Directors' Report
Operating Results for the Year
Financial results
The loss after tax of the Group for the year ended 30 June 2020 was $3,128,112 (2019: $4,160,253).
The loss included a write down of the value of the Radio Gold of $1,681,834 upon its sale.
Capital Issues
During the reporting period the Company raised additional capital via an issue of ordinary shares of 75,000,000
ordinary shares at 4 cents each to raise $3,000,000. A further 16,958,700 ordinary shares were issued to extinguish
amounts owed to suppliers and directors of $690,148.
Mount Mackenzie
The Mount Mackenzie Gold Project is located 150km north west of Rockhampton, Queensland. The project includes a
28.4km2 tenement package held by the Group.
Located within the Connors Magmatic Arc of the New England Fold Belt region, the broader area has produced over 50
million ounces of gold and large amounts of copper and silver. The region is acknowledged as the largest high
sulphuration epithermal systems in Eastern Australia, comparable with those associated with major gold-copper
porphyry systems around the world.
During the financial year further exploration work resulted in the upgrading and expanding the JORC Resource to
3.47Mt at 1.18gpt gold and 9.0gpt silver for a total of 129 oz gold and 862 oz silver. The Group released an updated
scoping study confirming a potential low-cost gold project, generating 43,000 ounces of gold with a possible $63 million
in earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation from a $13 million capital investment.
The scoping study investigated a range of production and processing options and identifies a 300,000 tonnes per
annum open cut development with an onsite gold plant as the most appropriate case for the progression of the project
to Feasibility Study. The processing plant is proposed to be a low-cost modular crushing, grinding and CIL circuit.
An evaluation of MMGP indicates it would be a technically low risk operation supported by strong economic
performance. The scoping study has also identified opportunity for a staged increase in plant capacity to 500,000
tonnes per annum, and introducing a flotation circuit for recovery of a gold concentrate from the treatment of primary
ore. This option requires further investigation but has potential to recover a larger part of the primary resource than
currently envisaged.
A mineral development licence has been formally granted over the entire MMGP area, which encompasses the current
project area and all land required for its development.
Planning work associated with a program of diamond and reverse circulation drilling at Mount Mackenzie has also been
prepared to test weathering limits and the extent of primary mineralisation beneath the North Knoll and SW Slopes
prospects. Exploration planning associated with testing mineralisation associated with the Clive Creek prospects
(Quinine Gully and Sphinx) has also been completed.

Directors' Report
East Menzies
The East Menzies Gold Project is located 130km north of Kalgoorlie, with a collective surface area of 103km2 and
consists of over 50 tenements, a mixture of mining lease’s, mining lease applications, prospecting lease’s and
prospecting lease applications. These mining and exploration instruments are host to a 20km continuous strike of a
mineralised Greenstone Belt, including the Springfield Venn Gold Corridor, and the Goodenough Syncline.
Since acquisition, a total of 194 soil samples have been collected from a number of tenements for mobile metal ion
analysis which were subject to assay analysis. Work on compiling and evaluating historical exploration data has
commenced, and the Company is in the process of assembling a complete data base representing all historical and
recent exploration data. The database includes data from 13,895 holes, 17,090 geochemical samples and 97,502
assay intervals.
An analysis of the drilling data acquired has highlighted the overall shallow tenor of previous exploration. This historical
approach to drilling shallow drill holes has highlighted areas of near surface mineralisation, however, there still remains
significant exploration potential for further discoveries at depth and within areas that have yet to be drill tested. A review
of the open file multi element geochemical data as well as information contained within the project databases, has
revealed large coincident gold, arsenic, lead and sulphur anomalies within the Menzies tenement package. Many of
these have never been followed up by modern drilling. The geochemical samples when incorporated into the database
show areas that have known gold deposits, such as Granny Venn-Caesar which has a very consistent and focused
gold-in-soil response.
All historical projects within the Menzies region were imported into a 3D geology program and their data validated to
identify missing data and data errors. The projects include Granny Venn, Caesar, Jenny Venn, Goodenough, Maranoa
and Gigante Grande as well as many other smaller prospects. Each of the projects have had drilling planned to extend
the known mineralisation down dip and or along strike.
Radio Gold
During the reporting period the Group announced an agreement for farm-in, joint venture and tribute to the Radio Gold
Project by Bullfinch One Pty Limited (Bullfinch). Bullfinch will gain a 50% interest in the project, by undertaking
$4,000,000 in expenditure at Radio Gold over a 2-year farm-in period. The agreement also provides that Bullfinch has
the right to acquire a further 25% interest (bringing its total interest to 75%) in Radio Gold for $2,000,000 cash.
Pursuant to this agreement the Group recevied $500,000 during the 6 month period to 31 December 2019.
Subsequently the company received an offer from Summit Resource Holdings Pty Limited, a subsidiary of Nu Fortune
Gold Limited, to acquire the Group's remaining 93.75% interest in Radio Gold for $1,500,000. This offer was declared
unconditional during the reporting period and a total of $1,100,000 prior to 30 June 2020 was received. The balance of
$400,000 owing was received on 15 July 2020.

