Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation contains forward looking statements concerning the projects owned by India Resources Limited. Statements concerning mining
reserves and resources may also be deemed to be forward looking statements in that they involve estimates based on specific assumptions. Forward-
looking statements are not statements of historical fact and actual events and results may differ materially from those described in the forward looking
statements as a result of a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors. Forward looking statements are based on management’s beliefs, opinions
and estimates as of the dates the forward looking statements are made and no obligation is assumed to update forward looking statements if these
beliefs, opinions and estimates should change or to reflect other future developments.
Data and amounts shown in this presentation relating to capital costs, operating costs and project timelines are internally generated best estimates
only. All such information and data is currently under review as part of India Resources Limited’s ongoing development and feasibility studies.
Accordingly, India Resources Limited cannot guarantee the accuracy and/or completeness of the figures or data included in the presentation until the
feasibility studies are completed.
Competent Person’s Statement
The geological and assay statements and commentary in this presentation are based on information compiled by Andrew Kohler who is a member of
the Australian Institute of Mining & Metallurgy. Mr Kohler has reviewed the information and has satisfied himself that the values quoted and the
parameters used in the study are reasonable and accurately reflect the operations involved. Mr Kohler is a consultant of India Resources Limited and
has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration to qualify as a Competent Person as
defined in the 2004 Edition of the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves”. Mr Kohler consents
to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears.
The information in this presentation relating to the resource and reserve estimate for the Askot Project is based on information compiled by Mr Souvik B
Banerjee and Dr Jean-Francois Couture. Both Mr Souvik B Banerjee and Dr Jean-Francois Couture are members of Recognised Overseas
Professional Organisations included in a list promulgated by the ASX from time to time.
JORC – Exploration Targets
It is common practice for a company to comment on and discuss its exploration in terms of target size and type. The information in this presentation
relating to exploration targets should not be misunderstood or misconstrued as an estimate of Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves. Hence the terms
Resource(s) or Reserve(s) have not been used in this context. The potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature, since there has been
insufficient work completed to define them beyond exploration targets and that it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a
Mineral Resource.

Coal:
Rapid increase in domestic demand for
power generation
Strong requirement to replace high-cost
imported material
Slow pace for new development:
- More than 200 coal blocks allocated for
development
- Only handful currently in production
- Per capita consumption is very low
Investment Fundamentals – Key Commodities
Copper:
- Huge copper smelting capacity with more
than 95% of feed imported
- Strong potential for domestic copper
mining with known deposits

Why India?
World-class mineral resources with reserves including:
- 24 billion tonnes of iron ore – 5th largest in the world
- 2.4 billion tonnes of bauxite – 4th largest in the world
- 240 million tonnes of manganese – 2nd largest in the world
- 57 million tonnes of chromium – 3rd largest in the world
- 250 billion tonnes of coal – 4th largest in the world
Relatively under-explored in terms of mineral prospecting
Government initiatives:
- 100% FDI allowed under automatic route for mining of metal ores
- Strong Government support for investment in value-added metal manufacturing
- 2008 National Mining Policy will make it attractive for prospectors and mining
companies to invest in mineral exploration & development
- Although recent suggestion of profit sharing has put a bit of a dampener

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Surda Project
The Surda copper mine remains the cornerstone of
IRL’s business in India. The Surda mine and
Mosabani concentrator plant are located in the
Indian State of Jharkhand. IRL re-opened these in
2007, and from that time on it has made continual
improvements to increase mining and processing
capabilities, resulting in new production records
each year.
In the June 2014 quarter the Board of HCL formally
approved an extension of the term of the Surda
Operations Contract to the later of March 2017 or
the date of completion of the Surda Shaft Sinking
and Excavation contract awarded to Sriram EPC
(SEPC). This extension was achieved through IRL’s
wholly owned subsidiary, IRL Copper Mining Pvt Ltd
(ICMPL), entering into an agreement with SEPC to
undertake the Surda Expansion project on a back to
back basis in March 2013. This agreement required
the Surda Operations and Surda Expansion projects
to be executed simultaneously.
Surda underground mine loading ore
The Surda Copper mine is located in India’s prime
copper producing belt known as the Indian Copper
Complex (ICC). The ICC is a major zone of thrusting
and later extensional shearing to form the
Singhbhum Shear Zone, of Proterozoic rocks to the
east over Archean rocks of the Singhbhum Craton
to the west. Surda is one of several copper deposits
that have been mined since ancient times that are
associated with the Singhbhum shear.
Occupational Health and Safety
This year Surda continued its exceptional safety
performance with a Lost Time Injury Frequency
Rate (LTIFR) of 0.13. This is an improvement upon
last year’s rate of 0.75, both of which are below
world industry standards for metalliferrous
underground mining of this type.
The IRL safety management team is to be
commended for this extraordinary result, and
compared to the 2013 year the overall LTIFR has
been reduced by 83%.
The following safety areas were focused on in the
2014 year:
Hazard awareness and job safety analysis (JSA)
training of all staff.
Take 5 hazard identification reporting. Don’t go
past hazards without taking action.
Improved safety induction process
Strict disciplining action against safety
breaches.
Improved incentive scheme for improvements
to safety.
Working in confined space permitting and
safety protocols training.
Surda Mine Operations Review
Over the 2014 year the major disruption to
production was the ore transportation limit to the
Mosabani concentrator of 400,000 tonnes per
annum being reached in November 2013. The
resulting transport stoppage caused the ore to be
stockpiled at the mine until the new calendar year.
Despite this, IRL achieved another year of improved
production from the Surda Operations.

Block 6 from 4 to 3 Level. 100m of sill
development has been completed.
Revival program of geological mapping and
modelling enabling the development of cut
plans for mining of each newly exposed area of
a Block. This will greatly assist in waste
segregation, dilution control, blending and
mine planning to achieve an optimum copper
grade from the mine.
Establishment of a new sump at Level 9 is in
progress to improve the pumping system of
Shaft 4.
Establishment of the 890 ore pass for Block 6
uplifting after opening of the 890 Ore Transfer
point.

block 29 will increase Shaft 4’s production.
Block 28 (the extension above Block 32 from
Level 8 to 7) is in progress with the
commencement of the north long raise into
high grade copper mineralisation.
Block 1 extension above level 2 has
commenced.
Raise development from Level 6 to 5 has
commenced in Block 20.
As well as providing the Company with an ongoing
operating cash flow, the Surda project also
provides the Company with a platform of ready
expertise and infrastructure to carry out minerals
exploration, and to tender for additional
contracting work. Through the Surda operations
contract the Company won the Surda Expansion
project.
Surda Expansion Project
The Surda Expansion project is an important
project for IRL that will provide a continued and
sustainable future for the Company. IRL signed a
sub-contracting agreement with Indian company
SEPC whereby IRL will conduct all of the shaft
sinking and development work at the Surda mine.
Highlights to date:
Development of the shaft to 47 m including
shaft lining. Raises of 82.8m and drive
development of 495.7m
Staff numbers for the project have increased to
101 from 62 in the 2013 year as the work
ramps up.
Delivery and installation of part of the capital
equipment, electric/pneumatic loaders,
locomotives drill machine, pneumatic pumps
has been done.
The 260 Winze hoisting system has been
established, this will allow the expansion
development to carry on without impacting on
the ore haulage in this area.
Geology and Exploration
The Surda mine and copper deposit is owned by
Hindustan Copper Limited and operated under
contract by India Resources Limited.
The Surda copper mine is located in the
Singhbhum Copper Belt which comprises the
Singhbhum shear
zone. Copper mineralization is localized along this
shear zone. Prominent deposits of the belt are
Chapri, Rakha, Surda, Kendadih, Pathargora,
Dhobani and Mosabani.
In the 2013-2014 year HCL conducted a deep
diamond drilling program using the services of
Minerals Exploration Corporation Limited (MECL, a
Government of India enterprise). Drilling has been
collared at surface and accesses mineralisation
from approximately the 18 level and below. The
results of the program are yet to be released by
HCL.
The Surda deposit remains open at depth and
along strike to the north. Confidence in the
resources at Surda remains strong as
demonstrated by the Surda Expansion Project
involving shaft sinking to the 18 Level. Currently
the mine is at 12 level, approximately 450m below
the surface. The extent of the Surda workings and
Expansion Project are shown in the long section on
the following page.

