Chairman and Managing 
Director’s Review

Dear Fellow Shareholders

Welcome to your company’s 2021 Annual Report.

Superior Resources has enjoyed a year of substantial growth 
across our project portfolio, with a tripling of our market 
capitalisation during fiscal 2021. 

During the past year, our key focus has been on our emerging 
Steam Engine Gold Project in north-east Queensland, with the 
project showing compelling financial metrics at an early stage of 
defining the Mineral Resource.

Steam Engine picks up speed

In July 2020, the Board announced the start of drilling at 
Steam Engine, with a first phase, 2,500m RC and diamond 
core resource drilling program. The program aimed to support 
the completion of a Scoping Study and expand and upgrade 
the Mineral Resource at the project located 210km west 
of Townsville.

In September 2020, the first assays from the drilling 
program were announced and they showed significant gold 
mineralisation from both the Steam Engine and Eastern Ridge 
Lodes, which supported our confidence in the deposit.

With the positive results continuing at Steam Engine, in 
November 2020 the company launched a 3,000m, second 
phase RC drilling program to further expand and upgrade the 
Mineral Resource.

This led to December’s announcement of a revised Mineral 
Resource Estimate, comprising 1.6 million tonnes (Mt) at 
2.2 g/t gold for 112,000 oz. The 19% increase in total gold 
ounces was very positive, particularly amid high prices for the 
precious metal.

Our momentum continued into the new year, with Superior 
announcing spectacular results of up to 184 g/t Au from the 
phase two assays. Further strong results were reported in 
February, highlighting the project’s potential.

In March 2021, Superior again upgraded Steam Engine’s 
Mineral Resource estimate to 1.73 Mt @ 2.2 g/t Au for 122,000 
oz, with a 31% increase in the JORC Measured and Indicated 
Resources and 9% rise in total contained gold.

A Scoping Study released in April 2021 showed a viable 
financial and technical case for a near-term, low capex open pit 
mining and toll treatment operation, based on mining 65% of the 
total estimated Mineral Resource to recover 70,000 oz gold.

Base-case economic modelling indicated that the project could 
deliver post-tax, life of mine cash flow of $24.4 million over a 
21-month period of mining, based on an assumed gold price 
of A$2,200 per oz. At A$2,500 per oz, the post-tax cash flow is 
estimated to jump to $41 million.

These positive results led the company to immediately 
commence a Feasibility Study, along with further metallurgical 
test work and drilling programs aimed at expanding the Mineral 
Resource, including a maiden drilling program at the Dinner 
Creek Lode.

Importantly, Steam Engine is seen underpinning a greater 
Greenvale Project encompassing copper, gold and 
nickel, with potential to support a centralised standalone 
processing operation.

8,000m drilling program launched at Greenvale

Capitalising on strong market momentum and investor support, 
in June 2021 the Board committed to a fully funded, 8,000m 
drilling campaign at Greenvale, focused on Steam Engine, the 
Bottletree Copper Prospect and Wyandotte Copper Deposit.

Copper has captured market attention in 2021 and it is here 
where the Board identifies our greatest potential for value 
growth. Together with deep drilling at Bottletree, the company 
aims to deliver by calendar year-end up to two JORC compliant 
copper Mineral Resource estimates, one at Wyandotte and the 
other at the larger Cockie Creek Copper Prospect.

ANNUAL REPORT 2021CHAIRMAN & MANAGING DIRECTOR’S REVIEW

Nickel has also found favour with investors thanks to the global 
electrification thematic. During the course of 2020, the Board 
initiated its nickel strategy by securing Queensland's most 
prospective nickel sulphide district. This area happens to be 
immediately adjacent to the company's Greenvale Project 
tenements and includes our new Dido, Phantom Creek and 
Arthur Range tenements. 

In 2022, Superior aims to further advance its Big Mag and the 
new nickel tenements, which are seen as highly prospective 
for Voiseys Bay-style Ni-Cu-PGE magmatic sulphide ore 
deposit systems.

Post-balance date, on 17 September the company announced 
the commencement of diamond drilling at Bottletree, considered 
our most exciting large-scale copper prospect, and located just 
5km from Steam Engine.

A two-stage, 2,300m program is planned targeting an untested 
core of a large, intense induced polarisation (IP) chargeability 
anomaly, with 3-D modelling indicates the potential for a major 
copper ore body.

Standout results have also continued at Steam Engine, including 
a near-surface intersection of 1m averaging 115.2 g/t Au.

Investor support

Superior’s fully funded drilling campaign would not have been 
possible without the support of investors. 

In July 2020, the company completed a successful $1.18 million 
capital raising comprising both a placement and non-
renounceable rights issue, with the funding primarily supporting 
Steam Engine’s development.

Recently, in September 2021 the company completed an 
oversubscribed placement raising $1.258 million to fund a 
5,000m extension to the original drilling program at Steam 
Engine and additional work at Bottletree.

The company thanks both longstanding and newer 
shareholders for their support, as we work to deliver more 
exciting progress from our project portfolio.

In the near term, with Steam Engine advancing rapidly 
both in terms of progress towards mining and expansion 
of its Resources, the project is showing promise as being 
a foundation to support the development of Greenvale's 
copper potential.

Copper is the main event at Greenvale. With potential access 
to clean and green power thanks to Genex Power’s Kidston 
project, there is an opportunity for Superior to become a 
low carbon producer of the minerals needed for the world’s 
electrification drive.

Superior has also advanced its marketing activities, with 
the launch of a new company website (https://www.
superiorresources.com.au/) and presentations by our Managing 
Director to investors at resource industry and other events. 
Please subscribe via our homepage for the latest updates from 
the company.

As we look ahead to 2022, the opportunities are enormous for 
your company and we look forward to maximising value from 
successful exploration campaigns.

Finally, thanks to all our shareholders, directors, employees, 
contractors and all others associated with the company in what 
has been a positive year of advancement for the company. We 
look forward to further progress in the year ahead.

ANNUAL REPORT 2021Steam Engine Gold Deposit

The Steam Engine Gold Deposit provides Superior with a 
strategic opportunity to realise signficant early cash flow, whilst 
also providing large scale deposit potential. This deposit 
contains at least two sub-parallel gold-bearing lodes, referred 
to as the Steam Engine Lode and the Eastern Ridge Lode. A 
third zone of sub-parallel mineralisation exists to the east of 
Eastern Ridge Lode (Dinner Creek Lode) and an area of gold 
mineralisation comprising multiple lodes (Southern Zone) is 
located between, and to the south of the Steam Engine and 
Eastern Ridge lodes.

The results of a Scoping Study for the mining and toll treatment 
of approximately 65% of the current Resource tonnes was 
finalised in April 2021.

