CHAIRMAN’S LETTER
Dear Shareholders
Following a year of substantial change during which Torian Resources Limited (Torian or the
Company) faced a number of corporate and financial challenges, your Company has emerged with a
leaner corporate structure and a strong platform on which to re-establish a future business for
Shareholders.
Whilst looking forward and continuing to drive Shareholder value remains our key focus, it is worth
outlining the key changes in the business in the last year, implemented to position the Company for
future growth:
1. The Board and Executive Management Team were restructured;
2. The corporate head office was relocated to lower cost premises;
3. Non-core landholding in Inverell was sold for A$110,000;
4. The portfolio of exploration projects in New South Wales were largely restructured and
relinquished which allowed for A$227,937 of deposits to be returned to the Company;
5. The sale of the Mining Leases at Copeton, New South Wales and Emerald, Queensland to
Elsmore Resources Limited (Elsmore) for $50,000 together with 1,428,760 fully paid ordinary
shares in Elsmore.
The new, streamlined corporate structure delivers a more sustainable financial position which has
enabled the Board of Directors to have a sharp focus on improving existing opportunities as well as
the identification of new opportunities. Beyond progressing the Vatovorona gold project in
Madagascar, Torian is targeting M&A opportunities which meet our financial and strategic hurdles.
The Company is currently reviewing and assessing a variety of projects which have may the capacity
and potential to deliver value for Shareholders.
To the Board of Directors and contractors who are central to the achievement of this aim, thank you
for your valued contribution and support through a difficult and changing environment. And, not
least, thank you to our Shareholders for your support during this difficult, but defining period in your
Company’s development. I am confident that your Company has turned the corner, and that the
start of the new year finds us better positioned to grow Shareholder value.
Yours faithfully
Nathan Taylor
Chairman

