Last year I emphasised the new strategic gold exploration partnership between Nagambie Resources and Mawson Gold Limited (“Mawson”). This year has seen the development of another very important strategic partnership, this time with Golden Camel Mining Pty Ltd (“GCM”). Gold Toll Treatment Plant Joint Venture with GCM The Nagambie Mine site has long been recognised as an ideal location for a toll treatment plant. Located beside the Goulburn Valley Freeway and just north of the Hume Freeway, it could service numerous potential gold mines in central Victoria and further east in Victoria’s higher country – including several existing deposits north of Bendigo, Mawson’s Sunday Creek deposit to the south of Nagambie, Fosterville South Exploration’s Golden Mountain deposit to the east of Nagambie, and GCM’s Golden Camel deposit to the east of Fosterville. The 50:50 joint venture with GCM makes perfect sense for both companies. Nagambie Resources is providing a developed site with all necessary existing infrastructure and within over 1,500 acres of freehold land that will allow for potential future plant expansions and future dry-stacked tailings areas. GCM provides all the funding for the construction and commissioning of the initial 180,000 tonnes per annum plant and first tailings area. GCM also provides the initial early years’ ore feed for the plant from its’ Golden Camel Mine oxide-gold deposit. GCM have hit the ground running. Following the approval for the plant construction in August 2021, components for the CIL circuit began arriving in containers at the Nagambie Mine this month. GCM’s schedule calls for commissioning and first gold bar production in the June quarter 2022. For Nagambie Resources shareholders, the toll treatment plant will be a great sustainable business producing strong cash flow and will add significant value to our over 3,300 sq km of gold exploration tenements. Most immediately, it greatly improves the potential economics of our most advanced 100%-owned gold exploration project, the Nagambie Mine Feeder Zone underground gold target. Nagambie Mine Sulphide-Gold Feeder Zone Target Deep oriented diamond drilling of the RAD002, NWD001 and NAD004 holes, all plus 1,000m in depth, was carried out during the year. Detailed logging of the sedimentary bedding strikes for the NWD001 and NAD004 holes, together with those for the earlier NAD001, NND001 and NND002 holes, now indicates consistent parallel curvature to the south west of the Nagambie Mine gold-hosting sediments towards the interpreted Wandean Crustal Fault (WCF). The WCF is considered to be the source of the deep hydrothermal crustal fluids that resulted in the precipitation of the Nagambie Mine gold/arsenic/antimony mineralisation. The south-west sulphide-gold feeder zone target that results from this new geological interpretation extends for around 1.3 km between the West Pit and the WCF. The drilling of NAD005 into this target zone is well advanced and planning for NAD006 has commenced. North East Link Project (NELP) and Potential PASS Contract The Victorian Government “Big Build” timing has been affected by Covid-19. Following the close of tenders in May 2020, the Spark consortium was announced as the Preferred Bidder for the construction of NELP in June 2021. The signing of Financial Close documentation by the State and Spark, that would allow the finalisation of Spark subcontracts and the physical commencement of the project, is yet to occur. The NELP will require the management of over five million tonnes of PASS rock to be excavated by large tunnel boring machines. The Spark consortium has been progressively engaging with Nagambie Resources for more specific technical and pricing information regarding “Underwater Storage” PASS Management at the Nagambie Mine and Nagambie Resources continues to be confident of being able to secure a significant contract. $3.5 Million Convertible Note Fund Raising In April this year, $3.5 million worth of Series 9 five-year Notes with a face value of $0.10 each were issued, the largest raising by the Company since its’ IPO in 2006. Uses of the funding included the strategic acquisition of a 565 acres farm immediately to the south of the mine, the continued diamond drilling of the Nagambie Mine Feeder Zone target, and the early redemption of all the Series 5 Notes totalling $0.6 million. 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, our joint venture partners, and our various excellent consultants for another productive year. Mike Trumbull Executive Chairman 28 October 2021 Nagambie Resources Limited | 2021 Annual Report | Page 1 CEO’s Operations & Exploration Review CEO’s OPERATIONS & EXPLORATION REVIEW GOLD EXPLORATION Gold exploration for Fosterville-style high-grade underground sulphide-gold deposits in Nagambie Resources’ tenements continued to be methodically advanced during the year – both by Nagambie Resources at its’ developing 100%-owned Nagambie Mine Feeder Zone target and by Mawson Gold Limited (“Mawson”) at the Whroo and Redcastle joint venture properties. Nagambie Resources’ Diamond Drilling in 2020/2021 Deep diamond drilling of RAD002 (1,090m down hole depth into the Racecourse ground IP target), NWD001 (1,091m depth into the Nagambie West ground IP target) and NAD004 (1,084m depth into the Nagambie South West radial-down-the-hole IP target) was carried out during the year. Detailed logging of the sedimentary bedding strikes for the NWD001 and NAD004 holes, together with those for the NAD001, NND001 and NND002 holes, now indicates consistent parallel curvature to the south west of the Nagambie Mine bedding towards the Wandean Crustal Fault (WCF). The WCF is considered to be the source of the deep hydrothermal crustal fluids that resulted in the precipitation of the Nagambie Mine gold/arsenic/antimony mineralisation. The south-west sulphide-gold target zone that results from this new geological interpretation extends for around 1.3 km between the West Pit and the WCF. The drilling of NAD005 into this target zone is nearing completion and planning for NAD006 is being carried out. Figure 1 Plan showing Bedding Strike Curvature in the Nagambie Mine West Area Gold Tenements The Company’s tenements as at 30 September 2021, totalling 3,384 sq km, are listed in Table 1. GOLD TOLL TREATMENT PLANT AT THE NAGAMBIE MINE During the year, Nagambie Resources (“NRL”) and Golden Camel Mining Pty Ltd (“GCM”) jointly submitted an application to the Strathbogie Shire for the construction, commissioning, operation and rehabilitation of a gold toll treatment plant at the Nagambie Mine. Following a community advertising period, during which no objections were received by the Shire, approval was granted in August 2021. Principal terms of the Joint Venture (“JV”) Agreement between NRL and GCM include:  For the initial treatment plant with a nominal capacity of 180,000 tonnes of ore per annum, GCM will pay for all the procurement, construction and commissioning costs and pay for the first fill of all consumables. GCM will also pay for the upgrade of associated site infrastructure such as the main mine entry, power supply and internal haul roads; Nagambie Resources Limited | 2021 Annual Report | Page 2 CEO’s Operations & Exploration Review  Once steady state ore throughput and gold recovery has been achieved, all toll treatment revenues, operating costs, rehabilitation costs and sustaining capital will be shared 50:50 by NRL and GCM;  All future plant expansions and gold recovery improvements will be paid for 50:50 by NRL and GCM;  GCM will be the Manager of the JV with NRL and GCM being equally represented on the JV Committee. All JV Committee decisions will be unanimous and there will be no fee payable to the Manager;  The initial ore will be trucked from GCM’s Golden Camel Mine;  Toll treatment charges for third parties providing ore to the plant will be approved by the JV Committee based on recommendations from the Manager; and  If NRL proceeds to recover residual gold from the historic Nagambie Mine Heap Leach Pad using bacterial solutions, the JV will periodically treat the pregnant solution and pour gold bars to NRL’s account. The layout of the facility is shown in cross section on the front cover and in 3D in Figure 3. Detailed design is progressing and construction is scheduled to commence in November 2021 with commissioning to occur in the June 2022 quarter. Components for the CIL circuit arrived in containers in October 2021 (refer Photo 1). The facility will utilise leading technology to minimise environmental impacts. The JV is also investigating the option of augmenting grid power with renewable solar energy, utilising NRL’s extensive land ownership surrounding the mine.