The positive financial outcomes indicated by the study enabled 
the Company to immediately commence a Feasibility Study and 
mining lease application process.

Maiden drilling at the Dinner Creek Zone and Resource 
extension drilling at the Steam Engine Lode, totalling 
approximately 4,500m, commenced in June 2021.

Scoping Study and Revised Mineral Resource Estimate.

 „ The Scoping Study indicates a viable financial and technical 
case for a near-term, low CAPEX, open pit mining and toll 
treatment operation (Project), based on mining 65% of the 
current Resource tonnage to recover 70,000 ounces Au.

 „ Current total Mineral Resource comprises: 1.73 million 
tonnes at 2.2 g/t Au for 122,000 ounces1, including:

• Measured & Indicated: 850,000 tonnes @ 2.5 g/t Au 

(approx. 67,000 ounces)

• Inferred: 880,000 tonnes @ 1.9 g/t Au (approx. 

55,000 ounces)

 „ Base-case economic modelling indicates that the Project 

will deliver robust financial metrics:

• post-tax LOM cash flow of A$24.2M @ A$2,200 per 

ounce Au, 21-month period of mining, post-tax LOM cash 
flow of A$41.0M @ A$2,500 per ounce Au, 24-month 
period of mining;

• NPV7% (post-tax): A$21.2M @ A$2,200/oz Au; A$35.9M 

@ A$2,500/oz Au;

• IRR (post-tax): 242% @ A$2,200/oz Au; 410% @ 

A$2,500/oz Au

The Scoping Study is based on the March 2021 revised 
Mineral Resource estimate of 1.73 million tonnes at 2.2 g/t Au 
for 122,000 ounces of gold, which incorporated the results of 
the 2020 Resource definition drilling programs. An open cut 
mining and toll treatment operation was selected for the base 
case scenario for the study. Pit optimisation and mine planning 
exercises resulted in pit shells which are scheduled to mine 
1.1 million tonnes at 2.31 g/t Au to recover 70,000 ounces. This 
is equivalent to approximately 65% of the current Resource 
tonnage. A stand-alone gold mining and processing scenario 
was also examined, which highlighted a significant opportunity 
for substantially improved project economics in the event that the 
Mineral Resource is expanded.

The key financial outcomes from the Scoping Study are 
summarised in Table 1.

ANNUAL REPORT 2021Figure 2. Steam Engine Project conceptual site layout.

Dinner Creek Lode

Reconnaissance rock chip sampling of historically reported area 
of gold mineralisation during July identified a 1.2 kilometre long 
gossanous alteration zone located to the east of the Eastern 
Ridge Lode. 

Rock chip samples taken from the alteration zone returned 7.6 
g/t and 1.9 g/t gold, which complements historically reported 
rock chip assays of 4.3 g/t and 3.6 g/t gold.

The alteration zone potentially represents a newly recognised 
gold lode (Dinner Creek Lode) that is additional to the Steam 
Engine, Eastern Ridge and Southern Zone lodes. It was 
previously mapped by Pancontinental Resources during 1993 
to 1994. 

Field geological observations noted that gold-bearing rock 
outcrops at the Dinner Creek Lode appear to be a similar rock 
unit with similar alteration style to the Steam Engine Lode. The 
Dinner Creek Lode is notably thicker at surface compared to the 
Steam Engine and Eastern Creek lodes and is potentially longer 
in strike length.

Prior to Superior's drilling program in June, the Dinner Creek 
Lode had not been subjected to any modern or historical 
drilling, despite appearing at surface to be the longest and 
thickest lode zone.

Underground ore shoot system potential

Significant potential for the existence of a high-grade 
underground ore shoot system under the lodes was identified 
by the Company during the Mineral Resource re-modelling. The 
Company considers that such an ore shoot system is likely to be 
the feeder system responsible for gold mineralisation within the 
currently defined lodes, which in part are exposed at surface.

mapped surface geology and recent rock chip Au assay results

Exploration Work – 2021 Drilling Programs

An 8,000m drilling campaign commenced in June 2021 with 
maiden drilling of the Dinner Creek Zone. The program at the 
Steam Engine Project currently comprises:

 „ Dinner Creek: 

13 reverse circulation (RC) holes for approximately 
1,000m of drilling to confirm whether mineralised gold lode is 
developed at depth beneath the mapped gold-bearing lode 
at surface. If the results are positive, a follow up program will 
comprise an intense drill-out of the lode of up to 54 RC holes 
for 3,500m of drilling to define a maiden Mineral Resource 

 „ Expansion of the total Mineral Resource: 

• Down-dip and along-strike extension of the Steam Engine 

Lode – 8 RC holes for 1,275m of drilling; and

• Extension of high-grade ore shoots in Steam Engine 
Lode – up to 15 RC holes for approximately 2,000m 
of drilling.

The Company’s priority objective at Steam Engine is to fast-
track the Resource expansion drilling programs. Actual drilling 
may be expanded, depending on assay results that are received 
as drilling progresses.

SUPERIOR RESOURCES LIMITEDWyandotte

Big Mag

The Wyandotte Prospect is a shallow zone of high-grade copper 
mineralisation, which is potentially associated with a deeper 
intrusion-related or porphyry system.

Historic drilling has targeted the copper mineralisation. However, 
there has been insufficient drilling to estimate a reportable 
Mineral Resource.

A technical study of the existing data was undertaken 
during the year in order to establish an exploration target to 
determine whether potential exists for expansion of the copper 
mineralisation. Planning of a Resource definition drilling program 
was also completed.

Exploration Target

The historic work that has been conducted on the mineralised 
zone has been determined by Superior to be sufficient to 
enable the estimation of an Exploration Target that meets the 
requirements of clauses 17 and 38 of the JORC Code 2012, ASX 
Listing Rules 5.7, 5.12 and 5.16 and ASX Listing Rules Guidance 
Note 31.

The Company has defined an Exploration Target, expressed as 
a tonnage and grade range2.

Big Mag (EPM26751, Twelve Mile Creek) is characterised by a 
regionally large high-order magnetic anomaly considered to be 
related to the same series of rocks as the old Greenvale nickel 
mine. Largely unexplored, it is prospective for magmatic nickel-
cobalt-copper-PGE sulphide mineralisation.

Desktop data review, land access preparations and initial 
exploration program planning was conducted during the year on 
the Big Mag Prospect as well as the greater Greenvale Project 
area for its potential to host magmatic nickel sulphide deposits. 

Additionally, two new Exploration Permit for Minerals (EPM) 
applications were submitted (Dido and Arthur Range) covering 
substantial areas that are prospective for Voisey’s Bay style 
magmatic nickel-copper-cobalt-PGE deposits.

