CHAIRMAN’S LETTER
Dear Shareholders,
We hope this report finds you and your families all safe and healthy. Although the global pandemic has disrupted life and
business as we know it, the Company is pleased to inform you that through diligent planning, we have managed to progress
our projects whilst ensuring the safety of our staff and contractors. As a result, we are now planning additional activities on
our projects for the following year and look forward to realising the potential of Raiden’s portfolio.
On securing an entire portfolio of projects in Bulgaria, consisting of three high quality copper/gold permits, the Company
expedited historical data reviews, conducted field verification visits and planned for initial field work programs. As a result, a
number of new prospects were defined in addition to historical target areas. On the Kalabak project, the Company executed
geochemical and geophysical surveys across key targets, with the objective of delineating drill targets ahead of the planned
summer drill campaign. Further, adding to an impressive list of properties in Bulgaria, the Company was confirmed as the
winner of the BG-1 licence tender, which hosts two defined porphyry targets supported by historical drilling.
In Serbia, the Company announced results from the scout drilling campaigns on its 100% owned Majdanpek West and Donje
Nevlje projects. The Company is very encouraged by the fact that both initial drilling programs intercepted anomalous
mineralisation, which warrants further follow-up targeting and drill testing. Upon the Ministry confirming the renewal
requests on both of the projects, the Company plans to undertake further geophysical surveys in order to refine drill targeting.
At Zupa, preliminary mapping and sampling campaigns defined a large poly-metallic geochemical anomaly on the western
edge of the permit. The Company plans to advance the targeting on this anomaly, once the Ministry confirms the renewal of
the exploration permit.
Despite the significant progress made across our portfolio, the disruptions caused by Covid-19 restrictions brought a halt to
all the Company’s field activities for a period of time. The board turned its priority to the safety of its staff and contractors to
ensure that critical staff, which had to continue with statutory activities could do so as safely as possible. At the same time
the Board implemented a series of cost and asset preservation measures, to ensure that the Company was in a position to
recommence with business activities on easing of restrictions.
Whilst Covid-19 did impact field activities, the Company was able to focus its time on corporate and administrative matters
and continue to create value within the overall business. During this period the Company dual listed on the Frankfurt stock
exchange, as well as, advanced the drill permitting on the Kalabak project and completed the recent capital raising ensuring
that the drill campaign on the Kalabak project was fully funded.
With drilling currently underway on the Kalabak project, the Company announced that the exploration agreement for the
highly prospective Vuzel gold project was executed by the Ministry of Energy, which ensures the Company may plan for near
term field activities. Work is currently underway to expedite approvals of the work program in order to advance the high
grade gold target at Vuzel to drill ready status. The Company believes it will be in a position to drill the Vuzel gold prospect
during the second half of the year.
In line with the Raiden’s corporate strategy to generate value for all the shareholders and deliver a significant economic
discovery, the Company will continue to evaluate further opportunities, both in the current region of operations and further
afield, including in Australia.
Finally, as we look ahead to what should be an exciting period for the Company, the board wishes to thank all our employees
for their continued efforts and extend our further gratitude to all our shareholders who have continued to support the
Company over the last twelve months.
Yours faithfully,
Mr Michael Davy
Non-Executive Chairman

Kalabak
On 15 July 2019, the Company entered into an Option Agreement with QX Metals Corporation (“QX”) over the Kalabak Project
in Bulgaria. QX, a TSX-V listed company (TSXV Code: QX) is the 100% holder of the Kalabak licence, through its 100% owned
Bulgarian entity, Zelenrok EOOD. Under the terms of the agreement the Company has an Option to earn into a 75% position
within the Kalabak project under the following terms:
• Phase 1 Option: By spending US$1 million on project expenditure within a 2-year period, the Company has the option to
earn a 51% project level interest. The expenditure requires the completion of a minimum of 3,000 metres of reverse
circulation or diamond drilling. The Company was obliged to spend US$250,000 before 14 December 2019, this obligation
has been met.

