REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Definitive Feasibility Study

On 30 June 2020 the Company announced the results of the Definitive Feasibility Study (“DFS”) to re-start production at its Davyhurst Gold 

Project, located 120 kilometres north-west of Kalgoorlie within the eastern goldfields of Western Australia (“Davyhurst” or “Project”).

Underpinned by pre-existing infrastructure, including a conventional CIP process plant, the DFS confirms that Ora Banda can undertake 

a rapid and low-capital path to achieving sustainable gold production at Davyhurst. Ore will be delivered to the processing plant from 

a combination of open pit and underground mines all located within a 50 kilometre radius. The study demonstrates that the Project is 

expected to generate strong cash flows and financial returns over a 5.2-year mine life, with average estimated pre-tax annual free cash 

flows of $33.6 million ($68.8 million at A$2,550/oz), following a 14 month (seven month at $2,550/oz) payback period. Pre-development 

activities commenced on publication of the DFS and to date have been focussed on the refurbishment of camp facilities, planning for 

the Davyhurst plant remedial works program and early planning works for mine development at both Riverina open pit and Golden Eagle 

underground mines. Plant commissioning is expected to commence in Q4, CY20 with first gold pour targeted for Q1, CY21.

The DFS declared JORC (2012) Probable Ore Reserves for the Davyhurst Project is 6.1 Mt @ 2.4 g/t Au for 460,000 ounces at 30 June 2020. 

This includes a maiden JORC (2012) Probable Ore Reserves for Waihi open pit (1.5 Mt @ 2.3 g/t Au for 108,000 ounces of contained gold) 

and Callion open pit (0.24 Mt @ 2.6 g/t Au for 21,000 ounces of contained gold). 

Note: the Review of Operations makes numerous references to individual Mineral Resource and Ore Reserves, the full detail of which 
is contained within the Annual Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve Statement on page 39 of this report.   

Base Case Provides Strong Economic Returns

DFS base case estimates for the Project using a A$2,100/oz gold price show a pre-tax, free cashflow of $175 million over a 5.2-year mine 

life with life of mine (“LOM”) average annual gold production of 81koz at a C1 cost of A$1,427/oz and all-in sustaining costs (“AISC”) of 

A$1,566/oz.

The table below shows key DFS metrics for both Base (A$2,100/oz) and Spot (A$2,550/oz) gold prices.

Pre-production Capital Costs

Davyhurst benefits from substantial pre-existing infrastructure, including a 1.2Mtpa processing plant, 172-person accommodation 

camp, extensive haul road network, mains power and licensed working process-water borefields, all of which are under a full care and 

maintenance program. This infrastructure significantly reduces the capital required to re-commence production at Davyhurst which 

is set out below.

Exploration & Resource Drilling Operations

The Company has continued to undertake drilling programs across its highly prospective 1,350km2 landholding, covering 200 
kilometres of strike length of prospective greenstone belts, focussing on:

•  Resource definition drilling;

•  Follow up drilling programs on near-mine prospects, including Riverina South;

•  Exploration drilling on regional targets, for which Ora Banda has identified a number of high priority prospects.

Resource Definition Drilling Overview

Drilling operations at Davyhurst continued during the year with the completion of 40,197 reverse circulation drill metres and 11,696 

diamond metres for a combined total of 51,893 drill metres.  

As part of the DFS process the Company has remained focussed on fully evaluating both the technical and economic viability of five 

advanced projects, all of which are well-understood geologically and are relatively close to the Davyhurst processing plant.

Mineral resource increases at Riverina, Waihi, Callion and Golden Eagle delivered an uplift in the Company’s Mineral Resource 

statement as at 30 June 2020 to 23.7Mt @ 2.8g/t for 2.1 million ounces of contained gold, up from 1.8 million ounces, with further 

updates pending. The Company’s Reserve position for the Davyhurst Gold Project increased to 6.1Mt @ 2.4g/t Au for 460,000 ounces,  

up from 150,000 ounces

The primary objective of the drilling programs was to deliver 

upgraded mineral resources and reserves into the DFS. The 

drilling also aims to quantify the technical aspects of each of 

the deposits, which included environmental, metallurgical and 

geotechnical input parameters. The intensive drilling programs 

progressed well during the year.

The six targeted deposits include:

•  Riverina;

•  Waihi;

•  Callion;

•  Missouri;

•  Sand King; and

•  Golden Eagle.

Riverina

An update to the open pit and underground Mineral Resources for 

Riverina resulted in an increase of 57% (117,000 ounces) to 3.7Mt 

@ 2.7g/t Au for 322,000 Au ounces. Riverina has an open pit reserve 

of 1.4Mt @ 1.8g/t Au for 81,000 ounces and is scheduled to be the 

first ore mined at the Davyhurst Gold Project. 

Mining studies continue to evaluate the underground Resource 
component (728kt @ 5.9 g/t Au for 139,000 ounces) with a view 

to defining the economic viability of an underground mine that 

would follow on from the initial open pit mining event.  

The updated underground Mineral Resource follows further 

modelling of Riverina Main Lode beneath the A$2,400 optimised 

open pit shell used to constrain the Riverina open pit resource. 

Historical underground mining of the Main Lode at Riverina was 

via a number of shafts that produced 99,500t @ 15.8 g/t Au for 
50,490 ounces1.

Gold mineralisation plunges to the south and is hosted within two 

sub-parallel, sub-vertical shears separated by a distance of five to 

15 metres. Drilling has demonstrated a strike of greater than one 

kilometre and at depths of up to 270 metres below surface.

Riverina South Prospect

The Riverina South prospect area is being targeted for possible extensions to the currently defined Riverina Mine. 

Exploration drilling programs have returned exciting results1 including:

•  12.0m @ 6.4 g/t from 56m (Including 7.0m @ 10.5 g/t)

•  8.0m @ 7.7 g/t from 16m (Including 4.0m @ 14.5 g/t)

•  13.0m @ 3.2 g/t from 106m

•  10.0m @ 4.1 g/t from 115m (Including 2.0m @ 14.3 g/t)

•  10.0m @ 3.9g/t from 83m

•  12.0m @ 3.0 g/t from 72m (Including 5.0m @ 5.9 g/t)

•  7.0m @ 4.6 g/t from 28m (Including 3.0m @ 9.9g/t)

•  2.0m @ 15.9 g/t from 136m

•  6.0m @ 3.6 g/t from 47m

•  1.0m @ 20.8g/t from 77m

The Riverina South prospect is a one kilometre long, highly prospective strike extension corridor immediately south of the main Riverina 

mining area and has been the focus of recent resource development and exploration works. The Phase 1 drilling program comprised 32 

RC holes for 3,639 metres, reaching a maximum depth of 150 metres. This first pass wide spaced drilling was conducted on 80 metre line 

centres and commenced immediately south of the proposed Riverina open pit and continued to the British Lion prospect, one kilometre 

to the south.

A follow up drilling program (Phase 2) has been completed, infilling the drill spacing in prospective zones along the Riverina South trend to 

40 metre line spacing.  A maiden mineral resource estimate for the area will follow.

The Golden Eagle deposit is located two kilometres from the Davyhurst processing plant. The existing Golden Eagle Resource has been 

upgraded to 393,000 tonnes at 3.9 g/t Au for 49,000 ounces of contained gold reflecting the potential to mine this deposit via conventional 

underground mining methods. This includes an Indicated Resource of 247,000 tonnes also at a substantially higher grade of 4.1 g/t Au for 

33,000 ounces of contained gold.

The underground Ore Reserve for Golden Eagle was declared as part of the DFS and totalled 130,000 tonnes @ 3.8g/t for 16,000 ounces.

The most recent phase of underground mining operations at Golden Eagle commenced in August 2017 and was subsequently suspended 

in August 2018. Approximately 2,100 metres of underground development was completed and 25,000t of ore at a grade of 3.4 g/t Au was 

mined from production stopes during this period. Collectively, ore won from development and production areas was 70,150t at a grade of 

2.9 g/t Au for 6,640 contained ounces of gold.

As a result of these activities, the mine is well established with capital decline development approaching 150 vertical metres (319mRL) 

below the surface and 85 metres below the portal. Ore development is well established on four levels (395, 375, 355 & 335), with stope 

production well established (or complete) on three (395, 375 & 355).

