Chairman’s letter to shareholders 

Chairman’s Letter to Shareholders 

Dear Shareholders, 

It is with great pleasure that I present Renaissance Uranium’s Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2012, our 
first full year as an ASX-listed company. 

During  this  past  year,  Renaissance  advanced  and  expanded  our  portfolio  of  highly  prospective  exploration 
properties,  creating  multiple  opportunities  for  potential  imminent  mineral  discoveries.    Whilst  the  significant 
progress that has been made by Renaissance during the past year has not been reflected in our current share 
price,  we  are  optimistic  that  the  upcoming  exploration  programs  may  provide  a  catalyst  for  the  re-rating  of  the 
company by the equity markets. 

Our strategy has, and will continue to, focus on prospects for near-term, economic discoveries on projects where 
we are able to apply innovative, modern exploration techniques to quickly pass into cost-effective, targeted drill 
campaigns.     

During the year, this strategy resulted in the advancement of several of our prospects in South Australia, where our 
exploration produced exciting near-term discovery prospects for copper and gold, as well as creating medium-term 
opportunities in uranium.    Of particular note were achievements at: 

  Gairdner,  where  we  confirmed  multiple  prospects  for  world-class,  iron-oxide,  copper-gold-uranium 

targets, as well as prospects for silver;   

  Olary,  where  our  initial  scout  drilling  and  continued  geochemical  sampling  has  established  excellent 
prospects for a near-surface gold operation, similar to the nearby operational White Dam gold mine; and 

  Warrior, an historic advanced uranium project, which we recently acquired after an extensive review of 

low-cost uranium opportunities. 

In the coming months, we look forward to conducting drill testing at each of the above prospects. 

In addition, we have established a pipeline of high quality exploration projects that offer further opportunities for 
mineral discovery as our work programs progress towards drilling.    These projects include our Cowell (graphite) 
and  Spencer  (copper)  prospects  in  the  Eyre  Peninsula,  our  Tanners  Dam  Project  (IOCGU  and  uranium)  in  the 
Central Gawler Craton and our newly acquired Frome Project (uranium) in the Frome Basin. 

In  formulating  and  executing  our  strategy,  we  have  also  taken  into  account  the  uncertainty  and  volatility  in  the 
global  markets  over  the  past  year.    While  maintaining  an  aggressive  exploration  program,  with  multiple  active 
projects, we have also remained committed to cost effective exploration, focusing our efforts in our home state of 
South Australia, where our exploration team has made significant mineral discoveries in the past.    We have also 
minimised costs by focusing on accessible, near surface projects, where we can quickly advance toward targeted 
drill programs.    As a result, we have succeeded in maintaining a strong cash position, with $5.1 million cash on 
hand as of 30 June 2012.         

From  a  commodity  perspective,  we  have  focused  on  projects  where  our  drilling  is  most  likely  to  rapidly  deliver 
economic deposits.    This has resulted in pending discovery opportunities in copper and gold, as well as additional 
prospects in silver and graphite.    At the same time, we have created medium-term, low-cost opportunities in the 
uranium sector that offer the potential to benefit from changes in investor sentiment toward uranium going forward.   
With our current projects, as well as our experienced management team, we move forward with enthusiasm for our 
prospects in the current year. 

On behalf on my Board and fellow shareholders, I thank our Managing Director, David Christensen and the entire 
Renaissance  team  for  their  dedicated  work  during  an  exciting  and  challenging  year.    I  also  extend  my  sincere 
thanks to you, our shareholders, for your continued support. 

Yours faithfully,   

Stephen Bizzell 
Chairman

Annual Report 2012 RENAISSANCE URANIUM LIMITED |    2 

Review of Operations 

Renaissance Uranium Limited (the Company) is an Australian exploration company focused on the discovery and 
development  of  economically  viable  deposits  containing  uranium,  gold,  copper  and  associated  minerals.    The 
Company  holds  multiple  exploration  licenses,  with  activity  directed  particularly  toward  projects  located  in 
established mineral provinces of South Australia. 

The Company is an active, early-stage explorer, with multiple projects, at or advancing towards, discovery phase 
drill programs.    We are based in South Australia, where in previous roles our experienced exploration team has 
participated directly in the discovery of several significant uranium, gold, copper and other base metals deposits. 
Our strategy is to create near-term, economic discovery opportunities by focusing on projects where we are able to 
apply innovative, modern exploration techniques to quickly pass into cost-effective, targeted drill campaigns.     

During  the  year,  we  undertook  several  exploration  programs,  including  at  our  Gairdner  Project  in  the  Central 
Gawler  Craton  of  South  Australia,  where  we  are  targeting  iron-oxide,  copper-gold-uranium  (IOCGU)  and  silver.   
After  completing  extensive  on-ground  magnetic  and  gravity  surveys,  we  have  now  identified  multiple  IOCGU 
targets for imminent drill programs.    Our extensive geochemical soil sampling program has resulted in additional 
silver  drill  targets.    During  the  year,  we  also  acquired  the  right  to  earn-into  80%  of  an  adjacent  tenement, 
consolidating our position in the Gairdner district. We expect to commence drilling at Gairdner in the first half of the 
current year. 

At our Olary Project in eastern South Australia, our initial scout drilling program returned multiple intersections of 
elevated, near-surface oxide-gold over soil gold anomalies that we identified through geochemical soil sampling.   
Recently,  our  continued  soil-sampling  identified  additional  anomalous  gold  zones,  with  results  that  included  the 
highest gold value to date from the program.    In the coming year, we expect to recommence drilling, with a goal of 
locating economic, near-surface oxide-gold deposits, similar in style to the nearby White Dam gold mine. 

With respect to uranium, our strategy during the year has been to limit exploration spending, while maintaining or 
acquiring  drill-ready  exploration  projects  that  offer  opportunities  for  economic  discoveries  either  under  present 
market  conditions  or  in  the  event  of  improved  investor  sentiment.    After  completing  an  extensive  review  of 
uranium  opportunities,  we  recently  completed  two  low-cost  acquisitions,  acquiring  rights  to  the  historic  Warrior 
uranium project in the Central Gawler Craton and a large land position in the uranium-rich Frome Basin of South 
Australia.    We were also awarded a grant by the South Australian government to drill test uranium/IOCGU targets 
at our Tanners Dam Project, which is also located in South Australia’s Central Gawler Craton.     

We advanced several other projects through reconnaissance phases, identifying targets for on site evaluation and 
creating  additional  prospects  for  economic  discovery  from  near-term  drill  programs.      These  reconnaissance 
stage projects include two prospects in the Eyre Peninsula of South Australia: our Cowell Prospect, where we are 
targeting graphite, and our Eastern Eyre project, where we are exploring for copper and other base metals.    We 
also  identified  multiple  copper  targets  at  our  Marree  Project  in  the  Adelaide  Fold  Belt.  We  expect  to  continue 
advancing toward drilling on these projects in the current year. 

We have expanded our tenement holdings in South Australia, through acquisition, joint venture and applications for 
mineral exploration licences by nearly 5,900 km2.    These new tenements, together with our active reconnaissance 
exploration projects, provide us with a strong pipeline of potential projects for future growth and development. 

We are delighted to report that our health and safety record has been very strong, with no reportable events and no 
workdays lost due to accidents.    The Company is committed to keeping a safe workplace and ensuring that all of 
our employees and contractors remain vigilant to health and safety issues.    We will continue to monitor our health 
and safety management systems to minimise risks, incidents and injuries. 

In the past year, we have had opportunities to engage positively with key groups with interests in the areas covered 
by our mineral tenements, including landowners, traditional owners and the Government.    We remain focused on 
fostering strong working relationships with these groups, as well as all stakeholders, to deliver positive outcomes 
for all concerned as we move forward in the coming year.

