Okapi Resources Limited 
Chairman’s Letter 

Dear Shareholders, 

It is with pleasure that I present to you the 2018 Annual Report for Okapi Resources Limited (Okapi or the Company). 
The 2017-2018 financial year has been the first full year of Okapi’s exploration activities. 

The Company was successfully admitted as a listing entity on the ASX on 28 September 2017, after completing an over-
subscribed IPO to raise $5 million. During the year the opportunity arose to make a further strategic placement and in 
February 2018, a further $1.5 million raising was completed at an issue price of 70 cents. 

Okapi is a mineral resource company with a clear strategy of advancing our current projects by value adding via staged 
cost-effective field programs. We are pleased that the work undertaken to date has provided results that warrant further 
investigation and we are excited about commencing follow up work programs. As well as adding value to existing assets 
your Board has sought to be aggressively active in the identification of acquisition opportunities for mineral assets to 
complement our existing project portfolio.  

I would also like to thank my fellow Board members, management and our key consultants for their efforts over the past 
year. We look forward to keeping you updated on all we are doing in pursuit of opportunities with scale and ultimately 
minerals discovery.  

Finally, I take this opportunity to thank our loyal shareholders and thank you all for your ongoing support. 

Klaus Eckhof 
Chairman

Review of Operations 

Okapi Commences Activity 

On 28 September 2017, the Company was officially admitted to the ASX after completion of a heavily over-subscribed 
Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) which raised $5 million before costs. 

The  Company  quickly  commenced  exploration  activities  at  both  its  Mambasa  Project  in  the  Democratic  Republic  of 
Congo (“DRC”) and its Crackerjack Project in Western Australia, with both projects returning results of interest which 
will require follow up work programs.  

On 25th January 2018, OKR announced that it had entered into an option agreement over 3 licences prospective for copper 
and cobalt mineralisation, held by Rubamin in the DRC. Subsequent to the agreement, technical due diligence work was 
completed during the year over these licences, known as the Katanga Copper-Cobalt Project. Technical work consisted 
of desktop studies, review of Rubamin data from previous work campaigns and field inspections of the licences. 

Mambasa Gold Project (opportunity to earn a 70% equity interest) 

The Mambasa Project consists of 2 licences, PE364 and PE480, and is the site of several historic colonial gold workings 
and also current artisanal gold production. Artisanal activities cover an approximate 600 metre strike length and some 
workings are up to 25 metres deep. The Project is located approximately 18km south of the village of Mambasa, in the 
DRC.  The  Mambasa  Project  is  located  within  the  Ngayu  Greenstone  Belt  hosting  Loncor’s  Adumbi  and  Makapela 
projects. Greenstones of the region are  the  geological  host  for  many  gold  deposits of significant size  as is showed in 
Figure 1 below.  

Figure 1: Regional Locality Map - Mambasa Gold Project Showing Nearby Significant Gold Projects 

In November 2017 the Company commenced field exploration work on its Mambasa Project. This work consisted of a 2-
stage  soil  sampling  program  with  over  1400  samples  collected  from  PE364.  All  samples  were  shipped  to  ALS 
Laboratories in Johannesburg for multielement analysis. 

The  first stage  soil sampling  program  consisted of 997 soil samples  being  taken  from  selected portions of the  PE364 
licence area on an approximate 250m by 100m soil sample grid. The results from this program returned gold-in-soil assays 
up to 0.93 g/t Au and anomalous gold results identifying a +3,000 metre NW trend (Figure 3).  

P a g e  | 4 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This trend is considered very encouraging, with a similar trend hosting several of the more significant gold projects in the 
region, including Kibali and Geita (Figure 1). A similar NW fabric can be seen in satellite imagery (Figure 2), and this 
lineation is currently interpreted as the same structural trend that is considered a key control in deposits within the Ngayu 
Greenstone  Belt.  A  further north south trend seemed evident in the  first round results  which requires  further  work to 
determine its importance.