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
The Board of Directors of Torian Resources NL (“Company”) is committed to maintaining high
standards of Corporate Governance. This statement outlines the main Corporate Governance
practices that were adopted or in place throughout the financial year, which comply with the ASX
Corporate Governance Council recommendations, unless otherwise stated.
Roles of the Board and Management
Torian Resources has established the functions reserved to the Board as detailed in the Board
Charter which is published on the Company’s website.
The Board’s key objectives are to:
create an environment for employees, other contributors and stakeholders which engenders
trust, confidence, faith, loyalty and dedication to the interests and affairs of the Company;
increase shareholder value within an appropriate framework which safeguards the rights
and interests of the Company’s shareholders; and
ensure the Company is properly managed and operated with integrity.
The Board is also governed by the Company’s Constitution. The day to day management of the
Company’s affairs and implementation of corporate strategies and policy initiatives are undertaken
by the Board.
The Board reviews the performance of all staff and contractors periodically and at least annually.
The Chairman meets one-on-one with each staff member (if any) for the purpose of reviewing and
evaluating their performance in meeting key responsibilities and achieving objectives.
The Company currently has no employees.
Board Structure
The Board is comprised of four directors, all of whom are non-executive and none of whom are
independent. Given the Company’s background, the nature and size of its business and the current
stage of its development, the Board believes that this is both appropriate and acceptable at this
time. The skills, experience and period in office for each director are set out in this Annual Report in
the Directors’ Report and on the website.
The Board reviews its composition periodically and has the intention to appoint appropriate
independent directors as required.
The Chairman, Mr Nathan Taylor, is not independent but, due to his experience and expertise in the
areas the Company operates in, the Board considers he is suitably skilled to perform the role.
Nomination Committee
Torian Resources has established a Nomination Committee Charter which is available on the
Company’s website. However, the Company has not established a Nomination Committee at this
time due to the Company’s background, nature and size of its business and the current stage of its
development.
The Board reviews its composition periodically and at least annually to ensure that it has the
appropriate mix of expertise and experience. When a vacancy exists, for whatever reasons, or
where it is considered that the Board would benefit from the services of a new Director with
particular skills, the Board will select appropriate candidates with relevant qualifications, skills and
experience. External advisors may be used to assist in such a process. The Board will then appoint
the most suitable candidate who must stand for election at the next annual general meeting of
shareholders.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (CONT.)
For directors retiring by rotation, the Board assesses that director before recommending them for
re-election.
Board Performance
The Board has established a Board Performance Evaluation Policy which is published on the
Company’s website.
The Company believes it is important that the Board review its own performance and those of its
Committees (if any) with a view to achieving and maintaining a high level of performance. It will
meet periodically for the purpose of reviewing and evaluating its performance in meeting its key
responsibilities and achieving its objectives. As part of this review, the performance of the Board as
a whole, each Director and the Chairman will be assessed.
A Board review was not conducted in 2013. The Board has been focusing on recapitalising the
Company and has reviewed various options over the year which included the possible change in
direction of the Company. There has also been a change in directors during the year.
The Board chose to defer the review until a decision was made as to the future direction of the
Company, as the combination of directors and skills required would depend on the Company’s new
venture.
Access to External Resources
The Directors have access to external resources including independent professional advice, as
required to fully discharge their obligations as directors of the Company as detailed in the Board
Charter, published on the Company’s website. The use of this resource is co-ordinated through the
Chairman of the Board.
Code of Conduct
The Company is committed to its directors, employees and consultants maintaining high standards
of integrity, and ensuring that activities are in compliance with the letter and spirit of both the law
and Company policies.
Torian Resources has established a Code of Conduct which is available of the Company’s website.
Each staff member is issued with a copy of the Company’s Code of Conduct at the beginning of their
employment with the Company.
Diversity Policy
The Company is actively managing diversity as a means of enhancing the Company’s performance by
recognising and utilising the contributions of diverse skills and talent from its employees. It has
established a Diversity Policy which is published on the Company’s website.
The Company believes that the promotion of diversity on boards, in senior management and within
the organisation generally broadens the pool for recruitment of high quality directors and
employees; is likely to support employee retention through the inclusion of different perspectives, is
likely to encourage greater innovation; and is socially and economically responsible governance
practice.
The Board of Directors is responsible for adopting and monitoring the Company’s Diversity Policy.
The policy sets out the beliefs and goals and strategies of the Company with respect to diversity
within the Company. Diversity within the Company means all the things that make individuals
different to one another including gender, ethnicity, religion, culture, language, sexual orientation,
disability and age. It involves a commitment to equality and to treating one another with respect.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (CONT.)
The Company does not have any employees at this time.
The Board is small, comprising only four members, which the Directors feel is appropriate given the
Company’s background, the nature and size of its business and the current stage of its development.
There are currently no women on the Board.
Audit Committee
The Board has established an Audit Committee Charter which is available on the Company’s website
however the Company has not established an Audit Committee. All directors are responsible for the
integrity of the Company’s financial reporting and, given the size of the current Board, the directors
feel that there would be no efficiencies gained from a formal committee structure.
The Company will establish an Audit Committee when it is of the appropriate size and stage of
development to warrant a separate Audit Committee.
Continuous Disclosure
The Company has a formal Continuous Disclosure Policy which is published on the Company’s
website. The policy requires all executives and directors to inform the Chairman or, in his absence,
the Company Secretary, of any potentially ‘material information’ as soon as practical after they
become aware of that information.
Information is material if it is likely that the information would influence investors who commonly
acquire securities on the ASX in deciding whether to buy, sell or hold the Company's securities.
Material information must be disclosed to ASX immediately, unless ASX listing rules provide for non-
disclosure.
The Chairman is responsible for interpreting and monitoring the Company's disclosure policy and
where necessary informing the Board. The Company Secretary is responsible for all communications
with ASX.
Communication with Shareholders
The Company recognises the importance of regular and proactive interaction with the market in
order to ensure the Company’s investors remain fully informed about its activities.
The Company has established a formal Shareholder Communications Policy which is published on
the Company’s website.
Risk Management
The Board is responsible for the oversight of the Company’s risk management and control
framework. Responsibility for control and risk management can be delegated to the appropriate
level of management within the Company, with the Chairman, having ultimate responsibility to the
Board for the risk management and control framework.
Torian Resources’ Risk Management Policy is published on the Company’s website.
Remuneration Committee
The Company has a charter for a Remuneration Committee however a Remuneration Committee has
not been established at this time. Given the small size of the Board, the entire Board performs the
functions of the Remuneration Committee.
The Company outlines the structure of remuneration of non-executive directors and executives of
the Company in the Remuneration report in the Annual Report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2013
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial report includes the consolidated financial statements and notes of Torian Resources NL and
controlled entities (‘Consolidated Group’ or ‘Group’), and the separate financial statements and notes of Torian
Resources NL as an individual parent entity (‘Company’)
Basis of Preparation
The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian
Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the
Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001
Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a
financial report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions to which
they apply. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes
also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. Material accounting policies adopted in the
preparation of this financial report are reported below. They have been consistently applied unless stated
otherwise.
The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs, modified, where
applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial
liabilities.
Accounting Policies
a.
Principles of Consolidation
A controlled entity is any entity Torian Resources NL has the power to control the financial and operating
policies of so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 11 to the financial statements. All controlled entities have
a 31 December 2013 financial year-end for this current year.
As at reporting date, the assets and liabilities of all controlled entities have been incorporated into the
consolidated financial statements as well as their results for the year ended. Where controlled entities
have entered (left) the Group during the year, their operating results have been included (excluded) from
the date control was obtained (ceased).
All inter-company balances and transactions between entities in the Group, including any unrealised
profits or losses, have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been
changed where necessary to ensure consistencies with those policies applied by the Company.
Where controlled entities have entered or left the Group during the year, their operating results have
been included/excluded from the date control was obtained or until the date control ceased.
Minority interests, being that portion of the profit or loss and net assets of subsidiaries attributable to
equity interests held by persons outside the Group, are shown separately within the Equity section of the
Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and
Other Comprehensive Income.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2013
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)
b.
Income Tax
The charge for current income tax expense is based on the results for the year adjusted for any non-
assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using the tax rates that have been enacted or are
substantially enacted by the balance date.
Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences
arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial
statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability,
excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is
realised or liability is settled. Deferred tax is credited in the income statement except where it relates to
items that may be credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is adjusted directly against
equity.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be
available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.
Torian Resources NL formed an income tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime with
its domestic subsidiaries listed under Note 11.
c.
Plant and Equipment
Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable, any
accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets is depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives to
the Group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.
The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are:
Class of Fixed Asset
Office equipment and furniture
Plant and equipment
Motor vehicles
Buildings and improvements
Depreciation Rate
25%
25%
25%
2%
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance
sheet 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 the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in
the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2013
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)
d.
Exploration, Development and Evaluation Expenditure
Exploration, development and evaluation expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each
identifiable area of interest. These costs are only carried forward to the extent that they are expected to
be recouped through the successful development of the area or where activities in the area have not yet
reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable
reserves.
Currently the practice is to capitalise all expenses that have been incurred and are in direct relation to the
exploration of resources.
Indirect costs such as administrative and general operational costs will be expensed on the basis that
they are necessarily incurred.
Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit in the year in
which the decision to abandon the area is made.
When production commences, the accumulated costs for the relevant area of interest are amortised over
the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the economically recoverable reserves.
A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to
carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.
f.
Impairment of Assets
At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to
determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an indication
exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell
and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over
its recoverable amount is expensed to the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.
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.
g.
Investments in joint ventures
Investments in joint venture companies are recognised in the financial statements by applying the equity
method of accounting. The equity method of accounting recognised the Group’s share of post-acquisition
reserves of joint ventures.
i.
Employee Benefits
Provision is made for the Company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by
employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within one year have been
measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled. Employee benefits payable
later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows to be
made for those benefits. Those cash flows are discounted using market yields on national government
bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected timing of the cash flows.