The Company is progressing a target generation program on 
the Big Mag and Dido prospect areas. This exercise will be 
substantially based on high quality aerial VTEM and magnetic 
survey datasets.

To date, the exercise has identified several anomalous target 
areas, including potentially mineralised magma feeder dykes 
and mafic-ultramafic ovoid intrusions identified at Big Mag.

Bottletree is a large soil copper anomaly. Previous drilling 
confirmed extensive copper mineralisation at depth. The limits 
to this large copper mineralised system have not yet been 
delineated and it remains open both laterally and at depth.

2021 Drilling Program

A total of 14 drill holes for 1,075m of drilling (30m to 150m drill 
hole depths) are designed to test the Exploration Target in the 
area of the historical drilling and also the potential for down-dip 
extensions of the copper mineralisation to approximately 100m 
vertical depth. The proposed holes will include four diamond 
core drill holes for up to 200m of diamond core drilling (40m to 
50m depths) with the remainder being RC drill holes.

The initial 8,000m Greenvale drilling campaign contemplates 
the drilling of all 14 planned holes at Wyandotte for a total of 
1,075m. Actual drilling may change as drilling progresses, 
depending on observations from recovered drill samples and 
assay results.

Geophysical remodelling of MIMDAS IP survey data acquired 
over the prospect by Superior in 2018 was completed during the 
year. A program of four deep diamond core drill holes targeting 
the core of the high chargeability anomaly was planned on the 
basis of the remodelled IP data.

2021 Drilling Program

The planned drilling program will target the central, expected 
high-grade copper core of the chargeability and resistivity 
anomaly with up to three diamond core holes. These holes are 
expected to intersect the high chargeability zone at between 
150m to 450m down-hole depth. A deeper and more extensive 
zone of the anomaly will also be targeted at between 400m and 
750m (down-hole depth) with one diamond core drill hole.

The current 8,000m Greenvale drilling campaign contemplates 
the drilling of all four planned holes at Bottletree for a total of 
2,100 metres. Actual drilling may change as drilling progresses, 
depending on observations from recovered core and assay results.

 Refer ASX Announcement dated 15 June 2021 for further information regarding the Exploration Target.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT (JORC, 2012)

Exploration Target: The Wyandotte Exploration Target has been calculated using historic drill hole and assay information by a 
Competent Person. The Exploration Target is reported in a form comprising a tonnage and copper mineralisation grade range. 
The Exploration Target does not constitute a Mineral Resource or Ore Reserve. The potential quantity and grade expressed 
by the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature as there has been insufficient exploration information to estimate a Mineral 
Resource. Furthermore, it is uncertain whether further exploration work will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource.

Hedleys Uranium 

Hedleys Uranium is a strong, localised airborne uranium 
radiometric anomaly (Figure 6) associated with a major fault 
(Figure 7). The anomaly has previously been considered to be 
an anomaly related to radon gas dissolved in spring waters and 
has not previously been drilled.

Superior’s work indicates that the source of the anomaly lies 
approximately 100 to 150m above the major unconformity 
between the sandstones and siltstones of the South Nicholson 
Group and the underlying carbonaceous siltstones of the 
Doomadgee Formation and the Mt Les Siltstone (Figure 8).

Cockie Creek

Cockie Creek is a large potential porphyry copper-gold 
mineralised system that extends for over 1.2 kilometres. Two 
large chargeability anomalies identified beneath the shallower 
copper mineralisation are yet to be drill tested. Modelling has 
opened up the potential of the area to host a significant porphyry 
copper deposit.

Nicholson Project

The Nicholson Project (EPM15670 and EPM18203), together 
with the Victor Project is located northwest of Mount Isa and 
provides the Company with opportunities to discover similar 
Mount Isa style zinc-lead-copper deposits with a portfolio of 
drill-ready targets. The projects are located in the Carpentaria 
Zinc Province, which contains 20% of the world’s zinc 
resource inventory. 

In the region immediately surrounding Mount Isa, rocks 
prospective for Mount Isa Style deposits are exposed at or 
close to surface and as a consequence, have been intensely 
explored. In contrast, the Company’s Nicholson and Victor 
projects are located in an equally prospective region that is 
relatively unexplored. These are the most likely areas within 
Queensland to make the next Mount Isa discovery. Exploration 
work completed to date has identified at least eight large high 
priority geophysical targets, each of which have potential to be 
caused by Tier 1-sized stratiform base metal deposits.

SUPERIOR RESOURCES LIMITEDA number of major uranium deposits in the Athabasca Basin 
of Canada and the Alligator River Region of Australia lie on or 
close to similar unconformities (between Proterozoic reduced 
crystalline rocks and overlying sandstones). Hedleys Uranium 
therefore warrants further work.

have caused the airborne uranium anomaly. Refer Figure 7 for the 
section location.

Victor Project

The Victor Project comprises four exploration permits for 
minerals covering a total area of 438 sq km. Work conducted 
by the Company indicates that stratigraphy prospective for the 
discovery of Mount Isa Style deposits is likely to be present 
under moderate sedimentary cover within the Project area. This 
area is relatively unexplored. 

Superior’s exploration strategy is based on the mechanism of 
geochemical “leakage” of key metals (lead, zinc and copper) 
from a deeper Proterozoic mineralised source into the younger 
sediments overlying the Proterozoic, which may be one of the 
best methods of targeting prospective areas for Mount Isa 
style deposits.

Company Background 

Superior  Resources  Limited  (Superior  or  the  Company)  is  a  Brisbane  based  ASX-listed  company 
(ASX:SPQ) exploring for lead-zinc-silver, copper, gold and nickel sulphide deposits in Australia. 

Superior currently holds a number of exploration permits and exploration permit applications in northern 
Queensland.  

In northwest Queensland, exploration for Mount Isa style deposits has resulted in Superior holding a first-
class  portfolio  of  properties  for  these  deposits.    Superior  has  an  expanding  portfolio  of  volcanogenic 
massive sulphide (VMS) and porphyry copper-gold, gold and magmatic nickel sulphide properties in the 
Greenvale area of north eastern Queensland with Mineral Resources defined for two properties. 

Corporate Philosophy 

Superior’s aim is to increase shareholder value through the discovery, development and acquisition of 
significant mineral deposits and the Board maintains a strategy consistent with this aim. 

Superior targets areas with potential for larger high-grade deposits of copper, lead-zinc-silver, gold and 
nickel sulphide. These include the large Mount Isa style projects in northwest Queensland and the high 
grade VMS deposits in northeast Queensland.  The Company also holds a developing portfolio of gold, 
nickel, cobalt and uranium projects within its northwest and northeast Queensland properties. 