Directors' Report
Going Concern
The directors have prepared financial statements on a going concern basis which contemplates the continuity of
normal business activity and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.
For the 12 months ended 30 June 2020 the Group reported a loss after taxation of $3,128,112 (2018: $4,160,253), and
net cash used by operating activities was $2,207,947 (2019: $1,461,922). The directors intend to raise funds of
approximately $2,000,000 in February 2021 through the issue of shares. During the current phase of development, the
generation of sufficient funds from operating and financing activities in accordance with the Group’s current business
plan and growth forecasts is dependent on its ability to raise capital or to access other sources of finance.
These factors indicate a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt as to whether the Group will continue as
a going concern and therefore whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of
business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.
The directors believe that there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Group will be able to continue as a going
concern, after consideration of the following factors:
(i) the Group's current assets of $1,798,018 (2019: $1,074,174) were more than current liabilities of $454,476 (2019:
$1,659,020) at balance date;
(ii) the group has a cash balance of $1,356,267 at balance date;
(iii) the availability of equity and financing facilities to fund working capital requirements;
(iv) realising value from its assets through joint ventures or outright sale;
(v) the ability for the directors to scale back activities in order to preserve cash when required; and
(vi) continuing financial support from directors or related parties.
The directors are of the opinion that the use of the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate as they are
satisfied regarding the Group's ability to maintain the continued financial support of its directors, current financiers,
creditors and shareholders.
The financial statements do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset
amounts or to the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a
going concern.
Significant Events After Balance Date
On 15 July 2020 the Company received $400,000 in respect of the final balance owing from the sale of its interest in
the Radio Gold mining tenements.
On 10 August 2020 12,000,000 performance rights were cancelled upon the resignation of an employee.
There have been no other significant events occurring after the balance date which may affect either the Group's
operations, results of those operations or the Group's state of affairs.
Likely Development and Expected Results
Apart from the matters referred to above in the Operating Results for the year, other likely developments in the
operations of the Group and the expected results of those operations in subsequent financials years have not been
included in this report because the directors believe this could result in unreasonable prejudice to the Group.

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration
In order for the Company and Group to prosper and enhance shareholder value, the Group must be able to attract and
retain the highest calibre of executives. At this stage of the Group's development, a framework has not been
developed that links performance and KMP remuneration. The responsibilities of the Remuneration Committee, which
have been assumed by the full Board, include reviewing the remuneration of KMP and determining the nature and
amount of emoluments of KMP on an annual basis. In conducting this review reference is made to market and industry
conditions. Remuneration packages, can consist of base salary, fringe benefits, incentive schemes (including
performance related bonuses), superannuation, and entitlements upon retirement or termination, are reviewed with due
regard to performance and other relevant factors.
Where appropriate, share-based remuneration is provided to encourage KMP to focus on improving shareholder value
and also to reduce cash costs during the Group's development phase.
The aggregate amount of non-executive director fees is limited to $200,000 per annum as per a resolution of
shareholders. For further information, please refer to our corporate governance plan and annual governance
statement on our web site at www.rezgroup.com.au.
Short-term incentives and long-term incentives
Due to the current size of the Group and the extent of its operations limited short-term incentives, such as performance
based bonuses or longer term incentives, were provided to KMP other than as shown below.

intend to raise funds of approximately $2,000,000 in February 2021 through the issue of shares. During the
current phase of development, the generation of sufficient funds from operating and financing activities in
accordance with the Group’s current business plan and growth forecasts is dependent on its ability to raise
capital or to access other sources of finance.