j.
Equity-settled Compensation
There has been no equity based compensation with the exception of that described at Note 21. The
capital subscribed to as per this note was acquired at fair value at the time of purchase.
Options issues have their fair value determined with reference to an approved valuation methodology,
such as the Black-Scholes valuation method. On issue, the fair value of an option is taken to the Income
Statements equity settled compensation, with a corresponding credit to the options reserve. This is then
disclosed as other comprehensive income in the Statement of Comprehensive Income to show other net
profit position of the Group from a third party perspective.
Shares have their value determined using the direct method of share price at date of issue multiplied by
the number of shares issued.
k.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks and other short-term
highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
l.
Revenue and Other Income
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable after taking into
account any trade discounts and volume rebates allowed. Any consideration deferred is treated as the
provision of finance and is discounted at a rate of interest that is generally accepted in the market for
similar arrangements. The difference between the amount initially recognised and the amount ultimately
received is interest revenue.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at the point of delivery as this corresponds to the transfer
of significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods and the cessation of all involvement in those
goods.
Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method, which, for floating rate financial
assets, is the rate inherent in the instrument. Dividend revenue is recognised when the right to receive a
dividend has been established
Dividends received from associates and joint venture entities are accounted for in accordance with the
equity method of accounting.
m.
Finance
Finance costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily
take a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those
assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
All other finance costs are recognised in income in the period in which they are incurred.