Mosabani Concentrator
The concentrator plant continues to perform well
with the concentrate grade achieving 25.67% copper
(2013: 25.57%) during the year. The average recovery
and total copper metal in concentrate (MIC) was
92.84% (2013: 92.94%) and 3,428 tonnes (2013:
3,283) respectively. MIC equivalent mined exceeded
MIC dispatched by 422 tonnes due to the adverse
affects of the consent to operate limits that prevented
transportation and forced the plant to close in
November/December 2013.

Training and Development
The safety training team and employees are to be
congratulated for the 2014 year’s low LTIFR of 0.13.
This is a world class achievement in safety and is a
credit to all IRL’s training programs and instructors.
Another initiative is the implementation of an
apprentice training program. The program will involve
giving bright young people with the necessary
aptitude a chance to commence work with IRL under
an apprenticeship scheme; they will learn new skills
that will benefit themselves and the Company.
In December 2013 IRL in coordination with Hindustan
Copper Limited conducted an executive development
programme at the Surda training centre. The topic
was, ‘Managing Discipline in the Workplace’. Senior
management teams from both IRL and HCL attended
the training.

Environment
The plant site of the Mosabani Concentrator has to
meet many monitored environmental compliances.
The Environmental Department is the quiet achiever
at IRL that diligently undertakes their business of
sampling and creating awareness amongst staff. To
date all environmental parameters are within
statutory limits.
Exploration Projects
India in the late 1990’s changed its policies and
encouraged direct foreign investment. This along with
a range of other policy changes has allowed
opportunities to develop in India, and IRL is in a good
position to take advantage of them.
IRL has been applying for a number of tenements to
pursue exploration activities in India for base metals,
gold, iron ore, diamonds and coal. IRL’s ambition is to
explore, develop and operate its own mine in India.
IRL has entered into a joint venture arrangement for
its diamond projects.
IRL undertakes consulting work for other companies
both in mining and exploration and uses its expertise
from both India and Australia.
Aravalli (Base Metals)
The Aravalli project is made up of three components
that were generated from the Company’s exploration
of Reconnaissance Permit RP1- 2004:
Aravalli lead-zinc project now awaiting grant of
Mining License (ML). IRL’s wholly owned
subsidiary Crown Mining Pvt Ltd (Crown or CMPL)
has the preferential right to be granted the ML.
The Sathuddia Prospecting License (PL)
application located within RP1-2004.
The newly accepted but yet to be granted Hindoli
RP.
Crown has applied for the ML over the lead-zinc
mineralisation located along the same mineralisation
trend as the Vedanta PLC’s Sindesar-Khurd and
Rajpura-Dariba Mines.

Highlights:
Aravalli (ML 87/08)
Lobbying efforts for the grant of the Mining
Licence (ML 87/08) for the Aravalli project
continued throughout the year, including a
detailed representation to the Indian
Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion
(DIPP). The DIPP has agreed to support the
Aravalli project before the Project Management
Group, and the project has since been
successfully registered.
IRL’s mining lease contains significant base
metals mineralisation (see Exploration Target
discussion below).
IRL has also entered into discussions with
Hindustan Zinc Limited (HZL) regarding the
remaining overlapping licence applications.
CMPL submitted a Mandamus writ in November
2013 in the Jodhpur High Court, seeking the court
to direct the State Government, of Rajasthan to
dispose of the notice/representation dated 23
October 2013 to consider the preferential right of
CMPL to be granted the Aravalli ML under section
11(1) of MMDR Act, 1957. The Jodhpur High
Court vide Order has directed the State
Government to consider the representation
within one month from the date of service of the
certified copy, of the order by CMPL. This was
delivered on 24 December 2013 and received by
the State Government on 1 January 2014, leaving
them until the end of January to respond to the
order of the High Court. At this stage IRL has not
further intensified the legal follow up because
helpful responses are being received from the
Rajasthan State Government. Instead, IRL has
increased lobbying at higher levels of the Indian
Government bureaucracy.
The Rajasthan Department of Mines has
submitted a report defining the nature of
overlapping claims of mining lease applications
submitted by Hindustan Zinc Limited and
Terramine Developers Private Limited over
prospective areas covering the Aravalli project
claimed by IRL subsidiary, CMPL. The report is in
accordance with CMPL’s request for the
Department to bring up to date Aravalli’s
prospecting and title data.
The status report for ML 87/08 from the
Department of Mining and Geology (DMG) has
been submitted to the State Government which
states that a 667 hectare area at present is
available in favour of IRL subsidiary, Crown
Mining. Two overlapping PL applications of HZL
are under a cancellation process which is pending
with the State Government. Once complete a
total of 1,500 hectares are expected to be
available in CMPL’s favour. CMPL is seeking 2,500
hectares in total.
‘Invest India’ (the national investment promotion
and facilitation agency for foreign investors in
India) has acknowledged all IRL issues in regard
to the Aravalli base metals project. In this
process, letters of request for a favourable
response have been sent to the Principal
Secretary (Mines) of Rajasthan and all the
concerned State officials in favour of IRL
enquiring about the progress made by the State
Government in the Aravalli project mining licence
and prospecting licence applications.
Aravalli Project Resource Statement
The Company’s Aravalli Project in Rajasthan has
reported the existence of substantial lead-zinc
mineralisation on its Mining Lease application, for
which the Company has provided a historic (foreign)
resource estimate and the Company’s own
exploration target. The Mining Lease application has
not yet been granted, so no further update on these
estimates has been possible; an upgrade to JORC
compliance awaits the grant of the mining lease and
subsequent drilling by IRL.
Foreign Resource Estimate – Geological Survey of India
As documented in the Company’s ASX announcement
of 23 July, 2014, the Geological Survey of India (GSI)
estimated 165.6 million tonnes of mineralisation at
2.3% Zn, 0.7% Pb at a minimum of a 2% Pb + Zn cut
off, which lie in areas covered by the Company’s
Mining Lease application. The Company is not in
possession of any new information or data relating to
the historical estimate that materially impacts on the
reliability of the estimate or the Company’s ability to
verify the historical estimate in accordance with the
JORC Code. The supporting information provided in
the initial market announcement referred to
continues to apply and has not materially changed.
This Foreign Resource Estimate is not reported in
accordance with the JORC code and it is uncertain
that following evaluation and/or further
exploration the resource will be able to be
reported in accordance with the JORC Code. A
competent person has not done sufficient work to
classify these historic, foreign estimates in
accordance with the JORC code.
The Foreign Estimates are sourced from
exploration reports by the GSI dated from 1983 to
Page 10
INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014
1993 on several “blocks” in the area: principally
Sindesar Kalan (Bapna et al 1983), Mokanpura
North (Samadder et al 1984) and North Sindesar
Ridge (Yadav et al 1993). The Foreign Estimates
were generated from exploration work, mainly
diamond drilling, undertaken by the GSI. The
Foreign estimates were repeated in Table 33 of
the GSI Miscellaneous Publication no. 30 “Geology
and Mineral Resources of Rajasthan" dated 2001.
It is the opinion of IRL that the Foreign Estimates
quoted are highly relevant to the value of the
Aravalli Project as they provide an estimation as to
the quantum of base metal mineralisation present
in the Mining Lease (ML) application area.
Having examined the protocols and criteria
observed in the estimation of the Foreign
Estimate, it is in the opinion of Mr Eoin Rothery,
who is a Member of the Australian Institute of
Geoscientists and can be described as a
Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition
of the Australasian Code for Reporting of
Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore
Reserves (JORC, 2012), that the resources quoted
are reliable as to the quantum of mineralisation
and an accurate representation of the available
data and studies for the Aravalli Project. In
summary these criteria are:
o Exploration was methodically carried out by
the GSI to delineate a number of mineralised
lodes within the Aravalli Project area
extending north from the operating mine at
Rajpura Dariba.
o Base metal mineralisation estimates were
compiled by GSI for 14 “blocks” extending
north from Rajpura Dariba up till 1993 and GSI
work in the area is continuing to the present
day.
o Base metal mineralisation estimates were
produced by the GSI from an assay data-set
compiled from surface diamond drilling;
o GSI Sampling methodology is well
documented;
o GSI quality control of the assays is
documented and appears diligent;
o The estimate methodology for each lode is
compiled by GSI using a polygonal estimation
technique;
o The average bulk density used by GSI was
2.5t/m3
for the generally fresh, garnet
graphitic schist host rock which appears
reasonable.
Materiality
o IRL considers the Foreign Estimate is material
as IRL has applied for a Mining Lease over the
area through its subsidiary Crown Mining Pvt
Ltd and the grade and tonnage of the Foreign
Estimates imply that there is potential for the
economic extraction and treatment of this
base metal-bearing material.
o IRL intends to complete a program of drilling
to confirm the Foreign Estimate. These
additional exploration programs will be
combined with the historical information to
seek to generate a base metal Mineral
Resource which will be in compliance with the
reporting guidelines of the JORC code.
o IRL considers that the Foreign Estimate from
the GSI is estimated under criteria comparable
to the Inferred Mineral Resource category of
the JORC code, although the terminology used
by GSI is “Proved and Possible Ore Reserves”.
The difference comes down to geological
continuity and drill hole spacing which at
around an average of 200m is considered too
wide to define Reserves.
o There has been no relevant resource estimate
update since the Company’s announcement
of 23 July, 2014.
o IRL intends to conduct progressive exploration
with the intention of bringing base metal
deposits at the Aravalli Project into
compliance with the JORC code within the
first year of exploration after grant of the
Mining Lease. IRL has begun the process of
transferring historical information into digital
format, obtaining topographic surveys and has
conducted initial limited drilling at a standard
suitable for generating a resource estimate in
compliance with the reporting of Mineral
Resources as defined by the JORC Code.
o In IRL’s considered opinion this report is
consistent with the guidance contained in the
ASX Listing Rules, Chapter 5 and the ASX
Listing Rules Guidance Note no. 31.
o The information in this report that relates to
Exploration Results or Mineral Resources is
based on information compiled by Mr Eoin
Rothery, who is a member of the Australian
Institute Geoscientists. Mr Rothery has
sufficient experience relevant to the style of
mineralisation and types of deposits under
consideration and to the activity which he is
undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person
as defined in the 2012 Australasian Code for
Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral
Resources and Ore Reserves (JORC, 2012). Mr
Rothery accepts responsibility for the
accuracy of the information disclosed relating
to the requirements for historical and foreign

