Message to Shareholders
We are very pleased to report that the Company has made excellent progress since its last report
to shareholders on 20 December 2001 which covers the year ended 31st July 2001.The two major
highlights since that last report were the completion of the Initial Public Offering (IPO) with listing
on the Australian Stock Exchange in May 2002 and the finalisation of the Tampakan Acquisition.
This report is for the 17 month period ending 31st December 2002.The reason for this extended
period is a result of the Board’s decision, following listing on the ASX, to bring our fiscal and reporting
year in line with our exploration and budget year.
The completion of the IPO and our subsequent listing on the Australian Stock Exchange was the
successful culmination of a great deal of effort by our fellow Directors and staff. It was a great thrill
for us all to see the Company listed.
At the time of the IPO we undertook to achieve the following objectives:
Complete the Tampakan Acquisition
Complete the next stage of drilling to enhance the Manat Resource
Complete IP and drilling at Hinotongan
Advance the property portfolio
We are pleased to announce that all of these were achieved.
The finalisation of the acquisition of our operating interest in the Tampakan project is a great
achievement for the Company.This gives the Company access to a world class deposit in its portfolio
with a global resource of 16 million ounces of gold and 12 million tonnes of copper metal. In addition
the acquisition comes with a wealth of data and a number of prefeasibility reports. In particular your
attention is drawn to the details of a scoping study, prepared for the previous owner, that were
announced in February 2002.This particular study determined that the project at a gold price of
US$280/oz. and a copper price of US$0.80/lb., would generate an IRR of 20% before tax and financing,
a NPV of US$280million at an 11% discount rate and produce 170,000 ounces of gold and 158,000
tonnes of copper annually. Capital costs were estimated at $US 420 million.These results are based on
one of a range of different scenarios for development which does not necessarily represent the scale
and technology to be adopted for any potential development.
A preliminary review of previous exploration data from the Columbia FTAA, the mining title to the
Tampakan project, has highlighted that the area external to the main Tampakan deposit is significantly
under-explored and has outstanding potential for the discovery of further gold-copper mineralization.
This is exemplified by results from the Balol Bato prospect located approximately 1.1 km. NNE where
drillhole TMPD57 intersected 157.65 m at 0.52g/t gold and 0.41% copper.
Our efforts at Tampakan are now focused on further evaluating the data and reports produced by the
previous owner, prior to commencing drilling by mid year aimed at further enhancing the resource
base. A complementary review and evaluation is also being undertaken by MIM Holdings Ltd which
has an option to acquire a 60% operating interest in the project.
The Company is committed to good corporate citizenship and is aware of the importance of building
lasting relationships with all stakeholders and keeping them well informed. As an early priority for the
development of Tampakan, a corporate affairs and community relations group has been put in place
and a community centre opened in Tampakan Township.
The finalisation of the Tampakan acquisition was made possible by the company achieving exclusively
favourable results in legal and administrative challenges by another party to the transfer of ownership
and although there is still an appeal current we remain confident in respect of future outcomes.

Message to Shareholders
(Cont)
We look forward to reporting our progress on advancing the Tampakan Project and surrounding
exploration targets to shareholders over the next twelve months.
At Manat, the drilling program was completed on schedule. Representative ore samples have been
forwarded to Australia for metallurgical testing and work has commenced on a new resource
estimation.When these results are available we will undertake a scoping study upon which to focus
future programs.
The Hinotongan project was an excellent geological concept based on similarities with Tampakan and
other copper-gold mineral systems. A two hole drilling program confirmed the discovery of a new
porphyry copper system, however it was not significantly anomalous in gold.The company’s policy is
to focus on gold and copper properties and the future plans for Hintongan are under review.
Although our main focus in the coming year will be Tampakan, further evaluation of the other
properties in the portfolio will continue. Considerable progress has been made in finalising the Palado
application in the Labo district of the Paracale Goldfield in Luzon and the Sogod property in Leyte.
Exploration results continue to be encouraging at the St. Bernard property in Leyte.
The Philippines Government has recently announced a major policy development to promote the
Mining Industry. A number of initiatives are taking place and are being supported by the World Bank,
and aid from the US, Canada and Australia.This is excellent news for Indophil and the change in policy
has been welcomed by the Industry.
The Company believes it is important to work with local partners in its activities in the Philippines.
The Alsons Group, which has substantial business interests in Mindanao, are our partners in both the
Manat and Tampakan Projects.Their guidance and advice has been invaluable in many aspects of our
work on these projects and also in the wider context of our activities in the Philippines.
Our commitment to best environmental practice was recognised when the Company was awarded
the ANZ Bank Business Awards 2002 Special Environmental Commendation Award.
We look forward to another exciting year as we continue the evaluation of Tampakan and progress
the other projects in the portfolio.
We would like to take this opportunity to record our deep appreciation for the continuing support of
our Shareholders and to thank our fellow Directors and all the Indophil staff for their dedication, effort
and support.

