CHAIRMAN'S LETTER

 

Dear Shareholders

It is with pleasure that I introduce the 2017 Annual Report of European Metals Holdings limited ("European Metals" or "the Company").

European Metals has made considerable progress throughout the 2017 Financial Year in its goal to develop the Cinovec Project and bring the project into production.

The highlight of the year has been the successful completion of the Company's Preliminary Feasibility Study ("PFS"), the highlights of which were announced in April. The PFS confirmed that Cinovec has the very real potential to be a low cost producer of lithium products.

The demand for lithium is at an all-time high and the consensus amongst all major sector commentators is that this demand is set to continue due to the dramatic growth in the Electric Vehicle market. The proximity of Cinovec to the major European vehicle manufacturers, along with the size of the deposit and its low cost nature, provide us with the confidence that the future of the project is very bright.

Other significant developments for the year have included the dramatic increase in the size of the JORC resource at Cinovec, and the declaration of the maiden ore reserve shortly after the date of this report. We have secured a number of important permits for the project and taken significant steps towards the grant of the mining license.

Work done as part of the PFS lead to significant developments throughout the year such as the production of battery grade lithium carbonate and considerable improvements in lithium recoveries and process cost savings.

From a Corporate perspective, we welcomed our Country Manager, Richard Pavlik to the Board. Richard is a very experienced Czech mining executive and his knowledge of the industry has already proven invaluable to the Company. Coinciding with Richard's appointment, Pavel Reichl stepped down for the Board to pursue other interests. Pavel was instrumental in securing the licenses over Cinovec in 2010 and the Board would like to thank him for his exceptional service.

The next year looms as a very busy one for European Metals as we enter our Definitive Feasibility Study against a very positive backdrop of the market for battery supply chain metals, and therefore lithium. We have made very strong appointments in our DFS study team in Craig Reimer and Grant Harman and look forward to delivering a positive study to our shareholders towards the end of next year. The contribution of the entire European Metals team has been much appreciated by the Board in bringing the Company to this stage.

Finally, I would like to thank our shareholders for their ongoing support as we enter the next stage of project development. We look forward to sharing further successes in the future.

David Reeves

CHAIRMAN

PROJECT REVIEW

Cinovec Lithium/Tin Project

European Metals owns 100% of the Cinovec lithium-tin project in the Czech Republic, through its wholly owned subsidiary Geomet s.r.o. Cinovec is an historic mine incorporating a significant undeveloped lithium-tin resource with by-product potential including tungsten, rubidium, scandium, niobium and tantalum and potash. Cinovec hosts a globally significant hard rock lithium deposit with a total Indicated Mineral Resource of 348Mt @ 0.45% Li₂0 and 0.04% Sn and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 309Mt @ Li₂0 and 0.04% Sn containing a combined 7.0 million tonnes Lithium Carbonate Equivalent and 263kt of tin.

An initial Probable Ore Reserve of 34.5Mt @ 0.65% Li₂0 and 0.09% Sn has been declared to cover the first 20 years mining at an output of 20,800tpa of lithium carbonate.

This makes Cinovec the largest lithium deposit in Europe, the fourth largest non-brine deposit in the world and a globally significant tin resource.

The deposit has previously had over 400,000 tonnes of ore mined as a trial sub-level open stope underground mining operation.

The recently completed Preliminary Feasibility Study, conducted by specialist independent consultants, returned a post-tax NPV of USD540m and an IRR of 21% and confirmed that it had the potential to be a low cost producer of battery grade lithium carbonate.  Cinovec is centrally located for European end-users and is well serviced by infrastructure, with a sealed road adjacent to the deposit, rail lines located 5 km north and 8 km south of the deposit and an active 22 kV transmission line running to the historic mine. As the deposit lies in an active mining region, it has strong community support.

The economic viability of Cinovec has been enhanced by the recent strong increase in demand for lithium globally, and within Europe specifically. The project lies in close proximity to a number of potentially significant end users, notably automobile manufacturers. The recent increase in demand for lithium globally has emanated from the automobile industry as demand for electric vehicles rises. Recent research from a number of global commentators predicts that this increase in demand will continue.

Project Development

Drilling and Resource Delineation

·      Project development for the year was centered on a significant drilling program embarked upon by the Company. There were numerous updates to this program released to the market during the period. Overall, results from the program either confirmed or exceeded expectations with respect of both lithium content and width of mineralisation.

·      In November 2016, the Company announced a significant increase in the indicated resource at Cinovec. This upgrade was a result of the drilling program to that point and increased the indicated resource by approximately 420%.

·      The Company announced a further substantial upgrade of its Resource in February 2017.

·      The extensive seven-month drilling campaign at Cinovec was completed early in 2017 and consisted of 17 holes for 6,081 meters. The program was designed to increase the confidence in the resource base and to upgrade a significant part of the resource from the Inferred category to the higher confidence Indicated category. The program was successful in achieving this.

·      The Company commenced a focused infill drilling program at Cinovec South in May to test a gap in the geological model.

Preliminary Feasibility Study

·      This drilling program provided important data to the Company's Preliminary Feasibility Study ("PFS") which was ongoing throughout the period. The Company released various updates with regards to this study throughout the year, and the completion at the end of March 2017.

·      Highlights of the work program for the PFS included a significant reduction of pre-production capital costs and outstanding recoveries, and the successful manufacture of >99.5% pure lithium carbonate using an industry proven, sodium sulphate roast-based flow-sheet.

·      In April, the Company successfully completed the PFS highlighting that Cinovec could be a very low cost lithium carbonate producer with attractive economic returns.

Other Developments 

·      Mr Richard Pavlik was appointed to the position of Country Manager in early January and appointed to the board of European Metals Holdings Limited in June.

