mine East Pit was mined between 1989 and 1992. Wandean was a virgin gold discovery by Nagambie Resources in 2014. Tubbs Road would have been worked in the late 1800s but has never been drilled or tested geophysically. WASS / PASS PROJECT Waste acid sulfate soil and rock (WASS) can be either potential acid sulfate soil (PASS) or actual acid sulphate soil and rock (AASS). PASS exists below the water table and, if it is excavated and then stored above ground, it naturally oxidises into AASS with attendant acid drainage environmental issues. Best practice management of PASS is to store it under water, preventing oxidation and acid formation. Nagambie Resources has an Environment Protection Authority of Victoria (EPA)-approved Environment Management Plan (EMP) to store PASS in the legacy water-filled pits at the Nagambie Mine as part of the proposed rehabilitation of those pits. PASS capacity of the pits is around 5.0 million tonnes. The water in the Nagambie Mine open pits is naturally saline and alkaline, making it ideal tor PASS management. Total WASS in the Metro Rail, West Gate Tunnel and North East Link projects that will require management is approximately 8.2 million tonnes. EPA Confirms Landfill Levy Applies to all WASS / PASS Disposed to Melbourne Landfills Nagambie Resources had become concerned that the Landfill Levy was not being consistently applied to WASS taken to Melbourne landfills and a detailed enquiry was sent to the EPA seeking clarification. A written response was received from the EPA in October 2019 and the Company is greatly encouraged as it supports Nagambie Resources’ reasoning in establishing the infrastructure to store PASS underwater in the legacy pits at the Nagambie Mine. The EPA confirmed that the Landfill Levy is being charged on the disposal of all WASS to all licensed landfills in Victoria. Further, it noted that this WASS is often contaminated by other pollutants, requiring it to be deposited in a landfill cell. A logical conclusion is that landfills, while the only possible sites for contaminated WASS, are not cost competitive in regards to the management of clean, uncontaminated WASS. This is because the Landfill Levy, currently $65.90 per tonne, greatly exceeds the trucking costs to the alternative “lime treatment” and “underwater storage” sites which have EPA-approved EMPs and are not subject to the Landfill Levy. Nagambie Resources therefore concludes that the only real competitors to the best practice PASS underwater storage sites such as the Nagambie Mine are the lime treatment sites. WASS Categories and Management Options The approximate WASS soil and rock figures for the major committed infrastructure projects in Melbourne are shown in Table 1 and total 8.3 million tonnes. With future projects under consideration such as the very large Suburban Rail Loop, Metro Rail 2 and a variation on the original East-West Link, total WASS requiring management over the next 10 to 15 years may exceed 20.0 million tonnes. Table 1 WASS Summary for Major Melbourne Infrastructure Projects Committed to Date In and around Melbourne, WASS rock typically doesn’t occur less than 25m below the surface and is unlikely to have suffered from anthropological (human) contamination. All WASS within around 25m of surface will therefore most likely be WASS soil and could be contaminated or uncontaminated. The West Gate Tunnel and the two large road/rail crossing projects will only generate WASS soil (refer Table 1). WASS soil generated from Metro Rail and North East Link will represent approximately 5% and 18% respectively of total WASS for those projects. All contaminated WASS soil will require disposal to Melbourne landfills (refer Figure 1). Nagambie Resources Limited | 2019 Annual Report | Page 5 Nagambie Resources expects that all the clean, uncontaminated WASS soil will continue to go to lime-treatment sites in Melbourne (refer Figure 1) and be managed in accordance with their EPA-approved EMPs. Liming of WASS soil is proven and common practice in Australia. Figure 1 Principal Management Site Type for Each WASS Category CEO’s Operations & Exploration Review Total WASS rock (PASS) to be generated from Metro Rail will be approximately 1.4 million tonnes, the majority of it from tunnelling to be carried out by four Tunnel Boring Machines (TBMs). The balance will be generated from additional excavation of the underground stations using roadheaders. “Early Works” WASS rock generated intermittently, and in relatively small quantities, by roadheaders has probably been taken to lime-treatment sites in Melbourne if it was uncontaminated. Nagambie Resources expects that this may continue to be the case for the roadheader-generated WASS rock from Metro Rail (refer Figure 1) despite there being operational issues with liming rock. Liming of rock piles is not proven and common practice in Australia. A significant operational issue is that the blended