Between December 2019 and March 2020, eight RC holes with diamond tails were completed (2,998 metres) along strike to the north of 

the Golden Eagle resource, targeting down-plunge extensions of the Golden Eagle underground mine. The northern-most line of three drill 
holes was approximately 100 metres north of the Golden Eagle resource. Significant results received from this program include: 5.6m @ 

3.2 g/t Au from 207.4m (GEDD20001/Footwall Lode), 2m @ 6.5 g/t Au from 250m (GEDD19004/Footwall Lode), 2.3m @ 7.5 g/t Au from 343.2m 

(GEDD19006/Main Lode) and 2.1m @ 12.9 g/t Au from 350.9m (GEDD19006/Footwall Lode). Mineralisation remains open to the north.

Located approximately 37 kilometres from the Davyhurst processing plant, the Siberia Project incorporates both the Sand King and 

Missouri open pits. A 12-hole infill drill program (1,886 metres of diamond drilling) was completed, 11 holes at Sand King and one hole 

at Missouri. The program was designed to infill resource areas below the base of the existing open pit.

Missouri is a high priority mining target at the Davyhurst Gold Project, with mining scheduled to commence early in CY2021. This will be 

the third mining operation to commence and will be mined in conjunction with Riverina and Golden Eagle. The Missouri deposit has 

a current Mineral Resource of 2.1Mt @ 3.4 g/t Au for 227,000 ounces and an open pit Mining Reserve of 1.5Mt @ 2.6 g/t Au for 130,000 

ounces Au. 

The Sand King deposit has a current Mineral Resource of 2.52Mt @ 3.5 g/t Au for 286,000 ounces and an open pit Mining Reserve 

estimate of 1.3Mt @ 2.6 g/t Au for 110,000 ounces Au.

Waihi

Waihi is a well-established mining centre located three kilometres to the west of Ora Banda’s processing plant and will provide 

additional open pit production by way of a significant open pit cut back.

The Waihi Complex comprises the historical Waihi, Homeward Bound and Golden Pole deposits. Following an extensive resource drilling 

program completed in January 2020, the Mineral Resource Estimate was updated to a published mineral resource of 2.46Mt @ 2.6g/t Au 

for 206,000 ounces. This represented a 190% increase over the previously reported resource of 0.9Mt @ 2.4g/t Au for 71,000 ounces.

The DFS includes the maiden JORC (2012) Probable Ore Reserves for Waihi open pit of 1.5 Mt @ 2.3 g/t Au for 108,000 ounces of 

contained gold.

Phase 1 of the Waihi resource definition infill drilling program focussed on delineating and upgrading an optimal open pit Mineral 

Resource on the Waihi and Homeward Bound lines of lode. Additional drilling targeted open pit extensions to the north and south of 

the existing open pit, and also the potential for underground resource extensions at depth.

Figure 7  Waihi Area Location Plan

Callion

Located approximately 13 kilometres from the Davyhurst processing plant, the existing Callion open pit is approximately 650 metres 

long and 40 metres deep, with the underground workings extending off the southern end of the pit to a vertical depth of 220 metres 

below surface.

The total upgraded Callion Mineral Resource (Indicated and Inferred) increased to 680,000 t @ 4.9 g/t Au for 107,000 ounces Au.  

A Maiden Underground Mineral Resource (Indicated and Inferred) was declared at Callion totalling 411,000 t @ 5.8 g/t Au for 77,000 oz 

Au. This complemented the recently announced open pit resource 269,000 t @ 3.5 g/t Au for 30,000 oz Au. Mineralisation remains open 

down plunge of the known resource areas. Strong potential remains for further resource growth with additional drilling.

Development plans for the Callion deposit include an open pit cut back and re-establishing access to existing underground mine 

workings to extract a number of high-grade zones that remain within the historical mine and the development of new high-grade 

areas below the existing mine workings.

REGIONAL EXPLORATION

Regional exploration continued throughout the year, with all minimum expenditure commitments met.

The exploration focus has been on the development of a coherent exploration program for the coming 12 months and continuation of 

the ranking and target definition for all prospects within the Company’s extensive project area. Exploration RC (6,513 metres), Aircore 

(3,448 metres), Auger (1,091 holes) and diamond (313.9 metres) drilling was undertaken on several prospects throughout the Davyhurst 

Gold Project. Field mapping, surface sampling and pXRF analyses were also routinely undertaken.

Lady Ida Project

The Flame prospect was first defined by surface (auger) geochemical anomaly which was tested by RAB drilling in 2005. This drilling 

returned an anomalous intersection of 3m @ 1.27g/t from SRB3049. The prospect is interpreted to lie on the same mineralised trend as 

the Golden Lode deposit. To date, this trend has been under explored.

The Flame prospect has only limited shallow drilling in the area. The initial RC program consisted of two holes on the same section line 

as SRB3049. Drilling intersected a sequence of fine grained foliated ultramafics with a wide zone of quartz veining and alteration. A 

number of significant intercepts were returned from this zone including 2.0m @ 19.22 g/t Au, 9.0m @ 5.53g/t Au and 3.0m @ 8.19 g/t Au 
(at a 0.5g/t lower cut). This entire mineralised zone bulks out to 25m @ 4.64g/t Au if a lower cut off of 0.2g/t is applied.

Please refer to ASX announcement dated 20 May 2020 for more information. Further follow-up work is planned.

Mulline Project (Young Australian) 

The Young Australian prospect is situated in the central part of the Mulline gold corridor, in the northern part of Ora Banda’s Davyhurst 

Gold Project. The Mulline corridor is a north trending approximately 16 km long x 2.5 km wide zone with a high concentration of the 

historic shafts, old workings and more recent shallow laterite pits.

Drilling at Young Australian on two fences of holes 400 metres apart intersected multiple zones of quartz-sulphide veining 

accompanied by biotite-chlorite-sulphide alteration. in a moderate east dipping structure within an altered basalt. Best results 

returned include 4m @ 6.18 g/t Au from 36m, 4m @ 10.78 g/t Au from 48m, 8m @ 1.09 g/t Au from 44m, and 4m @ 3.82 g/t Au from 137m.

The mineralised zone continues over 350 metres south of the current drilling as identified by historic RAB drill holes MERB232 7m 

@ 2.3 g/t Au from 38m and RC hole FTRC003, 5m @ 7.52 g/t Au from 38m.

Capital Structure

As discussed above, during the year ended 30 June 2020 the Company issued 100 million ordinary shares through two tranches at a 

price of $0.185 per share, raising $18.5 million before capital raising costs of $0.83 million.

Additionally, 4,565,000 ordinary shares were issued on the exercise of unlisted vested options at a nil exercise price.

A total of 5,581,071 unlisted options were issued during the year ended 30 June 2020, as follows:

•  4,220,714 options are subject to a vesting condition based on Relative Total Shareholder Return, whereby the Company’s total 

shareholder return is measured relative to the returns of a peer group over the performance period 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2022. A 

total of 50% of the options will vest if the Company’s performance relative to the peer group is at the 50th percentile, while 100% 

of the options will vest if the Company’s performance relative to the peer group is at the 75th percentile. The vesting of the options 

between the 50th and the 75th percentile will be 50% to 100% vesting based on a straight-line pro rata basis;

•  1,360,357 options are subject to a vesting condition based on the achievement of the Company’s performance metrics over 

the performance period 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2020. The vesting criteria are 50% vesting based on the Company’s management 

response criteria, 40% vesting based on the Company’s physical and cost performance criteria and 10% based on the Company’s 

relative shareholder return performance criteria.

BUSINESS RISK

Following completion of a DFS, and the subsequent raising of funding required to implement the DFS, the Company’s primary business 
risk resides in execution of the DFS. Key challenges include risks associated with the re-start of mining and ore processing operations. 

To mitigate the risk, the Company has assembled teams of highly skilled and experienced management and operational personnel. 

Further, it has access to suitability qualified and experienced contractors and consultants. With these measures in place, the 

Company is confident its execution risk is sufficiently mitigated.

Since January 2020 the Group’s operations have been largely unaffected by COVID-19. The Company will continue to adapt and mitigate, 

as far as practicable, the risks the disease presents. Given the industry framework in which Ora Banda operates and the strong, debt-

free balance sheet, Ora Banda will continue to actively pursue its business objectives, subject to the evolving and unforeseen impacts 

of COVID-19.

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE STATE OF AFFAIRS

There were no significant changes in the state of affairs of Ora Banda Mining Limited during the year.

EVENTS AFTER BALANCE DATE

On 3 July 2020 the Company announced a $55 million equity capital raising comprising an institutional placement to raise 

approximately $40 million and a 1 for 9 Accelerated Non-Renounceable Entitlement Offer to raise approximately $15 million over  

two tranches. The first tranche was completed on 29 July 2020, and the second tranche was completed on 9 September 2020. 