·      The Cinovec South Resource was added to the Czech State resource register in early January 2017. This is the first step in the process for the granting of a mining permit.

·      The Company was granted a new exploration license, Cinovec III. The license covers a small area above the Cinovec deposit itself along the Czech-German border, and also grants exclusive rights to explore for potential deep-seated lithium ore East of the Cinovec deposit.

All the developments indicate significant enhancements to the economics of Cinovec Project which have now been reflected in the Preliminary Feasibility Study. The Company will move directly into a definitive feasibility study to accelerate the project towards development.

Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve Statement

Based upon the Preliminary Feasibility Study undertaken for the Cinovec Project, the Company declares a maiden Probable Ore Reserve of 34.5 Mt @ 0.65% Li₂O, as detailed below. The Probable Reserve has been declared solely from the Indicated Mineral Resource category and are classified based on a PFS level of study and category of Mineral Resource.

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)

This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each Director of the Company, and Key Management Personnel. The directors are pleased to present the remuneration report which sets out the remuneration information for European Metals Holdings Limited's non-executive directors, executive directors and other key management personnel.

A. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration 

The remuneration policy of the Group has been designed to align Director and management objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component, and offering specific long-term incentives based on key performance areas affecting the Group financial results. The Board of the Company believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best management and Directors to run and manage the Group, as well as create goal congruence between Directors, Executives and shareholders.

The Board's policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Board members and Senior Executives of the Group is as follows:

The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the Executive Directors and other Senior Executives, was developed by the Board. All Executives receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience), superannuation, options and performance incentives. The Board reviews Executive packages annually by reference to the Group's performance, executive performance, and comparable information from industry sectors and other listed companies in similar industries.

Executives are also entitled to participate in the employee share and option arrangements.

All remuneration paid to Directors and Executives is valued at the cost to the Group and expensed. 

The Board policy is to remunerate Non-executive Directors at commercial market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment, and responsibilities. The Board determines payments to the Non-executive Directors and reviews their remuneration annually based on market practice, duties, and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to Non-executive Directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. Fees for Non- Executive Directors are not linked to the performance of the Group. However, to align Directors' interests with shareholder interests, the Directors are encouraged to hold CDIs in the Company.

The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase the direct positive relationship between shareholders' investment objectives and Directors' and Executives' performance. Currently, this is facilitated through the issue of options to the majority of Directors and Executives to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests. The Company believes this policy will be effective in increasing shareholder wealth. For details of Directors' and Executives' interests in CDIs, options and performance shares at year end, refer to the remuneration report.

B. Details of Remuneration

Details of the nature and amount of each element of the emoluments of each of the KMP of the Company (the Directors) for the year ended 30 June 2017 and 30 June 2016 are set out in the following tables:

Description of Performance Shares

The terms of the B Class Performance Shares are as follows:

The 5,000,000 B Class Performance Shares will convert in accordance with the below:

(i)         1,000,000 B Class Performance Shares will convert into Shares and an equivalent number of CDIs upon the Company's Mineral Resource at Cinovec South and Cinovec Main being entered in the State Balance. The B Class Performance Shares shall convert into the number of Shares and equivalent number of CDIs equal to 1,000,000 multiplied by 0.5 and divided by the greater of: (A) $0.50 per CDI; and (B) the volume weighted average price of CDIs (expressed as a decimal of $1.00) as calculated over the 5 ASX trading days prior to the date the Mineral Resource is entered. (Explanatory Note: Under Czech law a mineral resource must be registered and henceforth treated as a resource by the Czech Government before mining licenses can be granted. A mineral resource has to be calculated according to the Czech regulations, and defended in front of a committee of state certified experts);

(ii)       1,000,000 B Class Performance Shares will convert into Shares and an equivalent number of CDIs upon the issuance of the preliminary mining licenses relating to the Cinovec Project. The B Class Performance Shares shall convert into the number of Shares and equivalent number of CDIs equal to 1,000,000 multiplied by 0.5 and divided by the greater of: (A) $0.50 per CDI; and (B) the volume weighted average price of CDIs (expressed as a decimal of $1.00) as calculated over the 5 ASX trading days prior to the date the final preliminary mining license is issued; and

(iii)      3,000,000 B Class Performance Shares will convert into Shares and an equivalent number of CDIs upon the completing of a definitive feasibility study (DFS). For clarity, the DFS must be: (i) of a standard suitable to be submitted to a financial institution as the basis for lending of funds for the development and operation of mining activities contemplated in the study; (ii) capable of supporting a decision to mine on the Permits; and (iii) completed to an accuracy of +/- 15% with respect to operating and capital costs and display a pre-tax net present value of not less than US$250,000,000. The B Class Performance Shares shall convert into the number of Shares and equivalent number of CDIs equal to 3,000,000 multiplied by 0.5 and divided by the greater of: (A) $0.50 per CDI; and (B) the volume weighted average price of CDIs (expressed as a decimal of $1.00) as calculated over the 5 ASX trading days prior to date of receipt of the completed DFS,

           (together the Milestones and each a Milestone).  For the avoidance of doubt, the number of Shares and equivalent number of CDIs which will be issued on conversion of the B Class Performance Shares will not exceed a ratio of 1 for 1.