RAIDEN RESOURCES LIMITED ABN 68 009 161 522
DIRECTOR’S REPORT (CONTINUED)
Review of Operations (Continued)
Raiden is the manager and operator of the work program.
The initial results from a technical review of historical data, geological maps and exploration data from an outcrop sampling
program carried out by QX and reconnaissance field visit to Kalabak project in Bulgaria has shown that the project host the
potential for a significant discovery.
Sbor Prospect
The Company’s geologists have observed alteration zones and quarts veining which may be indicative of a porphyry system
on the Sbor prospect. Sbor prospect is defined by a large, 1 km by 0.5km alteration zone, which may be related to a porphyry
intrusion and possibly related epithermal base and/or precious metals mineralised system.
The prospect covers an area where Teritary conglomerates (Podrumsche Formation) are in a faulted and/or discordant
contact with older metamorphosed basement rocks. At the Sbor Prospect these conglomerates show argillic alteration and
silicification.
As a result of the initial observations, the Company executed detailed geochemical and geophysical surveys, both of which
confirmed a target on the Sbor anomaly. In September 2020, the Company commenced with the maiden drilling campaign
on the Sbor prospect. Results are expected in the later part of October, or early November 2020.
Following prospects, which were defined by the Company in the reconissence stages and will be evaluated in more detail in
the following 12 month period.
White Cliff Prospect
The White Cliff prospect is defined by extensive alteration zone associated by an east-west trending sub-volcanic rhyolite
dyke and a large irregularly shaped rhyolite stock, which intruded into an Eocene and Oligocene volcano-sedimentary
package.
Sbor West Prospect
Processed satellite data and geological mapping demonstrated that the Sbor West Prospect comprises a one kilometer long
and north-west trending corridor, along with at least seven zones of total argillic alteration exist. Geologically, the prospect
occurs at the base of an Eocene and Oligocene volcano-clastic sequence of andesitic composition, directly overlying the
Podrumsche conglomerate.
Sbor West Prospect
Published geological maps as well as the technical team’s field observations outlined subvolcanic porphyritic andesite stocks,
that intruded the volcano-clastic sequence in the area of interest. These andesite stocks may relate to a larger concealed
feeder intrusive underneath the Sbor West Prospect and therefore underline the potential for deeper seated copper
porphyry mineralisation.
Raiden’s short-term exploration program over the Sbor West Prospect will include a multi-element soil geochemical survey,
geophysics and alteration mapping, with the objective of generating initial drill targets in the near future.
Belopoltsi Prospect
The Belopoltsi prospect is interpreted to be the westerly extension of the Popsko Gold and Poly-Metallic Ore Field, which is
located to the immediate east of the Kalabak license.
After initial mapping and rock sampling indicated the presence of prospective structures, Raiden completed a soil survey on
a 100 meter by 25 meter grid spacing (528 samples) over the target area. The prospect was defined by outcropping gold
bearing quartz veins, which are emplaced within the metamorphic basement and brecciated zones on the contacts of the
rhyolite bodies.
ANNUAL REPORT 30 JUNE 2020
5
RAIDEN RESOURCES LIMITED ABN 68 009 161 522
DIRECTOR’S REPORT (CONTINUED)
Review of Operations (Continued)
A limited rock sampling program (12 samples) was carried out in parallel with the mapping program, focused on outcrops of
the prospective quartz veins and on the brecciated contacts between the rhyolite intrusions and their metamorphic host
rocks. Three of the 12 sampled outcrops yielded anomalous gold concentrations ranging from 0.1 g/t to 2.2 g/t. The geology
and mineralisation at the Belopoltsi prospect compares favorably with the style and nature of mineralisation found in the
Popsko polymetallic field, where gold-silver and poly-metallic base metal mineralization is associated with low temperature
quartz veins and linear vein swarms.
On the basis of the field observations and available data sets, the Company considers the Belopoltsi prospect to represent a
low sulpidation gold system. The follow up work will include further soil sampling to define the extent of the anomalies,
further mapping of the anomalous areas and trenching.
Chal prospect
Chal prospect was first recognised with the discovery of an outcropping alteration zone, in an area of gold anomalism defined
by the Company’s sampling program in 2019. Field observation, followed by an infill soil sampling program and ground
magnetics resulted in definition of a new geochemical anomaly and associated hydrothermal alteration, which may be
indicative of porphyry-related copper-gold mineralisation.
In response the COVID-19 and the declaration of state emergency in Bulgaria, the Company gave notice of “force majeure”
under the Kalabak Option Agreement to QX Metal Corp.
Zlatusha
On 15 July 2019, the Company entered into an Option Agreement over the Zlatusha Project in Bulgaria. Under the terms of
the agreement the Company has an Option to earn into a 75% position within the Zlatusha project under the following terms:
• Phase 1 Option: By spending a total of US$2.5 million on project expenditure within a 3-year period, the Company has
the option to earn into a 51% project level interest in the Zlatusha property. The expenditure requires the completion of
a minimum of 6,500 metres of reverse circulation or diamond drilling.
• Phase 2 Option: By completing a 43-101 compliant Preliminary Feasibility Study (“PFS”), by the 7th anniversary from when
the Zlatusha Exploration Agreement is signed by the Bulgarian Ministry of Energy, as well as, meeting other conditions,
Raiden has the option to earn additional 24% interest to obtain a 75% project level interest of the project.
Upon Raiden obtaining a 75% project level interest in the project, QX shall have the option to:
• Maintain its 25% interest within the project by financing its proportional share of further expenditure.
• Sell its remaining stake in the project, with Raiden having the first right of refusal.
• Dilute its remaining interest to a 2% Net Smelter Royalty (“NSR”), where Raiden will have the option to purchase an initial
0.5% of the total NSR for US$2.5m and a further 1% being purchasable for US$5m, prior to commencement of commercial
production.
Raiden is the manager and operator of the work program.
Following are some of the key prospects which the Company has defined in its review of historical data and which will be the
focus of exploration as soon as the Minister executes the final steps of the licensing protocol.
Rosoman Prospect
On 18 October 2019, Raiden announced that the Rosoman prospect lies in the central part of the Zlatusha project area
contains geological features typically associated with mineralised porphyry systems. The initial review and field visit at
Rosoman prospect confirmed an outcropping porphyry copper and epithermal gold alteration system. The historical rock
sampling indicated elevated Cu-Au values which are coincidental with large alteration zones.