lime can be washed through the rock pile in heavy rainfall events. Total WASS rock to be generated from North East Link will be approximately 5.4 million tonnes, all of it from tunnelling by TBMs. In September 2019, the Victorian Government announced the three consortiums that will be bidding for the construction of North East Link, with tenders to close in mid 2020. Total TBM-generated WASS rock (PASS) from the Metro Rail and North East Link tunnels will therefore be over 6.0 million tonnes or, on average, around 1.0 million tonnes per year. It is envisaged that all the TBMs on these two projects will be operating continuously 24/7 as the tunnelling is the major critical path activity. At any particular time, all the TBMs could be tunnelling through PASS rock which would create significant operational issues in terms of PASS management. When all the TBMs are simultaneously excavating PASS 24/7, the PASS rock will need to be trucked away continuously and managed 24/7 in accordance with the EMP procedures that apply at the receiving sites. Nagambie Resources considers that only underwater storage sites can accommodate such a large-scale 24/7 requirement by the project managers. Lime treatment of PASS rock on a continuous 24/7 basis would have to cope with issues such as heavy rainfall, rainfall runoff, consistent lime blending / retention in rock piles, and effective pH testing of all the product heaps as they progress through treatment. Another significant issue is the carbon emissions produced by the lime treatment sites in Melbourne. Nagambie Resources has calculated that they produce more than four times the total equivalent carbon emissions than an underwater storage site such as the Nagambie Mine. The equivalent carbon emissions from the production of lime needed to treat the PASS, and the lime blending process itself, are more than five times greater than the additional equivalent emissions resulting from the longer trucking distance to Nagambie. QUARRY PRODUCTS Nagambie Resources is currently negotiating a commercial arrangement with a large producer and supplier of concrete aggregates and gravel products in Victoria.

Nagambie Resources Limited | 2019 Annual Report | Page 9 Operating and Financial Review Principal Activities The principal activities of the group during the financial period were the exploration for, and development of, gold, associated minerals, and construction materials in Australia, and the investigation and development of waste handling assets. Directors’ Report Review of Operations Gold exploration for Fosterville-style, high-grade underground sulphide-gold deposits in the Waranga Domain was strongly advanced during the 2019 financial year. Nagambie Resources’ concept that hydrothermal fluids rising up the Wandean Crustal Fault under pressure resulted in the gold deposits at both the Nagambie Mine and Wandean, 9 km apart, is approaching final validation in the 2020 financial year. “Prevent Oxidation” underwater WASS/PASS management, as approved for the Nagambie Mine legacy pits, is best practice for Melbourne’s major tunnel infrastructure projects under Victorian environmental legislation and associated regulations. The Environment Effects Statement for the North East Link Project was released during the year and highlighted that around 6.6 million tonnes of WASS/PASS generated during tunnelling will require management and that disposal to Melbourne’s remaining precious landfill space would be worst practice. Gold Exploration Licences The total area of ELs granted and applied for in the Waranga Domain at 30 June 2019 was 2,004 sq km. Induced Polarisation (IP) Geophysical Surveys A Ground IP survey was carried out over the Wandean Prospect area during the year and delineated a very encouraging east-west-striking sulphide-gold target 300m to the north of the oxide-gold mineralisation discovered in 2014 at Wandean. Six north-south lines, 100m apart, were surveyed and significant adjoining IP chargeability anomalies were outlined on each section. The highest reading recorded was 26 mV/m, four times stronger than the best anomaly beneath the Nagambie Mine East Pit. WTD002, a diamond drill hole designed to intersect the 26 mV/m maximum chargeability, commenced in September 2019. A trial Radial-Down-The-Hole (Radial-DTH) IP survey was also carried out on diamond hole NND002, a north-south hole drilled west of the West Pit at The Nagambie Mine. 12 radial surface survey lines, up to 1,000m in length, were established with the down-hole probe set at 400m depth in temporary PVC casing in NND002. The results achieved were very encouraging, delineating more specific chargeability anomalies than the broad Ground IP survey previously carried out over the area. Lithogeochemical Analysis for Hydrothermal Alteration in Drill Holes Diamond-core geochemical and hyperspectral data was generated, at least every 50m down hole, for seven of the