Apart from the above, no other matters have arisen since the end of the financial year that impact or are likely to impact the results of 

the Group in subsequent financial periods.

Board and Remuneration & Nomination Committee responsibility

The Remuneration & Nomination Committee is a subcommittee of the board. It assists the board to ensure that the Company 

develops and implements remuneration policies and practices that are appropriate for a company of the nature, size and standing of 

the Company.

The Remuneration & Nomination Committee is responsible for making recommendations to the board on:

•  Remuneration arrangements (including base pay, performance targets, bonuses, equity awards, superannuation, retirement 

rights, termination payments) for the Executive Director and Senior Executives;

•  Remuneration of Non-executive Directors; and 

•  Establishment of employee incentive and equity-based plans and the number and terms of any incentives proposed to be issued to 

Executives pursuant to those plans, including any vesting criteria.

The Company’s remuneration strategy and structure is reviewed by the board and the Remuneration & Nomination Committee for 

business appropriateness and market suitability on an ongoing basis. KMP are remunerated and rewarded in accordance with the 

Company’s remuneration policies (outlined in further detail below).

Engagement of remuneration consultants 

During the year, the Company did not engage remuneration consultants to provide a “remuneration recommendation” (as defined in 

the Corporations Act 2001), however independent advice was received when the current remuneration framework was established. 

This advice was in respect of remuneration reporting and general advice in respect of market practice for long term incentive plans. 

In addition, the Remuneration & Nomination Committee benchmark KMP remuneration annually using external independent industry 

reports and data to ensure that remuneration levels are competitive and meet the objectives of the Company.

2019 AGM voting outcome and comments 

The Company received more than 99% of votes in favour of adopting its Remuneration Report for the 2019 financial year.

4.  FY20 KMP REMUNERATION

In determining KMP remuneration, the board aims to ensure that remuneration practices are:

•  Competitive and reasonable, enabling the Company to attract and retain high calibre talent;

•  Aligned to the Company’s strategic and business objectives and the creation of shareholder value;

•  Transparent and easily understood; and 

•  Acceptable to shareholders.

The Company’s approach to remuneration ensures that remuneration is competitive, performance-focussed, clearly links appropriate 

reward with desired business performance, and is simple to administer and understand by Executives and shareholders. In line with 

the remuneration policy, remuneration levels are reviewed annually to ensure alignment to the market and the Company’s stated 

objectives.

The Company’s reward structure for Executives provides for a combination of fixed and variable pay with the following components:

•  Fixed remuneration in the form of base salary, superannuation and benefits;

•  Variable remuneration in the form of short-term incentives (“STI”) and long-term incentives (“LTI”).

In accordance with the Company’s objective to ensure that executive remuneration is aligned to Company performance, a portion  

of Executives’ remuneration is placed “at risk”. The relative proportion of target FY20 total remuneration packages split between the 

fixed and variable remuneration is shown below:

Target STI 
(% of total remuneration)

Target LTI 
(% of total remuneration)

40%

40%

20%

20%

40%

40%

Fixed remuneration is set at a level that is aligned to market benchmarks and reflective of Executives’ skills, experience, 

responsibilities and performance.

When positioning base pay, the Company presently aims to position aggregate fixed remuneration at approximately the 50th 

percentile of the industry benchmark AON McDonald Report (an independent, industry recognised report on the gold and mining 

industry). This is to ensure that the Company’s remuneration arrangements remain competitive against peer companies to assist 

with the retention and attraction of key talent.

Executive remuneration is benchmarked annually to ASX-listed companies of similar size (by market capitalisation), revenue base, 

employee numbers and complexity. Specific reference is also made to peer companies within the mining and exploration sectors.

b.  Short-term incentive (“STI”) arrangements

The purpose of the STI plan is to link the achievement of key Company targets with the remuneration received by those Executives 

charged with meeting the targets. The STI Plan is structured so that Executives have the opportunity to earn a cash and/or equity 

bonus if certain key performance indicators (“KPIs”) are achieved. The Company must report a surplus of net cash flow from 

operating activities for the applicable performance period for any cash STI to be paid.

Each year the Remuneration & Nomination Committee (“Committee”), in conjunction with the board, set KPI targets for Executives. 

Ordinarily, the KPIs would include measures relating to the Group and the individual, and include environmental, health & safety, 

financial, production, exploration, business development and company performance measures.

The maximum target STI opportunity for Executives is as follows:

Of the issued KMP options above, 3,720,714 are subject to a vesting condition based on Relative Total Shareholder Return (“RTSR”), 

whereby the Company’s total shareholder return is measured relative to the returns of a peer group over the performance period 

1 July 2019 to 30 June 2022. This performance condition was selected as the Committee seeks to benchmark performance against its 

peers and reward its KMP for outperforming comparable companies. The fair value of the RTSR options was estimated as at the date  

of grant using a Monte-Carlo simulation model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. 

These options will vest according to the following schedule:

The remaining 860,357 issued KMP options are subject to a vesting condition based on the achievement of Company performance 

metrics (“Other”) over the period 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2020. The fair value of these options was estimated as at the date of grant using 

the Black-Scholes option pricing methodology taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted.  

The options vested upon completion of the performance milestones as described in “Table 1.1: STI Performance Targets” above, 

resulting in 86.1% (740,767) of the options vesting and 13.9% (119,590) being forfeited.

e.  Non-executive Directors’ Remuneration

The Company’s policy is to remunerate Non-executive Directors (“NEDs”) at market rates (for comparable companies) for time 

commitment and responsibilities. To align their interests with those of shareholders, NEDs are encouraged to hold shares in 

the Company. The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to be approved by shareholders and the fee structure is reviewed 

annually against fees paid to NEDs of comparable companies.

Payments reflect the demands that are made on and the responsibilities of NEDs. NEDs’ fees and payments are reviewed annually 

by the board. The Company’s constitution and ASX Listing Rules specify that the NEDs’ remuneration fee pool shall be determined 

from time to time at a general meeting of shareholders.

In accordance with current corporate governance practices, the structure for the remuneration of NEDs and Senior Executives 

is separate and distinct. Shareholders approve the maximum aggregate remuneration for NEDs. On 7 June 2019 shareholders 

approved the current limit of $850,000. The board determines the actual payments to directors. The remuneration of NEDs 

(inclusive of all committee fees and exclusive of superannuation) for the year ended 30 June 2020 have been set at $165,000 for 

the Chair and $110,000 for other NEDs. In accordance with the remuneration options structure outlined above, NEDs’ cash salaries 

were reduced to $107,250 for the Chair and $71,500 for other NEDs for a period of 12 months from 2 April 2019 to 1 April 2020.

ORA BANDA MINING LIMITED AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIESACN 100 038 266   ANNUAL REPORT 2020ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS

The Group is subject to significant environmental regulation in respect to its mineral exploration activities. These obligations are 

regulated under relevant government authorities within Australia. The Group is a party to exploration and mine development licences. 

Generally these licences specify the environmental regulations applicable to exploration and mining operations in the respective 

jurisdictions. The Group aims to ensure that it complies with the identified regulatory requirements in each jurisdiction in which  

it operates.

Compliance with environmental obligations is monitored by the directors. No environmental breaches have been notified to the  

Group by any government agency during the year ended 30 June 2020.

WARDENS COURT PROCEEDINGS

The Company (and its wholly owned subsidiaries) is a party to various proceedings in the Wardens Court pursuant to which third parties 

are seeking to challenge its title to various mining tenements by way of forfeiture and other proceedings. The directors are confident 

that the Company (and its wholly owned subsidiaries) will be successful in defending these proceedings. There were no proceedings 

against any subsidiary that could bring into doubt whether the Company controlled any of its subsidiaries within the Group.

PROCEEDINGS ON BEHALF OF THE COMPANY

Other than as referred to above, no person has applied for leave of a court or to bring proceedings on behalf of the Company or 
intervene in any proceedings to which the Company is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the Company, for all 

or any part of those proceedings.

NON AUDIT SERVICES

The Group may decide to employ the auditor on assignments additional to their statutory audit duties where the auditor’s expertise 

and experience with the Group are important. The directors consider the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by 

the Corporations Act 2001 before any engagements are agreed.

No non audit services were provided by KPMG, the Group’s auditors, during the year (30 June 2019: $Nil). Further details of 

remuneration of the auditors are set out at Note 17.

AUDITOR’S INDEPENDENCE

A copy of the auditor’s independence declaration as required under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is included immediately 

following the Directors’ Report and forms part of this Directors’ Report.

