Swamp not swap … current liabilities “swamp” your current assets which include an inventory the auditors have reported they cannot confirm it has any value ! Only 1.6m …
The auditor’s qualified opinion appears on page 22 of the 2024 full-year accounts PDF (Goldstone Resources Ltd), under the section titled “Basis for Qualified Opinion”.
Here’s what the auditors said (summary):
“We were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence in respect of the existence and valuation of gold in process inventory (GIP), stated as $1,635,000 (2023: $2,464,000), due to the lack of reliable information relating to quantities and recoverability.”
They also noted:
“We were unable to satisfy ourselves by alternative audit procedures.”
Translation:
They could not confirm that the reported gold-in-process (GIP) inventory was real or recoverable.
The GIP value includes 810 oz of gold (at $2,000/oz valuation) that may not be physically extractable.
It’s not long ago they released in an RNS they had 5,553 ounces stuck in the leach pads … where did this go ?