Notes to the Financial Statements
For the year ended 30 June 2020
These factors indicate a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt as to whether the Group will
continue as a going concern and therefore whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the
normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.
The directors believe that there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Group will be able to continue as
a going concern, after consideration of the following factors:
(i) the Group's current assets of $1,798,018 (2019: $1,074,174) were more than current liabilities of $454,476
(2019: $1,659,020) at balance date;
(ii) the group has a cash balance of $1,356,267 at balance date;
(iii) the availability of equity and financing facilities to fund working capital requirements;
(iv) realising value from its assets through joint ventures or outright sale;
(v) the ability for the directors to scale back activities in order to preserve cash when required; and
(vi) continuing financial support from directors or related parties.
The directors are of the opinion that the use of the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate as they
are satisfied regarding the Group's ability to maintain the continued financial support of its directors, current
financiers, creditors and shareholders.
The financial statements do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of
recorded asset amounts or to the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the
Group not continue as a going concern.
d
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities
controlled by the Company. Control is achieved when the Company:
• has power over the investee;
• is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
• has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.
The Company reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that
there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.
Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases
when the Company loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary
acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income from the date the Company gains control until the date when the Company ceases to
control the subsidiary.
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the
Company and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the
owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests
having a deficit balance.
All intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between
members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.

Business combinations
Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in
a business combination is measured at fair value which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair
values of assets transferred by the Group, liabilities incurred by the Group to the former owners and the
equity instruments issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition-related costs are
recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-
controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the
acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the
liabilities assumed. If, after reassessment, the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets
acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-
controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held interest in the acquiree
(if any), the excess is recognised immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain.
f
Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Group's consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities,
and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these
assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying
amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimate uncertainty at the reporting
date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Group based its assumptions and estimates
on parameters available when the consolidated financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances
and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or
circumstances arising beyond the control of the Group. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when
they occur.
Carrying value of exploration, evaluation and development assets
The Group capitalises expenditure relating to exploration, evaluation and mine development where it is
considered likely to be recoverable or where the activities have not reached a stage which permits a
reasonable assessment of the existence of reserves. While there are certain areas of interest from which no
reserves have been extracted, the directors are of the continued belief that such expenditure should not be
written off since feasibility studies in such areas have not yet concluded.
The Group reclassifies exploration and evaluation expenditure to mine development assets when the Board
assess that the mine has reached a point where it is certain that extraction of ore will commence in the
immediate future.
Capitalised expenditure for exploration and evaluation is carried at the end of the reporting period at
$6,732,509 (2019: $5,138,321). Follwing the sale of its mine during the reporting period that was under
development, capitalised expenditure for mine development was nil at the end of the reporting period (2019:
$3,647,061).

Determination of mineral resources and ore reserves
The Group estimates its Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves in accordance with the Australasian Code of
Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (“the JORC Code”). The information
on mineral resources and ore reserves is prepared by or under the supervision of Competent Persons as
defined in the JORC Code. The amounts presented in the statement of Mineral Resources and Ore
Reserves are determined under the JORC Code where is information is available. When a resource or
reserve amount prepared in accordance with the JORC Code for a particular mine is not available, then no
amounts are disclosed. For the purposes of impairment testing of assets the Board applies JORC Code
verified information when it is available, or otherwise management estimates of potential resources.
There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating mineral resources and ore reserves and
assumptions that are valid at the time of estimation which may change significantly when new information
becomes available. Changes in the forecast prices of commodities, exchange rates, production costs or
recovery rates may change the economic status of reserves and may, ultimately, result in the reserves being
restated. Such changes in reserves could impact depreciation and amortisation rates, asset carrying values
and impairment assessments.
Amortisation of mine development expenditure
Mine development costs are amortised on a units of production basis over the life of the mine to which they
relate and during the financial year costs of $57,640 were amortised. In applying a units of production
method, amortisation is calculated using the expected total contained ounces with the mine to achieve a
consistent amortisation rate per ounce. To achieve this the amortisation rate is based on the ratio of the
annual ounces produced over the expected total contained ounces.
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Group is a going concern, refer to Note
2(c) for discussion on the basis of this assumption.
Equity component of converting loans
The equity component that arises from the ability of loan providers to convert their loans into ordinary shares
of the Company is calculated with reference to a market rate of interest. Due to the lack of a readily available
debt market for the Company at its stage of development, an estimated market rate has been determined.
Share based payments
The costs of the share-based payments are calculated on the basis of the fair value of the equity instrument
at grant date. Determining the fair value assumes choosing the most suitable valuation model for these
equity instruments, by which the characteristics of the grant have a decisive influence. This assumes also the
input into the valuation model of some relevant judgments, like the estimated expected life of the share
option and the market volatility of the Company's ordinary shares. No share-based payments were issued
during the year.
The judgments made and the model used are further detailed in Note 19.

