REVIEW OF OPERATIONS 

Odin Metals Limited is an Australian based resources company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange 
(ASX: ODM). The Company’s projects comprise exploration claims covering ground located in Ontario, Canada 
(where the Company is exploring for zinc-copper-lead-silver) and in Western Australia (where the company is 
exploring for nickel via the Silver Swan North joint venture).  The Sturgeon Lake Project is located 60km North 
of Ignace, Ontario on an all-weather paved highway.  The Sturgeon Lake Project properties are strategically 
located  in  a  proven  mining  camp  with  the  potential  for  multiple  satellite  orebodies.  The  geology  is 
representative  of  VMS  style  mineralization  with  the  eastern  extension  of  the  volcanic  complex  largely 
underexplored.

 Directors’ Report 

Sturgeon Lake Project (100%)  

The Sturgeon Lake Project is an Earn-in Option Agreement with Glencore Canada Corporation, located 250km 
NW of the mining town of Thunder Bay, Ontario. It is accessed via the nearby national highway then by paved 
road to the site. Local infrastructure includes grid power and plentiful water.  

Sturgeon Lake hosts the highly prospective Mattabi VMS (volcanogenic massive sulphide) belt (>20km strike), 
which was host to multiple historic Zinc - Copper base metal deposits. Concentrated exploration was mostly 
carried  out  in  the  1970’s,  followed  by  the  mining  of  3  shallow  open  pits  and  2  small  underground 
developments in the 1980’s. Historical production totalled 19.8Mt @ 8.5% Zn, 1.06% Cu, 0.91% Pb, and 120g/t 
Ag (Source : Geology Ontario  - Ministry of Energy, Northern Development and Mines). Other than targeted 
drilling  at  the  Abitibi  Zone,  the  project  has  lain  dormant  since.    The  Abitibi  Zone  was  targeted  by  historic 
drilling from 2011 to 2013, producing consistent excellent results, including high-grade zones. Work to date 
appears to identify two distinct zones of mineralisation (Upper and Lower Zone), with potential for  a third 
zone that is poorly defined to date. No further field work has been done since 2013. Results from this work 
included: 

F-140  34.00 m @ 3.98% Zn from 401.00m 

Incl. 9.00 m @ 8.74% Zn from 409.00m 
And 5.00 m @ 0.21% Zn, 2.90% Cu from 440.00m 

F-145  Lower Zone 
Upper Zone 

10.63 m @ 16.09% Zn, 1.22 %Pb, 142 g/t Ag from 621.86m 
25.56 m @ 7.64% Zn from 641.24m 

F-152  Lower Zone 

11.44 m @ 9.20% Zn, 1.16% Pb, 143 g/t Ag from 610.06m 
Incl. 6.00 m @ 16.88% Zn, 1.00% Cu, 2.08% Pb, 255 g/t Ag from 615.50m 

*  See  ASX  Announcement  “Exploration  Update  –  Sturgeon  Lake”,  27  March  2019,  for  Drilling  Results,  Competent  Person’s  Consent, 
material assumptions, and technical parameters concerning historical drilling at the Abitibi Zone. Grades are uncut. Depths and widths 
are downhole. 

During the year the Company completed an airborne VTEM survey (airborne electromagnetics) at Sturgeon 
Lake. Approximately 1,800 survey line kilometres were flown. The new VTEM data shows numerous new (mid 
to late time) EM anomalies, many of which are located within the prospective VMS corridor. The late time EM 
response (highly anomalous) at the Abitibi Zone can also be seen clearly.

 Directors’ Report 

The Company is extremely encouraged by the preliminary data showing numerous new targets previously 
not identified by previous historic work which mostly all dates from the 1970-80’s, long before the advent of 
modern airborne EM techniques. Preliminary imagery shows numerous mid to late time EM anomalies, many 
of which are located within the prospective VMS corridor. 

Figure 2 | VTEM Geophysical Survey Image (Chanel 35, Mid-time) Showing Significant EM 
Anomalies and Existing Pits 

Subsequent  to  the  completion  of  the  VTEM  an  extensive  programme  of  drilling  has  commenced.  The  drill 
programme  comprises  of  13  holes  for  an  expanded  total  of  6,400  m.  This  programme  covers  extensional 
drilling at the Abitibi Zone along with drill testing an additional 8 new high priority targets. Drill targets consist 
of: 

▪  An initial 5 follow-up holes at the Abitibi Zone where drilling from 2011 to 2013 intersected consistent high-

grade3 zinc;  

▪  From the recently completed 2019 VTEM survey, 4 high priority targets have been chosen for drill testing 

in the current programme; 

▪  A priority target generated from a recently completed ground gravity survey completed as part of ongoing 

post graduate research in the region; 

▪  The highest priority targets from the 2010 HTEM (Electromagnetic) survey in the western portion of the 

tenements, which were never follow-up; and 

▪  Priority  conceptual  geological/structural  target  located  on  the  VMS  trend  and  target  stratigraphy,  that 

remain untested from previous work at Swamp Lake. 

