These developments have necessitated a refresh of the feasibility study together with bolstering the executive and staffing of the company. Of particular significance to the company has been the appointment of Mr Malcom Paterson to the role of Chief Executive Officer. Malcolm has been responsible for an innovative development approach to the Mirah project located in Ce(cid:374)t(cid:396)al Kali(cid:373)a(cid:374)ta(cid:374) (cid:449)hi(cid:272)h has (cid:373)a(cid:454)i(cid:373)ised the use of lo(cid:272)al (cid:396)esou(cid:396)(cid:272)es a(cid:374)d e(cid:454)pe(cid:396)tise, togethe(cid:396) (cid:449)ith a full (cid:862)O(cid:449)(cid:374)e(cid:396)s Ope(cid:396)ato(cid:396)(cid:863) app(cid:396)oa(cid:272)h that e(cid:374)a(cid:271)led the p(cid:396)oje(cid:272)t to su(cid:272)(cid:272)essful, effi(cid:272)ie(cid:374)tl(cid:455) a(cid:374)d p(cid:396)ofita(cid:271)l(cid:455) ope(cid:396)ate despite some challenging issues including low head grade, high strip ratio and operation during a period of low prevailing gold and silver prices. The Sihayo Gold board could clearly see that the template applied to the Mirah Project would fit with the Sihayo- Pungkut Project and had great potential to improve profitability and return on capital. Malcolm is now taking a similar approach to the Sihayo-Pungkut project with a refresh of the feasibility study using a team built with his expert local knowledge and network. The aim is to deliver a larger project, with lower costs but at comparable upfront capex. We are somewhat limited in terms of what we can say until the feasibility study refresh is completed, but there is a great deal of optimism internally about how effective the new approach is likely to be. I would again like to thank our employees, contractors and my fellow directors for their efforts over the past twelve months. I would also like to thank our shareholders and particularly our major shareholder for their ongoing support of the company. I look forward to the next twelve months and believe we will demonstrate the Sihayo-Pungkut project has an exciting future with strong potential returns for our shareholders. Yours Sincerely, Misha Anthony Collins 4 | P a g e REVIEW OF OPERATIONS Sihayo Gold Project (75%) The Siha(cid:455)o Gold P(cid:396)oje(cid:272)t (cid:894)(cid:862)Sihayo(cid:863)(cid:895) is held (cid:271)(cid:455) PT So(cid:396)ik(cid:373)as Mi(cid:374)i(cid:374)g (cid:894)(cid:862)So(cid:396)ik(cid:373)as(cid:863)(cid:895) under a 7th Generation Co(cid:374)t(cid:396)a(cid:272)t of Wo(cid:396)k (cid:894)(cid:862)COW(cid:863)(cid:895) and is located in Mandailing Natal, North Sumatra, Indonesia.

A complex suite of Permian volcanics and sediments, intruded by Jurassic and Cretaceous intrusive plutons, subsequently juxtaposed or overlain by Tertiary to recent volcanics, intrusives, and sediments comprises the broader COW area. Figure 2 shows the location of the Sihayo - Sambung Resources and key exploration prospects across the COW that support an opportunity for significant exploration targets for ongoing potential project generation. In addition to the Sihayo Resource there are over twenty (20) identified prospects of carbonate-hosted gold, low to intermediate -sulphidation epithermal-vein gold; gold-copper skarn, copper-gold porphyry, and lead- zinc skarn style mineralisation spread across the highly prospective COW area and these prospects will be the subject of future exploration activities.

