Review of Operations (continued)
Exploration (continued)
Marymia Gold Copper Project
Joint venture manager Norwest Minerals Limited (84.3%) have base metal intercepts in aircore drilling at Marymia
East. Previous drilling intersected near surface lead, zinc and nickel along a 1km strike near the Jenkins fault; a
well-known structure in the region known to host several base metal projects including the DeGrussa copper-gold
project ~75kms to the southwest.
Historical exploration drilling at Marymia East has been abundant and dense, particularly over the exposed
Baumgarten Greenstone Belts (BGB) with several moderate gold prospects identified (Figure 9). However, much
of the historical RAB drilling at Marymia East is very shallow and potentially ineffective as the drill holes may not
have penetrated the silcrete cap that is pervasive in areas of Proterozoic cover. Historical RAB holes drilled across
the BGB project area have an average depth of only 25m yet the silcrete has been logged by Norwest at depths
of up to 70 metres. Also, most RAB drill samples were only analysed for gold. As a result, many of the prospective
areas across the southern BGB remain prospective for base-metals or other commodities due to sampling above
the silcrete cap and testing only for gold.
Norwest is reviewing the entire Marymia East dataset with the aim of identifying drill targets for precious metals,
base metals, REE and lithium potential.
Corporate
Riedel raised a total of $1,110,000 during the year as follows:
• $60,000 at an issue price of $0.015 per share in September 2021, noting that the share application monies
were received and held in trust during the prior year (refer 7. At page 3);
• $710,000 at an issue price of $0.01 in February 2022; and
• $340,000 at $0.01 per share in April 2022.
The funds raised were predominantly used to undertake drilling programs at the Kingman Gold Project in Arizona.
10. Likely Developments and Expected Results of Operations
The results from recent drill programs are being reviewed and a decision on further exploration works will be
undertaken.
11. Environmental Regulation
The Group’s operations are not regulated by any significant environmental regulation under a law of the
Commonwealth or of a State or Territory.
The Flagstaff operations are regulated by the laws of Arizona.

-

- establish appropriate, demanding performance hurdles for variable executive remuneration.

Audited Remuneration Report (continued)
B. Remuneration governance; (continued)
Remuneration Committee
The Remuneration Committee, the role and duties of which are undertaken by the Board, establishes human
resources and compensation policies and practices for the Directors (executive and non-executive) and senior
executives, including retirement termination policies and practices, Company share schemes and other incentive
schemes, Company superannuation arrangements and remuneration arrangements.
C. Use of remuneration consultants
The Company has not engaged or contracted remuneration consultants during the financial year.
D. Non-Executive remuneration policy and framework
The remuneration policy of the Company has been designed to align director and executive objectives with
shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component which is assessed on an
annual basis in line with market rates and offering specific long-term incentives based on key performance areas
affecting the Group’s financial results. The Board of the Company believes the remuneration policy to be
appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best directors and executives to run and manage
the Group.
The Board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Board members and senior
executives of the Group is as follows:
The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the executive directors and other senior executives
(if any), was developed by the Board. All executives are to receive a base salary (which is based on factors such
as length of service and experience) and superannuation. The Board reviews executive packages as required by
reference to the Group’s performance, executive performance and comparable information from industry sectors
and other listed companies in similar industries.
The Board may exercise discretion in relation to approving incentives, bonuses and options. The policy is to attract
the highest calibre of executives and reward them for performance that results in long-term growth in shareholder
wealth.
The directors receive a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the government, which was 10.0% for
the year ended 30 June 2022, and do not receive any other retirement benefits. Note that effective 1 July 2022
the super guarantee rate has risen to 10.5% and will be effective from the 2023 financial year. All remuneration
paid to directors and executives is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed. Options are valued using
the Black-Scholes or Binomial Option Pricing models.
The Board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for comparable companies for time,
commitment and responsibilities. The Board determines payments to the non-executive directors and reviews
their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is
sought when required. The maximum aggregate fees that can be paid to non-executive directors is $250,000 per
annum. Amendments to this amount are subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting.
15
DIRECTORS’ REPORT
13
Audited Remuneration Report (continued)
D. Non-Executive remuneration policy and framework (continued)
Fees for non-executive directors will not be linked to the performance of the Group. However, to align directors’
interests with shareholder interests, the directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company and are able to
participate in the Employee Incentive Option Scheme.
The Board ensures that executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for good reward governance practices:
• Competitiveness
• Acceptability to shareholders
• Performance linkage
• Capital management
Directors’ fees
A director may be paid fees or other amounts as the directors determine where a director performs special duties
or otherwise performs services outside the scope of the ordinary duties of a director. A director may also be
reimbursed for out of pocket expenses incurred as a result of their directorship or any special duties.
Bonuses
No bonuses were given to key management personnel during the 2021 or 2022 financial years.
Performance based remuneration
The Company may offer eligible Directors and Key Executives participation in a Company Performance Rights
Plan and/or Incentive Option Scheme. This is in addition to cash remuneration.
Company performance, shareholder wealth and director’s and executive’s remuneration
The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase goal congruence between shareholders and directors and
executives. Currently, this is facilitated through the issue of options or Performance Rights to eligible directors
and executives to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests. The Company believes the
policy will be effective in increasing shareholder wealth. For details of directors and executives interests in options
and performance rights at year end, refer below for details.
All directors are entitled to participate in the Performance Rights Plan and/or Incentive Option Scheme.
E.
Voting and comments made at the Company’s 2021 Annual General Meeting
The Company received 100% of “Yes” votes on its remuneration report for the 2021 financial year (2020: 99.39%).