Drilling  has  now  commenced  on  land-based  targets  generated  in  the  2019  VTEM  survey,  while  final 
preparations are made for drilling o commence on the barge for the priority follow-up drilling at the Abitibi 
Zone.

Glencore Canada Corporation 

On 4 February 2019 the Company announced the signing of an Earn-in Option Agreement with Glencore 
Canada Corporation (“Glencore”) in further consolidation by Odin of the prospective Sturgeon Lake Cu, Zn, 
Pb, Ag District on the historical Mattabi Zinc-Copper Trend, Ontario, Canada.   

Under this Earn-in Option Agreement Glencore has granted the option to Odin to acquire a 50% interest 
in  the  Glencore  Sturgeon  Lake  Properties  (“Glencore  Properties”)  (Figure  4)  and  associated  assets  by 
expending not less than CAD 6.67m on them over a three-year period with Glencore to be Operator (CAD 
2m  in  year  1,  CAD  2m  in  year  2  and  CAD  2.67m  in  year  3).  Upon  satisfaction  of  these  expenditure 
requirements  and  certain  other  conditions,  Odin  can  enter  into  a  joint  venture  with  Glencore  on  the 
Glencore Properties. 

In addition to the Earn-in expenditure, Odin has granted to Glencore the option to acquire a 50% interest 
in adjacent and nearby properties owned (or which may be owned) by Odin (“Odin Properties”) (Figure 4). 

Odin agreed to grant Glencore Share Options to acquire up to 50,000,000 shares in Odin (exercisable at a 
price of $0.40 per share) for a period of one year (“Share Options Exercise Period”) from the exercise and 
closing  of  the  Earn-in  Option  Agreement.    If  at  any  time  during  the  Share  Options  Exercise  Period,  the 
number of Glencore Share Options held result in a fully diluted Glencore holding of less than 19.99% of 
the Company’s issued shares, then Glencore may elect to purchase an additional 20% interest in the joint 
venture for $20 million (“Bump Up Right”).   

If Glencore do exercise the Bump Up Right the Glencore Shareholder Options will lapse.  Alternatively, if 
Glencore elect to exercise any amount of the Glencore Share Options then the Bump Up right will lapse.

Australian Projects 

The Silver Swan North Joint Venture with Moho Resources Ltd (“Moho”) encompasses Mining Lease M27/263 
and Exploration Licence E27/345 located in the world-class Kalgoorlie, nickel and gold mining district. Moho 
has satisfied the stage 1 and stage 2 earn-in requirements under the farm-in joint venture agreement with 
Odin and has subsequently earned a 51% interest in the tenements. 

Moho recently completed 2 RC drill holes in E27/345 as part of its maiden nickel sulphide drill programme. 
RC drilling of a defined conductive SQUID EM target identified the source as a black shale unit with no nickel 
mineralisation  present.  A  program  of  approximately  3,000m  of  air  core  drilling  on  E27/345  has  been 
scheduled for late 2019. 

No other ground activities were undertaken on Odin’s other Australian tenement holdings during the  year.  
The Company also relinquished E27/510 during the year.

Remuneration Policy 

The Board is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for the Directors and 
Executive Officers.  The Board assesses the appropriateness of the nature and  amount of emoluments of 
such  officers  on  a  yearly  basis  by  reference  to  relevant  employment  market  conditions  with  the  overall 
objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high-quality board and executive 
team. The expected outcome of this remuneration structure is to retain and motivate Directors and Executive 
Officers. 

As part of its Corporate Governance Policies and Procedures, the board has adopted a formal Remuneration 
Committee  Charter  and  Remuneration  Policy.  The  Board  has  elected  not  to  establish  a  remuneration 
committee based on the size of the organisation and has instead agreed to meet as deemed necessary and 
allocate the appropriate time at its board meetings. 

Fees  and  payments  to  non‑executive  directors  reflect  the  demands  which  are  made  on,  and  the 
responsibilities of, the directors. Non‑executive directors’ fees and payments are reviewed annually by the 
Board.  The  Chair’s  fees  are  determined  independently  to  the  fees  of  non‑executive  directors  based  on 
comparative roles in the external market.  Non‑executive directors do not receive performance-based pay.

duties or otherwise performs services outside the scope of the ordinary duties of a Director.  A Director may 
also be reimbursed for out of pocket expenses incurred as a result of their directorship or any special duties.

a) the Company’s share price being equal to or greater than a volume weighted average price of $0.40 or 

more for 20 consecutive trading days on the ASX; and 

b) the occurrence of a Change of Control Event. 