nine deep diamond holes drilled to date. The results obtained were compared to known hydrothermal alteration of siltstone and sandstone host rocks at the Fosterville gold mine and other mines using published data. The working hypothesis is that the hydrothermal alteration in the Waranga Domain is similar to that observed at Fosterville and that it can be used to vector towards and/or prioritise structures. WTD001, the first deep diamond hole drilled at Wandean, and all the Nagambie Mine and Nagambie Mine West holes exhibited significant Fosterville-style hydrothermal alteration of the sediments. The results have proved to be very useful and lithogeochemical analysis of selected diamond holes will be carried out in the future. WASS/PASS Management Project WASS is waste acid sulfate soil and rock. PASS is potential acid sulfate soil and rock. Total WASS/PASS in the Metro Rail, West Gate and North East Link projects that will require management is around 8.2 million tonnes. With future projects under consideration such as the very large Suburban Rail Loop, Metro Rail 2 and a variation on the original East-West Link, total WASS requiring management over the next 10 to 15 years may exceed 20.0 million tonnes. Nagambie Resources has an EPA-approved Environment Management Plan (EMP) to store PASS in the legacy water- filled pits at the Nagambie Mine as part of the rehabilitation of those pits. PASS management capacity of the pits is around 5.0 million tonnes. EPA WASS policy discourages disposal to landfill and encourages its management at facilities with an approved EMP, with a preference for those facilities that implement a management approach higher up the management hierarchy. In practical terms, underwater storage (prevent oxidation) ranks ahead of “liming” (reduce or neutralise acidity) while landfilling is worst practice in terms of the environment and sustainability. Quarry Products Nagambie Resources has commenced discussions with a large well-established company regarding commercial production of crushed rock from the overburden dumps at the Nagambie Mine and concrete aggregates from the tailings on the old heap leach pad. Nagambie Resources Limited | 2019 Annual Report | Page 10 Directors’ Report Likely Developments During the 2020 financial year, Nagambie Resources is planning to: 1. Drill WTD002 and follow up holes as required into the underground sulphide-gold target at Wandean. Possibly carry out lithogeochemical sampling of selected holes to assist in vectoring towards and/or prioritising structures; 2. Carry out a Ground IP geophysical survey over the Wandean Crustal Fault to the west of the Nagambie Mine and commence diamond drilling in the area if justified. Possibly carry out a Radial-DTH IP survey on the first hole drilled and lithogeochemical sampling of selected holes. Possibly carry out Ground IP surveys where the Wandean Crustal Fault intersects the Grimwade and Racecourse Thrust Faults between Wandean and the Nagambie Mine; 3. Secure a PASS Management contract for some of the estimated 8.2 million tonnes to be excavated from the tunnels for West Gate, Metro Rail and North East Link; and 4. Secure a commercial arrangement with a large well-established company for the production of crushed rock and concrete aggregates at the Nagambie Mine. Financial Matters The consolidated loss for the group for the year amounted to $1,485,048 after tax. This compared to a loss after tax for the year ended 30 June 2018 of $1,187,261. The increase of $297,787 in the loss for the year relates to a decrease in revenue of $433,259 an increase in expenditures of $143,914 and receipt of an R&D tax incentive of $279,386. The lower revenue all related to sales of various crushed rock products. The largest expenditure increases related to share based payments expense of $249,018 (a non-cash item) and $94,669 in finance costs. There was a reduction in the cost of sales and rehabilitation of $245,928. A total of $2,025,500 before costs was raised in share capital by the company during the 2019 financial year. This included $1,042,500 from issue of 16,814,473 shares at 6.2 cents from a share purchase plan, $600,000 from issue of 9,677,417 shares at 6.2 cents in a placement and $383,000 from the exercise of 3,830,000 incentive options at 10.0 cents. There was also $700,000 raised from the issue of 7,000,000 convertible notes at 10 cents. Changes in state of affairs There was no significant change in the state of affairs of the Group during the financial year other than already disclosed. Subsequent events There has not arisen in the interval between the end of the financial year and the date of this report any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature, likely in the opinion of the directors of the Company, to affect significantly the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or state of affairs of the Group, in future financial years.