Review of Operations 

Figure 2: Landsat Imagery with Interpreted Structural Trend 

A follow-up infill sampling program was completed in the June 2018 quarter. This program was designed to target areas 
of  interest  defined  in  the  initial  soil  sampling  program.  This  second  stage  of  sampling  infilled  previous  lines  at  an 
approximate 125 metre line spacing and at 50 metre centres, with some 500 samples taken and analysed. Results of up to 
0.31 g/t Au were achieved from this program. The results continued to define both a NW and NS trend as identified in 
the  initial  sampling  program  (Figure  3).  The  confluence  of  these  2  orientations  is  of  particular  interest  as  it  possibly 
defines a control on gold mineralisation within the project area. This observation is supported by the fact that Mount Pede, 
an area of significant artisanal mining activity, is located at this juncture.

The cost associated with the exploration program at the Mambasa Project this financial year has meant that the Company 
has met its’ Year 1 expenditure commitments as per the earn-in agreement. Further follow up work is being planned at 
Mambasa for next financial year.

Crackerjack Gold Project (owned 100%) 

On 27 September 2017, the Company acquired all of the issued shares in Panex Resources WA Pty Ltd, the 100% holder 
of exploration licence E 80/4675 

The  Crackerjack  Project  is  a  sole  tenement  located  approximately  85  kilometres  south-west  of  Halls  Creek  in  the 
Kimberley District of Western Australia. It is within the Kimberley Goldfield’s region, approximately 3.5 km south of 
the historical Mount Dockrell Mine. The Mount Dockrell area has been worked for alluvial gold and hard rock gold for 
decades with significant amounts of gold being won (Figure 4). Crackerjack has also been interpreted to sit within the 
same litho-structural setting that hosts numerous historical gold mines in the field. 

Figure 4: Location Map of the Crackerjack Project 

The Company’s initial exploration activities focused upon  several known  historical high-grade gold drill intersections 
that exist within the boundaries of this tenement.  

The  Company  commenced  its  initial  exploration  program  with  a  field  mapping  program  focussing  around  historic 
workings. During the mapping program some drill hole collars from historic RC drilling were identified and subsequently 
surveyed with a hand-held GPS, this data will later permit the modelling of the holes from this drill campaign (Maldon 
Minerals 1989).  

A total of 124 rock samples were taken and assayed as part of the initial mapping program. The best assay results being:  
• 
• 
• 
• 

‘Irish Lass’ - 2.83 g/t Au, 0.98 g/t Au and 0.68 g/t Au, 
‘Crackerjack’ - 10.58 g/t Au, 2.74 g/t Au, 1.82 g/t Au and 0.86 g/t Au, 
‘The Sisters’ - 5.32 g/t Au and 3.10 g/t Au, and 
‘The Twins’ - 18.29 g/t Au and 9.66 g/t Au. 

In addition to the above, anomalous gold results from 0.5 to 0.8 g/t were obtained from rock chip samples gathered in 
previously unknown areas. These areas ‘Nicola’ and ‘Louise’ are shown in Figure 5.

Okapi Resources Limited 
Review of Operations 

Figure 5: Crackerjack Project Prospect Location Map 

Given that significant weathering in the Kimberley region tends to actively leach gold from the near-surface environment, 
these returned gold results are very encouraging given they are surface samples. Extensive strike lengths of copper and 
lead-rich horizons were also observed and sampled, but these base metal zones are relatively thin and economic potential 
of base metals remains subject to review, they do however provide a strong indicator of mineralisation activity related to 
observed carbonate-rich horizons and understanding their formation is expected to assist with the targeting of gold on the 
Project. 

Drainage samples were also comprehensively collected from above creek junctions, so as to be representative of relatively 
small drainage areas, during the field program. A total of 72 stream sediment samples underwent a cyanide leach bottle 
roll procedure and were assayed for gold and a suite of indicator elements. 

The results from the stream sediment sampling program ranged from 95 ppb to 1,290 ppb Au and confirmed both areas 
of known gold mineralisation, as well as identifying three new areas of unexpected gold anomalies. Follow up work is 
planned to commence in the second half of 2018 at Crackerjack.

