Please refer to https://www.strategicenergy.com.au/corporate-governance/ 2 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Review of operations 30 June 2019 SER has made significant progress across our projects and generated a number of new opportunities. Our share price has shown a sustained 20% increase since this time last year. In Copper-Gold, SER and Fortescue Metals Group concluded a Farm-In and Joint Venture Agreement to explore SER’s Myall Creek project in South Australia. SER also applied for and won Exploration Licence EL6335 “Billa Kalina” in the Olympic Copper-Gold Province. In Gold, SER completed final preparations for the 2019 drilling of the Saxby gold project, the most significant gold exploration prospect in the northeast Mt Isa Province region. In Heavy Mineral Sands, SER completed an internal techno-economic analysis of the Ambergate Heavy Mineral Sands project and has decided to advance the project. SER also lodged a Mining Lease application over the Jangardup South deposit. SER’s strategy is counter-cyclical project generation followed by cutting-edge technical exploration. We generated our current projects at very low cost when these commodities were unfashionable. Now market conditions for Copper, Gold and Heavy Mineral Sands have improved dramatically. SER is already generating the next series of projects and we look forward to sharing details with shareholders in the near future. As exploration becomes more challenging, fewer companies are undertaking true greenfields exploration. Discovery rates are declining, and the pipeline of emerging mines for the major mining companies is running dry. This presents an opportunity for SER with our undercover exploration experience and stable shareholder cohort committed to long-term value creation. To further enhance SER’s strengths of identifying new search spaces and conducting high-quality technical exploration, SER joined the Mineral Exploration Cooperative Research Centre (MinEx CRC), the world’s largest mineral exploration collaboration. SER is one of only two exploration companies admitted to participate in this collaboration of major mining companies, research organisations and all the Geological Surveys of Australia. MinEx CRC will develop new exploration tools to discover the next generation of mineral deposits in under-explored areas of Australia and SER will be there as it happens. SER remains well funded to conduct our ongoing operations. We run a very low cost company and management are major shareholders alongside you. We thank all shareholders for their continued support and look forward to an exciting year ahead. Sincerely Stuart Rechner Executive Chairman 3 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Review of operations 30 June 2019 MYALL CREEK COPPER-GOLD PROJECT SOUTH AUSTRALIA (SER 100%, FMG earning-in) In June 2019, SER and FMG Resources Pty Ltd executed a Farm-In and Joint Venture Agreement to explore SER’s Myall Creek Copper-Gold project in South Australia. FMG Resources Pty Ltd is a subsidiary of Fortescue Metals Group Limited (ASX:FMG; market capitalisation > AUD$20B). Under the Agreement, FMG will spend $1.5m on exploration, including a minimum of 1500m drilling, at Myall Creek to earn an 80% interest in the project. Figure 1: SER's Copper-Gold Projects within the Olympic Cu-Au Province 4 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Review of operations 30 June 2019 FMG will manage exploration, satisfy all expenditure requirements and keep the tenements in good standing. After FMG have earned-in, a joint venture will be formed under which each party will contribute pro-rata (FMG 80%, SER 20%) to further exploration and development or be diluted in accordance with industry standard formula. Figure 2: SER’s Myall Creek project (blue) and surrounding FMG tenements At Myall Creek, SER and FMG are targeting Iron Oxide Copper-Gold (IOCG) mineralisation in the Proterozoic basement and sediment-hosted mineralisation in the overlying sediments. Key IOCG host rocks are present within the project area and overlying sediments include a 15km zone with anomalous copper in historic drilling. 5 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Review of operations 30 June 2019 BILLA KALINA COPPER-GOLD PROJECT SOUTH AUSTRALIA (SER 100%) During the year, SER applied for, won and was granted Exploration Licence EL6335 “Billa Kalina” in the Olympic Copper-Gold Province. SER won EL6335 in a competitive process following BHP’s announcement of a significant IOCG discovery at Oak Dam West. EL6335 lies to the east of the recently completed “Explorer Challenge” competition under which OZ Minerals awarded AUD$1m in prize money for innovative ideas to discover copper-gold deposits in this part of the Olympic Copper-Gold Province. Figure 3: Location of EL6335 within the Olympic Cu-Au Province 6 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Review of operations 30 June 2019 EL6335 covers coincident and offset gravity and magnetic anomalies approximately 60km northeast of the Prominent Hill copper-gold mine. A major NW/SE trending crustal structure runs through the project area adjacent to the gravity anomaly. The gravity and magnetic anomalies at EL6335 are not new. In fact, the anomalies were drill tested with two holes in 1977-78 by Newmont. The historic holes, SR11 (maximum depth 103.9m) and SR12 (399m), targeted the anomalies but failed to reach basement and explain the anomalous responses. The source of the geophysical anomalies remains unknown and there has been no further drilling within EL6335. The key geophysical anomalies in this region of the northeastern Gawler Craton are mostly held by major companies such as BHP, OZ Minerals and FMG (see Figure 5). Figure 4: RTP Magnetics image of northeastern Gawler Craton showing major land holdings and key anomalies SER has designed and commissioned the infill gravity survey to define the highest priority drill target which we intend to test with a single deep drill hole. The survey will be conducted during 2019. SER is familiar with the area incorporated by EL6335, with staff having conducted a ground gravity survey at the location in 2014. 