Rules, Chapter 5 and the ASX Listing Rules
Guidance Note no. 31
Exploration Target
IRL has previously reported an exploration target at
the Aravalli Project in the range of 95-135 million
tonnes at between 2.2 to 4.5% zinc and 0.7 to 1.8%
lead (“Quarterly activities and cash flow report” 31
July, 2008) and in the announcement dated 23 July
2014. This exploration target should not be mistaken
for an estimate of Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves.
The potential quantity and grade is conceptual in
nature, there has been insufficient exploration as yet
to define a Mineral Resource, and it is uncertain if
further exploration will result in the determination of
a Mineral Resource. Further drilling will be required to
establish JORC standard estimates of Resources. The
figures are based on the above historic resource
estimate by the Geological Survey of India (GSI) and
subsequent drilling and modeling by IRL.
The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new
information or data that materially affects the
information included in the original market
announcement. The Company confirms that the form
and context in which the Competent Person’s findings
are presented have not been materially modified from
the original market announcement. The deposit is of a
SEDEX style similar to Mount Isa in Australia. There is
potential to upgrade the target substantially in both
tonnes and grade by further drilling and higher grade
zones can be identified within it.
IRL set out to validate and extend the mineralisation
in the GSI estimate above for the blocks in IRL’s ML
application area with its own drilling. However in
doing so IRL was restricted by Indian Mining
Legislation in the number of holes it could drill under
its Reconnaissance Permit and further drilling is
needed which will take place once the Mining Lease is
granted. A total of six deep diamond drill holes for a
total of 3,349m were drilled.
Using the GSI and IRL drilling as well as other
information on the geology of the area IRL
wireframed and 3D modelled the zones. The model
was interrogated to come up with the exploration
target given above. Further drilling to target high
grade zones and upgrade the exploration target to a
JORC estimate is planned on grant of the Mining
Lease.

and IRL drilling. The grey areas are mining leases of Vedanta Resources’
subsidiary Hindustan Zinc Limited excised from within IRL’s RP.
The information in this report that relates to Exploration Targets,
Exploration Results, Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves is based on
information compiled by Eoin Rothery, a Competent Person who is
a Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists. Eoin
Rothery is employed by India Resources Ltd on a consultancy basis
and is an employee of Thomson Resources Ltd. Eoin Rothery has
sufficient experience that is relevant to the style of mineralisation
and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity being
undertaken to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the
2012 Edition of the ‘Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration
Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves’. Eoin Rothery
consents to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on his
information in the form and context in which it appears
Sathuddia (Base Metals)
The Sathuddia base metals project falls within the
area of the Aravalli RP1/2004. Following positive
exploration results on RP1/2004 a Prospecting Licence
application was made. From Crown’s previously
reported drill results the area produced significant
copper grades with the best intercept being 9m at
1.7% copper. The Sathuddia PL application area is
significant because drilling is limited and centred on
old workings and there is potential to expand the
known copper mineralization at depth and along
strike.
The State Government of Rajasthan has not accepted
the plea of CMPL and vide Order dated 11/6/2014
stating that according to Sec 11(1)(D) of MMRD Act
1957, PL application 56/2010 has been cancelled.
CMPL has decided to challenge this Order in the
Revision Court of Ministry of Mines (New Delhi).

INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014
Hindoli (Base Metals)
The Hindoli reconnaissance permit (RP) application
area is located to the northeast of the Aravalli Project.
The approval of the Government of Rajasthan is
pending. Crown is in the process of executing the RP
license application. After negotiations with the
Government of Rajasthan the area of the RP was
reduced from that which was reported in the previous
year to 677 km2 this was done to expedite the
execution of the RP application. The Hindoli RP is
located between large Anglo American, HZL and ACC
Rio Tinto RPs.
The Hindoli RP has excellent structural settings,
prospective lithological units and numerous recorded
instances of surface mineralisation, primarily copper,
lead, zinc, silver and gold. IRL believe that this area
has the potential to be a substantial project for the
company.
Badiya (Copper)
The Badiya Mining Lease application is along the same
trend as the Surda copper mine within the highly
prospective ground of the Singhbhum shear Zone.
Badiya is located 3km to the south of the now closed
mine of Mosabani that is the current site of IRL’s
processing facility, the Mosabani Concentrator. The
Badiya copper mineralisation has been traced along
strike for hundreds of metres and was once an
operating mine that closed in the 1980’s due to the
low copper prices. The major sulphide minerals are
copper bearing chalcopyrite and also pyrite. The
country rocks are metamorphosed sediments and
metavolcanics of Pre-Cambrian age. The host rocks
are quartz-chlorite-biotite schists and sometimes
feldspathic schists the mineralised zone strikes
indirection of 0200 and dips 30-350 (similar to Surda).
It is IRL’s opinion that Badiya is very prospective for
copper and has the potential after exploration for the
discovery of significant mineralisation close to the
Mosabani Concentrator. So far the ML application has
progressed through the Director Geology of
Jharkhand, who has requested more information
concerning the previous work on the property and
this is being followed up by IRL. The District forest
office has completed their report and the application
is under the scrutiny of the District Mining Office.
Singhbhum (Copper)
IRL develops and pursues mineral license applications
for copper and other commodities particularly in close
proximity to its flagship area, the Surda Mine and
Mosabani concentrator, (where the ore is processed).
These applications when granted will provide
synergies with IRL’s primary business.
Two recent Prospecting Licence applications have
been the Sohada and Baharagora areas located
between Surda and Mosabani and are prospective for
copper.
Diamonds (Bhandara, Dharwar)
The IRL Bhandara and Dharwar diamond projects are
in a joint venture between IRL and a private Indian
diamond company, Vajra Diamond Mining Private
Limited (Vajra).
Bhandara (Orissa)
The area of the Prospecting License PL 410 application
is 10 km north of Nuapada diamondiferous
kimberlites. IRL through its subsidiary, Amil Mining
Private Limited, has the preferential right to be
granted this PL.
Dharwar (Andhra Pradesh)
Renewal of prospecting licenses PL309 and 306 are
pending with the State Government of Andhra
Pradesh. After renewal, bulk sampling is planned for
the Kimberlite Pipe, CC4 located on Prospecting
License PL 309. On PL 306 Geophysical work is
planned to locate potential targets for follow up
sampling.
Bonai (Iron ore)
IRL has maintained its portfolio of 14 mineral license
applications for iron ore in the states of Orissa and
Jharkhand. IRL is also investigating the potential of
forming joint ventures with iron ore mining and
exploration companies in the Bonai region of India
with the vision of developing iron ore prospects or
acquiring leases.
Business Development
Several of IRL Projects have commenced operations:
The Surda Operation contract extension has
been formally signed by HCL, and IRL and is in
operation.
The Surda Expansion Project has commenced
in earnest.
The Rakha Copper Project is held up while HCL
obtain the necessary environmental
clearances from the Government.
Surda Operations Extension
IRL has been awarded the extension of the Surda
Operation contract. Critical details are as follows:
Page 13
INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014
The IRL Surda Operating contract is currently valid
until March 2017 or the conclusion of the Surda II
Expansion project.
The contract is self sustaining and underpins the
other contracts in the area.
Surda Expansion Project
Update on Surda Expansion Project
IRL Copper Mining Pvt Ltd (ICMPL), a wholly owned
subsidiary of India Resources Limited, has successfully
started the Surda Expansion work of shaft sinking and
allied mine development at the Surda mine.
The work achieved in the 2013-2014 year is as
follows:
Hindustan Copper Limited (HCL) awarded the contract
for the Stage II development of Surda Mine to Shriram
EPC (SEPC) in November 2011. The contract involves
development up to Level 18 from the current Level 10
and sinking of one new vertical shaft to a depth of
600m. SEPC have awarded the contract to ICMPL as
Sub-Contractor on a back to back basis.
Terms of the agreement are:
This sub-contracting project with SEPC offers solid
returns to IRL shareholders at minimal risk and
without requiring significant cash outlays.
All aspects of the funding of the project, including
bank guarantees but excluding working capital,
falls under the responsibility of SEPC.
Surda Expansion project equipment
Rakha Copper Project
Hindustan Copper Limited is following up on
environmental clearances for the Rakha Copper
project. Once obtained the IRL – Kopex consortium
will progress and finalise the contract agreement with
HCL.
The Project involves re-opening, operation and
expansion of the Rakha Mine to produce at a rate of
1.5 million tonnes per year of copper ore. The Rakha
Copper Mine is located 7km north of IRL’s current
Surda operation, along strike and within the same
geological structure of the Indian Copper Complex,
Jharkhand. The Board of Directors of Hindustan
Copper Limited, have approved the award of the
contract to the IRL/KOPEX consortium.
The scope of work includes dewatering, rehabilitation
and installation of new winders for Rakha old shafts,
sinking a 7.1m diameter shaft to a depth of 330m,
excavation of a decline of length 2,359m, excavation
of 10,200m of drives and crosscuts at various levels.
The total period of the contract is five years.
IRL CONSORTIUMS
IRL/TATA
IRL and Tata Projects Limited jointly qualified for the
Concentrate Ore Treatment Tailings project at the
Khetri Copper Complex (HCL). HCL proposed a pre-bid
meeting in April 2014. Mineral Technologies, part of
the Downer EDI Group, has agreed to join the team as
a technology partner.
IRL/KOPEX
The IRL-Kopex consortium was formed to tender for
underground projects. The consortium is evaluating
opportunities and exploring and follow up is ongoing.
IRL/ Briety Limited
The IRL-Brierty consortium was formed to tender for
open pit projects and have taken the following
initiatives:
Creating a database of open pit tenders. Initial
meetings, applications for several tenders and
follow up.

Hindustan Copper Limited (HCL) and IRL Claims
IRL has several claims against HCL. Developments over
the 2014 year are as follows:
1. In September 2014 IRL received an unfavourable
decision from the Supreme Court regarding HCL’s
treatment of the contract price under the work
order as if it was inclusive of taxes and levies. IRL
is reviewing its options on this matter. No value is
reported in IRL’s financial position for this claim.
2. An amount of $122,000 in interest payments
relating to the Arbitration Award was received by
$1.5M AUD as at September 2014), and the
refund of two years liquidated damage payments
(15M INR or $0.27M AUD) based on the
Arbitrator’s decision, IRL in the June 2014
quarter. The Arbitration Award for material
escalation (estimated at 85M INR or are expected
to be considered by the HCL Board in October
2014. The limitation period has expired and HCL
has not challenged the Award.
3. IRL has well progressed claims for fixed costs
incurred during the plant closures in 2012/13 and
November/December 2013 due to the consent to
operate limits being reached. IRL expects to
receive 20M INR ($0.35M AUD) for these.
IRL has a number of other claims that it is yet to
progress to an advanced stage with HCL. IRL’s claims
in relation to the Arbitration Award and the fixed
costs amount to 120M INR ($2.1M) are well advanced
and IRL is confident these will be received.
Nonetheless these claims are yet to be recorded in
IRL’s financial statements.
The information in this report that relates to exploration targets or
exploration results is based on information compiled by Andrew
Kohler, a Competent Person, who is a member of the Australian
Institute of Geoscientists. Mr Kohler is Group Technical Manager

