CHAIRMAN’S LETTER 

Dear Fellow Shareholders, 

Welcome to the 2021 Annual Report for Si6 Metals Limited (ASX: Si6). 

We have spent the last year diversifying our business by pursuing an Australian asset, the Monument Gold Project (Monument 
Gold),  which  now sits  alongside  our assets in  Botswana,  the  Maibele Base Metals  Project (Maibele).  Both  projects  contain 
Mineral  Resources  and  are  surrounded  by  areas  of  significant  resource  endowment.  They  boast  excellent  access,  nearby 
infrastructure (e.g. sealed roads, power, water and telecommunications), adjacent mines and corporate appeal. We have been 
actively working on advancing prospects at each of these projects.  

Since entering into a Heads of Agreement to acquire 100% of Monument Gold in August 2020, we have undertaken a drill 
program on the Korong and Waihi prospects along the banded iron formations. The results from this drilling, combined with 
historical data, has resulted in the definition of a new Mineral Resource Estimate of circa 154koz of gold. In other regional 
areas  prospective  for  syenite  intrusives  and  where  historical  exploration  is  limited,  maiden  drilling  will  target  high  level 
intrusives prospective for bulk tonnage gold mineralisation analogous to the Wallaby (~7Moz Au) and Jupiter (~1.5Moz Au) 
gold deposits that occur within a similar setting elsewhere in the Laverton Tectonic Zone.  

Contemporaneously, we continued work on Maibele in Botswana undertaking multi-faceted exploration campaigns employing 
a variety of ground geophysical techniques. Programs were designed to target deeper mineralisation for follow-up drill testing. 
The  results  achieved  from  work  carried  out  over  the  Airstrip,  Dibete  and  Maibele  prospects  demonstrate  that  multiple 
significant anomalies are present. 

Mid-year, Si6 completed diamond hole MADD00153 to a depth of approximately 550 metres.  The hole was designed to test 
for the continuation of nickel sulphide mineralisation previously intersected in historic hole MARD0094. The hole was drilled 
approximately  50  metres  to  the  northeast and designed  to  test the  mineralised  horizon  at about the  same  vertical depth. 
MARD0094 and MADD0153 nickel sulphide intersections are located some 200 vertical metres below the bottom of the current 
resource and demonstrate the significant potential for further discovery at depth. Mineralisation remains open to the east, 
west and at depth. 

COVID-19 has caused delays in conducting work programs and securing technical contractors, particularly in Botswana and 
various  restrictions  and  lockdown  measures  have  presented  challenges.  However,  we  are  pleased  to  have  made  excellent 
progress on our programs despite these challenges. 

In July/August 2020, Si6 completed a placement and share purchase plan for $2.4 million to fund continued exploration in 
Botswana, assess new gold and base metal opportunities and for working capital purposes. In December 2020, Si6 completed 
a placement for $2 million to fund further drilling in Botswana, drilling in Western Australia and for working capital purposes.  

Your Board will continue to seek to add shareholder value through active exploration, project acquisitions or strategic alliances. 
We look forward to an exciting year ahead as we progress both of our projects and I look forward to keeping you updated on 
our progress. 

Kind Regards 

Patrick Holywell 
Executive Chairman

DIRECTORS’ REPORT 

The Directors present their report on the consolidated entity consisting of  Si6 Metals Limited (formerly known as Six Sigma 
Metals Limited) and its controlled entity (“the Group”) for the year ended 30 June 2021. Directors held office for this entire 
period unless otherwise stated. 

DIRECTORS 

The following persons were Directors of the Company during the whole of the financial year and up to the date of this Report 
unless otherwise stated: 

Mr Patrick Holywell (appointed 25 November 2019) 

Mr Steven Groves (appointed 22 February 2017) 

Mr Joshua Letcher (appointed 21 August 2017) 

COMPANY SECRETARY 

Mr Mauro Piccini  

Mr  Piccini  is  a  Chartered  Accountant  (CA)  and  a  member  of  the  Governance  Institute  of  Australia  (GIA).  He  specialises  in 
corporate advisory, company secretarial and financial management services. Mauro spent 7 years at the ASX and possesses 
core competencies in publicly listed and unlisted company secretarial, administration and governance disciplines.  