(iv)       If the Milestone is not achieved or the Change of Control Event does not occur by the required date, then each B Class Performance Share held by a Holder will be automatically redeemed by the Company for the sum of $0.000001 within 10 ASX trading days of non-satisfaction of the Milestone.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2017

NOTE 1:  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a)	Basis of preparation
	These consolidated financial statements and notes represent those of European Metals Holdings Limited ("the Company") and Controlled Entities (the "Consolidated Group" or "Group"). The separate financial statements of the parent entity, European Metals Holdings Limited, have not been presented within this financial report as is permitted by Corporations Act 2001. The financial statements are general purpose financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Boards (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001. The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards. The accounting policies detailed below have been adopted in the preparation of the financial report. Except for cash flow information, the financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and are based on historical cost, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair values of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.  The Group is a listed public company, incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and registered in Australia.
(i)	Accounting policies
	The Group has consistently applied the following accounting policies to all periods presented in the financial statements. The Group has considered the implications of new and amended Accounting Standards applicable for annual reporting periods beginning after 1 January 2017 but determined that their application to the financial statements is either not relevant or not material.
(ii)	Statement of Compliance
	The financial report was authorised for issue on 29 September 2017. Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in the financial statements containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the IASB.
(iii)	Going Concern
	The directors have prepared the financial statements on going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and extinguishment of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. At 30 June 2017, the consolidated entity comprising the Company and its subsidiaries has incurred a loss for the year amounting to $4,145,872. The Consolidated entity has a net working capital of $387,570, current liabilities of $332,250 and cash and cash equivalents of $446,112. The directors consider these funds, combined with additional funds from any capital raising to be sufficient for planned expenditure on the mineral project for the ensuing 12 months as well as for corporate and administrative overhead costs. The directors also believe that they have the capacity to raise additional capital should that become necessary. For these reasons, the directors believe the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate.
(iv)	Critical accounting estimates and judgements
	The application of accounting policies requires the use of judgements, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if it affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.  Share-based payment transactions The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted.