An update of the Feasibility Study is presently underway to include several significant changes to improve the project economics, including:  Doubling the production rate to 80,000 – 100,000 oz per year,  Reducing tailings and waste disposal costs by backfilling mined out pits,  Owner operation for mining, drilling and laboratory service,  Simplified plant design to reduce capital,  Inclusion of cyanide recovery and detox technology using the RECYN process to reduce operating costs. The updated study is expected to be completed by December 2017. Permitting and Approvals The status of the COW is now in the first year of construction and the Company expects to complete construction within the permitted three year period providing the updated FS is successful. The three key Indonesian Government approvals, Feasibility Study, AMDAL (Environmental) and Forestry are now complete, although updates or Addendums will be required to comply with the proposed changes. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Programmes Ahead of the potential project development the Company has continued to engage local Stakeholders associated with Government permitting and approvals. As the project progress into construction and operation, the Company remains committed to the delivery of CSR programs in line with our Strategy. 9 | P a g e REVIEW OF OPERATIONS Other Projects India – Diamond Exploration (9-10%) No progress was made during the year in resolving the legal status of the tenements.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The financial statements are general purpose financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standards of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. The financial statements cover Sihayo Gold Limited and its controlled entities, and has authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 29 September 2017. Sihayo Gold Limited is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the group in the preparation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated. Basis of Preparation Statement of compliance The financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) and the Corporations Act 2001. The consolidated financial report of the Group also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards and interpretations adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board. New standards and interpretations not yet adopted A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations issued by the AASB which are not yet mandatorily applicable to Sihayo Group have not been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements. Those which may be relevant to the Group are set out below. Sihayo Group does not plan to adopt these standards early. Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 30 June 2017 (cid:396)epo(cid:396)ti(cid:374)g (cid:455)ea(cid:396). The g(cid:396)oup(cid:859)s assess(cid:373)e(cid:374)t of the i(cid:373)pa(cid:272)t of these (cid:374)e(cid:449) sta(cid:374)da(cid:396)ds a(cid:374)d i(cid:374)te(cid:396)p(cid:396)etatio(cid:374)s is set out below:  AASB 9 Financial Instruments and associated Amending Standards (applicable for annual reporting period commencing 1 January 2018) The Standard will be applicable retrospectively (subject to the comment on hedge accounting below) and includes revised requirements for the classification and measurement of financial instruments, revised recognition and derecognition requirements for financial instruments and simplified requirements for hedge accounting. Key changes made to this standard that may affect the Group on initial application include certain simplifications to the classification of financial assets, simplifications to the accounting of embedded derivatives, and the irrevocable election to recognise gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading in other comprehensive income. The directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 9 will not have a material impact on the G(cid:396)oup(cid:859)s fi(cid:374)a(cid:374)(cid:272)ial i(cid:374)st(cid:396)u(cid:373)e(cid:374)ts). 27 | P a g e NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For The Year Ended 30 June 2017 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)  AASB 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers (applicable to annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2018) When effective, this Standard will replace the current accounting requirements applicable to revenue with a single, principles-based model. Except for a limited number of exceptions, including leases, the new revenue model in AASB 15 will apply to all contracts with customers as well as non-monetary exchanges between entities in the same line of business to facilitate sales to customers and potential customers. The core principle of the Standard is that an entity will recognise revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for the goods or services. To achieve this objective, AASB 15 provides the following five-step process: - identify the contract(s) with a customer; - identify the performance obligations in the contract(s); - determine the transaction price; - allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract(s); and - recognise revenue when (or as) the performance obligations are satisfied. This Standard will require retrospective restatement, as well as enhanced disclosures regarding revenue. Although the directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 15 may have an impact on the Group's financial statements, it is impracticable at this stage to provide a reasonable estimate of such impact.  AASB 16: Leases (applicable to annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2019). When effective, this Standard will replace the current accounting requirements applicable to leases in AASB 117: Leases and related interpretations. AASB 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model that eliminates the requirement for leases to be classified as either operating leases or finance leases. Lessor accounting remains similar to current practice. 28 | P a g e NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For The Year Ended 30 June 2017 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) The main changes introduced by the new Standard are as follows: - recognition of the right-to-use asset and liability for all leases (excluding short term leases with less than 12 months of tenure and leases relating to low value assets); - depreciating the right-to-use assets in line with AASB 116: Property, Plant and Equipment in profit or loss and unwinding of the liability in principal and interest components; - - - inclusion of variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate in the initial measurement of the lease liability using the index or rate at the commencement date; application of a practical expedient to permit a lessee to elect not to separate non-lease components and instead account for all components as a lease; and additional disclosure requirements. The transitional provisions of AASB 16 allow a lease to either retrospectively apply the Standard to comparatives in line with AASB 108 or recognise the cumulative effect of retrospective application as an adjustment to opening equity at the date of initial application. The directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 16 will not have a material impact on the G(cid:396)oup(cid:859)s (cid:396)e(cid:272)og(cid:374)itio(cid:374) of leases and disclosures.  AASB 2014-10: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture (applicable to annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2018).