PASS capacity of the pits is over five million tonnes. The water in the Nagambie Mine open pits is naturally saline and alkaline, making it ideal for PASS management. Nagambie Resources Limited | 2021 Annual Report | Page 4 Photo 1 Components for the Gold Toll Treatment Plant in containers at the Nagambie Mine, October 2021 CEO’s Operations & Exploration Review The Spark consortium has been announced as the Preferred Bidder for the construction of the North East Link in Melbourne, which will require the management of over five million tonnes of PASS rock to be excavated by large tunnel boring machines. The Spark consortium has been progressively engaging with Nagambie Resources for more specific technical and pricing information regarding “Underwater Storage” PASS Management at the Nagambie Mine. POTENTIAL BACTERIAL RECOVERY OF GOLD IN HISTORIC HEAP LEACH PAD Total recorded gold production from the Nagambie Mine cyanide heap between 1989 and 1997 was 134,000 ounces and Nagambie Resources considers that a significant amount of gold remains in the heap. Nagambie Resources is investigating the ways it could recover residual gold from the heap using naturally-occurring bacteria and during the year selected a Perth laboratory to carry out the required bacterial speciation and gold bioleaching testwork. Samples of the heap leach material were sent to the laboratory so that DNA analysis of the native bacteria could be carried out. Bacteria strains from an external culture collection are also being analysed for their gold bioleaching capability.