The Board of directors of Indophil Resources NL has adopted the following set of principles for the
corporate governance of the Company. These principles establish the framework of how the Board
carries out its duties and obligations on behalf of the shareholders.
Role of the Board
The Board is responsible for protecting the rights and interests of shareholders and for the overall
corporate governance of the Company. The Board’s responsibilities include
formulating the strategic objectives of the Company and establishing goals designed to promote
the achievement of those strategic objectives
considering and approving the Managing Director’s proposals for the Company’s annual work
programs and budgets
monitoring the performance of management against these goals and objectives
ensuring that there are appropriate internal controls and ethical standards of behaviour adopted
and met within the Company
ensuring that the business risks facing the Company are, wherever possible, identified and that the
appropriate monitoring and reporting controls are in place to manage these risks and
appointing the Managing Director, evaluating the performance and determining the remuneration
of senior management and ensuring that the appropriate policies and procedures are in place for
recruitment, remuneration and succession planning.
Composition of the Board
The Board currently consists of five directors, with two executive directors and three non-executive
directors including the Chairman.
Any changes to directorships will, for the foreseeable future, be dealt with by the full Board subject
to any applicable laws and accordingly a nominations committee has not been established.
Independent Professional Advice
In fulfilling their duties, each Director dealing with corporate governance matters may obtain
independent professional advice at the expense of the Company subject to prior approval of the
Chairman, whose approval will not be unreasonably withheld.
Board Committees
The Board has a Remuneration Committee consisting of Bryan Davis as Chairman and Kevin Robinson.
The remuneration of Directors and senior management is determined periodically by the
Remuneration Committee.

The Board has established an Audit Committee.
The Audit Committee consists of two non-executive Directors, Mr. Peter Maloney and Mr. Bryan Davis.
At the discretion of the committee, the external auditors and the Managing Director will be invited to
attend Audit Committee meetings. The Audit Committee will consider any matters relating to the
financial affairs of the Company and other matters referred to it by the Board. The Audit Committee
intends to meet not less than three times per year or more frequently if circumstances require.
The Board may sometimes delegate some of its monitoring and routine functions to other committees.
Directors’ and Senior Managements’ Dealings in the Company’s Shares and Options
The Company requires that
directors discuss any proposed trade in shares and options with the Chairman prior to any trade
senior management must discuss any proposed trade in shares and options with the Company
Secretary or the Managing Director prior to any trade
trades in shares and options by directors and senior management are limited to stipulated periods
unless there are unusual circumstances and
directors and senior management are aware of their obligations under the Corporations Act not to
trade or procure trades in shares and options if possession of price sensitive non-public information
to any other person who is likely to trade shares and options or communicate such information to
another party.
Ethical Standards
The Board believes that the success of the Company to date has been partly based upon the strong
ethical culture within the organisation. As the Company grows, the need to ensure that these ethical
standards remain is leading to greater emphasis on developing policies to ensure that all directors,
senior managers and employees act with the utmost integrity and objectivity in their business dealings.
A Code of Conduct has been adopted by the Board.

Operations Review
Project Portfolio & Operations Overview
Indophil has developed a substantial portfolio of projects in the Philippines for copper and gold
comprising eight geographically separate projects ranging from the advanced Tampakan gold-copper
Project currently in a preliminary-feasibility stage, to the early reconnaissance stage Northern Sierra
Madre Project in Northern Luzon (Figure 1). These projects currently comprise five granted licenses
and twelve tenement applications totalling 2,163 sq. km.Tenements include Financial and Technical
Assistance Agreements (FTAA), Mineral Production Sharing Agreements (MPSA) and Exploration
Permits (EP).
The Company is now one of the most active explorers in the country and has established a strong
reputation within the mineral exploration industry. Exploration focus is on the discovery of epithermal,
porphyry copper and related styles of mineralisation including skarn deposits.Table 1 provides a
current project summary listing tenements, target types, current status, maximum Indophil equity and
highlights.
Since listing on the ASX in May 2002, the Company’s efforts have been strongly focussed on the
acquisition of an operating interest in the Tampakan Project. This was finalised in August 2002 with the
transfer of shares from the Projects previous owner WMC Philippines Inc. to Sagittarius Mines Inc., an
affiliate of Indophil. Indophil has now assumed management of the Project and has commenced a review
of a comprehensive historical Project database generated by the previous owner. In addition, the
Company has undertaken a 15 hole (2073m) program of delineation and resource definition diamond
drilling at the Manat gold-basemetal project in SE Mindanao and an exploration diamond drilling
program comprising 2 holes (804.8m) at the Hinotongan Project on the Island of Negros that has lead
to the discovery of a low grade porphyry copper system.
The Tampakan project contains one of the largest known undeveloped copper-gold deposit in the
SE Asia Region and as such the Company’s ongoing focus will be on the consolidation of preliminary
feasibility studies, including further drilling.This strategic focus will require a review of the Company’s
portfolio and if necessary a rationalisation including the possible introduction of joint venture partners,
or in some cases tenement relinquishment.

Tampakan Gold-Copper Project
Overview
Located approximately 50km north of General Santos City, a major growth centre in the Philippines
(Figure 2), the Tampakan Project contains one of the largest known undeveloped copper-gold deposit in
the SE Asia Pacific Region. The global drill-indicated mineral resource estimate at a 0.2% copper cut-off
grade represents a coherent body of mineralisation containing approximately 16 million ounces of gold
and 12 million tonnes of copper metal. Exploration of the deposit by the previous owner WMC
Philippines Inc. (WMCP), has reached an advanced stage and preliminary-feasibility studies including
resource estimation, geotechnical, metallurgical, mining, environmental and community studies are
moderately well advanced although not consolidated at this time.
Since acquiring an interest in the Project in August 2002, the Company, through a technical services
agreement with the Project’s owner Sagittarius Mines Inc. (Sagittarius), has been providing technical
services to the Tampakan Project and a core group of employees has been located to the Project’s
Operations Office in General Santos City. An audit of technical data (both digital and hardcopy) has
been completed and a four-month data review period is currently underway.Whilst the results of this
review will dictate the future work program, it is anticipated that the consolidation of preliminary
feasibility studies, including further infill drilling and metallurgical studies, will take approximately 2 years.
The Board has approved a 2003 provisional work program and net operating budget of $2.86 million.
This program will include approximately 2000m of infill drilling due to commence in the second half.