Forward Looking Statements
This release includes forward looking statements. Often, but not always, forward looking statements can
generally be identified by the use of forward looking words such as “may”, “will”, “expect”, “intend”, “plan”,
“estimate”, “anticipate”, “continue”, and “guidance”, or other similar words and may include, without limitation
statements regarding plans, strategies and objectives of management, anticipated production or construction
commencement dates and expected costs or production output.
Forward looking statements inherently involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that
may cause the company’s actual results, performance and achievements to differ materially from any future
results, performance or achievements. Relevant factors may include, but are not limited to, changes in
commodity prices, foreign exchange fluctuations and general economic conditions, increased costs and demand
for production inputs, the speculative nature of exploration and project development, including the risks of

forward looking statements are based will prove to be correct, or that the company’s business or operations will
not be affected in any material manner by these or other factors not foreseen or foreseeable by the company or
management or beyond the company’s control.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Year Ended 30 June 2022

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Riedel Resources Limited (the "Company") is a listed public company limited by shares, incorporated and
domiciled in Australia.
The consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended 30 June 2022 comprise the
Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group" and collectively as "Group entities").
The Group primarily is involved in mining and exploration activity.
(a) Basis of preparation
The accounting policies set out below have been consistently applied to all years presented.
(i)
Statement of Compliance
These general-purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting
Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') and the
Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. These financial statements also
comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting
Standards Board ('IASB').
The consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 6 September
2022.
(ii)
Historical cost convention
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for,
where applicable, the revaluation of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss,
investment properties, certain classes of property, plant and equipment and derivative financial instruments.
(iii) Parent entity information
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the Group
only. Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 27.
(iv) Going Concern
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates
continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal
course of business. As at 30 June 2022 the Group had net assets of $5,545,317 (2021: $5,216,165) and
reported a loss for the year of $725,091 (2021: $3,464,342) and had a net working capital of $1,338,193
(2021: $2,749,254).
Based on a cashflow forecast prepared by management, the ability of the Group to continue to pay its debts
as and when they fall due is dependent on the Company successfully raising additional share capital and
ultimately developing its mineral properties.
31
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Year Ended 30 June 2022
1.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(a) Basis of preparation (continued)
(iv) Going Concern (continued)
The directors believe it is appropriate to prepare these financial statements on a going concern basis
because:
-
-
The directors have appropriate plans to raise additional funds as and when required. In light of the
Group’s current exploration projects, the directors believe that the additional capital can be raised
in the market; and
The directors have an appropriate plan to contain certain operating and exploration expenditure if
required funding is not available.
These financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Group can meet its commitments as
and when they fall due and can therefore continue normal business activities, and the realisation of its
assets and settlement of its liabilities can occur in the ordinary course of business.
In the event that the Group is unable to satisfy future funding requirements, a material uncertainty would
arise that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern with the result
that the Group may be required to realise its assets at amounts different from those currently recognised,
settle liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business and make provisions for costs which may arise
as a result of cessation or curtailment of normal business operations.
(b) Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Riedel
Resources Limited ('Company' or 'parent entity') as at 30 June 2022 and the results of all subsidiaries for
the year then ended. Riedel Resources Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these
financial statements as the 'Group'.
Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the
Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability
to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully
consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the
date that control ceases.
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the Group
are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the
impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where
necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in
ownership interest, without the loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction, where the
difference between the consideration transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling
interest acquired is recognised directly in equity attributable to the parent.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(b) Principles of consolidation (continued)
Where the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets including goodwill, liabilities
and non-controlling interest in the subsidiary together with any cumulative translation differences
