The Board monitors the business affairs of Murchison United NL on behalf of the shareholders by whom they are elected and to whom they are accountable. The Board of Directors acknowledge the Principles of Good Corporate Governance and Best Practice Recommendations set by the Australian Stock Exchange ("ASX") Corporate Governance Council. However, in view of the company's current size and extent and nature of operations, full adoption of the best practice recommendations is currently not practical. The Board will continue to work towards full adoption of the recommendations in line with the growth and development of the Company in the years ahead. A summary of current corporate governance practices adopted by the Board are as follows: Composition of the Board The composition of the Board is determined in accordance with the following principals and guidelines: • The Board shall compromise at least 3 Directors, increasing where additional expertise is considered desirable in certain areas; and • Directors may bring characteristics, which allow a mix of qualifications, skills and experience. Potential candidate(s) will be identified by the Board, and advice may be obtained from an external consultant. The Board then appoints the most suitable candidate, who shall hold office until the next following Annual General Meeting, where the appointee is required to stand for re-election. The current Board is comprised of four Directors of which three are non-executive directors including the Chairman. All Directors of the company have a formal letter of appointment setting out the key terms and conditions of their appointment. The primary responsibilities of the Board include: • The approval of the annual and half-year financial report; • The establishment of corporate strategy and to continually monitor strategic development; • The review and adoption of annual budges for the financial performance of the Company and monitoring the results on a quarterly basis; • Reviewing and ratifying systems of risk management and internal compliance and control, codes of conduct and legal compliances; • To access potential investment opportunities for the Company; and • Overseeing the day to day management of the Company; MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (Continued) Audit Committee All matters, which might properly be dealt with by an audit committee, are the scrutiny of Board Meetings. Matters that are considered include: • Ensuring that an effective internal control framework exists within the Company; • Review the annual report, financial statements and other information distributed externally; • Reviewing audit reports and letters to the Board from the external auditors; • Liasing with external auditors and ensuring the annual audit and half year review are conducted in an effective manner; • Nomination of the external auditor and reviewing the adequacy of the scope and quality of the annual audit and half year review; and • Monitoring compliance with the Corporations Act 2001, ASX Listing Rules, and other matters outstanding with other regulatory and financial authorities. Remuneration The Board reviews the remuneration packages and policies applicable to the Executive Directors, on an annual basis. Remuneration levels are competitively set to attract qualified experienced Directors. Where necessary the Board will obtain independent advice on the appropriateness of remuneration packages. Where the remuneration of a particular Executive Director is to be considered, the Director concerned declares his interest and does not vote, as well as depart the meeting, so as not to be present while the issue is being discussed. Communication to Shareholders The Board of Directors aims to ensure that the shareholders are informed of all information necessary to assess the performance of the Directors. Information is communicated to the shareholders through: • The annual report which is distributed to all shareholders; • The half-year report lodged with the ASX; • The annual general meeting and other meetings so called to obtain approval for board action as appropriate; and • Quarterly reports and other announcements made by the Company to the ASX under continuous disclosure requirements. MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (Continued) Ethical Standards The Board acknowledges the need for and continued maintenance of a high standard of corporate governance practice and ethical conduct by all Directors and employees. Independent Professional Advice The Directors have the right, in connection with their duties and responsibilities as Directors, to seek independent professional advice at the company's expense. Prior approval of the Chairman is required, which will not be unreasonably withheld. Risk Management The Board is responsible for the company's system of internal controls. The Board is responsible for establishing and implementing policies on risk management. Future Developments The Company is continuing to investigate resource opportunities in Australia and internationally, to assess their appropriateness for the Company. It is the Directors view that further implementation of the Principals of Good Corporate Governance and Best Practice Recommendation as set by the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) will be assessed once an appropriate project is secured.