Tenure and Ownership
The Tampakan Project area is held under a Financial and Technical Assistance Agreement (the Columbio
FTAA) with the Government of the Republic of the Philippines that allows a company with up to 100%
foreign control to explore for and develop major mineral projects.The Columbio FTAA currently
covers an area of 304.9 sq km. A contiguous FTAA application (Hillcrest) forms part of the Project
area (Figure 2).
The Project is owned by Sagittarius Mines Inc.(Sagittarius), a Philippine corporation representing former
claim owners, who finalised the purchase of the property from WMCP in August 2002. Another party,
Lepanto Consolidated Mining Corporation (Lepanto), has challenged the sale process before the courts.
Lepanto’s action has been unsuccessful, losing before a lower regional trial court and subsequently in the
Philippines Court of Appeals. An appeal before the Supreme Court is currently pending and Sagittarius
is confident that this action will also be unsuccessful. In a separate move by the same party, a motion
lodged before the Office of the President was also rejected.
Indophil currently has 40% equity in Sagittarius and through a series of agreements with Sagittarius
has acquired substantial vested rights to the Tampakan Project in exchange for certain payments and
a royalty from future production.The Company has also entered into option agreements with MIM
Holdings Limited (MIM) and Alsons Corporation (Alsons), that allows them to purchase part of the
Company’s interest in the Tampakan Project which would give a final proportion of: MIM 60%, Indophil
30% and Alsons 10%. Alsons Corporation, is a member of the respected Alcantara Group, which has
major business interests in Mindanao.
Data Audit & Review
On finalisation of the sale and purchase agreement between WMC and Sagittarius in August 2002,
Indophil in its role as Project Manager commenced an audit and review of the comprehensive Project
technical database. Project expenditure by the previous owner to that time amounted to $US38
million. By year-end, all existing technical data had been retrieved from storage, indexed, filed and the
digital data transferred to a new secure database.The Company has commenced a detailed review
of the comprehensive technical database likely to take approximately 5 months. An initial review
has revealed that a number of advanced studies have already been completed. These studies include
mineral resource estimations, metallurgical tests, mine optimisation, waste disposal, environmental,
preliminary feasibility and financial modelling.These studies and data are currently being evaluated
with results to be released progressively as the evaluation progresses.
Geology & Mineral Resources
The main Tampakan gold-copper deposit comprises a tabular body of disseminated mineralisation
up to 260m thick containing higher copper and gold grades superimposed on an underlying lower
grade porphyry gold-copper deposit. It has been drilled by 85 diamond drillholes over an area of
2km x 1.6km at a density ranging from 320m to 160m with limited infill drilling at 80m spacing
(Figures 3 & 4). The Company’s review of the existing drillhole database has highlighted a strong
clustering of better grade drillhole intersections (≥ 100 metre% copper and ≥ 1% copper) in the
northern shallower part of the deposit (Figure 3). In addition, there appears to be a correlation of
better intersections with a NNE trending corridor through the deposit associated with interpreted
faults that may have controlled mineralising fluids. Table 2 lists the better gold-copper intersections
within the deposit resulting from the review.
10
In 1998,WMC Resources (WMC) published an indicated and inferred mineral resource estimate for
the Tampakan gold-copper deposit at differing cut-off grades (Table 3).The resource estimation was
based on a block model using inverse distance squared methodology and Datamine software. The
Company is currently reviewing the resource estimation procedures used by WMC but has yet to
establish if this estimate conforms to the Australian Joint Ore Reserves Committee (JORC) standards.
The global resource at a 0.2% copper cut-off grade represents the largest undeveloped copper-gold
resource in the SE Asia Region. At a 0.5% copper cut-off, the resource represents a thick and very
coherent tabular mineralised zone as exemplified in section 715790N (Figure 4). The Company’s
review has also established that there are zones of higher gold grades, typically between 1and 2g/t,
within the mineralised resource envelope which will be the subject of further investigation.

Mine Scoping Studies
The Company’s data review has revealed that as part of an ongoing scoping study process the project’s
previous owner arrived at a likely base case scenario with a schedule of tonnage and costs.Two process
options were investigated:
(1) Production of a concentrate with a grade of 35% copper, and
(2) A hydro-metallurgical process route producing metal by SXEW
After preliminary modelling, the concentrate route was chosen for more detailed studies.
Input parameters included a gold price of US$280/oz and a copper price of $US 0.80/lb.
An optimisation of one of a number of cases studied based on a minimum mine life of 20 years
produced an IRR of 20% before tax and finance and a NPV of $US280 million at a discount rate of
11%. Maximum annual metal production in concentrate in this case would be 158,000 tonnes copper
and 170,000 ounces gold. Construction was estimated to cost US$ 420m (1999 $).
It should be noted that these results represent the work of the previous owner.The results are based
on one of a range of different scenarios for the development which does not necessarily represent the
scale and technology to be adopted for any potential development.

