Dear Fellow Shareholder,

This year has seen many fundamental developments that affect our Company. Unquestionably, those external forces, reflected in the
macro-global economic and political framework, deeply affect the business environment in which we operate and influence our actions.
Internally, we have been deliberate and have adjusted our Company’s underlying structure to broaden our opportunities.

Importantly, we began the year by rebalancing and adding significant operational and development expertise to the Board,
with the appointment of Ian Smith and Ron Douglas. As a smaller company, swift and informed decisions are crucial to navigating
the path forward. Our ability to enter into and transact on the recent Hog Ranch acquisition is evidence of their already
significant contribution.

To explain further our acquisition of Hog Ranch, let me reflect on the DNA of Rex Minerals as an explorer with development aspirations.

There can be no doubt that our portfolio, built on copper in South Australia, gives us significant “pounds in the ground” leverage
within one of the commodities crucial to the electrification revolution which underpins efforts in some parts of the world to reduce
carbon emissions.

It is evident that the pace of this revolution and the obvious emerging supply deficit has yet to materialise.

Viewed simplistically, the next few years could see a future where either:

(cid:129)

the world generally moves forward with confidence into this electrification revolution and the inherent supply constraints in
the copper market see Rex shareholders rewarded; or

(cid:129)

the electrification revolution and/or global economic growth stalls and the copper supply squeeze continues to be delayed.

Currently, the latter scenario prevails, and in this reality, gold offers a unique hedge and industry investment opportunity.

Seizing on this thematic brings us to Hog Ranch. Given our exposure to Australia, scanning the world, no jurisdiction beckons more
favourably for geological, geographical and sovereign opportunity than Nevada.

In one transaction, we have significantly reduced sovereign risk, and diversified commodity risk to add the perfect hedge investment.

In this regard, I would like to reflect on some hard numbers which speak to the shareholder benefits we see from this opportunity:

(cid:129)

(cid:129)

In one year, the gold price has moved from an already-strong incentive price of US$1,200 to US$1,500/oz,
an increase of 25%.

In the same timeframe, the copper price has declined by approximately 16% and sits at two-year lows, well below the
consensus incentive price to replace production.

(cid:129) Nevada is recognised by the Fraser Institute (Investment Attractiveness Index) as the Number One destination globally –
up from second spot last year. In the same period, and while still attractive, South Australia has slipped from Number 14
to Number 24.

(cid:129) The gold district in Nevada ranks arguably as one of the most prolific and prospective geological opportunities globally.

(cid:129) Whilst completing due diligence on what is an exploration investment, we have already completed and issued a maiden

resource statement for the prospect.

(cid:129) We negotiated the transaction, on a no cash basis at a share price circa A$0.06 (roughly A$600K for the first tranche)

which equates to an entry price based on the maiden resource of A$0.72/oz or US$0.49/oz.

So Rex shareholders now have access to an asset acquired for notionally less than US$0.50/oz on day one.

I might draw your attention to just a fraction of the credentials of the small team that we have at Rex. Ian Smith ran Newcrest,
Australia’s largest gold miner, taking it from near obscurity to a behemoth, and acquiring its prize asset, Lihir along the way. Richard
Laufmann, having operated the WMC Gold Operations, as a by-line constructed one of the most successful Heap Leach projects in the
country during his tenure and has a long history with gold.

To summarise, this investment offers Rex shareholders immediate exposure to gold and provides camp-scale opportunities for small
and large low-grade surface projects in addition to exciting high-grade underground epithermal targets.

This in no way changes the fact that Hillside is our flagship asset. The past year and immediate period ahead see us continue to ready
the project for development. We have committed over $15 million of our precious funds and five years to the Program for Environment
Protection and Rehabilitation (PEPR) licensing process alone, including many hundreds of consultations with community and other
stakeholders. We are very close to the ‘next steps’ here and we hope to report on this in the very near future.

In continuing this theme, with the PEPR resolution a key component in driving finalisation of the updated feasibility study, as well as
next steps in our financing discussions, we will update the market as we make material progress on this front.

I look forward to an exciting road ahead, in which we can now leverage both opportunities to our best commercial benefit.

Yours sincerely,

Dr David Carland
Chairman

Mr Richard Laufmann

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS for the year ended 30 June 2019

CORPORATE

The year commenced with the completion of Rex Minerals Ltd’s (Rex or the Company) successful capital raising which
was announced on 12 June 2018. Following shareholder approval on 25 July 2018, the Company issued 21.4 million
ordinary shares and received $2.4 million before costs for Tranche 2 and issued a further 9.3 million ordinary shares for
an additional $1.0 million for the Share Purchase Plan, before costs. 

The Company completed the full assignment of the Adelaide office lease to a new tenant and relocated its registered office
and principal place of business to Level 6, 1 Collins Street, Melbourne during the financial year. The lease assignment
represents a saving on the Company’s remaining five-year lease commitment totalling approximately $2.5 million. 

Rex was pleased to appoint two Non-Executive Directors to its Board, Ian Smith and Ron Douglas, on 18 February 2019.
The appointment of two such highly experienced mining operators significantly enhances the strategic, technical and
operational talent within the Company.