Both of these groups are global engineering and environmental consultancies. James has also lectured at the Australian National University. 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. Review of Operations Deep diamond drilling of RAD002 (1,090m down hole depth into the Racecourse ground IP target), NWD001 (1,091m depth into the Nagambie West ground IP target) and NAD004 (1,084m depth into the Nagambie South West radial- down-the-hole IP target) was carried out during the year. Detailed logging of the bedding strikes for the NWD001 and NAD004 holes, together with those for the NAD001, NND001 and NND002 holes, now indicates consistent parallel curvature to the south west of the Nagambie Mine bedding towards the Wandean Crustal Fault (WCF). The WCF is considered to be the source of the deep hydrothermal crustal fluids that resulted in the precipitation of the Nagambie Mine gold/arsenic/antimony mineralisation. The south-west sulphide-gold target zone that results from this new geological interpretation extends for around 1.3 km between the West Pit and the WCF. The drilling of NAD005 into this target zone has commenced. The Spark consortium has been announced as the Preferred Bidder for the construction of the North East Link in Melbourne, which will require the management of over five million tonnes of PASS rock to be excavated by large tunnel boring machines. The Spark consortium has been progressively engaging with Nagambie Resources for more specific technical and pricing information regarding “Underwater Storage” PASS Management at the Nagambie Mine. Bacterial speciation and gold bioleaching testwork began at the Perth laboratory chosen by Nagambie Resources to investigate the recovery of residual gold from the 1990s heap leach pad at the Nagambie Mine. Samples of the heap leach material were sent to the laboratory so that DNA analysis of the native bacteria could be carried out. Bacteria strains from an external culture collection were also to be analysed for their gold bioleaching capability. In the second half of the year, the Company and Golden Camel Mining Pty Ltd (GCM) applied for a Planning Permit from the Strathbogie Shire to construct and operate a 180,000 tonnes per annum gold toll treatment plant at the Nagambie Mine. Nagambie Resources purchased the 565-acre farm immediately to the south of the East Pit at the Nagambie Mine for $905,000. Total contiguous freehold land controlled by the Company at the mine now exceeds 1,500 acres and provides further options for mine access, future treatment plant tailings storage etc. Funding for the farm purchase came from the issue in April 2021 of $3.5 million of 5-year, 10.0% per annum interest convertible notes, convertible 1:1 into fully paid ordinary Nagambie Resources shares at any time during the term at 10.0 cents per note. Nagambie Resources Limited | 2021 Annual Report | Page 8 Directors’ Report Covid-19 Impacts The Covid-19 pandemic continued to affect activities throughout the year. Lockdowns in Melbourne and regional Victoria resulted in some exploration drilling delays and various site visits being delayed, although the internet and virtual meetings did allow personnel to work from home. Likely Developments During the 2022 financial year, Nagambie Resources is planning to: 1. Complete NAD005 and continue drilling the Nagambie South-West sulphide-gold target; 2. Assist Golden Camel wherever required to construct and commission the gold toll treatment at the Nagambie Mine; 3. Secure an “Underwater Storage” PASS Management contract with the Spark consortium for some of the over five million tonnes of PASS rock to be excavated from the road tunnels for the North East Link; 4. Continue the laboratory testwork to recover residual gold from the Nagambie Mine heap leach pad; and 5. Carry out detailed investigations for the commencement of mining of the sand and gravel resources established at the Nagambie Mine. Financial Matters The consolidated loss for the group for the year amounted to $1,717,138 after tax. This compared to a loss after tax for the year ended 30 June 2020 of $876,491. The increase of $840,647 in the loss for the year arises after a decrease in revenue of $20,998 an increase in expenditures of $92,025 and no R&D tax incentive of $727,624. After a gain on disposal of $455,484 and a decrease of $1,547,998 in the carrying value of the shares in Mawson Gold Limited is taken into account as Other comprehensive income there is a Total comprehensive loss of $2,808,652 for the year. There were no new shares issued during the year but $3,500,000 raised from the issue of 35,000,000 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 On the 16 July 2021 the balance of $814,500 was settled for the purchase of 228.6 hectares of farmland immediately to the south of the East Pit at the Nagambie Mine. Gary Davison resigned as non-executive director of the company on 8 September 2021 and Bill Colvin was appointed non-executive director. The Strathbogie Shire Council issued a planning permit for the removal of vegetation and the construction, operation, tailings disposal and rehabilitation of a gold toll treatment plant at the Nagambie Mine with Golden Camel Mining Pty Ltd. On the 4 July 2021 2,000,000 share options expired. Other than these disclosures 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. Environmental regulations The company’s exploration and mining tenements are located in Victoria. The operation of these tenements is subject to compliance with the Victorian and Commonwealth mining and environmental regulations and legislation. Licence requirements relating to ground disturbance, rehabilitation and waste disposal exist for all tenements held. The directors are not aware of any ongoing breaches of mining and environmental regulations and legislation during the year and up to the date of this report.