INDEMNIFICATION OF AUDITORS

To the extent permitted by law, the Company has agreed to indemnify its auditors, KPMG, as part of the terms of its audit engagement 

agreement against claims by third parties arising from the audit (for an unspecified sum). No payment has been made to indemnify 

KPMG during or since the financial year end.

ORA BANDA MINING LIMITED AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIESACN 100 038 266   ANNUAL REPORT 2020INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

The Company has entered into indemnity agreements with each of the directors and officers of the Company. Under the agreements, 

the Company will indemnify those parties against certain claims or for any expenses or costs which may arise as a result of work

ORA BANDA MINING LIMITED AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIESACN 100 038 266   ANNUAL REPORT 2020 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
1.  The Missouri, Sand King, Riverina, Waihi, Callion & Golden Eagle Mineral Resources have been updated in accordance with all relevant aspects of  
the JORC code 2012, and initially released to the market on 15 December 2016 & 26 May 2020 (Missouri), 3 January 2017 & 26 May 2020 (Sand King),  
2 December 2019 & 26 May 2020 (Riverina), 4 February 2020 (Waihi), 15 May 2020 & 29 June 2020 (Callion) & 8 April 2020 (Golden Eagle).

2.  All Mineral Resources listed above, with the exception of the Missouri, Sand King, Riverina, Waihi, Callion & Golden Eagle Mineral Resources, were 
prepared previously and first disclosed under the JORC Code 2004 (refer Swan Gold Mining Limited Prospectus announced on 13 February 2013).  
These Mineral Resources have not been updated in accordance with JORC Code 2012 on the basis that the information has not materially changed 
since it was first reported.

3.  The Riverina, Waihi, Sand King, Missouri and Callion Open Pit Mineral Resource Estimates are reported within a A$2,400/oz pit shell above 0.5g/t.  
The Riverina, Waihi, Sand King, Missouri, Callion and Golden Eagle Underground Mineral Resource Estimates are reported from material outside  
a A$2,400 pit shell and above 2.0 g/t.

4.  The values in the above table have been rounded.

Ore Reserve at 30 June 2020

Total Ore Reserves at 30 June 2020 are estimated of 6.1 Mt @ 2.4 g/t Au for 460,000 ounces of contained gold. No active ore mining has 

occurred in this project area hence no resource depletion has occurred for the year.

1.  The table contains rounding adjustments to two significant figures and does not total exactly.

2.  This Ore Reserve was estimated from practical mining envelopes and the application of modifying factors for mining dilution and ore loss.

3.  For the open pit Ore Reserve dilution skins were applied to the undiluted LUC Mineral Resource estimate at zero grade. The in-pit global dilution is 

estimated to be 29% at Sand King, 43% at Missouri, 22% at Riverina, 13% at Waihi and 23% at Callion all of which were applied at zero grade. The lower 
dilution at Riverina, Waihi and Callion reflecting the softer lode boundary and allows for inherent dilution within the lode wireframe.  All Inferred 
Mineral Resources were considered as waste at zero grade.

4.  The Open Pit Ore Reserve was estimated using incremental cut-off grades specific to location and weathering classification. They range from 0.54 

g/t to 0.69 g/t Au and are based on a price of A$2,100 per ounce and include ore transport, processing, site overheads and selling costs and allow for 
process recovery specific to the location and domain and which range from 85% (Sand King fresh ore) to 95%.

5.  Approximately 100,000 t at 1.8 g/t at Riverina was downgraded from Proved to Probable due to uncertainty at the time surrounding metallurgical 
recovery. Subsequent test work estimated the Riverina recoveries to be 90.1%, 97.6% and 94.3% for oxide, transition and fresh, respectively.

6.  The underground Ore Reserve was estimated from practical mining envelopes derived from expanded wireframes to allow for unplanned dilution.  

A miscellaneous unplanned dilution factor of 5% at zero grade was also included. The global dilution factor was estimated to be 32% with an average 
grade of 0.77 g/t Au.

7.  The underground Ore Reserve was estimated using stoping cut-off of 2.7 g/t Au which allows for ore drive development, stoping and downstream costs 
such as ore haulage, processing, site overheads and selling costs. An incremental cut-off grade of 0.7 g/t Au was applied to ore drive development and 
considers downstream costs only.  Cut-off grades were derived from a base price of A$2,100 per ounce and allow for an assumed process recovery of 
92%. Subsequent test work estimated the Golden Eagle fresh recovery to be 90.6%.

1.  BASIS OF PREPARATION

Ora Banda Mining Limited (“Company”) and its subsidiaries (“Group”) are a for-profit group of companies incorporated and domiciled 

in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”). The nature of the operations and principal 

activities of the Group are described in the Directors’ Report.

The consolidated financial statements were approved by the board of directors on 25 September 2020. The consolidated financial 

report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 

2001, Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”). The financial 

report has been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial assets and liabilities which are measured on a fair 

value basis. The consolidated financial report is presented in Australian dollars, which is the functional and presentation currency  

of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the consolidated financial statements and notes comply with 

International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

The Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191 and  

in accordance with that Instrument, all financial information has been rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, unless 

otherwise stated.

(a)  Changes in accounting policies and disclosures

New and amended standards and interpretations

The Group has not yet early adopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet 

effective.

AASB 16 Leases
The Group applied AASB 16 Leases for the first time from 1 July 2019. A number of other new standards are also effective from 1 July 

2019 but they do not have a material effect on the Group’s financial statements.

AASB 16 introduced a single, on-balance sheet accounting model for lessees. As a result, the Group, as a lessee, has recognised 

right-of-use assets representing its right to use the underlying assets and lease liabilities representing its obligation to make 

lease payments.

The Group adopted the new standard using the modified retrospective approach, where the lease liability is measured at the 

present value of future lease payments on the initial date of application, being 1 July 2019. The lease asset is measured as an 

amount equal to the lease liability. Under the transition method, prior period comparative financial statements are not required 

to be restated. 

Leases
Previously, the Group determined at contract inception whether an arrangement was or contained a lease under AASB 

Interpretation 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease. The Group now assesses whether a contract is or 

contains a lease based on the new definition of a lease. Under AASB 16, a contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys a 

right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

On transition to AASB 16, the Group elected to apply the practical expedient to grandfather the assessment of which transactions 

are leases. It applied AASB 16 only to contracts that were previously identified as leases. Contracts that were not identified as 

leases under AASB 117 and AASB Interpretation 4 were not reassessed. Therefore, the definition of a lease under AASB 16 has been 

applied only to contracts entered into or changed on or after 1 July 2019.

At inception or on reassessment of a contract that contains a lease component, the Group allocates the consideration in 

the contract to each lease and non-lease component on the basis of their relative stand-alone prices. However, for leases of 

properties in which it is a lessee, the Group has elected not to separate non-lease components and will instead account for the 

lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.

49

ORA BANDA MINING LIMITED AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIESACN 100 038 266   ANNUAL REPORT 2020The Group as Lessee

The Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of that contract. The Group recognises a right-of-use 

asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease arrangements in which it is the lessee, except for short-term leases 

(defined as leases with a lease term of 12 months or less) and leases of low value assets (as example certain office equipment). For 

these leases, the Group recognises the lease payments as an expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another 

systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased assets are consumed.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, 

discounted by using the rate implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot be readily determined, the Group uses its incremental 

borrowing rate.

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise:

• 

• 

Fixed lease payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable;

Variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date.

The Group presents lease liabilities as a separate line item in the consolidated statement of financial position. The lease liability 

is subsequently measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability (using the effective interest 

method) and by reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made. The interest expense is charged to profit or loss 

over the lease period to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.

The Group remeasures the lease liability (and makes a corresponding adjustment to the related right-of-use asset) whenever:

• 

The lease term has changed or there is a significant event or change in circumstances resulting in a change in the assessment 

of exercise of a purchase option, in which case the lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised lease payments 

using a revised discount rate;

• 

The lease payments change due to changes in an index or rate or a change in expected payment under a guaranteed residual 

value, in which cases the lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised lease payments using an unchanged 

discount rate (unless the lease payments change is due to a change in a floating interest rate, in which case a revised 

discount rate is used);

• 

A lease contract is modified and the lease modification is not accounted for as a separate lease, in which case the lease 

liability is remeasured based on the lease term of the modified lease by discounting the revised lease payments using a 

revised discount rate at the effective date of the modification.

Right-of-use assets comprise the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability, lease payments made at or before the 

commencement day, less any lease incentives received and any initial direct costs. They are subsequently measured at cost less 

accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the shorter period of lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. If a lease 

transfers ownership of the underlying asset or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Group expects to exercise a 

purchase option, the related right-of-use asset is depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset. The depreciation starts 

at the commencement date of the lease.