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)  Other standards not yet applicable There are no other standards that are not yet effective and that would be expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions New and amended standards adopted by the Group The group has considered the implications of new and amended Accounting Standards applicable for annual reporting periods beginning after 1 January 2016 but determined that their application to the financial statements is either not relevant or not material. a) Going Concern The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which the directors believe to be appropriate. The directors are confident that the Group will be able to maintain sufficient levels of working capital to continue as a going concern and continue to pay its debts as and when they fall due. For the year ended 30 June 2017, the Group incurred a loss before tax of $1,315,522 (2016: loss of $2,542,637) and has a working capital deficit of $170,844 (2016: $4,627,619). The Group has cash and cash equivalents of $834,757 (2016:27,720) and current liabilities of $1,208,726 which includes borrowings of $261,510. The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The G(cid:396)oup(cid:859)s a(cid:271)ilit(cid:455) to (cid:272)o(cid:374)ti(cid:374)ue as a goi(cid:374)g (cid:272)o(cid:374)(cid:272)ern is dependent upon it maintaining sufficient funds for its ope(cid:396)atio(cid:374)s a(cid:374)d (cid:272)o(cid:373)(cid:373)it(cid:373)e(cid:374)ts. The Di(cid:396)e(cid:272)to(cid:396)s (cid:272)o(cid:374)ti(cid:374)ue to (cid:271)e fo(cid:272)used o(cid:374) (cid:373)eeti(cid:374)g the G(cid:396)oup(cid:859)s (cid:271)usi(cid:374)ess objectives and is mindful of the funding requirements to meet these objectives. The Directors consider the basis of going concern to be appropriate for the following reasons: • • • The current cash of the Group relative to its fixed and discretionary commitments; The (cid:272)o(cid:374)ti(cid:374)ge(cid:374)t (cid:374)atu(cid:396)e of (cid:272)e(cid:396)tai(cid:374) of the G(cid:396)oup(cid:859)s p(cid:396)oje(cid:272)t e(cid:454)pe(cid:374)ditu(cid:396)e (cid:272)o(cid:373)(cid:373)it(cid:373)e(cid:374)ts; The ability of the Group to terminate certain agreements without any further on-going obligation beyond what has accrued up to the date of termination; The underlying prospects for the Group to raise funds from the capital markets; and The fact that future exploration and evaluation expenditure are generally discretionary in nature (ie. at the discretion of the Directors having regard to an assessment of the progress of works undertaken to date and the prospects for the same). Subject to meeting certain expenditure commitments, further exploration activities may be slowed or suspended as part of the (cid:373)a(cid:374)age(cid:373)e(cid:374)t of the G(cid:396)oup(cid:859)s (cid:449)o(cid:396)ki(cid:374)g (cid:272)apital. • • 30 | P a g e NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For The Year Ended 30 June 2017 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) a) Going Concern (continued) The Directors are confident that the Group can continue as a going concern and as such are of the opinion that the financial report has been appropriately prepared on a going concern basis. Should the Group be unable to undertake the initiatives disclosed above, there is uncertainty which may cast doubt as to whether or not the Group will be able to continue as a going concern and whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts nor to the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern. b) Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of entities controlled by Sihayo Gold Limited and all of the subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are entities the parent controls. The parent controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. A list of the subsidiaries is provided in Note 18. The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial statements of the Group from the date on which control is obtained by the Group. The consolidation of a subsidiary is discontinued from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between Group entities are fully eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed and adjustments made where necessary to ensure uniformity of the accounting policies adopted by the Group. E(cid:395)uit(cid:455) i(cid:374)te(cid:396)ests i(cid:374) a su(cid:271)sidia(cid:396)(cid:455) (cid:374)ot att(cid:396)i(cid:271)uta(cid:271)le, di(cid:396)e(cid:272)tl(cid:455) o(cid:396) i(cid:374)di(cid:396)e(cid:272)tl(cid:455), to the G(cid:396)oup a(cid:396)e p(cid:396)ese(cid:374)ted as (cid:862)(cid:374)o(cid:374) controlling interests". The Group initially recognises non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests in subsidiaries and are entitled to a proportionate share of the subsidiary's net assets on liquidation at either fair value or at the non-controlling interests' proportionate share of the subsidiary's net assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, non-controlling interests are attributed their share of profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income. Non-controlling interests are shown separately within the equity section of the statement of financial position and statement of comprehensive income. c) Business Combinations The purchase method of accounting is used to account for business combinations regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. The cost of a business combination is measured as the fair value of the assets given, shares issued or liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. For each business combination, the acquirer measures the non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. 