No option holder has any right under the options to participate in any other share issue of the Company or 
any other entity.  Options granted as part of remuneration have been valued using the Black Scholes option 
pricing model that takes into account the  exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the 
share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share and the risk-free interest rate 
for the term of the option.  Options granted under the plan carry no dividend or voting rights. For details on 
the valuation of options, including models and assumptions used, please refer to note 17.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2019 

1.  Corporate Information 

The financial report of Odin Metals Limited (“Odin Metals” or “the Company”) for the year ended 30 June 2019 
was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 19 September 2019. Odin Metals 
is a company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are traded on the Australian Securities 
Exchange.  The  nature  of  the  operations  and  the  principal  activities  of  the  Company  are  described  in  the 
Directors’ Report. 

2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 
(a) Basis of Preparation 

The financial statements are general-purpose financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance 
with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative 
pronouncements  of  the  Australian  Accounting  Standards  Board.  The  financial  statements  have  also  been 
prepared on a historical cost basis. The presentation currency is Australian dollars. 

Parent entity information 

In  accordance  with  the  Corporations  Act  2001,  these  financial  statements  present  the  results  of  the 
consolidated entity only. Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 20. 

(b) Compliance Statement 

The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards, which include Australian equivalents to 
International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report, 
comprising  the  financial  statements  and  notes  thereto,  complies  with  International  Financial  Reporting 
Standards (IFRS). 

(c) Basis of Consolidation 

The  consolidated  financial  statements  comprise  the  financial  statements  of  Odin  Metals  Limited  (‘the 
Company’) and its subsidiaries as at 30 June each year (‘the Group’). Subsidiaries are those entities over which 
the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from their 
activities. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are 
considered when assessing whether a Company controls another entity. 

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all intercompany balances and transactions, income and 
expenses  and  profit  and  losses  resulting  from  intra-company  transactions  have  been  eliminated  in  full. 
Unrealised  losses  are  also  eliminated  unless  costs  cannot  be  recovered.  Non-controlling  interests  in  the 
results  and  equity  of  subsidiaries  are  shown  separately  in  the  Statement  of  Profit  or  Loss  and  Other 
Comprehensive Income and Consolidated Statement of Financial Position respectively. 

(d) Foreign Currency Translation 

(i)Functional and presentation currency  
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Company’s controlled entities are measured using 
the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (‘the  functional currency’). 
The functional and presentation currency of Odin Metals Limited is Australian dollars. The functional currency 
of the Canadian subsidiary is the Canadian Dollar. 

(ii) Transactions and balances 
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing 
at  the  dates  of  the  transactions.  Foreign  exchange  gains  and  losses  resulting  from  the  settlement  of  such 
transactions  and  from  the  translation  at  year-end  exchange  rates  of  monetary  assets  and  liabilities 
denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive 
income.

 Odin Metals Limited 

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2019 

 (iii) Group entities 
The  results  and  financial  position  of  all  the  Group  entities  (none  of  which  has  the  currency  of  a 
hyperinflationary  economy)  that  have  a  functional  currency  different  from  the  presentation  currency  are 
translated into the presentation currency as follows: 

▪ 

▪ 

▪ 

assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing rate 
at the date of that statement of financial position; 
income  and  expenses  for  each  statement  of  profit  or  loss  and  other  comprehensive  income  are 
translated  at  average  exchange  rates  (unless  this  is  not  a  reasonable  approximation  of  the  rates 
prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the 
transactions); and 
all resulting exchange differences are recognised as a separate component of equity. 

On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of any net investment in foreign entities 
are taken to shareholders’ equity. When a foreign operation is sold or any borrowings forming part of the net 
investment are repaid, a proportionate share of such exchange differences are recognised in the statement 
of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, as part of the gain or loss on sale where applicable. 

(e) Segment Reporting 

For  management  purposes,  the  Company  is  organised  into  one  main  operating  segment,  which  involves 
exploration for copper and base metals. All of the Company’s activities are interrelated, and discrete financial 
information  is  reported  to  the  management  (Chief  Operating  Decision  Makers)  as  a  single  segment. 
Accordingly, all significant operating decisions are based upon analysis of the Company as one segment. The 
financial results from this segment are equivalent to the financial statements of the Company as a whole. 