This process requires consideration of the levels and form of remuneration appropriate to securing, motivating and retaining executives with the skills to manage the company’s operations. The board of directors also recommends levels and form of remuneration for non-executive directors with reference to performance and when required, sought independent expert advice. The total sum of remuneration payable to non-executive directors shall not exceed the sum fixed by members of the company in general meeting. In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 10.17, the current maximum aggregate compensation payable out of the funds of the company to non-executive directors for their services as directors is $250,000 per annum. For the year ending 30 June 2019, the board resolved that the executive chairman’s remuneration be set at $150,000 (2018: $150,000) per annum excluding superannuation and share based payments. For non-executive directors, remuneration was set at $42,000 (2018: $42,000) per annum excluding superannuation and share based payments. Where a director performs special duties or otherwise performs consulting services outside of the scope of the ordinary duties of a director, then additional amounts will be payable. There is no direct relationship between the company’s remuneration policy and the company’s performance. That is, no portion of the remuneration of directors, secretary or senior managers is ‘at risk’. However, in determining the remuneration to be paid in each subsequent financial year, the board will have regard to the company’s performance. Therefore, the relationship between the remuneration policy and the company’s performance is indirect. Options are issued to employees under the company’s Employee Option Plan at the discretion of the board. Options issued to directors require the approval of shareholders at a general meeting. The purpose of the issue of options is to remunerate employees and directors as an incentive for future services. The directors consider it important that the company is able to attract and retain people of the highest calibre and believe that the most appropriate means of achieving this is to provide an opportunity to participate in the company’s future growth and give them an incentive to contribute to that growth.

The Group has cancellable planned exploration expenditure under its leased tenements extending to 30 June 2020 of $1,122,657 (2019: $1,009,500). The Group has received written representations from the directors that they will not call on the payment of directors fees until cash reserves reach appropriate levels. The directors have assessed the current cash balances available to the entity, along with the operating and capital expenditure plans and expected obligations over the next 12 months. They are mindful of their obligations to ensure that there is adequate working capital available for operations and in this regard the following initiatives are being planned to improve group income in the future: • Drill WTD002 and follow up holes as required into the underground sulphide-gold target at Wandean. Possibly carry out lithogeochemical sampling of selected holes to assist in vectoring towards and/or prioritising structures; • Carry out a Ground IP geophysical surveys over the Wandean Crustal Fault to the west of the Nagambie Mine and commence diamond drilling in the area if justified. Possibly carry a Radial-DTH IP survey on the first hole drilled and lithogeochemical sampling of selected holes. Possibly carry out Ground IP surveys where the Wandean Crustal Fault intersects the Grimwade and Racecourse Thrust Faults between Wandean and the Nagambie Mine; • Secure a PASS Management contract for some of the estimated 8.2 million tonnes to be excavated from the tunnels for Westgate, Metro Rail and North East Link; and • Secure a commercial agreement with a large well-established company for the production of crushed rock and concrete aggregates at the Nagambie Mine. If necessary, the group has additional capacity to meet its financial commitments through the following: Issue of additional shares and/or convertible notes: • • Reclaiming cash backed environmental bonds for mineral tenements with the Department of Environmental Development Jobs Transport and Resources Victoria and therefore foregoing any capital commitments on those tenements surrendered: and • Scaling back its administrative and corporate costs, including a reduction in fees payable to directors. This financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or to amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary should the group be unable to continue as a going concern. Nagambie Resources Limited | 2019 Annual Report | Page 23 Notes to the Financial Statements 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) (b) Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (referred to as ‘the group’ in these financial statements). The consolidated entity controls an entity when the consolidated entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by other members of the group. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation. (c) Cash and cash equivalents Cash comprises cash on hand and demand deposits. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. (d) Employee benefits Short-term employee benefits Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and long service leave expected to be wholly settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in current liabilities in respect of employees' services up to the reporting date and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Other long-term employee benefits The liability for annual leave and long service leave not expected to be wholly settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in non-current liabilities, provided there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability. The liability is measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on government bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. (e) Exploration and evaluation assets Exploration and evaluation expenditures in relation to each separate area of interest are recognised as an exploration and evaluation asset in the year in which they are incurred where the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and (ii) at least one of the following conditions is also met: (a) the exploration and evaluation expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploration of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale; or (b) exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not at the end of the reporting period 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 initially measured at cost and include acquisition of rights to explore, studies, exploratory drilling, trenching and sampling and associated activities and an allocation of depreciation and amortisation of assets used in exploration and evaluation activities. General and administrative costs are only included in the measure of exploration and evaluation costs where they are related directly to operational activities in a particular area of interest. Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment when facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of an exploration and evaluation asset may exceed its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of the exploration and evaluation asset (or the cash-generating unit(s) to which it has been allocated, being no larger than the relevant area of interest) is estimated to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not Nagambie Resources Limited | 2019 Annual Report | Page 24 Notes to the Financial Statements 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in previous years. Where a decision is made to proceed with the development in respect of a particular area of interest, the relevant exploration and evaluation asset is tested for impairment and the balance will then be reclassified to capitalised development costs. (f) Impairment of tangible assets At the end of each reporting period, the group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Where a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified. Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. (g) Income tax Current tax Current tax is calculated by reference to the amount of income taxes payable or recoverable in respect of the taxable profit or tax loss for the period. It is calculated using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Current tax for current and prior periods is recognised as a liability (or asset) to the extent that it is unpaid (or refundable). Deferred tax Deferred tax is accounted for using the liability method. Temporary differences are differences between the tax base of an asset or liability and its carrying amount in the statement of financial position. The tax base of an asset or liability is the amount attributed to that asset or liability for tax purposes. In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable amounts will be available against which deductible temporary differences or unused tax losses and tax offsets can be utilised. However, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary differences giving rise to them arise from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities (other than as a result of a business combination) which affects neither taxable income nor accounting profit. A deferred tax liability is not recognised in relation to taxable temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, branches and associates, and interests in joint ventures except where the group is able to control the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with these investments and interests are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period(s) when the asset and liability giving rise to them are realised or settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities Nagambie Resources Limited | 2019 Annual Report | Page 25 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) Notes to the Financial Statements and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis. Current and deferred tax for the period Current and deferred tax is recognised as an expense or income in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, except when it relates to items credited or debited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised directly in equity, or where it arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, in which case it is taken into account in the determination of goodwill or excess. .(h) Research & development tax incentive The Research & development (R&D) tax incentive refund relates to eligible R&D activities undertaken by the group. The tax credit is recognised when the money is received from the Australian Taxation Office. This credit is recognised in current tax (refer note 2(h) above). (i) Leased assets Leases are classified as finance leases when the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased asset to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. Contingent rentals arising under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. (j) Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the item. Depreciation is provided on property, plant and equipment except for freehold land. Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis so as to write off the net cost amount of each asset over its expected useful life to its estimated residual value. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes recognised on a prospective basis. The range of useful lives for each class of plant equipment for the year were: Plant and equipment: Computer equipment: Motor vehicles: 4-10 years 3-5 years 3-5 years The gain or loss arising on disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant or equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit and loss. (k) Provisions Provisions are recognised when the group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. (l) Revenue Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Sale of rock revenue Revenue from the sale of rock is measured at the fair value for the consideration received or receivable. The performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time when the rock is removed from the company premises. There are no cartage expenses as the customer utilises their own assets to source and remove the rock. Nagambie Resources Limited | 2019 Annual Report | Page 26 Notes to the Financial Statements 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) Interest revenue Interest revenue is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount. Rental revenue Property rental income is recognised on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease term. The performance obligation is recognised over time. (m) Share-based payments Equity-settled share-based payments with employees and others providing similar services are measured at the fair value of the equity instrument at the grant date. Fair value is measured by use of a Binomial option pricing model. The expected life used in the model has been adjusted, based on management’s best estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions, and behavioural considerations. The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed when options are granted since in all cases there is no delay until options are vested. Equity-settled share-based payment transactions with other parties are measured at the fair value of the goods and services received, except where the fair value cannot be estimated reliably, in which case they are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted, measured at the date the entity obtains the goods or the counterparty renders the service. (n) Goods and services tax Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except: i. where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority, it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset or as part of an item of expense; or for receivables and payables which are recognised inclusive of GST. ii. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables. Cash flows are presented on a net basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financial activities which are recoverable from a payable to the taxation authority are presented as operating cash flows. (o) Trade and other payables Accounts payable and other payables represent the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period for goods and services received by the company during the reporting period which remain unpaid. The balance is recognised as a current liability with the amounts normally paid within 30 days of recognition of the liability. (p) Trade and other receivables Trade and other receivables include amounts due from customers for goods sold and services performed in the ordinary course of business. Receivables expected to be collected within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are classified as current assets. All other receivables are classified as non-current assets. (q) Borrowings Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Where there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date, the loans or borrowings are classified as non-current. The component of the convertible notes that exhibits characteristics of a liability is recognised as a liability in the statement of financial position, net of transaction costs. Convertible notes are initially classified as a financial liability until extinguished on conversion or redemption. The corresponding interest on convertible notes is expensed to profit or loss. (r) Finance costs Finance costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred, including interest on bank accounts and interest on short-term and long-term borrowings. Nagambie Resources Limited | 2019 Annual Report | Page 27 Notes to the Financial Statements 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) (s) Critical accounting estimates and judgements Exploration and evaluation costs Exploration and evaluation costs have been capitalised on the basis that the group may commence commercial production in the future, from which time the costs will be amortised in proportion to the depletion of the mineral resources. Key judgements are applied in considering costs to be capitalised which includes determining expenditures directly related to these activities and directly allocating overheads between those that are expensed and capitalised. In addition, costs are only capitalised that are expected to be recovered either through successful development or sale of the relevant mining interest or activities that are not at a stage that permits a reasonable estimate of the existence of economically recoverable reserves. Factors that could impact the future commercial production at the mine include the level of reserves and resources, future technology changes, which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes and changes in commodity prices. To the extent that capitalised costs are determined not to be recoverable in the future, they will be written off in the period in which this determination is made. Management have assessed the balance of capitalised exploration costs in line with future planned exploration activities and the group’s accounting policy and have determined that no impairment was necessary. If a tenement has