HILLSIDE PROJECT – SOUTH AUSTRALIA

Rex submitted the full Program for Environment Protection and Rehabilitation (PEPR) document in February 2018 and
obtained the first full formal feedback from the Department of Energy and Mining (DEM) and other regulatory
departments in September 2018. Rex proceeded to work through the feedback with the regulators, resulting in the next
full version of the PEPR being submitted in June 2019. 

An independent peer review of the Hillside PEPR was commissioned in May 2019 by Rex confirming committed
design/engineering and management controls, if implemented as described, are appropriate in the context of the agreed
Environmental Outcomes for the Hillside Project; and the nominated monitoring program as described in the PEPR will
be sufficient to demonstrate the performance of the Hillside Project in achieving the Environmental Outcomes.

All reviewing agencies have been through their respective sections of the PEPR with our team, noting that the PEPR had
not technically changed since the February 2018 submission. It is anticipated any further comments will be minor and will
provide for completion of the PEPR after which the remaining land access agreements can be finalised. Throughout the
year Rex continued to meet with a variety of community members, businesses and other stakeholders around the Hillside
Project and more broadly the Yorke Peninsula.

The technical team at Rex has been focused on the Extended Feasibility Study (2015 EFS) cost update into 2019
dollars, including a detailed review and refinement of certain decisions and assumptions contained in the original.
While some cost inputs have escalated over the past four years (eg: power and exchange rate assumptions), the
possibilities of significant operating cost savings have emerged in the areas of mining fleet operations and maintenance.
The quantification of these savings has warranted the engagement of external parties, thus contributing to delaying
our process. One key objective in beginning this EFS update was always to improve the economics of the Hillside Project,
and this is fundamentally still important. 

Completion of the Chinese Feasibility Study (CFS) has been delayed by Rex due to costing updates of the mining sections,
however finalisation of the CFS report is progressing. The purpose of commissioning the CFS was to convert our EFS to
Chinese feasibility standards, which are understood by Chinese banks. This should provide Rex with a clear opportunity to
engage Chinese parties interested in financing the project. In addition, it allowed us to assess the issues should we choose
to pursue Chinese Engineering, Procurement, Construction Management (EPCM) development in the future. 

Rex completed its lease-wide strategic review of its exploration licenses to evolve further the exploration target
portfolio, this has generated new regional Iron Oxide Copper Gold (IOCG) targets under minimal cover. The Company
is now considering the timing and financing required to progress these, in what we consider a highly prospective IOCG
land package.

The Hillside Project is situated 12 kilometres south of the township of Ardrossan on the Yorke Peninsula, South Australia
(Figure 1). The Hillside Project is planned around an open pit mine, initially with a 13-year mine life, producing
approximately 35,000 tonnes (t) of copper contained in concentrate and 24,000 ounces (oz) of gold per annum.

REX MINERALS LTD

HOG RANCH – NEVADA, USA

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS (Continued) for the year ended 30 June 2019

Acquisition 

Rex entered into a non-binding Heads of Agreement (HOA) with Hog Ranch Group Pty Ltd (HRG) on 17 July 2019.
The non-binding HOA allowed Rex exclusivity to complete due diligence and finalise commercial terms required to prepare
formal documentation. Rex completed six months due diligence (both before and after the signing of the HOA) and all
decisions regarding this acquisition were made by the Board, subject to review by an independent subcommittee
established for this purpose.

Rex announced on 20 August 2019 that it had completed the acquisition of HRG including the Hog Ranch Gold Property
(Hog Ranch) in Nevada, USA. This investment offers Rex shareholders immediate exposure to the gold sector in one of the
world’s most well-endowed gold regions and immediately diversifies our commodity spread and geographical risk. Hog
Ranch provides camp-scale opportunities for small and large low-grade surface projects, in addition to exciting high-grade
underground epithermal deposits.

The consideration for the acquisition is based on the Rex share price at completion date (9 cents per share) and is deemed
to be $900,000 plus an additional 20 million shares (at an imputed value at this share price of $1.8 million) if the
milestone outcomes are achieved. The consideration is payable in the following form:

     1.   10 million fully paid ordinary Rex shares; 

     2.   20 million Hog Ranch Consideration Rights which convert to Rex shares on the outcome of the

following Milestones:

           a.

5 million Hog Ranch Consideration Rights on announcement by Rex to ASX by no later than 31 October
2024 on completion of an Inferred Mineral Resource in addition to any Indicated and Measured Mineral
Resource in total of 2 million ounces (Moz) or higher of contained gold as defined by the 2012 JORC Code
with respect to the Hog Ranch Project and has a minimum grade of 0.4 grams per tonne (g/t) of gold in
addition to a minimum tonnage of 100 million tonnes (Mt); and

           b.

15 million Hog Ranch Consideration Rights on announcement by Rex to ASX by no later than 31 October
2024 of the Board approving a decision to mine the Hog Ranch Project.