NOTE 1:  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(iv)			Critical accounting estimates and judgements (continued)
			Impairment of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure The future recoverability of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is dependent on a number of factors, including whether the Group decides to exploit the related lease itself or, if not, whether it successfully recovers the related exploration and evaluation asset through sale. Factors that could impact the future recoverability include the level of reserves and resources, future technological changes, which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes (including changes to environmental restoration obligations) and changes to commodity prices. To the extent that capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is determined not to be recoverable in the future, profits and net assets will be reduced in the period in which this determination is made. Recognition of deferred tax assets Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses have not been recognised as the Directors are of the opinion that it is not probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax assets can be utilised.
(b)			Income Tax
			Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at reporting date.  Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority. Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well unused tax losses. Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available.  No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at reporting date.  Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability. Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised. Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.
(c)			Impairment of assets
			At the end of each reporting period the Group assesses 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 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. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset unless the asset is carried at revalued amount in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease. An assessment is also made at each reporting period 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 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.
(d)			Cash and cash equivalents
			Cash and cash equivalents includes 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 in the Statement of Financial Position.
(e)			Revenue
			Interest
			Interest revenue is recognised on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets.
(f)			Goods and Services Tax (GST)
			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 an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the Statement of Financial Position are shown inclusive of GST. Cash flows are presented in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
(g)			Trade and other receivables
			Trade receivables are measured on initial recognition at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less any allowance for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days. Impairment of trade receivables is continually reviewed and those that are considered to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly.  An allowance account is used when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original contractual terms. Factors considered by the Group in making this determination include known significant financial difficulties of the debtor, review of financial information and significant delinquency in making contractual payments to the Group. The impairment allowance is set equal to the difference between the carrying amount of the receivable and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. Where receivables are short-term discounting is not applied in determining the allowance. The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the profit and loss within other expenses. When a trade receivable for which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in the profit and loss.
(h)			Finance Income and Finance Costs
			Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested (including available-for-sale financial assets), dividend income, gains on the disposal of available-for-sale financial assets, changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, and gains on hedging instruments that are recognised in profit or loss. Interest income is recognised as it accrues in profit or loss, using the effective interest method.
(i)			Government Grants
			An unconditional government grant is recognised in profit or loss as other income when the grant becomes receivable. Grants that compensate the Group for expenses incurred are recognised in profit or loss as other income on a systematic basis in the same period in which the expenses are recognised. Research and development tax incentives are recognised in the statement of profit or loss when received or when the amount to be received can be reliably estimated.
(j)			Employee Benefits
			Short-term benefits
			Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
			Other long-term employee benefits
			Provision is made for the liability due to employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to the reporting date. Employee benefits expected to be settled within one year together with benefits arising out of wages and salaries, sick leave and annual leave which will be settled after one year, have been measured at their nominal amount. Other employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. Contributions made to defined employee superannuation funds are charged as expenses when incurred.
(k)			Exploration and Evaluation Assets
			Exploration and evaluation costs, including costs of acquiring licenses, are capitalised as exploration and evaluation assets on an area of interest basis. Costs of acquiring licences which are pending the approval of the relevant regulatory authorities as at the date of reporting are capitalised as exploration and evaluation cost if in the opinion of the Directors it is virtually certain the Group will be granted the licences. Exploration and evaluation assets are only recognised if the rights of tenure to the area of interest are current and either: (a)  The expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest, or (b)   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 assets are assessed for impairment when: (i)    Sufficient data exists to determine technical feasibility and commercial viability, and (ii)   Facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount (see impairment accounting policy in Note 1(c). For the purposes of impairment testing, exploration and evaluation assets are allocated to cash-generating units to which exploration activity relates. The cash generating unit shall not be larger than the area of interest. Once the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the extraction of mineral resources in an area of interest are demonstrable, exploration and evaluation assets attributable to that area of interest are first tested for impairment and then reclassified from intangible assets to mining property and development assets within property, plant and equipment.
(l)			Financial Instruments
			Initial recognition and measurement
			Financial instruments, incorporating financial assets and financial liabilities, are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Trade date accounting is adopted for financial assets that are delivered within timeframes established by marketplace convention. Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transactions costs where the instrument is not classified as at fair value through profit or loss. Transaction costs related to instruments classified as at fair value through profit or loss are expensed to profit or loss immediately. Financial instruments are classified and measured as set out below.
			Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss
			Financial assets are classified at "fair value through profit or loss" when they are held for trading for the purpose of short term profit taking, derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or when the are designated as such to avoid an accounting mismatch or to enable performance evaluation where a Group of financial assets is managed by key management personnel on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in carrying amount being included in profit or loss.
			Loans and receivables
			Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market.  Such assets are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs.  Subsequent to initial recognition loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. Loans and receivables are included in current assets, except for those which are not expected to mature within 12 months after the end of the reporting period. All other loans and receivables are classified as non-current assets.
(l)			Financial Instruments (continued)
			Held-to-maturity investments
			Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable payments and it is the Group's intention to hold these investments to maturity.  Such assets are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs.  They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less any impairment losses. Held-to-maturity investments are included in non-current assets, except for those which are expected to mature within 12 months after the end of the reporting period. All other investments are classified as current assets. If during the period the Group sold or reclassified more than an insignificant amount of the held-to-maturity investments before maturity, the entire held-to-maturity investments category would be tainted and reclassified as available-for-sale.
			Available-for-sale financial assets
			Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either not suitable to be classified into other categories of financial assets due to their nature, or they are designated as such by management. They comprise investments in the equity of other entities where there is neither a fixed maturity nor fixed or determinable payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at fair value and changes therein, other than impairment losses and foreign exchange gains and losses on available-for-sale monetary items, are recognised as a separate component of equity.  When an investment is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss in equity is transferred to profit and loss. Available-for-sale financial assets are included in non-current assets, except for those which are expected to mature within 12 months after the end of the reporting period. All other available-for-sale financial assets are classified as current assets.
			Financial liabilities
			Non-derivative financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs.  Subsequent to initial recognition, these financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
			Fair value
			Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm's length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models.
			Derecognition
			Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to cash flow expires or the asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset.  Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are either discharged, cancelled or expired.  The difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.
(m)			Trade and other payables
			Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised cost and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial period that are unpaid and arise when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services.  Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months.
(n)			Earnings Per CDI
			Basic earnings per CDI
			Basic earnings per CDI is determined by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company, by the weighted average number of CDIs outstanding during the period, adjusted for bonus elements in CDIs issued during the period.
			Diluted earnings per CDI
			Diluted earnings per CDI adjusts the figure used in the determination of basic earnings per CDI to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financial costs associated with dilutive potential CDIs and the weighted average number of CDIs assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential CDIs, which comprise convertible notes and CDI options granted.
(o)			Borrowing Costs
			Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognised in income in the period in which they are incurred.
(p)			Provisions
			A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation.  Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.
(q)			Segment reporting
			An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Group's other components. Operating segments' results are reviewed by the Group's Managing Director to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available.
(r)			CDI based payments
			The grant date fair value of CDI-based payment awards granted to employees is recognised as an employee expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period that the employees unconditionally become entitled to the awards. The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service and non-market vesting conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised as an expense is based on the number of awards that do not meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date. For CDI-based payment awards with non-vesting conditions, the grant date fair value of the CDI-based payment is measured to reflect such conditions and there is no true-up for differences between expected and actual outcomes.
(s)			Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances
			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 parent entity's functional and presentation currency. Transaction 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 Profit or Loss, 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 other comprehensive income; otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in Profit or Loss. 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 the end of the reporting period; - Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and - Retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations recognised in the other comprehensive income and included in the foreign currency translation reserve in the Statement of Financial Position. These differences are reclassified into Profit or Loss in the period in which the operation is disposed.
	(t)		Issued capital
			CDIs are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new CDIs or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new CDIs or options for the acquisition of a new business are not included in the cost of acquisition as part of the purchase consideration.
(u)		Principles of Consolidation
		The consolidated financial statements incorporate all of the assets, liabilities and results of the parent European Metals Holdings Limited and all of the subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are entities the parent controls. The parent controls an entity when it 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 over the entity. A list of the subsidiaries is provided in Note 20. The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial statements of the Group from the date on which control is obtained by the Group. The consolidation of a subsidiary is discontinued from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between Group entities are fully eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed and adjustments made where necessary to ensure uniformity of the accounting policies adopted by the Group. Equity interests in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Group are presented as "non-controlling interests". The Group initially recognises non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests in subsidiaries and are entitled to a proportionate share of the subsidiary's net assets on liquidation at either fair value or at the non-controlling interests' proportionate share of the subsidiary's net assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, non-controlling interests are attributed their share of profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income. Non-controlling interests are shown separately within the equity section of the statement of financial position and statement of comprehensive income.

NOTE 2:  DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES
A number of the Group's accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and / or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability. CDI-based payment transactions The fair value of the employee CDI options and the share appreciation right is measured using the Black-Scholes formula. Measurement inputs include CDI price on measurement date, exercise price of the instrument, expected volatility (based on weighted average historic volatility adjusted for changes expected due to publicly available information), weighted average expected life of the instruments (based on historical experience and general option holder behaviour), expected dividends, and the risk-free interest rate (based on government bonds). Service and non-market performance conditions attached to the transactions are not taken into account in determining fair value.

NOTE 7: BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER CDI	2017	2016
Basic and diluted loss per CDI (cents)	(3.28)	(1.78)

Weighted average number of CDI outstanding during the year	126,508,202	89,471,195
The Group is in a loss making position and it is unlikely that the conversion to, calling of, or subscription for, CDI capital in respect of potential CDIs would lead to diluted earnings per CDI that shows an inferior view of the earnings per CDI. For this reason, the diluted losses per CDI for the year ended 30 June 2017 are the same as basic loss per CDI.

