Chairman’s Letter to Shareholders
Chairman’s Letter to Shareholders
Dear Fellow Shareholder,
On behalf of the Board of Directors of Platina, I take pleasure in presenting the Annual Report for 2017.
The principal focus of Platina has been in advancing the Company’s Owendale Scandium, Cobalt, Nickel and Platinum
Project in central New South Wales, Australia.
During the year, the Company successfully raised some $7.1 million to fast-track completion of a Pre-Feasibility Study
(PFS), a significant achievement in what, at times, had been a challenging capital market.
The PFS was successfully completed in Q2 2017 and revealed robust scandium-cobalt-nickel project economics with an
identified average annual production target of 42 tonnes of scandium oxide after 2 year ramp up and a long mine life
with 21 years of initially high grade (610 ppm Sc) and a further 23 years of stockpile feed at moderate (500ppm Sc)
grade.
Additionally, work at Owendale has shown the new Mineral Resource estimate to position Owendale as the largest
and highest-grade scandium, cobalt and platinum deposit so far reported.
Platina is now progressing with examination of a number of options for future scandium oxide commercialisation,
including evaluation of possible pilot plant production and this will also involve investigating ways to vary the amount
of scandium oxide production to smaller amounts in the earlier years of mining and increasing production as the
market develops.
Platina retains full ownership of the Skaergaard project in Greenland and with recent improvements in Gold, Platinum
and Palladium prices, Platina remains focussed on ensuring shareholder value can be achieved from this project.
I would also like to mention the efforts over the past 12 months by our CEO Rob Mosig, our staff and technical team,
who have worked tirelessly to advance the Owendale project.
I would also like to thank our former Chairman Reg Gillard who retired on 1 January 2017 for his contribution to
Platina over many years and wish him well in his retirement.
On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank you for your support of the Company and I look forward to bringing you
further news as our development, marketing and exploration efforts continue.
Yours faithfully
Brian Moller
Chairman

Review of material changes
Platina undertook the first Mineral Resource update since 2013 in July 2016. This minor update included previous
drilling not previously assessed that was included in the 2016 Annual Report and is summarized in Table 2.
Subsequently Platina has reported two further Mineral Resource updates. The first in February 2017 incorporated
increases in scandium, nickel and cobalt grade derived from reassaying results and replacing the preferred assay
method following quality assurance assessments that incorporated assaying by neutron activation techniques. This
helped to confirm that current XRF analysis is reliable and that previous assaying ICP is biased low. It is noted that
much of the Mineral Resource still relies on ICP scandium analyses, which potentially understate the scandium
content.
A Mineral Resource drilling program was undertaken in 2017 targeting the proposed development area to significantly
upgrade the Mineral Resource classification, as well as collect other feasibility study data. The program was successful
and resulted in areas with thicker and higher grade scandium than previously predicted. The Mineral Resource was
updated in August 2017 with material improvements in average grade, increased tonnage and higher classification
(Table 1).
4 | PLATINA RESOURCES LIMITED Annual Report 2017
Annual Mineral Resources and Reserves Statement
The current Mineral Resource in Table 1 compared to that reported in the 2016 Annual Report (Table 2) shows a 30%
increase in total tonnage, a 35 % increase in scandium metal and an 80% increase in the Mineral Resource classified as
Measured or Indicated.
These improvements warranted the PFS results to be followed up with an update of the mine planning work. The
classification of all scheduled material allowed a maiden Ore Reserve to be prepared (Table 1).
Governance and Internal Controls
Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve statements for Platina during the last year for the Owendale project have been
undertaken by suitably qualified independent consultants each with over 30 years or relevant experience.
Sampling at Owendale used Aircore drilling which proved to have superior sample recovery compared to RC drilling.
All sampling was over 1 m regular intervals using standard riffle splitting sub sampling methods and commercial
laboratory sample preparation and assaying methods. Platina has pioneered new XRF assaying method in 2016
undertaking a comprehensive assaying quality assurance process to determine the suitability of XRF for the assaying of
scandium. ALS laboratories, a certified commercial laboratory with significant in-house QAQC expertise, have been
used for all primary assaying. ALS has worked closely with Platina to develop and test scandium assaying method
accuracy.
Assay batches continued use of in-house high grade scandium standards used throughout all of Platina drilling
programs as well as a number of other commercial certified reference materials. Extensive reassaying work has
allowed Platina to recalibrate its in-house standards using XRF and robust neutron activation techniques, which have
allowed the development of a reliable understanding of previous assay biases by older scandium assaying methods.
Drilling was undertaken by an exploration services company and a geological logging and sampling overseen by their
specialist laterite geologist. They also undertook accurate Differential Global Positioning System (“DGPS”) surveying of
the collars during the drilling program. All drilling was immediately back filled and rehabilitated after drilling.
Drilling include regular quality assurance samples with blanks, field duplicates and standards submitted blind to the
laboratory. Post assaying check samples are submitted and final assessments are in progress.
Platina maintains strong QAQC controls across all resource related work. Particular emphasis and considerable work
has been spent on deriving a more accurate assaying method for scandium
Platina have engaged a database management company, Maxwell Geoservices, to maintain their drill hole database in
Datashed and Microsoft Access.
Platina is yet to fully integrate the Helix data into their database as additional data entry and validation has been
progressively undertaken. Platina maintain their own drilling data to an acceptable standard incorporating QAQC data
and using external expertise.
Resource and reserve estimates were calculated by independent third parties (Owendale Mineral Resource by ResEval
Pty Ltd; Owendale Reserve by Measured Group Pty Ltd) and reported under JORC reporting frameworks. Various
visual and statistical checks were made to validate the results.