Katanga Copper Cobalt Project (opportunity to earn a 70% equity interest) 

On 25 January 2018 Okapi executed an Option Agreement with local vendor, Rubamin FZC to earn up to a 70% equity 
right in up to three mineral exploration licences located in the Democratic Republic of Congo (Figure 6). Rubamin is the 
current 100% owner of Research Permits: 

•  PR4981 – the “Luisha Project” covering an area of approximately 48km2; 
•  PR5468 - the “Tenke Project" covering and area of approximately 151km2; and 
•  PR13380 - the “Ntondo Project”, covering an area of approximately of 48km2 

The Option Agreement granted Okapi rights to invest in the respective licences by satisfying obligations to sole fund 
exploration and earn an equity interest within  the projects. Subject to meeting the exploration earn in obligations and 
delivering a pre-feasibility study, Okapi has the opportunity to earn up to 70% in each of the licences that constitute the 
Project.  

The Company commenced full technical and legal due diligence on the licences in the March Quarter 2018. The projects 
are well located within the southern Congo Copper-belt with proximity to known deposits and stratigraphy favourable to 
both copper and cobalt mineralization (Figure 6).  

Technical due diligence work on the Luisha Project included the review of Rubamin’s dataset from their previous work 
and a brief site visit to validate some of the results contained within the dataset. However, work on the Tenke and Ntondo 
Projects at the conclusion of the reporting period had been limited due to access issues resulting from the monsoonal wet 
season. At both Tenke and Ntondo access permitted only a brief visit to both these sites with the area inspected being a 
limited proportion of the projects. Five rock chip samples were taken from and artisanal site just outside the Tenke licence 
and are shown in Table 1 below.

Directors’ Report 
For the year ended 30 June 2018 

Audited Remuneration Report 

This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for all key management personnel of Okapi Resources 
Limited and its subsidiaries. The information provided in this remuneration report has been audited as required by 
section 308(C) of the Corporations Act 2001.  For the purposes of this report, key management personnel of the 
Group are defined as those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the 
major activities of the Group and the Company, directly or indirectly, including any Director (whether executive 
or otherwise) of the Group.  

The individuals included in this report are: 

Klaus Eckhof  
Nigel Ferguson 
Leonard Math 
Raymond (Jinyu) Liu 
Craig Nelmes  

Non-Executive Chairman 
Managing Director 
Non-Executive Director

(a)  Remuneration Policy 

Resigned – 28 November 2017 
Appointed - 25 October 2017 

The  remuneration  policy  of  Okapi  Resources  Limited  has  been  designed  to  align  director  objectives  with 
shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component which is assessed on an annual 
basis in line with market rates.  By providing components of remuneration that are indirectly linked to share price 
appreciation (in the form of options and/or performance rights), executive, business and shareholder objectives are 
aligned. The board of Okapi Resources Limited believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective 
in its ability to attract and retain the best directors to run and manage the Group, as well as create goal congruence 
between directors and shareholders. The board’s policy for determining the  nature and amount of remuneration 
for board members is as follows: 

(i)  Executive Directors & Other Key Management Personnel 

The  remuneration  policy  and  the  relevant  terms  and  conditions  has  been  developed  by  the  full  Board  of 
Directors as the Group does not have a Remuneration Committee due to the size of the Group and the Board. 
In  determining  competitive  remuneration  rates,  the  Board  reviews  local  and  international  trends  among 
comparative  companies  and  industry  generally.  It  examines  terms  and  conditions  for  employee  incentive 
schemes, benefit plans and share plans. Reviews are performed to confirm that executive remuneration is in 
line with market practice and is reasonable in the context of Australian executive reward practices.   

The  Group  is  an  exploration  entity,  and  therefore  speculative  in  terms  of  performance.  Consistent  with 
attracting and retaining talented executives, directors and senior executives are paid market rates associated 
with individuals in similar positions, within the same industry. 

Mr.  Ferguson  was  appointed  Managing  Director  on  29  May  2017  and  receives  an  annual  remuneration 
package  of  $167,250  through  an  Executive  Services  Agreement.  Mr  Ferguson  provides  his  services  as 
Managing  Director  through  Ridgeback  Holdings  Pty  Ltd  as  trustee  for  the  Ferguson  Family  Trust.    Mr 
Ferguson’s employment may be terminated by the Group giving 6 months’ notice. The Group may otherwise 
terminate  his employment immediately for cause. There  are no other service  or consulting agreements  in 
place with key management personnel. At this stage due to the size of the Group, no remuneration consultants 
have been used. The Board’s remuneration policies are outlined below:

Okapi Resources Limited 
Directors’ Report 
For the year ended 30 June 2018 

Fixed Remuneration 

All executives receive a base cash salary which is based on factors such as length of service and experience 
as  well  as  other  fringe  benefits.    If  entitled,  all  executives  also  receive  a  superannuation  guarantee 
contribution required by the government, which is currently 9.50% and do not receive any other retirement 
benefits. 