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 2021, the board resolved that the executive chairman’s remuneration be set at $150,000 (2020: $150,000) per annum excluding superannuation and share based payments. For non-executive directors, remuneration was set at $42,000 (2020: $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.

Executive Options The Group has an ownership-based remuneration scheme for staff and executives (including executive and non- executive directors) of the company. In accordance with the provisions of the scheme, as approved by shareholders at a previous annual general meeting, staff and executives of 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 share option converts into one ordinary share of Nagambie Resources Limited on exercise by the payment of the exercise price. No amounts are paid or payable by the recipient on receipt of the options. 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 of the company. The options granted expire five years after their issue or one month after the resignation of the staff member or executive, whichever is the earlier, or as otherwise determined by the board of directors. There are 75,300,000 share options on issue under this plan, of which 48,000,000 are held by directors and key management personnel and 27,300,000 are held by other current and former executives and employees.

General information Nagambie Resources Limited (the Company) is a listed for-profit public company, incorporated in Australia and operating in Victoria. The registered office and principal place of business for the Company are located at 533 Zanelli Road, Nagambie Vic 3608. These financial statements were authorised for issue on the date of the signing of the attached Directors’ Declaration. 2. Significant accounting policies Statement of compliance The financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and the Corporations Regulations 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations. The financial statements include the consolidated financial statements of the group. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) ensures that the financial statements and notes of the group comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’). Basis of preparation The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis using historical cost with the exception of certain assets measured at fair value. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, which is the functional and presentation currency of the Company and its controlled entities. Comparative information where necessary has been reclassified in order to achieve consistency in presentation with amounts disclosed in the current year. Changes in accounting policies Other than the policies described below there have been no changes in accounting policies. The following significant accounting policies have been adopted in the preparation and presentation of the financial statements: (a) (b) (c) (d) Going concern The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. 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 Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. 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. 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. 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. Nagambie Resources Limited | 2021 Annual Report | Page 20 Notes to the Financial Statements 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 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: the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and (i) (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 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. Nagambie Resources Limited | 2021 Annual Report | Page 21 Notes to the Financial Statements 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) (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 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(g) above). (i) Right of use assets A right of use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right of use asset is measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable; any lease payment made at or before the commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and except where included in the cost of inventories, an estimate of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlying asset and restoring the site or asset. Right of use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. When the Group expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right of use assets are subject to impairment or adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. Nagambie Resources Limited | 2021 Annual Report | Page 22 Notes to the Financial Statements 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) The Group has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-term leases with a term of 12 months or leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expensed to profit or loss as incurred. (j) Lease liabilities A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised at the present value of the lease payment to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments comprise of fixed payments, less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option is reasonably certain to occur and any anticipated termination penalties. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured if there is a change in the following; future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a rate used, residual guarantees, lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an adjustment is made to the following right-of-use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written down. 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. (k) 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. (l) 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. (m) 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 revenue is recognised 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. 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. Nagambie Resources Limited | 2021 Annual Report | Page 23 Notes to the Financial Statements 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) Rental revenue Property rental income is recognised on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease term. When rental income is received in advance at the end of a period it is recognised as income in the following period to which it relates. Government Grants Government grants are recognised when the Group has reasonable assurance that conditions will be complied with and the grant will be received (n) 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. (o) 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. (p) (q) 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. 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. (r) 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. 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. Investments and other financial assets Investments and other financial assets are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs are included as part of the initial measurement, except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Such assets are subsequently measured at either amortised cost or fair value depending on their classification. (s) (t) Nagambie Resources Limited | 2021 Annual Report | Page 24 Notes to the Financial Statements 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) Classification is determined based on both the business model within which such assets are held and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset unless an accounting mismatch is being avoided. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows have expired or have been transferred and the company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. When there is no reasonable expectation of recovering part or all of a financial asset, it’s carrying value is written off (u) (v) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income include equity investments which the company intends to hold and has irrevocably elected to classify them as such upon initial recognition. There are two types of FVOCI accounting under AASB 9 (Equity FVOCI and Debt FVOCI) Impairment of financial assets The company recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets which are either measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. The measurement of the loss allowance depends upon the company’s assessment at the end of each reporting period as to whether the financial instrument’s credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, based on reasonable and supportable information that is available, without undue cost or effort to obtain. Where there has not been a significant increase in exposure to credit risk since initial recognition, a 12-month expected credit loss allowance is estimated. This represents a portion of the asset’s lifetime expected credit losses that is attributable to a default event that is possible within the next 12 months. Where a financial asset has become credit impaired or where it is determined that credit risk has increased significantly, the loss allowance is based on the asset’s lifetime expected credit losses. The amount of expected credit loss recognised is measured on the basis of the probability weighted present value of anticipated cash shortfalls over the life of the instrument discounted at the original effective interest rate. For financial assets mandatorily measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the loss allowance is recognised in other comprehensive income with a corresponding expense through profit or loss. In all other cases, the loss allowance reduces the asset’s carrying value with a corresponding expense through profit or loss. (w) 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. Nagambie Resources Limited | 2021 Annual Report | Page 25 Notes to the Financial Statements 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 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. (x) Fair value measurement hierarchy The company is required to classify all assets and liabilities, measured at fair value, using a three level hierarchy, based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the entire fair value measurement, being: Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date; 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. Considerable judgement is required to determine what is significant to fair value and therefore which category the asset or liability is placed in can be subjective. (y) 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 29. 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, Standard Mandatory date for annual reporting periods beginning on or after Reporting period standard adopted by the company The revised Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting 1 January 2020 1 July 2020 AASB 2018-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Definition of a Business AASB 2018-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Definition of Material AASB 2020-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Classification of liabilities as Current or Non- Current 1 January 2020 1 July 2020 1 January 2020 1 July 2020 1 January 2023 1 July 2023 Nagambie Resources Limited | 2021 Annual Report | Page 26 Notes to the Financial Statements 4.