Consistent with ASX requirements, the terms of the Hog Ranch Consideration Rights are subject to shareholder approval
at the upcoming Annual General Meeting (AGM) to be held in November 2019. The AGM will also seek the approval of
the shares to be issued to Rex’s CEO as part of the HRG acquisition. The notice of meeting will outline further information
and details of the terms subject to shareholder approval.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS (Continued) for the year ended 30 June 2019

HOG RANCH – NEVADA, USA (CONTINUED)

Mineral Resource Summary 

On 2 September 2019, Rex announced a maiden Inferred Mineral Resource estimate for Hog Ranch (the documentation
and reporting of which has been independently peer reviewed by Peter Stoker of AMC Consultants Pty Ltd). The Inferred
Mineral Resource consists of 44Mt @ 0.6g/t equating to 0.83Moz of gold.

The maiden Mineral Resource is based on a large historical drilling database containing a total of 2,678 drill holes.
A large percentage of this historical drilling was completed by Western Mining Corporation Ltd (WMC) which operated
an open pit and heap leach operation there from 1988 through to 1991. 

The Mineral Resource is based on the large shallow disseminated gold mineralisation that exists from surface at Hog
Ranch and extends to 175m below surface.

There is considerable evidence for further extensive shallow gold mineralisation at Hog Ranch outside the Inferred Mineral
Resource. Rex has defined an Exploration Target of approximately 0.6Moz to 1.6Moz based on drill hole data that lies
outside of the Inferred Mineral Resource which includes a distance up to 100m from the drill data (lower range estimate),
and a distance up to 400m from the drill data (upper range estimate). This Exploration Target takes into consideration
the natural variation of the gold grade. Table 2 below is a summary of the Exploration Target ranges using a cut-off grade
of 0.3g/t gold.

Similar additional parameters as defined for the Hog Ranch Inferred Mineral Resource, as announced by Rex on
2 September 2019, were also applied to the extrapolated block model which is the basis for the Exploration Target.
The potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration
to estimate a Mineral Resource in this area and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a
Mineral Resource.

HOG RANCH – NEVADA, USA (CONTINUED)

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS (Continued) for the year ended 30 June 2019

Deeper High-Grade Vein Hosted Targets

There is an extensive body of research which has shown that underneath shallow gold deposits, similar to the dispersed
gold mineralisation identified at Hog Ranch, there often exists vein hosted gold deposits which can contain very high-grade
gold mineralisation. This mineralised zone is often at a specific depth range known as the “boiling zone”. This boiling zone
typically exists a few hundred metres beneath the ancient surface from when the gold mineralisation was deposited, and at
Hog Ranch, is interpreted to exist at least at 150m or further beneath almost all the historical drilling information
(Figure 3).

HOG RANCH – NEVADA, USA (CONTINUED)

Deeper High-Grade Vein Hosted Targets (Continued)

The high-grade vein hosted gold mineralisation at the Sleeper and Midas deposits are examples of this style of target,
which are interpreted to have formed as part of the same geological event as Hog Ranch.  

Evidence at Hog Ranch of this style of
deposit includes: 

(cid:129) Numerous small but very high-grade
quartz-adularia veins (Figure 4),
particularly in the mined 139 and
Geib open pits; and

(cid:129) Multiple very high-grade assay results

within the Hog Ranch drill hole
database (Table 3). 

Figure 4: Laminated quartz-adularia vein
from the 139 pit at Hog Ranch. Significant
amounts of fine visible gold can be identified
along some specific laminations within this
rock sample.

Table 3: Significant drilling results (over 20g/t gold) from the Hog Ranch drill hole database outside of the mined
historical open pits. All reported intersections are down hole lengths only and not true widths. The drill intersections
are largely interpreted to be from near vertical quartz veins which implies that the true width may be much less than
the reported down hole lengths.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (Continued) for the year ended 30 June 2019

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

The principal activity of the Group during the year was minerals exploration, evaluation and development. Rex intends to
make the best use of, and fully exploit, the Hillside Mineral Resource, and remains committed to the development of the
Hillside Project. There were no significant changes in the nature of the Group’s principal activities during the year.
The Group’s principal objective is to create value through the discovery and development of mineral resources. Our
strategy to deliver on this objective is to:

(cid:129) finalise our PEPR to ensure all approvals are in place so that the Hillside Project is positioned to start up

coincident with the copper supply deficit currently emerging; 
optimise the Hillside Project through:
> capital cost reductions by competitive re-tender of plant and equipment;
> an operating effectiveness review;
complete the acquisition of Hog Ranch Group Pty Ltd including the Hog Ranch Gold property (Hog Ranch)
located in Nevada, USA; 
announce a maiden Inferred Mineral Resource for Hog Ranch; 
further the Hog Ranch Resource validation and commence broader economic studies;
further develop the exploration target portfolio, for our highly prospective gold mining claims in Nevada and our
Iron Oxide Copper Gold (IOCG) tenements in South Australia; and
evolve the pool of corporate and financing options available.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW

The income statement shows a loss after tax of $5.1 million (2018: $5.2 million) for the year. The Group has no bank
debt. As at 30 June 2019, the Group had a cash position of $2.7 million (2018: $4.0 million). Operating activities
resulted in a net cash outflow for the year of $4.6 million (2018: $4.8 million).

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE STATE OF AFFAIRS

There were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group during the financial year.

DIVIDENDS PAID OR RECOMMENDED

The Directors do not recommend the payment of a dividend and no amount has been paid or declared by way of a dividend
to the date of this report.