More recently, Superior has commenced a program of assessment and development of its 100%-owned 
Steam Engine Gold Deposit and three advanced copper prospects at Greenvale. 

Superior has adopted a conceptual approach in its search for Mount Isa style deposits which identifies 
permissive  environments  for  these  deposits  and  then  explores  these  areas.    Models,  derived  from 
existing large mineral deposits, are an integral part of this approach.  Once a permissive environment is 
identified, Superior uses advanced exploration methods (particularly geophysics) with modern computer 
modelling of data to identify targets for further testing.  

While a conceptual approach is also appropriate to a search for Proterozoic gold and VMS copper-gold 
deposits, Superior has adopted the more traditional approach in its search for these types of deposits by 
exploring around existing indications of mineralisation.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT  

MATTERS SUBSEQUENT TO THE END OF THE FINANCIAL YEAR – (continued) 

Other than the above, no matters or circumstances have arisen since 30 June 2021 that have significantly 
affected, or may significantly affect: 

(a)
(b)
(c)

the Group’s operations in future financial years, or
the results of those operations in future financial years, or
the Group’s state of affairs in future financial years.

The impact of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is ongoing and while it has been financially positive 
for the Group up to 30 June 2021, it is not practical to estimate the potential impact, positive or negative, 
after the reporting date. The situation is continually developing and is subject to measures imposed by 
the  Australian  State  and  Federal  Governments,  such  as  maintaining  social  distancing  requirements, 
quarantine, travel restrictions and any economic stimulus that may be provided. 

LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS FROM OPERATIONS 

The Group is currently conducting a Feasibility Study on the prospects for mining and processing of gold 
ore from the Steam Engine Gold Deposit.  Based on the highly positive results of the recent Scoping 
Study and the general gold price forecasts, the Board considers that there are reasonable prospects of 
development of the deposit within the next two years. 

The likelihood of realising forward gold prices is difficult.  The actual price of gold at any point in the future 
depends on numerous foreseeable and unforeseeable factors. 

Results from exploration activities are difficult to predict in advance and are uncertain. 

REGULATORY MATTERS 

The  Group’s  operations  are  subject  to  substantial  and  significant  regulatory  control  under  various 
Queensland State and Commonwealth legislation.  Significant matters that are regulated include mining, 
environmental, native title and real property.  No matters of material concern have arisen in relation to 
regulatory control up to the date of this Report.

1.  General Information 

Superior Resources Limited (Company) is a company limited by shares, incorporated, and domiciled in 
Australia.  The Company’s shares are listed on the Australian Securities Exchange. 

The registered office and principal place of business of the Company is: 

Unit 8, 61 Holdsworth Street 
Coorparoo QLD 4151 
Ph 07 3847 2887 

The financial statements are for the Group consisting of Superior Resources Limited and its subsidiaries 
(the consolidated entity or the Group). 

2.  Significant Accounting Policies 

(a) 

Statement of compliance  

These  financial  statements  are  general  purpose  financial  statements  which  have  been  prepared  in 
accordance  with  the  Corporations  Act,  Australian  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  of  the 
Australian  Accounting  Standard  Board  and  in  compliance  with  International  Financial  Reporting 
Standards (‘IFRS’) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.  The Group is a for-profit 
entity  for  financial  reporting  purposes  under  Australian  Accounting  Standards.    Material  accounting 
policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are presented below and have been 
consistently applied unless stated otherwise. 

The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Directors on 27 September 2021.   

(b) 

Basis of preparation 

Except for cash flow information, the financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and 
are based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected 
non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities. 

(c) 

Principles of consolidation 

The consolidated financial statements incorporate all of the assets, liabilities and results of the Parent 
(Superior Resources Limited) and all of the subsidiaries (including any structured entities).  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 or controlled operations is provided in Note 26. 

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. 

The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the Group. 

Non-controlling  interests  in  the  results  and  equity  of  subsidiaries  are  shown  separately  in  the 
consolidated statement of profit or loss, statement of other comprehensive income, statement of changes 
in equity and statement of financial position, respectively. 

The accompanying notes form part of these financial statements.

2.  Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

(d) 

Revenue recognition 

Revenue is recognised 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.  Revenue is recognised when the performance obligations of a contract are satisfied. 

Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method.  This is a method of calculating 
the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using 
the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through 
the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. 

Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established. 

All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST). 

Government grants 

Government  grants  relating  to  costs  are  deferred  and  recognised  in  profit  or  loss  over  the  period 
necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate. Government grants are 
recognised when there are reasonable assurance that the funding conditions will be complied and the 
grants will be received. 

(e) 

Income Tax 

The  income  tax  expense  or  revenue  for  the  period  is  the  tax  payable  on  the  current  period’s  taxable 
income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax 
assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses. 

Deferred  income  tax  is  provided  in  full,  using  the  liability  method,  on  temporary  differences  arising 
between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements.  
However, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or 
liability  in  a  transaction  other  than  a  business  combination  that  at  the  time  of  the  transaction  affects 
neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss.  Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and 
laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the reporting date and are expected to apply 
when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled. 

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it 
is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax 
assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority.  Current 
tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends 
either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liability simultaneously. 

Current  and  deferred  tax  is  recognised  in  profit  or  loss,  except  to  the  extent  that  it  relates  to  items 
recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.  In this case, the tax is also recognised 
in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively. 

(f) 

Cash and cash equivalents 

For the consolidated statement of cash flows presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents includes 
cash  on  hand  and  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, and bank overdrafts.

(g) 

Financial instruments 

Initial Recognition and Measurement 

Financial  assets  and  financial  liabilities  are  recognised  when  the  Group  becomes  a  party  to  the 
contractual provisions of the financial instrument.  Financial assets will be recognised on the date that 
the Group becomes contractually bound to the relevant asset purchase or sale  transaction (i.e. trade 
date accounting is adopted). 

Financial instruments (except for trade receivables) are initially measured at fair value plus transaction 
costs,  except  where  the  instrument  is  classified  "at  fair  value  through  profit  or  loss",  in  which  case 
transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately.  Where available, quoted prices in an active 
market are used to determine fair value.  In other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted. 

Trade receivables are initially measured at the transaction price if the trade receivables do not contain a 
significant financing component or if the practical expedient was applied as specified in paragraph 63 of 
AASB 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers. 

Classification and Subsequent Measurement 

Financial assets 

Financial assets are subsequently measured at: 

•  amortised cost; 
• 
• 

fair value through other comprehensive income; or 
fair value through profit and loss. 

Measurement is on the basis of the two primary criteria, being: 

• 
• 

the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset; and 
the business model for managing the financial assets. 