7 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Review of operations 30 June 2019 SAXBY GOLD PROJECT QUEENSLAND (SER 100%) Over the financial year, SER has been preparing for drilling at the Saxby gold project in northwest Queensland. The Saxby gold project is the most significant gold exploration prospect in the northeast Mt Isa Province region. Historic drilling includes high grade intersections of 17m @ 6.75g/t Au (including 9m @ 11.27g/t Au) and 15m @ 9.09 g/t Au (including 8m @ 15.1g/t Au) in two holes 190m apart. SER is targeting gold mineralisation hosted in basement rocks of the Eastern Succession of the Mt Isa Province buried beneath younger sedimentary cover of the Carpentaria Basin. Several potential joint venture partners conducted thorough due diligence on the Saxby project throughout the year and SER would welcome a firm proposal from any of those groups. In the absence of a joint venture partner, SER will sole-fund the upcoming drill program. Figure 5: Previous drilling at Saxby over Magnetics (left) and proposed drilling into high grade gold intercept area 8 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Review of operations 30 June 2019 AMBERGATE HEAVY MINERAL SANDS WESTERN AUSTRALIA (SER 100%) SER completed an internal techno-economic analysis of the Ambergate Heavy Mineral Sands project and decided to advance the project. This early stage analysis will not satisfy ASX and JORC requirements and thus the results will not be released publicly. Market conditions for Heavy Mineral Sands continued to improve throughout the financial year. At Ambergate, SER has defined a JORC 2012 Inferred Mineral Resource of 11.2.Mt grading 5.1% Heavy Minerals for a total Heavy Mineral content of 569,000t.1 The next step will be to upgrade the category of resource and commence metallurgical test work. Figure 6: Ambergate Heavy Mineral Resource with surrounding heavy mineral mines2 1 See SER Annoucement of 17 April 2018: https://www.asx.com.au/asxpdf/20180417/pdf/43t8d8c99q8f1c.pdf 2 Sources: Mining Proposal for the Wonnerup South Mineral Sands Deposit (Cristal); Yoongarillup Mineral Sands Project PER (Doral) 9 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Review of operations 30 June 2019 Market conditions for Heavy Mineral Sands continued to improve throughout the financial year with strong growth and increasing commodity prices for titanium dioxide feedstocks and zircon driven by global urbanisation. Both are quality of life products with consumption increasing with global consumer affluence. The average Australian consumes more than two kilograms of titanium dioxide pigment per year. The average consumption in China is around half this amount, though this is changing rapidly.3 In addition to increasing demand, Heavy Mineral Sands has seen a significant inventory depletion in recent years. Existing producers’ mines are mature and grade decline is imminent. 4 JANGARUDP SOUTH HEAVY MINERAL SANDS WESTERN AUSTRALIA (SER 100%, APPLICATION ONLY) In August 2018, SER lodged Mining Lease application M70/1385 over the Jangardup South heavy mineral sands deposit in southwest Western Australia. The application area lies 4km south of the historic Jangardup deposit which was mined from 1994-2003 by Cable Sands. SER is conducting detailed investigations to consider potential environmental impacts of operations at Jangardup South as the application is near the D’Entrecasteaux National Park. SURRENDER OF OTHER HEAVY MINERAL SANDS PROJECTS Following detailed reviews, SER surrendered several other West Australian Heavy Mineral Sands exploration licences throughout the year. SER considered technical factors such as grade, tonnage, mineral assemblage / quality, slimes content, strip ratio and non-technical issues including existing land-use. The surrender of these licences will allow greater focus on the highest potential projects. SER JOINS MINERAL EXPLORATION COOPERATIVE RESEARCH CENTRE SER joined the Mineral Exploration Cooperative Research Centre (MinEx CRC), the world’s largest mineral exploration collaboration. The $218 million collaboration is underpinned by $50 million in Federal Government funding. Participants include major mining companies (BHP, South32, Anglo American); the Mining Equipment, Technology and Services (METS) sector; research organisations; together with Geoscience Australia and all the Geological Surveys in Australia. Only two exploration companies have been admitted to participate in this collaboration. The primary focus of the MinEx CRC is the development of new exploration tools and ways to deploy them to reduce the cost of drilling and increase the quantity and quality of data collected from the subsurface. The CRC will also conduct the National Drilling Initiative (NDI) - a collaboration with Geological Surveys and researchers that will undertake drilling in under-explored areas of potential mineral wealth in Australia. INVESTMENTS AND CORPORATE SER remains well funded to advance our current exploration projects and seize new opportunities in mineral exploration. During and immediately after the financial year, SER made a number of select placements to shareholders. On 14 August 2018, SER made a placement of 44,000,000 new fully paid ordinary shares at an issue price of $0.005 (0.5 cents) per share raising a total of $220,000.