31 | P a g e NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For The Year Ended 30 June 2017 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) c) Business Combinations (continued) Where equity instruments are issued in a business combination, the fair value of the instruments is their published market price as at the date of exchange unless, in rare circumstances, it can be demonstrated that the published price at the date of exchange is an unreliable indicator of fair value and that other evidence and valuation methods provide a more reliable measure of fair value. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any non-controlling i(cid:374)te(cid:396)est. The e(cid:454)(cid:272)ess of the (cid:272)ost of the (cid:271)usi(cid:374)ess (cid:272)o(cid:373)(cid:271)i(cid:374)atio(cid:374) o(cid:448)e(cid:396) the fai(cid:396) (cid:448)alue of the G(cid:396)oup(cid:859)s sha(cid:396)e of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the Statement of Comprehensive Income, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired. If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured at fair value as at the acquisition date through profit or loss. Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are dis(cid:272)ou(cid:374)ted to thei(cid:396) p(cid:396)ese(cid:374)t (cid:448)alue as at the date of e(cid:454)(cid:272)ha(cid:374)ge. The dis(cid:272)ou(cid:374)t (cid:396)ate used is the e(cid:374)tit(cid:455)(cid:859)s incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions. d) Income Tax The charge for current income tax expenses is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any non- assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or are substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. The amount of benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in income tax legislation and the anticipation that the economic entity will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefit to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by the law. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the statement of comprehensive income except where it relates to items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against equity. 32 | P a g e NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For The Year Ended 30 June 2017 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) e) Property, Plant & Equipment Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis less depreciation and impairment losses. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts Depreciation The depreciable amount of all Property, Plant and Equipment (other than Leasehold Improvements and certain plant and equipment which are based on the prime cost method) is based on the diminishing value method over their useful lives to the Company commencing from the time the assets are held ready for use. The depreciation rates used for plant and equipment vary between 2.5% and 40%. The assets(cid:859) (cid:396)esidual (cid:448)alues a(cid:374)d useful li(cid:448)es a(cid:396)e (cid:396)e(cid:448)ie(cid:449)ed, a(cid:374)d adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. A(cid:374) asset(cid:859)s (cid:272)a(cid:396)(cid:396)(cid:455)i(cid:374)g a(cid:373)ou(cid:374)t is (cid:449)(cid:396)itte(cid:374) do(cid:449)(cid:374) i(cid:373)(cid:373)ediatel(cid:455) to its (cid:396)e(cid:272)o(cid:448)e(cid:396)a(cid:271)le a(cid:373)ou(cid:374)t if the asset(cid:859)s (cid:272)a(cid:396)(cid:396)(cid:455)i(cid:374)g value is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the statement of comprehensive income. f) Acquistion of Assets The purchase method of accounting is used for all acquisitions of assets regardless of whether shares or other assets are acquired. Cost is determined as the fair value of the assets given up, shares issued or liabilities undertaken at the date of acquisition plus costs incidental to the acquisition. Where shares are issued in an acquisition, the value of the shares is determined having reference to the fair value of the assets or net assets acquired, including goodwill or discount on acquisition where applicable. Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value as at the date of the acquisition. The discount rate used is the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained under comparable terms and conditions. g) Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These costs are only carried forward to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through the successful development of the area or where activities in the areas have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves. Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit in the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made. 33 | P a g e NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For The Year Ended 30 June 2017 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) g) Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure (continued) When production commences, the accumulated costs for the relevant area of interest are amortised over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the economically recoverable reserves. A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest. h) Financial Instruments Recognition Financial instruments are initially measured at cost on trade date, which includes transaction costs, when the related contractual rights or obligations exist. Subsequent to initial recognition these instruments are measured as set out below. Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Financial liabilities Non-derivative financial liabilities are recognised at amortised cost, comprising original debt less principal payments and amortisation. Fair value Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to dete(cid:396)(cid:373)i(cid:374)e the fai(cid:396) (cid:448)alue fo(cid:396) all u(cid:374)listed se(cid:272)u(cid:396)ities, i(cid:374)(cid:272)ludi(cid:374)g (cid:396)e(cid:272)e(cid:374)t a(cid:396)(cid:373)(cid:859)s le(cid:374)gth t(cid:396)a(cid:374)sa(cid:272)tio(cid:374)s, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models. Impairment At each reporting date, the group assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. Impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. i) Impairment of Assets At each reporting date, the group reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, bei(cid:374)g the highe(cid:396) of the asset(cid:859)s fai(cid:396) (cid:448)alue less (cid:272)osts to sell a(cid:374)d (cid:448)alue i(cid:374) use, is (cid:272)o(cid:373)pa(cid:396)ed to the asset(cid:859)s (cid:272)a(cid:396)(cid:396)(cid:455)i(cid:374)g (cid:448)alue. A(cid:374)(cid:455) e(cid:454)(cid:272)ess of the asset(cid:859)s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the statement of comprehensive income. j) Interests in Joint Arrangements Joint arrangements represent the contractual sharing of control between parties in a business venture where unanimous decisions about relevant activities are required. Separate joint venture entities providing joint venturers with an interest to net assets are classified as a "joint venture" and accounted for using the equity method. 34 | P a g e NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For The Year Ended 30 June 2017 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) j) Interests in Joint Arrangements (continued) Joint venture operations represent arrangements whereby joint operators maintain direct interests in each asset and exposure to each liability of the arrangement. The Group's interests in the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses of joint operations are included in the respective line items of the consolidated financial statements. Gains and losses resulting from sales to a joint operation are recognised to the extent of the other parties' interests. When the Group makes purchases from a joint operation, it does not recognise its share of the gains and losses from the joint arrangement until it resells those goods/assets to a third party. k) Functional and Presentation Currency The fu(cid:374)(cid:272)tio(cid:374)al (cid:272)u(cid:396)(cid:396)e(cid:374)(cid:272)(cid:455) of ea(cid:272)h of the g(cid:396)oup(cid:859)s e(cid:374)tities is (cid:373)easu(cid:396)ed usi(cid:374)g the (cid:272)u(cid:396)(cid:396)e(cid:374)(cid:272)(cid:455) of the p(cid:396)i(cid:373)a(cid:396)(cid:455) economic environment in which that entity operates.

Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical costs continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined. Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cashflow or net investment hedge. Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in equity to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in equity, otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. m) Group Companies The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the g(cid:396)oup(cid:859)s p(cid:396)ese(cid:374)tatio(cid:374) (cid:272)u(cid:396)(cid:396)e(cid:374)(cid:272)(cid:455) a(cid:396)e t(cid:396)a(cid:374)slated as follo(cid:449)s:  Assets and Liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date.  Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period.

These differences are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income in the period in which the operation is disposed. n) Revenue Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets. Revenue from the sale of assets is recognised at the date that the contract is entered into. All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST) 35 | P a g e NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For The Year Ended 30 June 2017 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) o) Employee Benefits P(cid:396)o(cid:448)isio(cid:374) is (cid:373)ade fo(cid:396) the g(cid:396)oup(cid:859)s lia(cid:271)ilit(cid:455) fo(cid:396) e(cid:373)plo(cid:455)ee (cid:271)e(cid:374)efits a(cid:396)isi(cid:374)g f(cid:396)o(cid:373) se(cid:396)(cid:448)i(cid:272)es rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. Employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. p) Provisions Provisions are recognised when the group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of a past event, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. q) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short term borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position. r) Goods and Services Tax (GST) Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST. Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows. s) Share Based Payment Transactions The group provides benefits to the directors and senior executives in the form of share-based payment t(cid:396)a(cid:374)sa(cid:272)tio(cid:374)s, (cid:449)he(cid:396)e(cid:271)(cid:455) se(cid:396)(cid:448)i(cid:272)es a(cid:396)e (cid:396)e(cid:374)de(cid:396)ed i(cid:374) e(cid:454)(cid:272)ha(cid:374)ge fo(cid:396) sha(cid:396)es o(cid:396) (cid:396)ights o(cid:448)e(cid:396) sha(cid:396)es (cid:894)(cid:858)e(cid:395)uit(cid:455) settled t(cid:396)a(cid:374)sa(cid:272)tio(cid:374)s(cid:859)(cid:895). The cost of these equity settled transactions with directors is measured by reference to the fair value at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an external valuer using the Black- Scholes model. In valuing equity-settled transactions, no account is taken of any performance conditions, other than conditions linked to the price of the shares of Sihayo Gold Limited. 