Exploration Potential
A preliminary review of exploration data external to the main Tampakan gold-copper deposit has
recently been completed. Systematic exploration of the Colombio FTAA by WMC included geological
mapping, stream sediment surveys, soil surveys and geophysical exploration including airborne
magnetics and IP traversing.This work defined 9 prospect areas (Figure 2) some of which were the
subject of more detailed exploration. Only 14 diamond drillholes (5,450m) were drilled on 5 of the
prospects external to the Tampakan drill grid.The Company’s review to date has highlighted two of the
prospects that merit early priority exploration follow up for gold-copper mineralisation.
At the Bolol Bato (Camp 5) prospect located approximately 1.1km NNE of the northernmost
drilling traverse on the Tampakan deposit, drillhole TMPD57 intersected 157.65m at 0.52g/t Au and
0.41% Cu from 92.25m, including 76.2m at 0.69g/t Au and 0.75% Cu from 162.9m. Geological and
geophysical data indicates a potential NNE trending mineralised corridor linking this intersection with
the main Tampakan gold-copper deposit.
At the Silway prospect located 4 km southeast of the Tampakan deposit, outcrops of silica-clay
alteration containing visible bornite (copper mineralisation) have been observed in stream outcrops.
Previous exploration has defined an extensive IP geophysical anomaly that has been tested by a single
drillhole (TMDP93) which intersected 380m of silica and silica-clay alteration. This alteration is similar
in style to the alteration that is spatially associated with the Tampakan deposit.This hole intersected
significantly anomalous copper (0.1-0.2%Cu) between 193 and 355m, reflecting encouraging potential
for this prospect area.
Following its preliminary review, the Company believes that the FTAA is significantly under-explored
and has outstanding potential for the discovery of copper-gold mineralisation, including direct Tampakan
analogues. There is also scope for the discovery of discrete vein and stockwork precious metal (goldsilver) mineralisation as evidenced by the existence of gold mineralised epithermal veins that have been
identified to the immediate north of the main deposit.

Community
The Company acknowledges that the future development of the Tampakan Project relies heavily on
community support.There are many stakeholders that will benefit directly from a future mine
development, including local and Provincial Government, Indigenous Groups, the local community
(employment and commercial opportunities) etc.The Company has already carried out considerable
consultation with the local communities in a spirit of openness and transparency and has honoured
all existing contractual arrangements entered into by the project’s previous owner. A Community
Development section has already been established headed by a former senior staffer from the Office
of the President for Regional Development in Mindanao. A Community Development Centre has also
been established in the Tampakan Township, in proximity to Project site. Health and education are an
important focus for the Company’s support to the community.
Future Program
The future work program will depend largely on the results of the detailed technical data review
currently underway. At this stage it is anticipated that implementation of a field program including
re-establishment of the Projects field camp and survey control will commence in May, leading to the
commencement of a program of evaluation infill diamond drilling scheduled in July, probably focussed
on the northern part of the main deposit.The Company plans to spend A$2.86 million on the
Tampakan Project this Calendar year.This expenditure forms part of an ongoing preliminary feasibility
study into the viability of mine development that is likely to take at least 2 years.The Company will
also be initiating environmental programs including community assisted monitoring programs and
re-forestation.
Manat Project
Overview
The Manat project is located in the Masara mineral district of SE Mindanao approximately 60km NE of
the major growth centre and Port City of Davao (Figure 1).The Masara mineral district hosts a number
of significant epithermal gold and porphyry copper-gold deposits including the King King deposit –
398 Mt @ 0.34% Cu and 0.52g/t Au. Indophil, through a farmin and joint venture arrangement with
Aldevinco, a member of the Alcantara Group of Companies, is managing the exploration activity and
earning to a 50% equity position.The JV area comprises an approved Mineral Production Sharing
Agreement (MPSA) of 15.47 sq km.
Exploration by Indophil to date has identified three sub-parallel NW trending mineralised structures
within the Project area. The focus of the Company’s exploration activity has been on the central Magas
structure where Indophil has discovered a mineralised epithermal vein system containing gold, silver,
14
lead and zinc (the Magas Vein Zone – MVZ).This vein system has been the subject of a delineation and
resource definition diamond drilling program comprising 30 diamond drillholes for 4990m over a strike
length of 1.2km.
Prior to the 2002 field season, drilling on the MVZ (to MNTD22) had defined an inferred mineral
resource estimate of 3.07 million tonnes at 2.76g/t Au, 17.78g/t Ag, 1.20% Zn and 0.6% Pb containing
an insitu 272,000 ounces of gold and 1.75 million ounces of silver.
2002 Exploration Activity
Shortly after listing on the ASX the Company commenced a program of delineation and resource
definition diamond drilling on the Magas Vein Zone. A total of 14 DDH’s were completed (MNTD23-36,
1903.2m) demonstrating generally good continuity to mineralisation. Better intersections from the 2002
drilling program are given in Table 4 and a longitudinal projection of the MVZ is given in Figure 5.

