Whilst my appointment of September 2021 supersedes the period of this report it is my responsibility and pleasure to present it to you. I have keenly followed the Breaker story for some years with my first interest in this area arising from a joint research study between Mawson Pacific and CSIRO in the late 1980’s focused on defining the Wilson’s Fault which at that time was postulated to be the next big deep-seated suture in the earth’s crust east of Kalgoorlie. At this time the legendary Geoff Stokes and Peter “Talkie” Newton had just discovered the Randall’s style mineralisation in the Mt Belches beds which now forms the backbone of our neighbour’s (Silver Lake) Salt Lake/Karonie Project. Nearly 30 years on it is most pleasing to see the emergence of this area beginning to take shape with substantial mineralisation spreading along the postulated Wilson’s Fault zone from Randall’s to east of Laverton. I’m excited to join Breaker as its new Chairman and help guide the Company through the mire that leads to the development of these significant discoveries made by Breaker and the creation of wealth they can bring to our shareholders. Looking at the year past, I have to acknowledge the extraordinary job that Tom Sanders and his wonderful exploration team have done. It may appear as a year of grind to shareholders but in my view substantial progress has been made and in-particular game changing discoveries of the deeper and primary high- grade drivers to the overall Bombora ore system has been made. It is my view that the significance of these and their impact on the overall Lake Roe Project will shine. No exploration company can survive without the support of its shareholders, those that back our teams in scientific discovery of metals and mineralisation and their vectors toward creating real wealth for their shareholders. I am confident we have a terrific team aligned to that objective and on behalf of our whole Board and our management team we humbly thank you for your support and continued support. As the new Chairman of the Company and speaking for and on behalf of the previous Chairman, Tom Sanders who now fills the role of Managing Director, I can assure you our whole team goes to work every day to do their absolute best for you with the greatest respect for your interests as shareholders. I refer you to the Directors’ Reports for detail on the Company’s results and outcomes over the past year. Yours faithfully, Peter Cook Non-Executive Chairman 2 Breaker Resources NL Review of Activities Review of Exploration Activities Project Location/Setting Breaker Resources NL’s (ASX:BRB; Breaker or the Company) core focus is on a new greenfields gold district, situated between two operating gold mines, 100km east of Kalgoorlie, Western Australia. The 100% owned 1.4Moz# Lake Roe Project is situated on the eastern margin of the Kalgoorlie-Kurnalpi Rift Zone. The margins of the Rift Zone are “high-flux” zones characterised by large gold deposits, strong deformation, steep metamorphic gradients, widespread, superimposed alteration episodes and abundant mantle-sourced intrusions (Figure 1; Witt et al. 2018). The 700km2 Lake Roe Project has good road and rail access from Kalgoorlie, and comprises one granted Mining Lease, ten Exploration Licences and one Exploration Licence application with 50km of prospective strike. Figure 1: Lake Roe Gold in relation to High Flux Zones in the Kalgoorlie-Kurnalpi Rift The main gold deposit at Bombora is a typical Archean lode gold deposit concealed by 5m-10m of transported cover. The closest geological analogy is the 62Moz Golden Mile deposit. Like the Golden Mile, the gold at Bombora occurs in three stacked mineralised fault (lode) orientations concentrated over a 150m-wide zone in the upper, iron-rich part of a fractionated (layered) dolerite. These deposits typically go to great depth. The shallow gold at Bombora starts 5m from surface and extends over 3km in a single open pit configuration. This creates a favourable setting for large open pit mining, assisted by a 150m-wide mineralised zone, and a high gold endowment of 4,000 to 5,000oz per vertical metre arising from a high concentration of lodes. 2020-2021 Overview It has been a successful 2020-21 reporting period and in the following months since. Breaker’s initial gold discovery at Bombora is now part of a 9km-long new gold district in a Tier 1 location with the noteworthy attributes of scale, grade and huge growth potential. This makes it a rare and highly desirable asset in an industry facing declining resources. Breaker completed a total of 50,977m of diamond and Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling in the 2020/2021 financial year comprising 14,293m of diamond drilling and 36,684m of RC drilling. 