DIRECTORS' REPORT
The Directors of India Resources Limited (Company) present their report together with the financial report of
the Group (consisting of the Company and its controlled entities, referred to hereafter as the Group) for the
financial year ended 30 June 2014.
DIRECTORS
The names of the Directors of the Company in office during the course of the financial year and up to the date
of this report are as follows:
Andrew Simpson (Non Executive Chairman)
Arvind Misra (Managing Director)
David Humann (Non Executive)
Unless otherwise indicated, all Directors held their position as a director throughout the entire financial year
and up to the date of this report.
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
The principal continuing activities of the Group during the financial year were copper mining and mineral
exploration.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The net loss of the Group after provision for income tax for the year ended 30 June 2014 was $2,273,000
(2013: $785,000). Group EBITDA for the year was a loss of $1,163,000 (2013: profit of $933,000).
The loss includes exploration expenditure written off of $929,000 in relation to the Bonai Iron Ore Project, and
does not include $2M that the Company expects to receive from Hindustan Copper Limited (HCL) in relation
to the Arbitration Award won in August 2013 and other well advanced claims made by the Company for fixed
costs in relation to the plant closures in 2012/13 and 2013/14 due to the consent to operate limits imposed
on HCL’s mining license.
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
During the year, the Group continued its copper mining and other exploration and development activities in
India. Copper in concentrate production at the Surda mine for the year was 3,428 tonnes, a similar result to
last year’s 3,283. The mine actually produced the equivalent copper metal in concentrate of 3,850 tonnes, but
due to the consent to operate production limits some of this ore material remained in stockpiles awaiting
processing at the end of the financial year. During the year, production levels achieved were above the cash
flow break-even level for the mine after capital expenditure requirements. The very good safety performance
continued.
On the development front, the final Conditions Precedent for the Group’s four year sub-contracting project
with Shriram EPC Limited for the Surda Expansion Project were finalised. The IRL led consortium with Kopex
was issued the Letter of Intent from HCL to award the Rakha copper project, but the contract signing has been
delayed until HCL is awarded its renewal of the mining licence from the Jharkhand state Government. The
Group has been granted an extension of its operations at Surda to the later of March 2017, or the completion
of the Surda Expansion Project. The possible gross future income to be derived from carrying out these
projects is estimated to be $132 million.
During the year the Group continued to progress its long standing legal dispute with HCL as to whether the
Surda Operations contract should be inclusive or exclusive of taxation, however subsequent to year end this
case was decided against IRL. The Company continues to consider its options in relation to this case, which
include another appeal to the Supreme Court of India. Other claims are progressing, with $0.55M paid in the
March quarter 2014 and $0.12M paid in the June 2014 quarter which related to the Arbitration Award. The
Arbitration Award for material escalation (estimated at 73M INR or $1.34M AUD), and the refund of two years
liquidated damage payments (15M INR or $0.27M AUD) based on the Arbitrator’s decision, are expected to be
Page 16
INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014
considered by the HCL Board in the near future. The Group expects to receive these payments as the
limitation period has expired and HCL has not challenged the Award.
Exploration activities during the year included further work on securing ground for various projects, especially
the Aravalli base metals project.
DIVIDENDS
The Directors do not recommend the payment of a dividend (2013: Nil).
LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
During the course of the next financial year the Group has continued its copper mining and expansion work at
the Surda copper mine, however subsequent to year end both projects have been halted by a stop work
instruction from HCL. This instruction impacts many mines in the State of Jharkhand, and whilst it cannot be
known when this instruction will be lifted every effort is being made by many affected parties to enable
mining to recommence.
The Group will continue to seek to sign a contract for the Rakha copper project and commence this work. It
will also continue its mineral exploration and development activities in India, and consider other resource
projects in which the Group may participate.
The Group is considering its options regarding its loss in the Supreme Court of India. It will continue to pursue
several other large legal claims with HCL, and it remains confident that some of these will be resolved in its
favour in the immediate future.
In the opinion of the Directors there is no additional information available as at the date of this report on any
likely developments which may materially affect the operations of the Group and the expected results of
those operations in subsequent years.
OPTIONS GRANTED OVER UNISSUED SHARES
At reporting date, 35,013,066 (2013: 50,663,066) ordinary fully paid shares which are subject to options were

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES
Significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group during the financial year were as follows:
(a) In July 2013 IRL and its consortium partner, Kopex PBSz, were issued a Letter of Intent by Hindustan
Copper Limited (HCL) to award them the contract for the Rakha Copper Project.
(b) During the financial year an Arbitrator awarded three of our four claims against HCL in favour of IRL.
At that time these claims were estimated to be worth $1.154M, noting that the claim for material
escalation continues to grow each month.
Page 17
INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014
(c) In March 2014 the Group received 30M INR ($0.55M AUD) from Hindustan Copper Limited being a
part payment of the total amount awarded to IRL by an Arbitrator against HCL.
EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO THE END OF THE FINANCIAL YEAR
Significant events which have occurred subsequent to the end of the financial year were as follows:
(a) In August 2014 the Company signed a placement agreement with Resources Capital Fund VI L.P. (RCF)
to issue up to 200 million fully paid ordinary shares at $0.008 each to raise $1.6 million (before costs).
The issue is to be completed in two tranches; the first tranche of 73,897,694 shares to raise $591,182
was subject to IRL entering into a legally binding term sheet with Noble Resources International Pty
Ltd (Noble) for the issue of 90 million shares at a deemed issue price of $0.008 per share to extinguish
the loan payable to Noble of $0.72M. The second tranche of up to 126,102,306 shares to raise up to
an additional $1,008,818 is subject to shareholder approval and limited so that RCF’s voting power in
the Company does not exceed 19.9%
(b) In September 2014 the Company entered into a placement agreement with Noble for the issue of 90
million shares at a deemed issue price of $0.008 per Share to extinguish the secured loan of $0.72
million. In accordance with the Loan Repayment Agreement 72.8 million shares were issued as partial
repayment of $582,400 from the loan. The balance of the loan of $137,600 will be satisfied by the
issue of a further 17.2 million shares to be issued contemporaneously with the completion of the
second tranche of the share placement with RCF which remains subject to the approval of
shareholders.
(c) In September 2014 the Company issued and allotted 73,897,694 fully paid ordinary shares to RCF at
an issue price of $0.008 per share to raise $591,182 (before costs).
(d) In September 2014 IRL received an instruction from Hindustan Copper Limited (HCL) to stop non-
essential production and development operations at the Surda mine site. The instruction is
understood to affect a number of mines, and is a result of the Jharkhand State Government (JSG)
enforcing recent amendments to the mineral concession rules regarding mines that continue to await
the renewal of their mining licence. Whilst it cannot be known how long the Stop Work Notice will
remain in effect, it is noted that the closure of the mines is having a significant detrimental economic
effect on the Jharkhand economy. The closures impact a number of organisations, including
significantly large enterprises and Indian government enterprises. This is creating financial, political
and social pressure on the JSG to bring about a solution to enable the mines to recommence
production.
In response to the Stop Work Notice, HCL has filed a Writ Petition (WP) requesting stay of the order
issued by the JSG. As an affected party, the Company has filed an Interlocutory Application in support
of HCL’s WP. Other large companies are filing similar WPs. HCL is also pursuing the renewal of the
Surda mining lease with the JSG, and it is understood that the JSG cabinet is will be meeting to
consider the issue. This cabinet has the power to allow the resumption of operations.
During the stoppage the majority of IRL’s workforce has been placed on an official No Work No Pay
notice. Approximately 25% of its workforce is engaged in care and maintenance work, including
essential maintenance of the shaft systems and their machineries. IRL is also cleaning up the mine by
removing saleable scrap from underground. These actions will make the mine safer and more
efficient when normal operations resume.
IRL has requested HCL to reimburse its costs for the period during which the Stop Work Notice
remained effective, noting that HCL is responsible for the mining lease and that it pays care and
maintenance to other mines in similar circumstances.
(e) In September 2014 IRL lost its case in the Supreme Court of India regarding HCL’s treatment of the
contract price under the Surda work order as if it was inclusive of taxes and levies.