The terms of the B Class Performance Shares are as follows:

The 5,000,000 B Class Performance Shares will convert in accordance with the below:

(i)         1,000,000 B Class Performance Shares will convert into Shares and an equivalent number of CDIs upon the Company's Mineral Resource at Cinovec South and Cinovec Main being entered in the State Balance. The B Class Performance Shares shall convert into the number of Shares and equivalent number of CDIs equal to 1,000,000 multiplied by 0.5 and divided by the greater of: (A) $0.50 per CDI; and (B) the volume weighted average price of CDIs (expressed as a decimal of $1.00) as calculated over the 5 ASX trading days prior to the date the Mineral Resource is entered. (Explanatory Note: Under Czech law a mineral resource must be registered and henceforth treated as a resource by the Czech Government before mining licenses can be granted. A mineral resource has to be calculated according to the Czech regulations, and defended in front of a committee of state certified experts);

(ii)       1,000,000 B Class Performance Shares will convert into Shares and an equivalent number of CDIs upon the issuance of the preliminary mining licenses relating to the Cinovec Project. The B Class Performance Shares shall convert into the number of Shares and equivalent number of CDIs equal to 1,000,000 multiplied by 0.5 and divided by the greater of: (A) $0.50 per CDI; and (B) the volume weighted average price of CDIs (expressed as a decimal of $1.00) as calculated over the 5 ASX trading days prior to the date the final preliminary mining license is issued; and

(iii)      3,000,000 B Class Performance Shares will convert into Shares and an equivalent number of CDIs upon the completing of a definitive feasibility study (DFS). For clarity, the DFS must be: (i) of a standard suitable to be submitted to a financial institution as the basis for lending of funds for the development and operation of mining activities contemplated in the study; (ii) capable of supporting a decision to mine on the Permits; and (iii) completed to an accuracy of +/- 15% with respect to operating and capital costs and display a pre-tax net present value of not less than US$250,000,000. The B Class Performance Shares shall convert into the number of Shares and equivalent number of CDIs equal to 3,000,000 multiplied by 0.5 and divided by the greater of: (A) $0.50 per CDI; and (B) the volume weighted average price of CDIs (expressed as a decimal of $1.00) as calculated over the 5 ASX trading days prior to date of receipt of the completed DFS,

           (together the Milestones and each a Milestone).  For the avoidance of doubt, the number of Shares and equivalent number of CDIs which will be issued on conversion of the B Class Performance Shares will not exceed a ratio of 1 for 1.

(iv)       If the Milestone is not achieved or the Change of Control Event does not occur by the required date, then each B Class Performance Share held by a Holder will be automatically redeemed by the Company for the sum of $0.000001 within 10 ASX trading days of non-satisfaction of the Milestone.

$2,671,444 has been attributed to the Performance Shares.

(e) Capital risk management

The Group's objectives when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it may continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.

The capital structure of the Group consists of equity comprising issued capital, reserves and accumulated losses.

Due to the nature of the Group's activities, being mineral exploration, the Group does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the primary source of funding being equity raisings. Therefore, the focus of the Group's capital risk management is to maintain sufficient current working capital position to meet the requirements of the Group to meet exploration programs and corporate overheads. The Group's strategy is to ensure appropriate liquidity is maintained to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required.

The working capital position of the Group at 30 June is as follows:

		2017	2016
		$	$
Cash and cash equivalents		446,112	3,134,661
Other receivables		236,103	94,591
Trade and other payables		(332,250)	(293,890)
		349,965	2,935,362

The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

NOTE 18: OPERATING SEGMENTS

The accounting policies used by the Group in reporting segments are in accordance with the measurement principles of Australian Accounting Standards.

The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are provided to the Board of Directors. According to AASB 8 Operating Segments, two or more operating segments may be aggregated into a single operating segment if the segments have similar economic characteristics, and the segments are similar in each of the following respects:

- The nature of the products and services;

- The nature of the production processes;

- The type or class of customer for their products and services;

- The methods used to distribute their products or provide their services; and

- If applicable, the nature of the regulatory environment, for example; banking, insurance and public utilities.

The Group currently has one project which takes into account each of the above mentioned aspects. The principal activity for the project is exploration of Lithium. This is expected to be the same for future projects. Accordingly, management has identified one operating segment based on the location of the project, that being the Czech Republic and two geographical segments.

NOTE 19: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Group's financial instruments consist mainly of deposits with banks, equity instruments and accounts receivable and payable.

The main purpose of non-derivative financial instruments is to raise finance for Group's operations. The Group does not speculate in the trading of derivative instruments.

The Group holds the following financial instruments:

		2017 $	2016 $
Financial assets
Cash and cash equivalents		446,112	3,134,661
Other receivables		236,103	94,591
Total financial assets		682,215	3,229,252
Trade and other payables		332,250	293,890
Total financial liabilities		332,250	293,890

The fair value of the Group's financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying value.

Specific Financial Risk Exposures and Management

The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk) credit risk and liquidity risk.

(i)            Market risk

The Board meets on a regular basis to analyse currency and interest rate exposure and to evaluate treasury management strategies in the context of the most recent economic conditions and forecasts.

Interest rate risk

Exposure to interest rate risk arises on financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at the end of the reporting period whereby a future change in interest rates will affect future cash flows or the fair value of fixed rate financial instruments. The Group is also exposed to earnings volatility on floating rate instruments.

Interest rate risk is not material to the Group as no interest bearing debt arrangements have been entered into.

Price risk

Price risk relates to the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. The Group is not exposed to securities price risk as it does not hold any investments.

Foreign exchange risk

Exposure to foreign exchange risk may result in the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument fluctuating due to movement in foreign exchange rates of currencies in which the Group holds financial instruments which are other than the AUD functional currency of the Group.

With instruments being held by overseas operations, fluctuations in foreign currencies may impact on the Group's financial results.  The Group's exposure to foreign exchange risk is monitored by the Board. The majority of the Group's funds are held in Australian dollars, British Stirling and Czech Koruna..