recognised in equity. The Group recognises the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value
of any investment retained together with any gain or loss in profit or loss.
(c) Operating segments
Operating segments are presented using the “management approach”, where the information presented is
on the same basis as the internal reports provided to the directors. The directors are responsible for the
allocation of resources to operating segments and assessing their performance.
(d)
Foreign currency translation
The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Riedel Resources Limited's functional
and presentation currency.
Foreign currency transactions
Foreign currency transactions are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates prevailing at
the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such
transactions and from the translation at financial year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss.
Foreign operations
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange
rates at the reporting date. The revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated into Australian
dollars using the average exchange rates, which approximate the rate at the date of the transaction, for the
period. All resulting foreign exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income through
the foreign currency reserve in equity.
The foreign currency reserve is recognised in profit or loss when the foreign operation or net investment is
disposed of.
(e) Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually
evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and
expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on
other various factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under
the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom equal the related actual
results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material
adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next
financial year are discussed below.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(e) Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (continued)
Share Based Payment Transactions
The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value
of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an
independent external valuation using Black-Scholes model, using the assumptions detailed in Note 13.
Exploration and Evaluation Costs
Exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of
interest. These costs are carried forward in respect of an area that has not at reporting date reached a
stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable
reserves, and active and significant operations in, or relating to, the area of interest are continuing.
Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic
Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has
had, or may have, on the consolidated entity based on known information. This consideration extends to
the nature of the products and services offered, customers, supply chain, staffing and geographic regions
in which the consolidated entity operates.
Impairment of Exploration and Evaluation Assets
The ultimate recoupment of the value of exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on the successful
development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively, sale, of the exploration and evaluation assets.
Impairment tests are carried out on a regular basis to identify whether the asset carrying values exceed
their recoverable amounts. There is significant estimation and judgement in determining the inputs and
assumptions used in determining the recoverable amounts.
The key areas of judgement and estimation include:
• Recent exploration and evaluation results and resource estimates;
•
•
Environmental issues that may impact on the underlying tenements; and
Fundamental economic factors that have an impact on the operations and carrying values of assets
and liabilities.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Income tax expenses
The charge for current income tax expense is based on the loss for the year adjusted for any non-
assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or are
substantially enacted by the reporting date.
Deferred tax is accounted for using the liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between
the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred
income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business
combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised
or liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive
income except where it relates to items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred
tax is adjusted directly against equity.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be
available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.
The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the
assumption that no adverse change will occur in income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the
Group will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with
the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law.
(g) Exploration and evaluation expenditure
Exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of
interest. These costs are carried forward only if they relate to an area of interest for which rights of tenure
are current and in respect of which:
•
•
such costs are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation or from
sale of the area; or
exploration and evaluation activities in the area have not, at reporting date, reached a stage which
permit a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves,
and active operations in, or relating to, the area are continuing.
Accumulated costs in respect of areas of interest which are abandoned are written off in full against loss in
the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made.
A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to
carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.
The recoverability of the carrying amount of the exploration and development assets is dependent on the
successful development and commercial exploitation or alternatively sale of the respective areas of interest.