An induced polarisation geophysical survey of 4.3 line km was undertaken over the southern part of
the Manat grid to both map the southern extension of the MVZ and map alteration associated with
porphyry copper mineralisation intersected in previous drillhole MNTD14 (227m at 0.19% Cu and
0.30g/t Au).This survey highlighted a strong IP anomaly approximately 150m NE of MNTD14 which
was subsequently drilled by drillhole MNTD37 (170.2m). As well as intersecting ubiquitous
disseminated pyrite, this hole intersected some intervals of disseminated copper-gold mineralisation
(30.2m at 0.33g/t Au, 0.13% Cu from 140m) associated with sericitic alteration.
Metallurgical testwork is currently underway at AMMTECH on a bulk 168kg composite sample
prepared from individual drillhole samples from eight (8) selected drillhole intersections from the
2002 drilling program.This composite sample is generally representative of the Magas mineralisation.
The testwork is looking at both precious and base metal recoveries. In addition, the mineral resource
estimate is currently being reviewed by an external consultant and will take into account the results
of the 2002 drilling program.
Future Program
A preliminary mine scoping study is planned once the results the metallurgical testwork and revised
resource estimate are known.This will establish the viability or otherwise of mineralisation intersected
to date (in particular grade) in supporting a future mining operation. In the event of a positive
outcome, it is anticipated that further delineation drilling will be undertaken to augment the resource.
Hinotongan Project
Overview
The Hinotongan Project is a joint venture arrangement with the Philippine National Oil Company
(PNOC) with Indophil earning to maximum 65% equity through a sole funding farmin arrangement.
Hinotongan has strong geological analogies with the Tampakan copper-gold deposit with similar
structures, host rocks, siliceous caprock and late stage intrusives.Well preserved volcanic features
are also present.
Prior to the 2002 field season, exploration by WMC Exploration and Indophil defined anomalous
copper with associated elements in soil and stream sediment samples. Outcropping disseminated
copper mineralisation (up to 0.3% Cu) associated with siliceous breccias and major structures had
also been observed over approximately three kilometres along the deeply incised Hinotongan River.
2002 Exploration Activity
Exploration during 2002 focussed on a well preserved volcanic feature with pervasive hydrothermal
alteration at the intersection of the Hinotongan River and Amlan River structural corridors.Three lines
of 100m dipole-dipole induced polarisation profiling totalling 6 line kilometres were undertaken over
the target area covering approximately 1.2 km strike of the Hinotongan River structure.This survey
highlighted a strong IP anomaly underlying a highly resistive zone interpreted to be associated with a
leached silica caprock, consistent with the Company’s geological model.Two (2) diamond drillholes
(HIND 1 & 2) totaling 804.8m and spaced approximately 800m apart were drilled to test the inferred
geological model, a tabular body of mineralisation underlying a barren silica cap.
HIND1 (406.6m) intersected wide intervals of silica and silica-clay altered andesitic volcanics with
ubiquitous disseminated pyrite and weakly anomalous copper values. HIND2 (398.2m) intersected
advanced argillic altered andesitic volcanics to 226m followed by highly altered intrusive rocks to the
EOH. Several zones of weakly anomalous copper (0.1 to 0.25% Cu, peak 0.41% Cu) were intersected in
the hole, the best being 56.6m at 0.17% Cu from 169.6m. No significant gold, silver or basemetal
anomalism was recorded. Selective sampling (4 samples) of one of the copper anomalous zones recorded
significantly anomalous molybdenum (peak 1.14%).This drilling has confirmed the discovery of a new
porphyry copper mineralised system that has associated anomalous molybdenum but no significant gold.
16
The Company is currently reviewing all exploration results from Hinotongan. Given the Company’s
strategy of focussing on gold and copper and the need for a strong focus on the Tampakan Project the
Board is evaluating the future exploration at Hinotongan.
Other Projects
Leyte Project
The Leyte project comprises two tenement groups in southern Leyte, St. Bernard and the Sogod
Joint Venture.The area has similar geology and is along trend from the Surigao gold district in
northeast Mindanao, a very productive mineral district which includes the newly discovered high
grade Boyongan porphyry copper-gold deposit.
The properties include widespread areas of hydrothermal alteration associated with anomalous
geochemistry. At the Pandan prospect within the Sogod JV, a previous exploration in the 1970’s that
included 28 diamond drillholes (4574m) defined a drill indicated copper-lead-zinc-gold-silver resource
of 1.334 million tonnes at 0.49% copper, 1.17% lead, 2.26% zinc, 0.48g/t gold and 9.63g/t silver (assumed
not to JORC standards). A major data review and further exploration is planned here once title is
granted.
On the St Bernard tenement, exploration by Indophil prior to 2002 defined a 3 sq km gold anomalous
area of advanced-argillic alteration. Exploration during 2002 included grid based geological mapping and
a 200 x 80m soil sampling program with some subsequent infill to 100m x 80m.The mapping has
defined 3 areas of intense silica-clay-pyrite alteration, one of which appears associated with a breccia
pipe.The soil sampling defined coherent and near coincident weak to moderate gold and arsenic
anomalies that will be the focus of further exploration during 2003.
Labo Project
The Labo Project is located in the Paracale gold district in Camarines Norte Province, which has
historical production exceeding 5 million ounces of gold and significant silver. Indophil is a significant
tenement holder in the district with 2 adjacent tenements, De Jesus and Palado. Several styles of
precious and basemetal mineralisation are present within and adjacent to the Project area.
Previous grid-based exploration by Indophil on the De-Jesus tenement prior to 2002 defined four
major soil gold anomalies leading to encouraging trench results at the Pael and Gaerlan prospects
including 8m at 8.03g/t gold, 7m at 7.34g/t gold, 13m at 4.97g/t gold and 20m at 1.58g/t gold. A limited
program of shallow exploration diamond drilling (1028.4m) was subsequently completed at the Pael
and Gaerlan prospects with 10 out of 11 drill holes intersecting significant gold mineralised zones
including 5.99m at 4.87g/t gold and 8.24m at 2.61g/t gold. Activity during 2002 included a complete
review of exploration data generated by Indophil with future work on this tenement to be prioritised
once the Palado tenement is formally approved.
Previous reconnaissance geological and stream sediment geochemical exploration by Indophil coupled
with an integration of historical exploration data over the area of the Palado tenement has identified
several prospect areas for diverse styles of mineralisation.This includes an area within and adjacent to
the northern part of the tenement application where a previous district wide stream sediment survey
by the United Nations had recorded its highest gold values. In this area 16 out of 57 stream sediment
samples gave gold values above 0.5g/t with 9 samples averaging 3.4g/t.There was no field activity on the
Palado tenement area during 2002 pending formal grant of title, which is anticipated shortly.
Bunawan Project
The Bunawan Project is located in Agusan Del Sur Province, eastern Mindanao within the highly mineralised
eastern Mindanao volcanic arc that includes the Diwalwal (6mozs gold) and the Co-O, (Banahaw)
epithermal gold deposits.The project area has a history of significant small-scale gold mining activity.
17
Previous reconnaissance exploration by Indophil has produced very encouraging coherent streamsediment gold anomalies (32 of 204 samples exceeding 1g/t gold) correlating with extensive areas
of hydrothermal alteration and associated gold mineralised veining.The geological environment and
anomalous geochemistry implies excellent potential for the discovery of both vein and disseminated
style gold mineralisation.
The was no field activity on the Bunawan Project during 2002 pending resolution of a tenement
dispute currently before the Mines Adjudication Board in respect of an MPSA application over which
the Company has an option agreement.
Buda
The Buda project is located in the Central Mindanao Cordillera on the interpreted continuation of
the volcanic arc segment that hosts the Tampakan copper-gold deposit in southern Mindanao.There
are a number of areas of small-scale gold mining activity within the area of the 3 exploration permit
applications of Indophil and the Company has defined several gold geochemical anomalies (prospects)
from a limited orientation stream sediment survey.
Previous exploration including channel sampling of outcropping massive sulphides at the Bangan
prospect returned the highly anomalous response of 5.8m at 31g/t gold, 80g/t silver and 1.05% copper.
To date this is the only work on this prospect.
Future grid based exploration by Indophil, including follow-up at Bangan, is contingent on the formal
approval of title (3 exploration permit applications).
Northern Sierra Madre (NSM)
This project area, which comprises four (4) exploration permit applications, has strong geological
similarities with the Baguio and Mankayan Mineral Districts that host several major ore deposits
including Antamok, Acupan, Lepanto, Lepanto Far Southeast and Victoria gold and copper deposits.
In the NSM, reconnaissance by Indophil has identified large areas of hydrothermal alteration associated
with stream sediment anomalies for copper and associated elements defined during a previous lowdensity Government survey.This same survey located several occurrences of porphyry-copper style
stockwork mineralisation.
Whilst the area has high prospectivity for the discovery of major porphyry style copper-gold and
related epithermal mineralisation further exploration is contingent on the formal approval of title
(4 exploration permit applications).

