W. McConachy (fellow of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy) who is a director of Renascor. Mr McConachy has sufficient experience relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposits being considered to qualify as a competent person as defined by the 2012 edition of the Australasian code for reporting of exploration results, mineral resources and ore reserves (the JORC code, 2012 edition). Mr McConachy consents to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears. i s t n e m e v e h c a & s t h g i l h g H i Renascor Resources Limited annual report 2016 Renascor’s past financial year was highlighted by its activities at its Arno Graphite Project in South Australia’s Eyre Peninsula, where Renascor quickly established the Siviour Graphite Deposit as a potential near-term supplier of high-quality, coarse-flake graphite. Key achievements during the year included: Acquisition Renascor secured the rights to the project area in December 2015 through an agreement to acquire 100% of the issued capital of Eyre Peninsula Minerals Pty Ltd (EPM). EPM is an unlisted company that has an option to acquire four exploration licences that comprise the Arno Graphite Project. The project tenements included several graphite prospects, including the area where Renascor defined the Siviour Graphite Deposit. Siviour discovery Renascor’s maiden drilling program in the Arno project area in January 2016 resulted in the discovery of extensive zones of thick, near surface high-grade graphite at Siviour. The near flat-lying orientation, substantial true thickness and shallow depth of graphite mineralisation suggest the Siviour mineralised body is unique within the region and favoured in terms of both its potential size and strip-ratio. Initial Mineral Resource estimate Renascor’s maiden JORC-compliant Mineral Resource estimate for Siviour, released in March 2016, marked Siviour as the largest reported graphite deposit in Australia. With the graphite- mineralised body largely open at shallow depths along strike, Siviour contains a JORC compliant Mineral Resource estimate of 16.8Mt @ 7.4% TGC for 1,243,200t of contained graphite (reported above a cut-off grade of 3% TGC), including high-grade mineralisation of 5.9Mt @ 10.0% TGC for 590,000t of contained graphite (reported above a cut-off grade of 8% TGC). 3 Siviour Mineral Resource estimate as of 16 March 2016 Category Indicated Inferred Total Tonnes of mineralisation (millions) 6.8 10.0 16.8 TGC 8.1% 6.9% Contained graphite (tonnes) 550,800 690,000 7.4% 1,243,2000 Note: Cut-off grade of 3% total graphitic carbon. High-quality coarse flake graphite Renascor has identified an abundance of coarse flake graphite at Sivour, with high-grade samples from drill holes at Siviour returning over 80% in the high-value super-jumbo (+500μm), jumbo (+300μm) and large (+180μm) categories. With mineral process test work currently in progress at Sivour, previous preliminary bench flotation and gravity tests over a core sample from an adjacent prospect suggest ample scope to produce a premium graphite product at Siviour. As Renascor commences the new financial year, the results from 2016 provide a firm basis to further advance the Siviour Deposit, with work currently underway to increase the confidence in, and size of, the Siviour Mineral Resource estimate and to establish flow sheet parameters through comprehensive mineral processing test work. Renascor expects these work programs to assist in the preparation of a scoping study to be completed later this year. i s t n e m e v e h c a & s t h g i l h g H i 4 r e t t e l ’ s n a m r i a h C Dear Shareholder, It is with great pleasure that I present Renascor’s Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2016. Renascor made a number of significant breakthroughs during the year, commencing with our acquisition of the rights to the Arno Graphite Project in South Australia’s Eyre Peninsula. From our evaluation of early stage exploration work at Arno, we recognised an opportunity to define a valuable graphite resource with minimal expenditure. Our initial drilling at Arno offered immediate returns, as we discovered extensive zones of thick, near-surface graphite at the Siviour deposit. In March, our maiden mineral resource estimate for Siviour marked Siviour as Australia’s largest reported graphite JORC Mineral Resource. Subsequent work programs have further confirmed the potential value of Siviour. Further drilling has shown that the graphite mineralisation defined within the existing mineral resource extends at shallow depth. Preliminary petrographic and metallurgic studies suggest Siviour contains an abundance of high-quality, coarse-flake graphite. Although, Siviour is a recent discovery, our work undertaken during the year suggests Siviour is unique within the region and favoured in terms of both its potential size and strip-ratio. We recently appointed a new board member, Dick Keevers, who has advanced multiple producing mines from discovery phase through development. This expertise, which complements our management team’s developmental experience, including in South Australia, further strengthens the Renascor team. As we continue our development of Siviour in the current year, there is strong reason to believe the work undertaken to date, together with continued developmental activities, may further establish Siviour as a significant graphite project and provide a catalyst for the re-rating of the company by the equity markets. On behalf on my Board and fellow shareholders, I thank our Managing Director, David Christensen and the entire Renascor team for their dedicated work during an exciting year. I also extend my sincere thanks to you, our shareholders, for your continued support. Yours faithfully, Stephen Bizzell Chairman 5 Renascor Resources Limited annual report 2016 j s t c e o r p f o w e i v e R Port Augusta South Australia Kimba Whyalla Port Lincoln Adelaide Waddikee Campoona Oakdale Cleve Cowell Arno Graphite Project Kookaburra Gully Uley Port Lincoln Arno Project Tenements Other Renascor Tenements Graphite mine Graphite deposits Major roads Railway 0 50 100 km Adelaide Arno Graphite Project The Arno Graphite Project consists of four granted exploration licences, ELs 5618, 5204, 5496 and 5714, covering 1,372km2 in the Eyre Peninsula, an established graphite region in South Australia. The project is located within 150km of Port Lincoln and Whyalla and approximately 500km driving distance from Adelaide. The Uley graphite mine, owned by Valence Industries Limited (ASX: VXL), is located approximately 140km to the south, and the immediate area hosts several additional graphite deposits including Kookaburra Gully, being developed by Lincoln Minerals Limited (ASX: LML), the Waddikee and Campoona, being developed by Archer Exploration Limited (ASX: AXE), and the Oakdale graphite deposit, being developed by Oakdale Resources Limited (ASX: OAR). The area also benefits from significant infrastructure advantages, including established workforces in the nearby port cities of Whyalla (population 23,000), Port Lincoln (population 15,000) and Port Augusta (13,000), as well as the established population centres of Arno Bay, Cleve, Cowell and Tumby Bay. Renascor’s licences are located within 10km of a major highway and within 20km of an operating railway servicing Port Lincoln. The project area is connected to South Australia’s main power grid and is serviced by ports at Port Lincoln and Whyalla. 6 EYRE PENINSULA j s t c e o r p f o w e i v e R Mineral Resource at Siviour Renasor commenced its maiden drill program in the Arno project area in January 2016. The 24-hole, 1550m reverse circulation drilling program focused on the Siviour prospect and resulted in an Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources estimate for Siviour as shown below in table 1. A nominal cut-off grade of 3% TGC has been established for Siviour based on the potential mining methods and costs of open-cut mining operations that could be undertaken for mineralisation of this type.