OWENDALE, NSW – SCANDIUM, COBALT, NICKEL AND PLATINUM PROJECT
Platina Resources Ltd 100% - EL7644
Project Summary
▪ World’s largest and highest-grade laterite-hosted scandium, cobalt, nickel, platinum deposit
▪ Positive Prefeasibility Study (PFS)
▪ Highest grade scandium and cobalt development opportunity
The Owendale Project is in central New South Wales, approximately 80km northwest of Parkes and 350km west of
Sydney (Figure 1). Owendale is one of the world’s highest-grade scandium deposits, and has potential to be Australia’s
first scandium producer with platinum, cobalt and nickel credits. Mineralisation is associated with the Owendale
Intrusive Complex, the majority of which is within the Company’s 100%-owned Exploration Licence.
Owendale is located only 7km north east of Clean TeQ Energy’s Syerston Scandium Project, which is the most
analogous project given its similar size and grade.
Figure 1: Owendale Project location
A PFS, released in July 2017, confirmed robust economics for Owendale and significant economic potential of the
scandium development option with low capex and fast payback.
The PFS highlights a simple, free dig open-pit mining operation, which will mine approximately 50,000 dry tonnes of
ore per annum for treatment and concentration off site to produce 42 tonnes of scandium oxide at 99.9% purity. Ore
will be mined in advance and stockpiled for blending and road transport to the process facility off-site. The PFS
considers a processing plant utilising a simple crushing and grinding circuit followed by a high-pressure acid leaching
circuit. Final processing of the scandium ore is carried out using solvent extraction, precipitation and filtration.
Owendale contains significant cobalt, allowing for viable production of cobalt as an important by-product. The current
PFS considered the recovery of cobalt, and higher cobalt has been targeted for initial production whilst maintaining

The PFS is based on a portion of the Owendale North deposit, with additional Mineral Resources not included in the
PFS offering both a long-term mining proposition and scope to expand annual production as the global scandium
market develops.
The Measured, Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource Estimation for the Owendale Scandium and Platinum Project
in Table 2 is reported in accordance with the JORC Code (2012).
Platina updated the Mineral Resource estimate in February 2017. A new Mineral Resource estimate and maiden Ore
Reserve was completed for Owendale subsequent to year end. The Mineral Resource estimate incorporated data
from the 3,792m drilling program completed in June 2017 and the results from a re-assaying program of historical
drilling.

The maiden Ore Reserve underpins the positive project economics including an optimized, mine schedule of an initial
35 years of high grade feed (HG, >550 ppm Sc), including an initial 5 years of high grade cobalt (0.18% Co head grade)
recovered as a by-product.
Platina completed an additional Mineral Resource estimate focusing on cobalt for the Owendale project with the
review undertaken in light of growing global demand for cobalt for industrial purposes. Owendale contains significant
cobalt mineralisation, which is expected to be extracted using similar pressure acid leach processing methods to what
is utilised for scandium. The Owendale cobalt Mineral Resource (Table 4) provides compelling evidence that
Owendale’s unique cobalt mineralisation, which is associated with the highest recorded scandium contents from a
laterite, will provide excellent financial credits in any potential future mining operation.

*Scandium is typically sold as Scandia or Scandium Oxide (Sc2O3) product and is calculated from scandium metal
content and a 1.53 factor to convert to the oxide form
ResEval Pty Ltd prepared the updated resource estimates with an emphasis on scandium as part of Platina’s planning
process for its PFS. The updated Mineral Resource estimate is consistent with the methodology adopted for the
resource estimate provided in the previous Annual Report. Changes to the estimate area are as a result of:
• Addition of 705 re-assayed Platina drill holes with updated results for Sc, Ni and Co.
•
The use of previous XRF results for Platina 2011 drilling and assaying for 9,061 samples with updated
results for Ni and Co.
• Addition of 136 new assayed aircore, reverse circulation and diamond drill holes for 3,792 m from the
April/June 2017 program completed with the intention to upgrade the Mineral Resource in the key
Owendale North development focus area to Measured and Indicated category and include some
exploration and extension drilling.
The resource estimate is essentially based on the scandium results from Platina drilling completed between 2010 and
2014 (mostly RC and some diamond core) and some reassayed older diamond core, for a total of 338 drill holes and 16
288 samples. Other older drilling with limited geochemistry has only been used to help inform Inferred Mineral
Resource areas.
A comparison of the statement provided in July 2016 and current Mineral Resource statement at the 300 ppm Sc cut-
off indicated a 30% increase in the size of the scandium Mineral Resource to 33.7 Mt at a 300 ppm cut-off level (up
from 25.9 Mt), and a 4% increase in scandium grade to 395 ppm (up from 380 ppm).
Of most significance is the high-grade scandium Mineral Resource at a 600 ppm cut-off level, which has increased
152% to 1.54 Mt @ 675 ppm Sc (up from 0.61 Mt @ 557 ppm Sc in July 2016).
Platina has a dual-track work program which will progress the scandium development option for its 100% owned
Owendale project as well as investigate the cobalt potential.