Notes to the Financial Reports
Note 1. Statement of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Change of Financial Year
Indophil Resources has received permission from the Australian Stock Exchange and the Australian
Taxation Office to change its financial year to finish at December 31 rather than July 31. Consequently,
the financial year reported as "2002" in the financial statements and notes to the financial statements is
for the 17 (seventeen) months August 1, 2001 to December 31, 2002. The comparatives shown as
"2001" is for the 12 (twelve) months August 1, 2000 to July 31, 2001.
(b) Basis of Accounting
The financial statements have been prepared as a general purpose financial report in accordance with
the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative
pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and Urgent Issues Group Consensus
views. The accounting policies used are consistent with those adopted in the previous year unless
otherwise stated at Note 1(az). The financial statements have also been prepared in accordance with
the historical cost convention and do not take account of changes in either the general purchasing
power of the dollar or in the prices of specific assets.
The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of
normal business activity, and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course
of business. The ability of the Company to continue to operate as a going concern is dependent upon
the raising of additional finance to fund future operations through placements, exercise of options, or
by other means.
Having regard to these factors, the directors are of the opinion that the basis upon which the accounts
are presented is appropriate in the circumstances.
(c) Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the parent entity, Indophil
Resources NL, and its controlled entities, referred to collectively throughout these financial statements
as the "Consolidated entity".
All inter-entity balances and transactions have been eliminated. Where an entity either began or ceased
to be controlled during the period, the results are included only from the date control commenced or
up to the date control ceased.
Financial statements of foreign controlled entities presented in accordance with overseas accounting
principles are, for consolidation purposes, adjusted to comply with group policy and general accepted
accounting principles in Australia.
(d) Foreign Currency Transactions
Foreign currency items are translated to Australian currency on the following basis:
transactions are converted at exchange rates approximating those in effect at the date of each
transaction;
amounts payable and receivable are translated at the average of the buy and sell rates available on
the close of business at balance date.
the financial statements of all foreign operations are translated using the temporal method as they
are considered inter-dependent.
Exchange differences relating to monetary items are included in the Statement of Financial
Performance, as exchange gains or losses, in the period when the exchange rates change.
31 July 2001.
26
(e) Exploration Expenditure
Exploration expenditure incurred is charged against earnings as incurred, except in the case of areas
of interest where title is granted and:
it is expected that the expenditure will be recouped by future exploitation or sale; or
at balance date, exploration activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable
assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves, and active and significant
operations are continuing.
In these cases the expenditure is recognised as an asset. Ultimate recoupment of these costs is
dependent on the successful development and commercial exploitation, or sale, of the respective areas
of interest.
(f)
Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment is depreciated over the useful economic lives as follows:
Item
Leasehold improvements
Owned plant and equipment
Life
3 years
2-5 years
Method
Straight line
Straight line
(g) Income Tax
Tax effect accounting has been adopted by the Consolidated entity. Future income tax benefits are
available to the Consolidated entity in respect of tax losses. However as there is no certainty that
entities in the Consolidated entity will derive sufficient future assessable income to realise these
benefits, no amount has been benefited in the financial statements in respect thereof.
(h) Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:
Where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation
authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as
part of the expense item as applicable; and
Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of
receivables or payables in the Statement of Financial Position.
Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis and the GST component of
cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the
taxation authority are classified as operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable
to, the taxation authority.
(i)
Recoverable Amounts of Non-current Assets
All non-current assets other than deferred exploration expenditure are reviewed at least annually to
determine whether their carrying amounts require writing down to recoverable amount. Recoverable
amount is determined using net cash flows not discounted to present values.
31 July 2001.
27
(Cont)
(i)
Joint Ventures
An interest in a joint venture is brought to account by including in the respective financial statement
categories:
the Consolidated entity’s share in each of the individual assets employed in the joint venture;
liabilities incurred by the Consolidated entity in relation to the joint venture including the
Consolidated entity’s share of any liabilities for which the Consolidated entity is jointly and/or
severally liable; and
the Consolidated entity’s share of expenses of the joint venture.
Interests in the joint venture partnerships are carried at the lower of the equity–accounted amount
and recoverable amount in the consolidated financial report.
(k) Leased Assets
Assets acquired under finance leases are recognised and amortised over the life of the relevant lease
or, where ownership is likely to be obtained on expiration of the lease, over the expected useful life of
the asset. Lease payments are allocated between borrowing costs and reduction in the lease liability.
Operating lease assets are not recognised and rental payments are charged to the Statement of
Financial Performance in the period in which they are incurred.
(l)
Goodwill on Acquisition
On acquisition of a controlled entity, the difference between the purchase consideration plus incidental
expenses and the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired is initially brought to account as goodwill
or discount on acquisition. Goodwill is amortised on a straight line basis over the period during which
the benefits are expected to arise. The unamortised balance of goodwill is reviewed at each balance
date and are charged to the Statement of Financial Performance to the extent that applicable future
benefits are no longer probable.
(m) Provision for Employee Entitlements
Provision has been made in the financial statements for benefits accruing to employees in relation to
annual leave. No provision is made for non-vesting sick leave as the anticipated pattern of future sick
leave taken indicates that accumulated non-vesting leave is not expected to be paid. All on-costs,
including payroll tax, workers’ compensation premiums and fringe benefits tax are included in the
determination of provisions. Annual leave provisions are measured at their nominal amounts.
(n) Financial Instruments included in Assets
Bank deposits, bills of exchange, promissory notes, loans, marketable securities and marketable equity
securities are carried at cost. Purchases and sales of investments are recognised on the trade date.
Other investments are included in investments at the lower of cost or recoverable amount.
Trade and other debtors are recorded at the amount of contracted proceeds.
(o) Financial Instruments included in Liabilities and in Equity
Convertible notes are recorded at cost.
Ordinary share capital bears no special terms or conditions affecting income or capital entitlements of
the shareholders.
(p) Provision for Restoration and Rehabilitation
Restoration costs that are expected to be incurred are provided for as part of the cost of the
exploration, evaluation, development, construction or production phases that give rise to the need for
restoration. Accordingly, these costs are recognised gradually over the life of the facility as these
31 July 2001.
28
phases occur. The costs include obligations relating to reclamation, waste site closure, plant closure,
platform removal and other costs associated with the restoration of the site. These estimates of the
restoration obligations are based on anticipated technology and legal requirements and future costs,
which have been discounted to their present value. Any changes in the estimates are adjusted on a
retrospective basis. In determining the restoration obligations, the entity has assumed no significant
changes will occur in the relevant legislation in relation to restoration of such tenements in the future.
No provision has been recognised in the financial statements, as there is no expectation of future costs
at the current stage of exploration.
(q) Superannuation Plans
The parent entity contributes to individual prescribed superannuation funds of employees.
Contributions of up to 9% of employee’s salaries are legally enforceable in Australia. All the funds are
fully vested accumulated contribution type plans.
(r)
Comparative Figures
Where necessary, comparatives have been reclassified and repositioned for consistency with current
period disclosures as a result of the first-time application of revised Accounting Standards AASB 1005
"Segment Reporting".
(s ) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash on hand and in banks and short-term deposits are stated at nominal value. For the purposes of
the Statement of Cash Flows, cash includes cash on hand and in banks, and money market investments
readily convertible to cash within 2 working days.
(t)
Receivables
Trade receivables are recognised and carried at 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. Interest is
taken up as income on an accrual basis.
(u) Investments
Investments in associates are carried at the lower of the equity-accounted amount and recoverable
amount in the consolidated financial report.
All other non-current investments are carried at the lower of cost and recoverable amount.
(v) Payables
Liabilities for trade creditors and other amounts are carried at cost which is the fair value of the
consideration to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the
consolidated entity.
Payables to related parties are carried at the principal amount. Interest, when charged by the lender, is
recognised as an expense on an accrual basis.
(w) Interest-bearing liabilities
All loans are measured at the principal amount. Interest is charged as an expense as it accrues.
(x) Contributed equity
Issued and paid up capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the company.
Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a
reduction of the share proceeds received.
31 July 2001.