Loss per share 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. 3,323 (171,485) 5,201 (127,301) (346,979) (359,135) - - 727,624 727,624 5,527,182 5,180,203 Net loss Weighted average number of ordinary shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share Basic and diluted loss per share in cents 1,717,138 876,491 499,932,346 458,442,320 0.34 0.19 Nagambie Resources Limited | 2021 Annual Report | Page 27 Notes to the Financial Statements As discussed in Note 22, 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.

There are no shares subject to escrow periods which expire beyond that time. The difference between fair value at balance date and the cost at the date of the transaction for equity investments is $1,091,514 loss (2020 $1,236,697 profit). This amount is reflected in an Asset revaluation reserve and shown at Note15. Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income relate to Mawson Gold Limited which are ordinary shares in a company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange. These have been valued at the quoted prices at accordance with AASB 13, using Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities AASB 13 'Fair Value Measurement' requires disclosure of fair value measurements by level of the fair value hierarchy, as follows: 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; Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). 9. Security deposits Non-current assets Security deposits - environmental bonds (i) Deposit on land Total other assets (i) Security deposits – environmental bonds 589,559 150,000 739,559 559,213 150,000 709,213 The company holds security deposits, in the form of term deposits with its banker. 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.

Ordinary shares entitle their holder to one vote, either in person or 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 2021 there were 27,300,000 (2020 29,450,000) 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 27,300,000 were vested by 30 June 2021 (2020: 29,450,000). 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 22 to the financial statements. Nagambie Resources Limited | 2021 Annual Report | Page 30 Notes to the Financial Statements 14. Issued capital (continued) Other share options on issue As at 30 June 2021 there were 48,000,000 options over ordinary shares issued to directors (2020:43,000,000). Of these options 48,000,000 were vested by 30 June 2021 (2020: 43,000,000). The options carry no rights to dividends and have no voting rights. Further details of these options are shown in note 22 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 2020 Financial Statements. 15.

Financial instruments The board of directors is responsible for monitoring 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 exposures of the group are liquidity risk and market 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 17) 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 75,300,000 (2020: 72,450,000). Of these 27,300,000 (2020: 29,450,000) have been issued to executives and employees and the balance of 48,000,000 (2020: 43,000,000) have been issued to directors and key management personnel.

(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 4.04 cents (2020: 3.90 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.