PLATINA RESOURCES LIMITED Annual Report 2017 | 9
Project Development
As part of the PFS, the Company completed a preliminary environmental impact study, considering the Mine Site, the
transportation route between the Mine Site and the Processing Site, and the Processing Site. Environmental baseline
studies have been initiated at Owendale in preparation for the commencement of an environmental and social impact
assessment (ESIA) and mining lease application.
Positive metallurgical testing results were also returned during the PFS. The results successfully demonstrated that a
standard Pressure Acid Leach (“PAL”) process could dissolve the scandium (93%), cobalt (>97%) and nickel (>97%)
using 90 minute trials. These strong recoveries using a proven and patented process gave Platina confidence to
process quickly with further feasibility studies. Platina also conducted preliminary solvent extraction test work to
recover scandium from leach solution. So far excellent test results have been received with up to 99.3% extraction of
scandium from leach solution reported.
The Company is simultaneously seeking to secure binding offtake agreements for the supply of scandium oxide and
scandium based alloy metals from Owendale and to continue discussions with marketing partners to progress the
scandium commercialisation opportunity. Negotiations remain ongoing with multiple parties throughout the world.
Platina’s Owendale Project has great potential to become a dominant producer of scandium due to a number of
favourable characteristics of the project including its shallow depth allowing open pit mining and appreciable
Platinum, Cobalt and Nickel credits. In fact, the updated August 2017 Mineral Resource and the maiden Ore Reserve
position the Owendale Project as the largest and highest-grade scandium and cobalt development discovered, and has
potential to be Australia’s first scandium producer with platinum, cobalt and nickel credits.
SKAERGAARD, GREENLAND – GOLD AND PGM PROJECT
Platina Resources Ltd 100% - EL2007/01
Project Summary
▪ One of the World’s largest undeveloped gold deposits
▪ One of the largest palladium resources outside South Africa and Russia
No work was carried out at Skaergaard during the year other than maintenance of the camp.
The Skaergaard Gold & PGM Project is located on the East Coast of Greenland, approximately 400km west of Iceland
(Figure 2). It is one of the world’s largest undeveloped gold and palladium resources, and has an Indicated and
Inferred Mineral Resource estimate reported in accordance with the JORC Code (2012) of 203Mt @ 0.88g/t gold &
1.33g/t palladium at a 1 g/t gold equivalent (AuEq) cut-off grade and minimum mining thickness of 1.0m.
Mineralisation at Skaergaard is hosted in a layered intrusion, geologically akin to South Africa’s Bushveld Complex,
which hosts the majority of the world’s platinum group metals. More than 80% of the world’s palladium supply is
currently mined in South Africa and in Russia. However, the resource estimate completed for Skaergaard in 2013
confirmed the project, and Greenland, have one of the world’s largest palladium resources outside of these latter
regions. The Mineral Resource at Skaergaard includes both the Indicated and Inferred categories which have a
combined total of 5.7 million ounces of gold and 8.7 million ounces of palladium and 0.79 million ounces of platinum
confined within three reefs (H0, H3 and H5) of the Triple Group, which is the major location for all the gold and
platinum group metals (pgm) mineralisation within the Skaergaard Intrusion.
Mineralisation outcrops at surface, and extends to at least 1.1km vertical depth and more than 35,000m of diamond
drilling has been completed. Additional infill drilling is likely to increase the quantity of contained metal at Skaergaard.
In particular, the northern extent of the Skaergaard Intrusion shows excellent exploration potential.
Metallurgical test work identified that the unique properties of Skaergaard ore are amenable to gravity and flotation
processes, achieving excellent recoveries from both techniques. With the addition of a small leach circuit, it is
conceptually possible to produce gold ore on site. The implications of this are significant as it could allow for year-
round exports via light aircraft, rather than shipping a concentrate during the relatively short ice-free window that
occurs on the east coast of Greenland. Preliminary results are also encouraging in terms of titanomagnetite and
ilmenite recovery, demonstrating that those minerals are upgradable by a combination of magnetic separation and
flotation.
The Company maintains its own 20-person exploration camp at Skaergaard which also includes an airstrip, and