At 30 June 2017, the group has financial assets and liabilities denominated in the foreign currencies detailed below:

Geomet   S.R.O                      

	2017			2016
	Amount in CZK	Amount in GBP	Amount in AUD	Amount in CZK	Amount in GBP	Amount in AUD
Cash and cash equivalents	-	-	-	-	-	-
Intercompany payables	-	31,000	3,567,245	-	31,000	1,112,243
	-	31,000	3,567,245	-	31,000	1,112,243
5% effect in foreign exchange rates		1,550	178,362	-	1,550	55,612

There were no financial assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies for EMH UK and the Company.

(ii)           Credit risk

Credit exposure represents the extent of credit related losses that the Group may be subject to on amounts to be received from financial assets. Credit risk arises principally from trade and other receivables. The objective of the Group is to minimise the risk of loss from credit risk. Although revenue from operations is minimal, the Group trades only with creditworthy third parties. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group's exposure to bad debts is insignificant. The Group's maximum credit risk exposure is limited to the carrying value of its financial assets as indicated on the Statement of Financial Position and notes to the financial statements.

The credit quality of the financial assets was high during the year.  The table below details the credit quality of the financial assets at the end of the year:

		2017	2016
Financial assets	Credit Quality	$	$
Cash and cash equivalents held at BGFI Bank	High	-	-
Cash and cash equivalents held at Komercni Bank	High	31,128	365,399
Cash and cash equivalents held at Westpac Bank
·      Interest-bearing deposit	High	401,368	2,769,262
Cash and cash equivalents held at ANZ bank	High	13,616	-
Other receivables and deposits	High	236,103	94,591
		682,215	3,229,252

Impairment losses

$55 amount due from other debtor was past due and impaired for during the year.

(iii)          Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the entity will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The objective of the Group is to maintain sufficient liquidity to meet commitments under normal and stressed conditions.

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities, and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities. Due to the lack of material revenue, the Group aims at maintaining flexibility in funding by maintaining adequate reserves of liquidity.

The Group did not have access to any undrawn borrowing facilities at the reporting date. In June 2017, the Company entered into an interim funding facility. This facility has been provided by an Australian based sophisticated investor, 6466 Investments Pty Ltd, and allows for the drawdown of up to AUD 2 million in tranches as required over 12 months. Any funds drawn down will convert to CDI's in the Company at a 10% discount to the 10 day VWAP in the Company's securities. The funds will be used in the preparation of the Company's Definitive Feasibility Study, for further drilling and general working capital. The issue of shares pursuant to draw downs does not require shareholder approval.

The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including estimated interest payments and excluding the impact of netting arrangements.

(iv)          Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

From time to time the Group has significant interest bearing assets, but they are as a result of the timing of equity raising and capital expenditure rather than a reliance on interest income. The interest rate risk arises on the rise and fall of interest rates. The Group's income and operating cash flows are not expected to be materially exposed to changes in market interest rates in the future and the exposure to interest rates is limited to the cash and cash equivalents balances. 

The Group's exposure to interest rate risk, which is the risk that a financial instrument's value will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates and the effective weighted average interest rates on classes of financial assets and financial liabilities:

Cash flow sensitivity analysis for variable rate instruments

A change of 100 basis points in the interest rates at the reporting date would have increased or decreased the Group's equity and profit or loss by $4,461 (2016: $31,347).

(v)           Net fair value of financial assets and liabilities

The net fair value of cash and cash equivalents and non-interest bearing monetary assets and financial liabilities approximates their carrying values.

Except for the matters noted above there have been no other significant events arising after the reporting date.

NOTE 25:  NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS FOR APPLICATION IN FUTURE PERIODS

Accounting Standards issued by the AASB that are not yet mandatory applicable to the Group, together with an assessment of the potential impact of such pronouncements on the Group when adopted in future periods, as discussed below:

AASB 9: Financial Instruments and associated Amending Standards (applicable for annual reporting period commencing 1 January 2018)

The Standard will be applicable retrospectively (subject to the provisions on hedge accounting outlined below) and includes revised requirements for the classification and measurement of financial instruments, revised recognition and derecognition requirements for financial instruments and simplified requirements for hedge accounting.

The key changes that may affect the Group on initial application include certain simplifications to the classification of financial assets, simplifications to the accounting of embedded derivatives, upfront accounting for expected credit loss, and the irrevocable election to recognise gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading in other comprehensive income. AASB 9 also introduces a new model for hedge accounting that will allow greater flexibility in the ability to hedge risk, particularly with respect to hedges of non-financial items. Should the entity elect to change its hedge policies in line with the new hedge accounting requirements of the Standard, the application of such accounting would be largely prospective.

Although the directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 9 may have an impact on the Group's financial instruments it is impractical at this stage to provide a reasonable estimate of such impact.

AASB 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers (applicable to annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2018).

When effective, this Standard will replace the current accounting requirements applicable to revenue with a single, principles-based model. Apart from a limited number of exceptions, including leases, the new revenue model in AASB 15 will apply to all contracts with customers as well as non-monetary exchanges between entities in the same line of business to facilitate sales to customers and potential customers.

The core principle of the Standard is that an entity will recognise revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for the goods or services. To achieve this objective, AASB 15 provides the following five-step process:

- identify the contract(s) with a customer;

- identify the performance obligations in the contract(s);

- determine the transaction price;

- allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract(s); and

- recognise revenue when (or as) the performance obligations are satisfied.

This Standard will require retrospective restatement, as well as enhanced disclosures regarding revenue.

Although the directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 15 may have an impact on the Group's financial statements, it is impracticable at this stage to provide a reasonable estimate of such impact.