2021 Annual Report 3 Review of Activities Drilling is ongoing with two diamond rigs and one RC rig operating on a campaign basis depending on availability. The objective is to increase the Resource along strike and at depth and build the critical mass for a large new open pit and underground gold development. The 2020-2021 drilling program focused on discovery and material extension outside the Resource in three main areas within the 9km gold system at Lake Roe (Figure 2): diamond drilling to scope and start to establish the high-grade potential below the Bombora open pit Resource; the Crescent-Kopai discovery 3km north of Bombora; and the Claypan and Carbineer areas, east of Bombora. Figure 2: RC and Diamond Drilling colour-coded by Maximum Gold (g/t) on Aircore Maximum Gold Image and Aeromagnetics The 2020-2021 drilling program was successful in each targeted area leading to maiden Resources in each area1. In April 2021 an independent Mineral Resource Estimate by Optiro Pty Ltd (Optiro) 2 expanded the Lake Roe Resource by 40% to 1.37Moz#, including maiden estimates in the Bombora Underground, Crescent-Kopai, and Claypan areas. Mineralisation remains open in each area and the next Resource update is planned for late in the December 2021 quarter, or early in the March 2022 quarter. The April 2021 Resource update confirmed Bombora is part of a 9km gold system. High-grade extensional drilling results since then have established a clear path for further growth both along strike from Bombora and at depth. During the year we confirmed that the three lode orientations at Bombora are part of a regular network of kilometric-scale faults. This is significant because it not only de-risks future mining, but opens up the discovery potential in several new areas including at depth, at the Carbineer Prospect, at the Bombora South Prospect, and along the magnetite-rich margin of the syenite to the east of Bombora (Figure 2). Due to the large size of the underground target area at Bombora, the initial diamond drilling below the open pit Resource was undertaken on 320m-spaced sections, closing to 160m-spaced sections to pin down the location and extent of high-grade gold mineralisation. Infill drilling on 80m-spaced sections commenced in December 2020 and has since been generated strong, consistent multiple intersections, and upgrading the continuity of mineralisation in the process. 4 Breaker Resources NL Review of Activities Drilling below the northern part of Bombora identified a 2.2km-long, 150m-wide zone array of game- changing, high-grade stacked flat lodes that are still open to the north (Figures 3 to 4). Results includes: • • 9.15m @ 7.00g/t Au in hole BBDD0107W13 including 2m @ 26.15g/t from 558.85m; and 3.68m @ 10.58g/t Au in BBDD0107W14 including 2.88m @ 13.03g/t from 607m. Figure 3: Long Section Looking West Showing Main Lode Elements Figure 4: Bombora North: Perspective View of 2.2km-long Northern Flat Lode Array 2021 Annual Report 5 Review of Activities Recent diamond drilling below in the central part of the deposit encountered high-grade gold on the sub-vertical Tura lode, which now extends 900m down-plunge with excellent scope for extensions to the south (Figure 5). Recent diamond drilling has returned multiple high-grade intercepts, including:- • • 8.3m @ 16.8 g/t Au from 310m in hole BBDD01245 (estimated true width of 5.0m; Photo 1), and 6.8m @ 12.07g/t Au from 277m in hole BBDD01296 (estimated true width of 3.4m), including 3m @ 21.53g/t Au from 280m Figure 5: Long-section of Tura Steep Lode Looking West There is also the emerging potential of other steeply dipping lodes such as Daisy and Brigalow Mick, and the known potential of the strike-extensive west-dipping lodes like Quarries. The results at Bombora demonstrate clear potential for high-grade underground mining below a large, 3km-long, extensively de-risked open pit Resource, creating operational flexibility and signalling project longevity. Our objective to continue growing the Resource and develop a large, robust open pit and underground gold mine is well within sight. 6 Breaker Resources NL Review of Activities Photo 1: Top: Tura steep lode with visible gold circled in red, BBDD0124 from 317.43m to 317.62m, half core; Bottom: Tura steep with visible gold circled in red, BBDD0124 from 317.62m to 317.79m, full core Mineral Resource Overview The independent Mineral Resource estimate by Optiro resulted in a 40% increase in the Lake Roe Project Resource to 27.9 million tonnes at 1.5g/t Au for 1.37 million ounces (previously 0.98Moz @ 1.3g/t Au). 7 The Mineral Resource comprised new or updated estimates in four areas (Table 1): (i) Bombora Underground (maiden); (ii) Crescent-Kopai (maiden), located 2km north of Bombora; (iii) Claypan (maiden), located 1km southeast of Bombora; and (iv) Bombora Open Pit (update); Open Pit Resource Above 100mRL Bombora Crescent-Kopai Claypan Underground Resource Below 100mRL Bombora Total Bombora (Open Pit plus Underground) Cut-off Grade (g/t Au) Category Tonnes 0.5 0.5 0.5 Indicated Inferred Subtotal Inferred Inferred Total 15,443,000 2,286,000 17,729,000 2,818,000 2,082,000 22,629,000 Cut-off Grade (g/t Au) Category Tonnes 1.0 Indicated Inferred Total 809,000 4,484,000 5,293,000 23,022,000 Grade (g/t Au) 1.43 1.2 1.4 0.9 1.0 1.3 Grade (g/t Au) 2.58 2.4 2.4 1.6 Lake Roe Mineral Resource Grand Total 