Right-of-use assets are presented as a separate line in the consolidated statement of financial position. The Group applies AASB 136 

Impairment of Assets to determine whether a right-of-use asset is impaired and, if so, recognises the impairment loss in profit or loss.

The Group has applied judgement to determine the lease term for some lease contracts in which it is a lessee that include renewal 

options. The assessment of whether the Group is reasonably certain to exercise such options impacts the lease term, which 
significantly affects the amount of lease liabilities and right-of-use assets recognised.

Transition (Group as Lessee)

At transition, for leases classified as operating leases under AASB 117, lease liabilities were measured at the present value of 

the remaining lease payments, discounted at the Group’s incremental borrowing rate as at 1 July 2019. Right-of-use assets are 

measured at an amount equal to the lease liability, adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments.

The Group used the following practical expedients when applying AASB 16 to leases previously classified as operating leases under 

AASB 117:

• 

Applied the exemption not to recognise right-of-use assets and liabilities for leases with less than 12 months of lease term and 

leases of low value assets;

• 

Excluded initial direct costs from measuring the right-of-use asset at the date of initial application; and

•  Used hindsight when determining the lease term if the contract contains options to extend or terminate the lease.

50

ORA BANDA MINING LIMITED AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIESACN 100 038 266   ANNUAL REPORT 2020N O T E S   T O   T H E   C O N S O L I D AT E D 
F I N A N C I A L   S TAT E M E N T S

For leases classified as finance leases under AASB 117, the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset and the lease liability at 1 July 

2019 were determined at the carrying amount of the lease asset and lease liability under AASB 117 immediately before that date.

The impact of initial application of AASB 16 at the 1 July 2019 transition date was the recognition of a right-of-use asset of $132,000 

and a corresponding lease liability in the statement of financial position. For those lease arrangements where an interest rate 

has not been determined by the financier, an incremental borrowing rate is estimated to calculate the interest component and 

discount of the lease liabilities as at 1 July 2019. The Group’s incremental borrowing rate has been determined based on market-

equivalent borrowing rates to finance assets of a similar nature. The Group’s incremental borrowing rate applied, on average, was 

6% for those lease liabilities recorded on transition. This average rate has not changed as a result of new leases arranged during 

the period. Further disclosures are included in Notes 11 and 12.

IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments

IFRIC 23 became effective for the Group from 1 July 2019 and clarifies how the recognition and measurement requirements of 

IAS 12 Income Taxes are applied where there is uncertainty over income tax treatments. The Group has reviewed the accounting 

standard and has determined that there is no material impact.

(b)  Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Group. A list of controlled companies 

(subsidiaries) at year end is disclosed in Note 22.

The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent 

accounting policies.

Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are 

eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

(c)  Fair value measurement

A number of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value for both financial and non-

financial assets and liabilities. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly 

transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or, in its absence, the most advantageous 

market to which the Group has access at that date. The fair value of a liability reflects its non-performance risk. Fair values 

have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. When applicable, further 

information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.

When measuring the fair value of an asset or liability, the Group uses observable market data as far as possible. Fair values are 

categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows: 

• 

• 

Level 1:  Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 Level 2:  Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (ie: as 

prices) or indirectly (ie: derived from prices);

• 

Level 3:  Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the 
fair value measurement is categorised in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is 

significant to the entire measurement. The Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the 

reporting period during which the change has occurred.

(d)  New Standards and Standards not yet Effective

The Company has adopted all new standards and pronouncements applicable to the reporting period. Other than the impact of 

the adoption of AASB 16 Leases, there was no other impact to the Company. There are no standards or pronouncements not yet 

effective, but to be adopted in future periods, which have been assessed to have an impact on the Company once adopted.

(e)  Revenue recognition

Gold bullion sales
Under AASB 15, revenue is recognised when a customer obtains control of the goods or services. Determining the timing of the 

transfer of control requires judgement. With the sale of gold bullion, this occurs when physical bullion, from a contracted sale, 

is transferred from the Company’s to the buyer’s account. The Company’s sole customer is the Perth Mint. No sales were made 

during the reporting period.

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the 

application of accounting policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses.

Judgements and estimates which are material to the financial report are found in the following notes:

•  Note 5: Income Tax – consideration to recognition of deferred tax assets;

•  Note 7: Trade Receivables – provision for expected credit losses on trade and other receivables;

•  Note 9: Exploration, Evaluation and Development Expenditure – consideration of impairment reversal indicators and recognition 

of impairment losses or reversals;

•  Note 9: Reserves and Resources – estimating reserves and resources;

•  Note 10: Property, Plant and Equipment – consideration of impairment triggers;

•  Note 14: Provision for Rehabilitation – measurement of provision based on key assumptions; and

•  Note 26: Share-based Payments – estimations involving valuation of options issued to directors and employees.

Finance expenses comprise interest expense on borrowings, unwinding of the discount on provisions and change in the value of 

investments measured at fair value through the profit and loss. All borrowing costs are recognised in the consolidated statement of 

profit or loss and other comprehensive income using the effective interest method in the period in which they are incurred except 

borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction and production of a qualifying asset that necessarily 

takes a substantial period to get ready for its intended use or sale. In this case, borrowing costs are capitalised as part of the 

qualifying asset.

Based on the 30 June 2019 lodged Group income tax return and estimates for 30 June 2020, the Group has an unrecognised deferred 

tax asset of $84.20 million on carried forward tax losses of $280.67 million. Losses carried forward of $170.24 million as at 30 June 2019 

are subject to the satisfaction of the same business test or the business continuity test, due to several continuity of ownership failures 

during the loss year periods. Losses incurred post 30 June 2016 are subject to the satisfaction of the continuity of ownership test.

Accounting policies

Income tax

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it 

relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity. 

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at 

balance date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. 

Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of 

assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is measured at the tax 

rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or 

substantively enacted at balance date. 

Tax losses

Deferred tax assets are recognised for the carry-forward of unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits 

will be available in the future against which unused tax losses can be utilised. The deductible carry-forward tax losses do not expire 

under current tax legislation. Deferred tax assets have not been recognised in respect of these items because it is not probable 

that future taxable profit will be available against which the Group can utilise the benefits therefrom, detailed further in significant 

judgements below.

Tax consolidation

Ora Banda Mining Limited and its wholly owned Australian resident subsidiaries have formed a tax consolidated group with effect from 

1 July 2002. Ora Banda Mining Limited is the head entity of the tax consolidated group. 

Tax effect accounting by members of the tax consolidated group

The head entity and the controlled entities in the tax consolidated group continue to account for their own current and deferred tax 

amounts. The Group has applied the group allocation approach in determining the appropriate amount of current taxes and deferred 

taxes to allocate to members of the tax consolidated group. The current and deferred tax amounts are measured in a systematic 

manner that is consistent with the broad principles in AASB 112 Income Taxes.

Significant judgements

Deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets, including those arising from unutilised tax losses, require the Group to assess the likelihood that it will generate 

sufficient taxable earnings in future periods, in order to utilise recognised deferred tax assets. Assumptions about the generation of 

future taxable profits depend on management’s estimates of future cash flows. These estimates of future taxable income are based 

on forecast cash flows from operations (which are impacted by production and sales volumes, commodity prices, reserves, operating 

costs, closure and rehabilitation costs, capital expenditure and other capital management transactions). To the extent that future 

cash flows and taxable income differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the Group to realise the net deferred tax assets could 

be impacted. 

On 30 June 2020, the Group released a Definitive Feasibility Study (“DFS”) that outlined the path to re-starting production at its 

Davyhurst Gold Project. Plant commissioning is expected to commence in Q4, CY20 with first gold production targeted for Q1, CY21. 

Despite the DFS, the Group has assessed that a deferred tax asset for carried forward losses of $280.67 million as at 30 June 2020 

should not be recognised given: (i) the care and maintenance status of the Davyhurst plant assets at balance date; (ii) further losses 

expected to be incurred in the lead up to the restart of production; and (iii) the Group’s history of losses, of which create uncertainty 

as to the extent to which the carried forward losses can and will be utilised.

Trade receivables are recognised initially at the value of the invoice sent to the counterparty and subsequently at the amounts 

considered recoverable (amortised cost). Where there is evidence that the receivable is not recoverable, it is impaired with a 

corresponding change to the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. GST receivable balances are 

recorded initially as the consideration to be received from the federal government, and then subsequently at amortised cost.