Gairdner Project 

Location: 

Gawler Craton (South Australia) 

Tenements: 

EL 4675 (100%) and EL 4836 (earning 80%) 

Area: 

1,072 km2 

Target:   

IOCGU and silver 

At the Gairdner Project, exploration during the reporting period focused on base metal and silver targets within a host rock 
succession of Mesoproterozoic Gawler Range Volcanics and co-magmatic Hiltaba intrusions.    The Company considers 
the  margins  of  the  granite  and  volcanics  prospective  for  large-scale  discoveries  of  economic  deposits  containing,  in 
particular, IOCGU and silver. 

Figure 2.    Gairdner Project tenements, showing regional geology and principal prospects confirmed 
from recent geophysical surveys and soil sampling 

The project consists of 100%-owned EL 4675, and EL 4836.    During the reporting period, Renaissance acquired a right 
to earn into 80% of EL 4836 from SAEX Pty Ltd. 

The Company initially identified geophysical IOCGU targets within the Gairdner Project from regional aeromagnetic data, 
which  indicated  a  large  complex  of  increased  magnetic  response  over  multiple  zones covering both  EL  4675 and  EL 
4836.    To  better  identify  potential  for  sufficient  volume  to  support  economic  IOCGU  mineralisation,  the  Company 
completed additional detailed geophysical surveys during the reporting period and has now confirmed significant excess 
mass consistent with IOCGU-style mineralisation over the Border and Kokatha anomalies. 

The  Company’s  exploration  for  silver  at  the  Gairdner  Project  is  focused  on  identifying  areas  of  anomalous  silver 
geochemistry in extensive areas of inferred Lower Gawler Range Volcanics.    During the reporting period, the Company 
completed wide-spaced and infill soil sampling, identifying multiple silver prospects. 

The Company expects to commence drill testing of prospective IOCGU and silver targets in the current year.

Olary Project 

Location: 

Southern Curnamona Province (South Australia) 

Tenements: 

EL 4394 (Cutana) (100%) and EL 4399 (Outalpa) 

Area: 

569 km2 

Target:   

Gold   

The exploration program at the Olary Project during the reporting period targeted gold and associated mineralisation, with 
a particular emphasis on oxide-gold deposits, similar in style to the nearby White Dam gold, owned by Polymetals Mining 
Limited (ASX: PLY) and Exco Resources Limited (ASX: EXS). 

Figure 3.    Olary Project, showing gold prospects and elevated gold intersections 

During the reporting period, the Company completed a reconnaissance drill program over soil gold targets identified from 
soil geochemical sampling in EL 4399 (Cutana).    This initial scout program resulted in multiple anomalous, near-surface 
gold intercepts over wide areas, including elevated intersections at two partially drilled prospects, Heinrichs and Tepco. 
The coincidence between soil gold values and oxidized gold intersections during scout drilling suggests to the Company 
that soil geochemical sampling is an effective technique to identify underlying gold, meriting additional application in other 
prospective  areas  within  the  Olary  Project.    As  a  result,  later  in  the  reporting  period,  the  Company  completed 
broad-spaced,  multi-element  geochemical  soil  sampling  over  prospective  portions  of  EL  4399  (Outalpa).    From  its 
assessment of the anomalous gold results, the Company identified three anomalous zones, including Duckpond, where 
sampling  returned  a  peak  gold  response  in  Proterozoic  gneiss  of  161  ppb,  the  highest  gold  value  to  date  from  the 
Company’s soil sampling program within the project area.    To prioritise anomalies within the defined anomalous zones, 
the Company plans to conduct close-spaced, infill geochemical sampling to define drilling positions for first pass drilling 
over defined targets. 

After completing infill sampling over Duckpond and other recently identified anomalies, the Company intends to resume 
drill testing at Heinrichs, Tepco and other high priority targets.

Warrior Project 

Location: 

Gawler Craton (South Australia) 

Tenements: 

EL 4570 (100%) 

Area: 

165 km2 

Target:   

Sandstone-hosted uranium 

During  the  reporting  period,  the  Company  conducted  a  comprehensive  review  of  uranium  projects.  This  review 
resulted in the Company acquiring rights to the historic Warrior uranium project, over which extensive drilling by PNC 
Exploration Pty Ltd (PNC) in the 1970s defined multiple zones of elevated uranium.    The Company acquired 100% of 
the project, consisting of EL 4570, from Hillment Pty Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Stellar Resources Limited (ASX: 
SRZ), in exchange for a residual net smelter royalty of 1%. 

Figure 4.    Map of significant uranium occurrences (from Geoscience Australia), showing Warrior project and 
other South Australian uranium projects 

The Warrior uranium project was discovered in the late 1970s by PNC, the former Japanese government sponsored 
uranium  exploration  company.    PNC  identified  seven  discrete  zones  of  elevated  uranium  mineralisation  which  fall 
within EL 4570.    Subsequent to PNC relinquishing the Warrior project in the early 1980s during a period of historically 
low uranium prices, exploration from 2005 to 2008 identified prospective extensions to the Warrior paleochannel, as 
well as confirming the presence of elevated uranium throughout the project area. 

Through the use of additional coring drilling and a prompt fission neutron (PFN) tool, in both the elevated uranium zones 
discovered by PNC, as well as extensions to the paleochannels suggested by later exploration work,  the Company 
considers Warrior to offer significant prospects for the delineation of an economic uranium ore body.    The Company’s 
initial assessment of the existing drill data suggests a significant variation between air core results and results obtained 
from  the  limited  core sampling  available from  adjacent  holes.    As  an  initial  work  program,  the  Company  intends  to 
assess all historic drill data available over the project area to delineate targets for testing using core drilling and rotary 
mud  drilling  with  a  PFN  probe.    Subsequently,  the  Company  anticipates  drill  testing  in  both  the  uranium  zones 
delineated by PNC, as well as new uranium zones within the Warrior paleochannel.

Cowell Prospect 

Location: 

Eastern Eyre Peninsula (South Australia) 

Tenements: 

EL 3978 (earning 75%) 

Area: 

840 km2 

Target:   

Graphite   

During  the  reporting  period,  as  part  of  its  continual  assessment  of  exploration  opportunities  within  its  project 
portfolio,  the Company  identified  prospectivity  for  graphite  at  its  Cowell  Prospect,  which  is  adjacent  to  graphite 
prospects that have been reported by Archer Exploration Limited (ASX: AXE).    The Cowell Prospect is located 
within EL 3978 of the Company’s Pirie Basin Project. 

Figure 5. Cowell Prospect, showing proposed coverage area 
for airborne electromagnetic (AEM) survey 

The Company  considers the geology  and  the  location  of  the  Cowell  Prospect to  offer  strong  graphite  potential.    The 
project area is well-positioned in an emerging graphite district, with advanced graphite exploration being undertaken by 
several  mineral  explorers  within  the  Eyre  Peninsula.    On  the  adjacent  tenement  to  the  west  Archer  Exploration  has 
identified its Wilklow Prospect along strike from the Cowell Prospect.    Within the Company’s project area, immediately to 
the east, untested regional shear zone in Lower Proterozoic sediments offer the ideal setting for large graphite deposits. 
To identify potential graphite drill targets, the Company intends to conduct an airborne electromagnetic survey over the 
shear zones and other prospective graphite areas within EL 3978.

Tanners Dam Project 

Location: 

Central Gawler Craton (South Australia) 

Tenements: 

EL 4814 (100%) and ELA 2011/304 (100%) 

Area: 

583 km2 

Target:   

Volcanic-hosted uranium and IOCGU   

Exploration during the reporting period at Tanners Dam targeted volcanic-hosted uranium and IOCGU associated with 
high-level Hiltaba granite intruded into the base of a massive felsic lava pile. 

Figure 6.    Tanners Dam magnetic image, showing granite (blue) intruding over 

volcanics (red and green) 

Key exploration features at Tanner Dam include: 

  Project  tenements  coincident  with  major  structural  corridor.   The  Tanners  Dam  Project  is  located 
coincident with a major northwest to southeast crustal terrain boundary, a critical tectonic element in the location 
of Olympic Dam. 