A financial asset that meets the following conditions is subsequently measured at amortised cost: 

• 
• 

the financial asset is managed solely to collect contractual cash flows; and 
the contractual terms within the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are solely payments 
of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding on specified dates. 

A financial asset that meets the following conditions is subsequently measured at fair value through other 
comprehensive income: 

• 

• 

the contractual terms within the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are solely payments 
of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding on specified dates; and 
the  business  model  for  managing  the  financial  assets  comprises  both  contractual  cash  flows 
collection and the selling of the financial asset. 

By default, all other financial assets that do not meet the measurement conditions of amortised cost and 
fair value through other comprehensive income are subsequently measured at fair value through profit 
or loss.

2.  Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

Financial liabilities 

Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at: 

•  amortised cost; or 
• 

fair value through profit and loss. 

A financial liability is measured at fair value through profit and loss if the financial liability is: 

•  a contingent consideration of an acquirer in a business combination to which AASB 3 Business 

Combinations applies; 

•  held for trading; or 
• 

initially designated as at fair value through profit or loss. 

All  other  financial  liabilities  are  subsequently  measured  at  amortised  cost  using  the  effective  interest 
method. 

Equity instruments 

At  initial  recognition,  as  long  as  the  equity  instrument  is  not  held  for  trading  and  not  a  contingent 
consideration recognised by an acquirer in a business combination to which AASB 3 applies, the Group 
made an irrevocable election to measure any subsequent changes in fair value of the equity instruments 
in other comprehensive income, while the dividend revenue received on underlying equity instruments 
investment will still be recognised in profit or loss. 

Regular  way  purchases  and  sales  of  financial  assets  are  recognised  and  derecognised  at  settlement 
date in accordance with the Group’s accounting policy. 

Derecognition  

Derecognition refers to the removal of a previously recognised financial asset or financial liability from 
the statement of financial position. 

Derecognition of financial liabilities 

A liability is derecognised when it is extinguished (i.e. when the obligation in the contract is discharged, 
cancelled  or  expires).    An  exchange  of  an  existing  financial  liability  for  a  new  one  with  substantially 
modified  terms  or  a  substantial  modification  to  the  terms  of  a  financial  liability,  is  treated  as  an 
extinguishment of the existing liability and recognition of a new financial liability. 

The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration 
paid and payable, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit 
or loss. 

Derecognition of financial assets 

A financial asset is derecognised when the holder's contractual rights to its cash flows expires, or the 
asset is transferred in such a way that all the risks and rewards of ownership are substantially transferred. 

All the following criteria need to be satisfied for derecognition of financial assets: 

the right to receive cash flows from the asset has expired or been transferred; 

• 
•  all risk and rewards of ownership of the asset have been substantially transferred; and 
• 

the Group no longer controls the asset (i.e. no practical ability to make unilateral decision to sell 
the asset to a third party).

Financial liabilities 

Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at: 

•  amortised cost; or 

• 

fair value through profit and loss. 

A financial liability is measured at fair value through profit and loss if the financial liability is: 

•  a contingent consideration of an acquirer in a business combination to which AASB 3 Business 

Combinations applies; 

•  held for trading; or 

• 

initially designated as at fair value through profit or loss. 

All  other  financial  liabilities  are  subsequently  measured  at  amortised  cost  using  the  effective  interest 

method. 

Equity instruments 

At  initial  recognition,  as  long  as  the  equity  instrument  is  not  held  for  trading  and  not  a  contingent 

consideration recognised by an acquirer in a business combination to which AASB 3 applies, the Group 

made an irrevocable election to measure any subsequent changes in fair value of the equity instruments 

in other comprehensive income, while the dividend revenue received on underlying equity instruments 

investment will still be recognised in profit or loss. 

Regular  way  purchases  and  sales  of  financial  assets  are  recognised  and  derecognised  at  settlement 

date in accordance with the Group’s accounting policy. 

Derecognition refers to the removal of a previously recognised financial asset or financial liability from 

Derecognition  

the statement of financial position. 

Derecognition of financial liabilities 

A liability is derecognised when it is extinguished (i.e. when the obligation in the contract is discharged, 

cancelled  or  expires).    An  exchange  of  an  existing  financial  liability  for  a  new  one  with  substantially 

modified  terms  or  a  substantial  modification  to  the  terms  of  a  financial  liability,  is  treated  as  an 

extinguishment of the existing liability and recognition of a new financial liability. 

The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration 

paid and payable, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit 

or loss. 

Derecognition of financial assets 

A financial asset is derecognised when the holder's contractual rights to its cash flows expires, or the 

asset is transferred in such a way that all the risks and rewards of ownership are substantially transferred. 

All the following criteria need to be satisfied for derecognition of financial assets: 

• 

• 

the right to receive cash flows from the asset has expired or been transferred; 

•  all risk and rewards of ownership of the asset have been substantially transferred; and 

the Group no longer controls the asset (i.e. no practical ability to make unilateral decision to sell 

the asset to a third party).

2.  Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

Impairment 

The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on: 

• 

• 
• 
• 
• 

financial assets that are measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive 
income; 
lease receivables; 
contract assets (e.g. amount due from customers under construction contracts); 
loan commitments that are not measured at fair value through profit or loss; and 
financial guarantee contracts that are not measured at fair value through profit or loss. 

Loss allowance is not recognised for: 

financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss; or 

• 
•  equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. 

Expected credit losses are the probability-weighted estimate of credit losses over the expected life of a 
financial instrument.  A credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due and 
all cash flows expected to be received, all discounted at the original effective interest rate of the financial 
instrument. 

Recognition of expected credit losses in financial statements 

At each reporting date, the Group recognises the movement in the loss allowance as an impairment gain 
or loss in the statement of profit or loss. 

The carrying amount of financial assets measured at amortised cost includes the loss allowance relating 
to that asset. 

Assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are recognised at fair value, with 
changes in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income.  Amounts in relation to change in credit 
risk are transferred from other comprehensive income to profit or loss at every reporting period. 

For financial assets that are unrecognised (e.g. loan commitments yet to be drawn, financial guarantees), 
a  provision  for  loss  allowance  is  created  in  the  statement  of  financial  position  to  recognise  the  loss 
allowance. 

(h) 

Plant and equipment 

Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less depreciation.  Historical cost includes expenditure 
that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. 

Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost, net of their residual values, 
over their estimated useful lives, as follows: 

Equipment / Software: 

3 – 5 years 

The asset’s residual values and useful lives are reviewed and adjusted if appropriate at each balance 
date. 

An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying 
amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. 