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)
This report sets out the remuneration arrangements in place for Directors and key management personnel of
the Company and the Group in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its
regulations. For the purposes of this report key management personnel are defined as those persons having
authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Company and the
Group, directly or indirectly, including any Director (whether executive or otherwise) of the Company. The
information provided in this remuneration report has been audited as required by Section 308(3C) of the
Corporations Act 2001.
Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration
Directors’ and executives’ remuneration
Overall remuneration policies are determined by the Board of Directors and are adapted to reflect
competitive market and business conditions. Within this framework, the remuneration committee meets,
both formally and informally, to consider remuneration policies and practices generally and determines
specific remuneration packages and other terms of employment for executive Directors and senior
management. Executives may be provided with longer-term incentives through participation in option
schemes, which serve to align the interests of the executives with those of shareholders. Executive
Page 20
INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014
remuneration and other terms of employment are reviewed by the remuneration committee having regard to
performance, relevant comparative information and expert advice.
The Company’s remuneration policy for executive Directors and senior management is designed to promote
superior performance and long term commitment to the Company. Remuneration packages are set at levels
that are intended to attract and retain executives capable of managing the Group’s operations. Executive
Directors receive a base remuneration which is market related, together with performance based
remuneration linked to the achievement of pre-determined milestones and targets.
The Company’s remuneration policies are designed to align executives’ remuneration with shareholders’
interests and to retain appropriately qualified executive talent for the benefit of the Company. The main
principles of the policy include:
- reward reflects the competitive market in which the Group operates;
- individual reward should be linked to performance criteria; and
- executives should be rewarded for both financial and non-financial performance.
The structure of remuneration packages for executive Directors and other senior executives comprises:
- a fixed sum base salary payable monthly in cash;
- short term incentives, through eligibility to participate in performance bonus plans and cash bonuses;
- long term incentives through executive Directors being eligible to participate in the share option plan as
approved by shareholders. Senior executives may also participate in the employee share option plan, with
any option issues generally being made in accordance with thresholds set in plans approved by
shareholders; and
- other benefits, including participation in superannuation schemes.
The proportion of fixed and variable remuneration is established for each executive by the remuneration
committee. The objective of any short term incentives is to link the achievement of the Group’s operational
targets with the remuneration received by executives charged with meeting those targets. The objective of
long term incentives is to reward executives in a manner which aligns this element of their remuneration with
the creation of shareholder wealth. The Group’s activities comprise the exploration, evaluation and
development of mineral tenements aimed at identifying economic mineral deposits capable of development.
The Group’s financial performance reflects the nature of these ongoing activities.
The payment of bonuses, share options and other incentive payments are reviewed by the Board as part of
the review of executive remuneration and a recommendation is put to the Board for approval. The Board can
exercise its discretion in relation to approving incentives, bonuses and options. Any changes must be justified
by reference to measurable performance criteria.
The annual performance objectives are the means by which the Company links Company performance and
remuneration policy. Having regard to the current stage of the Group’s development, the linking of
remuneration policy to production performance milestones and progress rather than earnings is considered
the most appropriate method of rewarding relevant senior executives. These principles are expected to
continue to provide appropriate incentives for key management personnel.
Non-executive Directors’ remuneration
In accordance with current corporate governance practices, the structure for the remuneration of non-
executive Directors and senior executives is separate and distinct. Shareholders approve the maximum fees
payable to non-executive Directors, with the current approved limit being $500,000. The Board determines
the actual payments to Directors. The Board approves any consultancy arrangements for non-executive
Directors who provide services outside of and in addition to their duties as non-executive Directors.
Non-executive Directors are entitled to statutory superannuation benefits. At this stage of the Company’s
development, non-executive Directors may be entitled to participate in equity based remuneration schemes.
Shareholders must approve the framework for any equity based compensation schemes and if a
recommendation is made for a director to participate in an equity scheme, that participation must be
Page 21
INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014
specifically approved by the shareholders. All Directors are entitled to have their indemnity insurance paid by
the Company.
During the financial year ended 30 June 2014 the company did not engage remuneration consultants.

  • 1. Corporate Presentation Arvind Misra – Managing Director
  • 2. Disclaimer Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward looking statements concerning the projects owned by India Resources Limited. Statements concerning mining reserves and resources may also be deemed to be forward looking statements in that they involve estimates based on specific assumptions. Forward- looking statements are not statements of historical fact and actual events and results may differ materially from those described in the forward looking statements as a result of a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors. Forward looking statements are based on management’s beliefs, opinions and estimates as of the dates the forward looking statements are made and no obligation is assumed to update forward looking statements if these beliefs, opinions and estimates should change or to reflect other future developments. Data and amounts shown in this presentation relating to capital costs, operating costs and project timelines are internally generated best estimates only. All such information and data is currently under review as part of India Resources Limited’s ongoing development and feasibility studies. Accordingly, India Resources Limited cannot guarantee the accuracy and/or completeness of the figures or data included in the presentation until the feasibility studies are completed. Competent Person’s Statement The geological and assay statements and commentary in this presentation are based on information compiled by Andrew Kohler who is a member of the Australian Institute of Mining & Metallurgy. Mr Kohler has reviewed the information and has satisfied himself that the values quoted and the parameters used in the study are reasonable and accurately reflect the operations involved. Mr Kohler is a consultant of India Resources Limited and has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2004 Edition of the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves”. Mr Kohler consents to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears. The information in this presentation relating to the resource and reserve estimate for the Askot Project is based on information compiled by Mr Souvik B Banerjee and Dr Jean-Francois Couture. Both Mr Souvik B Banerjee and Dr Jean-Francois Couture are members of Recognised Overseas Professional Organisations included in a list promulgated by the ASX from time to time. JORC – Exploration Targets It is common practice for a company to comment on and discuss its exploration in terms of target size and type. The information in this presentation relating to exploration targets should not be misunderstood or misconstrued as an estimate of Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves. Hence the terms Resource(s) or Reserve(s) have not been used in this context. The potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature, since there has been insufficient work completed to define them beyond exploration targets and that it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource. 2

  • 36. Page 3 INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014 REVIEW OF OPERATIONS Surda Project The Surda copper mine remains the cornerstone of IRL’s business in India. The Surda mine and Mosabani concentrator plant are located in the Indian State of Jharkhand. IRL re-opened these in 2007, and from that time on it has made continual improvements to increase mining and processing capabilities, resulting in new production records each year. In the June 2014 quarter the Board of HCL formally approved an extension of the term of the Surda Operations Contract to the later of March 2017 or the date of completion of the Surda Shaft Sinking and Excavation contract awarded to Sriram EPC (SEPC). This extension was achieved through IRL’s wholly owned subsidiary, IRL Copper Mining Pvt Ltd (ICMPL), entering into an agreement with SEPC to undertake the Surda Expansion project on a back to back basis in March 2013. This agreement required the Surda Operations and Surda Expansion projects to be executed simultaneously. Surda underground mine loading ore The Surda Copper mine is located in India’s prime copper producing belt known as the Indian Copper Complex (ICC). The ICC is a major zone of thrusting and later extensional shearing to form the Singhbhum Shear Zone, of Proterozoic rocks to the east over Archean rocks of the Singhbhum Craton to the west. Surda is one of several copper deposits that have been mined since ancient times that are associated with the Singhbhum shear. Occupational Health and Safety This year Surda continued its exceptional safety performance with a Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR) of 0.13. This is an improvement upon last year’s rate of 0.75, both of which are below world industry standards for metalliferrous underground mining of this type. The IRL safety management team is to be commended for this extraordinary result, and compared to the 2013 year the overall LTIFR has been reduced by 83%. The following safety areas were focused on in the 2014 year: Hazard awareness and job safety analysis (JSA) training of all staff. Take 5 hazard identification reporting. Don’t go past hazards without taking action. Improved safety induction process Strict disciplining action against safety breaches. Improved incentive scheme for improvements to safety. Working in confined space permitting and safety protocols training. Surda Mine Operations Review Over the 2014 year the major disruption to production was the ore transportation limit to the Mosabani concentrator of 400,000 tonnes per annum being reached in November 2013. The resulting transport stoppage caused the ore to be stockpiled at the mine until the new calendar year. Despite this, IRL achieved another year of improved production from the Surda Operations.