RAIDEN RESOURCES LIMITED ABN 68 009 161 522
DIRECTOR’S REPORT (CONTINUED)
Review of Operations (Continued)
Pishtane Prospect
The result from Pishtane prospect evaluation indicated potential for epithermal gold mineralisation.
Further exploration activity on Rosoman and Pishtane prospects including geochemical survey and geophysical evaluations
are planned to commence once the exploration licence is signed by the Bulgarian Minister of Energy.
Vuzel
During the year Vuzel project in Bulgaria has progressed through one of the key phases of the approval process within the
Bulgarian Ministry of Energy. Subsequently, the Minister of Energy executed the exploration agreement for the license, which
is a key milestone which allows the Company to commence with preparation for field work and the Company expects that it
will be in a position to commence with exploration in the latter part of 2020.
Vuzel project hosts a low sulphidation, epithermal gold prospect which is defined by historical high-grade channel sampling
results, which presents an advanced, high grade gold target. Drilling test on the main gold target will be conducted once final
permitting completed.
Iglika
On 18 December 2019, Raiden entered into an earn-in and option to purchase agreement over Iglika project in Bulgaria. The
permit is located within upper cretaceous volcanic rocks, which host many significant porphyry copper and epithermal gold
deposits in the Balkans.
On completion of the due diligence over Iglika project and the holding company in Bulgaria, Raiden has notified the vendor
that it has not been satisfied with the due diligence and will not be pursuing further investments into the Company (Balkan
Mineral Development) or at the project level. As a result, Raiden was refunded its loan with interest, which was entered into
with Balkan Minerals Developments (owner of Iglika project).
Donje Nevlje
As a result of the maiden drilling program, which the Company executed in Q1 of 2019, the Company announced that it had
intercepted copper and gold mineralisation in one of the drill holes which targeted a blind porphyry system. . The Company
is evaluating options to undertake in following phase of exploration, which may include follow up geophysics (magnetic and
or gravity surveys), in order to refine the target at depth prior to executing a follow up drilling campaign.
The Company has submitted a request for the extension of the licence (expired July 2019) to the Serbian Ministry of Mines
and Energy (“Ministry”), for a further 3-year term and shall only be able to resume further work on the licence after the
Ministry granted the extension. At the date of this report the renewal outcome is pending.
Zupa
During the reporting period the transfer of the Zupa project from Balkan Mineral Corporation DOO to Skarnore Resources
DOO, a 100% held subsidiary of the Company had been approved by Serbian Ministry of Mines and Energy. The transfer was
completed and as a result the Company is the 100% owner of the project. The project is considered prospective for
polymetallic and intrusion related mineralisation.
During the year, the Company executed a detailed soil sampling campaign on the western periphery of the Zupa licence, with
over 1,200 samples were collected. The program targeted the contacts between the Triassic andesites and limestones. The
soil samples were analysed in a controlled field laboratory setting. Based on this analysis, the program has defined a 6.5 Km
long geochemical anomaly on the south-western flank of the project area. The anomaly is defined by a coherent zone of
elevated Zinc in soil values, as well as coincident elevated lead and copper trends. The soil anomalies are likely associated
with a NW-SE trending structural corridor and the andesite-limestone contact.
The Company has submitted a request for the extension of the exploration license for a further 3-year term. At this time the
Company is still awaiting the approval of the extension by the Serbian Ministry of Mining and Energy.