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount.  These are 
included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.  When revalued assets are sold, it is the Group 
policy to transfer the amounts included in other reserves in respect of those assets to retained earnings. 

(i) 

Trade and other payables 

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the company prior to the end of 
the financial year which are unpaid.  The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of 
recognition.

or  sold.    The  realisation  of  the  value  of  the  expenditure  carried  forward  depends  on  any  commercial 
results that may be obtained through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest or 
alternatively by its sale.  If an area of interest is abandoned or is considered to be of no further commercial 
interest the accumulated exploration costs relating to the area are written off against income in the year 
of abandonment.  Some exploration expenditure may also be written off where areas of interest are partly 
relinquished and in cases where uncertainty exists as to the value, provisions for possible diminution in 
value are established. 

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 
capitalise costs in relation to that area.

Basic earnings per share 

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to equity holders of the

number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary 
shares issued during the year. 

Diluted earnings per share 

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to 
take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive 
potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for 
no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.

Goods and Services Tax (GST) 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST 
incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority.  In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of 
acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense. 

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable.  The net 
amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included with other receivables 
or 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 taxation authority, are presented as 
operating cash flows.

Employee benefits 

Short-term obligations 

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and accumulating sick 
leave,  which  are  expected  to  be  settled  within  12  months  after  the  end  of  the  period  in  which  the 
employees render the related services, are recognised in respect of employees’ services up to the end 
of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are 
settled.   The  liability for annual  leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits.   All other 
short-term employee benefit obligations are presented as payables. 

Other long-term employee benefit obligations 

The liability for long service leave and annual leave which is not expected to be settled within 12 months 
after  the  end  of  the  period  in  which  the  employees  render  the  related  services,  is  recognised  in  the 
provision for employee benefits and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be 
made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period.  Consideration 
is given to expected future wage and salary levels, employee departures and periods of service. 

Expected  future  payments  are  discounted  using  market  yields  at  the  end  of  the  reporting  period  on 
government bonds with terms and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future 
cash outflows. 

The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an 
unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, regardless of 
when the actual settlement is expected to occur.

2.  Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

(r)   Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities 

The Group measures some of its assets and liabilities at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring 
basis, depending on the requirements of the applicable Accounting Standard. 

Fair value is the price the Group would receive to sell an asset or would have to pay to transfer a liability 
in  an  orderly  (i.e.  unforced)  transaction  between  independent,  knowledgeable  and  willing  market 
participants at the measurement date. 

As fair value is a market-based measure, the closest equivalent observable market pricing information is 
used  to  determine  fair  value.  Adjustments  to  market  values  may  be  made  having  regard  to  the 
characteristics of the specific asset or liability.  The fair values of assets and liabilities that are not traded 
in an active market are determined using one or more valuation techniques.  These valuation techniques 
maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable market data. 

To the extent possible, market information is extracted from either the principal market for the asset or 
liability (i.e. the market with the greatest volume and level of activity for the asset or liability) or, in the 
absence  of  such  a  market,  the  most  advantageous  market  available  to  the  entity  at  the  end  of  the 
reporting period (i.e. the market that maximises the receipts from the sale of the asset or minimises the 
payments made to transfer the liability, after taking into account transaction costs and transport costs). 

For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement also takes into account a market participant’s ability 
to use the asset in its highest and best use or to sell it to another market participant that would use the 
asset in its highest and best use. 

The fair value of liabilities and the entity’s own equity instruments (excluding those related to share-based 
payment  arrangements)  may  be  valued,  where  there  is  no  observable  market  price  in  relation  to  the 
transfer  of  such  financial  instruments,  by  reference  to  observable  market  information  where  such 
instruments are held as assets.  Where this information is not available, other valuation techniques are 
adopted and, where significant, are detailed in the respective note to the financial statements. 

(s)  

Impairment of Assets  

At  the  end  of  each  reporting  period,  the  Group  assesses  whether  there  is  any  indication  that  a  non-
financial asset may be impaired.  The assessment will include the consideration of external and internal 
sources  of  information  including  dividends  received  from  subsidiaries,  associates  or  joint  ventures 
deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits.  If such an indication exists, an impairment test is carried out 
on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value 
less costs of disposal and value in use, to the asset’s carrying amount.  Any excess of the asset’s carrying 
amount over its recoverable amount is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the asset is carried 
at  a  revalued  amount  in  accordance  with  another  Standard  (for  example  in  accordance  with  the 
revaluation model  in  AASB 116: Property,  Plant  and  Equipment).   Any impairment  loss of  a revalued 
asset is treated as a revaluation decrease in accordance with that other Standard. 

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates 
the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. 

Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill, intangible assets with indefinite lives and intangible 
assets not yet available for use. 

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating 
unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying 
amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss 
been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss 
is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in 
which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

(t)  

Coronavirus (Covid19) 

Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic 
has had, or may have, on the Group based on known information.  This consideration extends to the 
nature of the activities of the group including mineral exploration, capital raising, staffing and geographic 
regions in which the consolidated entity operates.  Other than as addressed in specific notes, there does 
not currently appear to be either any significant impact upon the financial statements or any significant 
uncertainties with respect to events or conditions which may impact the Group unfavourably as at the 
reporting date or subsequently as a result of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. 

3.  New and Amended Accounting Standards  

The Group 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. 

Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been 
adopted. 

There are no other standards that are not yet effective and that are expected to have a material impact 
on  the  consolidated  entity  in  the  current  or  future  reporting  periods  and  on  foreseeable  future 
transactions.  

4.  Financial Risk Management 

The  Group’s  overall  risk  management  plan  seeks  to  minimise  potential  risks  resulting  from  the 
unpredictability of financial markets. 

The Group does not actively engage in the trading of financial assets for speculative purposes nor does 
it  write  options.    The  most  significant  financial  risks  to  which  the  Group  are  exposed  are  credit  risk, 
liquidity risk, market risk and cash flow interest rate risk. 

2.  Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

(r)   Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities 

The Group measures some of its assets and liabilities at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring 

basis, depending on the requirements of the applicable Accounting Standard. 

Fair value is the price the Group would receive to sell an asset or would have to pay to transfer a liability 

in  an  orderly  (i.e.  unforced)  transaction  between  independent,  knowledgeable  and  willing  market 

participants at the measurement date. 

As fair value is a market-based measure, the closest equivalent observable market pricing information is 

used  to  determine  fair  value.  Adjustments  to  market  values  may  be  made  having  regard  to  the 

characteristics of the specific asset or liability.  The fair values of assets and liabilities that are not traded 

in an active market are determined using one or more valuation techniques.  These valuation techniques 

maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable market data. 

