DIRECTORS’ REPORT
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Botswanan Project
The Group is the holder of tenement licences covering approximately 1,500km2 of terrain prospective for both base metals
and precious metals as well as lithium and tantalum.
Acquisition opportunities
The Group has continued to identify and assess potential value accretive acquisitions in the resources sector, particularly in
the gold and base metals sectors.
BCL Limited liquidation
In April 2014, the Group entered into a farm-in and joint venture agreement with BCL Limited and its subsidiary BCL
Investments (Pty) Ltd (jointly referred to as “BCL”). Under the terms of the agreement, BCL was required to spend A$4 million
on exploration expenditure to earn a 40% equity interest in three tenements (~185km2). BCL had the option to continue
funding the project to a Bankable Feasibility Study in order to earn an additional 30%. By July 2016, BCL had earned the initial
40% equity, subject to the completion of formalities. In October 2016, BCL was placed into liquidation and all work on the JV
assets ceased. The Ministry of Minerals Resources, Green Technology and Energy Security has subsequently suspended (put
on hold) the renewal date of the three Prospecting Licences but this decision does not affect the Group’s right to continue
exploring these licences. The liquidation process is ongoing to date and the Group is closely monitoring progress.
LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Six Sigma Metals Limited has entered into a binding and exclusive heads of agreement (Heads of Agreement) with DiscovEx
Resources Limited (ASX: DCX) whereby DCX has granted Si6 with an option (Option) to acquire a 100% interest in the
Monument Gold Project (MGP or the Project) in Western Australia via acquisition of Monument Exploration Pty Ltd.

appointed to Chairman. On 15 April 2020 Mr Eddie King resigned from the board.

Company successfully raised $0.5 million via a share placement at $0.004 which was approved at the Company’s General
meeting on 15 August 2019 and issued 16 August 2019. The capital raise was completed with a further $0.25 million via the

whereby DCX has granted SI6 with an option to acquire a 100% interest in the Monument Gold Project in Western Australia
via an acquisition of Monument Exploration Pty Ltd.
The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve at the date of this report. The Company is therefore uncertain
as to the full impact that the pandemic will have on its financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations during
2020. Management is actively monitoring the global situation and its impact on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity,
operations, suppliers, industry, and workforce. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak and the global responses
to curb its spread, the Company is not able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on its results of operations,
financial condition, or liquidity for the 2021 financial year. Although the Company cannot estimate the length or gravity of
the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak at this time, if the pandemic continues, it may have a material adverse effect on the
Company’s results of future operations, financial position, and liquidity in fiscal year 2021.
Other than the matters discussed above, there has not arisen in the interval between the end of the financial year and the
date of this report, any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the Directors of the
Company to affect the operations of the Group, the results of these operations or the state of affairs of the Group in
subsequent years.
Future Developments
Six Sigma Metals Limited has entered into a binding and exclusive heads of agreement (Heads of Agreement) with DiscovEx
Resources Limited (ASX: DCX) whereby DCX has granted Si6 with an option (Option) to acquire a 100% interest in the
Monument Gold Project (MGP or the Project) in Western Australia via acquisition of Monument Exploration Pty Ltd.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)
Remuneration Policy
KMP have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Group. KMP of the Group
comprise of the Board of Directors.
The Group’s broad remuneration policy is to ensure the remuneration package properly reflects the person’s duties and
responsibilities and that remuneration is competitive in attracting, retaining and motivating people of the highest quality.
No remuneration consultants were employed during the financial year.
Voting and comments made at the Company's Annual General Meeting
At the 2019 Annual General Meeting, the resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report for the year ended 30 June 2019 was
passed without amendment by 96.91% of the vote on the resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report.
The Company did not receive any specific feedback at the Annual General Meeting regarding its remuneration practices.
Remuneration Governance, Structure and Approvals
Remuneration of Directors is currently set by the Board of Directors. The Board has not established a separate Remuneration
Committee at this point in the Group’s development, nor has the Board engaged the services of an external remuneration
consultant. It is considered that the size of the Board along with the level of activity of the Group renders this impractical. The
Board is primarily responsible for:
The over-arching executive remuneration framework;
•
• Operation of the incentive plans which apply to executive directors and senior executives, including key performance
indicators and performance hurdles;
• Remuneration levels of executives; and
• Non-Executive Director fees.
Their objective is to ensure that remuneration policies and structures are fair and competitive and aligned with the long-term
interests of the Company.
Non-Executive Remuneration Structure
The remuneration of Non-Executive Directors consists of Directors’ fees, payable in arrears. The total aggregate fixed sum per
annum to be paid to Non-Executive Directors in accordance with the Company’s Constitution shall be no more than A$250,000
and may be varied by ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in a General Meeting.
Remuneration of Non-Executive Directors is based on fees approved by the Board of Directors and is set at levels to reflect
market conditions and encourage the continued services of the Directors. The chair’s fees are determined independently to
the fees of the Non-Executive Director’s based on comparative roles in the external market. In accordance with the Company’s
Constitution, the Directors may at any time, subject to the Listing Rules, adopt any scheme or plan which they consider to be
in the interests of the Company and which is designed to provide superannuation benefits for both present and future Non-
Executive Directors, and they may from time to time vary this scheme or plan.
The remuneration of Non-Executive Directors is detailed in KMP Remuneration table and their contractual arrangements are
disclosed below.
Remuneration may also include an invitation to participate in share-based incentive programmes in accordance with Company
policy.
The nature and amount of remuneration is collectively considered by the Board of Directors with reference to relevant
employment conditions and fees commensurate to a company of similar size and level of activity, with the overall objective of
ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of high performing Directors.