EVENTS SINCE THE END OF THE FINANCIAL YEAR

Rex announced on 20 August 2019 completion of the acquisition of Hog Ranch Group Pty Ltd and has issued 9,353,849
fully paid ordinary shares as consideration to the vendors other than the CEO. The consideration to be issued to the CEO,
together with the Hog Ranch Consideration Rights, are subject to shareholder approval at the upcoming AGM to be held
in November 2019.

Other than mentioned above, no matters or circumstances have arisen since 30 June 2019 that have significantly affected
the Group’s operations, results or state of affairs.

LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Group is working towards the development of the Hillside Project and continued minerals exploration on the
tenements and mineral claims owned or controlled by the Group. 

Other than that which is disclosed throughout the Annual Report, further information about likely developments in the
operations of the Group and the expected results of those operations in future financial years has not been included in this
report because disclosure of the information would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the Group.

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION

The Group’s operations are subject to environmental regulation in respect of mineral tenements relating to exploration

premium is subject to a confidentiality clause under the insurance policy.

The Company has entered into an agreement with Directors and Executive Officers to indemnify these individuals against
any claims and related expenses, which arise as a result of their work in their respective capacities.

The Company has not provided any insurance or indemnity for the auditor of the Company.

REMUNERATION REPORT – AUDITED

The Directors present the Remuneration Report for the year ended 30 June 2019, outlining key aspects of the
remuneration policy and framework and the remuneration awarded during the year.

Principles of compensation 

Remuneration is referred to as compensation throughout this report.

Key Management Personnel (KMP) comprise the Directors of the Company and Senior Executives for the Group. KMP
have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company and the Group. 

Compensation packages may include a mix of fixed and variable compensation, and short-term and long-term
performance-based incentives.

Fixed compensation

Fixed compensation consists of base compensation (which is calculated on a total cost basis and includes any fringe
benefits tax charges related to employee benefits including motor vehicles), as well as leave entitlements and employer
contributions to superannuation funds.

Compensation levels are reviewed annually through a process that considers individual, segment and overall performance
of the Group. Market research provides analysis and guidance for compensation.

Performance linked compensation

Performance linked compensation may include both short-term and long-term incentives, and is designed to reward senior
executives for meeting or exceeding their financial and personal objectives. The short-term incentive is an ‘at risk’ bonus
provided in the form of cash, while the long-term incentive is provided as options over ordinary shares of the Company
pursuant to the terms and conditions of the options.

REX MINERALS LTD

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (Continued) for the year ended 30 June 2019

REMUNERATION REPORT – AUDITED (CONTINUED)

Short-term incentive

The short-term incentive (STI) is a discretionary bonus provided in the form of cash. At the end of the financial year,
the Board assesses the performance of the Group and individuals. 

The Board determines and approves the cash incentive to be paid to individuals. During the year, no STI cash bonuses
were paid or payable.

Long-term incentive 

The long-term incentive (LTI) is provided as options over ordinary shares of the Group. The Board believes the LTI is
an important component of a comprehensive remuneration strategy. It aligns participants’ interests with those of
shareholders by linking their overall total rewards to the long-term success of the Company and helps retain cash funds
within the Company.

The Board received shareholder approval for an Option Incentive Plan at the Annual General Meeting on 22 November
2018. The plan is administered by the Board which has the discretion to determine eligibility to participate in the plan.

Consequences of performance on shareholder wealth

The variable components of the Group’s Executives’ remuneration (the STI and LTI) seek to encourage alignment of
management performance and shareholders’ interests by linking remuneration to the performance of the Group.
Whilst the Remuneration Committee takes into consideration the indices detailed below, the Board acknowledges that
as an exploration and development company, the use of such indices does not fully reflect the Group’s performance.

Service agreements 

In line with Group policy, the Group has entered into contracts with each of its Executive Officers, and they are capable
of termination on up to two months’ notice. The Group retains the right to terminate a contract immediately by making
payment in lieu of notice. Executive Officers are also entitled to receive (on termination of employment) their statutory
entitlements of accrued annual and long service leave, together with any superannuation benefits. The employment
contract provides for no additional entitlement on termination in the event of removal for misconduct or gross negligence.

The employment contract outlines the components of compensation paid to the Executive Officers, but does not prescribe
how compensation levels are modified year to year. Compensation levels are reviewed each year to meet the principles of
the compensation policy. There is currently no STI plan offered to Executive Officers. The Company has established an
Option Incentive Plan, and the Board may invite Executive Officers to participate under the terms and conditions of the
plan as an LTI.

Non-Executive Directors 

Total compensation for all Non-Executive Directors, last voted upon by shareholders at the 2011 AGM, is not to exceed
$500,000 per annum and is set based on advice from external advisors with reference to fees paid to other Non-Executive
Directors of comparable companies.

The Chairman and Non-Executive Directors do not receive performance related remuneration. Directors’ fees cover all
main Board activities and membership of Board committees.

REX MINERALS LTD

DIRECTORS’ REPORT (Continued) for the year ended 30 June 2019

REMUNERATION REPORT – AUDITED (CONTINUED)

Shares under option

All options refer to unquoted options over ordinary shares of Rex Minerals Ltd, which are exercisable on a one-for-one
basis under the terms and conditions of the Option Incentive Plan. The options do not entitle the holder to participate in
any share issue of the Company. All options expire on the earlier of their expiry date or in the case of termination, as
defined in the terms and conditions of the plan.