Majdanpek
On 30 January 2020, Raiden received withdrawal notice from Rio Tinto from the Majdanpek West Earn in Joint Venture. The
Joint Venture covered two licences, Majdanpek West and Majdanpek Pojas. The Company did not conduct field operations
on these 2 licenses since receiving the withdrawal notice. The Company focused on the reinterpretation of the significant
data generated by Rio Tinto, with the objective of defining gold targets, which were not the focus of Rio Tinto’s exploration
efforts. The Company has submitted a request for the extension of the exploration licence, which is still pending at the time
of writing.
Tilva Njagra
During the financial year the Group relinquished the Tilva Njagra project based on poor initial results and lack of clear targets.

On 31 January 2020, the World Health Organisation (WHO) announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of
coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (COVID-19 outbreak) and the risks to the international community as the virus
spreads globally beyond its point of origin. Because of the rapid increase in exposure globally, on 11 March 2020, the WHO
classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic. These events are having a significant negative impact on world stock
markets, currencies and general business activities.
The Board took steps to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 with immediate effect. Actions by the Board were in line with
Government directives where a state of emergency had been declared in both Serbia and Bulgaria, where the Group’s
projects are located. As a response the Board had implemented the following initiatives:
•
•
•
•
The Board initiated work-from-home protocols where possible to ensure that all of the staff could exercise ‘social
distancing’ in Serbia, Bulgaria and in Australia;
The Board implemented cost savings and asset preservation initiatives across the business, until such a time
where the Group could commenced field activities;
All business travel was cancelled until it was safe and practical to do so; and
The Group used the period to undertake in-house technical reviews of all the data which has been collected over
its portfolio of projects
Further to the above initiatives the Company provided a notice of “force majeure” under the Kalabak Option Agreement to
QX Metals Corp. (“QX Metals”) (TSX-V: QX.V) in light of the situation with COVID-19 and the declaration of a state of
emergency in Bulgaria. The effect of the notice was that the period of time for performance of obligations by all parties to
the option agreements was extended by the length of the period of the intervening force majeure.

DIRECTOR’S REPORT (CONTINUED)
Remuneration Report (Audited)
1.
Introduction
Key Management Personnel (KMP) has authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities
of the Group. KMP comprise the directors of the Company and identified key management personnel.
Compensation levels for KMP are competitively set to attract and retain appropriately qualified and experienced directors
and executives. The Board may seek independent advice on the appropriateness of compensation packages, given trends in
comparable companies both locally and internationally and the objectives of the Group’s compensation strategy.
2. Remuneration governance
The Directors believe the Company is not currently of a size nor are its affairs of such complexity as to warrant the
establishment of a separate remuneration committee. Accordingly, all matters are considered by the full Board of Directors,
in accordance with a remuneration committee charter. During the financial year, the Company did not engage any
remuneration consultants.
3. Executive remuneration arrangements
The compensation structures are designed to attract suitably qualified candidates, reward the achievement of strategic
objectives, and achieve the broader outcome of creation of value for shareholders. Compensation packages may include a
mix of fixed compensation, equity-based compensation, as well as employer contributions to superannuation funds. Shares,
options and other equity instruments may only be issued subject to approval by shareholders in a general meeting.
At the date of this report the Company has one executive appointed, being Mr Dusko Ljubojevic as the Managing Director.
The terms of his Executive Employment Agreement with Raiden Resources Limited is summarised in the following table.

businesses in accordance with Group’s remuneration policies
The agreement has no fixed terms with termination requiring not less three months’
written notice.
At this stage the Board does not consider the Group’s earnings or earning related measures to be an appropriate key
performance indicator (KPI). In considering the relationship between the Group’s remuneration policy and the consequences
for the Company’s shareholder wealth, changes in share price are analysed as well as measures such as successful completion
of exploration programs, business development and corporate activities.
4. Non-Executive Director fee arrangements
The Board policy is to remunerate Non-Executive Directors at a level to comparable Companies for time, commitment, and
responsibilities. Directors’ fees cover all main Board activities and membership of any committee. The Board has no
established retirement or redundancy schemes in relation to Non-executive Directors.
The Non-Executive Directors have or may be provided with options that are meant to incentivise the Non-Executive Directors.
The board determines payments to the Non-Executive Directors and reviews their remuneration annually based on market
practice, duties, and accountability. Independent external advice will be sought when required.

CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020
These consolidated financial statements cover Raiden Resources Limited (“the Company”) and its controlled entities as a
consolidated entity (also referred to as “the Group”). The Company is a company limited by shares, incorporated and
domiciled in Australia. The Group is a for-profit entity. The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, unless
otherwise stated, which is also the Parent’s functional currency.
The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the Group in the preparation and presentation of
the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a) Basis of preparation of the financial report
Statement of compliance
These financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with Australian
Accounting Standards (including Australian interpretations) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standard Board (AASB)
and the Corporations Act 2001. The financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards adopted by
the International Accounting Standards Board. The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are
based on historical costs.
b) New or Amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations Adopted
The Group has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian
Accounting Standards Board that are mandatory for the current reporting period.
Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.
AASB 16 Leases
The consolidated entity has adopted AASB 16 from 1 July 2019. The standard replaces AASB 117 ‘Leases’ and for lessees
eliminates the classification of operating leases and finance leases. Except for short-term leases and leases of low-value
assets, right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities are recognised in the statement of financial position. Straight-
line operating lease expense recognition is replaced with a deprecation charge for the right-of-use assets (included in
operating costs) and an interest expense on the recognised lease liabilities (included in finance costs). In the earlier periods
of the lease, the expenses associated with the lease under AASB 16 will be higher when compared to lease expenses under
AASB 117. However, EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Tax Depreciation and Amortisation) results improve as the operating
expense is now replaced by interest expense and deprecation in profit or loss. For classification within the statement of cash
flows, the interest portion is disclosed in operating activities and the principal portion of the lease payments are separately
disclosed in financing activities. For lessor accounting, the standard does not substantially change how a lessor accounts for
leases.
Impact of Adoption
The Group has made an assessment and determined that this standard does not have a significant impact on the Group.
Payments associated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised on a straight-line basis as an
expense in profit or loss.

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
c) Going Concern
The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business
activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Group incurred a
loss of $1,590,612 and had net cash outflows from operating activities of $1,351,633 for year ended 30 June 2020.
The spread of novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was declared a public health emergency by the World Health Organisation on
31 January 2020 and upgraded to a global pandemic on 11 March 2020. The rapid rise of the virus has seen unprecedented
global response by Government, regulators, and industry sector. In particular, a state of emergency had been declared in
both Serbia and Bulgaria, where the Group’s projects are located.
The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in uncertain economic market conditions and general business activities.
The timing and extent of the impact and recovery from COVID-19 is uncertain and may have an impact on Group’s activities.
Notwithstanding the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19, these financial statements have been prepared on a going
concern basis. In context of the operating environment, the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is dependent
on securing additional funding through debt or equity to continue to fund its operational activities.
The Directors believe that there will be sufficient funds available to continue to meet the Group’s working capital
requirements as at the date of this report and that sufficient funds will be available to finance the operations of the Group
for the following reasons:
•
•
•
•
The Directors of Raiden Resources Limited have assessed the likely cash flow for the 12 month period from the date of
signing this financial report and its impact on the Group and believe there will be sufficient funds to meet the Group’s
working capital requirements as at the date of this report;
The Group had received subsequent to balance date applications from sophisticated, professional and other exempt
investors to subscribe for a $1 million capital raising through the issue of 142,857,143 fully paid ordinary shares at offer
price of $0.007. The first Tranche of 107,142,857 shares were issued on 9 September 2020 with the second Tranche of
35,714,286 shares subject to shareholder approval;
The Group has the ability to reduce its administrative and discretionary exploration expenditure to conserve cash; and
The Company has the ability to raise capital, as and when required.
d) Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Group and its subsidiaries as at 30 June 2020.
Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and
has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Group controls an investee if and
only if the Group has:
•
•
•
Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee),
Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and
The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.
When the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts
and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:
•
•
•
The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee,
Rights arising from other contractual arrangements,
The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights.

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
d) Principles of Consolidation (continued)
The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to
one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the
subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary
acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from
the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income (OCI) are attributed to the equity holders of the parent of
the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line
with the Group’s accounting policies. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating
to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.
A change in ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction. If the
Group loses control over a subsidiary, it:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
De-recognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary
De-recognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests
De-recognises the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity
Recognises the fair value of the consideration received
Recognises the fair value of any investments retained
Recognises any surplus or deficit in profit and loss
Reclassifies the parent’s share of components previously recognised in OCI to profit or loss or retained earnings, as
appropriate, as would be required if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities
e) Parent entity information
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 these financial statements present the results of the Group only.
Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 16.
f)
Interest Income
Interest income is recognised as it accrues, taking into account the effective yield on the financial asset. If not received at
the end of reporting period, it is reflected in the statement of financial position as a receivable.
g) Goods and Services Tax (GST)/ Value Added Tax (VAT)
Revenues, expenses, and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST/ VAT, except where the amount of GST/VAT
incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office (ATO) or Ministry of Finance – Republic of Serbia (MFIN).
Receivable and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST/VAT receivable or payable. The net amount of the
GST/VAT recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO or MFIN is included with other receivables and payables in the statement
of financial position.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST/VAT component of investing
and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
h)
Income Tax
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 reporting date. 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 as 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 substantively enacted at reporting date. 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.
Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference cannot be
controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of 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 by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities 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.
i)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, and short-term deposits available on demand with banks that are readily
convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
j)
Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective
interest method, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30
days. The Group has applied the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime expected loss
allowance. To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on days overdue. Other
receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any allowance for expected credit losses.