 

  High  mineralization  potential.   Within  the  project  areas,  geochemical  data  indicates  anomalous  values  of 
fluorine, molybdenum, arsenic and uranium typical of the global magmatic uranium-fluorine-lithophile element 
association.   
Large  magnetic  low  body.   Geophysical  surveys  show  a  large  magnetic  low,  suggestive  of  magnetite 
destruction by hydrothermal fluids. This has several peripheral magnetic lows, coincident radiometric highs and 
positive gravity anomalies.   
Felsic lava pile above a Hiltaba granite magma chamber. Tanners Dam provides a geological environment 
comparable to Streltsovska, Russia’s pre-eminent uranium region, where uranium and fluorite were sourced by 
hydrothermal  leaching  of a  felsic  lava  pile  above  a caldera magma  chamber.  At  Tanners  Dam, geochemical 
anomalism,  including  quartz  veins  carrying  up  to  10%  fluorite  in  existing  shallow  drill-holes,  supports  this 
geological model. 

 

During the reporting period, the Company was awarded a grant to fund up to $40,000 of drilling pursuant to the South 
Australian Government’s Plan for Accelerating Exploration (PACE) Initiative.    Renaissance is currently preparing for drill 
testing of defined target zones.

Target:   

Sandstone-hosted uranium 

During the reporting period, as part of its continual assessment of available uranium projects, the Company identified 
and  acquired the Frome Project, a major strategic land position in the uranium-rich Frome Basin of South Australia.   
The  project  tenements  were  acquired  from  Frome  Uranium  Pty  Ltd  (Frome  Uranium),  a  subsidiary  of  Callabonna 
Uranium Limited (ASX: CUU) in exchange for 800,000 ordinary shares in the Company (representing approximately 
0.7% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares).   

Figure 7.    Newly acquired Frome tenements, showing location in relation to 
nearby uranium deposits 

The  newly  acquired  tenements  cover  an  extensive  area  of  4,572  km2,  within  an  area  that  hosts  several  significant 
uranium  deposits.    These  deposits  include  the  operating  Beverley  uranium  mine  (46.3  million  pounds  @  0.27% 
U3O8), as well as recently discovered uranium deposits at Four Mile (70.5 million pounds @ 0.33% U3O8) and Beverley 
North and Pepegoona (8.8 million pounds @ 0.18% U3O8). 

As  an  initial  work  program,  the  Company  intends  to  utilise  existing  airborne  geophysical  data  in  conjunction  with 
available drill-hole data to define preferred stratigraphic and structural settings consistent with Four Mile and Beverley.

Role of the remuneration committee 
The  board  carries  out  the  functions  of  the  Remuneration  and  Nominations  Committees  and  is  responsible  for 
reviewing and negotiating the compensation arrangements of senior executives. It assesses the appropriateness 
of the nature and amount of remuneration of such officers on a periodic basis by relevant employment market 
conditions with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality 
Board and executive team. The board is responsible for managing: 

  non-executive director fees 
  executive remuneration (directors and other executives), and 
 

the over-arching executive remuneration framework and incentive plan policies. 

Their objective is to ensure that remuneration policies and structures are fair and competitive and aligned with the 
long-term interests of the Group. 

The Corporate Governance Statement provides further information on the role of this committee. 

Relationship between remuneration and Group performance 
During the financial year, the Group has generated losses as its principal activity was exploration for uranium and 
associated  minerals  within  South  Australia  and  Northern  Territory.  As  the  Group  is  still  in  the  exploration  and 
evaluation stage, the link between remuneration, Group performance and shareholder wealth is tenuous.    Share 
prices are subject to the influence of metals prices and market sentiment toward the sector, and as such increases or 
decreases may occur quite independent of executive performance or remuneration. 

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration 

Non-executive directors 
Fees and payments to non-executive directors reflect the demands which are made on, and the responsibilities 
of,  the  directors.    Non-executive  directors'  fees  and  payments  are  reviewed  periodically  by  the  board.    The 
Chair's fees are determined independently to the fees of non-executive directors based on comparative roles in 
the  external  market.    The  Chair  is  not  present  at  any  discussions  relating  to  determination  of  his  own 
remuneration. 

Non-executive directors do not receive performance-based pay. 

Directors' fees 
The current base fees were established with effect from 15 December 2010. 

Non-executive directors' fees are determined within an aggregate directors' fee pool limit, which is periodically 
recommended for approval by shareholders.    The maximum currently stands at $350,000 per annum and was 
approved by a special resolution of the members of the Company on 5 August 2010. 

The following fees have applied:

Directors’ Report 

Remuneration report – audited (continued) 

Retirement allowances for non-executive directors 

In line with guidance from the ASX Corporate Governance Council on non-executive directors' remuneration, no 
retirement allowances are provided for non-executive directors.    Superannuation contributions required under 
the Australian superannuation guarantee legislation continue to be made as required and are deducted from the 
directors' overall fee entitlements. 

Executive pay 
The objective of the Group’s executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance is competitive and 
appropriate  for  the  results  delivered.    The  framework  aligns  executive  reward  with  achievement  of  strategic 
objectives and the creation of value for shareholders, and conforms  to market practice for delivery of reward.   
The  board  ensures  that  executive  reward  satisfies  the  following  key  criteria  for  good  reward  governance 
practices: 

  competitiveness and reasonableness; 
  acceptability to shareholders; 
  performance linkage / alignment of executive compensation; 
 
transparency; and 
  capital management. 

The Group has structured an executive remuneration framework that is market competitive and complimentary to 
the reward strategy of the organisation. 

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration   

The framework provides a mix of fixed and long-term incentives. 

The board carries out the functions of the Remuneration and Nominations Committees and is responsible for 
reviewing and negotiating the compensation arrangements of senior executives. It assesses the appropriateness 
of the nature and amount of remuneration of such officers on a periodic basis by relevant employment market 
conditions with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high quality 
Board  and  executive  team.    The  board  manages  remuneration  and  incentive  policies  and  practices  and 
remuneration  packages  and  other  terms  of  employment  for  executive  directors,  other  senior  executives  and 
non-executive  directors.    The  Corporate  Governance  Statement  provides  further  information on  the  role of a 
Remuneration committee. 

The executive pay and reward framework has the following components: 

  base pay and benefits, including superannuation; and 
 

long-term incentives through the issue of unlisted share options. 

The combination of these comprises an executive's total remuneration. 

Base pay and benefits 
Base  pay  and  benefits  are  structured  as  a  total  employment  cost  package  which  may  be  delivered  as  a 
combination  of  cash  and  prescribed  non-financial  benefits, at  the  executives'  discretion  and  subject  to board 
approval. 

Executives are offered a competitive base pay that comprises the fixed component of pay and rewards to ensure 
base pay is set to reflect the market for a comparable role.    Base pay for executives is reviewed periodically to 
ensure the executive's pay is competitive with the market. 

There are no guaranteed base pay increases included in any executives' contracts.

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration (continued) 

Benefits 
Private health insurance benefits are provided to the Managing Director. 

Superannuation 
Retirement  benefits  are  delivered  via  superannuation  contributions  required  under 
the  Australian 
superannuation  guarantee  legislation.    Other  retirement  benefits  may  be  provided  directly  by  the  Group  if 
approved by shareholders. 

Long-term incentives 
Long-term incentives may be provided to directors, executives and consultants through the granting of unlisted 
share options. 

The  granting  of  unlisted  share  options  is  designed  to  provide  long-term  incentives  for  executives  to  deliver 
long-term shareholder returns.    The granting of such options is at the board's discretion and no individual has a 
contractual  right  to  receive  any  guaranteed  benefits.  The  options  are  issued  for  nil  consideration  and  have 
variable vesting dates, exercise prices and maturity dates, i.e. last date to exercise the options. 