As shown in Figure 3, Section 631800E, the westernmost section drilled of the Indicated Resource, shows a thick, shallow graphite-mineralised zone that is near flat lying over the southern and central portions of the prospect before dipping gently to the north. Siviour in comparison to other graphite resources in Australia As shown below in Figure 4, the Siviour deposit is the largest reported JORC resource in Australia, with ample scope for expansion.

As shown in Figure 5, a ground electromagnetic (EM) survey identified potential extensions to Siviour in areas along- strike to the east, west and north of the Indicated Resource. 631000m E 632000m E 633000m E 634000m E SIV053 SIV052 SIV042 SIV049 SIV058 SIV041 SIV048 SIV057 SIV036 SIV050 SIV056 SIV040 SIV051 SIV055 SIV043 SIV039 SIV047 SIV054 SIV037 SIV038 SIV044 SIV046 SIV045 Indicated Resource SIV060 SIV05 SIV059 SIV061 SIV062 SIV066 Exploration target SIV065 SIV064 SIV063 Conductivity (Siemens) 2.00 0.20 0.06 0.0 Contour Interval 1.0 S 6 2 4 7 0 0 0 m N 6 2 4 5 0 0 0 m N Figure 5. Location of recent drill collars over ground electromagnetic image at Siviour. 0 500 metres 1000 Signifi cant graphite intersection In July 2016, Renascor completed a 2,100m reverse circulation drill program targeting these EM anomalies and intersected thick intervals of shallow, high grade graphite in areas along-strike to the east and west of the Siviour Graphite Deposit. To the west, Renascor’s drilling confirm that the mineralised graphite body located within the Siviour Indicated Resource is continuous at least an additional 1km to the west and remains open to the north and west of the current drilling limits. Results from the July 2016 program included multiple intersections of thick, shallow high-grade graphite, including: • Siv054: 25m @ 9.0% TGC (from 13 to 38m) • Siv055: 28m @ 7.1% TGC (from 28 to 56m) • Siv056: 23m @ 8.7% TGC (from 49 to 72m). 9 Renascor Resources Limited annual report 2016 j s t c e o r p f o w e i v e R The drill results suggest a north dipping tabular graphitic horizon in this western area. As shown in the south-north cross-section in Figure 6, the mineralised horizon typically has a broad higher-grade, +5% TGC cut-off and a narrow +3% TGC grade halo particularly in the hanging wall of the deposit. This generally flat-lying orientation is consistent throughout both the areas drilled to the west of the Indicated Resource and within the Indicated Resource area. Shown in cross-section below Figure 6. Siviour -- Plan view showing recent drill holes over EM conductive zones and cross-sections with TGC Drilling to the immediate east of the existing Indicated Resource at Siviour (in areas outside of JORC Mineral Resource estimate), included some of the thickest intervals of graphite drilled to date, with results including: assay results (5%TGC cut-off • Siv061: 35m @ 8.2% TGC (from 44m to 79m), with a 74m in dark red and 3% TGC cut- graphite zone from 5m to 79m off in light red) over Section • Siv062: 35m @ 8.7% TGC (from 17m to 52m), with a 56m 631600E). graphite zone from 5m to 61m • Siv063: 23m @ 9.2% TGC (from 16m to 39m) This thick, eastern graphite zone remains open and offers potential for significant extensions to the Siviour Deposit. Renascor expects the recent drill results will form the basis of an updated Mineral Resource estimate for Siviour to be released later this year. 10 j s t c e o r p f o w e i v e R Graphite flake size and mineral processing test work In addition to establishing Siviour as a premium graphite resource in terms of its size and grade, initial testing undertaken during the year identified an abundance of coarse flake graphite from petrographic analysis of high-grade drill samples, with over 80% in the high-value super-jumbo (+500μm), jumbo (+300μm) and large (+180μm) categories. Nine high-grade samples from four recent reverse circulation holes at Siviour were examined by Pontifex and Associates. Photomicrographs prepared from these samples (see Figures 7 - 10) have returned flake graphite with lengths of up to 1,600μm and over 60% of graphite flakes recording lengths of over 500μm. Complete results are described below in table 3.