27,922,000 1.5 Ounces Au % Indicated 711,000 92,000 803,000 86,000 67,000 956,000 89% 74% Ounces Au % Indicated 67,000 347,000 414,000 1,217,000 1,370,000 16% 64% 57% Table 1: Lake Roe Mineral Resource Figure 6: Oblique View of all Mineralisation Wireframes at Bombora Red = steep lodes, Green = flat lodes, Blue = west lodes 2021 Annual Report 7 Review of Activities Optiro’s resource model was based on an independent-interpretation and wireframe modelling of the three lode types (steep, flat and west-dipping) guided by structural data from orientated drill core (Figures 6 to 8). The plan width of mineralised zones ranges from 2m to 15m for the steep lodes, up to ~150m for flat lying lodes and 1m to 10m for west-dipping lodes. Gold extends to at least 800m below surface, the deepest intersection to date. Sixty one percent of the 389koz increase in contained gold (236koz)8 is from new high-grade lodes discovered below the Bombora open pit Resource. The maiden underground Resource at Bombora of 414,000oz, includes 187,000oz @ 4.8g/t Au (2g/t Au cut-off)9, confirming high-grade potential that is still growing based on strong drilling results following the April 2021 Resource estimate. Thirty nine percent of the 389koz increase in contained gold (153koz) is from maiden estimates at the Crescent-Kopai (86koz) and Claypan (67koz) deposits10. The reporting boundary between the open pit and underground Resource was adjusted 100m upwards to 100mRL (210m from surface). Reported in the same way as the 2 September 2019 open pit Resource update (above 0mRL), the open pit component of the Resource is within 1% of the previous, which used a more geostatistical approach (multiple indicator kriging). Figure 7: North-South Long Section Looking West, Showing New Drill Holes (yellow) at Bombora Used for Resource Figure 8: Cross-section 6602120N showing Flat, Steep and West-dipping Lodes 8 Breaker Resources NL Review of Activities Crescent-Kopai Deposit The Crescent-Kopai deposit is located 2km to the north of Bombora. Gold mineralisation occurs over a 1,700m by 300m area on the northern extension of the eastern branch of the Claypan Shear (Figure 2). Gold is hosted mainly by dolerite and basalt and occurs within 1m--20m thick, flat-lying mineralised fault zones. Mineralisation is accompanied by quartz veining and silica, albite and pyrite alteration. The Mineral Resource starts at 10m below surface (base of cover) and extends to 160m below surface (maximum drill depth). The main objective of the 2020-2021 RC and minimal diamond drilling was to establish the areal extent and nature of the mineralisation on a 40m x 20m drill pattern. The results indicate a significant satellite deposit that is still growing. Mineralisation is open to the west, south and east. Several zones of higher grade shallow north-plunging ore shoots have been identified and follow-up drilling to target these structures is planned. Claypan Deposit The Claypan deposit is located 1km southeast of Bombora, near the eastern branch of the Claypan Shear, adjacent to the Swan Lake Syenite (Figure 2). Gold occurs in a flat, gently north-plunging mineralised shear over a 700m x 600m area. The Mineral Resource starts at 20m below the surface (base of cover) and extends to ~120m below the surface. Drilling is at a preliminary level on a nominal drill spacing of 200m x 80m and comprises two drill lines with reconnaissance intersections along strike. Gold in the flat, north-plunging mineralised faults is accompanied by shearing with variable amounts of quartz veining, and silica, biotite, chlorite and pyrite alteration. The on-section width of mineralisation ranges from 2m to 15m. The host rocks consist of a mixed package of steeply dipping basalt and dolerite with subordinate sediment and localised lamprophyre intrusions. Mineralisation is open in all directions and selective drilling is planned to assess the potential for accompanying west-dipping lodes, and to test the projected extensions of the mineralisation into the magnetite-bearing syenite contact to the immediate east. Carbineer Prospect The Carbineer Prospect is located 400m-700m east of the Bombora deposit along the west-dipping Quarries Fault, adjacent to the eastern branch of the Claypan Shear Zone (Figure 2). Gold was identified in a structural repetition of the Bombora dolerite in mid-2020. Previous intersections include 45m @ 1.64g/t Au and 3.15m @ 4.57g/t Au11. Eleven reconnaissance RC drill holes were completed on a 200m x 80m spacing to pinpoint the gold- prospective quartz dolerite in preparation for follow-up drill targeting. The drilling returned wide, anomalous zones up to 2.54g/t Au 12, confirming 1km of mineralised strike potential. Mineralisation is associated with the west-dipping Quarries Fault corridor and includes (associated) flat structures as at Bombora. RC infill drilling is planned at Carbineer to quantify the resource potential. Syenite Target The magnetite-altered contact of the Swan Lake Syenite 700m to the east of Bombora is prospective for Wallaby-style (syenite-associated) gold