General information The financial statements cover Strategic Energy Resources Limited as a consolidated entity consisting of Strategic Energy Resources Limited and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the year. The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Strategic Energy Resources Limited's functional and presentation currency. Strategic Energy Resources Limited is a listed public company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. Its registered office and principal place of business is: Level 4, 100 Albert Road South Melbourne, VIC 3205 The financial statements were authorised for issue, in accordance with a resolution of directors, on 15 August 2019. The directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial statements. Note 2. Significant accounting policies The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out either in the respective notes or below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted 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. The adoption of these Accounting Standards and Interpretations did not have any significant impact on the financial performance or position of the consolidated entity. Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted. 25 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Notes to the financial statements 30 June 2019 Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) The following Accounting Standards and Interpretations are most relevant to the consolidated entity: AASB 9 Financial Instruments AASB 9 Financial Instruments replaces AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. It makes major changes to the previous guidance on the classification and measurement of financial assets and introduces an 'expected credit loss' model for impairment of financial assets. When adopting AASB 9, the consolidated entity has applied transitional relief and opted not to restate prior periods. Differences arising from the adoption of AASB 9 in relation to classification, measurement, and impairment are recognised in opening retained earnings as at 1 July 2018. While this represents significant new guidance, the implementation of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the financial assets or the impairment of financial assets for the consolidated entity as at 30 June 2019. Following the adoption of AASB 9 the consolidated entity now recognises its investments as Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income when compared to 30 June 2018 where the investments were referred to as Available-for-sale financial assets. Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income are non-derivative financial assets, principally equity securities. The consolidated entity has made an irrevocable election to recognise changes in fair value after initial recognition through OCI rather than profit and loss. Upon disposal of these equity investments, any balance within the OCI reserve for these investments is reclassified to retained earnings and is not reclassified to profit and loss. Impairment of financial assets The consolidated entity assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. Objective evidence includes significant financial difficulty of the issuer or obligor; a breach of contract such as default or delinquency in payments; the lender granting to a borrower concessions due to economic or legal reasons that the lender would not otherwise do; it becomes probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation; the disappearance of an active market for the financial asset; or observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in estimated future cash flows. Should any of these indicators imply a significant increase in the instrument’s credit risk, the consolidated entity recognises for this instrument or class of instruments the lifetime expected credit losses 26 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Notes to the financial statements 30 June 2019 Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) Going concern The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The working capital position as at 30 June 2019 of the consolidated entity results in an excess of current assets over current liabilities of $996,246 (30 June 2018: $1,622,809). The consolidated entity made a loss after tax of $694,845 during the financial year (2018 loss: $766,260) and had net operating cash outflows of $572,995 (2018: $409,575). The cash balances, including term deposits, as at 30 June 2019 was $1,054,254 (2018: $1,665,419). The continuing viability of the consolidated entity and its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the consolidated entity being successful in its continuing efforts in exploration projects and accessing additional sources of capital to meet the commitments within one year from the date of signing the financial report. To meet these funding requirements as and when they fall due the consolidated entity may take appropriate steps, including a combination of: - Raising additional capital through the consolidated entity’s existing placement capacity - Subject to negotiation and approval, minimum work requirements may be varied or suspended, and/or permits may be surrendered or cancelled; and - Meeting its obligations by farm-out of the consolidated entity’s exploration interests. This financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Should the consolidated entity be unable to obtain the funding as described above, there is a material uncertainty as to whether the consolidated entity will be able to continue as a going concern, and therefore, whether it will be required to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities other than in the normal course of business and at amounts different from those stated in the financial report. The financial report does not include any adjustment relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts nor to the amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary should the consolidated entity be unable to continue as a going concern. Having carefully assessed the potential uncertainties relating to the consolidated entity’s ability to effectively fund exploration activities and operating expenditures, the Directors believe that the consolidated entity will continue to operate as a going concern for the foreseeable future. Therefore, the Directors consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. Rounding of amounts Strategic Energy Resources Limited is a type of Company that is referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191 and therefore the amounts contained in this report and in the financial report have been rounded to the nearest dollar. Basis of preparation 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'). Historical cost convention The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for, where applicable, the revaluation of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, investment properties, certain classes of property, plant and equipment and derivative financial instruments. Critical accounting estimates The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the consolidated entity'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 3. 27 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Notes to the financial statements 30 June 2019 Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) 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 22. Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Strategic Energy Resources Limited ('company' or 'parent entity') as at 30 June 2019 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Strategic Energy Resources Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the 'consolidated entity'. Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the consolidated entity has control. The consolidated entity controls an entity when the consolidated entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the consolidated entity. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the consolidated entity 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 of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest, without the loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction, where the difference between the consideration transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognised directly in equity attributable to the parent. Where the consolidated entity loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets including goodwill, liabilities and non-controlling interest in the subsidiary together with any cumulative translation differences recognised in equity. The consolidated entity recognises the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any investment retained together with any gain or loss in profit or loss. 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. Associates When the consolidated entity's share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any unsecured long-term receivables, the consolidated entity does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. The consolidated entity discontinues the use of the equity method upon the loss of significant influence over the associate and recognises any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the associate's carrying amount, fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit or loss. 28 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Notes to the financial statements 30 June 2019 Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued) Joint operations A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. The consolidated entity has recognised its share of jointly held assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of joint operations. These have been incorporated in the financial statements under the appropriate classifications. Interest income Interest income is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet mandatory, have not been early adopted by the consolidated entity for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2019. The consolidated entity's assessment of the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations, most relevant to the consolidated entity, are set out below. AASB 16 Leases This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The standard replaces AASB 117 'Leases' and for lessees will eliminate the classifications of operating leases and finance leases. Subject to exceptions, a 'right-of-use' asset will be capitalised in the statement of financial position, measured at the present value of the unavoidable future lease payments to be made over the lease term. The exceptions relate to short-term leases of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets (such as personal computers and small office furniture) where an accounting policy choice exists whereby either a 'right-of-use' asset is recognised or lease payments are expensed to profit or loss as incurred. A liability corresponding to the capitalised lease will also be recognised, adjusted for lease prepayments, lease incentives received, initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of any future restoration, removal or dismantling costs. Straight-line operating lease expense recognition will be replaced with a depreciation charge for the leased asset (included in operating costs) and an interest expense on the recognised lease liability (included in finance costs). In the earlier periods of the lease, the expenses associated with the lease under AASB 16 will be higher when compared to lease expenses under AASB 117. However EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation) results will be improved as the operating expense is replaced by interest expense and depreciation in profit or loss under AASB 16. For classification within the statement of cash flows, the lease payments will be separated into both a principal (financing activities) and interest (either operating or financing activities) component. For lessor accounting, the standard does not substantially change how a lessor accounts for leases. The consolidated entity will adopt this standard from 1 July 2019 but no material impact is expected as the consolidated entity currently has no leases. Note 3. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial year are discussed below. Fair value measurement hierarchy The consolidated entity is required to classify all assets and liabilities, measured at fair value, using a three level hierarchy, based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the entire fair value measurement, being: Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date; Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Considerable judgement is required to determine what is significant to fair value and therefore which category the asset or liability is placed in can be subjective. 29 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Notes to the financial statements 30 June 2019 Note 3. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (continued) Recovery of deferred tax assets Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences only if the consolidated entity considers it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Exploration and evaluation costs Exploration and evaluation costs have been capitalised on the basis that the consolidated entity will commence commercial production in the future, from which time the costs will be amortised in proportion to the depletion of the mineral resources. Key judgements are applied in considering costs to be capitalised which includes determining expenditures directly related to these activities and allocating overheads between those that are expensed and capitalised. In addition, costs are only capitalised that are expected to be recovered either through successful development or sale of the relevant mining interest. Factors that could impact the future commercial production at the mine include the level of reserves and resources, future technology changes, which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes and changes in commodity prices. To the extent that capitalised costs are determined not to be recoverable in the future, they will be written off in the period in which this determination is made. Note 4. Operating segments During the current financial year the consolidated entity operated in one segment being an explorer of base precious metals. AASB 8 requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about the components of the consolidated entity that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segment and to assess its performance. In the current year the board reviews the consolidated entity as one operating segment being mineral exploration within Australia. Revenue and assets by geographical area All assets and liabilities and operations are based in Australia.