Revenue recognition
The core principle of AASB 15 is that revenue is recognised on a basis that reflects the transfer of promised
goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration the Group expects to receive in
exchange for those goods or services. Revenue is recognised by applying a five-step model as follows:
1. identifying the contract with a customer;
2. identifying the performance obligations;
3. determining the transaction price;
4. allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations; and
5. recognising revenue when/as performance obligation(s) are satisfied.
Sale of goods
Revenue from sales of gold is recognised when control of the goods has transferred, being the point in time
when the goods have been shipped to the customer. Revenue is only recognised where it is highly probable
that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur and control gets completely passed on to the customers.
Costs to obtain a contract
Costs incurred that would have been incurred regardless of whether the contract was won are expensed,
unless those costs are explicitly chargeable to the customer in any case (whether or not the contract is won).
Other income
Other income is recognised on an accruals basis when the Company is entitled to it.
h
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense when incurred.
i
j
Cash and short-term deposits
Cash and short-term deposits in the statement of financial position comprise cash at banks and on hand,
short-term deposits and highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less.
For the purposes of the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and
short-term deposits as defined above.
Financial Instruments
Financial instruments are recognised initially on the date that the Group becomes party to the contractual
provisions of the instrument. On initial recognition, all financial instruments are measured at fair value plus
transaction costs (except for instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss where transaction
costs are expensed as incurred).
Financial assets
All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair
value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.
Annual Report
June 2020

Notes to the Financial Statements
For the year ended 30 June 2020
Classification
On initial recognition, the Group classifies its financial assets at amortised cost. Financial assets are not
reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless the Group changes its business model for managing
financial assets. Assets measured at amortised cost are financial assets where the business model is to
hold assets to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash
flows are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The Group's financial
assets measured at amortised cost comprise trade and other receivables and cash and cash equivalents in
the statement of financial position. Subsequent to initial recognition, these assets are carried at amortised
cost using the effective interest rate method less provision for impairment. Interest income, foreign
exchange gains or losses and impairment are recognised in profit or loss. Gain or loss on derecognition is
recognised in profit or loss.
Impairment of financial assets
Impairment of financial assets is recognised on an expected credit loss (ECL) basis for financial assets
measured at amortised cost. When determining whether the credit risk of a financial assets has increased
significant since initial recognition and when estimating ECL, the Group considers reasonable and
supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both
quantitative and qualitative information and analysis based on the Group's historical experience and informed
credit assessment and including forward looking information.
Credit losses are measured as the present value of the difference between the cash flows due to the Group
in accordance with the contract and the cash flows expected to be received. This is applied using a
probability weighted approach.
Impairment of trade and other receivables have been determined using the simplified approach in AASB 9
which uses an estimation of lifetime expected credit losses. The Group has determined the probability of non-
payment of the receivable and contract asset and multiplied this by the amount of the expected loss arising
from default.
Financial liabilities
The Group measures all financial liabilities initially at fair value less transaction costs, subsequently financial
liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. The financial liabilities of
the Group comprise trade and other payables, borrowings and finance lease liabilities.
(i) Financial assets
Financial assets are classified as financial assets as fair value through profit or loss, loans and
receivables, held-to-maturity investments, available-for-sale financial assets, or as derivatives designated
as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. The Group determines the classification of
its financial assets at initial recognition based on the nature and purpose of a financial asset.

June 2020
26
Notes to the Financial Statements
For the year ended 30 June 2020
(ii) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not
quoted in an active market. After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method, less impairment. Amortised cost is calculated
by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of
the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in the income statement in finance costs for loans or other
operating expenses for receivables.
(iii) Impairment of financial assets
The Group assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a
group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be
impaired if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that has occurred
since the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred "loss event") and that loss event has an impact on the
estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably
estimated.
(iv) Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified as trade and other payables, loans and borrowings. The Group
determines the classification of its financial liabilities at initial recognition.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings, net of
directly attributable transaction costs.
Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss are designated at
the initial date of recognition, and only if the criteria in AASB 139 are satisfied. The Group has not
designated any financial liability as, at fair value through profit or loss.
(v) Loans and borrowings
After initial recognition, interest bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised
cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are
derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process.
Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or
costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in finance costs in the income
statement.
k
Income tax
Current income tax
Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current period are measured at the amount expected to be
recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount
are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date in the countries where the Group
operates and generates taxable income.