Performance related compensation 
The Company currently has no formal performance related remuneration policy which governs the payment of 
annual  cash  bonuses  upon  meeting  pre-determined  performance  targets.  However,  the  board  may  consider 
performance related remuneration in the form of cash or share options when they consider such to be warranted. 

Details of remuneration 

Amounts of remuneration

These options were not issued based on performance criteria as the Board does not consider this appropriate for a 
junior  exploration  company.    The  options  were  issued  to  directors  and  executives  of  the  Company  to  align 
comparative shareholder return and reward for directors and executives. 

Options granted carry no dividend or voting rights. There are no amounts paid or payable on the granting of options. 

When exercisable, each option is convertible into one ordinary share on exercise. Options may be exercised at any 
time from the date of vesting to the date of their expiry.

Indemnification and insurance of directors, officers and auditor 
The Company has established an insurance policy to indemnify all directors and officers against all liabilities 
to a third party that may arise from their position as directors or officers of the Company and its controlled 
entities, except where the liability arises out of conduct involving a lack of good faith. 

During  the  financial  year,  the  Company  paid  a  premium  in  respect  of  a  contract  insuring  directors, 
secretaries and executive officers of the Company and its controlled entities against a liability incurred as 
director, secretary or executive officer to the extent permitted by the Corporations Act 2001. The contract of 
insurance prohibits disclosure of the nature of the liability and the amount of the premium. 

The Company has not otherwise, during or since the end of the financial year, except to the extent permitted 
by  law,  indemnified  or  agreed  to  indemnify  an  officer or  auditor  of the  Company  or  any  of  its controlled 
entities against a liability incurred as such an officer or auditor.

Directors’ Report 

Non-audit services (continued) 
The directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services, during the year, by the auditor 
(or by another person or firm on behalf of the auditor), is compatible with the general standard of 
independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001. 

On the advice of the audit committee, the directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit 
services  by  the  auditor,  as  set  out  above,  did  not  compromise  the  auditor  independence 
requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons: 

  all non-audit services have been reviewed by the audit committee to ensure that they do 

not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and 

  none  of  the  non-audit  services  undermine  the  general  principles  relating  to  auditor 
independence as set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants. 

Proceedings on behalf of the Company 

No person has applied to the Court under section 237 of the  Corporations Act 2001 for leave to 
bring  proceedings  on  behalf  of  the  Company,  or  to  intervene  in  any  proceedings  to  which  the 
Company is a party, for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the Company for all or part 
of those proceedings. 

No proceedings have been brought or intervened in on behalf of the  Company with leave of the 
Court under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001. 

Auditor’s Independence Declaration 

A  copy  of  the  auditor's  independence  declaration  as  required  under  section  307C  of  the 
Corporations Act 2001 is set out on page 22. 

This report is made in accordance with a resolution of directors.

The  Company’s  Corporate  Governance  Statement  is  structured  with  reference  to  the  Australian  Securities 
Exchange  (“ASX”)  Corporate  Governance  Council’s  (the  “Council”)  “Corporate  Governance  Principles  and 
Recommendations, 2nd Edition”, which are as follows: 

Principle 1 
Principle 2 
Principle 3 
Principle 4 
Principle 5 
Principle 6   
Principle 7 
Principle 8 

Lay solid foundations for management and oversight 
Structure the board to add value 
Promote ethical and responsible decision making 
Safeguard integrity in financial reporting 
Make timely and balanced disclosure 
Respect the rights of shareholders 
Recognise and manage risk 
Remunerate fairly and responsibly 

A copy of the eight Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations can be found on the ASX’s website. 

The Board is of the view that with the exception of the departures from the ASX Guidelines as set out below, it 
otherwise complies with all of the ASX Guidelines. 

ASX Principles   
and recommendations 

Summary of the Group’s   
Position 

Principle 1 – Lay solid foundations for management and oversight 
Recommendation 1.2 – Companies should 
disclose the process for evaluating the 
performance of senior executives 

The Board has not established a separate nomination committee.     
The directors consider that the Group is not of a size nor are its 
affairs of such complexity as to justify the formation of any other 
special or separate committees at this time. In the absence of a 
formally  constituted  nomination  committee,  the  Board  acts  as  a 
nomination  committee.    Members  of  the  Board  have  been 
brought  together  to  provide  a  blend  of  qualifications,  skills  and 
national  and  international  experience  required  for  managing  a 
company operating within the mining industry.     

Principle 2 – Structure the board to add value 
Recommendation 2.1 – A majority of the 
Board should be independent directors 

While 
this 
the  Group  does  not  presently  comply  with 
recommendation,  the  Group  may  consider  appointing  further 
independent  directors  in  the  future.    The  Group  believes  that 
given the size and scale of its operations, non-compliance by the 
Group  with  this  recommendation  will  not  be  detrimental  to  the 
Group. 

Recommendation 2.4 – The board should 
establish a nomination committee 

The Board’s view is that the Group is not currently of the size to 
justify  the  formation  of  a  separate  nomination  committee.    The 
Board currently performs the functions of a nomination committee 
and  where  necessary  will  seek  advice  of  external  advisors  in 
relation  to  this  role.    The  Board  shall,  upon  the  Group  reaching 
the  requisite  corporate  and  commercial  maturity,  approve  the 
constitution  of  a  nomination  committee  to  assist  the  Board  in 
relation to the appointment of Directors and senior management.

ASX Principles   
and recommendations 

Summary of the Group’s   
Position 

Principle 4 – Safeguard integrity in financial reporting 
Recommendation 4.2 – The audit 
committee should be structured so that it: 
-  Consists  only  of  non-executive 

directors 

-  Consists of a majority of independent 

directors 

-  Is  chaired  by  an  independent  chair, 

who is not chair of the board 

-  Has at least 3 members 

Mr Martin is a non-executive director and the current Chairman 
of the Audit and Risk Management Committee. Mr  Martin  is a 
director of SLRI Pty Ltd and St Lucia Capital Fund Pty Ltd, which 
act  as  corporate  trustees  for  trust  funds  which  together  are 
substantial  (greater  than  5%)  shareholders  in  the  Company.   
Mr  Martin  is  a  beneficiary  of  a  trust  ultimately  holding  a  more 
than  20%  interest  in  these  trust  funds  and  as  such,  does  not 
meet  the  independence  requirement  as  defined  in  the  ASX 
guidelines. 

Mr  Stephen  Bizzell  is  a  non-executive  director,  the  current 
Chairman  of  the  Board  and  a  member  of  the  Audit  and  Risk 
Management  Committee.  The  Group  does  not  consider  Mr 
Bizzell  to  be  an  independent  director  as  defined  in  the  ASX 
Guidelines  on  the  basis  that  he,  together  with  his  associated 
entities,  are  in  aggregate  a  substantial  (greater  than  5%) 
shareholder in the Group. 

Mr  McConachy  is  an  executive  director  and  a  member  of  the 
Audit  and  Risk  Management  Committee  and  has  business 
dealings with the Group as disclosed in note 19 to the financial 
statements.  He  is  also  a  substantial  (greater  than  5%) 
shareholder  in  the  Company  and  as  such  does  not  meet  the 
independence requirement as defined in the ASX guidelines. 

On the basis of above information, the Group is of the view that 
that  the  Audit  and  Risk  Management  Committee  does  not 
consist of a majority of independent directors.    While the Group 
does not presently comply with this Recommendation 4.2, the 
Group may consider appointing further independent Directors in 
the future.    The Group believes that given the size and scale of 
its  operations,  non-compliance  by 
this 
the  Group  with 
Recommendation 4.2 will not be detrimental to the Group. 