During the year, the Company issued 2.0 million options and issued 3.0 million ordinary shares as a result of the exercise
of options. At 30 June 2019, there were 15.8 million unquoted options over ordinary shares of the Company, 13.8 million
at an exercise price of 6.3 cents expiring 30 November 2019 and 2.0 million at an exercise price of 8.4 cents, expiring
31 January 2023. Since the end of the financial year, the Company has not issued any ordinary shares as a result of the
exercise of options. 

Reconciliation of options and ordinary shares held by Key Management Personnel (KMP)

Options

The table below shows a reconciliation of unquoted options over ordinary shares in the Company held directly, indirectly or
beneficially by each KMP including their related parties, during the financial year. 

The fair value of the options is calculated at the date of grant, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and allocated
to each reporting period evenly over the period from grant to vesting date.

REMUNERATION REPORT – AUDITED (CONTINUED)

Reconciliation of options and ordinary shares held by Key Management Personnel (KMP) (Continued)

The fair value of the unlisted options granted during 2019 has been measured independently at the date of the grant
based upon the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The inputs used in the measurement of the fair value at grant date
are as follows. 

Grant date

31 January 2023

Options vest in three equal tranches as follows:

(cid:129) Tranche 1 – one third vest on 31 January 2020;
(cid:129) Tranche 2 – one third vest on 31 January 2021;
(cid:129) Tranche 3 – one third vest on 31 January 2022.

All options expire on the earlier of their expiry date or in the case of termination, as defined in the Option Incentive Plan.
On termination, in the event that a KMP is deemed to be a good leaver, then all unvested options will immediately vest.
In the event that a KMP is deemed to be a bad leaver, the options (whether vested or unvested) expire shortly thereafter.

The terms and conditions of each grant of options affecting remuneration in the current and future reporting periods are
set out below.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.         REPORTING ENTITY

           Rex Minerals Ltd (the ‘Company’) is a company domiciled in Australia. The address of the Company’s

registered office is Level 6, 1 Collins Street, Melbourne, Victoria 3000. These consolidated financial statements
comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the ‘Group’). The Group is a for profit entity
primarily involved in minerals exploration and evaluation in Australia.

2.         BASIS OF PREPARATION

(a)       Statement of compliance

           The consolidated financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in

accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards
Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001. The consolidated financial statements comply with International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

           These consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 12 September 2019.              

(b)       Basis of measurement

           The Group financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis.

The Group financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the continuity of
normal business activity and realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. 

The Group has no debt obligations. The Group recorded a loss of $5.111 million, and net cash outflows from
operating and investing activities of $4.594 million for the year ended 30 June 2019. The Group’s position as at
30 June 2019 included available cash reserves of $2.723 million; and current assets of $2.796 million which
exceed current liabilities of $0.926 million by $1.870 million.

The Group’s principal objective is to create value through the discovery and development of mineral resources and
as such, it does not presently have a source of operating income, rather it is reliant on equity raisings or funds
from other external sources to fund its activities.

To support its planned activities, the Group will be required to raise additional funds over the next 12 months and
in the future. The Group has a history of successfully raising cash through equity raisings, including $7.012 million
in June/July 2018. The Directors reasonably expect that the Group will be able to raise funds as required, the
Group also has unencumbered land with a book value $14.110 million which could be made available for sale
or used as security for additional funds, if necessary.

The Directors are therefore of the opinion that the going concern basis is appropriate in the circumstances.

(c)       Functional and presentation currency

           These Group financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the functional currency of all

entities in the Group. 

           The Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument

2016/191and in accordance with that Rounding Instrument, all financial information is presented in Australian
dollars and has been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise stated.

(d)       Use of estimates and judgements

           The preparation of financial statements requires Management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions

that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and
expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

           Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are

recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

           In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements in applying

accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amount recognised in the financial statements are
described in the following notes and their related accounting policies:

(e)       Changes in significant accounting policies

           The Group adopted AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and AASB 9 Financial Instruments

on 1 July 2018. Application of AASB 15 did not have a significant impact on the financial statements.

AASB 9 Financial Instruments

           As at 1 July 2018, the Group reassessed the classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities

based on the business model by which they are managed and their cash flow characteristics. 

           The following table explains the original categories under AASB 139 and the new categories under AASB 9

for each class of the Group’s financial assets and liabilities as at 1 July 2018. There was no impact on the
measurement of the Group’s financial assets and liabilities on transition to AASB 9.

Financial assets and liabilities Classification under AASB 9

Original classification under AASB 139

Cash and cash equivalents

Amortised cost loans and receivables Loans and receivables

Trade and other receivables

Amortised cost loans and receivables Loans and receivables

Trade and other payables

Amortised cost loans and receivables Loans and receivables

           AASB 9 replaces the ‘incurred loss’ model in AASB 139 with an ‘expected credit loss’ (ECL) model. The new
impairment model applies to financial assets measured at amortised cost and in the Group’s case this includes
other receivables and cash and cash equivalents. Application of the ECL model did not have a significant impact
on the financial statements

3.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these Group
financial statements, except if mentioned otherwise (see Note 2(e)) and have been applied consistently by Group
entities. The Group has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian
Accounting Standards Board that are relevant to the Group and effective for the current annual reporting period.