Relationship between Remuneration and Company Performance
Given the current phase of the Company’s development, the Board does not consider earnings during the current and previous
financial year when determining, and in relation to, the nature and amount of remuneration of KMP.
Executive Remuneration
The pay and reward framework for key management personnel may consist of the following areas:
a) Fixed Remuneration – base salary
b) Variable Short-Term Incentives
c) Variable Long-Term Incentives
The combination of these would comprise the key management personnel’s total remuneration.
a)
Fixed Remuneration – Base Salary
The fixed remuneration for each senior executive is influenced by the nature and responsibilities of each role and
knowledge, skills and experience required for each position. Fixed remuneration provides a base level of remuneration
which is market competitive and comprises a base salary inclusive of statutory superannuation. It is structured as a total
employment cost package.
Key management personnel are offered a competitive base salary that comprises the fixed component of pay and
rewards. External remuneration consultants may provide analysis and advice to ensure base pay is set to reflect the
market for a comparable role. No external advice was taken this year. Base salary for key management personnel is
reviewed annually to ensure the executives’ pay is competitive with the market. The pay of key management personnel
is also reviewed on promotion. There is no guaranteed pay increase included in any key management personnel’s
contract.
Variable Remuneration – Short -Term Incentives (STI)
Discretionary cash bonuses may be paid to senior executives annually, subject to the requisite Board and shareholder
approvals where applicable. No bonus payments were made during the financial year.
Variable Remuneration – Long-Term Incentives (LTI)
Options are issued at the Board’s discretion. Other than options disclosed in the Remuneration Report there have been
no options issued to employees at the date of this financial report.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a)
Reporting Entity
Six Sigma Metals Limited (referred to as “Company” or “parent entity”) is a company domiciled in Australia. The address
of the Company’s registered office and principal place of business is disclosed in the Corporate Directory of the Annual
Report. The consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended 30 June 2020 comprise the
Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Consolidated Entity” or the “Group”).
(b)
Basis of Preparation
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').
Basis of measurement
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with the historical
cost convention, unless otherwise stated.
Parent entity information
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the consolidated entity
only. Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in Note 19.
Basis of preparation and changes to the Group’s accounting policies
The consolidated entity has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and interpretations issued by
the Australian Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB”) that are mandatory for the current reporting period.
Details of the impact of AASB 16 Leases and IFRIC Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments have had are detailed
below. Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not
been early adopted by the consolidated entity.
AASB 16 – Leases
The Consolidated entity has adopted AASB 16 from 1 July 2019 using the retrospective modified approach and as
such the comparatives have not been restated. The impact of adoption is not material to the financial statements.
IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments
IFRIC 23 provides guidance on the accounting for current and deferred tax liabilities and assets in circumstances in
which there is uncertainty over income tax treatments.
The Consolidated entity has adopted IFRIC 23 from 1 July 2019. The impact of adoption is not material to the financial
statements.
Significant Judgements and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires
management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving
a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial
statements are disclosed in Note 2.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(c) Principles of Consolidation
Subsidiaries
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Six Sigma Metals Limited
(‘Company’ or ‘parent entity’) as at 30 June 2020 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Six Sigma
Metals Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in this financial report as the consolidated entity.
Subsidiaries are all entities (including special purpose entities) over which the consolidated entity has the power to
govern the financial and operating policies, generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one-half of the voting
rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered
when assessing whether the consolidated entity controls another entity.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the consolidated entity. They are
de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between consolidated entity companies are
eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the
asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with
the policies adopted by the consolidated entity.
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the consolidated entity.
(d) Segment Reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating
decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing
performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board.
(e) Foreign Currency Translation
Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the consolidated entity’s entities are measured using the currency
of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (“functional currency”). The consolidated financial
statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Six Sigma Metals Limited’s functional and presentation currency.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the
dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and
from the translation at year end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are
recognised in profit or loss.
20
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(e) Foreign Currency Translation (continued)
Consolidated entity companies
The results and financial position of foreign operations (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy)
that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency
as follows:
• Assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position account presented are translated at the closing rate at
•
the date of that statement of financial position;
Income and expenses for each statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income account are translated
at average exchange rates (unless this is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates
prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the
transactions); and
• All resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income and included in the foreign
currency translation reserve in the statement of financial position.
On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of any net investment in foreign entities, and of
borrowings and other financial instruments designated as hedges of such investments, are recognised in other
comprehensive income. When a foreign operation is sold or any borrowings forming part of the net investment are
repaid, the associated exchange differences are reclassified to profit or loss, as part of the gain or loss on sale.
(f) Revenue Recognition and other Income
The consolidated entity recognises revenue and other income as follows:
Revenue from contracts with customers
Revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the consolidated entity is expected to be
entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. For each contract with a customer, the
consolidated entity: 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 initially recognised as deferred revenue in
the form of a separate refund liability.
Interest
Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method.
Other income
Other income is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established.
21
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(g)
Income Tax
The income tax expense or revenue for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on
the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable
to temporary differences and to unused tax losses.
Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax
bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, deferred
tax liabilities are not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred income tax is also not
accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination
that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is
determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting
period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax
liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that
future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax
bases of investments in foreign operations where the Company is able to control the timing of the reversal of the
temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and
liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities
are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to
realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other
comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or
directly in equity, respectively.
(i) Exploration and evaluation expenditure
The Group expenses exploration and evaluation expenditure as incurred in respect of each identifiable area of
interest until a time where an asset is in development.
Exploration and Evaluation expenditure
Exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources is the search for mineral resources after the entity has obtained
legal rights to explore in a specific area as well as the determination of the technical feasibility and commercial
viability of extracting mineral resource. Exploration and evaluation expenditure are expensed to the profit or loss as
incurred except when existence of a commercially viable mineral reserves has been established and it is anticipated
that future economic are more likely than not to be generated as a result of the expenditure.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(j) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash on hand and in bank and short-term deposits are stated at nominal value. For the purpose of the statement of
cash flows, cash includes cash on hand and in bank, and bank securities readily convertible to cash, net of outstanding
bank overdrafts.
(k) Trade and Other Receivables
Trade and other receivables include amounts due from customers for goods sold and services performed in the
ordinary course of business. Receivables expected to be collected within 12 months of the end of the reporting period
are classified as current assets. All other receivables are classified as non-current assets.
Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any allowance for expected credit losses (ECL). The ECL is
based on either the 12-month or lifetime ECL. The 12-month ECL is the portion of lifetime ECLs that results from
default events on a financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date. When there has
been a significant increase in credit risk since origination, the allowance will be based on the lifetime ECL.
(l)
Investments and other financial assets
Investments and other financial assets are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs are included as part of the
initial measurement, except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Such assets are subsequently
measured at either amortised cost or fair value depending on their classification. Classification is determined based on
both the business model within which such assets are held and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial
asset, unless an accounting mismatch is being avoided.
Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows have expired or have been transferred and the
consolidated entity has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. When there is no reasonable
expectation of recovering part or all of a financial asset, it's carrying value is written off.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets not measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income are classified as
financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Typically, such financial assets will be either:
(i) held for trading, where they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the short-term with an intention of making a
profit, or a derivative; or
(ii) designated as such upon initial recognition where permitted. Fair value movements are recognised in profit or loss.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income include equity investments which the consolidated
entity intends to hold for the foreseeable future and has irrevocably elected to classify them as such upon initial
recognition.
Impairment of financial assets
The consolidated entity 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 consolidated entity'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.
23
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(k) Investments and other financial assets (continued)
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.
(m) Impairment of Assets
Assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment. Assets
that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's
carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs
to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which
there are separately identifiable cash flows. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of
the asset, other than goodwill, is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent
the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no
impairment loss been recognised in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or
loss.
(n) Trade and Other Payables
Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods and services received whether or not billed to
the Group. Trade payables are usually settled within 30 days of recognition.
(o) 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 recognised 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 the expected
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 government bonds with terms to maturity and
currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(p) Share-based Payments
Equity-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to Key Management Personnel and employees.
Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, or options over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange
for the rendering of services.
The cost of equity-settled transactions are measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined
using an appropriate 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 consolidated entity receives the services that entitle the employees to receive payment. No account is
taken of any other vesting conditions.
The cost of equity-settled transactions are recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the
vesting period. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award, the
best estimate of the number of awards that are likely to vest and the expired portion of the vesting period. The amount
recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts
already recognised in previous periods.
Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore, any awards subject to market
conditions are considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition has been met, provided all other
conditions are satisfied.
If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not been made.
An additional expense is recognised, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification that increases the total
fair value of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification.
If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the consolidated entity or employee, the failure to satisfy the
condition is treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the consolidated entity or employee
and is not satisfied during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining
vesting period, unless the award is forfeited.
If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any remaining
expense is recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled award, the cancelled
and new award is treated as if they were a modification.
(p)
Contributed equity
Ordinary shares are classified as equity.
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of
tax, from the proceeds.
If the entity reacquires its own equity instruments, for example as a result of a share buy-back, those instruments are
deducted from equity and the associated shares are cancelled. No gain or loss is recognised in the profit or loss and
the consideration paid including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is recognised directly
in equity.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(q) Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing:
The profit attributable to owners of the Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares
•
• By the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus
elements in ordinary shares issued during the year and excluding treasury shares.
Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjust the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account:
•
•
The after-income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares,
and
The weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the
conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
(r) Goods and Services Tax (“GST”)
Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not
recoverable from the taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as
part of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST
recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as a current asset or liability in the statement of
financial position.
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing
activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority are presented as operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax
authorities.
(s) 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 classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the
consolidated entity's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised
within 12 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 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as
non-current.
A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the consolidated entity's normal operating
cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period;
or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current.