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets
and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except:
when the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability
in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither
the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or
when the taxable temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or
interests in joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it
is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax
credits and unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that
taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry forward of
unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:
when the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial
recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the
transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or
when the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or
interests in joint ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that it is
probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be
available against which the temporary difference can be utilised.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when
the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or
substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss. Deferred
tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income or
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current
tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable
entity and the same taxation authority.
l
Goods and services tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:
when the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority,
in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense
item as applicable; and
receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST included.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of
receivables or payables in the balance sheet.
Cash flows are included in the Cash Flow Statement on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows
arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority
are classified as operating cash flows.

m
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated
impairment losses, if any. Such cost includes the cost of replacing part of property, plant and equipment and
borrowing costs for long-term construction projects if the recognition criteria are met. When significant parts
of property, plant and equipment are required to be replaced at intervals, the Group recognises such parts as
individual assets with specific useful lives and depreciates them accordingly. Likewise, when a major
inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a
replacement if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognised in
profit or loss as incurred.
Depreciation is calculated using a combination of straight-line and diminishing-value basis over the estimated
useful life of all assets.
An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognised upon
disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising
on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the
carrying amount of the asset) is included in the income statement when the asset is derecognised.
The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed
at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate. Property, plant and equipment are
depreciated over periods of three to five years.
n
Exploration and evaluation expenditure
Exploration and evaluation activity involves the search for mineral resources, including gold and copper, and
includes assessing all available geophysical data including gravity, magnetic and seismic and collation of
additional data; exploratory drilling; determining and examining the volume and grade of the resource; and
cost of acquisition of exploration tenements.
Administration costs that are not directly attributable to a specific exploration area are charged to the profit or
loss. Licence costs paid in connection with a right to explore in an existing exploration area are capitalised
and amortised over the term of the permit. Exploration and evaluation expenditure is capitalised in respect of
each identifiable area of interest as the exploration and evaluation activity has not reached a stage which
permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of commercially recoverable gold deposits that are of
sufficient scale to support the project concept.
As the asset is not available for use, it is not depreciated. All capitalised exploration and evaluation
expenditure is monitored for indication of impairment. Where a potential impairment is indicated, assessment
is performed for each area of interest in conjunction with the group of operating assets (representing a cash
generating unit) to which the exploration is attributed. When production commences, the assets for the
relevant area of interest are amortised over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the
economically recoverable reserves.
Accumulated exploration and evaluation expenditure in relation to an abandoned area are written-off in full in
profit and loss in the period in which the decision of abandon the area is made.