Summary of graphite flake analysis from drill chips at Siviour prospect 65% 60% 70% 65% 60% 50% 80% 65% 40% The abundance of coarse flake graphite identified in petrographic analysis of Siviour drill samples suggests that the graphite- mineralised zones at Siviour have the potential to produce significant quantities of premium-priced coarseflake graphite in concentrate. While it is expected that the proportion of coarse flake graphite will be diminished in mineral processing, Renascor is encouraged by the high proportion of coarse-flake graphite in the high-grade drill samples at Siviour. 11 Renascor Resources Limited annual report 2016 j s t c e o r p f o w e i v e R While mineral processing test work has not yet been undertaken on the high-grade graphite zones at Siviour, preliminary flotation tests from the adjacent Paxtons prospect have produced favourable graphite recoveries and purity of concentrates, including producing flake graphite in the super-jumbo (+500μm) category. Flotation and gravity tests were performed in 2014 on samples from an historical core hole (CRA090) drilled on the eastern margin of Paxtons, located approximately 2km to the southeast of the Siviour Inferred Resource. The hole, which was drilled to test for uranium and not originally assayed for graphite, intersected 24m of graphitic mineralisation, which subsequent assaying has shown included 12.4m @ 8.34% TGC from 67.7m. ALS Metallurgy performed bench flotation and gravity tests over a 2.5kg core sample from CRA090, obtaining carbon (graphite) recovery of 87% and producing 93% purity of concentrates with flake size of up to 600μm. 500μm 500μm Figure 7.

EPM is an unlisted company that has an option to acquire the four exploration licences that comprise the Arno Graphite Project. By virtue of having met exploration commitments and having issued shares to EPM shareholders, Renascor currently holds a 49% interest in EPM. Renascor acquired 20% of EPM in exchange for having completed $400,000 in exploration expenditure by 21 June 2016. Renascor acquired an additional 29% interest in EPM from EPM shareholders in exchange for 38,666,667 ordinary shares in Renascor, which Renascor issued on 11 July 2016. In August 2016, Renascor exercised an option to acquire (subject to shareholder approval) the remaining shares in Renascor and thereby increase its ownership interest in EPM to 100%. Subject to obtaining shareholder approval at Renascor’s upcoming annual shareholder meeting, Renascor will acquire the remaining shares in EPM in exchange for 42,068,884 ordinary shares in Renascor and 15,000,000 unlisted options at $0.05 per option and expiring three years from the date of issue. EPM option to acquire Ausmin EPM’s primary asset is an option to acquire Ausmin Development Pty Ltd (Ausmin), which owns the underlying rights to the exploration tenements that comprise the Arno Graphite Project. The option can be exercised at any time prior to 30 September 2018, and can be extended to December 2019 and to December 2020 by payment of $150,000 and $250,000, respectively. To exercise the option, EPM must complete a bankable feasibility study in relation to the commercial development of graphite on the project tenements and issue to the owners of Ausmin a 22% equity interest in a listed vehicle holding the project. After exercise of the option, the Ausmin shareholders are entitled to an overriding 1% gross royalty on minerals produced from the project tenements. 13 Renascor Resources Limited annual report 2016 j s t c e o r p f o w e i v e R A U S T R A L I A W E S T E R N A U S T R A L I A Perth Munglinup Location: Tenements: Area: Target: Albany Fraser Range (Western Australia) E74/517, E74/518, E74/523, E74/531, E74/538, E74/544, E74/545 579 km2 Graphite, lithium and nickel sulphide Munglinup The Munglinup project is located within the Albany-Fraser Range province of Western Australia between the regional towns of Esperance and Ravensthorpe. See Figure 11. Renascor considers the project area to offer high prospectivity for graphite, lithium and nickel sulphide and it has identified multiple drill-ready targets. Figure 11.

Halbert’s is among Australia’s highest-grade graphite deposits, with a reported JORC-compliant measured and indicated resource of 1.47Mt at a fixed carbon content of 18.2%2. Sixty-seven percent (67%) of the recoverable graphite from Halbert’s is reportedly coarse flake (+150μm, with 35% of recoverable graphite classified as jumbo flake (+300μm)3. The regional structure that hosts the Halbert’s deposit, the Halbert’s Shear Zone, extends through Renascor’s new project area over approximately 25km strike extent. See Figure 12. Limited previous drilling within this structure, on E74/518 in Munglinup Central (to the immediate south of the Halbert’s graphite deposit) intersected high-grade graphite, including narrow graphite zones containing up to 34.9% TGC4 . To the immediate north of the Halbert’s deposit, the Halbert’s Shear Zone extends for approximately 20km to the north on E74/517 and E74/531. A recently completed electromagnetic (VTEM) survey over this northern extension has identified several prospective conductive targets that Renascor considers high priority targets for Halbert’s-style graphite deposits. 0 5 km Munglinup Ultramatic Halbert’s Shear Zone (interpreted) Young River Ultramatics Figure 12.