Principle 8 - Remunerate fairly and responsibly 
Recommendation 8.1 – The board should 
establish a remuneration committee 

The Board has not established a remuneration committee. The 
Board  considers  that  given  its  size,  no  efficiencies  or  other 
benefits would be gained by the establishing of such committee. 
The role of the remuneration committee is carried out by the full 
Board.  The  Group  has  adopted  a  Remuneration  Committee 
Charter,  which 
the  Company’s  Corporate 
in 
Governance  Charter  available  on  the  Company  website,

Board   

The Board has adopted a formal Board Charter that outlines the roles and responsibilities of directors and senior 
executives.    The Board Charter is publicly available on the Company website, www.renaissanceuranium.com.au. 

The skills, experience and expertise relevant to the position of director held by each director in office at the date of 
the  Annual  Report  is  included  in  the  Director’s  Report.  Corporate  Governance  Council  Recommendation  2.1 
requires a majority of the Board should be independent Directors. The Corporate Governance Council defines and 
independent director as a non-executive director who is not a member of management and who is free of any 
business or other relationship that could materially interfere with – or could reasonably be perceived to materially 
interfere with – the independent exercise of their judgement. 

In  the  context  of  director  independence  “materiality”  is  considered  from  both  the  Company  and  the  individual 
director’s perspective.    The determination of materiality requires consideration of both quantitative and qualitative 
elements.    An item is presumed to be quantitatively immaterial if it is equal or less than 10% of the appropriate 
base amount.    It is presumed to be material (unless there is qualitative evidence to the contrary) if it is equal to or 
greater than 10% of the appropriate base amount.    Qualitative factors considered included whether a relationship 
is strategically important, the competitive landscape, the nature of the relationship and the contractual or other 
arrangements governing it and other factors which point to the actual ability of the Director in question to shape the 
direction of the Company’s loyalty. 

Factors that may impact on a director’s independence are considered each time the Board meets. 

At the date of this report: 
In accordance with the Council’s definition of independence above, and the materiality thresholds set, no directors 
are considered to be independent:

Trading Policy 

The board has adopted a policy and procedure on dealing in the Company’s securities by Directors, officers and 
employees which prohibits dealing in the Company’s securities when those persons possess inside information 
until it has been released to the market and adequate time has passed for this to be reflected in the security’s 
prices, and during certain pre-determined windows. 

The  Company’s  policy  regarding  dealings  by  directors  in  the  Company’s  shares  is  that  directors  should  never 
engage in short term trading and should not enter into transactions when they are in possession of price sensitive 
information  not  yet  released  by  the  Company  to  the  market;  or  for  a  period  of  fourteen  (14)  days  prior  to  the 
scheduled  (per  ASX  Listing  Rules)  release  by  the  Company  of  (ASX),  Quarterly  Operations  and  Cash  Flow 
Reports or such shorter period as may be approved of by the Board of Directors after receipt of notice of intention 
to buy or sell by a director to other members of the Board. 

Directors will generally be permitted to engage in trading (subject to due notification being given to the Chairperson 
and Secretary) for a period commencing one (1) business day after the release of (ASX) Quarterly Operations and 
Cash Flow Reports to the market and for a period commencing one (1) business day following the release of price 
sensitive information to the market which allows a reasonable period of time for the information to be disseminated 
among members of the public. 

Remuneration and Nomination Committees 

Due to the  size and scale of operations, the  Company does not have separately established Remuneration or 
Nomination Committees. The full Board carries out the functions of Remuneration and Nomination Committees, 
operating under charters (available on the Company website, www.renaissanceuranium.com.au) approved by the 
Board.   

Audit and Risk Management Committee 

The Board has established an Audit and Risk Management Committee, which operates under a charter approved 
by the Board. It is the Board’s responsibility to ensure that an effective internal control framework exists within the 
Company.    This includes internal controls to deal with both the effectiveness and efficiency of significant business 
processes,  the  safeguarding  of  assets,  the  maintenance  of  proper  accounting  records,  and  the  reliability  of 
financial  information  as  well  as  non-financial  considerations  such  as  the  benchmarking  of  operational  key 
performance indicators.    The Board has delegated the responsibility for the establishment and maintenance of a 
framework of internal control and ethical standards for the management of the  Company to the Audit and Risk 
Management Committee. 

The Committee also provides the Board with additional assurance regarding the reliability of financial information 
for  inclusion  in  the  financial  reports.    All  members  of  the  Audit  and  Risk  Management  Committee  are 
Non-Executive Directors. 

The members of the Audit and Risk Management Committee at the date of this report are: 

  Andrew Martin (Chairman) 
  Stephen Bizzell 
  Geoffrey McConachy

The  Company  has  developed  a  basic  framework  for  risk  management  and  internal  compliance  and  control 
systems which cover organisational, financial and operational aspects of the Company’s affairs.    Further details of 
the  Company’s  Risk  management,  policies  can  be  found  within  the  Audit  and  Risk  Management  Committee 
Charter available on the Company’s website www.renaissanceuranium.com.au. 

Recommendation 7.2 requires that the Board disclose that management has reported to it as to the effectiveness 
of  the  Company’s  management  of  its  material  business  risks.    Business  risks  are  considered  regularly  by  the 
Board and management. 

As required by Recommendation 7.3, the Board has received written assurances from the Managing Director and 
Chief  Financial  Officer  that  to  the  best  of  their  knowledge  and  belief,  the  declaration  provided  by  them  in 
accordance with section 295A of the Corporations Act is founded on a sound system of risk management and 
internal control and that they system is operating effectively in all material respects in relation to financial reporting 
risks.   

Performance Evaluation 

The  full  Board,  in  carrying  out  the  functions  of  the  Remuneration  and  Nomination  Committees,  considers 
remuneration and nomination issues annually and otherwise as required in conjunction with the regular meetings 
of the Board. 

The performance of the individual members of the Board is considered at the regular meetings of the Board.    No 
formal performance evaluation of the directors was undertaken during the year ended 30 June 2012.    The Board 
intends  to  undertake  formal  evaluations  during  the  current  financial  year  against  indicators  aligned  with  the 
financial and non-financial objectives of the Company. 

Remuneration 

It is the Company’s objective to provide maximum stakeholder benefit through the retention of a high quality Board 
and  Executive  team  by  remunerating  directors  and  key  executives  fairly  and  appropriately  with  reference  to 
relevant and employment market conditions.    To assist in achieving this objective, the Board links the nature and 
amount of Executive Director’s and Officer’s emoluments to the  Group’s financial and operations performance. 
The expected outcomes of the remuneration structure are: 

 
 
 

retention and motivation of key Executives 
attraction of quality management to the Group 
performance incentives which allow Executives to share the rewards of the success of the Group 

For  details  on  the  amount  of  remuneration  and  all  monetary  and  non-monetary  components  for  each  of  the 
(Non-Director) Executives during the period, and for all Directors, please refer to the Remuneration Report within 
the Directors’ Report. In relation to the payment of bonuses, options and other incentive payments, discretion is 
exercised by the Board, having regard to the overall performance of the  Company and the performance of the 
individual during the period. 

There  is  no  scheme  to  provide  retirement  benefits,  other  than  statutory  superannuation,  to  Non-Executive 
Directors. 

The Board is responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 

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 years presented, unless otherwise stated.   
The financial statements are for the Group consisting of Renaissance Uranium Limited (''Company'' or ''Parent 
Entity'')  and its  subsidiaries. Renaissance  Uranium  Limited  is  a  for-profit entity  for  the purpose  of  preparing 
these financial statements. 

(a)  Basis of preparation 

These  general  purpose  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  Australian  Accounting 
Standards,  other  authoritative  pronouncements  of  the  Australian  Accounting  Standards  Board  and  the 
Corporations Act 2001. 

The presentation currency used in this financial report is Australian dollars. 

(i)  Compliance with IFRS 
The consolidated financial statements of the Group also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards 
(IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). 