been relinquished or reduced, then an impairment charge is taken. This charge is generally based on the pro-rata area reduced, however there can be other reasons for not using such an approach. When a tenement is not relinquished or reduced but is thought to be of reduced carrying value then an impairment based on management’s estimate of fair value has been applied. Any charge for impairment is recognised in profit or loss immediately and also shown at Note 9. Rehabilitation of tenements The group has considered whether a provision for rehabilitation of any tenement is required. The directors do not consider that such a provision is necessary due to the fact that rehabilitation is being undertaken on a progressive basis. Whilst the company is in exploration phase it cannot reliably estimate the scope and costs of rehabilitation work that will need to be undertaken. Recovery of deferred tax assets Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences only if the group considers it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Share based payments The group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using a Binomial valuation method of taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. The company employs an external consultant to complete the valuation and this takes into account the expected volatility of the share price as one of the key components of the valuation. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity-settled share-based payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact profit or loss and equity. Fair value of convertible notes Under the group’s accounting policy for convertible notes with cash redemption features, at initial recognition an amount equal to the fair value of the convertible notes issued is recognised as a financial liability (“debt”), and the residual value, being the proceeds of consideration less the debt component recognised at fair value, is recognised in equity. On initial recognition, the directors have assessed the terms of the convertible notes and determined that in their view the fair value of the debt component is equal to the proceeds such that there is no residual amount to be allocated to an equity component. In making this determination, the directors are of the view that the value of the consideration received, net of costs, provided reliable evidence of the fair value of the debt component of the convertible note. (t) Parent entity information In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the group only. Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 27. Nagambie Resources Limited | 2019 Annual Report | Page 28 Notes to the Financial Statements 3. New Accounting Standards for Application in Current and Future Periods The AASB has issued new and amended accounting standards and interpretations that have mandatory application dates for future reporting periods and which the Company has decided not to early adopt. In the directors’ view none of these standards and interpretations will have a material effect on these financial statements, with the exception of the following. Upon the adoption of AASB 16 Leases the group anticipates recognizing the present value of its operating lease commitments together with a right of use asset for the same amount in the statement of financial position. The right of use asset is expected to have a value of $0.5 million. Standard AASB 9 Financial Instruments AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers 4. Revenue and expenses Summary replaces IAS 39 Financial AASB 9 sets out requirements for recognising and measuring financial assets, financial liabilities and some contracts to buy or sell non-financial items. This Instruments: Recognition and standard Measurement. AASB 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognised. It replaces AASB 118 Revenue and related interpretations. Under AASB 15, revenue is recognised when a customer obtains control of the goods or services. The loss before income tax includes the following items of revenue and expenses. (a) Revenue Revenue from contracts with customers Rental income Sale of rock and quarry products Other revenue Interest Sundry income Total revenue (b) Expenses Employee benefits expense Employee benefits Share based payments expense Superannuation expense 5.

Loss per share Notes to the Financial Statements Consolidated 2019 $ 2018 $ Basic and diluted loss per share is calculated as net loss attributable to members of the parent, adjusted to exclude any costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element. Net loss 1,485,048 1,187,261 Weighted average number of ordinary shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share 428,548,060 404,039,474 Basic and diluted loss per share in cents 0.35 0.29 As discussed in Note 20, the company has issued options over its unissued share capital. All these options are anti- dilutive in nature due to the company incurring losses and the share price being less than the exercise price. They therefore have not been incorporated into the diluted earnings per share calculation. 7. Receivables Trade receivables Other receivables Total receivables 8.

These are guarantees for performance conditions set by the Department of Economic Development, Jobs, Transport and Resources Victoria on mining tenements held by the company. Those guarantees are held to cover any future rehabilitation obligations the company may have on the mining tenements. When all obligations in relation to a mining tenement are finalised, the relevant guarantee will be released and associated environmental bond will be redeemed. The deposits are shown as non-current assets since it is not expected that they will be repaid during the coming 12 months. These cash deposits earn interest for the company. 9.