To the extent possible, market information is extracted from either the principal market for the asset or 

liability (i.e. the market with the greatest volume and level of activity for the asset or liability) or, in the 

absence  of  such  a  market,  the  most  advantageous  market  available  to  the  entity  at  the  end  of  the 

reporting period (i.e. the market that maximises the receipts from the sale of the asset or minimises the 

payments made to transfer the liability, after taking into account transaction costs and transport costs). 

For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement also takes into account a market participant’s ability 

to use the asset in its highest and best use or to sell it to another market participant that would use the 

asset in its highest and best use. 

The fair value of liabilities and the entity’s own equity instruments (excluding those related to share-based 

payment  arrangements)  may  be  valued,  where  there  is  no  observable  market  price  in  relation  to  the 

transfer  of  such  financial  instruments,  by  reference  to  observable  market  information  where  such 

instruments are held as assets.  Where this information is not available, other valuation techniques are 

adopted and, where significant, are detailed in the respective note to the financial statements. 

(s)  

Impairment of Assets  

At  the  end  of  each  reporting  period,  the  Group  assesses  whether  there  is  any  indication  that  a  non-

financial asset may be impaired.  The assessment will include the consideration of external and internal 

sources  of  information  including  dividends  received  from  subsidiaries,  associates  or  joint  ventures 

deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits.  If such an indication exists, an impairment test is carried out 

on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value 

less costs of disposal and value in use, to the asset’s carrying amount.  Any excess of the asset’s carrying 

amount over its recoverable amount is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the asset is carried 

at  a  revalued  amount  in  accordance  with  another  Standard  (for  example  in  accordance  with  the 

revaluation model  in  AASB 116: Property,  Plant  and  Equipment).   Any impairment  loss of  a revalued 

asset is treated as a revaluation decrease in accordance with that other Standard. 

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates 

the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. 

Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill, intangible assets with indefinite lives and intangible 

assets not yet available for use. 

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating 

unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying 

amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss 

been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss 

is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in 

which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

Credit risk 

Credit risk is the risk of loss from a counterparty failing to meet its financial obligations to the Group. 

The maximum exposure to credit risk, excluding the value of any collateral or other security, at balance 
date  to  recognised  financial  assets  is  the  carrying  amount  of  those  assets,  net  of  any  provision  for 
expected credit loss, as disclosed in the consolidated statement of financial position and notes to the 
financial statements.   

Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents and deposits with banks and financial institutions.  For 
bank and financial institutions, only independently rated parties with a minimum rating of ‘A’ are accepted. 

The credit quality of financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired can be assessed by reference 
to external credit ratings (if available).

of  debtors  under  financial  instruments  entered  into  by  the  Group.    There  were  no  past  due  debts  at 
balance date requiring consideration of impairment provisions. 

(b) 

Liquidity risk 

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities to meet 
obligations when due.

5.  Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements 

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other 
factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the entity and that 
are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. 

Critical judgements in applying the entity’s accounting policies 

The Group has capitalised non-current exploration expenditure of $6,065,340 (2020: $4,457,027). 

This  amount  includes  costs  directly  associated  with  exploration.    These  costs  are  capitalised  as  an 
intangible asset until assessment of the permit is complete and the results have been evaluated.  These 
costs  include  employee  remuneration,  materials,  drilling  costs,  delay  costs,  rental  payments  and 
payments to contractors.  The expenditure is carried forward until such a time as the asset moves into 
the development phase, is abandoned or sold.  Given exploration activities have not yet reached a stage 
which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of recoverable resources and the 
difficulty in forecasting cash flows to assess the fair value of exploration expenditure, there is uncertainty 
as  to  the  carrying  value  of  exploration  expenditure.    The  ultimate  recovery  of  the  carrying  value  of 
exploration expenditure is dependent upon the successful development and commercial exploitation or, 
alternatively, sale of the Group’s interest in the tenements.

5.  Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements 

6.  Going Concern Principle 

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other 

factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the entity and that 

are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. 

Critical judgements in applying the entity’s accounting policies 

The Group has capitalised non-current exploration expenditure of $6,065,340 (2020: $4,457,027). 

This  amount  includes  costs  directly  associated  with  exploration.    These  costs  are  capitalised  as  an 

intangible asset until assessment of the permit is complete and the results have been evaluated.  These 

costs  include  employee  remuneration,  materials,  drilling  costs,  delay  costs,  rental  payments  and 

payments to contractors.  The expenditure is carried forward until such a time as the asset moves into 

the development phase, is abandoned or sold.  Given exploration activities have not yet reached a stage 

which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of recoverable resources and the 

difficulty in forecasting cash flows to assess the fair value of exploration expenditure, there is uncertainty 

as  to  the  carrying  value  of  exploration  expenditure.    The  ultimate  recovery  of  the  carrying  value  of 

exploration expenditure is dependent upon the successful development and commercial exploitation or, 

alternatively, sale of the Group’s interest in the tenements. 

Notwithstanding that the Group incurred an operating loss after tax of $569,583 (2020: loss of $461,100) 
and a net cash outflow from operating activities of $490,337 (2020: $255,614) these financial statements 
have been prepared on a 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 ability of the Group to continue as a going concern depends on one or more of the following: 

• 
• 

• 
• 

achieving sufficient future cash flows from operations to enable its obligations to be met;  
the success of cost saving initiatives, which  include entering into Joint Venture  arrangements 
and reducing tenement areas, so as to reduce the carrying and expenditure costs for tenements; 
cash flows from the sale of any of the Group’s assets; and 
obtaining additional funding from capital raising activities.  

The Directors acknowledge that to continue the exploration and development of the Group’s exploration 
projects, the budgeted cash flows from operating and investing activities for the future will necessitate 
further capital raisings. 

At the date of this Report and having considered the above factors, the Directors consider that the Group 
will be able to continue as a going concern and will be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due 
and payable. 

In the event that the Group is unable to satisfy future funding requirements, a material uncertainty would 
exist that would cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern with the result 
that the Group may be required to realise its assets at amounts different from those currently recognised, 
settle liabilities other than in the ordinary course of business and make provisions for costs which may 
arise as a result of cessation or curtailment of normal business operations. 

7.  Segment Information 

The Group operates solely within one segment, being the mineral exploration industry in Australia.

The investment in listed equity securities are stated at fair value.  AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement requires disclosure 
of fair value measurements by the level of the following fair value measurement hierarchy: 

1)  Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. 
2)  Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability. 
3)  Level 3 – Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data. 

The listed equity securities are traded in an active market, being the Australian Securities Exchange, and consequently 
they are measured as a Level 1 instrument on the fair value hierarchy.  The quoted market price, used to determine the 
value of these securities, is the bid price at balance date.