(ii)  Historical cost convention 
These  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  under  the  historical  cost  convention,  as  modified  by  the 
revaluation  of  available-for-sale  investments  and  financial  assets  and  liabilities  (including  derivative  financial 
instruments) at fair value through profit and loss. 

(iii)  Going Concern 
The  financial statements  have  been  prepared  on  a  going concern  basis  which  contemplates  the  continuity  of 
normal  business  activities  and  the  realisation  of  assets  and  discharge  of  liabilities  in  the  ordinary  course  of 
business.  This  includes  the  realisation  of  capitalised  exploration  expenditure  of  $4,291,316  (30  June  2011: 
$2,223,025). Whilst the directors believe sufficient funds are held for commitments over the next 12 months, the 
ability of the Group beyond that period, to maintain continuity of normal business activities and to pay its debts as 
and when they fall due and to recover the carrying value of its areas of interest, is dependent upon the ability of 
the  Company  to  successfully  raise  additional  capital  and/or  the  successful  exploration  and  subsequent 
exploitation of its areas of interest through sale or development. 

(b)  Principles of consolidation 

(i)  Subsidiaries 
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of the Company as 
at 30 June 2012 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended.    The Company and its subsidiaries 
together are referred to in these financial statements as the Group or the consolidated entity. 

Subsidiaries  are  all  those  entities  over  which  the  Group  has  the  power  to  govern  the  financial  and  operating 
policies, generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one-half of the voting rights.    The existence and 
effect  of  potential  voting  rights  that  are  currently  exercisable  or  convertible  are  considered  when  assessing 
whether the Group controls another entity. 

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

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between consolidated companies are 
eliminated.    Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of 
the  asset  transferred.    Accounting  policies  of  subsidiaries  have  been  changed  where  necessary  to  ensure 
consistency with the policies adopted by the Group (refer to note 1(h)). 

(ii) 
Joint ventures 
Jointly controlled assets 
The proportionate interests in the assets, liabilities and expenses of a joint venture activity have been 
incorporated in the financial statements under the appropriate headings.    Details of the joint venture 
are set out in note 25.

1  Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

(c)  Foreign currency translation 

Functional and presentation currency 

(i) 
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's entities are measured using the currency of the 
primary  economic  environment  in  which  it  operates  (‘the  functional  currency').    The  consolidated  financial 
statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company's functional and presentation currency. 

(ii)  Transactions and balances 
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at 
the  dates  of  the  transactions.    Foreign  exchange  gains  and  losses  resulting  from  the  settlement  of  such 
transactions and from the translation at year end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated 
in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss, except when they are deferred in equity as qualifying cash 
flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges or are attributable to part of the net investment in a foreign 
operation. 

Foreign  exchange  gains  and  losses  that  relate  to  borrowings  are  presented  in  the  consolidated  income 
statement, within finance costs.    All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the consolidated 
income statement on a net basis within other income or other expenses. 

(d)  Revenue recognition 

Revenue  is  measured  at  the  fair  value  of  the  consideration  received  or  receivable.    Amounts  disclosed  as 
revenue are net of returns, trade allowances and duties and taxes paid.    Interest income is recognised on a time 
proportion basis using the effective interest method. 

(e)  Cash and cash equivalents 

For the purpose of presentation in the statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on 
hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term and highly liquid investments with original 
maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to 
an insignificant risk of changes in value. 

(f)  Trade receivables 

Trade  and  other  receivables  are  recognised  initially  at  cost  less  any  impairment  losses.    Trade  and  other 
receivables  are  generally  due  for  settlement  within  30  days.    They  are  presented  as  current  assets  unless 
collection is not expected for more than 12 months after the reporting date. 

(g) 

Income tax 

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

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

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

 
 
 
39    | RENAISSANCE URANIUM LIMITED Annual Report 2012 

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 

1  Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

(g)    Income tax (continued) 

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

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

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

(h)  Business combinations 

The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations, regardless of whether 
equity instruments or other assets are acquired.    The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary 
comprises the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the 
Group.    The  consideration  transferred  also  includes  the  fair  value  of  any  asset  or  liability  resulting  from  a 
contingent  consideration  arrangement  and  the  fair  value  of  any  pre-existing  equity  interest  in  the  subsidiary.   
Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.    Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent 
liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at 
the acquisition date.    On an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, the Group recognises any non-controlling interest 
in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s net 
identifiable assets. 

The excess of the consideration transferred the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the 
acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the Group's share 
of the net identifiable assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.    If those amounts are less than the fair value of 
the net identifiable assets of the subsidiary acquired and the measurement of all amounts has been reviewed, the 
difference is recognised directly in profit or loss as a bargain purchase. 

Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted 
to their present value as at the date of exchange.    The discount rate used is the entity's incremental borrowing 
rate,  being  the  rate  at  which  a  similar  borrowing  could  be  obtained  from  an  independent  financier  under 
comparable terms and conditions. 

Contingent consideration is classified either as equity or a financial liability.    Amounts classified as a financial 
liability are subsequently remeasured to fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. 

(i) 

Impairment of assets 

Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested 
annually for impairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be 
impaired. Other assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes 
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.    An impairment loss is recognised 
for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.    The recoverable amount 
is  the  higher  of  an  asset’s  fair  value  less  costs  to  sell  and  value  in  use.    For  the  purposes  of  assessing 
impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash 
generating units). 

Non-financial assets other than goodwill that have previously been impaired are reviewed for possible reversal of 
impairment at each reporting date. 

(j)  Property, plant and equipment 

All plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less depreciation.    Historical cost includes expenditure that is 
directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. 

The  cost of  an  item  of  plant and  equipment  also includes the  initial  estimate  of  the costs  of  dismantling  and 
removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located.

1  Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

(j)    Property, plant and Equipment (continued) 

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 cost 
of the item 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 
reporting period in which they are incurred. 

Depreciation on plant and equipment (excluding land) is calculated on a straight line basis over the estimated 
useful life of the asset. 

The expected useful lives in the current and comparative periods are as follows: 

- 

  Plant and equipment 

3 – 10 years 

The  assets'  residual  values  and  useful  lives  are  reviewed,  and  adjusted  if  appropriate,  at  the  end  of  each 
reporting period. 

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 (note 1(i)). 

Gains  and  losses  on  disposals  are  determined  by  comparing  proceeds  with  carrying  amount.    These  are 
included in the income statement.   

(k)  Exploration and evaluation expenditure 

Exploration  and  evaluation  expenditure  is  carried  forward  in  the  financial  statements,  in  respect  of  areas  of 
interest for which the rights of tenure are current and where: 

  (i)  such costs are  expected  to  be  recouped  through successful  development  and  exploitation  of  the  area  of 
interest, or alternatively, by its sale; or 

(ii) exploration and/or evaluation activities in the area of interest have not yet reached a stage which permits a 
reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves and while active and 
significant operations in, or in relation to, the area are continuing. 

Exploration expenditure incurred that does not satisfy the policy stated above is expensed in the period in which 
it  is  incurred.    Exploration  expenditure  that  has  been  capitalised  which  no  longer  satisfies  the  policy  stated 
above is written off in the period in which that decision is made. 

The net carrying value of each area of interest is reviewed regularly and, to the extent to which this value exceeds 
its recoverable value, that excess is provided for or written off in the year in which this is determined. 

(l)  Trade and other payables 

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of financial year 
which are unpaid.    The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.    Trade and 
other  payables  are  presented  as  current  liabilities  unless  an  unconditional  right  exists  to  defer  payment  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. 

(m)  Provisions 

Provisions for legal claims are recognised when: the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a 
result of past events; it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; 
and the amount has been reliably estimated.    Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. 

Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is 
determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole.    A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of 
an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small. 