AASB 16: Leases (applicable to annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2019).

When effective, this Standard will replace the current accounting requirements applicable to leases in AASB 117: Leases and related interpretations. AASB 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model that eliminates the requirement for leases to be classified as either operating leases or finance leases. Lessor accounting remains similar to current practice.

The main changes introduced by the new Standard are as follows:

- recognition of the right-to-use asset and liability for all leases (excluding short term leases with less than 12 months of tenure and leases relating to low value assets);

- depreciating the right-to-use assets in line with AASB 116: Property, Plant and Equipment in profit or loss and unwinding of the liability in principal and interest components;

- inclusion of variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate in the initial measurement of the lease liability using the index or rate at the commencement date;

- application of a practical expedient to permit a lessee to elect not to separate non-lease components and instead account for all components as a lease; and

- additional disclosure requirements.

The transitional provisions of AASB 16 allow a lease to either retrospectively apply the Standard to comparatives in line with AASB 108 or recognise the cumulative effect of retrospective application as an adjustment to opening equity at the date of initial application.  

Although the directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 16 may have an impact on the Group's financial statements, it is impracticable at this stage to provide a reasonable estimate of such impact.

AASB 2014-10: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards - Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture (applicable to annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2018).

This Standard amends AASB 10: Consolidated Financial Statements with regards to a parent losing control over a subsidiary that is not a "business" as defined in AASB 3: Business Combinations to an associate or joint venture and requires that:

- a gain or loss (including any amounts in other comprehensive income (OCI)) be recognised only to the extent of the unrelated investor's interest in that associate or joint venture;

- the remaining gain or loss be eliminated against the carrying amount of the investment in that associate or joint venture; and

- any gain or loss from remeasuring the remaining investment in the former subsidiary at fair value also be recognised only to the extent of the unrelated investor's interest in the associate or joint venture. The remaining gain or loss should be eliminated against the carrying amount of the remaining investment.

Although the directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 2014-10 may have an impact on the Group's financial statements, it is impracticable at this stage to provide a reasonable estimate of such impact.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

TO THE MEMBERS OF

EUROPEAN METALS HOLDINGS LIMITED

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of European Metals Holdings Limited (the Company), and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprises the statement of the consolidated  financial position as at 30 June 2017, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors' declaration

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:

(i)            giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 30 June 2017 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and

(ii)           complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board's APES 110: Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Material Uncertainty related to Going Concern

Without modifying our audit opinion expressed above, attention is drawn to the following matter.

As referred to in Note 1 to the financial statements, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis.  At 30 June 2017, the Group comprising the Company and its subsidiaries had a net working capital of $387,570, cash and cash equivalents of $446,112 and current liabilities of $332,250. The consolidated entity has incurred a loss for the year amounting to $4,145,872.

The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern and meet its planned exploration, administration and other commitments is dependent upon the Group raising further working capital and/or successfully exploiting its mineral assets. In the event that the Group is not successful in raising further equity or successfully exploiting its mineral assets, the Group may not be able to meet its liabilities as and when they fall due and the realisable value of the Group's current and non-current assets may be significantly less than book values.

Key Audit Matters

In addition to the matter described in the material uncertainty related to going concern, we have determined the matter described below to be a key audit matter to be communicated in the report.

We have defined the matter described below to be key audit matter to be communicated in our report. Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. This matter was addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on this matter.

Key Audit Matters

How the matter was addressed in the audit

Carrying Value of Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure The Company has capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure totalling $9,752,757 (refer to Note 12) in terms of the application of the Company's accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure, as set out in Note 1(k). The carrying value of Capitalised Exploration and Evaluation expenditure is a key audit matter due to: ·        The significance of the total balance (90% of total assets); ·        The necessity to assess management's application of the requirements of the accounting standard Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources ("AASB 6"), in light of any indicators of impairment that may be present; and ·        The assessment of significant judgements made by management in relation to the Capitalised Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure.

Inter alia, our audit procedures included the following: i.      Assessing the Group's right to tenure over exploration assets by corroborating the ownership of the relevant licences for mineral resources to government registries and relevant third party documentation; ii.     Reviewing the directors' assessment of the carrying value of the exploration and evaluation expenditure, ensuring the veracity of the data presented and that management has considered the effect of potential impairment indicators, commodity prices and the stage of the Group's projects against AASB 6; iii.    Evaluation of Group documents for consistency with the intentions for the continuing of exploration and evaluation activities in certain areas of interest, and corroborated with enquiries of management. Inter alia, the documents we evaluated included: § Minutes of meetings of the board and management; § Announcements made by the Group to the Australian Securities Exchange; § NPV Model of the Cinovec Project; and § Cash forecasts; and iv.    Consideration of the requirements of accounting standard AASB 6.  We assessed the financial statements in relation to AASB 6 to ensure appropriate disclosures are made.

Other Information

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Company's annual report for the year ended 30 June 2017, but does not include the financial report and our auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance opinion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.

As part of an audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report.

The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Group's preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's internal control.

The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.

We conclude on the appropriateness of the Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

We evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report.

We communicate with the Directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in Internal control that we identify during our audit.

The Auditing Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements. We also provide the Directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with the Directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Report on the Remuneration Report

We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 12 to 20 of the directors' report for the year ended 30 June 2017. The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards

Opinion on the Remuneration Report

In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of European Metals Holdings Limited for the year ended 30 June 2017 complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.

The Company's Corporate Governance Plan has been posted on the Company's website at www.europeanmet.com.

PRINCIPLES AND RECOMMENDATIONS		COMPLY		EXPLANATION
Principle 1: Lay solid foundations for management and oversight
Recommendation 1.1 A listed entity should have and disclose a charter which: (a)        sets out the respective roles and responsibilities of the board, the chair and management; and (b)        includes a description of those matters expressly reserved to the board and those delegated to management.