(a)

Basis of consolidation

(i)      Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when it 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 over the entity. In assessing control, potential voting rights that currently are exercisable
are taken into account. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the Group financial
statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

(ii)     Transactions eliminated on consolidation

Intra-group balances, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are
eliminated in preparing the Group financial statements.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(b)       Financial instruments

           Policy applicable from 1 July 2018

           All financial assets and liabilities are initially recognised at the fair value of consideration paid or received, net of

transaction costs as appropriate, and subsequently carried at fair value or amortised cost.

           Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless the Group changes its business
model for managing financial assets, in which case all affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of
the first reporting period following the change in the business model.

           A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions:

           (cid:129)

it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and

           (cid:129)

its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and
interest on the principal amount outstanding.

           (i)

Receivables – other debtors

Other debtors are measured at amortised cost less impairment losses. Other debtors are reviewed on an
ongoing basis for any indicators of impairment. An impairment loss is recognised for debts which are known
to be uncollectible. An impairment allowance is raised for any doubtful accounts.

           (ii) Cash and cash equivalents             

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits with an original maturity of three
months or less.

           (iii) Trade and other payables

Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods and services provided to the Group
prior to the end of the reporting period and are stated at amortised cost. The amounts are unsecured and are
usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

           Policy applicable before 1 July 2018

           (iv) Non-derivative financial instruments

Non-derivative financial instruments comprise investments in equity securities, trade and other receivables,
cash and cash equivalents and trade and other payables.

Non-derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value plus, for instruments not at fair
value through profit or loss, any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition,
non-derivative financial instruments are measured as described below. 

A financial instrument is recognised if the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the
instrument. Financial assets are derecognised if the Group’s contractual rights to the cash flows from the
financial assets expire or if the Group transfers the financial asset to another party without retaining control
or substantially all risks and rewards of the asset. Sales of financial assets are accounted for at trade date,
ie. the date that the Group commits itself to purchase or sell the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised
if the Group’s obligations specified in the contract expire or are discharged or cancelled.

           (v)

Share capital

Ordinary shares

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary
shares and share options are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

(c)

Property, plant and equipment

(i)      Recognition and measurement

Items of property, plant and equipment (PP&E) are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and
impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.

(ii)     Subsequent costs

The cost of replacing part of an item of PP&E is recognised in the carrying amount of the item if it is
probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Group and its cost can
be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. The costs of the day-to-day
servicing of PP&E are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

(iii)    Depreciation

Depreciation is recognised in the profit or loss for items of PP&E on a straight-line basis over the estimated
useful lives of each part of an item of PP&E.

The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:

(cid:129)
(cid:129)

Plant and equipment
Buildings

3 – 10 years
10 – 20 years

Land is not depreciated.

Water infrastructure will be depreciated over the life of the Hillside Project, upon commencement
of production.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and
adjusted if appropriate.

(d)

Exploration and evaluation expenditure

Exploration and evaluation expenditure, excluding the costs of acquisition, is expensed within the profit and
loss as incurred. 

Costs incurred in acquiring rights, the entry premiums paid to gain access to areas of interest and amounts payable
to third parties to acquire interests in existing projects are capitalised as incurred and assessed for impairment
triggers annually.

(e)

Impairment

(i)      Financial assets

         Policy applicable from 1 July 2018

The Group recognises loss allowances for ECLs on financial assets measured at amortised cost. Loss
allowances for other receivables are always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs.

         Policy applicable before 1 July 2018

A financial asset is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any objective evidence that
it is impaired. A financial asset is considered to be impaired if objective evidence indicates that one or more
events have had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset.

An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference
between its carrying amount, and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the
original effective interest rate.

Individually significant financial assets are tested for impairment on an individual basis. The remaining
financial assets are assessed collectively in groups that share similar credit risk characteristics.

All impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.

An impairment loss is reversed if the reversal can be related objectively to an event occurring after the
impairment loss was recognised. For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the reversal is recognised
in profit or loss.

(ii)     Non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine
whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable
amount is estimated.

The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair
value less costs to sell. 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. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped together
into the smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent
of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (the ‘cash-generating unit’). The goodwill acquired in
a business combination, for the purpose of impairment testing, is allocated to cash-generating units that
are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(ii)     Non-financial assets (Continued)

An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its
recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect
of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units
and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro rata basis.

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment losses
recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has
decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates
used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s
carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation
or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

(f)

Employee benefits

(i)      Wages, salaries and annual leave

Liabilities for employee benefits for wages, salaries and annual leave that are expected to be settled within
12 months of the reporting date represent obligations resulting from employee services provided to the
reporting date, and are calculated at undiscounted amounts based on remuneration, wage and salary rates
that the Company expects to pay as at reporting date including related on-costs such as workers
compensation insurance and payroll tax.