(y)
(Cont)
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the
entity and the revenue can be reliably measured.The following specific recognition criteria must also
be met before revenue is recognised:
Interest
Control of the right to receive the interest payment.
(z)
Earnings per share
Basic EPS is calculated as net profit attributable to members, adjusted to exclude costs of servicing
equity (other than dividends), divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted
for any bonus element.
Diluted EPS is calculated as net profit attributable to members, adjusted for:
costs of servicing equity (other than dividends);
the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that
have been recognised as expenses; and
other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from
the dilution of potential ordinary shares;
divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares,
adjusted for any bonus element.
(az) Changes in Accounting Policy
AASB 1027 Earnings Per Share
The consolidated entity has adopted the revised Accounting Standard AASB 1027 "Earnings Per Share"
and has for the first time, determined basic and diluted earnings per share in accordance with the
revised Standard. Basic earnings per share (EPS) was previously calculated by dividing the profit from
ordinary activities after tax and preference dividends by the weighted average number of ordinary
shares outstanding during the financial period. In accordance with the revised AASB 1027, basic EPS is
now calculated as net profit attributable to members, adjusted to exclude costs of servicing equity
(other than dividends) and preference share dividends, divided by the weighted average number of
ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.
Diluted EPS was previously determined by dividing the profit from ordinary activities after tax and
preference dividends adjusted for the effect of earnings on potential ordinary shares, by the weighted
average number of ordinary shares (both issued and potentially dilutive) outstanding during the financial
period. In accordance with AASB 1027, diluted EPS is now calculated as net profit attributable to
members, adjusted for:
costs of servicing equity (other than dividends) and preference share dividends;
the after tax effect of dividends and interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that
have been recognised as expenses; and
other non-discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would
result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares;
divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary shares,
adjusted for any bonus element.