(f) Changes in accounting policies and disclosures 

The Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that 
are relevant to the Company’s operations and effective for future reporting periods. It has been determined 
by  the  Directors  that  there  is  no  impact,  material  or  otherwise,  of  the  new  and  revised  Standards  and 
Interpretations on the Company and therefore, no change will be necessary to Company accounting policies. 

(g) Exploration and evaluation expenditure 

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 balance date reached a 
stage  which  permits  a  reasonable  assessment  of  the  existence  or  otherwise  of  economically 
recoverable reserves, and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are 
continuing. 

Exploration and evaluation assets are 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 measurement of exploration and evaluation costs 
where they are related directly to operational activities in a particular area of interest.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2019 

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 (for 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 has been made to proceed with development in respect of a particular area of interest, the 
relevant  exploration  and  evaluation  asset  is  tested  for  impairment  and  the  balance  is  then  reclassified  to 
development.  Where an area of interest is abandoned, any expenditure carried forward in respect of that 
area is written off. 

(h) Income Tax 

The income tax expense or benefit for the year is the tax payable on the current year’s taxable income based 
on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities 
attributable to temporary difference and to unused tax losses. 

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at 
the end of the reporting year. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect 
to situations in  which  applicable tax regulation is  subject to interpretation.  It establishes provisions  where 
appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. 

Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior years are measured at the amount expected to be 
recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount 
are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the balance date. 

Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance date between the tax bases of 
assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.  

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except when: 

▪  the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a 
transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the 
accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or 

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

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused 
tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against 
which  the  deductible  temporary  differences  and  the  carry-forward  of  unused  tax  credits  and  unused  tax 
losses can be utilised, except when: 

▪  the  deferred  income  tax  asset  relating  to  the  deductible  temporary  difference  arises  from  the  initial 
recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of 
the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or 

▪  the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests 
in joint ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that it is probable that 
the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against 
which the temporary difference can be recognised.

 Odin Metals Limited 

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2019 

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance date and reduced to the extent 
that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred 
income tax asset to be recognised. 

Unrecognised  deferred  income  tax  assets  are  reassessed  at  each  balance  date  and  are  recognised  to  the 
extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. 
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year 
when the asset is recognised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted 
or substantively enacted at the balance date. 

Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss. 

Deferred  tax assets and deferred  tax liabilities are offset only  if a legally  enforceable right exists to set off 
current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same 
taxable entity and the same taxation authority. 

(i)  Other taxes 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST 
incurred is not recoverable from the Government. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the 
cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement 
of financial position are shown inclusive of GST.  

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Government is included as part of receivables or 
payables in the statement of financial position. Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a 
gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which is receivable from or 
payable to the Government, are disclosed as operating cash flows. 

(j)  Impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill 

The Company assesses at each balance date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If 
any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company makes 
an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount.  

An  asset’s  recoverable  amount  is  the  higher  of  its  fair  value  less  costs  to  sell  and  its  value  in  use  and  is 
determined  for  an  individual  asset,  unless  the  asset  does  not  generate  cash  inflows  that  are  largely 
independent  of  those  from  other  assets  or  Company  of  assets  and  the  asset’s  value  in  use  cannot  be 
estimated to be close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash-
generating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds 
its recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its 
recoverable amount. 

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. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories 
consistent with the function of the impaired asset unless the asset is carried at revalued amount (in which 
case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease). 

An  assessment  is  also  made  at  each  balance  date  as  to  whether  there  is  any  indication  that  previously 
recognised  impairment  losses  may  no  longer  exist  or  may  have  decreased.  If  such  indication  exists,  the 
recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been 
a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss 
was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount.

 Odin Metals Limited 

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2019 

That  increased  amount  cannot  exceed  the  carrying  amount  that  would  have  been  determined,  net  of 
depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. 

Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the 
reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future 
years to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its 
remaining useful life. 

(k) Cash and cash equivalents 

Cash comprises cash at bank and in hand. 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. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the statement of financial position. 
For  the  purposes  of  the  statement  of  cash  flows,  cash  and  cash  equivalents  consist  of  cash  and  cash 
equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts. 

(l)  Employee benefits 

A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, long 
service leave, and sick leave when it is probable that settlement will be required and they are capable of being 
measured reliably. 

Liabilities recognised in respect of employee benefits expected to be settled within 12 months, are measured 
at their nominal values using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement.  Liabilities 
recognised  in  respect  of  employee  benefits  which  are  not  expected  to  be  settled  within  12  months  are 
measured as the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made by the Group in respect of 
services provided by employees up to reporting date. 

(m) Trade and other payables 

Trade  payables  and  other  payables  are  carried  at  amortised  cost  and  represent  liabilities  for  goods  and 
services provided to the Company prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the 
Company becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. 

(n) Provisions 

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a 
past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle 
the  obligation  and  a  reliable  estimate  can  be  made  of  the  amount  of  the  obligation.  Provisions  are  not 
recognised for future operating losses. 

When the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance 
contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually 
certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the statement of comprehensive income net of 
any reimbursement. 

Provisions are measured at the present value or management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to 
settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting year. 

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that 
reflects the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the 
passage of time is recognised as an interest expense.

(o) Issued capital 

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or 
options  are  shown  in  equity  as  a  deduction,  net  of  tax,  from  the  proceeds.  Incremental  costs  directly 
attributable to the issue of new shares or options for the acquisition of a new business are not included in the 
cost of acquisition as part of the purchase consideration. 

(p) Property, plant and equipment 

Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Historical cost 
includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. An item of property, plant and 
equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit to the consolidated 
entity. Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are taken to profit or loss. 
Any revaluation surplus reserve relating to the item disposed of is transferred directly to retained profits. 

(q) Current and Non-Current Classification 

Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on  current and non-current 
classification. An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold 
or consumed in the Group's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected 
to  be  realised  within  12  months  after  the  reporting  period;  or  the  asset  is  cash  or  cash  equivalent  unless 
restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. 
All other assets are classified as non-current. 

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

(r) Revenue 

Revenue  is  measured  at  the  fair  value  of  the  consideration  received  or  receivable.  Amounts  disclosed  as 
revenue  are  net  of  returns,  trade  allowances,  rebates  and  amounts  collected  on  behalf  of  third  parties. 
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company 
and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before 
revenue is recognised: 

Interest income 
Interest revenue is recognised on a time proportionate basis that takes into account the effective yield on the 
financial asset. 

(s) Earnings per share 

Basic earnings/loss per share is calculated as net profit/loss attributable to members, 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. 

Diluted earnings per share is calculated as net profit/loss attributable to members, adjusted for: 

▪  costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends;  
▪  the after-tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have 

been recognised as expenses; and 

▪  other  non-discretionary  changes  in  revenues  or  expenses  during  the  year  that  would  result  from  the 

dilution of potential ordinary shares; 

divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted 
for any bonus element.

(t) Share-based payment transactions 

(i)  Equity settled transactions: 

The Company provides benefits to individuals acting as, and providing services similar to employees (including 
Directors)  of  the  Company  in  the  form  of  share-based  payment  transactions,  whereby  individuals  render 
services  in  exchange  for  shares  or  rights  over  shares  (‘equity  settled  transactions’).  There  is  currently  an 
Employee Share Option Plan (ESOP) in place, which provides benefits to  Directors and individuals providing 
services similar to those provided by an employee. 

The cost of these equity settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value at the 
date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using the Black Scholes formula taking into 
account the terms and  conditions upon  which  the instruments were granted, as discussed  in  note  17.  The 
expected price volatility is based on the historic volatility of the Company’s share price on the ASX. 

In  valuing  equity  settled  transactions,  no  account  is  taken  of  any  performance  conditions,  other  than 
conditions linked to the price of the shares of Odin Metals Limited (‘market conditions’).The cost of the equity 
settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the year in which the 
performance  conditions  are  fulfilled,  ending  on  the  date  on  which  the  relevant  employees  become  fully 
entitled to the award (‘vesting date’).The cumulative expense recognised for equity settled transactions at each 
reporting date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting year has expired and (ii) the number 
of  awards that, in  the opinion of the  Directors of the  Company, will ultimately  vest.  This opinion is formed 
based on the best available information at balance date.  

No adjustment is made for the likelihood of the market performance conditions being met as the effect of 
these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date. The statement of comprehensive 
income  charge  or  credit  for  a  year  represents  the  movement  in  cumulative  expense  recognised  at  the 
beginning and end of the year. No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for 
awards where vesting is conditional upon a market condition. Where the terms of an equity settled award are 
modified,  as  a  minimum  an  expense  is  recognised  as  if  the  terms  had  not  been  modified.  In  addition,  an 
expense  is  recognised  for  any  increase  in  the  value  of  the  transaction  as  a  result  of  the  modification,  as 
measured at the date of the modification. 

Where an equity settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of the cancellation, and 
any  expense  not  yet  recognised  for  the  award  is  recognised  immediately.  However  if  a  new  award  is 
substituted for the cancelled award, and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the 
cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the 
previous paragraph. 