MEETING OF DIRECTORS The number of Directors' meetings and number of meetings attended by each of the Directors of the Company during the financial year are: Director's Meetings A B G R Featherby 6 6 M D Reilly 6 6 D Hutchins 5 6 C D Grannell 1 1 B G Camarri 1 1 P C Atherley 1 1 A - Number of meetings attended B - Reflects the number of meetings held during the time the director held office during the year MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED) OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES Murchison United NL is a no liability company incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The principal activity of the company during the course of the financial year was the exploration of minerals. OPERATIONS During the year and up to the date of this report Murchison United NL continues to investigate resource opportunities. Currently these are focused on the Company's mining interests in the Cloncurry area in Queensland, Australia and reviewing the prospectivity for uranium in the countries of Niger, Mali and The Republic of Guinea. Murchison United NL have commissioned SRK Consulting UK, to carry out field visits and geological analysis of a number of areas in the Republic of Guinea, Niger and Mali. SRK have completed their visit and analysis of data from the Republic of Guinea collecting limited rock samples and analysed limited historical mapping and target generation data compiled by consultants for the Government during the 1980's. SRK are currently planning visits to Niger and Mali. Pending completion of the SRK review of Niger and Mali, the Company has applied for exploration licences in Guinea over the areas of interest. The Company has taken this action to preserve the Company's priority to those areas if the Company ultimately decides to pursue exploration. The application for exploration licences in Guinea does not commit the Company to any financial obligation unless the licences are granted. There is no guarantee that the licences will be granted. It is the Company's intention to await the completion of the reports for Niger and Mali before determining whether to commit to an exploration programme in one or more of Guinea, Niger or Mali. If SRK's review of the identified areas in Niger and Mali does not provide significant encouragement, it is unlikely that the Company would proceed with an exploration programme in Guinea alone The Directors of Murchison United NL are continuing to investigate resource opportunities in Australia and internationally to assess their appropriateness for the Company. Operating Results for the year The loss after income tax for the financial year was $1,661,188 (2004: $1,794,103) Dividends No dividend has been paid since the end of the previous financial year. The Directors recommend that no dividend be paid in respect of the current financial year. MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED) Earnings per share Cents Basic earnings/(loss) per share (.01) Diluted earnings/(loss) per (.01) share Employees Murchison United NL employed 4 employees as at 30th June 2005 (2004: no employees) Capital Structure During the year 15,301,667 shares were issued to Renison Bell Limited approved shortfall creditors. This issue, which was not for cash, was to satisfy an obligation of the Company. The company issued a further 57,777,777 shares at $0.045 raising $2,448,860 after costs. Risk management The Company takes a proactive approach to risk management. The Board is responsible for ensuring that risks, and also opportunities, are identified on a timely basis and that the Company's objectives and activities are aligned with the risks and opportunities identified by the board. The group believes that it is crucial for all Board members to be part of this process, and as such the board has not established a separate risk management committee. SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE STATE OF AFFAIRS Significant changes in the state of affairs of the company during the financial year were as follows: •The Company offered, negotiated and entered into a Deed of Company Arrangement (DOCA) in connection with Renison Bell Limited "RBL", which was approved by creditors on 13 November 2003, offering "shortfall" creditors additional value. The Company offered all RBL creditors whose debt is not satisfied in full, one fully paid ordinary share in the Company for every $1.00 of unsatisfied debt. A minimum amount equivalent to a marketable parcel is offered to creditors. The DOCA was executed in December 2003. During the year approved shortfall creditors were issued 15,301,667 shares. The Deed Administrator has not yet finalised the approval or otherwise of all "proof of debts" lodged by RBL creditors. Un-finalised proofs could require the issue of additional shares to a maximum of 4,191,979. It is envisaged that the issue of outstanding shares to RBL creditors will be completed during the year ended 30th June 2006. •The company issued 57,777,777 shares at $0.045 cents raising $2,448,860 after costs. The funds raised will be used for working capital to review existing assets and continue the Company's investigation of resource opportunities in Australia and internationally. MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED) EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO BALANCE DATE There has not arisen in the interval between the end of the financial year and the date of this report any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the Directors, to affect significantly the operations of the Company, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Company, in subsequent financial years. LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Further information about likely developments in the operations of the Company and the expected results of those operations in future financial years has not been included in this report because disclosure of that information would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the Company. ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION AND PERFORMANCE The company has an environmental security deposit of $7,950 (2004: $7,950) in relation to the Millennium mining leases. There have been no calls on this deposit up to the date of this report. The Board believes that the Company has adequate systems in place for the management of its environmental requirements and is not aware of any breach of environmental requirements as they apply to the company. MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED) REMUNERATION REPORT This report outlines the remuneration arrangements in place for directors and executives of Murchison United NL (the Company) Remuneration philosophy The performance of the company depends upon the quality of its directors and executives. To prosper the company must attract, motivate and retain highly skilled directors and executives. To this end, the company provides competitive rewards to attract high calibre executives. Remuneration committee The Directors of Murchison United NL considered that due to the level of current operations a Remuneration Committee is currently not required. The Board is responsible for remuneration policy to ensure that remuneration packages properly reflect each person's duties and responsibilities, and that remuneration is competitive in attracting, retaining and motivating people of the highest quality. During the year a remuneration committee did not exist. The existence and composition of Directors' Committees may be reconsidered in the coming months. Remuneration structure In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of non-executive director and senior manager remuneration is separate and distinct. Non-executive director remuneration Objective The Board seeks to set aggregate remuneration at a level which provides the company with the ability to attract and retain directors of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost which is acceptable to shareholders. Structure The Constitution and the ASX and AIM Listing Rules specify that the aggregate remuneration of non-executive directors shall be determined from time to time by a general meeting. An amount not exceeding the amount determined is then divided between directors as agreed. The latest determination was at the Annual General meeting held on 30 November 1998 when shareholders agreed an aggregate remuneration of $300,000 per year. The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to be approved by shareholders and the manner in which it is apportioned amongst directors is reviewed annually. The board considers advice from external consultants as well as the fees paid to non-executive directors of comparable companies when undertaking the annual review process. Each director receives a fee for being a director of the company. Non-executive directors are encouraged by the board to hold shares in the company purchased by the director. It is considered good governance for directors to have a stake in the company whose board he or she sits. The non-executive directors of the company can participate in the Employee Share Option Plan, which provides incentives where specified criteria are met. The remuneration of non-executive directors for the year ended 30 June 2005 is detailed in Table 1 on page 14 of this report. MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED) REMUNERATION REPORT (Continued) Senior manager and executive director remuneration Objective The company aims to reward executives with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their position and responsibilities within the company and so as to: • Align the interests of executives with those of shareholders; • Ensure total remuneration is competitive by market standards. Structure In determining the level and make-up of the executive remuneration, the Board obtained advice as to remuneration paid to executive directors of comparable companies. It is the Board's policy that employment contracts are only entered into with the Managing Director and with no other executives. Details of this contract are provided on page 13. Remuneration consists of the following key elements: • Fixed Remuneration • Variable Remuneration Fixed Remuneration Objective The level of fixed remuneration is to set as so to provide a base level of remuneration, which is both appropriate to the position and is competitive in the market. Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Board of Directors and the process consists of a review of business and individual performance, relevant comparative remuneration in the market and internal and, where appropriate, external advice on policies and practices. The Board has access to external advice independent of management. Structure Senior managers are given the opportunity to receive their fixed (primary) remuneration in a variety of forms including cash and fringe benefits such as motor vehicles and expense payment plans. It is intended that the manner of payment chosen will be optimal for the recipient without creating undue costs for the company. MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED) REMUNERATION REPORT (Continued) Variable Remuneration - Long Term Incentive (LTI) Objective The objective of the LTI plan is to reward senior managers in a manner which aligns this element of remuneration with the creation of shareholder wealth. As such LTI grants are only made to executives who are able to influence the generation of shareholder wealth and thus have a direct impact on the Company's performance against the relevant long term performance. Structure LTI grants to executives are delivered in the form of options. There are no performance conditions attached to the options. Options granted to executives during the year are detailed on page 13. Employment contracts The Managing Director, Mr Mark D Reilly, is employed under contract. The current employment contract commenced on the 1 January 2005. Under the terms of the present contract: • Mr Reilly may resign from his position and thus terminate this contract by giving 6 months written notice. On resignation by notice, any LTI options granted will have vested, or will vest during the notice period. • The company may terminate this employment agreement by providing 6 months written notice or provide payment in lieu of the notice period (based on the fixed component of Mr Reilly's remuneration). On termination on notice by the company, any LTI options granted will have vested, or will vest during the notice period. • The company may terminate the contract at any time without notice if serious misconduct has occurred. Where termination with cause occurs the Managing Director is only entitled to that portion of remuneration, which is fixed, and only up to the date of termination. On termination with cause any unvested options will immediately be forfeited.

See below for further details. Fair value of options: The fair value of each option is estimated on the date of grant using the "Black & Scholes" option pricing method with the following assumptions: Underlying share price: Low $0.05 High $0.10 Risk of Underlying shares - Annualised standard deviation 94.916% per AGSM Risk fee interest rate 5.45% Expected life of options 5 years Dividend Yield 0% The resultant average fair value per option vesting after 1 July 2004 is $0.0595 Currently, these fair values are not recognised as expense in the financial statements. However, should these grants be expensed as required under AIFRS, they would be amortised over the vesting periods resulting in an increase in employee benefits expense of $103,723.00 (2004 $0). Note that no adjustments to these amounts have been made to reflect estimated or actual forfeitures (i.e. options that do not vest). MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED) DIRECTORS' AND OTHER OFFICERS' EMOLUMENTS (Continued) OPTIONS At the date of this report, unissued ordinary shares of the Company under option are: Expiry Date Exercise Price Number of Shares 1 July 2007 $0.46 350,000 19 May 2010 $0.055 7,500,000 These options do not entitle the holder to participate in any share issue of any other body corporate. No options were issued during the year and no shares were issued as a result of the exercise of any options. DIRECTORS' INTERESTS The relevant interest of each Director in the share capital and options of the Company, as notified by the Directors to the Australian Stock Exchange in accordance with s205G (1) of the Corporations Act 2001, at the date of this report is as follows: - Murchison United NL Ordinary Shares Partly Paid Shares Options G R Featherby 3,333,333 - 2,000,000 M D Reilly 3,333,333 - 3,500,000 D Hutchins 500,000 - - C D Grannell - - - MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED) INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE OF OFFICERS Indemnities and insurance The Company has, in accordance with the Constitution, entered into insurance contracts, which indemnify Directors and officers of the Company against liabilities.

MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2005 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The significant policies which have been adopted in the preparation of this financial report are: (a) Basis of Preparation The financial report is a general-purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standards, other mandatory professional reporting requirements (Urgent Issues Group Consensus Views), other authoritive pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board, and the Corporations Act 2001. The financial report has been prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention. The accounting policies have been consistently applied and are consistent with those of the previous year. (b) Revenue Recognition Sales revenue Sales revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received from the sale of products to entities outside the consolidated entity. Sales revenue is recognised when the product is delivered and risk passes to the customer. Interest revenue Interest revenue is recognised as it accrues, taking into account the effective yield on the financial asset. Sale of non-current assets The gross proceeds of non-current asset sales are included as revenue at the date control of the asset passes to the buyer. The gain or loss on disposal of assets is brought to account at the date an unconditional contract of sale is signed. Other revenue Other revenue is recognised when the services have been fully provided. (c) Foreign Currency Transactions Foreign currency transactions are translated to Australian currency at the rates of exchange ruling at the dates of the transactions. Amounts receivable and payable in foreign currencies at balance date are translated at the rates of exchange ruling on that date. Exchange differences relating to amounts payable and receivable in foreign currencies are brought to account as exchange gains or losses in the statement of financial performance in the financial year in which the exchange rates change. MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2005 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) (d) Taxation The company adopts the income statement liability method of tax effect accounting. Income tax expense is calculated on operating profit adjusted for permanent differences between taxable and accounting income. The tax effect of timing differences, which arise from items being brought to account in different periods for income tax and accounting purposes, is carried forward in the statement of financial position as a future income tax benefit or a provision for deferred income tax. Future income tax benefits are not brought to account unless realisation of the asset is assured beyond reasonable doubt. Future income tax benefits relating to tax losses are only brought to account when their realisation is virtually certain. (e) Recoverable Amount of Non-current Assets Valued on Cost Basis The carrying amounts of non-current assets valued on the cost basis are reviewed to determine whether they are in excess of their recoverable amount at balance date. If the carrying amount of a non-current asset exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is written down to the lower amount. The write-down is recognised as an expense in the reporting period in which it occurs. Where a group of assets working together supports the generation of cash inflows, recoverable amount is assessed in relation to that group of assets. In assessing recoverable amounts of non-current assets the relevant cash flows have not been discounted to their present value, except where specifically stated. (f) Investments Other Companies Investments in other listed and unlisted companies are carried at the lower of cost, and recoverable amount, being the Directors' valuation based on market values at the time of the valuation. Dividends are brought to account as they are received. MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2005 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) (g) Property, Plant and Equipment Acquisition Items of property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost and depreciated as outlined below. Costs incurred on property, plant and equipment, which do not meet the criteria for capitalisation, are expensed as incurred. Depreciation and Amortisation Depreciation on other property, plant and equipment is calculated on a straight-line basis so as to write off the cost of each asset over its estimated useful life. The depreciation rates used where straight-line depreciation was applied are as follows: 2005 2004 Plant and equipment 5% - 33.3% 5% - 33.3% Assets are depreciated or amortised from the date of acquisition or, in respect of internally constructed assets, from the time an asset is completed and held ready for use. (h) Exploration, Evaluation and Development Expenditure All costs arising from exploration, evaluation and development related to an area of interest are expensed as incurred until the project satisfies the recoverable amount test. Where a grant is received in relation to exploration expenditure, the grant revenue is recognised as a deduction against the exploration, evaluation and development expenditure. Amortisation is not charged on costs carried forward in respect of areas of interest in the development phase until production commences. MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2005 (i) Employee Benefits Wages, Salaries, Annual Leave and Long Service Leave Provision is made for employee benefits accumulated as a result of employees rendering services up to the reporting date. These benefits include wages and salaries, annual leave and long service leave. Liabilities arising in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and any other employee benefits expected to be settled within twelve months of the reporting date are measured at their nominal amounts based on remuneration rates which are expected to be paid when the liability is settled. All other employee benefit liabilities are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflow to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. In determining the present value of future cash outflows, the market yield as at the reporting date on national government bonds, which have terms to maturity approximating the terms of the related liability, are used. Employee benefit expense and revenues arising in respect of the following categories: • wages and salaries, non-monetary benefits, annual leave, long service leave and other leave benefits; and • other types of employee benefits are recognised against profits on a net basis in their respective categories. Employee Share Option Plan The Company issues options to certain employees under the Murchison United Employee Share Option Plan approved at an Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders held on 10 February 1996. Further information is set out in Note 20 to the financial statements. These options are issued as an incentive for future performance and commitment to the Company and are not recognised in the statement of financial performance. When options are exercised, the shares are recognised in the statement of financial position at the amount paid. Superannuation Plan The Company contributes to several accumulation type superannuation plans. Contributions are charged against income as they are incurred. (j) Payables Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether or not billed to the Company. Trade accounts payable are normally settled within 30 days. Amounts disclosed as Renison Bell Creditor settlement are to be satisfied by the issue of fully paid shares in Murchison United NL. MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2005 (k) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash on hand and in banks and short-term deposits are stated at nominal value. For the purposes of the Statement of Cash flows, cash includes cash on hand and in banks, and money market investments readily convertible to cash within 2 working days, net of outstanding bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are carried at the principal amount. Interest is recognised as an expense as it accrues. (l) Goods and Services tax Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST) except where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item applicable. Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The amount of GST recoverable from, and/or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset and/or liability in the statement of financial position. Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows. (m) Issue of Equity Instruments When equity instruments are issued as consideration for the acquisition of assets or settlement of liabilities, they are issued by reference to the market value at the date the transaction occurs. Issued and paid up capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Company. Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the share proceeds received. (n) Earnings per Share Basic EPS is calculated as net profit or loss attributable to members, adjusted to exclude costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares adjusted for any bonus element. Diluted EPS is calculated as net profit or loss attributable to members, adjusted for: • costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends; • the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses; and • other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares; divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

At 30 June 2005 the Company had a credit risk exposure of $2,019,571 (2004: $181,259) which consisted of cash receivables and an unlisted investment. Recognised financial instruments The credit risk on financial assets, excluding investments, of the entity which have been recognised on the statement of financial position, is the carrying amount, net of any provision for doubtful debts. (c) Net fair values of financial assets and liabilities Valuation Approach Net fair values of financial assets and liabilities are determined by the entity on the following basis: Recognised financial instruments Monetary financial assets and financial liabilities not readily traded in an organised financial market are determined by valuing them at the present value of expected future cash flows. The carrying amounts of bank term deposits, accounts receivable, accounts payable and bank loans approximate net fair value. The net fair value of investments in interests in other corporations is determined by reference to the expected future cash flows from the underlying assets. The carrying amounts and net fair values of financial assets and liabilities at the reporting date approximate the book values at which they are carried in the statement of financial position.

CONTINGENT ASSET AND LIABILITIES (a) Contingent Asset At 30 June 2005 and subsequent to the settlement with other Renison Bell Ltd Creditors, Murchison United NL remains a creditor of Renison Bell Ltd. Depending on the proceeds from the sale of assets, including the Renison Bell tin mine, and expenses of the Administration of Renison Bell Ltd, the Company may receive a part distribution in satisfaction of the outstanding liability. Due to the uncertainty relating to the timing and amount of future proceeds quantification of an amount cannot be calculated with any certainty. (b) Contingent Liabilities There are no contingent liabilities. MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2005 23. IMPACT OF ADOPTING AUSTRALIAN EQUIVALENTS TO INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS For the financial year commencing 1 July 2005, the Company must comply with Australian equivalents of International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ("AASB"). The Company will be required to present its financial statements in accordance with AASB standards equivalent to IFRS standards for the financial year commencing 1 July 2005, including the interim financial report for the financial year ending 31 December 2005. Entities complying with IFRS for the first time will be required to restate their comparative financial statements to amounts reflecting the application of IFRS to that comparative period. Most adjustments required on transition to IFRS will be made, retrospectively, against opening retained earnings as at 1 July 2004. The Company is in the process of transitioning its accounting policies and financial reporting from current Australian Standards to Australian equivalent of IFRS within the requisite time frame. Murchison United NL has allocated to internal resources to perform an internal review to assess the impact of the anticipated conversion to IFRS from the Company's existing accounting and reporting practices. The review focused on the standards reasonably believed to be relevant to the Company. The review has quantified the effects of the differences as set out below. The figures disclosed are management's best estimates of the quantitative impact of the changes as at the date of preparing the 30 June 2005 financial report. The actual effects of transition to AIFRS may differ from the estimates disclosed due to (a) ongoing work being undertaken by the IFRS project team; (b) potential amendments to AIFRS and interpretations thereof being issued by the standard setters and IFRIC; and (c) emerging accepted practice in the interpretation and application of AIFRS and UIG interpretations. MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2005 23. IMPACT OF ADOPTING AUSTRALIAN EQUIVALENTS TO INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (Continued) The review process has identified a number of accounting policy changes that will be required. In some cases choices of accounting policies are available including elective exemptions under Accounting Standards AASB 1 First time Adoption of Australian Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (July 2004). These choices were analysed to determine the accounting policy most appropriate for the Company. The changes identified to date that will be required to the Company's existing accounting policies include the following. Share-Based Payments Under current Australian GAAP no expenses is recognised for options issued to employees. Murchison United NL operates a shareholder approved Employee Share Option Plan ("ESOP"). In addition Murchison United NL has issued options to Directors and specified employees outside of the ESOP after approval from shareholders. Pursuant to the ESOP or otherwise the Company issues options to senior executives as part of its remuneration strategy designed to align the interests of the participants with those of all Murchison United NL's Shareholders. The fair value will be measured and spread over the vesting period during which the employees becomes unconditionally entitled to the options. The fair value of options granted will be measured using the Black and Scholes method, taking into account the terms and conditions attached to the options. Under AASB 2 Share-based Payments, the Company will be required to recognise an expense over the vesting period for option issues in its Statement of Financial Performance. The standard applies to all share based payments issued after 7 November 2002, which have not vested as at 1 January 2005. The treatment will result in an increase in expenses in the Statement of Financial Performance. No tax deduction is allowed for the amount expensed. For options granted before 7 November 2002, Murchison applies the exemption under AASB 1, which allow companies not to fully retrospectively apply AASB 2 "Share-based Payments", being not to expense those options. For options granted after 7 November 2002 the impact of applying the requirements of AASB 2 transition date is nil and on the current year ending 30 June 2005, is a reduction in profit and increase to the option reserve of $103,723 for the Company. Taxation Under AASB 112 Income Taxes, tax assets and liabilities are recognised using the balance sheet approach, which will result in a change in the entity's current accounting policy that uses the income statement approach. AASB 112 has a wider scope than the Company's current accounting policy. MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2005 23. IMPACT OF ADOPTING AUSTRALIAN EQUIVALENTS TO INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (Continued) Taxation (Continued) Due to the efforts to complete the settlement of Renison Bell Ltd creditor claims, consideration of potential new projects during the year, additional work had to be done to finalise AGAAP tax before finalising the AIFRS tax, and therefore the company has not been able to reliably quantify the potential impact. Management are monitoring and assessing the internal resources being utilised and are confident to finalise the process in the near future. Financial Instruments AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement will require financial instruments to be classified into one of the following categories which in turn determine the accounting treatment for the item. The classifications are: • Financial assets held for trading - which are to be measured at fair value changes applied through the Statement of Financial Performance; • Financial assets held to maturity - which are to be measured at amortised cost; • Loans and receivables - which are to be measured at amortised cost; • Available for sale financial assets - which are to be measured at fair value with fair value changes taken to equity; • Non-trading financial liabilities - which are to be measured at amortised cost. This will result in a change in the current accounting policy that does not classify financial instruments. Management has decided to apply the exemption provided in AASB 1 First time Adoption of Australian Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards which permits entities not to apply the requirements of AASB 132 Financial Instruments: Presentation and Disclosures and AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement for the financial year ended 30 June 2005. Therefore, there is no impact on transition at 1 July 2004 or in the comparative year for 30 June 2005. Impairment of Assets Under AASB 136 Impairment of Assets, the recoverable amount of an asset is determined as the higher of net selling price and value in use. This will result in a change in the Company's accounting policy, which determines the recoverable amount of an asset on the basis of undiscounted cash flows. Due to the efforts of management to complete the settlement of Renison Bell Ltd creditors claims and consideration of potential new projects the impact of AASB 136 has not been quantified, however management is now in the process of identifying and assessing impairment triggers for transition date and at 30 June 2005. However from an initial review management does not expect any significant impairment of assets.