Short-term Incentives (STI) 

Under  the  Group’s  current  remuneration  policy,  executives  can  from  time  to  time  receive  short-term 
incentives in the form of cash bonuses. No short term incentives were paid in the current financial year. 
The  Board  is  currently  determining  the  criteria  of  eligibility  for  short-term  incentives  and  will  set  key 
performance indicators to appropriately align shareholder wealth and executive remuneration. 

Long-term Incentives (LTI) 

Executives are encouraged by the Board to hold shares in the Group and it is therefore the Group’s objective 
to  provide  incentives  for  participants  to  partake  in  the  future  growth  of  the  Group  and, upon  becoming 
shareholders in the Group, to participate in the Group’s profits and dividends that may be realised in future 
years.  The  Board  considers  that  this  equity  performance  linked  remuneration  structure  is  effective  in 
aligning the long-term interests of Group executives and shareholders as there exists a direct correlation 
between shareholder wealth and executive remuneration. 

(ii)  Non-Executive Directors 

The board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for comparable companies for 
time, commitment and responsibilities.  In determining competitive remuneration rates, the Board review 
local and international trends among comparative companies and the industry  generally.  Typically, the 
Group will compare non-executive remuneration to companies with similar market capitalisations in the 
exploration and resource development sector. 

(b)  Group Performance, Shareholder Wealth and Directors’ and Executives’ Remuneration 

No relationship exists between the  Group performance, earnings, shareholder wealth and Directors’ and 
Executive remuneration for this financial period. With the exception of the Managing Director, no executive 
is receiving any base remuneration. No remuneration is currently performance related.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

(a)  General information 

Okapi Resources Limited 
Notes to the Financial Statements 
For the year ended 30 June 2018 

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. These 
policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated. The financial statements are for Okapi Resources 
Limited and its controlled entity. 

The financial statements are presented in the Australian currency. 

Okapi Resources Limited is a Company limited by shares, domiciled and incorporated in Australia. The financial 
statements were authorised for issue by the directors on 27 September 2018. The directors have the power to amend 
and reissue the financial statements. 

(b)  Basis of preparation 

These  general  purpose  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  Australian  Accounting 
Standards  and  Interpretations  issued  by  the  Australian  Accounting  Standards  Board  and  the  Corporations  Act 
2001. Okapi Resources Limited is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements. 

Comparatives 

The Company was incorporated on 29 May 2017, and as such the comparatives cover the period 29 May 2017 to 
30 June 2017. 

Historical cost convention 

These financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis under the historical cost convention. Cost is 
based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian 
dollars, unless otherwise noted. 

New standards and interpretations adopted in the 2018 financial year 

Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet 
mandatory, have not been early adopted by the Group for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2018. The 
consolidated entity’s assessment of the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and 
Interpretations, most relevant to the consolidated entity, are set out below: 

AASB  9  Financial  Instruments  and  associated  Amending  Standards  (applicable  for  annual  reporting  period 
commencing 1 January 2018) 

AASB 9 addresses the classification, measurement and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities 
and  introduces  new  rules  for  hedge  accounting.   In  December  2014,  the  AASB  made  further  changes  to 
classification and measurement rules and also introduced a new impairment model.  These latest amendments now 
complete the new financial instruments standard. 

Following the changes approved by the AASB in December 2014, the Group no longer expects any impact from 
the  new  classification,  measurement  and  derecognition  rules  on  the  Group’s  financial  assets  and  financial 
liabilities. While the Group has yet to undertake a detailed assessment of the financial instruments classified as 
available-for-sale  financial  assets,  it  would  appear  that  they  would  satisfy  the  conditions  for  classification  as 
available for sale and hence there will be no change to the accounting for these assets. 

The new hedging rules would not impact the Group as the Group does not have any hedging arrangements. The 
new impairment model is an expected credit loss model which may result in the earlier recognition of credit losses. 
The Group has not yet assessed how its own impairment provisions would be affected by the new rules.