n.
Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of
GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is
recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense.
Receivables and payables in the Statement of Financial Position are shown inclusive of GST.
Cash flows are presented in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis, except for the GST
component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows. There is
provision made in the Statement of Cash Flows to disclose the applicable GST refunds/payments that
have been remitted to the ATO to accurately show the cash position of Torian Resources NL.
o.
Comparative Figures
Comparative figures have been derived from the audited financial statements for Torian Resources NL
for the year ended 31 December 2012, and changes in presentation are made where necessary to
comply with accounting standards.
p.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments
The Directors evaluate estimates and judgments incorporated into the financial report based on historical
knowledge and best available current information. Estimates assume a reasonable expectation of future
events and are based on current trends and economic data, obtained both externally and within the
Group.
Key Estimates — Impairment
The Group assesses impairment at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the group that
may lead to impairment of assets. Where an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the
asset is determined. Value-in-use calculations performed in assessing recoverable amounts incorporate
a number of key estimates.
Key Judgments — Doubtful Debts Provision
As a result of no trading throughout the period, Torian Resources NL has no questionable receivables.
Key Judgments — Recoverability of Capitalised Exploration Assets
To date, Torian Resources NL has achieved results which have been verified through independent
reporting and testing. The capitalised exploration assets are therefore concluded to be fully recoverable
at balance date.
In the current year, the Group has adopted all of the new and revised current standards and
interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (the AASB) that are relevant to its
operations and effective for the current annual reporting period. The adoption of these new and revised
standards and interpretations’ has not resulted in changes to the group’s accounting policies.

been issued or amended and are applicable to the Company and Consolidated Group but are not yet

position in future periods.

r.
Going concern
The Directors have prepared the financial report on a going concern basis, which contemplates the
continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the
ordinary course of business.
For the financial year ended 31 December 2013, the Group incurred a net loss after tax of $10,577,409
(2012: loss $2,721,797). The Group generated negative cash flows from operating activities for the year
of $547,949 (2012: negative $768,940). The Group’s deficiency in net current asset position at 31
December 2013 was $629,797 (Company: $606,228) and its cash balance amounted to $273,723
(Company: $273,758) at that date.
The trade and other payables to third parties payable in cash at 31 December 2013 totalled $218,532 in
contrast to closing Cash and Cash Equivalents of $273,723.
On this basis the Directors have resolved the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as at 31
December 2013.
Additionally the Directors’ cash flow forecasts project that the Company and the Group will continue to be
able to meet their liabilities and obligations as and when they fall due for a period of at least 12 months
from the date of signing of this financial report. The cash flow forecasts are dependent upon the
generation of sufficient cash flows from operating activities, or the receipt of additional debt or equity
funds, to meet working capital requirements and the ability of the Group to manage discretionary
spending.
The Directors are of the opinion that the use of the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate as
they are satisfied as to the ability of the Company and the Group to implement the above.
The Directors continue to assess the financing and capital requirements of the Group. However, the
Directors have resolved that it is reasonably foreseeable that the consolidated group will continue as a
going concern and that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of the
financial report after consideration of the following factors:
i.
ii.
The ability of the consolidated group to undertake further capital raisings to provide the required
funding to meet the consolidated group’s ongoing operating costs; and / or
The recovery of deposit bonds from tenements that are in the process of being relinquished; and
/ or
iii.
The collection of sale proceeds from the disposal of real property in prior financial years.
The financial report does not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of
recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the
Company and the Group not continue as a going concern.