mineralisation. This potential is supported by widespread gold, silver, tungsten and molybdenum anomalism in end-of-hole aircore drilling over a 12km strike, the magnetite-rich nature of the syenite contact, and the favourable structural setting. BBRC1808 intersected mineralised syenite 300m to the east of Carbineer (up to 4m @ 0.69g/t Au 13) further upgrading the gold potential of the syenite. Previous drilling in the syenite along strike identified grades up to 3.06g/t Au in the oxide zone14, and grades up to 0.74g/t Au in the primary zone accompanied by 2021 Annual Report 9 Review of Activities magnetite-destructive silica-albite and carbonate alteration, shearing and quartz veining (BBRC1639; ASX Release 9 March 2021). The RC and diamond drill hole coverage is minimal (Figure 2) however the available data suggests that the flat-dipping and west-dipping lode system at Bombora extends eastwards into the syenite. Regional Targets End-of-hole multi-element aircore geochemistry indicates the gold potential at Lake Roe extends over 30km and the Company will conduct further drilling in several areas. Several priority targets are evident: (i) Windward Prospect (historical RC results up to 20.8g/t Au; ASX Release Carnavale Resources Ltd, 13 December 2016); Mako Prospect extending south of Crescent; and Corsair, Starboard and Booty Prospects (Figure 9). (ii) (iii) Figure 9: RC and Diamond Drilling Collars on Aircore Maximum Gold Image and Aeromagnetics Manna Lithium Prospect Breaker is taking steps to unlock hidden value from its Manna Lithium discovery located approximately 15km south of Bombora. Outcropping lithium-bearing pegmatite was discovered in early 2018 while undertaking reconnaissance gold exploration. First-pass rock-chip sampling identified widespread enrichment in lithium (up to 3.81% Li2O), tantalum (up to 366ppm Ta2O5) and niobium (up to 251ppm Nb2O5) and strong evidence of chemical zoning. Mapping and sampling during 2018/19 confirmed the presence of a spodumene-rich, lithium-cesium-tantalum (LCT) pegmatite system over a 3.4km x 1km area; an area which is constrained by outcrop limits and the extent of sampling (Figure 10).15 Five RC drill holes testing below the full extent of the 750m-long outcrop all returned multiple significant intercepts of high-grade Li2O, up to 17m @ 1.80% Li2O16. The RC drilling confirmed that the lithium intersection occurs in a 130m-wide zone of multiple dykes up to 17m wide that project to areas of outcrop at surface, a configuration potentially amenable to open pit mining. Auger geochemical drilling to assess the potential size of the discovery (beyond the outcrop) show a coherent 5.0 x 1.5km, northeast-trending lithium anomaly centred on the Manna spodumene outcrop, demonstrating the significant scale and potential of the Manna pegmatite swarm. Four diamond holes drilled in June 2019 for metallurgical sample confirmed the potential to produce high-grade, low impurity spodumene concentrates by heavy liquid separation17. 10 Breaker Resources NL Review of Activities Figure 10: Manna Lithium Prospect Showing Drilling and Rock Chip Sampling and Mapped Spodumene Pegmatite Collectively, the results highlight potential for a large, previously unexplored field of LCT pegmatite, with scope to establish a significant JORC Resource with limited further drilling. In September 2021, Breaker completed a 2,000m RC drilling programme designed to confirm the geometry of the known spodumene-rich pegmatite, and to assess the growth potential of what is already a significant lithium-cesium-tantalum (LCT) pegmatite system. Assay results are pending. Ularring Project The 228km2 Ularring Rock project is located 100km east of Perth (Figure 11). Figure 11: Ularring Project Location Plan 2021 Annual Report 11 Review of Activities Breaker is taking steps to obtain clearances for exploratory drilling at this project which was the subject of a major review by the Company. The project covers the Centre Forest and Southern Brook gold-copper prospects situated on a 7km long, NNW-trending zone of Au-in-soil anomalism (with coincident Cu-W-Mo-As) that overlies biotite-garnet gneisses with disseminated and quartz vein-hosted chalcopyrite-pyrrhotite mineralisation. Centre Forest and Southern Brook have attracted most of the past exploration activity however both prospects have only had a limited amount of drilling. At Centre Forest, open file historical drill intersections of 61m at 0.81g/t Au (from the surface) and 25m at 0.46g/t Au (~180m vertical depth) indicate down-dip continuity of mineralisation. Historical exploration has also identified a 15km x 10km ground water tungsten anomaly, identified from water bore sampling, which has not been drill-tested. Given the close association of tungsten with Au- Cu-Mo this is a high priority target for further investigations. A review of historical activity also indicates significant prospectivity for Ni-Cu-PGE mineralisation along a previously undrilled +20km belt of ultramafic rocks that includes untested ground electromagnetic (EM) targets.