36 | P a g e NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For The Year Ended 30 June 2017 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) s) Share Based Payment Transactions (continued) The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the market conditions are fulfilled. The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the number of awards that in the opinion of the directors will ultimately vest. The opinion is formed on the best available information at balance date. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date. No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is conditional upon market condition. Where the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any increase in the value of the transaction as a result of the modification, as measured at the date of modification. Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award, and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph. The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of earnings per share. t) Trade and Other Receivables CURRENT All trade debtors are recognised at the amounts receivable as they are due for settlement no more than 30 days from the date of recognition. Collectability of trade debtors is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off. A provision for doubtful debts is raised when some doubt as to collection exists and in any event when the debt is more than 60 days overdue. u) Trade and Other Receivables NON-CURRENT All debtors that are not expected to be received within 12 months of reporting date are included in non- current receivables. Collectability of non-current receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts which are known to be uncollectible are written off. A provision for doubtful debts is raised when some doubt as to collection exists. v) Trade and Other Creditors These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated entity prior to the end of the financial year and which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition 37 | P a g e NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For The Year Ended 30 June 2017 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) w) Operating Leases Operating lease payments are charged to the Statement of comprehensive income in the periods in which they are incurred, as this represents the pattern of benefits derived from the leased assets. x) Significant Accounting Judgements, Estimates and Assumptions Significant accounting judgements I(cid:374) the p(cid:396)o(cid:272)ess of appl(cid:455)i(cid:374)g the G(cid:396)oup(cid:859)s a(cid:272)(cid:272)ou(cid:374)ti(cid:374)g poli(cid:272)ies, (cid:373)a(cid:374)age(cid:373)e(cid:374)t has (cid:373)ade the follo(cid:449)i(cid:374)g judge(cid:373)e(cid:374)ts, apart from those involving estimations, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements: Exploration and evaluation assets The G(cid:396)oup(cid:859)s a(cid:272)(cid:272)ou(cid:374)ti(cid:374)g poli(cid:272)(cid:455) fo(cid:396) e(cid:454)plo(cid:396)atio(cid:374) a(cid:374)d e(cid:448)aluatio(cid:374) e(cid:454)pe(cid:374)ditu(cid:396)e is set out a(cid:271)o(cid:448)e. The appli(cid:272)atio(cid:374) of this policy necessarily requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions as to future events and circumstances, in particular, the assessment of whether economic quantities of reserves are found. Any such estimates and assumptions may change as new information becomes available. Significant accounting estimates and assumptions The carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities are often determined based on estimates and assumptions of future events. The key estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period are: Recovery of deferred assets Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences when management considers that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available to utilise those temporary differences. Share-based payment transactions The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The Group measures the cost of cash-settled share-based payments at fair value at the grant date using the Black-Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. y) Segment Reporting The Group determines and presents operating segments based on the information that internally is provided to the Ma(cid:374)agi(cid:374)g Di(cid:396)e(cid:272)to(cid:396), (cid:449)ho is the G(cid:396)oup(cid:859)s (cid:272)hief ope(cid:396)ati(cid:374)g de(cid:272)isio(cid:374) (cid:373)ake(cid:396).

The maximum exposure to credit risk at balance date is the carrying amount (net of provision of doubtful debts) of those assets as disclosed in the statement of financial position and note 21. As the consolidated entity and Company does not presently have any debtors arising from sales, lending, significant stock levels or any other credit risk, a formal credit risk management policy is not maintained. (c) Foreign currency risk management The Consolidated Entity and the Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currencies arising from costs incurred at overseas mineral exploration tenements. To mitigate this risk the Company holds cash in the currency in which it forecasts the costs will be incurred. 40 | P a g e NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For The Year Ended 30 June 2017 2. RISK MANAGEMENT (continued) (d) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Consolidated Entity and the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. Financial obligations of the Consolidated Entity and the Company consist of trade creditors and other payables. The Company has not conducted a sensitivity analysis on credit or interest rate risk as the amounts are not considered significant. 3.