Okapi Resources Limited 
Notes to the Financial Statements 
For the year ended 30 June 2018 

New standards and interpretations not yet adopted (Continued) 

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (applicable for annual reporting period commencing 1 January 
2018) 

The AASB has issued a new standard for the recognition of revenue.  This will replace AASB 118 which covers 
contracts for good and services and AASB 111 which covers construction contracts. The new standard is based 
on the  principle that revenue is recognised  when control of a  good or service  transfers to a customer  – so the 
notion of control replaces the existing notion of risks and rewards.  The standard permits a modified retrospective 
approach  for  the  adoption.   Under  this  approach  entities  will  recognise  transitional  adjustments  in  retained 
earnings on the date of initial recognition without restating the comparative period.  They will only need to apply 
the new rules to contracts that are not completed as of the date of initial application. 

This is unlikely to impact the Group as the Group does not have any revenue from contracts with customers at 
this stage. 

AASB 16: Leases applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 

This Standard supersedes AASB 117 Leases, Interpretation 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a 
Lease, IC-15 Operating Leases-Incentives and SIC-27 Evaluating the Substance of Transactions Involving the 
Legal Form of lease. 

Early  application  of  the  Standard  is  permitted  provided  the  new  revenue  standard,  AASB  15  Revenue  from 
Contracts with Customers, has been applied or is applied at the same date as AASB 16. The key features of AASB 
16 are as follows: 

(i)  Leases are required to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless 

the underlying asset is of low value. 

(ii)  A lessee measures right-of-use assets similarly to other non-financial assets and lease liabilities similarly to 

other financial liabilities. 

(iii) Assets and Liabilities arising from the lease are initially measured on a present value basis. The measurement 
includes non-cancellable lease payments (including inflation-linked payments), and also includes payments 
to be mad in optional periods if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend to lease, or not 
to exercise an option to terminate the lease. 

(iv) AASB 16 contains disclosure requirements for leases. 

Lessor accounting 
(i)  AASB  16  substantially  carries  forward  the  lessor  accounting  requirements  in  AASB  117.  Accordingly,  a 
lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases, and to account for those two types 
of leases differently. 

(ii)  AASB  16  also  requires  enhanced  disclosures  to  be  provided  by  lessors  that  will  improve  information 

disclosed about a lessor’s risk exposure, particularly to residual value risk. 

When  this  standard  is  first  adopted  for  the  year  ending  30 June  2020,  there  will  be  no material  impact  on  the 
transactions and balances recognised in the financial statements. 

(c)  Principals of consolidation 

(i)  Subsidiaries 

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Okapi Resources 
Limited (“Company” or “Parent Entity”) as at 30 June 2018 and the results of all subsidiaries for the period. 
Okapi Resources Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in this financial report as the Group or the 
consolidated entity. 

Subsidiaries are entities the parent controls when it 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 over the entity.

Okapi Resources Limited 
Notes to the Financial Statements 
For the year ended 30 June 2018 

(i)  Subsidiaries (continued) 

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group and are de-
consolidated from the date that control ceases. 

The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the Group. 
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are 
eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of 
the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure 
consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. 

Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated 
statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of financial position 
respectively. 

(ii)  Changes in ownership interests 

The Group treats transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss of control as 
transactions with equity owners of the Group. A change in ownership interest results in an adjustment between 
the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests to reflect their relative interests in the 
subsidiary. Any difference between the amount of the adjustment to non-controlling interests and any 
consideration paid or received is recognised in a separate reserve within equity attributable to owners of Okapi 
Resources Limited. 

When the Group ceases to have control, joint control or significant influence, any retained interest in the entity 
is remeasured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. The fair value is 
the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, 
jointly controlled entity or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other 
comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the 
related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income 
are reclassified to profit or loss. 

If the ownership interest in a jointly controlled entity or associate is reduced but joint control or significant 
influence is retained, only a proportionate share of the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive 
income are reclassified to profit or loss where appropriate. 

These accounting policies are consistent with Australian Accounting Standards and with International Financial 
Reporting Standards. 

(d)  Income tax 

The income tax expense or revenue for the period is the tax payable on the current period’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 differences and to unused tax losses. 

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end 
of the reporting period in the countries where the Group’s subsidiaries and associates operate and generate taxable 
income.  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. 

Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the 
tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, 
the  deferred  income  tax  is  not  accounted  for  if  it  arises  from  initial  recognition  of  an  asset  or  liability  in  a 
transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects  neither accounting nor 
taxable  profit  or  loss.  Deferred  income  tax  is  determined  using  tax  rates  (and  laws)  that  have  been  enacted  or 
substantially enacted by the reporting date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is 
realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

(d)  Income tax (continued) 

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable 
that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. 

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and 
tax bases of investments in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal 
of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets 
and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax 
liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net 
basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 

Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in 
other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive 
income or directly in equity, respectively. 

(e) 

Exploration, evaluation and development 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: 

(i) 

(ii) 

the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and 

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

Exploration and evaluation assets are 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. 

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.

(f)  Revenue 

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the  Group and the 
revenue can be reliably measured.   

(g)  Cash and cash equivalents 

Cash reserves in the statement of financial position comprise cash on hand. 

(h)  Trade and other receivables 

Receivables are recognised and carried at original invoice amount less a provision for any uncollectible debts. An 
estimate for doubtful debts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written-
off as incurred. 

(i)  Goods and services tax (GST) 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not 
recoverable from the taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the net asset 
or part of the expense. 

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST 
recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included with other receivables or payables in the balance 
sheet. 

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST component of cash flows arising from investing or financing 
activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority, are presented as operating cash flows. 

(j)  Trade and other payables 

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

(k)  Contributed equity 

Ordinary shares and options are classified as contributed 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. 

Significant accounting judgements and key estimates 

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions 
that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and 
estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. 

Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various 
factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. 

Exploration expenditure 

Exploration and evaluation costs are assessed on the basis of whether or not it is appropriate to carry as a Deferred 
exploration asset – refer to (e) above.

2. 

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT 

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and 
price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of 
financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group. 

Risk management is carried out by the full Board of Directors as the Group believes that it is crucial for all Board members 
to be  involved in this process. The  Board,  with the  assistance of senior  management as  required, has responsibility for 
identifying, assessing, treating and monitoring risks and reporting to the Board on risk management. 

(a) Market risk 

(i) Foreign exchange risk 

The Group has minimal operations internationally and there are currently limited exposures to foreign exchange risk arising 
from currency exposures. 

Foreign exchange risk arises from future  commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a 
currency that is not the entity’s functional currency and net investments in foreign operations. The Group has not formalised 
a foreign currency risk management policy, however it monitors its foreign currency expenditure in light of exchange rate 
movements. 

 (ii) Price risk 

Given the current level of operations, the Group is not exposed to price risk. 

(iii) Interest rate risk 

The Group is exposed to movements in market interest rates on cash and cash equivalents.  

The  proportional  mix  of  floating  interest  rates  and  fixed  rates  to  a  maximum  of  six  months  fluctuate  during  the  year 
depending  on  current  working  capital  requirements.  The  weighted  average  interest  rate  received  on  cash  and  cash 
equivalents by the Group was 1.1%. (2017: 0%). 

(b) Credit risk 

The maximum exposure to credit risk at reporting date is the carrying amount (net of provision for impairment) of those 
assets  as  disclosed  in  the  statement  of  financial  position  and  notes  to  the  financial  statements.  The  only  significant 
concentration of credit risk for the Group is the cash and cash equivalents held with financial institutions. All bank deposits 
are held with the major Australian banks for which the Board evaluate credit risk to be minimal. 

As the Group does not presently have any trade debtors, lending, significant stock levels or any other credit risk, a formal 
credit risk management policy is not maintained. 

(c) Liquidity risk 

The Group manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and ensuring sufficient cash 
and marketable securities are available to meet the current and future commitments of the Group. Due to the nature of the 
Group’s activities, being mineral exploration, the Group does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the primary 
source of funding being equity raisings. The Board of Directors constantly monitor the state of equity markets in conjunction 
with the Group’s current and future funding requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required. 

The financial liabilities of the Group are confined to trade and other payables as disclosed in the Statement of financial 
position. All trade and other payables are non-interest bearing and due within 12 months of the reporting date. 