k)
Financial Instruments
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial instruments, incorporating financial assets and financial liabilities, are recognised when the entity becomes a party
to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Trade date accounting is adopted for financial assets that are delivered
within timeframes established by marketplace convention.
Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transactions costs where the instrument is not classified as at
fair value through profit or loss. Transaction costs related to instruments classified as at fair value through profit or loss are
expensed to profit or loss immediately. Financial instruments are classified and measured as set out below.
Classification and subsequent measurement
Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to
determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions, reference to similar
instruments and option pricing models.
The Group does not designate any interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint venture entities as being subject to the
requirements of accounting standards specifically applicable to financial instruments.
(i)
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in
an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Loans and receivables are included in current assets, except for those which are not expected to mature within 12
months after the end of the reporting period. All other loans and receivables are classified as non-current assets.
(ii) Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss
Financial assets are classified at fair value through profit or loss when they are held for trading for the purpose of
short term profit taking, where they are derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or 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. Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are included in profit or loss in
the period in which they arise.
(iii) Financial liabilities
Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Gains or losses are recognised in profit and loss through the amortisation process and when the financial liability is
derecognised.
Derivative instruments
The Group does not trade or hold derivatives.
Financial guarantees
The Group has bank guarantees for contract performance.
Impairment
At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has
been impaired. An impairment exists if one or more events that has occurred since the initial recognition of the asset (an
incurred ‘loss event’) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets
that can be reliably estimated.

k) Financial Instruments (continued)
Derecognition
Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flow expires or the asset is transferred to
another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated
with the asset.
Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference
between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of
consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.
l)
Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
At the end of each reporting period, the Directors assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired.
The assessment will include the consideration of external and internal sources of information, including dividends received
from subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. Assets that have an
indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment.
If any such indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the asset’s recoverable amount,
being the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use, to the asset’s carrying amount. Any excess of the
asset’s carrying amount over its recoverable amount is recognised immediately in profit or 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) Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical costs less depreciation. Historical costs include expenditure that is
directly attributable to the acquisition of items.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when
it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the costs of the items can
be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when
replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the period in which there are incurred.
Depreciation is calculated using the diminishing value method to allocate their cost, net of their residual values, over their
estimated useful lives of, in the case vehicles as follows:
Plant and Equipment and Vehicles
3 to 15 years
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater
than its estimated recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in the income
statement.

n) Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared incorporating retrospective application of a voluntary change in
accounting policy relating to exploration and evaluation expenditure. The new accounting policy was adopted on 30 June
2020 and has been applied retrospectively. The Board has determined that the change in the accounting policy will result in
more relevant and reliable information to users of the consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Policy
The Group previously adopted the accounting policy to fully capitalise exploration expenditure on each area of interest where
the Group has not reached the stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable
reserves.
Under this accounting policy the exploration and evaluation costs, including the costs of acquiring licences, were capitalised
as exploration and evaluation assets on the area of interest (full-cost method). Costs incurred before the Group had obtained
the legal rights to explore an area of interest were recognised in the profit and loss statement.
For the financial year ended 30 June 2020, The Group accounts for exploration and evaluation activities by using successful
efforts method of accounting. The result of the change of accounting policy means that the Group will expenses exploration
and evaluation expenditure as incurred in respect of each identifiable area of interest until a time where the asset is in
development stage.
Recognition and measurement
Under the successful efforts method, only those costs that lead directly to the discovery, acquisition, or development of
specific discrete mineral reserves are capitalised. Costs that are known to fail to meet this criteria (at the time of occurrence)
are generally charged to the statement of profit or loss as an expense in the period they are incurred.
Accounting for exploration and evaluation expenditure is assessed separately for each area of interest. Each 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 deposit.
Exploration and evaluation costs are written off in the year they are incurred, apart from exploration licence and acquisition
costs.
Licence costs paid in connection with a right to explore in an existing exploration area are capitalised and reviewed at each
reporting period to confirm that there is no indication that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. This review
includes the following:
Confirming that exploration activities are still under way or firmly planned; or
•
•
• Work is under way to determine that the discovery is economically viable based on a range of technical consideration
It has been determined; or
and sufficient progress is being made on establishing development plans and timing.
Acquisition costs are carried forward where a right to explore in the area of interest is current and are expected to be
recouped through sale or successful development of the area of interest. Where an area of interest is abandoned or the
Board decide that there no future activity is planned or the licence has been relinquished or has expired, the carrying value
of the licence and acquisition costs are written off in the financial period the decision is made through statement of profit or
loss and other comprehensive income.

o) Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year which
are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 90 days of recognition. Trade and other payables are
presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months from the reporting date. They are recognised
initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
p) Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured
at amortised costs. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is
recognised in profit and loss over the period of the borrowing using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the
establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or
all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalized as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the
period of the facility to which it relates.
q) 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 benefits will result, and that outflow can be reliably measured. Provisions are
measured using the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period.
r) Employee Benefits
Short-term obligations
Liabilities for wages, salaries and annual leave, including non-monetary benefits expected to be settled within 12 months
after the end of the period in which the employees render the related services are recognised in respect of employees’
services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities
are settled. Short-term employee benefit obligations are presented as payables.
The obligations are presented as current liabilities if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for
at least twelve months after the reporting date, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected to occur.
Termination benefits
Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated before the normal retirement date, or when an
employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Group recognises termination at the earliest
of the following dates; (a) when the group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits; and (b) when the entity
recognises costs for a restructuring what is within the scope of AASB137 and involved the payments of termination benefits.
Benefits falling due more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period are discounted to present value.
Profit sharing and bonus plans
The Group recognised a liability and an expense for bonuses and profit-sharing case on a formula that takes into
consideration the profit attributable to the company’s shareholders after certain adjustments. The Group recognises a
provision when contractually obliged or when it is past practice that has created a constructing obligation.
Share-based payments
Equity-settled and cash-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees.
Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, or options over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for
the rendering of services. Cash-settled transactions are awards of cash for the exchange of services, where the amount of
cash is determined by reference to the share price.
The cost of equity-settled transactions are measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined
using either the Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the
option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the
expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option, together with non-vesting conditions that
do not determine whether the consolidated entity receives the services that entitle the employees to receive payment. No
account is taken of any other vesting conditions.

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
r) Employee Benefits (Continued)
Share-based payments (Continued)
Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore any awards subject to market
conditions are considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition has been met, provided all other
conditions are satisfied.
If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not been made. An
additional expense is recognised, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification that increases the total fair value
of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification.
If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the consolidated entity or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition
is treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the consolidated entity or employee and is not
satisfied during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period,
unless the award is forfeited.
If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any remaining expense
is recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled award, the cancelled and new award
is treated as if they were a modification.
s) Foreign currency transactions and balances
Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of each entity within the Group 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 and presentation currency.
Transaction 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 the profit or loss.
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 recognized in other comprehensive Income; otherwise the exchange
difference is recognised in profit or loss.
t) Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of Raiden Resources Limited,
excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial year.
Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account
the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the
weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential
ordinary shares.

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
u) Issued Capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new share or options are shown
in equity as deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
v) Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets
that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those
assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
w) New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet mandatory,
have not been early adopted by the Group for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2020. The Group's assessment of
the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations, most relevant to the consolidated entity, are
set out below.
Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting (Conceptual Framework)
The revised Conceptual Framework is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020 and early
adoption is permitted. The Conceptual Framework contains new definition and recognition criteria as well as new guidance
on measurement that affects several Accounting Standards. Where the consolidated entity has relied on the existing
framework in determining its accounting policies for transactions, events or conditions that are not otherwise dealt with
under the Australian Accounting Standards, the consolidated entity may need to review such policies under the revised
framework. At this time, the application of the Conceptual Framework is not expected to have a material impact on the
consolidated entity's financial statements.
x) Critical Accounting estimates and judgements
The Directors evaluate estimates and judgements 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 and judgements
Share based payments
Share-based payments are measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments
issued, if it is determined the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date
the goods or services are received. The fair value of options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The
number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that the
amount recognised for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted is based on the number of equity
instruments that eventually vest.
Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic
Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has had, or may have,
on the Group based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of the products and services offered,
customers, supply chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the consolidated entity operates. Other than as addressed
in specific notes, there does not currently appear to be either any significant impact upon the financial statements or any
significant uncertainties with respect to events or conditions which may impact the Group unfavourably as at the reporting
date or subsequently as a result of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
x) Critical Accounting estimates and judgements
Exploration and evaluation costs
Certain exploration and evaluation costs have been capitalised on the basis that the Group will commence commercial
production in the future, from which time the costs will be amortised in proportion to the depletion of the mineral resources.
Key judgements are applied in considering costs to be capitalised which includes determining expenditures directly related
to these activities and allocating overheads between those that are expensed and capitalised. In addition, costs are only
capitalised that are expected to be recovered either through successful development or sale of the relevant mining interest.
Factors that could impact the future commercial production at the mine include the level of reserves and resources, future
technology changes, which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes and changes in commodity prices. To the
extent that capitalised costs are determined not to be recoverable in the future, they will be written off in the period in which
this determination is made.