Halbert’s Graphite Munglinup Central Drill collars 2 As reported in Geological Survey of Western Australia (GSWA) Mineral Resources Bulletin 26, in 2015, graphite mineralisation in the Halbert’s Main Zone has a ‘resource estimate’ subsequently upgraded to a JORC compliant measured and indicated resource by Clifford (2009) to 1.47Mt at a fixed carbon content of 18.2% TC (total carbon) over a strike length of 555m to an average depth of 55m. This resource calculation for Halbert’s Main Zone was based on an in situ ore density of 1.91 t/m3 with a fixed carbon cutoff of 5% TC, and a minimum true thickness of 1.0m for tabular graphite bodies.’ 3 Mineralisation Report in Support of Application for Mining Lease for M74/24, October 2009. 15 Renascor Resources Limited annual report 2016 j s t c e o r p f o w e i v e R Lithium prospects The Munglinup project area is located approximately 70km from the Mt Cattlin spodumene and tantalum mining operation and is considered prospective for lithium-cesium- tantalum (LCT) pegmatites of the type associated with the Mt Cattlin mine. The area is mapped as the Munglinup gneiss, with remnants of the Lake Johnston Archean greenstone interpreted through the area. Although LCT pegmatites are uncommon, they are typically hosted within Archean greenstones. Accordingly, Renascor considers portions of its Munglinup project area with mapped and interpreted Archean greenstone as potential targets for LCT pegmatite development. Figure 13. Regional EM image for Munglinup Project with interpreted greenstone trends (Western Mining Services 20135). Renascor has identified a zone of anomalous lithium geochemistry from a roadside auger soil-sampling program undertaken by AngloGold Ashanti (ASX: AGG) in connection with a gold exploration program in 20106. The AngloGold program included 115 samples within Renascor’s E74/538, an area that has been previously mapped to include Archean greenstones. The AngloGold samples underwent multi-element testing and included assaying for lithium. The lithium results include a set of elevated assays over the Young River lithium prospect, an approximately 4km trend, with peak value for lithium of 74.9 ppm, defined on a north-south oriented traverse near the eastern limit of the tenement. See Figure 14. 4 GSWA Bulletin 26. See also Lithex Resources Limited ASX release dated 5 July 2013. 5 Western Mining Services, J. Hronsky, 2013.

A large area of subdued magnetic relief to the southwest of the lithium anomalous zone is also interpreted as a possible granitic intrusion that may represent a source for late stage pegmatitic intrusion along the strong north-easterly trending structural fabric. See Figure 15. Renascor considers these magnetic areas to offer additional potential for locating lithium mineralisation associated with pegmatites. j s t c e o r p f o w e i v e R Figure 14. Young River lithium prospect – soil geochemical results. Figure 15. Young River prospect, showing elevated lithium geochemical samples on regional aeromagnetic image. 17 Renascor Resources Limited annual report 2016 j s t c e o r p f o w e i v e R Nickel prospects Renascor also considers the project area to offer high-priority nickel sulphide prospects. The project tenements are situated in an untested area that is considered to be the southern extension of the Lake Johnston Greenstone belt, the structural setting for Poseidon Nickel Limited’s Maggie Hays and Emily Ann nickel sulphide deposits, located approximately 50km to the north of E74/544. See Figure 11. In 2013, Lithex Resources Limited (ASX: LTX) commissioned a review of the project’s nickel sulphide potential by Western Mining Services Pty Ltd. See Lithex Resources ASX release dated 9 September 2013. The Western Mining Services review concluded that, on a regional scale, the Munglinup project tenements host significant strike length of nickel sulphide prospective ultramafic rocks within an underexplored strike extension of the Lake Johnston Greenstone belt, a known nickel sulphide mineralised province. Limited nickel exploration drilling undertaken by Lithex within E74/518 supports the nickel sulphide prospectivity, with four (of four) holes drilled in a reconnaissance, graphite-targeted drill program in 2013 intersecting widespread hydrothermal veining and alteration, with associated low level copper, potassium and lead anomalism. According to Western Mining Services, the anomalous mineralisation from the Lithex drilling is consistent with the distal expression of a nickel sulphide deposit. Accordingly, Renascor considers that conductive zones within the identified Greenstone belt offer high potential for nickel sulphides, in addition to graphite.

See Figure 16. The Olympic Dam corridor is generally considered to be among the world’s most prospective target areas for copper deposits, hosting the massive Olympic Dam deposit, as well as other large-scale copper deposits, including Prominent Hill and Carrapateena to the north of the project area and the Hillside deposit and extensive historical copper mining district of Moonta to the south. While large target zones of the Olympic Dam corridor are often located far from infrastructure and in areas with deep cover sequences, Renascor’s project area is readily accessible, with basement targets from surface to approximately 200m depth, amongst the shallowest targets in the Olympic Dam corridor. Figure 16. Olympic Dam copper belt, showing location of Eastern Eyre project. 19 Renascor Resources Limited annual report 2016 j s t c e o r p f o w e i v e R The project area includes large portions of the Roopena-Angle Dam fault corridor, a largely untested zone that extends over approximately 40 kilometres. See Figure 17. Renascor considers this structure to be a major conduit for mineralisation sourced from the adjacent Hiltaba-age granites immediately east of the fault. These granites are associated with mineralisation at the major deposits (e.g., Olympic Dam and Prominent Hill) within the Olympic Dam copper belt. Within the Angle Dam fault trend, at the 1050 East prospect, Renascor has intersected high-grade copper-cobalt-silver mineralisation, with results including 13m @ 1.45% Cu, 66 ppm Ag and 0.17% Co (from 215m), including a massive sulphide interval of 8m @ 2.2% Cu, 92 ppm Ag and 0.26% Co. Renascor considers unexplained gravity, magnetic and geochemical anomalies within the Angle Dam fault structure, as well as the parallel Roopena fault structure, as particularly prospective targets for economic copper ore bodies. Renascor’s initial exploration work at Eastern Eyre, including the discovery of high grade, massive sulphide at 1050 East and the discovery of widespread copper mineralisation at Extension Tank, has highlighted the importance of the major fault structures in the project area. In particular, recent results suggest that the Angle Dam fault offers significant untested targets for economic concentrations of copper. Within this structure, in addition to 1050 East and the area immediately east of Extension Tank, Renascor has identified additional untested gravity, magnetic and geochemical drill targets.