Page 5 INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014 Development Highlights Work has commenced to remove the sump above Block 180 North, Level 11 which will give access to material with a forecast copper head grade of 1.2%. The waste segregation program continues in all Blocks to reduce the dilution of the copper grade. Block 29 - dewatering and raise development is ongoing. One pneumatic loader and loco are deployed in this block. The production from block 29 will increase Shaft 4’s production. Block 28 (the extension above Block 32 from Level 8 to 7) is in progress with the commencement of the north long raise into high grade copper mineralisation. Block 1 extension above level 2 has commenced. Raise development from Level 6 to 5 has commenced in Block 20. As well as providing the Company with an ongoing operating cash flow, the Surda project also provides the Company with a platform of ready expertise and infrastructure to carry out minerals exploration, and to tender for additional contracting work. Through the Surda operations contract the Company won the Surda Expansion project. Surda Expansion Project The Surda Expansion project is an important project for IRL that will provide a continued and sustainable future for the Company. IRL signed a sub-contracting agreement with Indian company SEPC whereby IRL will conduct all of the shaft sinking and development work at the Surda mine. Highlights to date: Development of the shaft to 47 m including shaft lining. Raises of 82.8m and drive development of 495.7m Staff numbers for the project have increased to 101 from 62 in the 2013 year as the work ramps up. Delivery and installation of part of the capital equipment, electric/pneumatic loaders, locomotives drill machine, pneumatic pumps has been done. The 260 Winze hoisting system has been established, this will allow the expansion development to carry on without impacting on the ore haulage in this area. Geology and Exploration The Surda mine and copper deposit is owned by Hindustan Copper Limited and operated under contract by India Resources Limited. The Surda copper mine is located in the Singhbhum Copper Belt which comprises the Singhbhum shear zone. Copper mineralization is localized along this shear zone. Prominent deposits of the belt are Chapri, Rakha, Surda, Kendadih, Pathargora, Dhobani and Mosabani. In the 2013-2014 year HCL conducted a deep diamond drilling program using the services of Minerals Exploration Corporation Limited (MECL, a Government of India enterprise). Drilling has been collared at surface and accesses mineralisation from approximately the 18 level and below. The results of the program are yet to be released by HCL. The Surda deposit remains open at depth and along strike to the north. Confidence in the resources at Surda remains strong as demonstrated by the Surda Expansion Project involving shaft sinking to the 18 Level. Currently the mine is at 12 level, approximately 450m below the surface. The extent of the Surda workings and Expansion Project are shown in the long section on the following page.

