Notes to the unaudited interim accounts For the six month period ended 30 June 2007 1. The results for the period are all derived from continuing activities. 2. The calculation of the basic and diluted profit per share has been based on the loss after taxation for the period (£979,458) and the weighted average number of ordinary shares of £0.001 each (64,136,765) in issue throughout the period. 3. In accordance with the full cost method, all costs associated with mineral property development and investment are capitalised on a project-by-project basis pending determination of the feasibility of the project. Costs incurred include appropriate technical and administrative expenses but not general overheads. If a mineral property development project is successful, the related expenditures will be amortised over the estimated life of the commercial ore reserves on a unit of production basis. Where a licence is relinquished, a project is abandoned, or is considered to be of no further commercial value to the company, the related costs will be written off. Unevaluated mineral properties are assessed at each year end and where there are indications of impairment the related costs will be written off. The recoverability of unevaluated mineral property costs is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the group to obtain necessary financing to complete the development of reserves and future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition of recoverable reserves. 4. The unaudited results have been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies adopted in the annual accounts for the period ended 31 December 2006 and are neither audited nor reviewed by the auditors of Pan Pacific Aggregates Plc. 5. The interim report is unaudited and does not constitute Statutory Accounts as defined in Section 240 of the Companies Act 1985. A copy of the Company's 2006 Statutory Accounts has been filed with the Registrar of Companies. The audit report issued for the period ended 31 December 2006 was unqualified. 6. The financial information for the period 1 January 2007 to 30 June 2007 is unaudited. In the opinion of the directors the financial information for this period presents fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards consistently applied.