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES 

The Group’s principal activities during the year are unchanged from prior years being exploration for various commodities in 
various jurisdictions. To date, that focus has been in the Limpopo belt on the eastern side of Botswana focused on base metals 
and precious metals targets and in particular nickel, copper and PGEs. Earlier in the year, the Group entered into an option 
agreement to acquire the Monument Gold Project in Western Australia. The Project lies in the world class Laverton Tectonic 
Zone, which to date has produced more than 30 million ounces of gold and yielded some of Australia’s best-known gold mines. 
The  Group  has  also  assessed  a  number  of  other  potential  acquisition  opportunities.  Additionally,  the  Group  continues  to 
monitor the BCL Limited liquidation process concerning the Group’s affected Botswanan tenements. 

OPERATING RESULTS 

The consolidated loss for the year attributable to the members of the Company was:

DIRECTORS’ REPORT 

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS  

Driven largely by the Covid-19 pandemic, the focus during the last year was on diversifying our business by firstly identifying a 
project of merit (Monument Gold Project, Western Australia) and then developing it alongside our assets in Botswana (Maibele 
Base Metals Project). 

Covid-19 has caused delays in conducting work programs  and securing technical contractors, particularly in Botswana  and 
South Africa and various restrictions and lockdown measures have presented challenges.  Our country manager did succumb 
to the illness and the Board is grateful that he received adequate support and fought through it all.  

In  Botswana,  the  focus  during  the  year  has  been  on  three  prospects  (Maibele  North,  Airstrip  and  Dibete).  A  deep  down-
plunging anomaly to the east of the main resource at Maibele was drilled. A number of surveys have also been undertaken in 
an attempt to accurately detect potential sulphide mineralisation including gradient array induced polarisation, pole-dipole 
induced polarisation and audio-frequency magnetotellurics surveys. Early stage field exploration work was also undertaken at 
Majante. 

In Western Australia, a number of field programs were undertaken particularly as part of due diligence investigations. The 
focus was on the Korong and Waihi prospects with drilling undertaken to target strike extensions to existing mineralisation, 
high-grade  shoot  extensions at  depth  and  the  prospective  basal  banded  iron  formation  unit.  Work  was  also  conducted  to 
validate the historic drill data in preparation for future resource calculations.  

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  

The Group continues to consider the acquisition and development of any other investments, both within the mining industry 
and in market segments unrelated to the mining. The impact of Covid-19 on the company going forward, including its financial 
condition cannot be reasonably estimated at this stage and will be monitored by the Directors on an ongoing basis.

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE STATE OF AFFAIRS 

Significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group during the financial year were as follows: 
During the year, Si6 Metals Limited 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. The 
acquisition was completed in August 2021. 

SHARE PLACEMENTS AND OPTIONS EXERCISED 

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 16 December 2020, the Company raised $2,000,000 before costs through the issue of 117,647,060 fully paid ordinary shares 
at $0.017 per share. 

A further $2,192,110 was raised by Company through the exercise of options at various times throughout the year. 

AFTER BALANCE DATE EVENTS 

On 1 July 2021, 100,687,654 quoted options exercisable at $0.015 expired. 

On 26 July 2021, the Company announced it had exercised its option to acquire a 100% interest in the Monument Gold Project 
and entered into a binding option agreement with DiscovEx Resources Limited (ASX:DCX).  

On 23 August 2021, the Company announced it had completed its acquisition of Monument Gold Project. A total of 34,883,721 
fully paid ordinary shares were issued to DiscovEx Resources Limited (ASX:DCX) and $100,000 paid in cash as consideration 
under the option agreement regarding the Monument Gold Project. 

On 6 August 2021, the Company announced that it had received a Purported 249D Notice. 

On 1 September 2021, the Company announced an Extraordinary General Meeting would be held on 12 October 2021 following 
receipt of the Purported 249D Notice. 

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 
2022. 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 2022 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 2022 

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.

and in market segments unrelated to the mining. The impact of Covid-19 on the company going forward, including its financial 
condition cannot be reasonably estimated at this stage and will be monitored by the Directors on an ongoing basis.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT 

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) CONTINUED 

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.  

Remuneration and Performance 
The following table shows the gross revenue, losses, earnings per share (“EPS”) of the Company as at 30 June 2021.

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

DIRECTORS’ REPORT 

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) CONTINUED 

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. 

b) 

c) 

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.  

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.

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) CONTINUED 

Service Agreements 
There are no service agreement contracts between the Company and the directors.   