The cost of equity-settled transactions with non-employees is measured by reference to the fair value of goods 
and services received unless this cannot be measured reliably, in which case the cost is measured by reference 
to the fair value of the equity instruments granted. The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected 
in the computation of loss per share (note 15). 

(ii) Cash settled transactions: 

The  Company  may  also  provide  benefits  to  employees  in  the  form  of  cash-settled  share-based  payments, 
whereby employees render services in exchange for cash, the amounts of which are determined by reference 
to movements in the price of the shares of the Company. The cost of cash-settled transactions is measured 
initially  at  fair  value  at  the  grant  date  using  the  Black-Scholes  formula  taking  into  account  the  terms  and 
conditions upon which the instruments were granted. This fair value is expensed over the year until vesting 
with recognition of a corresponding liability. The liability is remeasured to fair value at each balance date up 
to and including the settlement date with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.

(u) Critical accounting estimates and judgements 

The  application  of  accounting  policies  requires  the  use  of  judgements,  estimates  and  assumptions  about 
carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and 
associated  assumptions  are  based  on  historical  experience  and  other  factors  that  are  considered  to  be 
relevant.  Actual  results  may  differ  from  these  estimates.  The  estimates  and  underlying  assumptions  are 
reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions are recognised in the year in which the estimate is revised if it affects 
only that year, or in the year of the revision and future years if the revision affects both current and future 
years. 

Share-based payment transactions: 
The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions and cash-settled share-based payments with 
employees and third parties by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they 
are granted. The fair value at the grant date is determined using the Black and Scholes option pricing model 
taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted and the assumptions 
detailed in note 17.  

Acquisition of Evandale Minerals Pty Ltd  
Key  estimates  and  judgments  are  applied  in  the  acquisition  accounting  including  determining  the  type  of 
acquisition, the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired and the fair value of the consideration paid. The 
acquisition was determined by the directors to be an asset acquisition as detailed in note 7. 

Deferred Exploration and evaluation Expenditure 
Deferred  exploration  and  evaluation  expenditure  has  been  capitalised  on  the  basis  that  the  company  will 
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 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.  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  year  in 
which this determination is made. 

(v) New standards and interpretations not yet adopted 

The Group has adopted all of the new, revised or amending Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued 
by the Australian Accounting Standards Board that are mandatory for the current reporting period. Any new, 
revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early 
adopted.  The  Group's  assessment  of  the  impact  of  these  new  or  amended  Accounting  Standards  and 
Interpretations, most relevant to the Group, are set out below.  

AASB 16 Leases  
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The standard 
replaces AASB 117 'Leases' and for lessees will eliminate the classifications of operating leases and finance 
leases. Subject to exceptions, a 'right-of-use' asset will be capitalised in the statement of financial position, 
measured at the present value of the unavoidable future lease payments to be made over the lease term. The 
exceptions relate to short-term leases of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets (such as personal 
computers and small office furniture) where an accounting policy choice exists whereby either a 'right-of-use' 
asset is recognised or lease payments are expensed to profit or loss as incurred.

2019 Annual Report to Shareholders 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Odin Metals Limited 

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2019 

A liability corresponding to the capitalised lease will also be recognised, adjusted for lease prepayments, lease 
incentives  received,  initial  direct  costs  incurred  and  an  estimate  of  any  future  restoration,  removal  or 
dismantling  costs.  Straight-line  operating  lease  expense  recognition  will  be  replaced  with  a  depreciation 
charge  for  the  leased  asset  (included  in  operating  costs)  and  an  interest  expense  on  the  recognised  lease 
liability (included in finance costs). In the earlier periods of the lease, the expenses associated with the lease 
under AASB 16 will be higher when compared to lease expenses under AASB 117.  

However EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation) results will be improved as 
the operating expense is replaced by interest expense and depreciation in profit or loss under AASB 16. For 
classification within the statement of cash flows, the lease payments will be separated into both a principal 
(financing activities) and interest (either operating or financing activities) component. For lessor accounting, 
the standard does not substantially change how a lessor accounts for leases.  

The impact of the new leases standard  is that leased  asset will be capitalised  in  the statement of financial 
position, measured as the present value of the unavoidable future lease payments to be made over the lease 
term  and  a  liability  corresponding  to  the  capitalised  lease  will  also  be  recognised,  adjusted  for  lease 
prepayments, lease incentives received, initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of any future restoration, 
removal or dismantling costs. The Group will adopt this standard from 1 July 2019, however as the Company 
does not have any current leases that would qualify under this policy, it is not expected to have any financial 
impact on the entity.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2019 

1 The Company issued 50,000,000 unlisted options exercisable at $0.40 pursuant to the terms of an Earn-in 
Option Agreement signed with Glencore Canada Corporation to consolidate the highly prospective Sturgeon 
Lake Base Metals District on the historical Mattabi Zinc-Copper Trend, Ontario, Canada. Refer to note 17 (d). 