REVIEW OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
Capital structure
In March 2017, 52,825,000 ordinary shares were issued at a price of $0.135 per share, raising $7,131,375 in
capital pursuant to a private placement. During the financial year, a number of changes took place to the
Company’s incentive securities as follows:
• On 8 July 2016, 2,000,000 shares were issued to Robert Mosig as a result of exercise of performance
rights upon satisfaction of the required performance hurdles. On 14 November 2016, 1,000,000
performance rights were issued to Robert Mosig following receipt of shareholder approval at the
Annual General Meeting. 350,000 performance rights were also issued on this date to an external
consultant. On 13 January 2017, 350,000 ordinary shares were issued to the consultant following the
exercise of those performance rights upon achieving the performance hurdles as determined by the
Board. On 13 January 2017, 750,000 ordinary shares were issued following the exercise of 750,000
performance rights by two consultants upon achieving the performance hurdles as determined by the
Board.
• 1,000,000 Unlisted options exercisable at $0.10 expired unexercised on 26 November 2016.
• On 2 May 2017, 11,000,000 unlisted options were issued to directors and officers of the Company,
following approval by shareholders in April 2017. Also, 6,000,000 unlisted options were issued as a
partial fee in relation to the capital raising in March 2017.
At 30 June 2017, the Company had 264,126,235 ordinary shares, 17,000,000 unlisted options (exercisable at
$0.20 each) and 2,500,000 performance rights on issue. As at the date of this report, the number and class of
securities on issue remains unchanged from that at 30 June 2017 apart from the issue of 1,000,000
performance rights to a consultant to the Company in September 2017.
Financial position
The net assets of the Group have increased by $6.3M from $23.3M at June 2016 to $29.6M at June 2017 due
largely to the following factors:
Increase in cash from capital raisings; and
▪
▪ Capitalised exploration expenditure; partly offset by
▪ Operating losses (corporate and administration costs)
The consolidated entity’s working capital, being current assets less current liabilities has increased from $3.1M
in June 2016 to $7.4M in June 2017.
Directors’ Report
PLATINA RESOURCES LIMITED Annual Report 2017 | 15
Treasury policy
The consolidated entity does not have a formally established treasury function. The Board is responsible for
managing the consolidated entity’s finance facilities. The Group does not currently undertake hedging of any
kind and is minimally exposed to currency risks.
Liquidity and funding
The consolidated entity has sufficient funds to finance its operations and exploration activities, and to allow
the consolidated entity to take advantage of favourable business opportunities, not specifically budgeted for,
or to fund unforeseen expenditure.
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE STATE OF AFFAIRS
There were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group in the financial year except as disclosed in
this financial report.
AFTER BALANCE DATE EVENTS
No matter or circumstance has arisen since the end of the financial year, to the date of this report, that has
significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the operations of the Group, the results of those operations,
or the state of affairs of the Group in future financial years.
LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS, EXPECTED RESULTS, PROSPECTS AND BUSINESS STRATEGIES
Likely developments in the operations of the Group and the expected results of those operations in
subsequent financial years have been discussed where appropriate in the Annual Report under Review of
Operations.
There are no further developments of which the Directors are aware which could be expected to affect the
results of the Group’s operations in subsequent financial years.
Business Results
The prospects of the Group in progressing their exploration projects in Australia and Greenland may be
affected by a number of factors. These factors are similar to most exploration companies moving through
exploration phase and attempting to get projects into development. Some of these factors include:
▪
Exploration - the results of the exploration activities may be such that the estimated resources are
insufficient to justify the financial viability of the projects. Platina Resources undertakes extensive
exploration and product quality testing prior to establishing JORC compliant resource estimates and
to (ultimately) support mining feasibility studies. The Group engages external experts to assist with
the evaluation of exploration results and relies on third party competent persons to prepare JORC
resource statements. Economic feasibility modelling of projects will be conducted in conjunction with
third party experts and the results of which will usually be subject to independent third party peer
review.
▪ Regulatory and Sovereign - the Group operates in Australia and Greenland and deals with local
regulatory authorities in relation to the exploration of its properties. The Group may not achieve the
required local regulatory approvals to continue exploration or properly assess development
prospects. The Group takes appropriate legal and technical advice to ensure it manages its
compliance obligations appropriately.
▪
Social Licence to Operate – the ability of the Group to secure and undertake exploration and
development activities within prospective areas is also reliant upon satisfactory resolution of native
title and (potentially) overlapping tenure. To address this risk, the Group develops strong, long term
effective relationships with landholders with a focus on developing mutually acceptable access
16 | PLATINA RESOURCES LIMITED Annual Report 2017
Directors’ Report
arrangements. The Group takes appropriate legal and technical advice to ensure it manages its
compliance obligations appropriately. Mining tenements that the Group currently holds, or has
applied for, are subject to Native Title claims. The Group has a policy that is respectful of the Native
Title rights and is continuing to negotiate with relevant indigenous bodies.
▪
▪
▪
Environmental - All phases of mining and exploration present environmental risks and hazards.
Platina’s operations in Australia and Greenland are subject to environmental regulation pursuant to a
variety of state and municipal laws and regulations. Environmental legislation provides for, among
other things, restrictions and prohibitions on spills, releases or emissions of various substances
produced in association with mining operations. Compliance with such legislation can require
significant expenditures and a breach may result in the imposition of fines and penalties, some of
which may be material. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner expected to result in stricter
standards and enforcement, larger fines and liability and potentially increased capital expenditures
and operating costs. Environmental assessments of proposed projects carry a heightened degree of
responsibility for companies and directors, officers and employees. The Group assesses each of its
projects very carefully with respect to potential environmental issues, in conjunction with specific
environmental regulations applicable to each project, prior to commencing field exploration. Periodic
reviews are undertaken once field exploration commences.
Safety - Safety is of critical importance in the planning, organisation and execution of Platina
Resources exploration activities. Platina Resources is committed to providing and maintaining a
working environment in which its employees are not exposed to hazards that will jeopardise an
employee’s health, safety or the health and safety of others associated with our business. Platina
Resources recognise that safety is both an individual and shared responsibility of all employees,
contractors and other persons involved with the operation of the organisation. The Group has a
comprehensive Safety and Health Management system, which is designed to minimise the risk of an
uncontrolled safety and health event and to continuously improving safety culture within the
organisation.
Funding - the Group will require additional funding to continue exploration and potentially move from
the exploration phase to the development phases of its projects. There is no certainty that the Group
will have access to available financial resources sufficient to fund its exploration, feasibility or
development costs at those times. The Group has no material financial commitments.
▪ Market - there are numerous factors involved with exploration and early stage development of its
projects, including variance in commodity price and labour costs, which can result in projects being
uneconomical.
ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS
The Group’s operations are subject to significant environmental regulation under the law of the Australian
Commonwealth and State and of Greenland. The Group has a policy of complying with its environmental
obligations and at the date of this report, is not aware of any breach of such regulations.