Ordinary shares entitle their holder to one vote, either in person or by proxy, at a meeting of the company. The fully paid ordinary shares have no par value and the company does not have a limited amount of authorised capital. Share options granted under the employee share option plan As at 30 June 2019 there were 19,650,000 (2018 24,350,000) options over ordinary shares in respect of the employee share option plan. These options were issued in accordance with the provisions of the employee share option plan to executives and senior employees. Of these options 19,650,000 were vested by 30 June 2019 (2018: 24,350,000). Share options granted under the employee share option plan carry no rights to dividends and have no voting rights. Further details of the employee share option plan are contained in note 20 to the financial statements. Other share options on issue. As at 30 June 2019 there were 48,000,000 options over ordinary shares issued to directors (2018:33,250,000). Of these options 48,000,000 were vested by 30 June 2019 (2018: 33,250,000). The options carry no rights to dividends and have no voting rights. Further details of these options are shown in note 20 to the financial statements. (d) Capital management The group's objectives when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. The group would look to raise capital when an opportunity to invest in a business or company was seen as value adding relative to the current company's share price at the time of the investment. The group is not actively pursuing additional investments in the short term as it continues to integrate and grow its existing businesses in order to maximise synergies. The group is subject to equipment financing arrangements and meeting these is given priority in all capital risk management decisions. There have been no events of default on the financing arrangements during the financial year. The capital risk management policy remains unchanged from the 30 June 2018 Financial Statements.

Financial instruments The board of directors is responsible for m onitoring and managing the financial risk exposures of the group, to which end it monitors the financial risk management policies and exposures and approves financial transactions and reviews related internal controls within the scope of its authority. The board has determined that the only significant financial risk exposure of the group is liquidity risk. Other financial risks are not significant to the group due to the following: − − − − − − It has no foreign exchange risk as all of its account balances and transactions are in Australian Dollars; It has no significant outstanding receivable balances that have a credit risk; Its mining operations are in the exploration phase and therefore have no direct exposure to movements in commodity prices; All of the interest bearing instruments are held at amortised cost which have fair values that approximate their carrying values since all cash and payables (except for convertible notes refer note 15) have maturity dates within one financial year. Term deposits on environmental bonds and convertible notes have interest rate yields consistent with current market rates; All of the financing for the group is from equity and convertible note instruments, and The group has no externally imposed capital requirements with the exception of an ASX requirement to not issue more than 25% of its share capital through a placement in a 12-month period.

Share-based payments The group has an ownership-based remuneration scheme for executives (including executive directors) of the group. In accordance with the provisions of the scheme, as approved by shareholders at a previous annual general meeting, executives with the company may be granted options to purchase parcels of ordinary shares at an exercise price determined at the discretion of the board of directors. Each executive share option converts into one ordinary share of Nagambie Resources Limited on exercise. No amounts are paid or payable by the recipient on receipt of the option. The options carry neither right to dividends nor voting rights. Options may be exercised at any time from the date of vesting to the date of their expiry. The number of options granted is at the discretion of the board of directors. The options granted expire five years after their issue, or one month after the resignation of the executive, whichever is the earlier. The total of options on issue is 67,650,000 (2018: 57,600,000). Of these 28,650,000 (2018: 24,350,000) have been issued to executives and employees and the balance of 39,000,000 (2018: 33,250,000) have been issued to directors as approved by shareholders. Information with respect to the number of all options granted including executive options is as follows.

Amounts are transferred out of the reserve and into issued capital when the options are exercised. (iii) There are no vesting conditions for the above options The weighted average fair value of the share options granted during the financial year is 3.90 cents (2018: 2.80 cents). Options were priced using a Binomial option valuation model. Where relevant, the expected life used in the model has been adjusted based on management’s best estimate for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions (including the probability of meeting market conditions attached to the option), and behavioural considerations. Expected volatility is based on the historical share price volatility over the past 3 years. The options may be exercised early, but not before vesting date.