2  At  30  June  2019  the  deferred  exploration  and  evaluation  balance  included  approximately  $2,003,749  of 
Project expenditures under an Earn-in Option Agreement to acquire a 50% interest in the Glencore Sturgeon 
Lake Properties. 

3 The deferred exploration and evaluation balance includes an amount of $2,354,968 being the identifiable 

exploration assets acquired upon the acquisition of Evandale Mineral’s Canadian projects, refer below:

(29,882)

During the prior year, the Group acquired a number of tenements in  Canada. These acquisitions did not 
constitute  a  business  combination  and  the cost  of the acquisitions have been  allocated  to the individual 
identifiable  assets  and  liabilities  on  the  basis  of  their  respective  fair  values.  The  ultimate  recoupment  of 
costs  carried  forward  for  exploration  expenditure  is  dependent  on  the  successful  development  and 
commercial exploitation or sale of the respective mining areas. 

4  Following  the  acquisition  of  Evandale  Minerals,  the  Company’s  focus  shifted  away  from  the  existing 
Australian  assets  and  on  to  its  flagship  Sturgeon  Lake  Project  in  Ontario,  Canada.  As  a  result  of  this  the 
Board has assessed the fair value of the Australian assets to be nil at the end of the year. An amount of 
$681,683  relating  to  previously  capitalised  exploration  expenditure  was  impaired  and  exploration 
expenditure of $9,598 which was incurred during the year was also written off.

There is no impact from 62,400,000 options outstanding at 30 June 2019 on the earnings per share calculation 
because they are anti-dilutive. These options could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future.  There have been 
no  transactions  involving  ordinary  shares  or  potential  ordinary  shares  that  would  significantly  change  the 
number of ordinary shares or potential ordinary shares outstanding between the reporting date and the date 
of completion of these financial statements. 

16.  Financial risk management 

Exposure to foreign currency risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk arises in the normal course of 
the Company’s business. The Company uses different methods as discussed below to manage risks that arise 
from  these  financial  instruments.  The  objective  is  to  support  the  delivery  of  the  financial  targets  while 
protecting future financial security. 

(a) Liquidity risk 

Liquidity  risk  is  the  risk  that  the  Company  will  encounter  difficulty  in  meeting  obligations  associated  with 
financial liabilities. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash facilities to meet the 
operating requirements of the business and investing excess funds in highly liquid short-term investments. 
The responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2019 

Alternatives  for  sourcing  our  future  capital  needs  include  our  cash  position  and  the  issue  of  equity 
instruments.  These  alternatives  are  evaluated  to  determine  the  optimal  mix  of  capital  resources  for  our 
capital  needs.  The  Directors  expect  that  present  levels  of  liquidity  along  with  future  capital  raising  will  be 
adequate to meet expected capital needs. 

(b) Interest rate risk 

Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that changes in interest rates will affect future cash flows or the 
fair value of financial instruments. The Company’s exposure to market risk for changes to interest rate risk 
relates primarily to its earnings on cash and term deposits. The  Company manages the risk by investing in 
short term deposits.

Interest rate sensitivity

comprehensive income to a reasonably possible change in interest rates, with all other variables constant.

A sensitivity of 75 basis points has been used as this is considered reasonable given the current level of both 
short term and long-term Australian Dollar interest rates. The change in basis points is derived from a review 
of historical movements and management’s judgement of future trends.  

 (c) Credit risk exposures 

Credit  risk  represents  the  risk  that  the  counterparty  to  the  financial  instrument  will  fail  to  discharge  an 
obligation and cause the Company to incur a financial loss. The Company’s maximum credit exposure is the 
carrying amounts on the statement of financial position. The Company holds financial instruments with credit 
worthy third parties. At 30 June 2019, the Company held cash at bank.100% of the Company’s cash was held 
in financial institutions with a rating from Standard & Poors of AA or above (long term). The Company has no 
past due or impaired debtors as at 30 June 2019. 

17.  Share-based payments  

(a) Recognised share-based payment transactions 

Share-based payment transactions recognised either as operational expenses in the statement of profit or 
loss and other comprehensive income or as capital raising costs in the equity during the year were as follows:

(b) Employee and Director share-based payments 

The  Company  issues  options  to  assist  in  the  recruitment,  reward,  retention  and  motivation  of  directors, 
employees  and  consultants  of  Odin  Metals  Limited.  An  individual  may  receive  the  options  or  nominate  a 
relative or associate to receive the options. 