Financial Instruments
Recognition, initial measurement and derecognition
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the financial instrument. Financial instruments (except for trade receivables) are measured initially
at fair value adjusted by transactions costs, except for those carried “at fair value through profit or loss”, in which
case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss. Where available, quoted prices in an active market are used
to determine the fair value. In other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted. Subsequent measurement
of financial assets and financial liabilities are described below.
Trade receivables are initially measured at the transaction price if the receivables do not contain a significant
financing component in accordance with AASB 15.
Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire,
or when the financial asset and all substantial risks and rewards are transferred. A financial liability is
derecognised when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expires.
Classification and subsequent measurement
Financial assets
Except for those trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component and are measured at the
transaction price in accordance with AASB 15, all financial assets are initially measured at fair value adjusted for
transaction costs (where applicable).
For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets other than those designated and effective as
hedging instruments, are classified into the following categories upon initial recognition:
• amortised cost;
•
•
fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI); and
fair value through profit or loss (FVPL).
Classifications are determined by both:
• The contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets; and
• The entities business model for managing the financial asset.
Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets are measured at amortised cost if the assets meet the following conditions (and are not
designated as FVPL):
•
•
they are held within a business model whose objective is to hold the financial assets and collect its
contractual cash flows; and
the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(h)
Financial Instruments (continued)
After initial recognition, these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is
omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Group’s cash and cash equivalents, trade and most
other receivables fall into this category of financial instruments.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (Equity instruments)
The Group measures debt instruments at fair value through OCI if both of the following conditions are met:
• The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely
payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding; and
• The financial asset is held within a business model with the objective of both holding to collect
contractual cash flows and selling the financial asset.
For debt instruments at fair value through OCI, interest income, foreign exchange revaluation and impairment
losses or reversals are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and computed in the same manner as for
financial assets measured at amortised cost. The remaining fair value changes are recognised in OCI.
Upon initial recognition, the Group can elect to classify irrevocably its equity investments as equity instruments
designated at fair value through OCI when they meet the definition of equity under AASB 132 Financial
Instruments: Presentation and are not held for trading.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL)
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading, financial assets
designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss, or financial assets mandatorily required to
be measured at fair value. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose
of selling or repurchasing in the near term.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss,
loans and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as
appropriate.
Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for transaction costs unless
the Group designated a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss. Subsequently, financial liabilities are
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method except for derivatives and financial liabilities
designated at FVPL, which are carried subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss.
All interest-related charges and, if applicable, gains and losses arising on changes in fair value are recognised in
profit or loss.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(h)
Fair value measurement
When an asset or liability, financial or non-financial, is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure
purposes, the fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date; and assumes that
the transaction will take place either: in the principle market; or in the absence of a principal market, in the
most advantageous market.
Fair value is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset
or liability, assuming they act in their economic best interest. For non-financial assets, the fair value
measurement is based on its highest and best use. Valuation techniques that are appropriate in the
circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, are used, maximising the
use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified, into three levels, using a fair value hierarchy that
reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. Classifications are reviewed each
reporting date and transfers between levels are determined based on a reassessment of the lowest level
input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
For recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements, external valuers may be used when internal
expertise is either not available or when the valuation is deemed to be significant. External valuers are
selected based on market knowledge and reputation. Where there is a significant change in fair value of an
asset or liability from one period to another, an analysis is undertaken, which includes a verification of the
major inputs applied in the latest valuation and a comparison, where applicable, with external sources of
data.
(i)
Current and non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current
classification.
An asset is current when: it is expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal
operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within twelve
months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being
exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. All other assets
are classified as non-current.
A liability is current when: it is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the
purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or there is no
unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