Recommendation 1.2 A listed entity should: (a)   undertake appropriate checks before appointing a person, or putting forward to security holders a candidate for election, as a director; and (b)   provide security holders with all material information relevant to a decision on whether or not to elect or re-elect a director.		Complying		(a)   The Company has detailed guidelines for the appointment and selection of the Board. The Company's Corporate Governance Plan requires the Board to undertake appropriate checks before appointing a person, or putting forward to security holders a candidate for election, as a director. (b)   Material information relevant to any decision on whether or not to elect or re-elect a Director will be provided to security holders in the notice of meeting holding the resolution to elect or re-elect the Director.
Recommendation 1.3 A listed entity should have a written agreement with each director and senior executive setting out the terms of their appointment.		Complying		The Company's Corporate Governance Plan requires the Board to ensure that each Director and senior executive is a party to a written agreement with the Company which sets out the terms of that Director's or senior executive's appointment.
Recommendation 1.4 The company secretary of a listed entity should be accountable directly to the board, through the chair, on all matters to do with the proper functioning of the board.		Complying		The Board Charter outlines the roles, responsibility and accountability of the Company Secretary. The Company Secretary is accountable directly to the Board, through the chair, on all matters to do with the proper functioning of the Board.
Recommendation 1.5 A listed entity should: (a)   have a diversity policy which includes requirements for the board: (i)    to set measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity; and (ii)  to assess annually both the objectives and the entity's progress in achieving them; (b)   disclose that policy or a summary or it; and (c)    disclose as at the end of each reporting period: (i)  the measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity set by the board in accordance with the entity's diversity policy and its progress towards achieving them; and (ii) either: (A)     the respective proportions of men and women on the board, in senior executive positions and across the whole organisation (including how the entity has defined "senior executive" for these purposes); or (B)     the entity's "Gender Equality Indicators", as defined in the Workplace Gender Equality Act 2012.	Complying		(a)   The Company has adopted a Diversity Policy. (i)    The Diversity Policy provides a framework for the Company to achieve a list of 6 measurable objectives that encompass gender equality. (ii)   The Diversity Policy provides for the monitoring and evaluation of the scope and currency of the Diversity Policy. The company is responsible for implementing, monitoring and reporting on the measurable objectives.   (b)   The Diversity Policy is stated in Schedule 10 of the Corporate Governance Plan which is available on the company website. (c)    (i)    The measurable objectives set by the Board will be included in the annual key performance indicators for the CEO, MD and senior executives. In addition the Board will review progress against the objectives in its annual performance assessment. (ii)   The Company currently has no employees and utilizes external consultants and contractors as and when required. The Board will review this position on an annual basis and will implement measurable objectives as and when they deem the Company to require them.
Recommendation 1.6 A listed entity should: (a)   have and disclose a process for periodically evaluating the performance of the board, its committees and individual directors; and (b)   disclose in relation to each reporting period, whether a performance evaluation was undertaken in the reporting period in accordance with that process.	Complying		(a)   The Board is responsible for evaluating the performance of the Board and individual directors on an annual basis. It may do so with the aid of an independent advisor. The process for this can be found in Schedule 6 of the Company's Corporate Governance Plan. (b)   The Company's Corporate Governance Plan requires the Board to disclosure whether or not performance evaluations were conducted during the relevant reporting period. Due to the size of the Board and the nature of the business, it has not been deemed necessary to institute a formal documented performance review program of individuals.  However, the Chairman intends to conduct formal reviews each financial year whereby the performance of the Board as a whole and the individual contributions of each director are disclosed.  The Board considers that at this stage of the Company's development an informal process is appropriate. The review will assist to indicate if the Board's performance is appropriate and efficient with respect to the Board Charter. The Board regularly reviews its skill base and whether it remains appropriate for the Company's operational, legal and financial requirements.  New Directors are obliged to participate in the Company's induction process, which provides a comprehensive understanding of the Company, its objectives and the market in which the Company operates. Directors are encourages to avail themselves of resources required to fulfil the performance of their duties.
Recommendation 1.7 A listed entity should: (a)   have and disclose a process for periodically evaluating the performance of its senior executives; and (b)   disclose in relation to each reporting period, whether a performance evaluation was undertaken in the reporting period in accordance with that process.	Complying		(a)   The Board is responsible for evaluating the performance of senior executives. The Board is to arrange an annual performance evaluation of the senior executives. (b)   The Company's Corporate Governance Plan requires the Board to conduct annual performance of the senior executives. Schedule 6 'Performance Evaluation' requires the Board to disclose whether or not performance evaluations were conducted during the relevant reporting period. During the financial year an evaluation of performance of the individuals was not formally carried out.  However, a general review of the individuals occurs on an on-going basis to ensure that structures suitable to the Company's status as a listed entity are in place.
Principle 2: Structure the board to add value
Recommendation 2.1 The board of a listed entity should: (a)   have a nomination committee which: (i)       has at least three members, a majority of whom are independent directors; and (ii)      is chaired by an independent director, and disclose: (iii)    the charter of the committee; (iv)     the members of the committee; and (v)       as at the end of each reporting period, the number of times the committee met throughout the period and the individual attendances of the members at those meetings; or (b)   if it does not have a nomination committee, disclose that fact and the processes it employs to address board succession issues and to ensure that the board has the appropriate balance of skills, experience, independence and knowledge of the entity to enable it to discharge its duties and responsibilities effectively.	Part -Complying		(a)   The Nomination Committee was formed on 26 August 2015.  There are currently two members of the Committee being Mr Reeves (Chairman) and Mr Coughlan.   Given the Company's present size and scope of the Company's operations, no efficiencies or benefits would be gained by having a third member.