The Group has obligations to restore and rehabilitate certain areas where drilling has occurred on exploration 
tenements. These obligations are currently being met as the drilling is completed and as such no provision has 
been recognised.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 

1  Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

(n)  Employee benefits 

(i)  Short-term obligations 
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and annual leave and accumulating sick leave 
expected to be settled within 12 months after the end of each reporting period in which the employees render the 
related service 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.    The liability for annual leave and 
accumulating sick leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits.    All other short-term employee 
benefit obligations are presented as payables. 

(ii)  Retirement benefit obligations 
Defined contribution plans 

A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions into 
a  separate  entity  and  will  have  no  legal  or  constructive  obligation  to  pay  further  amounts.    Obligations  for 
contributions to defined contribution pension plans are recognised as an employee benefit expense in profit or 
loss when they are due. 

(iii)  Share-based payments 
Share-based compensation benefits are provided to directors, executives and consultants through the granting 
of share options.    Detailed information is set out in note 29. 

Options are granted for no cash consideration.    When these share options are granted, the  fair value of the 
options issued is recognised as an employee benefits expense with a corresponding increase in equity. 

The fair value at grant date is independently determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes 
into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the vesting and performance criteria, the impact of dilution, 
the non-tradeable nature of the option, 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. 

Upon  the  exercise  of  options,  the  balance  of  the  share-based  payments  reserve  relating  to  those  options  is 
transferred to share capital. 

(o)  Contributed equity 

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. 

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, 
from the proceeds. 

(p)  Earnings per share 

(i)  Basic earnings per share 
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing: 

 

 

the profit attributable to owners of the Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary 
shares 
by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year.(refer to note 28) 

(ii)  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 additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the 
conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.

(q)  Segment reporting 

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Managing 
Director, who is the Group's chief operating decision maker.    The Managing Director is responsible for allocating 
resources  and  assessing  performance  of  the  operating  segments.  Refer  to  note  4  for  segment  reporting 
information. 

(r)  Goods and Services Tax (GST) 

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

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

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

(s)  Parent Entity financial information 

The financial information for the  Parent Entity, Renaissance Uranium Limited, disclosed  in note 30 has been 
prepared on the same basis as the consolidated financial statements, except as set out below. 

Investments in subsidiaries and joint venture entities 

(i) 
Investments in subsidiaries and joint venture entities are accounted for at cost in the financial statements of the 
Parent Entity.

(b)  Credit risk 

Credit risk is managed on a Group basis.    Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents and deposits with 
banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to customers, including outstanding receivables 
and  committed  transactions.    For  banks  and  financial  institutions,  only  independently  rated  parties  with  a 
minimum rating of 'A' are accepted.    If wholesale customers are independently rated, these ratings are used.   
Otherwise, if there is no independent rating, risk control assesses the credit quality of the customer, taking into 
account its financial position, past experience and other factors.    Individual risk limits are set based on internal 
or external ratings in accordance with limits set by the board.     

The credit quality of financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired can be assessed by reference to 
external credit ratings (if available) or to historical information about counterparty default rates:

2  Financial risk management (continued) 

(c)  Liquidity risk 

Prudent  liquidity  risk  management  implies  maintaining  sufficient  cash  and  marketable  securities  and  the 
availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due 
and  close  out  market  positions.    At  the  end  of  each  reporting  period  the  Group  held  deposits  at  call  of 
$5,107,959 (2011: $7,485,009) that are expected to readily generate cash inflows for managing liquidity risk. 
The  Group  has  sufficient  funds  to  finance  its  operations  and  exploration  activities  and  to  allow  it  to  fund 
unforeseen expenditure. 

Maturities of financial liabilities 
The  tables  below  analyse  the  Group's  financial  liabilities  into  relevant  maturity  groupings  based  on  their 
contractual maturities. 
The  amounts  disclosed  in  the  table  are  the  contractual  undiscounted  cash  flows.    Balances  due  within  12 
months equal their carrying balances as the impact of discounting is not significant.

3  Critical accounting estimates and judgements 

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, 
including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the entity and that are believed to 
be reasonable under the circumstances. 

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on management's historical experience 
and knowledge of relevant facts and circumstances at that time. 

The  Group  makes estimates and  judgments concerning  the  future.  The  resulting accounting  estimates and 
judgments may differ from the related actual results and may have a significant effect on the carrying amounts 
of assets and liabilities within the next financial year and on the amounts recognised in the financial statements. 
Information  on  such  estimates  and  judgments  is  contained  in  the  accounting  policies  and/or  notes  to  the 
financial statements.

3  Critical accounting estimates and judgements (continued) 

(i) Exploration and evaluation expenditure 

Expenditure  incurred on exploration and evaluation activities have  been carried forward in accordance  with 
Note 1 (k) on the basis that exploration and evaluation activities have not yet reached a stage which permits a 
reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves and active and 
significant operations in relation  to the area are continuing.    Exploration expenditure incurred that does not 
satisfy the policy stated above is expensed in the period in which it is incurred.    Exploration expenditure that 
has been capitalised which no longer satisfies the policy stated above is written off in the period in which the 
decision is made. Details of capitalised exploration and evaluation costs are presented in Note 11. 

(ii) Estimation for the provision for rehabilitation and dismantling 

Provision for rehabilitation and dismantling property, plant and equipment is estimated taking into consideration 
facts and circumstances available at the end of the reporting period. This estimate is based on the expenditure 
required to undertake the rehabilitation and dismantling, taking into consideration time value. 

(iii) Impairment of property, plant and equipment, deferred exploration and development expenditure and mine 
properties 

The Group reviews for impairment of property, plant and equipment, deferred exploration and development 
expenditure and mine properties in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 1(i) to 1(k). With the 
exception of deferred exploration (refer Note 11), the recoverable amount of these assets has been determined 
based on higher of the assets' fair value less costs to sell and value in use. These calculations require the use 
of estimates and judgements. 

(iv) Income taxes 

Judgement  is  required  in  determining  the  provision  for  income  taxes.  The  Group  recognises  liabilities  of 
anticipated tax based on estimates of taxes due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from 
the  amounts  that  were  initially  recognised,  such  differences  will  impact  the  income  tax  and  deferred  tax 
provisions in the year in which such determination is made. 

Judgement is also required in determining not to recognise deferred tax assets for tax losses. Total unused tax 
losses are shown at note 7(c). 

(v) Valuation of assets and liabilities in business combinations 

Management has applied estimates and judgements in order to determine the value of assets, liabilities and 
contingent liabilities acquired by way of business combinations. The value of assets, liabilities and contingent 
liabilities recognised at acquisition date are disclosed at fair value on acquisition. In determining the fair value 
management  has  utilised  valuation  methodologies  including  discounted  cash  flow  analysis  and  adjusted 
market value analysis. The assumptions made in performing the valuation include assumptions as to discount 
rates, foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, and timing of development of mine properties, capital costs 
and future operating cost. Details of business combinations are shown in Note 23. 

(vi) Share-based payments 

Management has determined the Black Scholes Model is an appropriate technique to determine the fair value 
of share-based payments. The Black Scholes Model requires the use of input assumptions, including expected 
volatility, expected life, expected dividend rate and expected risk-free rate of return. The list of inputs used in 
the Black Scholes Model to calculate the fair values are provided in Note 29. 

4  Segment information 

The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by 
the Managing Director (chief operating decision maker) and the board of directors in assessing performance 
determining the allocation of resources.    The Group is managed primarily on a geographic basis, that is, the 
location of the respective areas of interest (tenements) in Australia.    Operating segments are determined on 
the basis of financial information reported to the board which is at the consolidated level. The Group does not 
have any products or services it derives revenue from. 

Accordingly,  management  currently  identifies  the  Group  as  having  only  one  reportable  segment,  being  the 
exploration  for  uranium  and  other  minerals  in  Australia.  There  have  been  no  changes  in  the  operating 
segments during the year. Accordingly, all significant operating decisions are based upon analysis of the Group 
as  one  segment.    The  financial  results  from  this  segment  are  equivalent  to  the  financial  statements  of  the 
Group as a whole.