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)
This report outlays the remuneration arrangements in place for the Key Management Personnel (as defined
under section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001) of Platina Resources Limited. The information provided in
this remuneration report has been audited as required by section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act 2001.
The following were key management personnel of the consolidated entity at any time during the year and
unless otherwise indicated were key management personnel for the year:
Details of Key Management Personnel
(i)
Directors
Brian Moller
Robert Mosig
Christopher Hartley
Reginald Gillard
Non-Executive Director to 31 December 2016, Non-Executive Chairman
from 1 January 2017
Managing Director
Non-Executive Director – appointed 1 January 2017
Non-Executive Chairman – resigned 1 January 2017
There have been no other changes of Key Management Personnel after the reporting date and up to the date
the financial report was authorised for issue.
Remuneration philosophy
The Board reviews the remuneration packages applicable to the executive Director and non-executive
Directors on an annual basis. The broad remuneration policy is to ensure the remuneration package properly
reflects the person’s duties and responsibilities and level of performance and that remuneration is competitive
in attracting, retaining and motivating people of the highest quality. Independent advice on the
appropriateness of remuneration packages is obtained, where necessary, although no such independent
advice was sought during the financial year.
Remuneration is not linked to past company performance but rather towards generating future shareholder
wealth through share price performance. As a minerals explorer, the Company does not generate operating
revenues or earnings and company performance, at this stage, can only be judged by exploration success and
ultimately shareholder value. Market capitalisation is one measure of shareholder value but this is subject to
many external factors over which the Company has no control. Consequently linking remuneration to past
performance is difficult to implement and not in the best interests of the Company. Presently, total fixed
remuneration for senior executives is determined by reference to market conditions and incentives for out-
performance are provided by way of options or performance rights over unissued shares. The Directors
believe that this best aligns the interests of the shareholders with those of the senior executives.
All remuneration paid to key management personnel is valued at cost to the Group and charged to the profit
and loss account as an expense or capitalised as part of exploration expenditure as appropriate. Shares given
to directors and executives are valued as the difference between the market price of those shares and the
amount paid by the director or executive. Options and performance rights are valued using the Black-Scholes
methodology. There are no schemes for retirement benefits other than statutory superannuation for
executive directors.
Remuneration committee
During the current financial year, it was decided that, given the size and scale of the Company’s operations,
the full Board would undertake the roles previously undertaken by the Remuneration Committee. The Board
is considered to have sufficient legal, corporate, commercial and industry experience in the context of the
Company’s affairs to properly assess the remuneration issues required by the Group.
18 | PLATINA RESOURCES LIMITED Annual Report 2017
Directors’ Report
REMUNERATION REPORT (audited)
The Board assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amount of remuneration of Directors and senior
managers on a periodical basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions with the overall
objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality board and
management team.
Remuneration structure
In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of non-executive Directors and executive
Director remuneration is separate and distinct.
Non-executive Directors remuneration
Objective
The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level which provides the Company with the ability to
attract and retain directors of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost which is acceptable to shareholders.
Structure
The Constitution and the ASX Listing Rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of non-executive Directors
shall be determined from time to time by a general meeting. An amount not exceeding the amount
determined is then divided between the directors as agreed. The present limit of approved aggregate
remuneration is $250,000 per year.
The Board reviews the remuneration packages applicable to the non-executive Directors on an annual basis.
The Board considers fees paid to non-executive directors of comparable companies when undertaking the
annual review process.
The appointment conditions of the non-executive Chairman, Mr Moller and non-executive Director Dr Hartley
are formalised in service agreements. Both non-executive Directors have contracts for service. Under the
Constitution of the Group, these appointments, if not terminated sooner, end on the date of retirement by
rotation. The Constitution requires one third of Directors retire each year at a general meeting of
shareholders. If re-elected at future general meetings of shareholders, the appointments continue for further
terms.
It has been agreed that Dr Hartley shall receive a fee of $50,000 plus statutory superannuation per annum
effective from his appointment date. Mr Moller was entitled to a fee of $51,000 per annum as a non-executive
Director up to 31 December 2016 and from 1 January 2017, upon his appointment as Chairman, is entitled to a
fee of $57,800 per annum. Mr Gillard, in his role as Chairman up to his resignation on 1 January 2017 was
entitled to a fee of $57,800 per annum (inclusive of superannuation). Non-executive Directors may also be
remunerated for additional specialised services performed at the request of the Board.
The remuneration of the non-executive Directors for the year ending 30 June 2017 and 30 June 2016 is
detailed in Table 1 of this report.
Executive Directors remuneration
Objective
The Company aims to reward the Managing Director with a level of remuneration commensurate with his
position and responsibilities within the Company and so as to:
• align the interests of the Managing Director with those of shareholders;
• link reward with the strategic goals and performance of the Company; and
• ensure total remuneration is competitive by market standards.
Directors’ Report
PLATINA RESOURCES LIMITED Annual Report 2017 | 19
REMUNERATION REPORT (audited)
Structure
Remuneration consists of the following key elements:
• Fixed remuneration
• Variable remuneration
Fixed remuneration
The level of fixed remuneration is set so as to provide a base level of remuneration that is both appropriate to
the position and is competitive in the market.
Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Board and the process consists of a review of companywide,
business unit and individual performance, relevant comparative remuneration in the market and internal and,
where appropriate, external advice on policies and practice.
Mr Mosig renewed his employment agreement with Platina Resources Limited in November 2016 as the
Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer on the same terms and conditions as the previous agreement,
except that it is now a permanent term contract rather than a fixed term contract. Details of the employment
agreement with Mr Mosig are as follows:

lieu of notice)
Executive Director remuneration for the year ending 30 June 2017 and 30 June 2016 is detailed in Table 1 of
this report.
Variable remuneration – Long Term Incentive (‘LTI’)
Objective
The objective of the LTI plan is to reward executives and senior managers in a manner that aligns this element
of remuneration with the creation of shareholder wealth.
As such LTI grants are only made to executives who are able to influence the generation of shareholder wealth
and thus have a direct impact on the Group’s performance.
Structure
LTI grants to Key Management Personnel are delivered in the form of options and performance rights. The
issue of options / performance rights as part of the remuneration packages of executive and non-executive
directors is an established practice of junior public listed companies and, in the case of the Company, has the
benefit of conserving cash whilst properly rewarding each of the directors.

REMUNERATION REPORT (audited)
Performance Rights Plan (PRP)
Shareholders approved the Company’s PRP at the Annual General Meeting held on 27 November 2015. The
PRP is designed to provide a framework for competitive and appropriate remuneration so as to retain and
motivate skilled and qualified personnel whose personal rewards are aligned with the achievement of the
Company’s growth and strategic objectives.
Employee Option Incentive Plan (“EOIP”)
Shareholders last approved the Platina Resources Limited EOIP at the General Meeting on 28 April 2017. The
EOIP is designed to provide incentives, assist in the recruitment, reward and retention of employees or key
consultants. Participation in the plan is at the Board’s discretion and no individual has a contractual right to
participate in the plan or receive any guaranteed benefit.