(ii)     Long-term benefits

The Group’s obligation in respect of long service leave is measured as the present value of the future benefit
expected to be paid to employees that has been earned in return for their service in the current and prior
periods. Consideration is given to the expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures
and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using Australian corporate bond rates.

(iii)    Share based payments

Equity-based compensation is recognised as an expense in respect of the services received.

The fair value of options granted is recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity.
The fair value is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which the participants
become unconditionally entitled to the options.

The fair value at grant date is independently determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that
takes into account the exercise price, the term of the options, the vesting and performance criteria, the impact
of dilution, the non-tradeable nature of the option, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility
of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option.

(h)

Tax

(i)      Income taxes

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognised in profit or loss
except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or
substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation
purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of
assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor
taxable profit, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that it is probable that they
will not reverse in the foreseeable future. In addition, deferred tax is not recognised for taxable temporary
differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are
expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been
enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is
a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by
the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current
tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities, will be realised simultaneously.

A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available
against which the temporary difference can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting
date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

Research and development benefits are recognised in the year the benefit is received.

Tax (Continued)

(ii)     Tax consolidation

The Company and its wholly-owned Australian resident entities are part of a tax consolidated group. As a
consequence, all members of the tax consolidated group are taxed as a single entity. The head entity within
the tax consolidated group is Rex Minerals Ltd. The tax consolidated group has entered into tax funding and
tax sharing agreements.

(iii)    Goods and services tax

Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST
incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as
part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable
from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) is included as a current asset or liability in the
balance sheet.

Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows
arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are
classified as operating cash flows.

(i)

Finance income

Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested. Interest income is recognised as it accrues in profit
or loss, using the effective interest method.

(j)

Earnings/loss per share

The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share data for its ordinary shares. Basic earnings per share is
calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company by the weighted
average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is determined by
adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary
shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.

(k)

Segment reporting

           The Group determines and presents operating segments based on the information that internally is provided to the

CEO, who is the consolidated entity’s chief operating decision-maker.

           An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in exploration activities which incurs expenses.
An operating segment’s expenditures are reviewed regularly by the CEO to make decisions about resources to be
allocated to the segment and to assess its performance.

           Segment expenditure that is reported to the CEO includes items directly attributable to a segment as well as those

that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.

           Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the period to acquire PP&E.

(l)        Restoration and rehabilitation provision

          Obligations to restore and rehabilitate certain areas of property may arise from time to time as a result of the

Group’s activities. A provision for rehabilitation and restoration is recognised in respect of the estimated cost of
rehabilitation, decommissioning and restoration of areas of disturbance existing at reporting date, but not yet
rehabilitated. Rehabilitation activities include dismantling infrastructure, removal and treatment of waste
material, and land rehabilitation, including recontouring, top-soiling and revegetation of the disturbed area.
Provisions for the cost of the rehabilitation program are recognised at the time that environmental disturbance
occurs (or is acquired).

           A corresponding asset is recognised in PP&E or exploration and evaluation assets only to the extent that it is

probable that future economic benefits associated with the rehabilitation, will flow to the entity. Determining the
cost of rehabilitation and restoration of the area of disturbance requires the use of significant estimates and
assumptions, including: the timing of the cash flows and expected life of the relevant area of interest, the
application of relevant environmental legislation, and the future expected costs of rehabilitation, decommissioning
and restoration. Changes in the estimates and assumptions used to determine the cost of rehabilitation,
decommissioning and restoration could have a material impact on the carrying value of the site restoration
provision and related asset. The provision is updated based on the facts and circumstances at the reporting date.

(m)      New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

           A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods

beginning after 1 July 2019, and have not been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements:

           (cid:129)

AASB 16 Leases removes the classification of leases as either operating or finance leases for the lessee,
effectively treating all leases on balance sheet. Short-term leases and leases of low value assets are exempt
from the lease accounting requirements. These amendments will be effective for the Group’s 2020 financial
statements with early adoption permitted. The new standard is not expected to have significant impact on the
financial statements.

4.         DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES

           A number of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair values for financial
assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the
following methods. Where applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values
is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.

(a)       Trade and other receivables

The fair value of trade and other receivables is estimated as the present value of future cash flows, discounted at
the market rate of interest at the reporting date.

(b)       Non-derivative financial liabilities

Fair value, which is determined for disclosure purposes, is calculated based on the present value of future principal
and interest cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date.

(c)       Share based payments

The fair value of options granted to participants as compensation is independently measured using a Black-
Scholes option pricing model. Measurement inputs include the exercise price of the options, the term of the
options, the vesting and performance criteria, the non-tradeable nature of the option, the share price at grant date
and expected price volatility of the underlying share (based on an evaluation of the Company’s historical
volatility), expected term of the instruments (based on historical experience and general option holder behaviour),
the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate (based on government bonds) for the term of the option.

5.         FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

(a)       Capital Management

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern,
so as to maintain an adequate capital base sufficient to maintain future exploration and progress of its projects.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may return capital to shareholders or issue new
shares. The Group’s focus has been to raise sufficient funds through equity to fund exploration and evaluation
activities, and currently has no external borrowings.

The Group encourages employees and contractors to be shareholders through the Option Incentive Plan.

There were no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management during the year. Risk management policies
and procedures are established with regular monitoring and reporting.

Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

(b)       Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counter-party to a financial instrument fails
to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Group’s receivables and cash balances.

(c)       Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due.
The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient
liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable
losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation. To this end, actual cash flows and forecast future cash flows
are reported to and monitored by the Board on a periodic basis.

(d)       Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices (such as foreign exchange rates), interest rates and equity
prices that will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of
market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while
optimising the return.

           (a) Basic loss per share

The calculation of basic loss per share at 30 June 2019 was based on the loss attributable to ordinary
equity holders of $5.111 million (2018: $5.157 million) and a weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding during the financial year ended 30 June 2019 of 284,493,544 (2018: 221,610,264).

           (b) Diluted loss per share 

The calculation of diluted loss per share at 30 June 2019 is the same as basic loss per share. In accordance
with AASB 133 Earnings per share, as potential ordinary shares may result in a situation where their
conversion results in a decrease in the loss per share, no dilutive effect has been taken into account.
Potential ordinary shares relating to the Option Incentive Plan totalled 15,824,017 at 30 June 2019.

18.       FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

           Exposure to credit risk and interest rate risks arise in the normal course of the Group’s business.

           (a)

Credit risk

Management monitors the exposure to credit risk on an ongoing basis through monitoring the Group’s
counterparties. The Group does not require collateral in respect of financial assets.

At reporting date, cash is held with a number of reputable financial institutions. The maximum exposure to
credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset in the balance sheet.

           (b)

Fair value

The financial assets and financial liabilities included in assets and liabilities approximate their net fair values.

           (c)

Liquidity risk

The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities.

                                                               Carrying           Contractual                 1 year                     1-2

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

18.       FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)

           (d)

Interest rate risk

The Group’s exposure to market interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s short-term deposits.

At balance date, the Group had the following financial assets exposed to interest rate risk:

                                                                                                                             2019                  2018
                                                                                                                             $000                  $000

Cash and cash equivalents                                                                                      2,723                 3,984

Total cash and cash equivalents                                                                             2,723                 3,984

At balance date, the Group has no financial liabilities exposed to variable interest rate risks. The following
sensitivity analysis is based on the interest rate risk exposure in existence at the balance sheet date.
At 30 June 2019, if interest rates had moved, as illustrated in the table below, with all other variables
constant, profit or loss and equity would have been affected as follows:

Profit or loss                                        Equity
higher/(lower)                                 higher/(lower)

                                                                         2019                  2018                  2019                  2018
                                                                         $000                  $000                  $000                  $000

Group                                                                                                                                                      
+1% (100 basis points)                                          27                      40                        –                         –
– 1% (100 basis points)                                       (27)                    (40)                        –                         –

The movements in profit or loss are due to higher/lower interest earnings on cash balances. The movements
in equity are directly linked to movements in the Consolidated statement of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income.

           (e)

Impairment losses

None of the Group’s receivables are past due (2018: nil).

19.       OPERATING LEASES

           At the end of the reporting period, the future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable operating leases are

payable as follows:

                                                                                                                                      2019                  2018
                                                                                                                                      $000                  $000

Not later than one year                                                                                                          –                    415
Later than one year but not later than five years                                                                     –                 1,749
Greater than five years                                                                                                           –                    268

           In 2019, the Group fully assigned its Adelaide leased office space and as a result no longer has any operating

lease commitments.

           During the year, an amount of $0.096 million was recognised as an expense in profit and loss in respect of the

office lease (2018: $0.432 million).

20.       EXPLORATION EXPENDITURE COMMITMENTS

           In order to maintain current rights of tenure to exploration tenements, the Group is required to perform minimum
exploration work to meet the minimum expenditure requirements under the various exploration licences which are
held. These obligations are expected to be fulfilled in the normal course of operations. Mining interests may be
relinquished or joint ventured to reduce this amount. The State Government has the authority to defer, waive or
amend the minimum expenditure requirements.

                                                                                                                                      2019                  2018

21.       CONTINGENCIES

           The Directors are of the opinion that there are no matters for which provision is required in relation to any

contingencies, as it is not probable that a future sacrifice of economic benefit will be required or the amount is not
capable of reliable measurement.

           The Group’s bankers have provided guarantees amounting to $0.020 million to certain government bodies as

security over the Group’s performance of rehabilitation obligations on certain tenements. Under the agreement, the
Group has indemnified the bank in relation to these guarantees. The guarantees are backed by deposits amounting
to $0.020 million as at 30 June 2019 (2018: $0.020 million).

           The Group’s bankers are no longer required to provide a guarantee regarding office operating leases as security
over the Group’s obligations regarding the leases held. The Group has been fully released from its obligations and
as such the guarantee has been cancelled and is no longer supported by a cash deposit (2018: $0.199 million).

How the matter was addressed in our audit

Our procedures included:
(cid:1) We analysed the cash flow projections by:

- Evaluating  the  underlying  data  used  to
generate  the  projections. We  specifically
looked  for
their consistency with  the
Group’s intentions, as outlined in Directors
minutes and  their comparability  to  past
practices;

- Assessing the planned levels of operating 
and capital expenditures for consistency of
relationships  and  trends  to  the  Group’s
historical results and our understanding of