(b) Benefit of income tax losses not brought to account
As at 31 December 2002, the Consolidated entity has estimated future income tax benefits arising from tax losses and mining
expenditure of $1,409,132 (2001: $1,296,456). This benefit has not been brought to account as realisation is not virtually
certain. The benefit will only be obtained if:
(i) the Consolidated entity derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefits
from the deductions to be realised;
(ii) the Consolidated entity continues to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by the law; and
(iii) no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Consolidated entity in realising the benefit from the deductions
for the losses.
The future income tax benefit has been reduced to reflect the effect of legislated changes to income tax rates from
34% to 30%.
Income tax expense and deferred tax balances presented in this financial report do not take into account the impact,
if any, that may arise should the group elect to enter into a tax consolidation group.

A loan from Australian Selection Pty Ltd was taken out on 8 January 2001 for a minimum of three months, repayable on
demand with an interest rate of 8.5% p.a. payable monthly in arrears. On 10th July 2001 the loan was converted into $600,000
unsecured convertible notes. On 12 November 2001 the Company resolved that the convertible notes be exercisable into
equity at $0.10 per share with a free attaching option exercisable at the discretion of the holder at any time prior to 31
January 2002 at $0.10 per option. These terms were similar to the October 2001 offer to shareholders. The convertible
notes were exercised on 12 November 2001 and resulted in the allotment of 6,000,000 shares and options to Australian
Selection Pty Ltd.

Due to the uncertain nature of exploration the Consolidated entity believes the provision of any estimated expenditure is
unable to be forecast with any reliability. The Consolidated entity is able to relinquish interest in tenements or exploration
permits at any stage.
However, should the Consolidated entity decide to retain its existing interests the minimum expenditure payable in the next
year would be $2,219,000 (included in the table above).

(1) Though 40% owned, Indophil Resources NL has a call option to purchase the 60% equity held by other shareholders. In
consideration for the grant of the call option, the option deed requires Indophil Resources NL to advance loans to the
60% shareholders to enable those shareholders to meet cash calls for exploration expenditure. Therefore the assets and
net loss have been attributed 100% to the members of Indophil Resources NL.

Note 27. Subsequent Events

The Consolidated entity has not entered into any forward foreign exchange agreements and foreign currency options.
Remittances to the Philippines have been in Australian dollars on a needs basis.
Most of the Consolidated entity’s expenditure in the foreseeable future will be in Philippine pesos, so the Consolidated entity
is exposed to the Australian dollar – Philippine peso exchange rate.

carried at the amount at which the liability could be settled. Accordingly the net fair value is the same as the carrying value.

as the carrying amount.