(j)
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly
liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, that are readily convertible to known
amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
(k) Revenue recognition
The Group recognises revenue as follows:
Revenue from contracts with customers
Revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group is expected to be
entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. For each contract with a customer,
the Group: identifies the contract with a customer; identifies the performance obligations in the contract;
determines the transaction price which takes into account estimates of variable consideration and the time
value of money; allocates the transaction price to the separate performance obligations on the basis of the
relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or service to be delivered; and recognises revenue
when or as each performance obligation is satisfied in a manner that depicts the transfer to the customer
of the goods or services promised.
Variable consideration within the transaction price, if any, reflects concessions provided to the customer
such as discounts, rebates and refunds, any potential bonuses receivable from the customer and any other
contingent events. Such estimates are determined using either the 'expected value' or 'most likely amount'
method. The measurement of variable consideration is subject to a constraining principle whereby revenue
will only be recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of
cumulative revenue recognised will not occur. The measurement constraint continues until the uncertainty
associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Amounts received that are subject to
the constraining principle are recognised as a refund liability.
Rendering of services
Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognised over time as the services are rendered based
on either a fixed price or an hourly rate.
Interest
Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of
calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period
using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts
through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.
Other revenue
Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established.
39
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(l)
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Goods and services tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of
GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is
recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables
and payables in the consolidated statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flow on a gross basis, except for the GST component of
investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
(m)
Impairment
Financial Assets
The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets which are either
measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. The measurement of the
loss allowance depends upon the Group's assessment at the end of each reporting period as to whether
the financial instrument's credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, based on
reasonable and supportable information that is available, without undue cost or effort to obtain.
Where there has not been a significant increase in exposure to credit risk since initial recognition, a 12-
month expected credit loss allowance is estimated. This represents a portion of the asset's lifetime expected
credit losses that is attributable to a default event that is possible within the next 12 months. Where a
financial asset has become credit impaired or where it is determined that credit risk has increased
significantly, the loss allowance is based on the asset's lifetime expected credit losses. The amount of
expected credit loss recognised is measured on the basis of the probability weighted present value of
anticipated cash shortfalls over the life of the instrument discounted at the original effective interest rate.
For financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, the loss allowance is
recognised within other comprehensive income. In all other cases, the loss allowance is recognised in profit
or loss.
Exploration and Evaluation Assets
Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment when facts and circumstances suggest that
the carrying amount of the asset may exceed its recoverable amount at the reporting date.
Exploration and evaluation assets are tested for impairment in respect of cash generating units, which are
no larger than the area of interest to which the assets relate.
Non-Financial Assets Other Than Exploration and Evaluation 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. For goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite lives or that are not yet
available for use, the recoverable amount is estimated at each reporting date.
40
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Year Ended 30 June 2022
1.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(n)
Impairment (continued)
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.
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 the income statement. Impairment losses
recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any
goodwill allocated to the units, then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit 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 exits. 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 has been recognised.
(o)
Joint operations
A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have
rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. The Group has recognised
its share of jointly held assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of joint operations. These have been
incorporated in the financial statements under the appropriate classifications.
(p)
Trade and other payables
Liabilities for trade creditors and other amounts are carried at cost which is the fair value of consideration
to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the Group. Due to their
short-term nature they are measured at amortised cost and are not discounted. The amounts are unsecured
and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
(q) Share based payment transactions
The Group provides benefits to employees (including Directors) of the Group in the form of share-based
payment transactions, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares
(“equity-settled transaction”).
The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value at
the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an independent external valuation using
Black-Scholes, an option valuation model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option,
the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the
expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option, together with non-vesting
conditions that do not determine whether the Group receives services that entitle the employees to receive
payment.
41
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Year Ended 30 June 2022
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(q) Share based payment transactions (continued)
The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over
the period in which the performance conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant
employees become fully entitled to the award (“vesting date”).
The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date
reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the number of awards that, in the
opinion of the Directors of the Company, will ultimately vest. This opinion is formed based on the best
available information at reporting date. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance
conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant
date.
No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is
conditional upon a market condition.
Where the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the
terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any increase in the value of the
transaction as a result of the modification, as measured at the date of modification.
Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and
any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is
substituted for the cancelled award and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted,
the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described
in the previous paragraph.
(r)
Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using
the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for
settlement within 30 days.
Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any provision for impairment.

Ordinary shares are classified as equity.
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a