Likely Developments and Expected Results The Company expects to maintain a similar status and level of activities to that at present and hence there are no likely developments in the entity's operations. Environmental Regulations and Performance Breaker is subject to significant environmental regulation in respect to its exploration activities.

Remuneration Report This Remuneration Report, which forms part of the Directors’ Report, sets out information about the remuneration of Breaker Resources NL’s key management personnel for the financial year ended 30 June 2021. The information provided in this report has been audited as per the requirements of section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). The report is set out under the following main headings: 2020 Remuneration Report Key management personnel; Principles used to determine the components and amount of compensation; Details of remuneration; Details of share-based compensation; and Details of service agreements and employment contracts. 2020 Remuneration Report The Company received a first strike against its Remuneration Report at the 2020 Annual General Meeting. The total votes cast against the Remuneration Report was 40.00%. In the three previous years, the votes cast against the Remuneration Report were 10.90% (2017), 5.21% (2018) and 0.15% (2019). The Company’s remuneration policy has remained consistent throughout this period with one change to directors’ fees (2019: increase from $40,000pa to $48,000pa inclusive of superannuation) and the following changes to executive management remuneration: 2017: remuneration reinstated to 2014 level after three years of 20% reduction 2018: approximate 10% increase 2019: 3% increase 2020: 3% increase The Board of Directors recognises shareholders’ right to use the remuneration report vote as a mechanism to express concern in relation to the Company’s activities or direction, as well as a comment upon its remuneration practices. During the year the Company undertook a review of its remuneration practices and determined that they were in line with industry peers and appropriate for an organisation of Breaker Resources’ size and stage of development. No increases in the fees or salaries paid to KMP were applied during the 2020/21 year. 2021 Annual Report 21 Directors’ Report A total of 3,750,000 unlisted options were issued to members of the KMP during the year. The issue of these options was approved by shareholders at the 2020 Annual General Meeting. The issue of options to directors is intended to form a component of their remuneration in order to keep cash payments to a minimum and to provide incentives linked to the performance of the Company. Given the speculative nature of the Company’s activities and the small management team responsible for its running, it is considered that the performance of directors and the performance and value of the Company are closely related. As such, options granted will only generally be of benefit if the directors perform to a level whereby the value of the Company increases sufficient to warrant exercising those options. The options were issued in a consistent manner to those previously issued to directors, and approved by shareholders, and at the date of this report remain unexercised. Since the Company listed on the ASX in 2012, no member of the KMP has exercised any unlisted options issued as part of their remuneration package and therefore attained any benefit from the issue of those options. Key Management Personnel For the purposes of this report, key management personnel of the Company are defined as those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Company, directly or indirectly. The key management personnel during the year were: Tom Sanders Mark Edwards Mike Kitney Linton Putland Eric Vincent Alastair Barker Michelle Simson Executive Chairman Non-Executive Director Non-Executive Director Non-Executive Director Non-Executive Director Exploration Manager Manager Corporate Affairs/Company Secretary Principles Used to Determine the Components and Amount of Compensation Remuneration Committee The role of the Remuneration Committee is to assist the Company in fulfilling its corporate governance responsibilities relating to remuneration by reviewing and making appropriate recommendations on: remuneration packages of executive directors, non-executive directors and officers; employee incentive and equity-based plans including the appropriateness of performance hurdles and total payments proposed; recruitment, retention and termination policies and procedures for senior executives; and superannuation arrangements. Remuneration Policy The remuneration policy of Breaker Resources NL has been designed to align key management personnel objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering specific long-term incentives based on key performance areas affecting the Company’s results. The Board of Breaker Resources NL believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best key management personnel to run and manage the Company. The policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for senior executives of the Company is summarised below: The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the executive directors and other senior executives, was developed by the Board. The Board reviews executive packages annually by reference to the Company’s performance, executive performance and comparable information from industry sectors and other listed companies in similar industries. 22 Breaker Resources NL Directors’ Report The Board may exercise discretion in relation to approving incentives, bonuses and options. The policy is designed to attract and retain the highest calibre of executives and reward them for performance that results in long-term growth in shareholder wealth. Executives are also eligible to participate in the employee incentive option scheme. Where applicable, executives receive a superannuation guarantee contribution required by the government, which during the reporting period was 9.5%. Some individuals may choose to sacrifice part of their salary to increase payments towards superannuation. All remuneration paid to key management personnel is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed. Options are valued using the Black-Scholes methodology. The Board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment and responsibilities. The Board determines payments to the non-executive directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders in general meeting. The current remuneration pool limit is $300,000 and is currently utilised to a level of $192,000 per annum. The base fee paid to non-executive directors is $48,000 per annum inclusive of superannuation. Fees for non-executive directors are not linked to the performance of the Company however to align directors’ interests with shareholder interests, the directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company and are able to participate in the employee incentive option scheme, although any allocation must be approved by shareholders in general meeting. There is no retirement benefit plan for directors. Performance Based Remuneration The Company currently has no individual performance based remuneration component built into key management personnel remuneration packages. Company Performance, Shareholder Wealth and Key Management Personnel Remuneration The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase the direct positive relationship between shareholders’ investment objectives and key management personnel performance. Currently, this is facilitated through the issue of options to key management personnel to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests. The Company believes this policy will be effective in increasing shareholder wealth. Use of Remuneration Consultants The Company did not employ the services of any remuneration consultants during the financial year ended 30 June 2021. Details of Remuneration The key management personnel of the Company are disclosed above. Remuneration packages contain the following elements: Short-term employee benefits – cash salary and fees, cash bonuses, non-monetary benefits and other; Post-employment benefits – including superannuation and termination; and Share-based payments – shares and options granted.