(t) Dividends
Dividends are recognised when declared during the financial year and are no longer at the discretion of the Company.
NOTE 2
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS 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 within the next financial year are discussed below.
Share based payments
The consolidated entity measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with service providers by reference to the fair
value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using an appropriate
valuation model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. The accounting
estimates and assumptions relating to equity-settled share-based payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts

The figures above are extracted from the Prospecting licences issued to African Metals (Pty) Ltd by the Department of Mines
in Botswana. Expenditures are required to maintain the right of tenure to exploration until the expiry of the licences. These
obligations are subject to renegotiation upon expiry of the tenements and are not provided for in the financial statements.
The Group anticipates future expenditure on its current rights of tenure to exploration and mining tenements up until the
expiry of its current Prospecting licences and on tenement renewals and extensions that have been applied for but not yet
granted, which are included in the above table. In the event the Group does not meet the minimum exploration expenditure
the licences may be cancelled or not renewed.
NOTE 16 CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
Magogaphate Tenement
Although the Group acquired a 100% interest in the Magogaphate group of tenements in Botswana from A-Cap Resources
Limited in 2007, Mineral Holdings Botswana (Pty) Ltd (“MHB”) has retained a right to a 5% net profits share. The Group
therefore, has a contingent liability to MHB should it establish a profitable mining operation on those tenements. The 5%
net profits share interest is limited to the three tenements subject to joint venture with BCL, namely PL 110/94, PL 111/94
and PL 54/98. A profitable mining operation has not yet been established and accordingly there have been no payments to
MHB.

NOTE 18 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Group’s financial instruments consist mainly of deposits with banks and accounts receivable and payable.
Treasury Risk Management
The Board of Directors meets on a regular basis to analyse financial risk exposure and to evaluate treasury management
strategies in the context of the most recent economic conditions and forecasts. The Board’s overall risk management
strategy seeks to assist the Group in meeting its financial targets, whilst minimising potential adverse effects on financial
performance.
Financial Risk Exposures and Management
The main risk the group is exposed to through its financial instruments is liquidity risk.
35
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
NOTE 18 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the group might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or otherwise meeting its
obligations related to financial liabilities. The group manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows and only
investing surplus cash with major financial institutions.

Interest rate risk
The Group is exposed to interest rate risk, 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’s exposure to this risk relates
primarily to the Group’s cash and any cash on deposit. The Group does not use derivatives to mitigate these exposures.
The Group manages its exposure to interest rate risk by holding certain amounts of cash in fixed and floating interest rate
facilities. At the reporting date, the interest rate profile of the Group’s interest-bearing financial instruments was:

Sensitivity
Within the analysis, consideration is given to potential renewals of existing positions and the mix of fixed and variable
interest rates. The following sensitivity analysis is based on the interest rate risk exposures in existence at the reporting
date. The 1% increase and 1% decrease in rates is based on reasonably expected possible changes over a financial year,
using the observed range of historical rates for the preceding five-year period.