o
Site restoration
Site restoration costs include the dismantling and removal of mining plant, equipment and building structures,
waste removal and rehabilitation of the site in accordance with the requirements of the mining permits. Such
costs are determined using estimates of future costs, current legal requirements and technology.
Costs of site restoration are recognised in full at present value as a non-current liability. An equivalent
amount is capitalised as part of the cost of the asset when an obligation arises to decommission or restore a
site to a certain condition after abandonment as a result of bringing the assets to its present location. In
determining the costs of site restoration there is uncertainty regarding the nature and extent of the restoration
due to community expectations and future legislation.
p
Impairment of non-financial assets
The Group assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If
any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group estimates the
asset's recoverable amount. An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's or cash-generating
unit's ("CGU's") fair value less costs to sell and its value-in-use. Recoverable amount is determined for an
individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from
other assets or groups of assets. When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable
amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing value-in-use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-
tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific
to the asset. In determining fair value less costs to sell, recent market transactions are taken into account. If
no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are
corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded companies or other available fair
value indicators.
The Group bases its impairment calculation on detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which are
prepared separately for each of the Group's CGU's to which the individual assets are allocated. These
budgets and forecast calculations generally cover a period of five years. For longer periods, a long-term
growth rate is calculated and applied to project future cash flows after the fifth year.
Impairment losses of continuing operations are recognised in the income statement in expenses.
For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is
an indication that previously recognised impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such
indication exists, the Group estimates the asset's or CGU's recoverable amount. A previously recognised
impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the
asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The reversal is limited so that the
carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that
would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in
prior years. Such reversal is recognised in the income statement unless the asset is carried at a revalued
amount, in which case, the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase.
q
Assets held for sale
A discontinued operation is a component of the consolidated entity that has been disposed of or is classified
as held for sale and that represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations, is
part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of such a line of business or area of operations, or is a subsidiary
acquired exclusively with a view to resale. The results of discontinued operations are presented separately
on the face of the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Share-based payment transactions
Equity-settled share-based payments to employees and others providing similar services are measured at
the fair value of the equity instrument at the grant date. Fair value is measured by use of either a binominal or
Black Scholes model. The expected life used in the model has been adjusted, based on management’s best
estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions, and behavioural considerations.
Further details on how the fair value of equity-settled share-based transactions has been determined can be
found in Note 19. No share-based payments were issued during the year.
The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a
straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of equity instruments that will
eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity.
Equity-settled share-based payment transactions with parties other than employees are measured at the fair
value of the goods and services received, except where the fair value cannot be estimated reliably, in which
case they are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted, measured at the date the entity
obtains the goods or the counterparty renders the service. For cash-settled share-based payments, a liability
equal to the portion of the goods or services received is recognised at the current fair value determined at
each reporting date, with any changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss for the year.
s
Employee benefits provision
Provision is made for employee benefits accumulated as a result of employees rendering services up to the
reporting date. These benefits include wages and salaries, annual leave, and long service leave.
Liabilities arising in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and any other short-term employee benefits
are measured at their nominal amounts based on remuneration rates which are expected to be paid when
the liability is settled. All other employee benefit liabilities are measured at the present value of the estimated
future cash outflow to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. In
determining the present value of future cash outflows, the market yield as at the reporting date on national
government bonds, which have terms to maturity approximating the terms of the related liability, are used.
t
Contributed equity
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or
options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
u
Comparatives
Where necessary, comparatives have been reclassified and repositioned for consistency with current year

New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not
yet mandatory, have not been early adopted by the consolidated entity for the annual reporting period ended
30 June 2020. The consolidated entity's assessment of the impact of these new or amended Accounting
Standards and Interpretations, most relevant to the consolidated entity, are set out below.
Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting (Conceptual Framework)
The revised Conceptual Framework is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January
2020 and early adoption is permitted. The Conceptual Framework contains new definition and recognition
criteria as well as new guidance on measurement that affects several Accounting Standards. Where the
consolidated entity has relied on the existing framework in determining its accounting policies for
transactions, events or conditions that are not otherwise dealt with under the Australian Accounting
Standards, the consolidated entity may need to review such policies under the revised framework. At this
time, the application of the Conceptual Framework is not expected to have a material impact on the
consolidated entity's financial statements.

The Group has tax losses as at the 30 June 2020 of $15,463,530 (2019: $12,435,620). The benefit relating to
these and the current year losses has not been recognised in the financial report at 30 June 2020 as it is not
probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the Group would be able to utilise these losses.
Tax returns for the Group for the year ended 30 June 2020 are in progress at the date of this report.

Current and prior year tax losses will only be available to offset against future profits if:
(i) the Group and the Company derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to
enable the benefit from the deductions for the losses to be realised;
(ii) the Group and the Company continue to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by tax
legislation; and
(iii) no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Group and the Company in realising the benefit from the

Discontinued operations
On 1 August 2019 the Group publicly announced a farm-in agreement had been signed in respect of its Radio
Gold mine. Subsequently the agreement was amended to be an outright sale of 100% of the Group's interests
in Radio Gold. As at 30 June 2020 a remaining balance of $400,000 was owing in respect of the sale, which
was received on 15 July 2020, at which point title to Radio Gold's tenements was transferred to the acquirer
(subject to Ministerial Consent). Accordingly, as of 30 June 2020 Radio Gold was classified as a disposal held
for sale and a discontinued operation. The results of Radio Gold for the year are presented below:

Exploration licenses are carried at cost of acquisition less impairment losses. The recoverability of the carrying
amount of the exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on successful development and commercial
exploitation, or alternatively, sale of the respective areas of interest. The recoverable amount of development
expenditure is determined as the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use.