NOTE 14: OPERATING SEGMENTS
Segment Information
Identification of reportable segments
The Group has identified one operating segment based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of
Directors (the chief operating decision makers) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources. The
Group’s sole operating segment is consistent with the presentation of these consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 15: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial Risk Management Policies
The Group’s financial instruments consist mainly of deposits with banks, other debtors and accounts payable. The main
purpose of non-derivative financial instruments is to raise finance for Group’s operations.
Specific Financial Risk Exposures and Management
The main risk the Group is exposed to through its financial instruments are market risk (including fair value and interest rate
risk) and cash flow interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.
(a)
Interest Rate Risk
From time to time the Group has significant interest-bearing assets, but they are as a result of the timing of equity raising
and capital expenditure rather than a reliance on interest income. The interest rate risk arises on the rise and fall of interest
rates. The Group’s income and operating cash flows are not expected to be materially exposed to changes in market interest
rates in the future and the exposure to interest rates is limited to the cash and cash equivalents balances.

(c)
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or otherwise meeting
its obligations related to financial liabilities. 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 reserves by routinely monitoring forecast and actual cash flows.
The Group has no access to credit standby facilities or arrangements for further funding or borrowings in place. The financial
liabilities of the Group are confined to trade and other payables as disclosed in the Statement of Financial Position. All trade
and other payables are non-interest bearing and due within 12 months of the reporting date.

Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of
the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial
report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key Audit Matter
Going Concern
Refer to Note 1 in the financial statements
For the year ended 30 June 2020, the Group
incurred a loss of $1,590,612 and had net cash
outflows from operating activities of $1,351,633 for
the year ended 30 June 2020. As at that date, the
Group had cash of $314,275.
The directors’ have prepared the financial report on
a going concern basis based on a cash flow forecast
which considers the factors disclosed in Note 1 to
the financial statements.
We determined this assessment of going concern to
be a key audit matter due to the significant
judgements involved in preparing the cash flow
forecast.
Other Information
How our audit addressed this matter
Our audit procedures included:
Assessing the appropriateness and mathematical
accuracy of the cash flow forecast prepared by
management;
Challenging
the
reasonableness of
the key
assumptions used in the cash flow forecast;
Critically assessing the directors’ reasons of why
they believe it is appropriate to prepare the financial
report on a going concern basis; and
Assessing the adequacy of the going concern
disclosures in the financial report.
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included
in the Group's annual report for the year ended 30 June 2020 but does not include the financial report and the
auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any
form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing
so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge
obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other
information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair
view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporation Act 2001 and for such internal
control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true
and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as
a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of
accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic
alternative but to do so.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance
with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements
can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably
be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and
Assurance Standards Board website at: https://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar1.pdf. This
description forms part of our auditor's report.

believes that there would be no efficiencies gained by establishing

Although the Board does not have a separate Audit and Risk
Committee, it had adopted an Audit and Risk Committee Charter,
which is disclosed on the Company’s website.
During the Reporting Period, items that are usually required to be
discussed by an Audit and Risk Committee are marked as separate
agenda items at Board meetings when required, and when the
Board convened to address matters as the Audit and Risk
Committee it carried out the functions which are delegated to it in
the Company’s Audit and Risk Committee Charter. The Board deals
with any conflicts of interest that occur when it performs the
functions of an Audit and Risk, Committee by ensuring that any
Director with a conflicting interest is not party to the relevant
discussions.
During the Reporting Period, the Board was responsible for the
initial appointment of the external auditor and the appointment of
a new external auditor when any vacancy arises. Candidates for the
position of external auditor must demonstrate complete
independence from the Company through the engagement period.
The Board may otherwise select an external auditor based on
criteria relevant to the Company's business and circumstances. The
performance of the external auditor was reviewed on an annual
basis by the Board.
The Company has an established Procedure for the Selection,
Appointment and Rotation of its External Auditor, which is an
annexure to the Corporate Governance Plan.