The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern 
while maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of its capital structure comprising equity 
and cash. 

The Group reviews the capital structure on a semi-annual basis. As part of this review the Group considers the 
cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital. Due to the nature of the Group’s activities, 
being that of exploration, the Directors believe that the most advantageous way to fund activities is through 
equity. The Group’s exploration activities are monitored against budget and cash flow forecasts are prepared 
and maintained to ensure that adequate funds are available.

In order to maintain current rights to tenure to exploration tenements, the  Group is required to perform minimum 
exploration work to meet the minimum expenditure requirements specified by various State governments. These 
amounts  are  subject  to  renegotiation  when  application  for  a  mining  lease  is  made  and  at  other  times.    These 
amounts, which are not provided for in the financial report and are expected to be capitalised as incurred but not 
recognised as liabilities, are as follows:

shareholders to purchase 100% of the issued capital in Kurilpa Uranium Pty Ltd.

consideration of 20,000,000 ordinary shares at a price of $0.03 in the Company.    Acquisition costs of $86,455

During the year none of these options issued were exercised into ordinary shares. 

The  weighted  average  remaining contractual life of  the  above  share options  outstanding at  the end of  the 
period was 2.5 years (2011: 3.5 years). 

The  amount  of  the  equity  settled  share-based  payment  recognised  in  the  current  period  in  respect  of  the 
options granted above is $Nil (2011: $299,000) and has been included as contributed equity transaction costs 
within the statement of financial position. 

(d) Fair value of options granted 

The assessed fair value at grant date of options is allotted equally over the period from grant date to vesting date. 
Fair values at grant date are determined using a Black Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the 
exercise price, the term of the option, the vesting and performance criteria, the impact of dilution, the non-tradable 
nature of the option, the share price at grant date, expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected 
dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option (refer to table below for inputs used). 

The following table lists the inputs to the models used for the years ended 30 June 2012 and 2011:

29 Share based payments (continued) 

(d) Fair value of options granted (continued) 

# Historical volatility of a group of comparable companies has been used as the basis of determining expected 
share price volatility, as it is  assumed that this is indicative of future movements. No adjustment has been 
made to the life of the option based on no past history regarding any expected early exercise or any variation 
of the expiry date.    Accordingly the expected life of the options has been taken to the full period of time from 
grant date to expiry date, which may fail to eventuate in the future. 

(e)  General terms and conditions 

All of these options were issued by the Company and entitle the holder to one ordinary share in the Company 
for  each  option  that  may  be  exercised.  The  options  were  granted  for  no  consideration.  Once  vested  the 
options can be exercised at any time up to the expiry date. Options granted carry no dividend or voting rights. 

No options expired during the periods covered by the above tables.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements 

31 Application of new and revised Accounting Standards   

(a) New and amended standards and interpretations 

The  following  new  and  revised  Standards  and  Interpretations  have  been  adopted  in  the  current  year  and  have 
affected the amounts reported in these financial statements. Details of other Standards and Interpretations adopted 
in these financial statements but that have had no effect on the amounts reported are set out separately.   

Standards affecting presentation and disclosure 

Amendments to AASB 7 
‘Financial Instruments 
Disclosure’ 

AASB 1054 ‘Australian 
Additional Disclosures’ and 
AASB 2011-1 ‘Amendments to 
Australian Accounting 
Standards arising from 
Trans-Tasman Convergence 
Project’ 

The  amendments  (part  of  AASB  2010-4  ‘Further  Amendments  to 
Australian  Accounting  Standards  arising  from  the  Annual  Improvements 
Project’)  clarify  the  required  level  of  disclosures  about  credit  risk  and 
collateral  held  and  provide  relief  from  disclosures  previously  required 
regarding renegotiated loans.   

AASB  1054  sets  out  the  Australian-specific  disclosures  for  entities  that 
have  adopted  Australian  Accounting  Standards.  This  Standard  contains 
disclosure  requirements  that  are  in  addition  to  IFRSs  in  areas  such  as 
compliance with Australian Accounting Standards, the nature of financial 
statements  (general  purpose  or  special  purpose),  audit  fees,  imputation 
(franking) credits and the 
Reconciliation of net operating cash flow to profit (loss).   

AASB  2011-1  makes  amendments  to  a  range  of  Australian  Accounting 
Standards and Interpretations for the purpose of closer alignment to IFRSs 
and harmonisation between Australian and New Zealand Standards. The 
Standard  deletes  various  Australian-specific  guidance  and  disclosures 
from  other  Standards  (Australian-specific  disclosures  retained  are  now 
contained in AASB 1054), and aligns the wording used to that adopted in 
IFRSs. 

The application of AASB 1054 and AASB 2011-1 in the current year has 
resulted in the simplification of disclosures in regards to audit fees, franking 
credits and capital and other expenditure commitments as well as an 
additional disclosure on whether the Group is a for-profit or not-for-profit 
entity. 

Standards and Interpretations adopted with no effect on financial statements 
The following new and revised Standards and Interpretations have been adopted in these financial statements. Their 
adoption has not had any significant impact on the amounts reported in these financial statements but may affect the 
accounting for future transactions or arrangements.     

AASB 2009-12 ‘Amendments 
to Australian Accounting 
Standards’ 

Amendments to AASB 101 
‘Presentation of Financial 
Statements’ 

The  application  of  AASB  2009-12  makes  amendments  to  AASB  8 
‘Operating  Segments’  as  a  result of  the issuance of  AASB  124  ‘Related 
Party Disclosures’ (2009). The amendment to AASB 8 requires an entity to 
exercise  judgement  in  assessing  whether  a  government  and  entities 
known to be under the control of that government are considered a single 
customer for the purposes of certain operating segment disclosures. The 
Standard  also  makes  numerous  editorial  amendments  to  a  range  of 
Australian  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations.  The  application  of 
AASB 2009-12 has not had any material effect on amounts reported in the 
Group’s consolidated financial statements. 

The  amendments  (part  of  AASB  2010-4  ‘Further  Amendments  to 
Australian  Accounting  Standards  arising  from  the  Annual  Improvements 
Project’) clarify that an entity may choose to present the required analysis 
of items of other comprehensive income either in the statement of changes 
in equity or in the notes to the financial statements.   

AASB 2010-5 ‘Amendments to 
Australian Accounting 
Standards’ 

The  Standard  makes  numerous  editorial  amendments  to  a  range  of 
Australian  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations.  The  application  of 
AASB 2010-5 has not had any material effect on amounts reported in the 
Group’s consolidated financial statements.

31 Application of new and revised Accounting Standards (continued) 

(a) New and amended standards and interpretations (continued) 

Standards and Interpretations adopted with no effect on financial statements (continued) 
AASB 2010-6 ‘Amendments to 
Australian Accounting 
Standards – Disclosures on 
Transfers of Financial Assets’ 

The application of AASB 2010-6 makes amendments to AASB 7 ‘Financial 
Instruments – Disclosures’ to introduce additional disclosure requirements 
for transactions involving transfer of financial assets. These amendments 
are intended to provide greater transparency around risk exposures when 
a financial asset is transferred and derecognised but the transferor retains 
some level of continuing exposure in the asset. 

To  date,  the  Group  has  not  entered  into  any  transfer  arrangements  of 
financial  assets  that  are  derecognised  but  with  some  level  of  continuing 
exposure in the asset. Therefore, the application of the amendments has 
not  had any  material effect  on  the  disclosures  made  in  the  consolidated 
financial statements. 

AASB 124 (revised December 2009) has been revised on the following two 
aspects:  (a)  AASB  124  (revised  December  2009)  has  changed  the 
definition of a related party and (b) AASB 124  (revised December 2009) 
introduces  a  partial  exemption  from  the  disclosure  requirements  for 
government-related entities. 

AASB 124 ‘Related Party 
Disclosures’ (revised