Provision for expected credit losses of trade and other receivables

The provision relates to outstanding amounts for shares issued to prior related parties and advances provided to prior related parties 

for the recharges of costs incurred by the Group on behalf of the prior related party arising from prior periods. These amounts are 

disclosed as ‘other receivables’. All related party receivables have been fully provided for based on an expected credit loss rate of 

100%. The assessment of expected credit losses is a significant estimate. The amount of expected credit losses is sensitive to changes 

in circumstances. The Group’s historical credit loss experience may also not be representative of customer’s actual default in the 

future.

Inventories include consumable stores, ore stockpiles, gold in circuit and finished goods (dore). Gold bullion, gold in circuit and ore 

stockpiles are physically measured or estimated and valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost represents the weighted 

average cost and includes direct purchase costs and an appropriate portion of fixed and variable production overhead expenditure, 

including depreciation and amortisation, incurred in converting materials into finished goods.

Net realisable value represents estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less any further costs expected to be 

incurred to completion and disposal.

Consumable stores are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Any provision for obsolescence is determined by reference 

to specific items of stock. A regular review is undertaken to determine the extent of any provision for obsolescence.

Accounting policies and significant judgements

Exploration and evaluation phase

Expenditure on areas of interest in the exploration and evaluation phase are those expenditures incurred in connection with the 

exploration for and evaluation of minerals resources before the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral 

resource are demonstrable. Exploration and evaluation phase assets include the costs of acquiring exploration licenses or exploration 

rights and the fair value (at acquisition date) of exploration and evaluation assets acquired. All other expenditure on areas of interest 

in the exploration and evaluation phase, including all expenditure incurred prior to securing legal rights to explore an area, is 

expensed as incurred.

Capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. An “area of 

interest” is an individual geological area which is considered to constitute a favourable environment for the presence of a mineral 

deposit or has been proved to contain such a deposit. These costs are carried forward only if they relate to an area of interest for 

which rights of tenure are current and where:

•  such costs are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation or from sale of the area; and 

•  exploration and evaluation activities in the area have not, at balance date, reached a stage which permits a reasonable 

assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable resources, and active and significant operations in, or 

relating to, this area are continuing.

A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward capitalised 

costs in relation to the area of interest. If capitalised costs do not meet the criteria noted above, they are written off in full against the 

Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. 

During the year, $4.81 million of costs incurred on areas of interest in the exploration and evaluation phase were expensed to the 

Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income (2019: $1.33 million) as they did not meet the recognition 

criteria noted above. $1.97 million was paid to acquire access to land which the Group capitalised.

Exploration and evaluation assets are transferred to development phase assets once technical feasibility and commercial viability of 

an area of interest is demonstrable. At this stage, exploration and evaluation assets are tested for impairment, and any impairment 

loss is recognised, prior to being reclassified.

Impairment testing of exploration and evaluation assets

Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment if sufficient data exists to determine technical feasibility and 

commercial viability or facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.

Exploration and evaluation assets are tested for impairment when any of the following facts and circumstances exist: 

• 

the term of exploration licence in the specific area of interest has expired during the reporting period or will expire in the near 

future, and is not expected to be renewed;

•  substantive expenditure on further exploration and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area are not budgeted or 

planned;

•  exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area have not led to the discovery of commercially viable 

quantities of mineral resource and the decision was made to discontinue such activities in the specific area; or

•  sufficient data exists to indicate that, although development in the specific area of interest is likely to proceed, the carrying 

amount of the exploration and evaluation asset is unlikely to be recovered in full from successful development or by sale.

When a potential impairment is indicated, an assessment is performed for each cash generating unit which is no larger than the area 

of interest.

57

ORA BANDA MINING LIMITED AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIESACN 100 038 266   ANNUAL REPORT 2020Development phase assets

The Group capitalises expenditure on areas of interest in the development phase only where the following criteria are met:

•  The Group has right of tenure in the area of interest;

•  The expenditure is for the purpose of furthering an already proven mineral resource area; and

•  The expenditure provides future economic benefit by developing the underlying resources to further progress the asset towards 

commercial production.

Development phase assets are transferred to mine properties and mining assets when commercial production is achieved at the area 

of interest.

Impairment testing of assets in the development or production phase

The carrying amounts of assets in the development or production phase are reviewed at each balance date to determine whether 

there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.

The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value-in-use (“VIU”) and its fair value less costs of 

disposal (“FVLCD”). For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the 

smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other 

assets or groups of assets (“cash-generating unit”).

An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. 

Impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.

Impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each balance date for any indications that the loss has decreased or 

no longer exists and therefore should be reversed. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used 

to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not 

exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had initially 

been recognised. Impairment reversals are also recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.

Expenditure in the development phase are assessed in light of current economic conditions. The carrying values of these assets have 

been assessed for impairment or impairment reversal where respective indicators exist using a fair value less cost to sell technique. 

In previous periods, $7.31 million in impairment expense was recorded based on implied market values applied to the Group’s existing 

resource and reserve base at the date of impairment. The implied market values were calculated based on comparable transactions 

within Australia converted to a value per ounce and normalised for changes in gold prices since the date of the transactions observed. 

This technique is considered to use Level 3 inputs. During the current period, the Group observed the following changes to the key 

inputs as previously used in the fair value less cost to sell technique:

• 

Increase in Group resources of 348,000 ounces, representing an increase of 20%;

•  Conversion of Group resources to reserves of 310,000 ounces, representing an increase of 207%; and

• 

Increases in the gold price.

Based on these reversal indicators, the Group determined it was appropriate to reverse all prior period impairment charges recorded 

against capitalised balances in the development phase.

Recoverable amount

The Group has determined the recoverable amount of its mine development phase assets using a fair value less cost of disposal 

approach. The fair value estimates used to determine the recoverable amount are Level 3 fair value measurements, insofar as the 

estimates are derived from valuation techniques that include inputs that are not based on observable market data. In summary,  

an independent expert derived a dollar value per ounce from market transactions involving comparable companies for transactions 

up to August 2019. When the dollar value per ounce was applied to the Group’s updated resource estimates as at 30 June 2020, 

the recoverable amount totalled $47.9 million. This valuation approach is considered consistent with the approach taken by 

market participants. The Group carries its mine development phase assets at the lower of its recoverable amount and its cost less 

accumulated depreciation. As at 30 June 2020, the recoverable amount is in excess of cost less accumulated depreciation.

Exploration expenditure commitments

Exploration expenditure commitments represent tenement rentals and minimum spend requirements that are required to be met 

under the relevant legislation should the Group wish to retain tenure on all its current tenements (refer Note 18).

Mine properties and mining assets

Mine properties represent the acquisition cost and/or accumulated exploration, evaluation and development expenditure in respect 

of areas of interest in which mining has commenced. When commercial production is achieved, capitalised costs in the development 

phase are transferred to mine properties, at which time it is amortised on a unit of production basis based on ounces mined over the 

total estimated reserves and resources related to this area of interest.

Significant factors considered in determining the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the project are the completion of a 

feasibility study, the existence of sufficient resources to proceed with development and approval by the board of directors to proceed 

with development of the project.

Underground development expenditure incurred in respect of mine development after the commencement of production is carried 

forward as part of mine development only when substantial future economic benefits are expected, otherwise this expenditure is 

expensed as incurred.

Reserves and resources

Resources are estimates of the amount of gold product that can be economically extracted from the Group’s mine properties. In 

order to calculate resources, estimates and assumptions are required about a range of geological, technical and economic factors, 

including quantities, grades, production techniques, recovery rates, production costs, future capital requirements, short and long 

term commodity prices and exchange rates.

Estimating the quantity and/or grade of resources requires the size, shape and depth of ore bodies to be determined by analysing 

geological data. This process may require complex and difficult geological judgments and calculations to interpret the data.

The Group determines and reports ore resources under the Australian Code of Reporting for Mineral Resource and Ore Reserves (2004 

and 2012), known as the JORC Code. The JORC Code requires the use of reasonable assumptions to calculate resources. Due to the fact 

that economic assumptions used to estimate resources change from period to period, and geological data is generated during the 

course of operations, estimates of resources may change from period to period. Changes in reported resources may affect the Group’s 

financial results and financial position in a number of ways, including:

•  asset carrying values may be impacted due to changes in estimates of future cash flows;

•  amortisation charged in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income may change where such charges are 

calculated using the units of production basis;  

•  decommissioning, site restoration and environmental provisions may change due to changes in estimated resources after 

expectations about the timing or costs of these activities change; and

• 

recognition of deferred tax assets, including tax losses.

All assets acquired, including property, plant and equipment, are initially recorded at their cost of acquisition being the fair value of 

the consideration provided plus incidental costs directly attributable to the acquisition.