The project has been subject to infrequent exploration since this time. Renascor acquired the project in 2013 in exchange for a residual net smelter royalty of 1%. Renascor’s strategy at Warrior is to utilise the significant exploration work undertaken by PNC to create low cost opportunities to identify a valuable resource under present market conditions. Through the use of additional core drilling and a prompt fission neutron tool, in both the elevated uranium zones discovered by PNC as well as extensions to the paleochannels suggested by later exploration work, Renascor considers Warrior to offer significant prospects for the delineation of an economic uranium ore body. Renascor anticipates commencing drill-testing following indications of a recovery in the uranium price. 21 Renascor Resources Limited annual report 2016 j s t c e o r p f o w e i v e R A U S T R A L I A A U S T R A L I A S O U T H A U S T R A L I A Perth Carnding Warrior Gairdner Farina Olary Adelaide Location: Tenements: Area: Target: Gawler Craton (South Australia) EL 4707 (100%, subject to 1% net smelter royalty) 162 km2 Gold Carnding Farina The Carnding project area consists of two tenement blocks located approximately 75km from the high-grade Challenger gold mine in the north of South Australia. See Figure 19. The project area contains several areas prospective for Challenger- style gold deposits. The project area covers Archaean, Mulgathing Complex, rocks that also host the nearby Challenger gold mine. The geology in this area is considered to be prospective for Archaean gold deposits, similar to Challenger, possible Proterozoic IOCGs and sandstone-hosted uranium in the younger Mesozoic and Cainozoic sediments. The project area contains numerous gold prospects that Renascor identified from historical surface sampling and limited shallow drilling. Among these prospects is the Sunshine prospect, a gold-in- calcrete anomaly where previous drilling interested 2m @ 6.66 g/T Au (from 60m). The prospect is open to the north and Renascor considers it prospective for high- grade Challenger-style gold deposits. Figure 19.

Renascor’s exploration program here is focused on identifying and drilling prospects for potentially large tonnage Zambian Copper Beltstyle, sedimentary copper deposits and near-surface oxide copper deposits. Renascor’s review of historical exploration in the project area has resulted in the identification of a new copper prospect, Callanna, located within an area of historical drilling on the northwest margin of exposed Adelaidean rocks. In addition, Renascor identified two prospective sedimentary copper target zones where sediments are inferred to exist beneath shallow cover and hence, amenable to EM surveying. Ground sampling has focused on historical copper occurrences at the Callanna prospect. Results included strongly anomalous gold values (maximum 2.6 g/t Au) associated with oxide copper mineralisation. A single hand-picked sample from a small working approximately 3 kilometres north of the main Callanna prospect area returned 27% Cu and 0.4 g/t Au with strongly anomalous rare earths and molybdenum, suggesting a possible granitic intrusive association. 23 Figure 20.