General information Breaker Resources NL is a public company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange, incorporated in Australia and operating in Australia. The Company’s registered office and its principal place of business is 12 Walker Avenue, West Perth WA 6005. Breaker Resources NL’s principal activity is mineral exploration and it is a for-profit entity for the purposes of preparing the Financial Statements. These Financial Statements are for Breaker Resources NL as an individual entity and are presented in the Australian currency. The Financial Statements were authorised for issue by the directors on 19 August 2021. The directors have the power to amend and reissue the Financial Statements. 2. Significant accounting policies The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the Financial Statements are set out below. (a) Basis of preparation These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (Corporations Act) and Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations (Standards) issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB). The Financial Statements and notes of the Company also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IFRS). These Financial Statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. Historical cost is generally based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted. Going concern The Financial Statements have been prepared on the basis of going concern which assumes continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Directors have considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the position of the Company at 30 June 2021 and its operations in future periods. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon funding to provide adequate working capital for a further 12 months from the date of signature of the Financial Statements. The directors intend to raise capital if it is needed. Therefore, they are satisfied that the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate. The Financial Statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or to the amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. (b) New and revised accounting standards Amendments to Accounting Standards that are mandatorily effective for the current year i. The Company has adopted all of the new and revised Standards issued by the AASB that are relevant to their operations and effective for the current year. Their adoption has not had any material impact on the disclosures or on the amounts reported in these financial statements. 34 Breaker Resources NL Notes to the Financial Statements AASB 2018-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Definition of material This Standard amends AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements and AASB 108 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, and makes consequential amendments to several other pronouncements and publications. The Company has adopted these amendments for the first time in the current year. The amendments make the definition of material in AASB 101 easier to understand and are not intended to alter the underlying concept of materiality in the Standards. The concept of 'obscuring' material information with immaterial information has been included as part of the new definition. The threshold for materiality influencing users has been changed from 'could influence' to 'could reasonably be expected to influence'. The definition of material in AASB 108 has been replaced by a reference to the definition of material in AASB 101. In addition, the Standard also amends other Standards and the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting (Conceptual Framework) that contain a definition of 'material' or refer to the term ‘material’ to ensure consistency. AASB 2019-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosure of the effect of new IFRS Standards not yet issued in Australia This Standard makes amendments to AASB 1054 Additional Australian Disclosures by adding a disclosure requirement for an entity intending to comply with IFRS to disclose the information specified in paragraphs 30 and 31 of AASB 108 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors on the potential effect of an IFRS that has not yet been issued by the AASB. The company has adopted these amendments for the first time in the current year. New and revised Accounting Standards in issue not yet adopted ii. At the date of authorisation of the Financial Statements, the Standards applicable to the Company’s business listed below were in issue but not yet effective. The potential effect of the revised Standards on the Company’s financial statements has not yet been determined. AASB 2015-10 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Effective Date of Amendments to AASB 10 and AASB 128 and AASB 2017-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Effective Date of Amendments to AASB 10 and AASB 128 and Editorial Corrections, effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022; AASB 2020-1 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current and AASB2020-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current-Deferral of Effective Date, effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022; AASB 2020-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Annual Improvements 2018-2020 and Other Amendments, effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022; AASB 2020-8 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phrase 2, effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 June 2021; AASB 2021-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Disclosure of Accounting Policies and Definition of Accounting Estimates, effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023. (c) Segment reporting An operating segment is defined as a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The Company’s chief operating decision maker, who is 2021 Annual Report 35 Notes to the Financial Statements responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board of Directors. (d) Government grants Government grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attaching to them and that the grants will be received. Government grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Company with no future related costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they become receivable. (e) (f) Interest income Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable. Income tax The income tax expense for the year is the tax payable on the current year’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. The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period in the countries where the Company operates and generates taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It creates provisions, where appropriate, on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. 