The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at
each reporting date.
An item of property, plant and equipment is recognised upon disposal or when there is no future economic
benefit to the Group. Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are taken
to profit or loss.
(u) Employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and long service leave
expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in current liabilities in respect
of employees’ services up to the reporting date and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when
the liabilities are settled.
Other long-term employee benefits
The liability for annual leave and long service leave not expected to be settled within 12 months of the
reporting date are recognized in non-current liabilities, provided there is an unconditional right to defer
settlement of the liability. The liability is measured as the present value of expected future payments to be
made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit
method. Consideration is given to expect future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures
and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date
on national corporate bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the
estimated future cash outflows.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(u) Employee benefits (continued)
Defined contribution superannuation expense
Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed in the period in which they are
incurred.
(v)
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit/loss attributable to the owners of Riedel
Resources Limited, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted
average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in
ordinary shares issued during the financial year.
Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take
into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential
ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no
consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.
(w) Comparative figures
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in
presentation for the current financial year.
(x) New accounting standards and interpretations adopted by the Group
AASB 2021-3: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – COVID-19 Related Rent Concessions
beyond 30 June 2021
The Group has applied AASB 2021-3: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – COVID-19-
Related Rent Concessions beyond 30 June 2021 this reporting period.
The amendment amends AASB 16 to extend by one year, the application of the practical expedient added
to AASB 16 by AASB 2020-4: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – COVID-19-Related Rent
Concessions. The practical expedient permits lessees not to assess whether rent concessions that occur
as a direct consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic and meet specified conditions are lease modifications
and instead, to account for those rent concessions as if they were not lease modifications. The amendment
has not had a material impact on the Group’s financial statements.
AASB 2020-8: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Interest Rate Benchmark Reform –
Phase 2
The Group has applied AASB 2020-8 which amends various standards to help listed entities to provide
financial statement users with useful information about the effects of the interest rate benchmark reform on
those entities’ financial statements. As a result of these amendments, an entity:
•
will not have to derecognise or adjust the carrying amount of financial statements for changes
required by the reform, but will instead update the effective interest rate to reflect the change to the
alternative benchmark rate;

(y) New and Amended Accounting Policies Not Yet Adopted by the Group
AASB 2020-1: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Classification of Liabilities as Current or
Non-current
The amendment amends AASB 101 to clarify whether a liability should be presented as current or non-
current. The Group plans on adopting the amendment for the reporting period ending 30 June 2024. The
amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements once adopted.
AASB 2020-3: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Annual Improvements 2018-2020 and
Other Amendments
AASB 2020-3: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Annual Improvements 2018-2020 and
Other Amendments is an omnibus standard that amends AASB 1, AASB 3, AASB 9, AASB 116, AASB 137
and AASB 141. The Group plans on adopting the amendment for the reporting period ending 30 June 2023.
The impact of the initial application is not yet known.
AASB 2021-2: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosure of Accounting Policies and
Definition of Accounting Estimates
The amendment amends AASB 7, AASB 101, AASB 108, AASB 134 and AASB Practice Statement 2.
These amendments arise from the issuance by the IASB of the following International Financial Reporting
Standards: Disclosure of Accounting Policies (Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2) and
Definition of Accounting Estimates (Amendments to IAS 8).
The Group plans on adopting the amendment for the reporting period ending 30 June 2024. The impact of
the initial application is not yet known.
AASB 2021-5: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Deferred Tax related to Assets and
Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction
The amendment amends the initial recognition exemption in AASB 112: Income Taxes such that it is not
applicable to leases and decommissioning obligations – transactions for which companies recognise both
an asset and liability and that give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences. The Group
plans on adopting the amendment for the reporting period ending 30 June 2024. The impact of the initial
application is not yet known.

Segment reporting
The Company has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and
used by the chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the
segments and assess their performance.
Operating segments are identified by Management based on the mineral resource and exploration activities
in Australia, United States and Spain. Discrete financial information about each project is reported to the
chief operating decision maker on a regular basis.
The reportable segments are based on aggregated operating segments determined by the similarity of the
economic characteristics, the nature of the activities and the regulatory environment in which those
segments operate.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Year Ended 30 June 2022

Financial instruments
The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise cash and cash equivalents. The main purpose of
the financial instruments is to earn the maximum amount of interest at a low risk to the Group. The Group
also has other financial instruments such as trade and other debtors and trade and other creditors which
arise directly from its operations. For the period under review, it has been the Group’s policy not to trade
in financial instruments
The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk.
The board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below:
(i)
Interest Rate Risk
The Group is exposed to movements in market interest rates on cash and cash equivalents. The policy
is to monitor the interest rate yield curve out to 180 days to ensure a balance is maintained between the
liquidity of cash assets and the interest rate return. The Group does not have any other short or long term
debt, and therefore this risk is minimal.
(ii) Foreign exchange risk
The Group undertakes certain transactions in foreign currencies, hence exposure to exchange rate
fluctuations arise. Payments made by the Group are made at the prevailing exchange rate at the time of
payment. Loans advanced from the ultimate holding Company to subsidiary companies are denominated
in Australian dollars. The Group does not utilise derivative instruments to hedge the exchange rate risk.
(iii) Credit Risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial
loss to the Group. The Group has adopted the policy of only dealing with credit worthy counterparties
and obtaining sufficient collateral or other security where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of
financial loss from defaults.
The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any Group of
counterparties having similar characteristics. The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the
financial statements, net of any provisions for losses, represents the Group’s maximum exposure to credit
risk.