These tax losses can only be utilised in the future if the continuity of ownership test is passed or, failing that, the same business test is passed. The taxation benefits of tax losses and temporary difference not brought to account will only be obtained if: (i) the consolidated entity derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit from the deductions for the losses to be realised; (ii) the consolidated entity continues to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by law; and (iii) no change in tax legislation adversely affects the consolidated entity in realising the benefits from deducting the losses.

Income tax (continued) Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates that are enacted or substantively enacted, except for: When the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a ● transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting nor taxable profits; or When the taxable temporary difference is associated with interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. ● 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. The carrying amount of recognised and unrecognised deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Deferred tax assets recognised are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for the carrying amount to be recovered. Previously unrecognised deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that there are future taxable profits available to recover the asset. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities; and they relate to the same taxable authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously. Note 7. Current assets - cash and cash equivalents Cash at bank Consolidated 2019 $ 2018 $ 1,054,254 1,665,419 Accounting policy for cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts. Note 8. Current assets - Other receivables Other receivables GST receivable Consolidated 2019 $ 2018 $ 1,843 14,842 865 10,584 16,685 11,449 Due to the short term nature of the receivables, their carrying value is assumed to be approximately their fair value. No collateral or security is held. The consolidated entity has financial risk management policies in place to ensure that all receivable are received within the credit timeframe. 32 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Notes to the financial statements 30 June 2019 Note 8. Current assets - Other receivables (continued) Accounting policy for trade and other receivables Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Impairment Allowances for impairment are recognised using an 'expected credit loss' ('ECL') model. Impairment is measured using a 12- month ECL method Unless the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition in which case the lifetime ECL method is adopted. Accounting policies applicable to comparative period (30 June 2018) Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired. Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Individual debts that are known to be uncollectible are written off when identified. An impairment provision is recognised when there is objective evidence that the consolidated entity will not be able to collect the receivable Goods and Services Tax ('GST') and other similar taxes Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the 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 tax authority is included in other receivables or other payables in the statement of financial position. Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating cash flows. Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority. Note 9. Non-current assets - Available-for-sale financial assets Investment in Emperor Energy Limited Consolidated 2019 $ 2018 $ - 3,900 33 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Notes to the financial statements 30 June 2019 Note 9. Non-current assets - Available-for-sale financial assets (continued) Prior to 1 July 2018 the investment in Emperor Energy Limited was designated as available-for- sale under AASB 139. Upon adoption of AASB 9 on 1 July 2018 the consolidated group elected to reclassify the investment as fair value through other comprehensive income. Accounting policies applicable to comparative period (30 June 2018) Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets, principally equity securities, that are either designated as available-for-sale or not classified as any other category. After initial recognition, fair value movements are recognised in other comprehensive income through the available-for-sale reserve in equity. Cumulative gain or loss previously reported in the available-for-sale reserve is recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired. Impairment of financial assets The consolidated entity assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. Objective evidence includes significant financial difficulty of the issuer or obligor; a breach of contract such as default or delinquency in payments; the lender granting to a borrower concessions due to economic or legal reasons that the lender would not otherwise do; it becomes probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation; the disappearance of an active market for the financial asset; or observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in estimated future cash flows. The amount of the impairment allowance for loans and receivables carried at amortised cost is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. If there is a reversal of impairment, the reversal cannot exceed the amortised cost that would have been recognised had the impairment not been made and is reversed to profit or loss. Note 10.