Property, plant and equipment assets located on a mine site are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated 

impairment losses. All such assets are depreciated over the estimated remaining economic life of the mine, using a units-of-

production basis. The cost of certain items of property, plant and equipment has been determined with reference to its fair value, 

detailed in significant judgements below.

All other property, plant and equipment assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. These items 

are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the assets estimated useful life which is three to eight years. Depreciation commences 

from the time the asset is held ready for use.

Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes 

the cost of materials and direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition for its 

intended use, and the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located.  

When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major 

components) of property, plant and equipment. The cost of replacing part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in 

the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Group and 

its cost can be measured reliably. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit or 

loss as incurred.

Impairment testing

Property, plant and equipment is evaluated annually, at 30 June, to determine whether there are any indications of impairment or 

any circumstances justifying the reversal of previously recognised impairment losses. Factors such as changes in assumptions in 

future commodity prices, exchange rates, production rates and input costs, are monitored to assess for indications of impairment or 

reversal of previously recognised impairments. If any such indications of impairment or impairment reversals exist, a formal estimate 

of the recoverable amount is performed. In assessing whether an impairment is required, the carrying value of the asset is compared 

with its recoverable amount, which is the higher of FVLCD and VIU.

As at 30 June 2020, it was assessed that there were no indicators of impairment nor indicators of impairment reversal pertaining to 

property, plant and equipment.

The Group makes full provision for the future cost of rehabilitating mine sites and related production facilities on a discounted basis 

on the development of mines or installation of those facilities.

The rehabilitation provision represents the present value of rehabilitation costs relating to mine sites. These provisions have been 

based on estimates provided by an external consultant. Key inclusions and pertinent matters underpinning the provision are:

•  Provision covers the four project areas, being Carnegie, Siberia, Mt Ida and Heron;

•  Project areas (apart from the Davyhurst gold project site) have undergone limited scale exploration activities and have been on 

care and maintenance;

•  Cost estimates for the four project areas, included actual mining contractor and equipment rates and average industry contracting 

rates;

•  Provision incorporates costs for the demolition and cartage of fixed infrastructure to the nearest nominated waste disposal area;

•  No allowance has been made for decommissioning of assets not owned by the Group but are located on Group owned leases;

•  Rehabilitation costs being incurred over a 5.5 year period;

•  10% (2019: 15%) contingency has been included in the provision calculation; 

•  Allowance has been made within the contingency, for post-closure maintenance and reworking of environmental rehabilitation;

•  Discount rate applied of 0.48%, estimated based on yields of government risk-free bonds; and

• 

Inflation rate of 2%, estimated based on federal government target rates for inflation.

Assumptions, which are based on the current economic environment, have been made which the Company believes are a reasonable 

basis upon which to estimate the future liability. These estimates are reviewed regularly to take into account any material 

changes to the assumptions. However, actual rehabilitation costs will ultimately depend upon future market prices for necessary 

decommissioning works required which will reflect market conditions at the relevant time.

63

ORA BANDA MINING LIMITED AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIESACN 100 038 266   ANNUAL REPORT 2020 
 
 
 
 
 
Accounting policies

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present (legal or constructive) obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that 

the Group will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount 

recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at balance date, taking 

into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. If the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted 

using a current pre-tax rate specific to the liability. The increase in the provision resulting from the passage of time is recognised as a 

finance cost.

Short-term employee benefits

Liabilities for employee benefits for wages, salaries and annual leave represent present obligations resulting from employees’ 

services provided to balance date and are calculated at undiscounted amounts based on remuneration wage and salary rates that the 

Group expects to pay as at balance date including related on-costs.  

Long-term employee benefits

The Group’s net obligation in respect of long-term employee benefits is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned 

in return for their service in the current and prior periods plus related on costs. The benefit is discounted to determine its present 

value using a discount rate that equals the yield at balance date on Australian high-quality corporate bonds that have maturity dates 

approximating the terms of the Group’s obligations.

Rehabilitation costs

Mine rehabilitation costs will be incurred by the Group either while operating, or at the end of the operating life of, the Group’s 

facilities and mine properties. The Group assesses its mine rehabilitation provision at each balance date. The Group recognises a 

rehabilitation provision where it has a legal and constructive obligation as a result of past events, and it is probable that an outflow 

of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. The nature 

of these restoration activities includes dismantling and removing structures; rehabilitating mines and tailings dams; dismantling 

operating facilities; closing plant and waste sites; and restoring, reclaiming and revegetating affected areas.

The obligation generally arises when the asset is installed, or the ground/environment is disturbed at the mining operation’s location. 

When the liability is initially recognised, the present value of the estimated costs is capitalised by increasing the carrying amount of 

the related mining assets to the extent that it was incurred as a result of the development/construction of the mine. 

Additional disturbances that arise due to further development/construction at the mine are recognised as additions or charges to the 

corresponding assets and rehabilitation liability when they occur.

Changes in the estimated timing of rehabilitation or changes to the estimated future costs are dealt with prospectively by recognising 

an adjustment to the rehabilitation liability and a corresponding adjustment to the asset to which it relates, if the initial estimate was 

originally recognised as part of an asset measured in accordance with AASB 116.

Rehabilitation 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 a financing cost. The estimated costs of rehabilitation 

are reviewed annually and adjusted as appropriate for changes in legislation, technology or other circumstances.

Significant judgements 

Provision for rehabilitation

Decommissioning and restoration costs are a normal consequence of mining and much of this expenditure is incurred at the end 

of a mine’s life. In determining an appropriate level of provision, consideration is given to the expected future costs to be incurred, 

the timing of these expected future costs (largely dependent on the life of the mine) and the estimated future level of inflation. The 

ultimate cost of decommissioning and restoration is uncertain, and costs can vary in response to many factors including changes 

to the relevant legal requirements, the emergence of new restoration techniques or experience at other mine sites. The expected 

timing of expenditure can also change, currently proposed to be 2026 (2019: 2025), for example in response to changes in reserves or 

to production rates. Changes to any of the estimates could result in significant changes to the level of provisioning required, which 

would in turn impact future financial results. At 30 June 2020, the provision of $19.1 million (30 June 2019: $16.6 million) represents the 

Company’s best estimate of the rehabilitation costs required.

1.  On 16 August 2019 the Company announced it had received firm commitments for a placement to raise $18.5 million (before costs) via the issue 

of 100,000,000 new fully paid ordinary shares. The placement was undertaken at an issue price of 18.5 cents per fully paid ordinary share and was 
strongly supported both by existing Ora Banda shareholders and new sophisticated investors introducing a number of new institutional shareholders 
to the Company’s register.

Settlement of Tranche 1 of the placement (the issue of approximately 57.6 million new shares) was announced on 26 August 2019. On 15 November 
2019 shareholders approved the issue of approximately 42.4 million new shares to Ora Banda’s major shareholder, Hawke’s Point Holdings 1 Limited 
(Tranche 2 of the placement).

2.  4,565,000 ordinary shares were issued as a result of the exercise of unlisted vested remuneration, incentive and performance options at a nil  

exercise price.

21. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Group’s principal financial assets comprise trade and other receivables and cash that arises directly from its operations.  

The Group’s principal financial liabilities comprise trade payables. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to manage  

cash flow and assist the Group in its daily operational requirements. 

The Group is exposed to the following financial risks in respect to the financial instruments that it held at the end of the year:

• 

Interest rate risk;

•  Liquidity risk; and

•  Credit risk.

The directors have overall responsibility for identifying and managing operational and financial risks.

(a)  Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate as a result of changes  

in market interest rates. 

At balance date, the interest rate profile of the Group’s interest-bearing financial instruments was:

Fixed rate instruments

Lease liabilities

Variable rate instruments

Cash and cash equivalents

30 June 2020 
$’000

30 June 2019 
$’000

392

-

10,577

14,142

An increase/decrease of 1% in the interest rate applicable to the interest-bearing financial instruments at balance date would 

result in an increase/decrease in net loss of $102,000 for the year ended 30 June 2020 (2019: an increase/decrease in net profit  

of $141,000).  This analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant.

(b)  Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group’s approach  

to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due,  

under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation. 

 The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves from funds generated from operations and by 

continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows.

Maturity analysis

The tables below represent the undiscounted contractual settlement terms for financial instruments and management’s 

expectation for settlement of maturities.

(c)  Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading 

to a financial loss. The Group is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade and other receivables). 

Exposure to credit risk associated with its financing activities arising from deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign 

exchange transactions and other financial instruments is not considered to be significant.