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 which can be located on the Company’s website Remuneration report – audited (www.renascor.com.au/company) This remuneration report sets out remuneration information for the Group’s non-executive directors, executive directors and other key management personnel of the Group and the Company. a) Key management personnel The following persons were key management personnel of the Company during the financial year: Directors Position Non-Executive Chairman Stephen Bizzell Managing Director David Christensen Geoffrey McConachy Executive Director Andrew Martin Chris Anderson Richard Keevers Non-Executive Director Non-Executive Director Non-Executive Director Other key management personnel: Angelo Gaudio CFO and Company Secretary 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 copper, gold, uranium and other minerals within South Australia. As the Group is still in the exploration and evaluation stage, the link between remuneration, Group performance and shareholder wealth is sometimes tenuous. Share prices are subject to the influence of metals prices, market sentiment toward the sector and the global economy, and as such increases or decreases may occur quite independent of executive performance or remuneration. 30 t r o p e r ’ s r o t c e r i D The following table shows key performance indicators for the Group over the last five years since the Company has been listed on the ASX: Key performance indicators 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 Profit/(Loss) for the year attributable to owners ($) ($890,079) ($4,932,426) ($1,513,910) ($528,989) (297,219) Basic earnings per share (cents) Share price (cents) at year end (0.4) 2.0 (3.5) 2.0 (1.3) 3.7 (0.5) 3.5 (0.3) 5.2 Increase/(decrease) in share price (%) (0%) (45.9%) 5.7% (32.7%) (30.7%) Total KMP incentives as a percentage of profit/(loss) for the year (%) - (0.2%) (2.4%) (4.6%) - 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. At the AGM held on 27 November 2014, shareholders approved the Non-Executive Directors Share Plan (NEDSP) for non-executive directors to receive up to 50% of their compensation in shares in the Company. Since the 1 October 2014 non-executive directors have received payment for 50% of their director fees through the issue of NEDSP shares issued bi-annually each 6 month period 1 October to 31 March and 1 April to 30 September. The following director fees have applied during the period: Base fees From 1 July 2016 From 1 July 2015 Chair $60,000 p.a. $60,000 p.a. Other non-executive directors $33,000-40,000 p.a. $33,000-40,000 p.a. 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. 31 Renascor Resources Limited annual report 2016 t r o p e r ’ s r o t c e r i D The Group has structured an executive remuneration framework that is market competitive and complementary to the reward strategy of the organisation. Alignment to shareholders’ interests: • has economic profit as a core component of plan design; • focuses on sustained growth in shareholder wealth, consisting of dividends and growth in share price; • delivering constant return on assets as well as focusing the executive on key non-financial drivers of value; and • attracts and retains high calibre executives. Alignment to program participants’ interests: • • rewards capability and experience; reflects competitive reward for contribution to growth in shareholder wealth; • provides a clear structure for earning rewards; and • provides recognition for contribution. 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; • short-term incentive through a cash bonus may be determined by the board; and • long-term incentives through the issue of unlisted share options and performance rights. 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 executive’s discretion and subject to board approval. 32 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 is no guaranteed base pay increase included in any of the executives’ contracts. 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. Short-term incentives The Company currently has no formal performance related remuneration policy which governs the payment of annual cash bonuses upon meeting pre-determined performance targets. Long-term incentives Long-term incentives may be provided to directors, executives and consultants through the granting of unlisted share options and or performance rights. The granting of unlisted share options and performance rights is designed to provide long- term incentives for executives to deliver long-term shareholder returns. The granting of such options and performance rights 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. The performance rights plan was approved by shareholders at the 2012 annual general meeting and is designed to focus executives on delivering long-term shareholder return. Under the plan, participants were granted rights to shares which only vest if certain performance conditions are met and the participants are still employed by the company at the end of the vesting period. Participation in the plan is at the absolute discretion of the disinterested board members. Vesting of the performance rights have been subject to a corporate share performance (CSP) condition and a personal key performance indicator (KPI) condition. The performance rights were issued for nil consideration and had variable vesting dates, subject to either CSP condition or KPI condition (and the maximum number of shares which may be issued where the relevant conditions are fully satisfied which are converted on a one for one basis). t r o p e r ’ s r o t c e r i D Total $ c) Details of remuneration Amounts of remuneration Details of the remuneration of the directors and the key management personnel of the Group (as defined in AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures) are set out in the following tables.