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 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 substantively 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 these temporary differences and losses. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively. (g) Impairment of non-financial assets At the end of each reporting period, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its non- financial assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market 36 Breaker Resources NL Notes to the Financial Statements assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease. When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset 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 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. (h) Cash and cash equivalents For the purpose of presentation in the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions and other short term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three (3) months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are not subject to significant risk of changes in value. (i) j) Trade and other receivables Receivables are recognised and carried at original invoice amount less a provision for any uncollectible debts. An estimate for doubtful debts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off as incurred. Financial assets There are three principal classification categories for financial assets: measured at amortised cost, at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) and at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL). The classification of financial assets is generally based on the business model in which a financial asset is managed and its contractual cash flow characteristics. Impairment The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an expected credit loss in relation to the impairment of financial assets. The Company accounts for expected credit losses and changes in those expected credit losses at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition of the financial assets. (k) Plant and equipment All plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the Statement of Profit or Loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred. Depreciation of plant and equipment is calculated using the straight line method to allocate their cost or revalued amounts, net of their residual values, over their estimated useful lives or, in the case of leasehold improvements and certain leased plant and equipment, the shorter lease term. All plant and equipment is depreciated at the rate of 25% per annum. The assets’ residual values 2021 Annual Report 37 Notes to the Financial Statements and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting 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 (refer to Note 2(g)). Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. (l) Exploration and evaluation costs Exploration and evaluation costs are written off in the year they are incurred. (m) (n) 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, non-interest bearing and are paid on normal commercial terms. They are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. Employee benefits Short-term obligations Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, and annual leave that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service 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 short-term employee benefit obligations are presented as payables. Other long-term employee benefit obligations The liabilities for long service leave and annual leave that are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are 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 using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the end of the reporting period of government bonds with terms and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in profit or loss. (o) Share-based payments The Company provides benefits to employees (including directors and contractors) and suppliers in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby employees and suppliers render goods or services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (equity-settled transactions) (refer to Note 17). The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value at the date at which they are granted. The fair value of options is determined by an internal valuation using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which any performance conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees or suppliers become fully entitled to the award (vesting date). The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects: the extent to which the vesting period has expired; and the number of options that, in the opinion of the directors of the Company, will ultimately vest. 38 Breaker Resources NL Notes to the Financial Statements This opinion is formed based on the best available information at balance date. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date. No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is conditional upon a market condition. Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award, and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award. (p) Issued capital Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. (q) 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. (r) Critical judgements, estimates and assumptions The preparation of these Financial Statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates, which, by definition, will seldom equal the actual results. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the Financial Statements are: Environmental issues Balances disclosed in the Financial Statements and notes thereto are not adjusted for any pending or enacted environmental legislation, and the directors’ understanding thereof. At the current stage of the Company’s development and its current environmental impact, the directors believe such treatment is reasonable and appropriate. Taxation Balances disclosed in the Financial Statements and the notes thereto related to taxation are based on the best estimates of the directors. These estimates take into account both the financial performance and position of the Company as they pertain to current income taxation legislation, and the directors’ understanding thereof. No adjustment has been made for pending or future taxation legislation. The current income tax position represents the directors’ best estimate, pending an assessment by the Australian Taxation Office. Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the COVID-19 pandemic has had, or may have, on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of business, supply chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the 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 2021 Annual Report 39 Notes to the Financial Statements impact the consolidated entity unfavourably as at the reporting date or subsequently as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Share-based payment transactions The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using Black-Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity- settled share-based payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact profit or loss and equity. 