At 30 June 2020, if interest rates had moved, as illustrated in the table below, with all other variables held constant,
post-tax losses and equity would have been affected as follows:

Credit risk
Credit risk arises from the financial assets of the Company, which comprise cash and cash equivalents and trade and other
receivables. The Company’s exposure to credit risk arises from potential default of the counterparty, with maximum exposure
equal to the carrying amount of the financial assets.
The Company’s policy is to trade only with recognised, creditworthy third parties. It is the Company’s policy that all customers
who wish to trade on credit terms will be subject to credit verification procedures.
In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Company’s exposure to bad debts
is not significant. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Company except for cash and cash
equivalents. ECS cash accounts are held with both Westpac and Commonwealth bank, their credit rating is AA- and Ba2
respectively by S&P Global and Moody’s.
Foreign Currency Risk
The Group undertakes certain transactions denominated in foreign currency and is exposed to foreign currency risk
through foreign exchange rate fluctuations. The Group also has exposure to foreign exchange risk due to the currency cash
reserves and other balances denominated in foreign currencies. The Group does not actively manage foreign currency risk
and does not make use of derivative financial instruments.
The following sensitivity is based on the foreign currency risk exposures in existence at the reporting date.
At 30 June 2020, had the Australian Dollar/Botswana Pula exchange rate moved, as illustrated in the table below with all
other variables held constant, post-tax profit would have been affected as shown.

NOTE 18 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)
Management believes the reporting date risk exposures are representative of the risk exposure inherent in the financial
instruments.
The net fair values of financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying values due to their short-term nature.
Capital Risk Management
The Group manages its capital to ensure that Companies in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern while
maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt to equity balance. The Group’s focus has been to
raise sufficient funds through equity to fund exploration and resource development activities.
The Group’s overall strategy remains unchanged from 2019. Risk management policies and procedures are established with
regular monitoring and reporting.
The capital structure of the Group consists of cash and cash equivalents and equity attributable to equity holders of the parent,
comprising of issued capital, reserves and accumulated losses as disclosed in Notes 10 and 11 respectively.
The Group operates in Australia and Botswana. None of the Group’s companies are subject to externally imposed capital
requirements.

Guarantees, contingent liabilities and contractual commitments
The subsidiary company has expenditure commitments to maintain its current rights of tenure to exploration and mining
tenements up until the expiry of the leases including its joint venture commitments. These obligations are subject to
renegotiation upon expiry of the leases and are not provided for in the financial statements. The parent entity may provide
funds to ensure the subsidiary company can fulfil these commitments as well as any other operating commitments.
NOTE 20 EVENTS AFTER THE END OF THE REPORTING PERIOD
On 14 July 2020 the Company raised $960,000 before costs through the issue of 160,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares at
$0.006 per share.
On 18 August 2020, the Company raised $1,440,000 before costs through the issue of 240,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares
at $0.006 per share.
On 25 August 2020, SI6 entered into a binding and exclusive heads of agreement with DiscoverEx Resources Limited (ASX:DCX),
whereby DCX has granted SI6 with an option to acquire a 100% interest in the Monument Gold Project in Western Australia
via an acquisition of Monument Exploration Pty Ltd.
The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve at the date of this report. The Company is therefore uncertain
as to the full impact that the pandemic will have on its financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations during
2020. Management is actively monitoring the global situation and its impact on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity,
operations, suppliers, industry, and workforce. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak and the global responses
to curb its spread, the Company is not able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on its results of operations,
financial condition, or liquidity for the 2021 financial year. Although the Company cannot estimate the length or gravity of
the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak at this time, if the pandemic continues, it may have a material adverse effect on the
Company’s results of future operations, financial position, and liquidity in fiscal year 2021.
Other than the matters discussed above, there has not arisen in the interval between the end of the financial year and the
date of this report, any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the Directors of the
Company to affect the operations of the Group, the results of these operations or the state of affairs of the Group in
subsequent years.

to the financial report, including a summary of significant accounting policies and the directors’
declaration.
In our opinion the accompanying financial report of the Group, is in accordance with the Corporations
Act 2001, including:
(i)
Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2020 and of its
financial performance for the year ended on that date; 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 Corporations
Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s
APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code)
that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other
ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been
given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the
time of this auditor’s report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our opinion.
Key audit matters
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. We have determined there are no key audit
matters to be communicated in our report.

Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2020, but does not include the
financial report and the auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and 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.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the
Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website (http://www.auasb.gov.au/Home.aspx) at:
