OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW

Operations

Highlights

Highlights during, and subsequent to the end of, the financial year include:

· Initial Shallow Core Drilling Program: a program of 32 shallow hollow auger core holes was completed over the entire surface of the Lake, forming the basis of the maiden resource estimate.

· Maiden Mineral Resource Estimate for Lake Wells: the Company completed its maiden JORC Mineral Resource estimate for the Lake Wells Project, totalling 29 million tonnes (Mt) of Sulphate of Potash (SOP) with approximately 80% in the 'Measured' category with excellent brine chemistry of 4,009 mg/L Potassium (K), 19,175 mg/L (SO4). The resource was calculated only on the upper 16 metres of the Lake, with mineralisation remaining open at depth across most of the Lake.

· Completion of Deeper Air Core Drill Program: A program of 27 air core drill holes for a total of 1,697m were drilled over the Lake. An average drill depth of 63m (ranging from 15m-126m) was achieved, confirming continuation of the brine pool at depth. The majority of holes ended in high grade brine, and the brine pool remains open at depth. The successful air core program identified permeable rock units (aquifers) at the base of the brine saturated sedimentary sequence, potentially representing a productive aquifer for brine extraction by pumping from bores.

· Deeper Resource Estimate: Based on the aircore drilling, an expanded Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) was calculated at Lake Wells totaling 80-85 million tonnes of SOP. This represents an additional 51-56 Mt of Inferred Resource calculated in the strata below the previously reported shallow Resource of 29 Mt.

· Geophysical Survey and Modelling: An extensive geophysical survey was completed, including gravity and passive seismic programs focused on paleochannel mapping and aquifer modelling.

· Initial Test Pumping: the Company competed initial test pumping of the paleochannel and surface aquifers at Lake Wells, returning very encouraging results. The test pumping provided aquifer permeability measurements within or exceeding the expected range for the paleochannel and surface aquifers, demonstrating the potential to draw very substantial brine flows from both the paleochannel and surface aquifers.

· Completion of a positive Scoping Study: which confirmed the potential of the Lake Wells Project to produce low cost SOP by solar evaporation of lake brines for domestic and international fertiliser markets. The Scoping Study (accuracy ±30%) prepared by global engineering firm, Amec Foster Wheeler, and other international experts, demonstrates excellent project fundamentals based on well-established solar evaporation and salt processing techniques. Based on the positive results of the Scoping Study, the Company will now proceed to a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS).

Lake Wells has the potential to be one of only five large scale salt lake SOP producers around the world and the Project's estimated cash production costs of A$185 per tonne (Stage 2) would be amongst the lowest in the world.

The Scoping Study is based on a two stage development plan for Lake Wells:

- Stage 1 is based on shallow trenching and bore production with 100% of brine feed drawn from the near surface Measured Resource.

- Stage 2 also includes pumping additional brine from the deeper Inferred Resource, to increase production to 400,000 tpa of SOP.

All-in capital costs total A$268 million for the 400,000 tpa production scenario, amongst the lowest capital intensity for any proposed potash project worldwide.

Next Steps

· Commencement of a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS): based on the positive results of the Scoping Study, the Company has commenced a PFS. During the PFS phase, the Company will undertake more detailed hydrological testwork and modelling, brine extraction optimisation and further infrastructure assessment aimed at identifying opportunities to enhance the Project economics through capital and operating cost reductions.

· Continued Exploration activities: including drilling, test pumping and other testwork are already underway, to upgrade the resource classification and increase the overall resource base. The targeted outcomes include an improved hydrogeological understanding of the performance of basal sand (deep bores) bores including draw down rates, productivity rates and bore and trench positions, as well as improved understanding of the potential productivity of the fractured siltstone aquifer.

· Field Evaporation Trial: A comprehensive field evaporation trial has commenced with the objective to optimise evaporation pond design from a flow, halite storage, and hydraulic perspective. The field trial will also produce large samples of product salts which can be used for marketing and testing purposes.

· Regional Lakes and Opportunities: The Company will also continue to investigate potential additional revenue streams for the Project and other opportunities for enhancement, including the benefits of an integrated Lake Wells-Lake Irwin operation.

Corporate

· Successful Placement Raising $8.9 million: the Company completed a placement of 27,775,000 ordinary shares to strategic and institutional investors in Australia and overseas, raising gross proceeds of $8.9 million.

· Appointment of Chief Executive Officer: Mr Matthew Syme, a Non-Executive Director of the Company, and accomplished mining executive, has been appointed as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Company after effectively acting as CEO.

Scoping Study

The Scoping Study (accuracy ±30%) prepared by global engineering firm, Amec Foster Wheeler, and other international experts, demonstrates excellent project fundamentals based on well-established solar evaporation and salt processing techniques. Based on the positive results of the Scoping Study, the Company will now proceed to a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS).

Lake Wells has the potential to be one of only five large scale salt lake SOP producers around the world and the Project's estimated cash production costs of A$185 per tonne (Stage 2) would be amongst the lowest in the world.

The Project will produce SOP from hypersaline brine extracted from Lake Wells via trenches and a combination of shallow and deep production bores. The extracted brine will be transported to a series of solar evaporation ponds built on the Lake where selective evapo-concentration will precipitate potassium double salts in the final evaporation stage. These potassium-rich salts will be mechanically harvested and processed into SOP in a crystallisation plant. The final product will then be transported for sale to the domestic and international markets.

The Scoping Study is based on a two stage development plan for Lake Wells:

- Stage 1 is based on shallow trenching and bore production with 100% of brine feed drawn from the near surface Measured Resource.

- Stage 2 also includes pumping additional brine from the deeper Inferred Resource, to increase production to 400,000 tpa of SOP.

Key Scoping Study results for Stage 1 and Stage 2:

The Scoping Study is based on the Project's Mineral Resource Estimate of 80-85 Mt of SOP in 9,691 GL of brine at an average of 8.7 kg/m3 of K2SO4. The Mineral Resource Estimate includes Measured and Indicated Resources of 26 Mt of SOP in the shallowest 20m of the Lake.

The Study has established the indicative costs of a two stage production operation, initially producing 200,000 tonnes per annum (tpa) and then 400,000 tpa of dried organic SOP. Stage 1 produces 200,000 tpa but includes most of the capital works required for a 400,000 tpa operation. Stage 2 will commence after initial capex is repaid by cashflow generated from the shallow Measured and Indicated Resource.

The Scoping Study results highlight the benefits of Lake Wells' location in the Northern Goldfields, with excellent access to gas and transportation infrastructure. Total Capex of A$268 million for 400,000 tpa of SOP is amongst the lowest capital intensity of any proposed potash project worldwide.

Opportunities have been identified to further optimise capital and operating costs through equipment lease financing, further operational refinements and partnerships. The Company will also continue to investigate potential additional revenue streams for the project.

Results of Operations

The net loss of the Consolidated Entity for the year ended 30 June 2016 was $4,645,028 (2015 restated: net loss of $1,348,856). This loss is mainly attributable to:

(i) Exploration and evaluation expenses of $3,191,159 (2015 restated: $191,882) which is attributable to the Group's accounting policy of expensing exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred by the Group subsequent to the acquisition of the rights to explore and up to the successful completion of definitive feasibility studies for each separate area of interest;

(ii) Non-cash share-based payment expenses of $163,448 (2015: nil) which is attributable to the Group's accounting policy of expensing the value (estimated using an option pricing model) of Incentive Options to key employees and consultants. The value is measured at grant date and recognised over the period during which the option holders become unconditionally entitled to the options and/or rights; and

(iii) Business development expenses of $365,354 (2015: $85,432) which is attributable to additional business development and investor relations activities required to support the growth and development of the Lake Wells Project, including travel costs associated with representing the Company at international conferences and investor meetings.

Financial Position

As at the date of this report, the Company had working capital in excess of $7 million which includes cash and cash equivalents.

At 30 June 2016, the Company had cash reserves of $7,498,285 (2015: $3,172,363), and no debt.

At 30 June 2016, the Company had net assets of $9,397,552 (restated 2015: $5,542,742), an increase of 70% compared with the previous year. This increase is consistent with the increase in cash reserves following the completion of the placement raising $8.9 million, which is offset by the comprehensive loss for the year of $4.6 million.

Business Strategies and Prospects for Future Financial Years

The objective of the Group is to create long-term shareholder value through the discovery, exploration and development of its projects.

To date, the Group has not commenced production of any minerals. To achieve its objective, the Group currently has the following business strategies and prospects:

(i) Complete a PFS on the Lake Wells Project;

(ii) Complete additional exploration activites including drilling,test pumping and other testwork; and

(iii) Complete a comprehensive field evaporation trial to optimise the definition of evaporation ponds and design.

All of these activities are inherently risky and the Board is unable to provide certainty of the expected results of these activities, or that any or all of these likely activities will be achieved. The material business risks faced by the Group that could have an effect on the Group's future prospects, and how the Group manages these risks, include:

The Company's exploration properties may never be brought into production - The exploration for, and development of, mineral deposits involves a high degree of risk. Few properties which are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines. To mitigate this risk, the Company will undertake systematic and staged exploration and testing programs on its mineral properties and, subject to the results of these exploration programs, the Company will then progressively undertake a number of technical and economic studies with respect to its projects prior to making a decision to mine. However there can be no guarantee that the studies will confirm the technical and economic viability of the Company's mineral properties or that the properties will be successfully brought into production;

The Company's activities will require further capital - The exploration and any development of the Company's exploration properties will require substantial additional financing. Failure to obtain sufficient financing may result in delaying or indefinite postponement of exploration and any development of the Company's properties or even a loss of property interest. There can be no assurance that additional capital or other types of financing will be available if needed or that, if available, the terms of such financing will be favourable to the Company;

The Company's exploration licence may be subject to Native title and Aboriginal Heritage - There may be areas over which legitimate common law and/or statutory Native Title rights of Aboriginal Australians exist. If Native Title rights do exist, the ability of the Company to gain access to the Projects (through obtaining consent of any relevant landowner), or to progress from the exploration phase to the development and mining phases of operations may be adversely affected;

The Company may be adversely affected by fluctuations in commodity prices - The price of potash and other commodities fluctuates widely and is affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company. Future production, if any, from the Company's mineral properties will be dependent upon the price of potash and other commodities being adequate to make these properties economic. The Company currently does not engage in any hedging or derivative transactions to manage commodity price risk. As the Company's operations change, this policy will be reviewed periodically going forward; and

Global financial conditions may adversely affect the Company's growth and profitability - Many industries, including the mineral resource industry, are impacted by these market conditions. Some of the key impacts of the current financial market turmoil include contraction in credit markets resulting in a widening of credit risk, devaluations and high volatility in global equity, commodity, foreign exchange and precious metal markets, and a lack of market liquidity. Due to the current nature of the Company's activities, a slowdown in the financial markets or other economic conditions may adversely affect the Company's growth and ability to finance its activities. If these increased levels of volatility and market turmoil continue, the Company's activities could be adversely impacted and the trading price of the Company's shares could be adversely affected.

NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2016

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The significant accounting policies adopted in preparing the financial report of Salt Lake Potash Limited (Salt Lake or Company) and its consolidated entities (Consolidated Entity or Group) for the year ended 30 June 2016 are stated to assist in a general understanding of the financial report.

Salt Lake is a Company limited by shares incorporated and domiciled in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), and the AIM Market (AIM) of the London Stock Exchange.

The financial report of the Group for the year ended 30 June 2016 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 23 September 2016.

Whilst the financial information included in this announcement has been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies and basis of preparation set out below, this announcement does not constitute the Company's statutory financial statements. The posting of the full audited financial statements of the Company and a notice of AGM will be announced in due course.

(a) Basis of Preparation

The financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards ("AASBs") and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board ("AASB") and the Corporations Act 2001. The Group is a for-profit entity for the purposes of preparing the consolidated financial statements.

The financial report has been prepared on a historical cost basis. The financial report is presented in Australian dollars.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

The Group has updated the classification of expenses to make the Statement of Profit or Loss and other Comprehensive Income more relevant to users of the financial report. This has resulted in the reclassification of some items in the prior year, however, has not impacted the reported loss for the year or earnings per share.

Discontinued operation

A discontinued operation is a component of the Group's business that represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations that has been disposed of or held for sale, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view of resale. Classification as a discontinued operation occurs upon disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale, if earlier. When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the comparative statement is restated as if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the comparative period.

Reclassification of comparative information

Certain comparatives have been reclassified to conform with the presentation and classification of the current financial year. Refer to note 1(d) for re-presentations made.

(b) Statement of Compliance

The financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

In the current year, the Group has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to its operations and effective for the current annual reporting period.

New and revised standards and amendments thereof and interpretations effective for the current reporting period that are relevant to the Group include:

(i) AASB 2015-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Withdrawal of AASB 1031 Materiality which completes the withdrawal of references to AASB 1031 in all Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations, allowing that standard to be effectively withdrawn.

The adoption of these new and revised standards has not resulted in any significant changes to the Group's accounting policies or to the amounts reported for the current or prior periods. The Group has not early adopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet effective have not been adopted by the Group for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2016. Those which may be relevant to the Group are set out in the table below, but these are not expected to have any significant impact on the Group's financial statements.

(c) Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of the Company as at 30 June 2016 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended.

Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the group has control. The group controls an entity when the group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity.

The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the Company, using consistent accounting policies. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Company.

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Company. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions and balances, income and expenses and profits and losses between Group companies, are eliminated.

(d) Change in Accounting Policy

The policy for accounting for exploration and evaluation expenditure has changed from the policy applied in previous reporting periods.

In previous reporting periods, all costs incurred in connection with the exploration and evaluation of areas with current rights of tenure were capitalised and recognised as an exploration and evaluation asset. Costs carried forward in respect of an area of interest that was abandoned were written off in the year in which the decision to abandon was made.

The policy has now changed, and the new policy has been applied retrospectively (with comparative information restated accordingly). Under the new policy:

- exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred in the acquisition of the rights to explore (including payments to landowners required under the Group's mineral leases) is capitalised and recognised as an exploration and evaluation asset; and

- exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred subsequent to the acquisition of the rights to explore will now be expensed as incurred, up to and until the final investment decision to commence construction.

The Directors are of the opinion that the change in accounting policy provides users with more relevant and no less reliable information as the policy is more transparent and less subjective. The policy is common of exploration focussed companies where exploration and evaluation expenditure is viewed as an ongoing expense of discovery, until a technical feasibility study has been completed. The impact of this change in accounting policy is reflected below.

For comparative purposes the accounts within the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position have changed by:

For comparative purposes the loss after tax has changed by:

Basic and diluted loss per share have also been restated. The amount of the impact on basic and diluted loss per share for the restated result for the year ended 30 June 2015 due to the change in accounting policy is an increase in loss per share of 0.47 cents.

(e) Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.

(f) Trade and Other Receivables

Trade receivables are recognised and carried at the original invoice amount less a provision for any uncollectable 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.

Receivables from related parties are recognised and carried at the nominal amount due and are interest free.

(g) Investments and Other Financial Assets

(i) Classification

Financial assets in the scope of AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement are classified as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, or available-for-sale investments, as appropriate. When financial assets are recognised initially they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs. The Group determines the classification of its financial assets after initial recognition and, when allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this designation at each financial year-end.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They arise when the Group provides money, goods or services directly to a debtor with no intention of selling the receivable. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than twelve months after the reporting date which are classified as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are included in receivables in the statement of financial position.

(ii) Recognition and derecognition

Purchases and sales of investments are recognised on trade-date - the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.

(iii) Subsequent measurement

Available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Loans and receivables and held-to-maturity investments are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the 'financial assets at fair value through profit or loss' category are included in the Statement of Profit or Loss and other Comprehensive Income in the period in which they arise. Unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of non-monetary securities classified as available-for-sale are recognised in equity in the investments available-for-sale reserve. When securities classified as available-for-sale are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments previously reported in equity are included in the Statement of Profit or Loss and other Comprehensive Income as gains and losses on disposal of investment securities.

(iv) Impairment

The Group assesses at each balance date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. In the case of equity securities classified as available-for-sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of a security below its cost is considered in determining whether the security is impaired. If any such evidence exists for available-for-sale financial assets, the cumulative loss - measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in Profit or loss - is transferred from equity to the Statement of Profit or Loss and other Comprehensive Income. Impairment losses recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss and other Comprehensive Income on equity instruments classified as held for sale are not reversed through the Statement of Profit or Loss and other Comprehensive Income.

(h) Property, Plant and Equipment

(i) Cost and valuation

All classes of property, plant and equipment are measured at historical cost.

Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Such cost includes the cost of replacing parts that are eligible for capitalisation when the cost of replacing the parts is incurred. Similarly, when each major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement only if it is eligible for capitalisation. All other repairs and maintenance are recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss and other Comprehensive Income as incurred.

(ii) Depreciation and Amortisation

Depreciation is provided on a straight line basis on all property, plant and equipment.

The assets' residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end.

(iii) Derecognition

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal.

(i) Exploration and Development Expenditure

Expenditure on exploration and evaluation is accounted for in accordance with the 'area of interest' method and with AASB 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources.

Exploration and evaluation expenditure encompasses expenditures incurred by the Group in connection with the exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources before the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource are demonstrable.

For each area of interest, expenditure incurred in the acquisition of rights to explore is capitalised, classified as tangible or intangible, and recognised as an exploration and evaluation asset. Exploration and evaluation assets are measured at cost at recognition and are recorded as an asset if:

(i) the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and

(ii) at least one of the following conditions is also met:

· the exploration and evaluation expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale; and

· exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not at the reporting date reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing.

Exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred by the Group subsequent to acquisition of the rights to explore is expensed as incurred, up to costs associated with the preparation of a feasibility study.

(i) Impairment

Capitalised exploration costs are reviewed each reporting date to establish whether an indication of impairment exists. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the capitalised exploration costs is estimated to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent 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 previous years.

Where a decision is made to proceed with development, accumulated expenditure is tested for impairment and transferred to development properties, and then amortised over the life of the reserves associated with the area of interest once mining operations have commenced. Recoverability of the carrying amount of the exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on successful development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively, sale of the respective areas of interest.

(j) Payables

Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods and services received. Trade accounts payable are normally settled within 60 days.

(k) Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured.

(l) Revenue Recognition

Interest income

Interest revenue is recognised on a time proportionate basis that takes into account the effective yield on the financial assets.

(m) Income Tax

The income tax expense for the period is the tax payable on the current period's taxable income based on the national income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted for each jurisdiction. The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences to measure the deferred tax asset or liability. An exception is made for certain temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability. No deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to these temporary differences if they arose on goodwill or in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in controlled entities where the Company is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

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 those temporary differences and losses.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.

Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against tax liabilities and the deferred tax liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

Tax consolidation

Salt Lake Potash Limited and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime. Each entity in the group recognises its own current and deferred tax liabilities, except for any deferred tax assets resulting from unused tax losses and tax credits, which are immediately assumed by the Company. The current tax liability of each group entity is then subsequently assumed by the Company. The tax consolidated group has entered a tax sharing agreement whereby each company in the Group contributes to the income tax payable in proportion to their contribution to the net profit before tax of the tax consolidated group.

(m) Employee Entitlements

Provision is made for the Group's liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within 12 months have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled, plus related on-costs. Employee benefits payable later than 12 months have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits.

(n) Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to members of the Company for the reporting period, after excluding any costs of servicing equity, by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares of the Company, adjusted for any bonus issue.

Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the basic EPS earnings, adjusted by the after tax effect of financing costs associated with dilutive potential Ordinary Shares and the effect on revenues and expenses of conversion to Ordinary Shares associated with dilutive potential Ordinary Shares, by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares and dilutive Ordinary Shares adjusted for any bonus issue.

(o) Goods and Services Tax

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST.

Cash flows are presented in the cash flow statement on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.

(p) Segment Reporting

An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the same entity), 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. This includes start-up operations which are yet to earn revenues. Management will also consider other factors in determining operating segments such as the existence of a line manager and the level of segment information presented to the Board of Directors.

Operating segments have been identified based on the information provided to the chief operating decision makers - being the executive management team.

Operating segments that meet the quantitative criteria as prescribed by AASB 8 are reported separately. However, an operating segment that does not meet the quantitative criteria is still reported separately where information about the segment would be useful to users of the financial statements.

Information about other business activities and operating segments that are below the quantitative criteria are combined and disclosed in a separate category for "all other segments".

(q) Acquisition of Assets

A group of assets may be acquired in a transaction which is not a business combination. In such cases the cost of the group is allocated to the individual identifiable assets (including intangible assets that meet the definition of and recognition criteria for intangible assets in AASB 138) acquired and liabilities assumed on the basis of their relative fair values at the date of purchase.

(r) Impairment of Assets

The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the asset's recoverable amount. An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets and the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash-generating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

An assessment is also made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset's revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life.

(s) Fair Value Estimation

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes.

The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as available-for-sale securities) is based on quoted market prices at the reporting date. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price; the appropriate quoted market price for financial liabilities is the current ask price.

The nominal value less estimated credit adjustments of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the Group for similar financial instruments.

(t) Issued and Unissued Capital

Ordinary Shares are classified as equity. Issued and paid up capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Company.

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.

(u) Foreign Currencies

(i) Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of each of the Group's entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the Company's functional and presentation currency.

(ii) Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the Statement Profit or Loss and other Comprehensive Income, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in equity to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in equity, otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the other Comprehensive Income.

(iii) Group companies

The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the Group's presentation currency are translated as follows:

· assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date;

· income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and

· items of equity are translated at the historical exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the group's foreign currency translation reserve in the statement of financial position. These differences are recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss and other Comprehensive Income in the period in which the operation is disposed.

(v) Share-Based Payments

Equity-settled share-based payments are provided to officers, employees, consultants and other advisors. These share-based payments are measured at the fair value of the equity instrument at the grant date. Fair value is determined using the Binomial option pricing model. Further details on how the fair value of equity-settled share based payments has been determined can be found in Note 21.

The fair value determined at the grant date is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Company's estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest. At each reporting date, the Company revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in profit or loss over the remaining vesting period, with a corresponding adjustment to the share based payments reserve.

Equity-settled share-based payments may also be provided as consideration for the acquisition of assets. Where Ordinary Shares are issued, the transaction is recorded at fair value based on the quoted price of the Ordinary Shares at the date of issue. The acquisition is then recorded as an asset or expensed in accordance with accounting standards.

(w) Use and Revision of Accounting Estimates, Judgements and Assumptions

The preparation of the financial report requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are described in the following notes:

· Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure (Note 10)

· Share-Based Payments (Note 21)

2. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Management has determined that the operating segments are based on reports reviewed by the chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, which are used to monitor performance and make strategic decisions. The business is considered from a geographic perspective.

Management assesses the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of contribution. This measure excludes items such as the effects of equity settled share based payments, unrealised gains and losses on financial instruments, interest income, corporate expenses, and other centralised expenses, which are not attributable to segments.

For the year ended 30 June 2016

Note:

1 Cash and cash equivalents held by the Parent entity is classified in Unallocated/Elimination.

For the year ended 30 June 2015

Note:

1 Cash and cash equivalents held by the Parent entity is classified in Unallocated/Elimination.

2. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

4. FINANCE INCOME

5. EXPENSES

6. INCOME TAX

Note:

1 Relates to the discontinued operations and has been included in the net loss from discontinued operations per note 3.

The benefit of deferred tax assets not brought to account will only be brought to account if:

· future assessable income is derived of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit to be realised;

· the conditions for deductibility imposed by tax legislation continue to be complied with; and

· no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Group in realising the benefit.

Deferred tax assets have not been recognised in respect to tax losses because it is not probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the Group can utilise the benefits there from.

(d) Tax Consolidation

The Company and its wholly-owned Australian resident entities have formed a tax consolidated group and are therefore taxed as a single entity. The head entity within the tax consolidated group is Salt Lake Potash Limited. 

7. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

8. TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES

9. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

10. EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION EXPENDITURE

Notes:

1 The ultimate recoupment of costs carried forward for exploration and evaluation is dependent on the successful development and commercial exploitation or sale of the respective areas of interest.

2 Impairment of the carrying value of Golden Eagle Uranium. The Company has completed its initial review of the project. Based on the available information, current economic conditions and the price of uranium it is not viable for the Company to undertake any further exploration activities at this time and accordingly, the project has been impaired to nil.

SOP Project

Salt Lake holds a number of large salt lake brine projects (Projects) in Western Australia, South Australia and the Northern Territory, each having potential to produce highly sought after Sulphate of Potash (SOP) for domestic and international fertiliser markets.

Golden Eagle Uranium Project

The Golden Eagle Uranium and Vanadium Project holds nine U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Uranium/Vanadium Mining Leases, covering 22.7 km2 located in the Uravan Mineral Belt, Colorado USA.

Resolutions of members will be decided by a show of hands unless a poll is demanded. On a show of hands each eligible voter present has one vote. However, where a person present at a general meeting represents personally or by proxy, attorney or representative more than one member, on a show of hands the person is entitled to one vote only despite the number of members the person represents.

On a poll each eligible member has one vote for each fully paid share held and a fraction of a vote for each partly paid share determined by the amount paid up on that share.

(iv) Changes to the Constitution

The Company's Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of the members present and voting at a general meeting of the Company. At least 28 days' written notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution must be given.