18 Financial instruments
Financial risk management objectives
(a)
The Group’s financial instruments consist mainly of deposits with banks, accounts receivable and payable, loans,
convertible instruments and derivatives. The main purpose of non-derivative financial instruments is to raise finance
for Group operations. The directors consider that the limited risks mean there is no need to enter into risk
management strategies involving derivative instruments.
The Group is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk. There have been no substantive changes in the
types of risks the Group is exposed to, how these risks arise, or the Board’s objectives, policies and processes for
managing or measuring the risks from the previous period.
The Group manages liquidity risk by a combination of maintaining cash reserves, banking facilities and continuously
monitoring forecast and actual cash flows. Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the board of
directors, which has built an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Group’s
short, medium and long-term funding and liquidity management requirements. Risks are managed through sensitivity
analysis to model the impact of changes upon the Group’s profits.
The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at balance date of
recognised financial assets, is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed
in the balance sheet and notes to the financial statements.
(b)
Significant accounting policies
Details of the significant accounting policies and methods adopted, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of
measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised, in respect of each class of financial
asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in Note 2 to the financial statements.

Fair value of financial instruments
(c)
The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:
-
-
the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities with standard terms and conditions and traded on active
liquid markets are determined with reference to quoted market prices; and
the fair value of other financial assets and financial liabilities are determined in accordance with generally accepted
pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis.
(d) Categories of financial instruments
The following table details the carrying amounts and fair values of the Group's financial assets and financial liabilities.
The directors consider that the carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities recorded at amortised cost in the
financial statements approximate their fair values.

(i) Financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, are grouped into Levels 1 to
3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable.
Level 1 - fair value measurements are those derived from quoted sources (unadjusted) in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1
that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset of
liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The fair value of derivative instruments is significantly affected by movements in interest rates. Sensitivity of the
valuation of the derivative liabilities to changes in these factors is shown below at item (j).

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

(e) Credit risk exposures
Credit risk arises principally from the Group’s receivables and cash and bank balances. Credit risk is kept continually
under review and managed to reduce the incidence of material losses being incurred by the non-receipt of monies
due. The Group’s financial assets include trade and other receivables and loans to related entities.
The maximum exposure to credit risk on financial assets of the Group which has been recognised on the balance
sheets is generally the carrying amount, net of any provisions for doubtful debts. The Group has no significant
concentrations of credit risk with any single counterparty or group of counterparties. The Group's financial assets are
limited to credit risk exposures to Australia on a geographical basis. Trade and other receivables that are neither past
due nor impaired are limited to a few counterparties which are considered credit worthy.

of:
-
-
-
continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows;
having in place loan facilities structured to grow as the size of the business increases; and
arranging issues of securities as required.

To the extent possible maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities are matched.
The board reviews the capital structure on a regular basis. The board does not have a set debt level target however
the level of borrowings is in line with expectations.
The following tables detail the Group’s remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities. The
tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on
which the Group could be required to pay. The table includes principal and interest cash flows at the face value of the
amount owing and therefore the figures differ from those shown in the financial statements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Members of Resources & Energy Group Limited and its controlled subsidiaries
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Resources & Energy Group Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries
(the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2020, the
consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes
in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial
statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors' declaration.
In our opinion the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act
2001, including:
(i) giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 30 June 2020 and of its financial
performance for the year then ended; and
(ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those
standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of
our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the
Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board's
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial
report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to
the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor's
report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
opinion.
Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
We draw attention to Note 1 in the financial report, which indicated that the For the 12 months ended 30 June
2020 the Group reported a loss after taxation of $3,128,112 (2018: $4,160,253), and net cash used by operating
activities was $2,207,947 (2019: $1,461,922). The ability to continue as a going concern and realise its
exploration and evaluation expenditure asset is dependent on a number of factors, the most significant of which
is obtaining additional funding to complete its exploration activities. As stated in Note 1, these events or conditions,
along with other matters as set forth in Note1, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant
doubt on the consolidated entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of
this matter.

report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

The carrying value of exploration and evaluation
assets is subjective based on Group’s ability, and
intention, to continue to explore the asset. The
carrying value may also be impacted by the mineral
reserves and resources may not be commercially

amounts stated in the financial statements may not
be recoverable.

Other Information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included
in the Group's annual report for the year ended 30 June 2020, but does not include the financial report and the
auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any
form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing
so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge
obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other
information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair
view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal
control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true
and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as
a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of
accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic
alternative but to do so.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance
with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements
can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably
be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and
Assurance Standards Board website at: https://www.auasb.gov.au/admin/file/content102/c3/ar2_2020.pdf