NOTE 9: TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES (CONT.)
Allowance for impairment loss
Trade receivables and other receivables are non-interest bearing and are generally on 30-60 day terms. A
provision for impairment loss is recognised when there is objective evidence that an individual receivable is
impaired. No impairment has been recognised by the Group and Company in the current year. No receivable is
past due.
Fair value and credit risk
Due to the short term nature of these receivables, their carrying value is assumed to approximate their fair value.
The maximum exposure to credit risk is the fair value of receivables. Collateral is not held as security, nor is it the
Group’s policy to transfer on-sell receivables to special purpose entities.
Interest rate risk
Detail regarding interest rate risk exposure is disclosed in Note 23.
NOTE 10: INVESTMENTS ACCOUNTED FOR USING THE EQUITY METHOD
In the 2010 financial year, the Company entered into the Madagascar Joint Venture with Varun Madagascar, a
division of Mumbai-listed company Varun Industries. This is a production sharing joint venture to mine both gold
and gemstones from two highly prospective adjacent exploitation (production) licences in Vatovorona,
Madagascar.
The joint venture has been in care and maintenance while the directors determine the best avenue to realise
value for shareholders.

NOTE 10: INVESTMENTS ACCOUNTED FOR USING THE EQUITY METHOD (CONT.)
Investments in joint venture companies are valued at fair value at year end, which is calculated as follows:
-
-
-
fair value of the investment at the beginning of the year (or, for acquisitions during the year, the fair
value of the investment on acquisition);
less equity accounted share of losses during the year;
less impairment losses during the year.
Any impairment losses during the year are calculated as the difference between:
-
-
the fair value of the investment at the beginning of the year (or, for acquisitions during the year, the fair
value of the investment on acquisition) less equity accounted share of losses during the year; and
the fair value of the investment calculated at year end using the last quoted bid price plus the value of
any options held, calculated using the assumptions set out below.

Ordinary shares participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up of the Company in proportion to the
number of shares held. At the shareholders meetings each ordinary share is entitled to one vote when a poll is
called, otherwise each shareholder has one vote on a show of hands.
Capital Management
Management controls the capital of the Group in order to maintain a good debt to equity ratio, provide the
shareholders with adequate returns and ensure that the group can fund its operations and continue as a going
concern.
The Group’s capital includes ordinary share capital, shares and financial liabilities, supported by financial assets.
There are no externally imposed capital requirements.
Management effectively manages the Group’s capital by assessing the group’s financial risks and adjusting its
capital structure in response to changes in these risks and in the market. These responses include the
management of debt levels, distribution to shareholders and share issues.

objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them. Further
quantitative information in respect of these risks is presented throughout these financial statements.
There have been no substantive changes in the Groups’ exposure to financial instrument risks, its objectives,
policies and processes for managing those risks or the methods used to measure them from previous periods
unless otherwise stated in this note.
The Board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Group’s risk management objectives and policies.
The Group’s risk management policies and objectives are therefore designed to minimise the potential impacts of
these risks on the results of objectives where such impacts may be material. The Board periodically reviews the
effectiveness of the process put in place and the appropriateness of the objectives and policies it sets.
The overall objective of the Board is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible. Further details
regarding these policies are set out below:

NOTE 23: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONT.)
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that the other party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge their obligation resulting in
the Group incurring a financial loss. This usually occurs when debtors or counterparties to derivative contracts fail
to settle their obligations owing to the Group. The Group does not have any material credit risk exposure to any
single receivable or group of receivables under financial instruments entered into by the Group.
The maximum exposure to credit risk at balance date is as follows:
Trade receivables
Security bonds
Deposits with government bodies
Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group may encounter difficulties raising funds to meet commitments associated
with financial instruments due to creditors. The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows
and ensuring that adequate unutilised borrowing facilities are maintained. The Group’s operations require it to
raise capital on an on-going basis to fund its planned exploration program and to commercialise its tenement
assets.