Share-based compensation  
The Company rewards Directors for their performance and aligns their remuneration with the creation of shareholder wealth 
by issuing share options. Share-based compensation is at the discretion of the Board and no individual has a contractual right 
to receive any guaranteed benefits.  

The following table summarises the model and assumptions used to estimate the value of the options granted during the 
year. The value of the service related to each tranche granted cannot be estimated reliably, they have been valued using the 
Black-Scholes model. All options vested immediately upon grant. Of the 24,000,000 options granted to Directors, 15,000,000 
were granted to Patrick Holywell, 6,000,000 were granted to Steve Groves and 3,000,000 were granted to Joshua Letcher.

justifies the establishment of measurable diversity objectives. As the Company develops, the Board will seek to develop a

reporting framework in the future to report  the Company’s progress against  the objectives and strategies for achieving a 
diverse workplace which can be used as a guide to be used by the Company to identify new Directors, senior executives and 
employees.  The  Company  intends  to  appoint  additional  female  Directors  and  employees  should  a  vacancy  arise,  and

“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 21. 

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. No new 
standards have had a significant impact on the company’s financial statements. 

Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been 
early adopted by the consolidated entity. 

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.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

(c)   Principles of Consolidation 

Subsidiaries 
The  consolidated  financial  statements  incorporate  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  all  subsidiaries  of  Si6  Metals  Limited 
(‘Company’ or ‘parent entity’) as at 30 June 2021 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Si6 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 Si6 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.

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.

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. 

(h)  Leases 

Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the 
net present value of the fixed lease payments discounted using the incremental borrowing rate in the lease. Right-of-
use assets are measured at cost comprising the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, depreciated 
over the lease term on a straight-line basis. In December 2020, the Company purchased a motor vehicle for $133,012. 
The motor vehicle has been financed at an interest rate of 2.98%, expiring December 2026. 
Refer to note 10 for further details on the Group’s lease arrangements. 

(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.

(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 
Equity investments that are held for trading and for which the entity has not elected to recognise fair value gains and 
losses through other comprehensive income are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. 

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. 

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, a fair value loss is recognised in profit or loss.

NOTE 1 

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

(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. 

(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.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

NOTE 1 

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

(p) 

Share-based Payments 

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. 

(q) 

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.  

(r) 

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.

NOTE 1  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

(s)  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. 

(t)  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. 

(u)  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 
of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact profit or loss and equity. The assumptions 
and models used for estimating the fair value of share based payments transactions are disclosed in Note 13.

The commitments relate to the Prospecting licences issued to African Metals (Pty) Ltd by the Department of Mines in 
Botswana and the licences issued to Monument Exploration Project Pty Ltd (an asset acquisition of the Company and its 
licences occurred subsequent to year end in August 2021).  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 their 
expiry. In the event the Group does not meet the minimum exploration expenditure the licences may be cancelled or not 
renewed.   

NOTE 18   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 20   FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT 

The  Group’s  financial  instruments  consist  mainly  of  deposits  with  banks,  an  investment  in  equity  securities  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.

NOTE 20  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:

(i)  This interest rate represents the average interest rate for the period. 

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 2021, 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:

NOTE 20   FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) 

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. The Company’s cash accounts are held with Westpac, their credit rating is AA- by S&P Global and Moody’s.   

Price risk 
The group’s exposure to equity securities price risk arises from a publicly traded investment in the ASX. To manage price risk, 
the group regularly monitors the price of the equity security to determine its investment position. The loss of the company 
would increase/(decrease) by $4,552/($4,552) (2020: $nil) if prices in the securities market were to decrease/(increase) by 5%. 

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 2021, 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.

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 2020. 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 
12 and 13 respectively.  

The  Group  operates  in  Australia  and  Botswana.  None  of  the  Group’s  companies  are  subject  to  externally  imposed  capital 
requirements.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 

NOTE 22   EVENTS AFTER THE END OF THE REPORTING PERIOD (CONTINUED) 

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 
2022. 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 2022 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 2022. 

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.

information contained in the financial report for the year ended 30 June 2021, but does not include the
financial report and our auditor’s report thereon, which we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s
report, and the annual report, which is expected to be made available to us after that date.

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
identified above 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 on the other information that we obtained prior to the date
of this auditor’s report, 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.

When we read the annual report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are
required to communicate the matter to the directors and will request that it is corrected. If it is not
corrected, we will seek to have the matter appropriately brought to the attention of users for whom
our report is prepared

 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

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.