None of the Group’s other receivables are past due hence no impairment were provided for.
(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.
The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves by continuously monitoring forecast
and actual cash flows. The Group does not have any external borrowings.
The Company does anticipate a need to raise additional capital in the next 12 months to meet forecasted
operational and exploration activities.
The contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including estimated interest payments and excluding the
impact of netting agreements are shown (e) below.
(d)
Market risks
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and
equity prices 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.

Financial instruments (continued)
Interest rate risks
The Group is exposed to interest rate risk (primarily on its cash and cash equivalents), which is the risk
that a financial instrument's value will fluctuate as a result of changes in the market interest rates on
interest-bearing financial instruments. The Group does not use derivatives to mitigate these exposures.
The Group adopts a policy of ensuring that as far as possible it maintains excess cash and cash
equivalents at interest rates maturing over 30-180 day rolling periods.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF
RIEDEL RESOURCES LIMITED
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the consolidated financial report of Riedel Resources Limited (“the Company”) and its
subsidiaries (“the Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June
2022, 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 2022 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 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
Without modifying our audit opinion expressed above, attention is drawn to the following matter.
As referred in Note 1(a)(iv) to the consolidated financial statements, the consolidated financial statements
have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and meet its planned commitments is
dependent upon the Company being successful in raising funds through the issue of share capital.
Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation
Stantons Is a member of the Russell
Bedford International network of firms
In the event that the Company is not successful in raising further capital, a material uncertainty exists that
the Company may not be able to meet its liabilities as and when they fall due, and the realisable value of
the Company’s current and non-current assets may be significantly less than book values.
The financial statements do not include any adjustment relating to the recoverability or classification of
recorded asset amounts or to the amounts or classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should
the Company not be able to continue as a going concern.
Key Audit Matters
We have determined the matters described below to be key audit matters to be communicated in our
report.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our
audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit
of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate
opinion on these matters.
Key Audit Matters
How the matters were addressed in the audit
Restatement of prior year balances
The consolidated financial statements of the Group
for the year ended 30 June 2022 were audited by
our firm for the first time.
Inter alia, our audit procedures included the
following:
During the audit, we performed procedures to gain
an understanding of the nature of the Group’s
operations, including the associated processes
and risks, its internal control system and the
adopted accounting policies.
The procedures performed were aimed at
determining the appropriateness of the opening
balances of the consolidated financial statements
for the year ended 30 June 2022.
As disclosed in Note 28 to the consolidated
financial statements, the initial payments made
associated with the option to acquire shares in
Flagstaff Minerals (US) Inc. during the financial
year ended 30 June 2021 of $1,806,956 were
accounted for as “Prepaid acquisition costs” under
Note 8 Financial Assets in the prior year’s

On the basis of the significance of the amount
noted above, we have considered the restatement
noted above to be a key audit matter.
Carrying Value of Exploration and Evaluation
Assets
As at 30 June 2022, the carrying value of the
Group’s Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure
totalled $4,207,124, as disclosed in Note 8 to the
consolidated financial statements.
The carrying value of the Exploration and
Evaluation Assets is a key audit matter due to:
• The significance of the total balance (75%
of total assets);
• The necessity to assess management’s
application of the requirements of the
AASB 6, considering any indicators of
impairment that may be present; and
• The assessment of significant judgements
made by management in relation to the
Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure.

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 2022 but does not include the financial
report and our 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 has 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.
As part of an audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement
and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. An audit involves performing procedures to
obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report.
The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of
material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk
assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation of the financial
report that gives a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal
control.
The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from
error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of
internal control.
An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness
of accounting estimates made by the Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the
financial report.
We conclude on the appropriateness of the Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and,
based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions
that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that
a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related
disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our
conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However,
future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
We evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the
disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a
manner that achieves fair presentation.
We obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or
business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for
the direction, supervision and performance of the audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with the Directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the
audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in Internal control that we identify
during our audit.
The Auditing Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit
engagements. We also provide the Directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters
that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the Directors, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the consolidated financial report of the current period and are therefore key
audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public
disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should
not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be
expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