The fair value at grant date of options granted during the reporting year was determined using a combination 
of the Parisian barrier and share price barrier option pricing models that take into account the exercise price, 
the term of the option, the share price at grant date, the expected price volatility of the underlying share, the 
risk-free interest rate for the term of the option and the market performance condition.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 
TO THE MEMBERS OF 
ODIN METALS LIMITED 

Opinion 

We have audited the financial report of Odin Metals Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group), which 
comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2019, the consolidated statement of profit 
or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated 
statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of 
significant accounting policies, and the directors' declaration.  

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

(i)  giving  a  true  and  fair  view  of  the  Group's  financial  position  as  at  30  June  2019  and  of  its  financial 

performance for the year then ended; and 

(ii)  complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.  

Basis for Opinion 

We  conducted  our  audit  in  accordance  with  Australian  Auditing  Standards.  Our  responsibilities  under  those 
standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of 
our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the 
Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board's 
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial 
report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.  

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to 
the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor's 
report. 

We  believe  that  the  audit  evidence  we  have  obtained  is  sufficient  and  appropriate  to  provide  a  basis  for  our 
opinion. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Key Audit Matters 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of 
the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial 
report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. 

Key Audit Matter 

How our audit addressed this matter 

Carrying value of Deferred Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure 

Refer to Note 7 in the financial statements 

The  Group  has  capitalised  exploration  and 
evaluation  expenditure,  with  a  carrying  value  of 
$5,721,107 as at 30 June 2019.  

We considered this to be a key audit matter due to 
the  significant  management  judgments  involved  in 
assessing the carrying value of the assets including:  

•  Determination  of  whether  the  exploration  and 
evaluation  expenditure  can  be  associated  with 
finding specific mineral resources, and the basis 
on which that expenditure is allocated to an area 
of interest;  

•  Assessing whether any indicators of impairment 

are present; and 

•  Determination  of  whether  exploration  activities 
have reached a stage at which the existence of 
an  economically  recoverable  reserves  may  be 
determined.  

Valuation of Share Based Payments 

Refer to note 17 in the financial statements 
The Group has share based payments of $795,116, 
including  $550,000 
to  Deferred 
Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure. 

capitalised 

We considered the valuation of these options to be 
a  key  audit  matter  as  it  involved  management’s 
judgement in determining the various inputs used in 
the option pricing models. 

Our  audit  procedures  in  relation  to  the  carrying  value  of 
exploration and evaluation expenditure asset included:  

•  Obtaining evidence that the right to tenure of the area 

of interest is current; 

•  Agreeing  a  sample  of  additions 

to  supporting 
documentation and ensuring the amounts are capital in 
nature and relate to the area of interest; 

•  Enquiring with and assessing management’s basis on 
which  they  have  determined  that  the  exploration  and 
evaluation  of  mineral  resources  has  not  yet  reached 
the  stage  where 
that  no 
commercially  viable  quantities  of  mineral  resources 
exists; 

it  can  be  concluded 

•  Assessing and evaluating management’s assessment 
that no indicators of impairment existed at the reporting 
date; 

•  Enquiring  with  management  and  reviewing  budgets 
and plans to test that the Group will incur substantive 
expenditure on further exploration for and evaluation of 
mineral resources in the specific area; and 

•  Reviewing  the minutes of  Board  of Director meetings 
and ASX announcements to ensure that the Group had 
not  resolved  to  discontinue  activities  in  the  specific 
area.  

Our audit procedures included: 

•  Challenging the reasonableness of key 

assumptions used by management relative to 
the valuations at grant date; 

•  Checking the mathematical accuracy of the 

computation; 

•  Reviewing the minutes of Board of Director 

meetings and ASX announcements in relation to 
the granting of the options; and 

•  Reviewing the adequacy and accuracy of the 

relevant disclosures in the financial statements. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Other Information  

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included 
in the Group's annual report for the year ended 30 June 2019 but does not include the financial report and the 
auditor's report thereon.  

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any 
form of assurance conclusion thereon.  

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing 
so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge 
obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  

If,  based  on  the  work  we  have  performed,  we  conclude  that  there  is  a  material  misstatement  of  this  other 
information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.  

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report 

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

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as 
a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of 
accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic 
alternative but to do so.  

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report 

Our  objectives  are  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the  financial  report  as  a  whole  is  free  from 
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. 
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance 
with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements 
can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably 
be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.  

A  further  description  of  our  responsibilities  for  the  audit  of  the  financial  report  is  located  at  the  Auditing  and 
Assurance  Standards  Board  website  at:  www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar2.pdf.  This  description