Capital risk management 

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, 
so that it can continue to provide returns for shareholders, benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain 
an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. 

The  capital  structure  of  the  Group  includes  cash  and  cash  equivalents,  equity  attributable  to  equity 
holders comprising of contributed equity, reserves, and accumulated losses.  To maintain or adjust the 
capital  structure,  the  Group  may  issue  new  shares,  sell  assets  to  reduce  debt  or  adjust  the  level  of 
activities undertaken by the Group. 

The Group monitors capital based on cash flow requirements for corporate overheads, exploration and 
evaluation expenditure.  The Group’s exposure to borrowings as at 30 June 2021 totals $nil (2020: $nil).  
The Group will continue to access capital markets and joint venture arrangements to satisfy anticipated 
funding requirements.  

The Group’s strategy to capital risk management is unchanged from prior years.

There are no contingent liabilities affecting the Group as at the date of this Report (2020: nil). 

So  as  to  maintain  current  rights  to  tenure  of  various  exploration  and  mining  tenements,  the  Group  is

Outlays expressed as “Exploration Expenditure Commitments” may be varied from time to time, subject 
to approval of the relevant government departments, and may be relieved if a tenement is relinquished 
or  certain  contractual  arrangements  are  entered  into  with  third  parties  (e.g.  a  farm-in  or  joint  venture 
arrangement).  Cash security bonds totalling $33,500 (2020: $32,500) are currently held by the relevant 
governing authorities to ensure compliance with granted tenement conditions.

Independent auditor’s report to the members 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report 

Opinion 
We have audited the financial report of Superior Resources Limited (the Company 
and its subsidiaries (the Group)), which comprises the consolidated statement of 
financial position as at 30 June 2021, the consolidated statement of profit or loss, 
consolidated statement of other comprehensive income, the consolidated 
statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the 
year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of 
significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the Directors’ 
declaration. 

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group, is in accordance 
with the Corporations Act 2001, including: 

(i)  

(ii)  

giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 
2021 and of its financial performance for the year ended on that date; and 

complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations 
Regulations 2001.  

Basis for Opinion  

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our 
responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s 
Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are 
independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence 
requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the 
Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics 
for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that 
are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled 
our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.  

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate 
to provide a basis for our opinion. 

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern 

We draw attention to Note 6 in the financial report, which indicates that the Group 
incurred a net loss after tax of $569,583 during the year ended 30 June 2021 and 
had net cash outflows from operations of $490,337. As stated in Note 6, these events 
or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 6, indicate that a material 
uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue 
as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Key Audit Matters  

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in 
our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of 
our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a 
separate opinion on these matters. 

CARRYING VALUE OF EXPLORATION COSTS 

Area of focus 

Refer also to note 14 

Capitalised exploration and evaluation assets represent 
over 77% of the Group’s total assets. The carrying value 
of exploration and evaluation assets is impacted by the 
Group’s ability, and intention, to continue to explore and 
evaluate these assets. The results of these 
activities then determine the extent to which it may or 
may not be commercially viable to develop and extract 
identified reserves. 

Judgement is required in evaluating management’s 
application of the requirements of AASB 6 Exploration 
for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources (“AASB 6”). 
AASB 6 is an industry specific accounting standard 
requiring the application of significant judgements, 
estimates and industry knowledge. This includes 
specific requirements for expenditure to be capitalised 
as an asset and subsequent requirements which must 
be complied with for capitalised expenditure to continue 
to be carried as an asset. 

Due to the significance of this asset and the subjectivity 
involved in determining its carrying value and 
recoverable amount, this is a key audit matter. 

How our audit addressed it 

Our audit procedures included: 

—  A review of the Directors’ assessment 

of the criteria for the capitalisation of 
exploration and evaluation expenditure 
and their assessment of whether there 
are any indicators of impairment to 
capitalised costs; 

—  Test the additions to capitalised 

expenditure for the year by agreeing a 
sample of recorded expenditure for 
consistency to underlying records, 
capitalisation requirements of the 
Group’s accounting policy and the 
requirements of AASB 6; 

—  Considering the Group’s intention and 
ability to continue activities necessary 
to support a decision to develop the 
exploration and evaluation assets, 
which included an assessment of the 
Group’s ability to fund such activities 
and a review of their future budgets; 

—  Performing an assessment of whether 
any indicators of impairment existed in 
line with requirements of Australian 
Accounting Standards, including a 
review of the integrity of tenement title 
status and total commitments value; 
and 

—  We assessed the adequacy of the 

Group’s disclosures in respect of the 
carrying value of exploration costs.

Other Information  

The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the 
information in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2021, but does not include the 
financial report and the auditor’s report thereon. 

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any 
form of assurance conclusion thereon.  

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information 
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial 
report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this 
other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. 

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report 

The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a 
true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 
and for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the 
financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to 
fraud or error.  

In preparing the financial report, the Directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to 
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the 
going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease 
operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report  

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free 
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes 
our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit 
conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material 
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, 
individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions 
of users taken on the basis of this financial report. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of these financial statements is located at the 
Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website at: 

https://www.auasb.gov.au/admin/file/content102/c3/ar1_2020.pdf

1.  Steam Engine Gold Deposit lies 500 metres south of the Gregory Development Road within EPM26165 “Cockie South”, 

approximately 210km west northwest of Townsville, Queensland, Australia.

2.  Competent person – Mineral Resources, Mr Kevin Richter (MAusIMM).

Steam Engine Prospect

Information in relation to the Steam Engine Gold Deposit Mineral Resource Estimate and related information were originally reported 
on the ASX Market Announcements Platform on 22 March 2021 (“Steam Engine revised Mineral Resource Estimate: JORC Measured 
and Indicated Resource upgraded by 31%”) and complies with the guidelines of the 2012 JORC Code. Other than drill assay results 
received after 22 March 2021, the Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information that materially affects the information 
as originally reported. All material assumptions and technical parameters on which the Mineral Resource Estimate is based, continue 
to apply and have not materially changed. The effect of drill sample assay results received after 22 March 2021 is a likely increase to 
the total Mineral Resources of the Steam Engine Gold Deposit. However, the degree to which the Mineral Resource is increased or 
decreased will not be known until a recalculation of the Mineral Resource Estimate is made.

Information contained in this report that relates to the Steam Engine Gold Deposit Mineral Resource Estimate is based on information 
compiled by Mr Kevin Richter, an employee of Superior Resources Limited, who is a Member of the Australasian Institute of Mining 
and Metallurgy. Mr Richter has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under 
consideration and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the 
‘Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves’. Mr Richter consents to the inclusion 
in this report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears.