The 2017 options have a market vesting condition being a daily volume weighted average share price of at least $0.25
over a period of at least 10 trading days.
Fair value of options granted
The fair values at grant date of options issued are determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes
into account the exercise price, the term of the options, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and
expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the
term of the options. The model inputs for options granted included:

Tranche 1 - 2 million Performance Rights vest upon the placement of a parcel of shares in the order of 30 million
shares with a share price in excess of the current share price of $0.06. The Test Date was 30 June 2016. On 8 July
2016, 2 million ordinary shares were issued to Mr Mosig following conversion of 2 million Performance Rights that
vested upon meeting the Performance Hurdle.
Tranche 2 - 1.5 million Performance Rights vest upon the receipt of funds or a contractual obligation by a third party
to fund a feasibility study costing approximately $3,000,000 to $4,000,000. The Test Date was 30 June 2016 and as the
vesting condition was not satisfied, 1.5 million Performance Rights lapsed; and
Tranche 3 - 1.5 million Performance Rights vest upon the entry into an agreement by a third party to fund the capital
costs of the scandium oxide plant, such cost being in the vicinity of $70 million. The Test Date for these 1.5 million
Performance Rights is 30 June 2018.
Director’s Report
PLATINA RESOURCES LIMITED Annual Report 2017 | 25
REMUNERATION REPORT (audited) (continued)
Each right is converted to one ordinary share upon vesting. The performance rights vest when the vesting conditions
are met. No performance rights will vest if the conditions are not satisfied, hence the minimum value of the
performance rights yet to vest is nil. The maximum value of the performance rights yet to vest has been determined
as the amount of the grant date fair value of the performance rights that is yet to be expensed.
The fair values at grant date of performance rights issued were determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model
or Barrier model simulation that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the rights, the share price at grant
date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, and the risk free interest rate for the term of the rights. The
model inputs for performance rights granted in year ended 30 June 2017 and 2016 included:

Notes to the Financial Statements
Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2017
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These
policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stated. The financial statements are for the
Consolidated Entity (or “Group”) consisting of Platina Resources Limited (“Company”) and its subsidiary. For the purpose of
preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Company is a for-profit entity.
a.
Basis of preparation
The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting
Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board, the Corporations Act 2001 and
other requirements of the law and Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). The financial
report has been prepared on a historical cost basis, except where otherwise stated.
The financial report is presented in Australian dollars.
The Company is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia that has operated during the year in Australia
and Greenland. The Group’s principal activities are evaluation and exploration of mineral interests, prospective for precious
metals and other mineral deposits.
b.
Statement of compliance with IFRS
The financial report was authorised for issue on 28 September 2017. It complies with Australian Accounting Standards, which
include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the
financial report, comprising the financial statements and notes thereto, complies with International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS).
c. Going Concern
The financial report for the year ended 30 June 2017 is prepared on a going concern basis.
The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is principally dependent upon the ability of the Group to secure funds
by raising capital from equity markets, or sale of projects, and managing cash flow in line with available funds. The Group’s
operations require the raising of capital on an on-going basis to fund its planned exploration program and to commercialize
its projects.
The Company recorded a loss after tax of $532,726 for the year ended 30 June 2017 and has accumulated losses of
$18,392,140. However, the Company has successfully raised capital during the year, resulting in a year end cash balance of
$7.97m.
Management has prepared a detailed cash flow forecast for the next 12 months from the date of this report, and the
directors are satisfied that the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate and as a result the directors do not believe
there is any material uncertainty in respect of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable
future.
d. Basis of Consolidation
Controlled Entities
The financial statements of controlled entities are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date control
commences until the date control ceases.
The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The purchase method of
accounting involves allocating the cost of the business combination to the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities
and contingent liabilities assumed at date of acquisition.
Details of controlled entities at balance date are included in Note 21.
Notes to the Financial Statements
PLATINA RESOURCES LIMITED Annual Report 2017 | 33
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
e. New standards and interpretations not yet adopted
A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for future periods reporting, but
have not been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements. Those which may be relevant to the Group are
set out below. The Group does not plan to adopt these standards early.
(i)
A summary of the most significant new standards is as follows:
AASB 9 Financial Instruments
•
•
•
•
Replaces AASB 139 for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018
Revised guidance on classification and measurement of financial instruments
New ‘expected credit loss’ model for calculating impairment on financial assets
Changes to the conditions required to apply hedge accounting
Apart from changing naming conventions, the Group does not expect the Standard to have any impact as the Group
does not have any complex financial instruments
AASB 15 Revenue from Contract with Customers
•
•
•
Replaces AASB 118 Revenue, AASB 111 Construction Contracts and Interpretation 13 Customer Loyalty
Programs for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018.
Establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognised.
The 5-step process for recognising revenue removes the focus from the transfer of “risk and reward” to
identification and completion of “performance obligations.”
At this stage the Group has not entered into any contracts with customers and it is therefore difficult to predict what
form any future contracts may take. As a result it is impractical to attempt to quantify the potential impact of this
standard.
AASB 16 Leases
•
•
•
Replaces AASB 117 Leases for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019.
Requires substantially all leases to be included in the Statement of Financial Position.
Requires all leases to be amortised over the interest component of the lease cost to be expensed, while the
principal component offsets the liability in the Statement of Financial Position.
At this stage the Group is yet to assess the expected impact of this Standard, but historically has not used extensive
Lease facilities.
34 | PLATINA RESOURCES LIMITED Annual Report 2017
Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
f.
Income Tax
The income tax expense (revenue) for the year comprises current income tax expense (income) and deferred tax expense
(income).
Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable
income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at the end of the reporting period. Current tax liabilities (assets) are
therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority.
Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as
well unused tax losses.
Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the profit or loss when
the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been
fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition
of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is
realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantially, enacted at the end of the reporting period.
Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the
related asset or liability.
Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is
probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right to set-off exists and it is intended that net
settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income
taxes levied where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and
liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be
recovered or settled.
g. Property, Plant and Equipment
Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and
impairment losses.
Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis.
The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable
amount from these assets. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining
recoverable amounts.
All repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of comprehensive income during the financial period in which they
are incurred.
Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets is depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives to the Group
commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.
The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:
Class of Fixed Asset Depreciation Rate
Plant and equipment 7.5% -40%
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are
included in the statement of comprehensive income.
Notes to the Financial Statements
PLATINA RESOURCES LIMITED Annual Report 2017 | 35
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
h. Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure
Costs in relation to exploration and evaluation expenditure are capitalised to the extent that:
i.
the rights to tenure of the areas of interest are current and the Group controls the area of interest in which the
expenditure has been incurred;
ii. such costs are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest, or
alternatively by its sale; or
iii. exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not, at the reporting date, reached a stage which permits
a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and active and significant
operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing.
The statement of comprehensive income will recognise expenses arising from the excess of the carrying values of exploration
and evaluation assets over the recoverable amounts of these assets. Expenditure capitalised under the above policy is
amortised over the life of the area of interest from the date that that commercial production of the related mineral occurs.
In the event that an area of interest is abandoned or if the directors consider the expenditure to be of no value, accumulated
expenditure carried forward is written off in the year in which that assessment is made.
i.
Leases
Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are charged as
expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.
Lease incentives under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of the
lease term.
j.
Investments
Investments are valued at fair value as available-for-sale financial assets, as described below. The fair value is assessed from
the shares’ current market value.
k.
Financial Instruments
Recognition
Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value on trade date, which includes transaction costs, when the related
contractual rights or obligations exist. Subsequent to initial recognition these instruments are measured as set out below.
Loans and receivables
These financial assets consist of trade and other receivables, which are measured at cost less any accumulated impairment
losses. There is a significant concentration of credit risk with the Australia Taxation Office, however management considers
credit risk of this entity to be extremely low.
Individually significant receivables are considered for impairment when they are past due or when other objective evidence is
received that a specific counterparty will default. Receivables that are not considered to be individually impaired are
reviewed for impairment in groups, which are determined by reference to the industry and region of a counterparty and
other shared credit risk characteristics. The impairment loss estimate is then based on recent historical counterparty default
rates for each identified group.
Financial Assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets are valued at ‘fair value through profit or loss’ when they are either held for trading for the purpose of short
term profit taking, derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or when they are designated as such to avoid an accounting
mismatch or to enable performance evaluation where a group of financial assets is managed by key management personnel
on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy. Such assets are
subsequently measured at fair value with changes in carrying value being included in profit or loss.
Held-to-maturity investments
These investments have fixed maturities, and it is the Group’s intention to hold these investments to maturity. Any held-to-
maturity investments held by the Group are stated at amortised cost.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
k.
Financial Instruments (Continued)
Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets include any financial assets not included in the above categories. Available-for-sale financial
assets are reflected at fair value. Unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are taken directly to equity,
except where losses are considered to be prolonged and extensive, in which case such losses are recognised in profit or loss.
Financial liabilities
Non-derivative financial liabilities are recognised at amortised cost, comprising original debt less principal payments and
amortisation.
Fair Value
Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments.
Impairment
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been
impaired. In the case of available-for-sale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is
considered to determine whether an impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in profit and loss.
l.
Impairment of Assets
At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether
there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the
asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value.
Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to profit and loss.
Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable
amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
m. Employee Benefits
Short-term employee benefits, including wages and payments made to defined contribution superannuation funds, are
recognised when incurred. Provision is made for the Group’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by
employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the
amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled. Other non-current employment benefit obligations are discounted
using market yields on corporate bonds.
n. Equity settled compensation
The Group operates share-based compensation plans for employees. The element over the exercise price of the employee
services rendered in exchange for the grant of shares and options is recognised as an expense in the statement of
comprehensive income. The total amount to be expensed over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value
of the options granted.
o. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments
with original maturities of twelve months or less, and bank overdrafts. Where applicable, bank overdrafts are shown within
short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.
p. Revenue and Other income
Interest revenues are recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial
assets.
All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).
Other income is recognised when the Group obtains a contractual right to obtain the income.
Notes to the Financial Statements
PLATINA RESOURCES LIMITED Annual Report 2017 | 37
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
q. Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not
recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of
the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown
inclusive of GST.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and
financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
r. Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is
probable that an outflow of economic benefit will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.
No provision has yet been recognised for mine restoration and rehabilitation costs because the definition above has not yet
been satisfied in relation to any of the mine sites operated by the Group.
s. Trade and Other Payables
Trade and other payables represent the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period for goods and services
received by the Group during the reporting period which remains unpaid. The balance recognised as a current liability with
the amount being normally within 30 days of reconciliation of the liability.
t.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments
The directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial statements based on historical knowledge
and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future events and are based on current
trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the Group.
Key Estimates — Impairment
The Group assesses impairment at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the Group that may lead to
impairment of assets. Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. Value-in-use
calculations performed in assessing recoverable amounts incorporate a number of key estimates.
The Group performs a regular review of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry
forward expenditure in relation to that area of interest. The review requires a number of estimates to be made.
No impairment has been recognised for the year ended 30 June 2017 (2016: $Nil), in respect of capitalised exploration costs
for areas of interest.
Key Judgements — Capitalisation of Exploration Costs
All expenditure incurred by the Group, including employee benefits, is assessed as to whether it should be capitalized as
exploration and evaluation expenditure or expensed through the statement of comprehensive income. This requires some
judgement; however expenditure is capitalized to the extent the Group believes it meets the criteria as set out in AASB 6
Exploration Expenditure.
Key Judgements - Share Based Payments
The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the
date at which they are granted. The fair value of options with non-market conditions is determined by an internal valuation
using a Black-Scholes option pricing model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were
granted. The fair value of performance rights with market conditions is determined by using a Black-Scholes option pricing
model or Barrier model simulation taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted.

u.
Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances
Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of each of the Group’s entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment
in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the parent
entity’s functional currency.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the
transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured
at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at
fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.
Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss, except where deferred in
equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.
Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in other comprehensive
income to the extent that the underlying gain or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income; otherwise the exchange
difference is recognised in profit or loss.
Foreign exchange differences relating to qualifying assets are capitalised. Costs incurred in mining exploration are considered
to be part of qualifying assets and can be capitalised.
v. Government Grants
To the extent that contributions or rebates are received from taxation authorities, they are recognised in profit and loss as an
Income Tax Benefit.
w. Comparative Information
Where necessary, comparative financial information may be adjusted to improve comparability, or as required by the
adoption of new or revised accounting standards.