Prior to 1 July 2018 the investment in Emperor Energy Limited was designated as available-for- sale under AASB 139. Upon adoption of AASB 9 on 1 July 2018 the consolidated group elected to reclassify the investment as fair value through other comprehensive income. The consolidated entity disposed of 1,300,000 fully paid ordinary shares in Emperor Energy Limited (ASX: EMP) during September 2018 for a cash consideration of $5,200. Investment in Pepinnini Lithium Limited On 4 March 2019, the consolidated entity acquired 16,666,667 fully paid ordinary shares in Pepinnini Lithium Limited (ASX: PNN) at $0.003. Investments in PNN held by the consolidated entity at fair value are valued in accordance AASB 13, using Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The fair values of the financial assets held have been determined by reference to the quoted price on the ASX at 30 June 2019. Quantum Graphite Limited (ASX: QGL) On 17 November 2015, Quantum Graphite Limited (ASX: QGL) announced that the consolidated entity's securities will be placed into a voluntary suspension subject to completion of a capital raising. Consequently, the investments in QGL were fully impaired in the previous financial years. However, on 31 December 2018, the consolidated entity revalued its investments in QGL at $43,578. On 18 March 2019, these investments were disposed for a cash consideration of $43,578. Gasfields Limited (ASX:GFS) The consolidated entity currently holds 20,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares in Gasfields Limited (ASX:GFS) (formerly Raven Energy Limited (ASX:REL)). On 13 April 2018 GFS extended its voluntary suspension pending the divestment of its Botswana assets and negotiations regarding a strategic acquisition. On 9 May 2019 GFS announced its March 2019 Appendix 5B and noted cash and cash equivalents of $7,000. GFS's ability to continue as a going concern is depends on its ability to realise the value of its certain assets through divestment and complete strategic transaction. Currently GFS's shares are suspended from trading and until the uncertainties are resolved and shares are released from suspension and tradeable, management has continued to carry the value at Nil. Ionic Industries Limited (Ionic) The consolidated entity holds 87,155,625 shares in Ionic Industries Limited (an unlisted company) which have been valued at $Nil in accordance AASB 13, using Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy- inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) as the investment cannot be reliably measured. Ionic completed a capital raising during the year, however it is not considered significant enough to create a liquidity event nor referenced to any independent valuation of the intellectual property held by Ionic. As such, the Directors have not placed a value on this investment until such time as the shares in Ionic can be valued through reference to a liquidity transaction of Ionic or a listing on the ASX or equivalent. 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. 35 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Notes to the financial statements 30 June 2019 Note 11.

The licenses that were relinquished during the year were as follows E70/4807, E70/4874 and E70/4805. Accounting policy for exploration and evaluation assets Exploration and evaluation expenditure in relation to separate areas of interest for which rights of tenure are current is carried forward as an asset in the statement of financial position where it is expected that the expenditure will be recovered through the successful development and exploitation of an area of interest, or by its sale; or exploration activities are continuing in an area and activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable estimate of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves. Where a project or an area of interest has been abandoned or other indicators of impairment exist, the expenditure incurred thereon is written off in the year in which the decision is made or the impairment event occurred.

On a show of hands every member present at a meeting in person or by proxy shall have one vote and upon a poll each share shall have one vote. Capital risk management The consolidated entity's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. Capital is regarded as total equity, as recognised in the statement of financial position, plus net debt. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the consolidated entity may, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. The consolidated entity would look to raise capital when an opportunity to invest in a business or company was seen as value adding relative to the company's current share price at the time of the investment. The entity does not have a defined share buy-back plan. There is no current intention to incur debt funding on behalf of the company as on-going exploration expenditure will be funded via equity or joint ventures with other companies. The consolidated entity is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. Management reviews management accounts on a monthly basis and reviews actual expenditure against budget on a quarterly basis. The capital risk management policy remains unchanged from the 30 June 2018 Annual Report. Accounting policy for issued capital 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. 38 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Notes to the financial statements 30 June 2019 Note 15.