(d) Fair value estimation 

The  fair  value  of  financial  assets  and  financial  liabilities  must  be  estimated  for  recognition  and  measurement  or  for 
disclosure purposes. All financial assets and financial liabilities of the Group at the balance date are recorded at amounts 
approximating their carrying amount. 

The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values 
due to their short-term nature.

10.  ISSUED CAPITAL (CONTINUED) 

(d) Performance rights – Vesting Conditions 

The Performance Rights shall vest upon satisfaction of the following milestones: 

Class A - the Company achieving and maintaining a market capitalisation of $12m or more for a continuous 
period of 30 days on or before 31 December 2021, and the vesting condition was met on 14 December 2017. No 
exercise of these performance rights has been received as at the date of this report. 

Class B - the Company achieving and maintaining a market capitalisation of $18m or more for a continuous 
period of 30 days on or before 31 December 2021. 

Class C - the Company achieving and maintaining a market capitalisation of $24m or more for a continuous 
period of 30 days on or before 31 December 2021 

(e) Performance Rights Plan 

The Incentive Performance Rights Plan, was approved by shareholders at the 2017 AGM, held in November 
2017.  

(f)  Ordinary shares 

Ordinary shares entitle the holder to participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up of the Company in 
proportion to the number of and amounts paid on the shares held. On a show of hands every holder of ordinary 
shares present at a meeting in person or by proxy, is entitled to one vote, and upon a poll each share is entitled 
to one vote. 

Ordinary shares have no par value and the Company does not have a limited amount of authorised capital. 

The Company does not hold any shares in the Company at 30 June 2018 (2017: Nil). 

(g) Capital risk management 

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so 
that they may continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. 
Due to the nature of the Group’s activities, being mineral exploration, the Group does not have ready access to 
credit facilities, with the primary source of funding being equity raisings. Therefore, the focus of the  Group’s 
capital risk management is the current working capital position against the requirements of the  Group to meet 
exploration  programmes  and  corporate  overheads.  The  Group’s  strategy  is  to  ensure  appropriate  liquidity  is 
maintained to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as 
required.  

The working capital position of the Group at 30 June 2018 and 30 June 2017 are as follows:

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 
TO THE MEMBERS OF OKAPI RESOURCE LIMITED 

Report on the Financial Report 

Opinion 

We  have  audited  the  financial  report  of  Okapi  Resource  Limited  (the  Company)  and  its 
controlled entity (“the Consolidated Entity”), which comprises the consolidated statement 
of financial position as at 30 June 2018, the consolidated statement of profit and loss and 
other  comprehensive  income,  the  consolidated  statement  of  changes  in  equity  and  the 
consolidated statement of cash flows for the period 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  Consolidated  Entity  is  in 
accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including: 

i)  giving a true and fair view of the  Consolidated Entity’s financial position as 
at 30 June 2018 and of its financial performance for the period then ended; 
and 

ii)  comply  with  Australian  Accounting  Standards  and 

the  Corporations 

Regulations 2001. 

Basis for Opinion 

We  have  conducted  our  audit  in  accordance  with  Australian  Auditing  Standards.    Our 
the  Auditor’s 
in 
those  Standards  are 
responsibilities  under 
Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. 

further  described 

We  are  independent  of  the  Consolidated  Entity  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 ethical requirements 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 date 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.  We have 
determined the matters described below to be key audit matters to be communicated in 
our report. 

Key Audit Matter 

Capitalised mineral exploration expenditure 
(refer note 7) 

The Group operates as an exploration entity and 
as  such  its  primary  activities  entail  expenditure 
focussed on the exploration for and evaluation of 
economically  viable  mineral  deposits.    These 
activities  currently  include  the  Mambasa  Gold 
Project in DRC and the Crackerjack Gold Project 
in WA. 

All  exploration  and  evaluation  expenditure 
incurred  has  been  capitalised  and  recognised  as 
an asset in the Statement of Financial Position.   

The  carrying  value  of  capitalised  mineral 
exploration  assets  is  subjective  and  is  based  on 
the  Group’s  intention  and  ability,  to  continue  to 
explore  the  asset.    The  carrying  value  may  also 
be  affected  by  the  results  of  ongoing  exploration 
activity  indicating  that  the  mineral  reserves  and 
resources  may  not  be  commercially  viable  for 
extraction.  This creates a risk that the asset value 
included  within  the  financial  statements  may  not 
be recoverable. 