Trade and other receivables

Customer credit risk is managed subject to the Group’s established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk 

management. The Group trades only with recognised creditworthy third parties. The Group’s only customer is Perth Mint and at 30 

June 2020, the exposure to credit risk associated with this customer and trade receivables is not significant. The Group has other 

receivables that have been specifically identified as being of significant risk with respect to collection and therefore are included, 

in full, in the expected credit loss.

An impairment analysis is performed at each balance date using a provision matrix to measure expected credit losses. The 

provision rates are based on days past due for groupings of various customer segments with similar loss pattern. The calculation 

reflects the probability weighted outcome, the time value of money and reasonable and supportable information that is available 

at balance date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.

The maximum exposure to credit risk for trade and other receivables at the balance date is the carrying value of each class of 

financial assets disclosed in Note 7. The Group does not hold collateral as security.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Group limits its exposure to credit risk by only investing in liquid securities and only with major Australian financial 

institutions.

(d)  Fair values versus carrying values

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables and trade and other payables is considered to be a 

fair approximation of their fair values.

The ultimate holding company of the Group is Ora Banda Mining Limited, which is based in Western Australia and listed on the 

Australian Securities Exchange.

Accounting policies

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity 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. The financial 

statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the 

date that control ceases.   

23.   CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

The Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries are parties to various proceedings in the Wardens Court pursuant to which third 

parties are seeking to challenge its title to various mining tenements by way of forfeiture and other proceedings. The Group has legal 

representation in respect of these plaints. The directors do not believe the plaints have a reasonable prospect of success and the 

plaints will be vigorously defended by the Group.

A total of 40,046,782 options were on issue at 30 June 2020 and have not been accounted for in the above diluted earnings per share 

calculations as the Group is in a loss position. A total of 44,433,913 options were on issue at 30 June 2019 and have not been accounted 

for in the above diluted earnings per share calculations as they had exercise prices greater than the average market price of ordinary 

shares during the year and were therefore considered anti-dilutive. 

Accounting policies

Basic EPS is calculated as profit attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company divided by the weighted average number of 

ordinary shares.  

Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary 

shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, including options granted to employees. 

26.   SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

Equity-settled share-based payments are provided to directors, employees, consultants and other advisors. The issue to each 

individual director, employees, consultant or advisor is controlled by the board and ASX Listing Rules. Terms and conditions of the 

payments are determined by the board, subject to approval where required.

During the year ended 30 June 2020, a share-based payment expense of $1,663,000 (30 June 2019: $145,000) was recognised in the 

Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income and $Nil (30 June 2019: $242,000) was recognised as a

The measure of volatility used in the option pricing model is the annualised standard deviation of the continuously compounded rates 

of return on the historical TSR of Ora Banda and each constituent of the peer group for the length of time equal to the measurement 

period. The recent volatilities of the constituents of the peer group and Ora Banda (using comparable companies) was calculated over 

a one, two and three-year period.

Accounting policies

The grant date fair value of equity-settled share-based payment awards granted to employees is generally recognised as an expense, 

with a corresponding increase in equity, over the vesting period of the awards. The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to 

reflect the number of awards for which the related service and non-market performance conditions are expected to be met, such 

that the amount ultimately recognised is based on the number of awards that meet the related service and non-market performance 

conditions at the vesting date. For share-based payment awards with non-vesting conditions, the grant date fair value of the share-

based payment is measured to reflect such conditions and there is no true-up for differences between expected and actual outcomes.

27.   EVENTS AFTER BALANCE DATE

On 3 July 2020 the Company announced a $55 million equity capital raising comprising an institutional placement to raise 

approximately $40 million and a 1 for 9 Accelerated Non-Renounceable Entitlement Offer to raise approximately $15 million over two 

tranches. The first tranche was completed on 29 July 2020, and the second tranche was completed on 9 September 2020.

Apart from the above, no other matters have arisen since the end of the financial year that impact or are likely to impact the results of 

the Group in subsequent financial periods.

(d)  Deed of cross guarantee

 Ora Banda Mining Limited and the following entities are parties to a deed of cross guarantee (which was executed on 26 June  

2018 and lodged with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission) under which each Company guarantees the debts  

of the others:

•  Monarch Nickel Pty Limited;

•  Carnegie Gold Pty Limited;

•  Siberia Mining Corporation Pty Limited;

•  Mt Ida Gold Operations Pty Limited;

• 

Ida Gold Operations Pty Limited;

•  Pilbara Metals Pty Limited;

•  Siberia Gold Operations Pty Limited; and

•  Mt Ida Gold Pty Limited.

By entering into the deed, the wholly owned entities have been relieved from the requirement to prepare financial statements  

and a directors’ report under Corporations Instrument 2016/785 issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission.

The above companies represent a “Closed Group” for the purposes of the Corporations Instrument, and as there are no other parties 

to the deed of cross guarantee that are controlled by Ora Banda Mining Limited, they also represent the “Extended Closed Group”. 

As the Extended Closed Group includes all material subsidiaries of Ora Banda Mining Limited, there is no difference between the 

Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income and Consolidated Statement of Financial Position of the 

Ora Banda Mining Limited consolidated entity and the Extended Closed Group.

ORA BANDA MINING LIMITED AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIESACN 100 038 266   ANNUAL REPORT 2020Development phase assets ($42.869 million) Refer to Note 9 to the Financial Report The key audit matter How the matter was addressed in our audit Existence, accuracy and valuation of expenditure capitalised as development phase assets was considered to be a key audit matter. Assets in the development phase of $42.869 million represent 60% of total assets as at 30 June 2020. During the period, the Group capitalised $8.554 million of development phase expenditure. In response to increases in the Group’s mineral resource estimates and the market price of gold, the Group reversed impairment charges recorded in previous periods of $7.311 million. Development phase assets are to be recorded using AASB 116 Property, Plant and Equipment. The standard prescribes that an expenditure shall be recognised as an asset if, and only if:  a)it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the entity; and b)the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The Group uses judgements and estimates in: •the design and application of its accounting policies to identify and allocate expenditure between operating loss and assets, using AASB 116; and •identifying impairment reversal indicators and determining the quantum of any reversal. The existence of management judgments and estimates and the significance of the balance in the Group’s Statement of Financial Position has resulted in our conclusion that this is a key audit matter. Our procedures included: •We assessed the Group’s accounting policy by comparing it to AASB 116; •On a sample basis, we tested the allocation of expenditure to development phase assets by inspecting source documents and examining evidence underlying the allocation for consistency with the features contained in AASB 116; •We evaluated the Group’s assertion as to the presence of impairment reversal indicators. We compared the indicators to those in the accounting standards.  We challenged the identification of the key indicators, being increased mineral resource estimates and increases to the gold price, against published consensus market prices and the Group’s mineral resource estimation from its publically available Definitive Feasibility Study; •We challenged the quantum of the impairment reversal by analysing the key indicators mentioned previously, as to their impact on the calculation of the recoverable amount.  In addition, we evaluated the market comparable transactions used by the Group in the calculation of the recoverable amount against our industry knowledge;  •We assessed the competence, objectivity and scope of the Group’s internal expert involved in the estimation process of mineral resources;   •We checked features of the Definitive Feasibility Study prepared by the expert underpinning the calculation of the recoverable amount for consistency with our knowledge of the areas of interest, and the authority of the report; and •We evaluated the adequacy of disclosures in the financial report against the requirements of the accounting standards.  I N D E P E N D E N T   A U D I T O R ’ S   R E P O R T

ORA BANDA MINING LIMITED AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIESACN 100 038 266   ANNUAL REPORT 2020Other Information Other Information is financial and non-financial information in Ora Banda Mining Limited’s annual reporting which is provided in addition to the Financial Report and the Auditor’s Report. The Directors are responsible for the Other Information. Our opinion on the Financial Report does not cover the Other Information and, accordingly, we do not and will not express an audit opinion or any form of assurance conclusion thereon, with the exception of the Remuneration Report and our related assurance opinion. In connection with our audit of the Financial Report, our responsibility is to read the Other Information. In doing so, we 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. We are required to report if we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this Other Information, and based on the work we have performed on the Other Information that we obtained prior to the date of this Auditor’s Report we have nothing to report. Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report The Directors are responsible for: •preparing the Financial Report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 •implementing necessary internal control to enable the preparation of a Financial Report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error •assessing the Group and Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and whether the use of the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate. This includes disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless they either intend to liquidate the Group and 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 objective is: •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 Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. They 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. A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report is located at the Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website at: https://www.auasb.gov.au/admin/file/content102/c3/ar1_2020.pdf.