These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. The financial statements are for the Group consisting of Renascor Resources Limited (‘’Company’’ or ‘’Parent Entity’’) and its subsidiaries. Renascor Resources 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 on a historical cost basis, 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 $5,977,606 (30 June 2015: $3,534,046). The Group has incurred a loss after tax for the year of $890,079 (2015: $4,932,426) and operations were funded by a net cash outflow of $212,848 (2015: $349,642). At 30 June 2016, the Group had net current assets of $555,325 (30 June 2015: $926,178). The consolidated entity’s ability to continue as a going concern is contingent on raising additional capital and/or the successful exploration and subsequent exploitation of its areas of interest through sale or development. On 11 July 2016, the Company completed the fundraising initiated in May 2016 and raised a further $589,000 before costs. On 5 September the Company announced that it had executed an underwriting agreement that provides the confidence that it will receive total gross proceeds of $1.9m from its listed 3 cent options expiring on 30 September 2016. The funds raised will primarily be used to fund the advancement of its Arno graphite project and, in the opinion of the directors, removes any significant uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least the next 12 months from the date of authorising the financial report for issue and into the foreseeable future. b) Principles of consolidation i) Subsidiaries The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Renascor Resources Limited (‘company’) as at 30 June 2016 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Renascor Resources Limited 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 consolidated entity has control. The consolidated entity controls an entity when the consolidated entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the consolidated entity. They are de consolidated from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the consolidated entity 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 consolidated entity. 47 Renascor Resources Limited ABN 90 135 531 341 annual report 2016 s e t o N Notes to the consolidated financial statements 1 Summary of significant accounting policies d) Revenue recognition continued b) Principles of consolidation continued ii) Joint arrangements Joint arrangements are arrangements in which one or more parties have joint control (the contractual sharing of control of an arrangement where decisions about relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control). iii) Joint operations The consolidated entity has entered into joint arrangements which are classified as joint operations because the parties to the joint arrangements have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities, rather than to the net assets, of the joint arrangements. The consolidated entity has recognised its direct right to, as well as its share of jointly held, assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of joint operations which have been included in the financial statements under the appropriate headings. Details of joint operations are set out in note 25. 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. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised: Interest Revenue Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis using the effective interest method. Government grants Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Group will comply with all the attached conditions. Government grants relating to costs are deferred and recognised in profit or loss over the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate. Government grants relating to exploration and evaluation expenditure are offset against exploration and evaluation assets. c) Foreign currency translation i) Functional and presentation currency 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. 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. ii) Transactions and balances f) Trade receivables 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 profit or loss, within finance costs. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in profit or loss on a net basis within other income or other expenses. 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. 48 Renascor Resources Limited ABN 90 135 531 341 annual report 2016 Notes to the consolidated financial statements s e t o N 1 Summary of significant accounting policies h) Business combinations continued g) Income tax continued Deferred tax is provided in full 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 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 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 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. 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. 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 and 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 are 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. 49 Renascor Resources Limited ABN 90 135 531 341 annual report 2016 s e t o N Notes to the consolidated financial statements 1 Summary of significant accounting policies continued h) Business combinations continued 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. 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 50 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 any capitalised exploration expenditure no longer satisfies that policy. 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. Renascor Resources Limited ABN 90 135 531 341 annual report 2016 Notes to the consolidated financial statements 1 Summary of significant accounting policies continued 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. n) Employee benefits i) Short term employee obligations Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non monetary benefits expected to be settled wholly 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. ii) Other long term employee obligations The liability for annual leave and long service leave not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date, are recognised as part of the provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future salaries and wages levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using corporate bond rates at the end of the reporting period with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. s e t o N Regardless of when settlement is expected to occur, liabilities for long service leave and annual leave are presented as current liabilities in the statement of financial position if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period. iii) 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. iv) Share based payments Share based compensation benefits are provided to directors, executives and consultants through the granting of unlisted share options and performance rights. Detailed information is set out in note 30. Options and performance rights are granted for no cash consideration. When these share options and performance rights are granted, the fair value of the options and performance rights issued are recognised as an employee benefits expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of share options and performance rights for which the related service and non-market performance conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised as an expense is based on the number of share options and performance rights that meet the related service and non- market performance conditions at the vesting date. The fair value of share options and performance rights are measured using an appropriate pricing model. Measurement inputs include the share price on measurement date, exercise price of the instrument, expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option and performance rights. Service and non-market performance conditions attached to the transactions are not taken into account in determining fair value. Upon the exercise of options and performance rights, the balance of the share based payments reserve relating to those options and performance rights is transferred to share capital. 51 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, Renascor Resources Limited, disclosed in note 31 has been prepared on the same basis as the consolidated financial statements, except as set out below. i) Investments in subsidiaries Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost, less any impairment, in the financial statements of the Parent Entity. t) R&D Tax Incentives R&D tax incentives are considered more akin to government grants because they are not conditional upon earning taxable income and the group accounts for any R&D Tax incentives received as government grants under AASB 120 Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance. Renascor Resources Limited ABN 90 135 531 341 annual report 2016 s e t o N Notes to the consolidated financial statements 1 Summary of significant accounting policies continued 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 29). 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. 52 Renascor Resources Limited ABN 90 135 531 341 annual report 2016 Notes to the consolidated financial statements s e t o N 2 Financial risk management The Group considers its capital to comprise its ordinary share capital and accumulated losses. The Group does not have a formally established treasury function. The board is responsible for managing the Group’s finance facilities. The Group does not currently undertake hedging of any kind and is not directly exposed to currency risk. The Group holds the following financial instruments: Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Financial liabilities at amortised cost Trade and other payable Consolidated 30 June 2016 $ 30 June 2015 $ 862,488 154,720 1,075,336 224,803 1,017,208 1,300,139 345,763 345,763 242,337 242,337 a) Market risk i) Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk As at 30 June 2016 and 30 June 2015, the Group had no borrowings.

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: Trade and other receivables Counterparties without external credit rating Total trade and other receivables Cash and cash equivalents Minimum rating of A Total cash and cash equivalents c) Liquidity risk Consolidated 30 June 2016 $ 30 June 2015 $ 154,720 154,720 862,488 862,488 224,803 224,803 1,075,336 1,075,336 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 $862,488 (2015: $1,075,336) 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 for reasonable contingencies. 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.