Available-for-sale financial assets comprise of an investment in Artemis which is listed on ASX. The shares in Artemis were received
as partial consideration for an agreement for Artemis to earn a 70% interest in the Munni Munni project in WA. The investment is
recorded at cost and is marked to market at the balance date of 30 June 2016 with changes recognised directly in other
comprehensive income. The Group is exposed to security price risk. This arises from investments held by the Group in entities listed
on a stock exchange. Due to the low value of the investment, security price risk is not considered material to the Group.
The Artemis shareholding is classified as a financial asset held for sale at 30 June 2017 as a portion of the shareholding was
disposed during the current financial year with the remainder disposed subsequent to year end. Available for sale financial assets
are level 1 financial assets as prescribed under the accounting standards on fair value.

(e) Capital Management
Management controls the capital of the Group in order to maintain a good debt to equity ratio, provide the shareholders with
adequate returns and ensure that the Group can fund its operations and continue as a going concern.
The Group’s debt and capital includes ordinary share capital and financial liabilities, supported by financial assets.
There are no externally imposed capital requirements.
Management effectively manages the Group’s capital by assessing the Group’s financial risks and adjusting its capital structure in
response to changes in these risks and in the market. These responses include the management of debt levels, distributions to
shareholders and share issues.
There have been no changes in the strategy by management to control the capital of the Group since the prior year. This strategy is
to ensure that the Group has no debts.

Shareholders approved the Company’s PRP at the Annual General Meeting held on 27 November 2015. The PRP is designed to
provide a framework for competitive and appropriate remuneration so as to retain and motivate skilled and qualified personnel
whose personal rewards are aligned with the achievement of the Company’s growth and strategic objectives.
During the financial year, the Company granted 1 million performance rights for nil consideration over unissued ordinary shares in
the Company to Mr Mosig as part of his remuneration (2016: 5 million) and 350,000 performance rights for nil consideration over
unissued ordinary shares in the Company to a consultant. Refer to Note 14(d) for additional information.
Employee Option Incentive Plan (“EOIP”)
Shareholders last approved the Platina Resources Limited EOIP at the General Meeting on 28 April 2017. The EOIP allows Directors
from time to time to invite eligible employees to participate in the Plan and offer options to those eligible persons. The Plan is
designed to provide incentives, assist in the recruitment, reward, retention of employees and provide opportunities for employees
(both present and future) to participate directly in the equity of the Company. The contractual life of each option granted is three
years or as otherwise determined by the Directors. There are no cash settlement alternatives. No options were issued under the
EOIP in 2017 (2016: nil).
Non - Plan based payments
The Company also makes share based payments to consultants and / or service providers from time to time, not under any specific
plan. Specific shareholder approval was obtained for any share based payments to directors and officers of the parent entity.
11 million options were issued to directors and officers during the year ended 30 June 2017 (2016: nil).
6 million options were issued to a corporate advisor as partial consideration for acting as the Lead Manager for the March 2017
placement.

NOTE 19
OPERATING SEGMENTS
The Group operates predominately in mineral exploration with a focus on platinum group metals.
Segment Information
Identification of reportable segments
The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors
(chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources.
The Group is managed primarily on the basis of geographical locations as these locations have notably different risk profiles and
performance assessment criteria. Operating segments are therefore determined on the same basis.
Reportable segments disclosed are based on aggregating operating segments where the segments are considered to have similar
economic characteristics and are similar with respect to any external regulatory requirements.
Basis of accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments
(a) Accounting policies adopted
Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors, being the chief decision maker with respect to operating
segments, are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent to those adopted in the annual financial
statements of the Group.
(b) Segment assets
Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to that segment that receives majority economic value from
that asset. In the majority of instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their nature and physical location.
(c) Segment liabilities
Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is a direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations of the
segment. Segment liabilities include trade and other payables and deferred tax liabilities.
(d) Unallocated items
The following items of revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities are not allocated to operating segments as they are not considered
part of the core operations of any segment:
▪ Derivatives
▪ Net gains on disposal of available-for-sale investments
▪
▪
Impairment of assets and other non-recurring items of revenue or expense
Income tax expense
▪ Deferred tax assets and liabilities
▪
Current tax liabilities
▪ Other financial liabilities
▪
Intangible assets
▪ Discontinuing operations

The Group’s financial instruments consist mainly of deposits with banks, short term investments, accounts receivable and accounts
payable.
The main risks and related risk management policies arising from the Group’s financial instruments are summarised below.
Credit Risk
The maximum exposure to credit risk at balance date to recognised financial assets, net of any provisions for doubtful debts, is
disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to and forming part of the financial report. The Group does have a
material credit risk exposure to a single debtor or group of debtors under financial instruments entered into by the Group, being
the counterparty to the other income described in Note 2. Amounts receivable are set out in a contract with that debtor.
Interest Rate Risk
The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk is the risk that an increase or decrease in market interest rates will result in increased or
reduced revenue from interest receipts. The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk is minimal.
Liquidity Risk
The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows. The Group’s operations require the raising of capital on an on-
going basis to fund its planned exploration program and to commercialise its tenement assets. The Group’s past success in the
raising of capital will ensure it can continue as a going concern and proceed with planned exploration expenditure.
Net Fair Values
The net fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities approximate their carrying value. No financial assets and financial
liabilities are readily traded on organised markets in standardised form except for the investment disclosed in Note 12. The
aggregate net fair values and carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities are disclosed in the statement of financial
position and in the notes to and forming part of the financial report.

Exposure to foreign exchange risk may result in fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument fluctuating due to
movement in foreign exchange rates of currencies in which the Group makes purchases or holds financial instruments which are
other than the AUD functional currency.
Other than the conversion to the spot rate of the Deferred Tax Liability that arose in Greenland, the foreign currency to the Group
is considered immaterial and is therefore not discussed further.