Financial instruments Financial risk management objectives The consolidated entity's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign currency risk, price risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The consolidated entity's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the consolidated entity. The consolidated entity uses different methods to measure different types of risk to which it is exposed. These methods include sensitivity analysis in the case of interest rate, foreign exchange and other price risks, ageing analysis for credit risk and beta analysis in respect of investment portfolios to determine market risk. Risk management is carried out by senior finance executives ('finance') under policies approved by the Board of Directors ('the Board'). These policies include identification and analysis of the risk exposure of the consolidated entity and appropriate procedures, controls and risk limits. Finance identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks within the consolidated entity's operating units. Finance reports to the Board on a monthly basis. Market risk Foreign currency risk The consolidated entity is not exposed to foreign currency risk. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised financial assets and financial liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the entity's functional currency. The risk is measured using sensitivity analysis and cash flow forecasting. Price risk The consolidated entity is exposed to price risk in relation to the shares that it holds in other listed entities.

The consolidated entity has a strict code of credit, including obtaining agency credit information, confirming references and setting appropriate credit limits. The consolidated entity obtains guarantees where appropriate to mitigate credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date to recognised financial assets is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to the financial statements. The consolidated entity does not hold any collateral. The consolidated entity has adopted a lifetime expected loss allowance in estimating expected credit losses to trade receivables through the use of a provisions matrix using fixed rates of credit loss provisioning. These provisions are considered representative across all customers of the consolidated entity based on recent sales experience, historical collection rates and forward-looking information that is available. Generally, trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators of this include the failure of a debtor to engage in a repayment plan, no active enforcement activity and a failure to make contractual payments for a period greater than 1 year. Liquidity risk Vigilant liquidity risk management requires the consolidated entity to maintain sufficient liquid assets (mainly cash and cash equivalents) and available borrowing facilities to be able to pay debts as and when they become due and payable. The consolidated entity manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves and available borrowing facilities by continuously monitoring actual and forecast cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. Remaining contractual maturities The following tables detail the consolidated entity's remaining contractual maturity for its financial instrument liabilities. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the financial liabilities are required to be paid. The tables include both interest and principal cash flows disclosed as remaining contractual maturities and therefore these totals may differ from their carrying amount in the statement of financial position.

These obligations, which may be varied from time to time and which are subject to renegotiation upon expiry of the lease are not provided for in the financial report and are payable. Within the mineral industry it is common practice for companies to farm-out, transfer or sell a portion of their exploration rights to third parties or to relinquish some exploration and mining tenements altogether, and as a result obligations will be significantly reduced or extinguished altogether. The farm-in partners also expended funds on the permits during the year which can result in work programs for certain years being met. Note 21.

The options are non-dilutive as the consolidated entity has generated a loss for the year. As at 30 June 2019, the consolidated entity had 62,500,000 (2018: 84,000,000) unlisted options on issue, which are exercisable at $0.01 (1 cent) per option expiring on or before 28 November 2020. These options have not been included in the above calculation as explained above. Accounting policy for earnings per share Basic loss per share Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of Strategic Energy Resources Limited, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial year. Diluted loss per share Diluted loss per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic loss per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.

A total of 62,500,000 options were granted to Directors during 2018 financial year, all of which vested immediately. The total share based payment expenses of $290,648 was recognised during 2018 financial year. Accounting policy for share-based payments Equity-settled and cash-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees. Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, or options over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for the rendering of services. Cash-settled transactions are awards of cash for the exchange of services, where the amount of cash is determined by reference to the share price. The cost of equity-settled transactions are measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined using either the Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing 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. The cost of cash-settled transactions is initially, and at each reporting date until vested, determined by applying either the Binomial or Black-Scholes option pricing model, taking into consideration the terms and conditions on which the award was granted. The cumulative charge to profit or loss until settlement of the liability is calculated as follows: ● during the vesting period, the liability at each reporting date is the fair value of the award at that date multiplied by the expired portion of the vesting period. from the end of the vesting period until settlement of the award, the liability is the full fair value of the liability at the reporting date. ● All changes in the liability are recognised in profit or loss. The ultimate cost of cash-settled transactions is the cash paid to settle the liability. 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. 47 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Notes to the financial statements 30 June 2019 Note 28. Share-based payments (continued) 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. 48 For personal use only Strategic Energy Resources Limited Directors' declaration 30 June 2019 In the Directors' opinion: ● ● ● ● the attached financial statements and notes comply with the Corporations Act 2001, the Accounting Standards, the Corporations Regulations 2001 and other mandatory professional reporting requirements; the attached financial statements and notes comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board as described in note 2 to the financial statements; the attached financial statements and notes give a true and fair view of the consolidated entity's financial position as at 30 June 2019 and of its performance for the financial year ended on that date; and there are reasonable grounds to believe that the company will be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable.