Estimates and judgments 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. 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) Impairment of property, plant and equipment, deferred exploration and development expenditure and mine properties The Group reviews for impairment of property, plant and equipment, 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 judgments. iii) Income taxes Judgement is required in determining not to recognise deferred tax assets for tax losses. Total unused tax losses are shown at note 7(c). iv) Share-based payments Management has determined that the Black Scholes and Monte Carlo simulation models are appropriate techniques to determine the fair value of share-based payments. These models require 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 to calculate the fair values of share-based payments are provided in Note 30. 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 copper, gold, 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. 56 Renascor Resources Limited ABN 90 135 531 341 annual report 2016 Notes to the consolidated financial statements s e t o N 5 Revenue and Other Income a) Revenue Interest income b) Other Income Sundry Income Profit on sale of tenement 6 Expenses Profit/(Loss) before income tax includes the following specific expenses: Depreciation Office furniture and equipment Computer equipment Total depreciation Exploration costs Exploration expenditure incurred Exploration expenditure written off Finance costs - net Interest and finance charges paid/payable for financial liabilities not at fair value through profit or loss Fair value gains on interest swaps cash flow hedges - transfer from equity Finance costs expensed Employee benefits expense Employee share based payments expense Defined contribution superannuation expense Consolidated 30 June 2016 $ 30 June 2015 $ 27,996 26,317 12,000 - - 41,556 12,000 41,556 Consolidated 30 June 2016 $ 30 June 2015 $ 771 3,387 4,158 768 6,528 7,296 - 265,602 - 4,266,131 265,602 4,266,131 - - - 373,431 - 53,724 427,155 - - - 427,555 7,876 64,700 500,131 Minimum office lease payments 30,596 30,225 57 Renascor Resources Limited ABN 90 135 531 341 annual report 2016 s e t o N Notes to the consolidated financial statements 7 Income tax expense a) Income tax expense: Current tax Deferred tax Deferred income tax (revenue) expense included in income tax expense comprises: Decrease (increase) in deferred tax assets (note 12) (Decrease) increase in deferred tax liabilities (note 16) Consolidated 30 June 2016 $ 30 June 2015 $ - - - - - - 240,978 (240,978) - (849,055) 849,055 - b) Numerical reconciliation of income tax expense to prima facie tax payable Profit/(Loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (890,079) (4,932,426) Tax at the Australian tax rate of 30% (2015: 30%) (267,024) (1,479,728) Tax effect of amounts which are not deductible (taxable) in calculating Taxable income: Non-taxable income: - Debt forgiveness - Research and development tax concession Non-deductible expenses: - Entertainment - Share-based payments - Other Deferred tax asset not recognised Under / over provision for income tax Income tax expense c) Tax losses Unused tax losses for which no deferred tax asset has been recognised Potential tax benefit @ 30% d) Unrecognised temporary differences Temporary differences for which deferred tax assets have not been recognised: Temporary differences Potential tax benefit @ 30% - (36,407) 53 - - - (57,283 12 2,363 - 303,377 - 1,534,636 - 267,024 1,479,728 - - 8,780,729 7,944,562 2,634,219 2,383,369 - - - - 58 Renascor Resources Limited ABN 90 135 531 341 annual report 2016 Notes to the consolidated financial statements 8 Current assets – Cash and cash equivalents Cash at bank and in hand a) Cash at bank and on hand s e t o N Consolidated 30 June 2016 $ 30 June 2015 $ 862,488 1,075,336 Cash at bank accounts are interest bearing attracting normal market interest rates.

Fair values of options at grant date are determined using the Black-Scholes Model. This option pricing model 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 to value options for the year ended 30 June 2016: Black Scholes Model inputs Options grant date Options expiry date Weighted average exercise price Weighted average life of the options Weighted average underlying share price Expected share price volatility Weighted average risk free interest rate Number of options issued Value (Black-Scholes) per option Total value of options issued e) Fair value of performance rights granted Sol Jar 01/10/2016 30/09/2016 $0.30 1 years $0.14 123.26% 1.98% 4,000,000 $0.0038 $15,194 Non-market related performance rights The assessed fair value at grant date of performance rights with non-market related vesting conditions were valued using the Black-Scholes model. The values derived from these models are allotted equally over the period from grant date to vesting date. The expense recognised is adjusted to reflect the number of rights for which the related service and non-market performance conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised as an expense is based on the number of awards that meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date. Market related performance rights granted The assessed fair value at grant date of performance rights is allotted equally over the period from grant date to vesting date. Fair values at grant date are determined using Monte Carlo Simulation. This method involves the use of a computer model to represent the operation of a complex financial system. A characteristic of the Monte Carlo Simulation is the generation of a large number of random samples from a specified probability distribution or distributions to represent the role of risk in the market. Monte Carlo simulates the path of the share price according to a probability distribution assumption. After a large number of simulations, the arithmetic average of the outcomes, discounted to the pricing date, is calculated to represent the performance right value. Monte Carlo Simulation is an approach that can accommodate complex exercise conditions. In particular, it can be used when the portion of options exercised depends on some function of the whole path followed by the share price, rather than just its value at expiry. The board determines the number of vested performance rights as at the test date based on assessment of achievement of the market based performance conditions. If the performance conditions have not been met, performance rights lapse and do not carry forward to the next test date. Performance rights that have not previously been exercised may lapse for a controllable event which causes cessation of employment. f) General terms and conditions All of these options and performance rights were issued by the Company and entitle the holder to one ordinary share in the Company for each option and performance rights that may be exercised. The options and performance rights were granted for no consideration. Once vested the options and performance rights can be exercised at any time up to the expiry date. Options and performance rights granted carry no dividend or voting rights. During the year covered by the above tables, 4,000,000 listed options were granted, 750,000 unlisted options expired, 433,333 performance rights vested and became exercisable and 66,666 performance rights lapsed. 74 Renascor Resources Limited ABN 90 135 531 341 annual report 2016 Notes to the consolidated financial statements s e t o N 31 Parent Entity financial information a) Summary financial information The individual financial statements for the Parent Entity show the following aggregate amounts: Statement of Financial Position Current assets Non-current assets Total assets Current liabilities Non-current liabilities Total liabilities Net assets Shareholders’ equity Contributed equity Share-based payment reserves Retained earnings Total equity Profit / (loss) for the year Total comprehensive income Parent entity 30 June 2016 $ 30 June 2015 $ 983,082 4,659,611 1,323,394 3,792,527 5,642,693 5,115,921 428,496 70,750 454,946 397,316 57,630 454,946 5,143,448 4,660,975 13,235,479 1,041,506 (9,133,537) 11,903,316 1,026,312 (8,268,653) 5,143,448 4,660,975 (864,884) (4,928,730) (864,884) (4,928,730) b) Contingent liabilities of the Parent Entity The Parent Entity has entered into Asset Sale Agreements with Hillment Pty Ltd to acquire tenement EL 4570 and a similar agreement with Hiltaba Gold Pty Ltd for EL4707.
