In-house drill rig commissioned
The group commissioned an in-house diamond drill rig in May 2021 while continuing gold and lithium exploration. Equity financing supported exploration and equipment outlays.
Five annual reports for Dart Mining NL, with consolidated statutory figures in Australian dollars unless a table says shares or cents per share. FY2022 statement balances use dated FY2023-report comparatives because the selected FY2022 extraction is sparse.
Reading the tables: 0 (nil) is a supported zero. Other text distinguishes an amount included in another line, a non-applicable item, a separately unavailable component and an unresolved value. These are not interchangeable. Period-specific detail is labelled; complete year-by-year detail remains available.
After tax; includes A$10.15m exploration write-off.
30 June 2025 consolidated balance.
Net cash from financing activities.
30 June 2025 carrying amount.
The company was an exploration and development issuer throughout the review period. Cash from operations was negative in every year; equity financing and changing exploration outlays largely explain the cash bridge. The largest comparability break is the FY2025 exploration write-off, while the FY2022 balance sheet is shown from FY2023 comparative statements.
The group commissioned an in-house diamond drill rig in May 2021 while continuing gold and lithium exploration. Equity financing supported exploration and equipment outlays.
For the year ended 30 June 2022 the auditor gave an unmodified opinion with a material-uncertainty paragraph on going concern. The selected FY2022 auditor table discusses deferred exploration carrying value and no further impairment.
A farm-in joint venture with SQM was signed in July 2022. The FY2023 cash-flow statement records a farm-in cash contribution.
The directors described a shift toward the wholly owned Rushworth Gold project after a lithium-concentrate price fall. The annual report records a deferred exploration write-off.
The year ended with a $10.15 million exploration write-off, a larger statutory loss and $6.08 million of cash share proceeds. Issued ordinary shares reached 1.20 billion at 30 June 2025.
Dart Mining remained loss-making across the five annual periods. FY2025 includes a $10.15 million exploration write-off, which changes the scale of the loss; the Note 6 tax reconciliation reports nil income tax.
The FY2024 EPS rows in the selected annual extraction differ in precision: Note 9 has (0.8) cents, another FY2024 row rounds to (1) cent, and the FY2025 comparative gives (0.82) cent. The table uses the FY2024 Note 9 figure.

FY2025 total is labelled “Other revenue only” in Note 4; earlier totals are continuing-operations revenue. The change in label is visible in the trend. FY2021's A$28,969 is a combined government grant and other rebates line; it is not an other-sales amount or a separable rebate. FY2022–FY2024 amounts in the preceding row are other sales, and FY2025 states other sales and government rebates separately.

Operating and investing cash outflows were financed principally by share issuance. The cash bridge distinguishes net cash movement from accrual movements in issued capital.
The FY2023 cash-flow statement prints an operating subtotal A$10,000 more negative than its components and Note 22a reconciliation. The table preserves the printed subtotal and labels this conflict.

Deferred exploration spending rose through FY2024 then fell in FY2025 after the write-off. Property, plant and equipment is shown separately because its carrying amount is not the same as annual purchase payments.
The FY2025 printed PPE total exceeds the sum of the four selected Note 13 category values by A$158,013. The available selected table does not explain the difference, so the report retains the printed figures and does not construct a balancing item.