Share based payments – performance rights 
(refer notes 10 and 11) 

The  Group  awarded  performance  rights  to  key 
management  personnel  and  employees.    The 
rights vest subject to the achievement of specific 
performance milestones. 

The  Group  used  both  the  Black-Scholes  and 
Binomial  models  in  valuing  the  rights  based  on 
the milestones attaching to each tranche of rights 
awarded. 

How our audit addressed the key audit 
matter 

Our audit procedures included: 

  ensuring the Group’s continued right to 
explore  for  minerals  in  the  relevant 
exploration  areas  including  assessing 
documentation  such  as  exploration 
and mining licences; 

  enquiring  of  management  and 

the 
directors  as  to  the  Group’s  intentions 
and  strategies  for  future  exploration 
activity  and  reviewing  budgets  and 
cash flow forecasts; 

  assessing 

the 

results  of 

recent 
to  determine 
exploration  activity 
whether 
indicators 
there  are  any 
suggesting  a  potential  impairment  of 
the carrying value of the asset; 

  assessing the Group’s ability to finance 
the planned exploration and evaluation 
activity; and 

  assessing 

the  adequacy  of 

the 
disclosures  made  by  the  Group  in  the 
financial report. 

Our audit procedures included; 

  assessing the assumptions used in the 
valuation of the performance rights; 
  assessing  the  recognition  of  the  value 

of the performance rights; 

  assessing  the  accuracy  of  the  share 
based  payment  expense  for  the  year; 
and 

  assessing 

the  adequacy  of 

the 
disclosures  made  by  the  Group  in  the 
financial report. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Other information 

The directors are responsible for the other information.  The other information comprises 
the information in the Directors’ Report for the period ended 30 June 2018, 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  the  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  the  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 
Company’s  ability  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  Company  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 the financial report. 

As  part  of  an  audit  in  accordance  with  the  Australia  Auditing  Standards,  we  exercise 
professional  judgement  and  maintain  professional  scepticism  throughout  the  audit.   We 
also: 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Identify and assess risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due 
to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and 
obtain  audit  evidence  that  is  sufficient  and  appropriate  to  provide  a  basis  for  our 
opinion.    The  risk  of  not  detecting  a  material  misstatement  resulting  from  fraud  is 
higher  than  for  one  resulting  from  error,  as  fraud  may  involve  collusion,  forgery, 
intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. 

  Obtain and understanding of internal control relevant to the audit  in order to design 
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of 
expressing  an  opinion  on  the  effectiveness  of  the  Consolidated  Entity’s  internal 
control. 

  Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of 

accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors. 

  Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of 
accounting  and,  based  on  the  audit  evidence  obtained,  whether  a  material 
uncertainty  exists  related  to  events  or  conditions  that  may  cast  significant  doubt  on 
the Consolidated Entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.  If we conclude that a 
material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to 
the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to 
modify our opinion.  Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to 
the date of our auditor’s report.  However, future events or conditions may cause the 
Consolidated Entity to cease to continue as a going concern. 

  Evaluate  the  overall  presentation,  structure  and  content  of  the  financial  report, 
including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying 
transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. 

  Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the 
entities or business activities within the Consolidated Entity to express an opinion on 
the  financial  report.  We  are  responsible  for  the  direction,  supervision  and 
performance  of  the  Consolidated  Entity  audit. We  remain  solely  responsible  for  our 
audit opinion. 

We communicate  with  the  directors regarding,  among other matters, the  planned  scope 
and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies 
in internal control that we identify during our audit. 

We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical 
requirements  regarding  independence,  and  to  communicate  with  them  all  relationships 
and  other  matters  that  may  reasonably  be  thought  to  bear  on  our  independence,  and 
where applicable, related safeguards. 

From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were 
of  most  significance  in  the  audit  of  the  financial  report  of  the  current  period  and  are 
therefore key audit matters.  We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law 
or  regulation  precludes  public  disclosure  about  the  matter  or  when,  in  extremely  rare 
circumstances,  we  determine  that  a  matter  should  not  be  communicated  in  our  report 
because  the  adverse  consequences  of  doing  so  would  reasonably  be  expected  to 
outweigh public interest benefits of such communication.