3. Financial risk management The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Company. Risk management is carried out by the Board via the audit and risk committees as the Company believes that it is crucial for directors to be involved in this process. The Executive Chairman, with the assistance of senior management as required, has responsibility for identifying, assessing, treating and monitoring risks and reporting to the Board on risk management. (a) Market risk Foreign exchange risk As all current operations are within Australia the Company is not exposed to foreign exchange risk. Commodity price risk Given the current level of operations the Company is not directly exposed to commodity price risk. Interest rate risk The Company is exposed to movements in market interest rates on cash and cash equivalents and bank deposits. The Company’s policy is to monitor the interest rate yield curve out to six (6) months to ensure a balance is maintained between the liquidity of cash assets and the interest rate return. The entire balance of cash and bank deposits for the Company of $11,051,185 (2020: $3,643,184) is subject to interest rate risk. The weighted average interest rate received on cash and cash equivalents by the Company was 0.43% (2020: 0.39%). Sensitivity analysis At 30 June 2021, if interest rates had changed by -/+ 100 basis points from the weighted average rate for the year with all other variables held constant, post-tax loss for the Company would have been $73,472 lower/higher (2020: $42,846) as a result of lower/higher interest income from cash and cash equivalents. (b) Credit risk The Company has no significant concentrations of credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk at balance date is the carrying amount of those assets as disclosed in the Statement of Financial Position and Notes to the Financial Statements. As the Company does not presently have any debtors, lending, significant stock levels or any other credit risk, a formal credit risk management policy is not maintained. 40 Breaker Resources NL Notes to the Financial Statements (c) Liquidity risk The Company manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and ensuring sufficient cash and marketable securities are available to meet the current and future commitments of the Company. Due to the nature of the Company’s activities, being mineral exploration, the Company does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the primary source of funding being equity raisings. The Board constantly monitors the state of equity markets in conjunction with the Company’s current and future funding requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required. The financial liabilities of the Company are generally confined to trade and other payables as disclosed in the Statement of Financial Position. All trade and other payables are non-interest bearing and due within 12 months of the reporting date. (d) Fair value estimation The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes. All financial assets and financial liabilities of the Company at the balance date are recorded at amounts approximating their carrying amount due to their short-term nature. 4. Income and expenses (a) Income from continuing operations includes the following revenue items: Government grant and incentive Interest income Other (b) Loss for the year includes the following specific expenses: Depreciation expenses Exploration and evaluation expenses (c) Employee benefit expenses: Wages and superannuation Directors’ fees Leave provisions Other 5.

This segment includes activities associated with the determination and assessment of the existence of commercial economic reserves from the Company’s mineral assets in this 2021 Annual Report 41 Notes to the Financial Statements geographic location.

As a result, the deferred tax assets of the Company have been adjusted in the 2021 year to reflect the decrease in corporate tax rate applicable to the Company. 2021 Annual Report 43 Notes to the Financial Statements Net deferred tax assets have not been brought to account as it is not probable within the immediate future that tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilised. The Company’s ability to use losses in the future is subject to the Company satisfying the relevant tax authority’s criteria for using these losses. The deductible temporary differences and tax losses do not expire under current tax legislation. Deferred tax assets have not been recognised in respect of these items because it is not probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the Company can utilise benefits. The utilisation of tax losses is dependent on the Company satisfying the continuity of ownership test or the same business test at the time the tax losses are applied against taxable income. 7.

The options are exercisable at prices between $0.150 and $0.465 and expire between 31 December 2021 and 31 May 2024. (d) Ordinary shares Ordinary shares entitle the holder to participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up of the Company in proportion to the number of and amounts paid on the shares held. On a show of hands every holder of ordinary shares present at a meeting in person or by proxy, is entitled to one (1) vote, and upon a poll each share is entitled to one (1) vote, in proportion to the number of and amounts paid as a proportion of the issue price on the shares held (excluding any amounts paid up in advance of a call). Ordinary shares have no par value and the Company does not have a limited amount of authorised capital. (e) Capital risk management The Company’s objective when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to carry on as a going concern, so that it may continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. Due to the nature of the Company’s activities, being mineral exploration, the Company does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the primary source of funding being equity raisings. Therefore, the focus of capital risk management is the current working capital position against the requirements of the Company to meet exploration programs and corporate overheads. The Company’s strategy is to ensure appropriate liquidity is maintained to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required. The working capital position of the Company at 30 June 2021 and 30 June 2020 is as follows: Cash and cash equivalents Term deposits Trade and other receivables Other financial assets Trade and other payables Working capital position 13.

Commitments (a) Exploration Commitments The Company must maintain current rights of tenure to tenements, which requires outlays of expenditure in 2021/22. Under certain circumstances these commitments are subject to the possibility of adjustment to the amount and/or timing of such obligations however they are expected to be fulfilled in the normal course of operations. Estimated expenditure on mining, exploration and prospecting leases for 2021/22 as at the date of this report: 2022 $ 2021 $ 1,008,400 869,900 (b) Capital Commitments There are no capital expenditure commitments for the Company as at 30 June 2021.