MURCHISON UNITED NL (ABN 59 009 087 852) DIRECTORS' DECLARATION In accordance with a resolution of the directors of Murchison United NL, I state that: (1) In the opinion of the directors: (a) The financial statements and notes of the company are in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including: (i) giving a true and fair view of the financial position of the Company as at 30 June 2005 and of the Company's performance, as represented by the results of its operations and its cash flows, for the year ended on that date; and (ii) complying with Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001; and (b) there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Company will be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable. (2) This declaration has been made after receiving declarations required to be made to the directors in accordance with section 295A of the Corporations Act 2001 for the financial period ending 30 June 2005 On behalf of the Board ...................................................... MARK REILLY MANAGING DIRECTOR Dated at Perth this 22nd day of September 2005. Independent audit report to members of Murchison United NL Independent audit report to members of Murchison United NL Scope The financial report and directors' responsibility The financial report comprises the statement of financial position, statement of financial performance, statement of cash flows, accompanying notes to the financial statements, and the directors' declaration for Murchison United NL (the company), for the year ended 30 June 2005. The directors of the company are responsible for preparing a financial report that gives a true and fair view of the financial position and performance of the company, and that complies with Accounting Standards in Australia, in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001. This includes responsibility for the maintenance of adequate accounting records and internal controls that are designed to prevent and detect fraud and error, and for the accounting policies and accounting estimates inherent in the financial report. Audit approach We conducted an independent audit of the financial report in order to express an opinion on them to the members of the company. Our audit was conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards in order to provide reasonable assurance as to whether the financial report is free of material misstatement. The nature of an audit is influenced by factors such as the use of professional judgement, selective testing, the inherent limitations of internal control, and the availability of persuasive rather than conclusive evidence. Therefore, an audit cannot guarantee that all material misstatements have been detected. We performed procedures to assess whether in all material respects the financial report present fairly, in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including compliance with Accounting Standards in Australia, and other mandatory financial reporting requirements in Australia, a view which is consistent with our understanding of the company's financial position, and of its performance as represented by the results of its operations and cash flows. We formed our audit opinion on the basis of these procedures, which included: · • examining, on a test basis, information to provide evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial report; and · • assessing the appropriateness of the accounting policies and disclosures used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the directors. While we considered the effectiveness of management's internal controls over financial reporting when determining the nature and extent of our procedures, our audit was not designed to provide assurance on internal controls. We performed procedures to assess whether the substance of business transactions was accurately reflected in the financial report. These and our other procedures did not include consideration or judgement of the appropriateness or reasonableness of the business plans or strategies adopted by the directors and management of the company. Independence We are independent of the company, and have met the independence requirements of Australian professional ethical pronouncements and the Corporations Act 2001. We have given to the directors of the company a written Auditor's Independence Declaration a copy of which is included in the directors' report. Audit opinion In our opinion, the financial report of Murchison United NL is in accordance with: (a) the Corporations Act 2001, including: (i) giving a true and fair view of the financial position of Murchison United NL at 30 June 2005 and of its performance for the year ended on that date; and (ii) complying with Accounting Standards in Australia and the Corporations Regulations 2001; and (b) other mandatory financial reporting requirements in Australia.