This is a world class achievement in safety and is a credit to all IRL’s training programs and instructors. Another initiative is the implementation of an apprentice training program. The program will involve giving bright young people with the necessary aptitude a chance to commence work with IRL under an apprenticeship scheme; they will learn new skills that will benefit themselves and the Company. In December 2013 IRL in coordination with Hindustan Copper Limited conducted an executive development programme at the Surda training centre. The topic was, ‘Managing Discipline in the Workplace’. Senior management teams from both IRL and HCL attended the training. MD Arvind Misra; Executive Development Program Key Note Speaker Environment The plant site of the Mosabani Concentrator has to meet many monitored environmental compliances. The Environmental Department is the quiet achiever at IRL that diligently undertakes their business of sampling and creating awareness amongst staff. To date all environmental parameters are within statutory limits. Exploration Projects India in the late 1990’s changed its policies and encouraged direct foreign investment. This along with a range of other policy changes has allowed opportunities to develop in India, and IRL is in a good position to take advantage of them. IRL has been applying for a number of tenements to pursue exploration activities in India for base metals, gold, iron ore, diamonds and coal. IRL’s ambition is to explore, develop and operate its own mine in India. IRL has entered into a joint venture arrangement for its diamond projects. IRL undertakes consulting work for other companies both in mining and exploration and uses its expertise from both India and Australia. Aravalli (Base Metals) The Aravalli project is made up of three components that were generated from the Company’s exploration of Reconnaissance Permit RP1- 2004: Aravalli lead-zinc project now awaiting grant of Mining License (ML). IRL’s wholly owned subsidiary Crown Mining Pvt Ltd (Crown or CMPL) has the preferential right to be granted the ML. The Sathuddia Prospecting License (PL) application located within RP1-2004. The newly accepted but yet to be granted Hindoli RP. Crown has applied for the ML over the lead-zinc mineralisation located along the same mineralisation trend as the Vedanta PLC’s Sindesar-Khurd and Rajpura-Dariba Mines. Figure A: Aravalli Project
  • 42. Page 9 INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014 Highlights: Aravalli (ML 87/08) Lobbying efforts for the grant of the Mining Licence (ML 87/08) for the Aravalli project continued throughout the year, including a detailed representation to the Indian Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP). The DIPP has agreed to support the Aravalli project before the Project Management Group, and the project has since been successfully registered. IRL’s mining lease contains significant base metals mineralisation (see Exploration Target discussion below). IRL has also entered into discussions with Hindustan Zinc Limited (HZL) regarding the remaining overlapping licence applications. CMPL submitted a Mandamus writ in November 2013 in the Jodhpur High Court, seeking the court to direct the State Government, of Rajasthan to dispose of the notice/representation dated 23 October 2013 to consider the preferential right of CMPL to be granted the Aravalli ML under section 11(1) of MMDR Act, 1957. The Jodhpur High Court vide Order has directed the State Government to consider the representation within one month from the date of service of the certified copy, of the order by CMPL. This was delivered on 24 December 2013 and received by the State Government on 1 January 2014, leaving them until the end of January to respond to the order of the High Court. At this stage IRL has not further intensified the legal follow up because helpful responses are being received from the Rajasthan State Government. Instead, IRL has increased lobbying at higher levels of the Indian Government bureaucracy. The Rajasthan Department of Mines has submitted a report defining the nature of overlapping claims of mining lease applications submitted by Hindustan Zinc Limited and Terramine Developers Private Limited over prospective areas covering the Aravalli project claimed by IRL subsidiary, CMPL. The report is in accordance with CMPL’s request for the Department to bring up to date Aravalli’s prospecting and title data. The status report for ML 87/08 from the Department of Mining and Geology (DMG) has been submitted to the State Government which states that a 667 hectare area at present is available in favour of IRL subsidiary, Crown Mining. Two overlapping PL applications of HZL are under a cancellation process which is pending with the State Government. Once complete a total of 1,500 hectares are expected to be available in CMPL’s favour. CMPL is seeking 2,500 hectares in total. ‘Invest India’ (the national investment promotion and facilitation agency for foreign investors in India) has acknowledged all IRL issues in regard to the Aravalli base metals project. In this process, letters of request for a favourable response have been sent to the Principal Secretary (Mines) of Rajasthan and all the concerned State officials in favour of IRL enquiring about the progress made by the State Government in the Aravalli project mining licence and prospecting licence applications. Aravalli Project Resource Statement The Company’s Aravalli Project in Rajasthan has reported the existence of substantial lead-zinc mineralisation on its Mining Lease application, for which the Company has provided a historic (foreign) resource estimate and the Company’s own exploration target. The Mining Lease application has not yet been granted, so no further update on these estimates has been possible; an upgrade to JORC compliance awaits the grant of the mining lease and subsequent drilling by IRL. Foreign Resource Estimate – Geological Survey of India As documented in the Company’s ASX announcement of 23 July, 2014, the Geological Survey of India (GSI) estimated 165.6 million tonnes of mineralisation at 2.3% Zn, 0.7% Pb at a minimum of a 2% Pb + Zn cut off, which lie in areas covered by the Company’s Mining Lease application. The Company is not in possession of any new information or data relating to the historical estimate that materially impacts on the reliability of the estimate or the Company’s ability to verify the historical estimate in accordance with the JORC Code. The supporting information provided in the initial market announcement referred to continues to apply and has not materially changed. This Foreign Resource Estimate is not reported in accordance with the JORC code and it is uncertain that following evaluation and/or further exploration the resource will be able to be reported in accordance with the JORC Code. A competent person has not done sufficient work to classify these historic, foreign estimates in accordance with the JORC code. The Foreign Estimates are sourced from exploration reports by the GSI dated from 1983 to
  • 43. Page 10 INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014 1993 on several “blocks” in the area: principally Sindesar Kalan (Bapna et al 1983), Mokanpura North (Samadder et al 1984) and North Sindesar Ridge (Yadav et al 1993). The Foreign Estimates were generated from exploration work, mainly diamond drilling, undertaken by the GSI. The Foreign estimates were repeated in Table 33 of the GSI Miscellaneous Publication no. 30 “Geology and Mineral Resources of Rajasthan" dated 2001. It is the opinion of IRL that the Foreign Estimates quoted are highly relevant to the value of the Aravalli Project as they provide an estimation as to the quantum of base metal mineralisation present in the Mining Lease (ML) application area. Having examined the protocols and criteria observed in the estimation of the Foreign Estimate, it is in the opinion of Mr Eoin Rothery, who is a Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists and can be described as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (JORC, 2012), that the resources quoted are reliable as to the quantum of mineralisation and an accurate representation of the available data and studies for the Aravalli Project. In summary these criteria are: o Exploration was methodically carried out by the GSI to delineate a number of mineralised lodes within the Aravalli Project area extending north from the operating mine at Rajpura Dariba. o Base metal mineralisation estimates were compiled by GSI for 14 “blocks” extending north from Rajpura Dariba up till 1993 and GSI work in the area is continuing to the present day. o Base metal mineralisation estimates were produced by the GSI from an assay data-set compiled from surface diamond drilling; o GSI Sampling methodology is well documented; o GSI quality control of the assays is documented and appears diligent; o The estimate methodology for each lode is compiled by GSI using a polygonal estimation technique; o The average bulk density used by GSI was 2.5t/m3 for the generally fresh, garnet graphitic schist host rock which appears reasonable. Materiality o IRL considers the Foreign Estimate is material as IRL has applied for a Mining Lease over the area through its subsidiary Crown Mining Pvt Ltd and the grade and tonnage of the Foreign Estimates imply that there is potential for the economic extraction and treatment of this base metal-bearing material. o IRL intends to complete a program of drilling to confirm the Foreign Estimate. These additional exploration programs will be combined with the historical information to seek to generate a base metal Mineral Resource which will be in compliance with the reporting guidelines of the JORC code. o IRL considers that the Foreign Estimate from the GSI is estimated under criteria comparable to the Inferred Mineral Resource category of the JORC code, although the terminology used by GSI is “Proved and Possible Ore Reserves”. The difference comes down to geological continuity and drill hole spacing which at around an average of 200m is considered too wide to define Reserves. o There has been no relevant resource estimate update since the Company’s announcement of 23 July, 2014. o IRL intends to conduct progressive exploration with the intention of bringing base metal deposits at the Aravalli Project into compliance with the JORC code within the first year of exploration after grant of the Mining Lease. IRL has begun the process of transferring historical information into digital format, obtaining topographic surveys and has conducted initial limited drilling at a standard suitable for generating a resource estimate in compliance with the reporting of Mineral Resources as defined by the JORC Code. o In IRL’s considered opinion this report is consistent with the guidance contained in the ASX Listing Rules, Chapter 5 and the ASX Listing Rules Guidance Note no. 31. o The information in this report that relates to Exploration Results or Mineral Resources is based on information compiled by Mr Eoin Rothery, who is a member of the Australian Institute Geoscientists. Mr Rothery has sufficient experience relevant to the style of mineralisation and types of deposits under consideration and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (JORC, 2012). Mr Rothery accepts responsibility for the accuracy of the information disclosed relating to the requirements for historical and foreign
  • 44. Page 11 INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014 reporting as detailed in ASX Company Listing Rules, Chapter 5 and the ASX Listing Rules Guidance Note no. 31 Exploration Target IRL has previously reported an exploration target at the Aravalli Project in the range of 95-135 million tonnes at between 2.2 to 4.5% zinc and 0.7 to 1.8% lead (“Quarterly activities and cash flow report” 31 July, 2008) and in the announcement dated 23 July 2014. This exploration target should not be mistaken for an estimate of Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves. The potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration as yet to define a Mineral Resource, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource. Further drilling will be required to establish JORC standard estimates of Resources. The figures are based on the above historic resource estimate by the Geological Survey of India (GSI) and subsequent drilling and modeling by IRL. The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the original market announcement. The Company confirms that the form and context in which the Competent Person’s findings are presented have not been materially modified from the original market announcement. The deposit is of a SEDEX style similar to Mount Isa in Australia. There is potential to upgrade the target substantially in both tonnes and grade by further drilling and higher grade zones can be identified within it. IRL set out to validate and extend the mineralisation in the GSI estimate above for the blocks in IRL’s ML application area with its own drilling. However in doing so IRL was restricted by Indian Mining Legislation in the number of holes it could drill under its Reconnaissance Permit and further drilling is needed which will take place once the Mining Lease is granted. A total of six deep diamond drill holes for a total of 3,349m were drilled. Using the GSI and IRL drilling as well as other information on the geology of the area IRL wireframed and 3D modelled the zones. The model was interrogated to come up with the exploration target given above. Further drilling to target high grade zones and upgrade the exploration target to a JORC estimate is planned on grant of the Mining Lease. Drilling at IRLs Aravalli Project. The IRL lease boundary shown is the original reconnaissance project. The red “zone of mineralisation” is an interpretation, based on a horizontal projection of drill results from GSI and IRL drilling. The grey areas are mining leases of Vedanta Resources’ subsidiary Hindustan Zinc Limited excised from within IRL’s RP. The information in this report that relates to Exploration Targets, Exploration Results, Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves is based on information compiled by Eoin Rothery, a Competent Person who is a Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists. Eoin Rothery is employed by India Resources Ltd on a consultancy basis and is an employee of Thomson Resources Ltd. Eoin Rothery has sufficient experience that is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity being undertaken to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the ‘Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves’. Eoin Rothery consents to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears Sathuddia (Base Metals) The Sathuddia base metals project falls within the area of the Aravalli RP1/2004. Following positive exploration results on RP1/2004 a Prospecting Licence application was made. From Crown’s previously reported drill results the area produced significant copper grades with the best intercept being 9m at 1.7% copper. The Sathuddia PL application area is significant because drilling is limited and centred on old workings and there is potential to expand the known copper mineralization at depth and along strike. The State Government of Rajasthan has not accepted the plea of CMPL and vide Order dated 11/6/2014 stating that according to Sec 11(1)(D) of MMRD Act 1957, PL application 56/2010 has been cancelled. CMPL has decided to challenge this Order in the Revision Court of Ministry of Mines (New Delhi).
  • 45. Page 12 INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014 Hindoli (Base Metals) The Hindoli reconnaissance permit (RP) application area is located to the northeast of the Aravalli Project. The approval of the Government of Rajasthan is pending. Crown is in the process of executing the RP license application. After negotiations with the Government of Rajasthan the area of the RP was reduced from that which was reported in the previous year to 677 km2 this was done to expedite the execution of the RP application. The Hindoli RP is located between large Anglo American, HZL and ACC Rio Tinto RPs. The Hindoli RP has excellent structural settings, prospective lithological units and numerous recorded instances of surface mineralisation, primarily copper, lead, zinc, silver and gold. IRL believe that this area has the potential to be a substantial project for the company. Badiya (Copper) The Badiya Mining Lease application is along the same trend as the Surda copper mine within the highly prospective ground of the Singhbhum shear Zone. Badiya is located 3km to the south of the now closed mine of Mosabani that is the current site of IRL’s processing facility, the Mosabani Concentrator. The Badiya copper mineralisation has been traced along strike for hundreds of metres and was once an operating mine that closed in the 1980’s due to the low copper prices. The major sulphide minerals are copper bearing chalcopyrite and also pyrite. The country rocks are metamorphosed sediments and metavolcanics of Pre-Cambrian age. The host rocks are quartz-chlorite-biotite schists and sometimes feldspathic schists the mineralised zone strikes indirection of 0200 and dips 30-350 (similar to Surda). It is IRL’s opinion that Badiya is very prospective for copper and has the potential after exploration for the discovery of significant mineralisation close to the Mosabani Concentrator. So far the ML application has progressed through the Director Geology of Jharkhand, who has requested more information concerning the previous work on the property and this is being followed up by IRL. The District forest office has completed their report and the application is under the scrutiny of the District Mining Office. Singhbhum (Copper) IRL develops and pursues mineral license applications for copper and other commodities particularly in close proximity to its flagship area, the Surda Mine and Mosabani concentrator, (where the ore is processed). These applications when granted will provide synergies with IRL’s primary business. Two recent Prospecting Licence applications have been the Sohada and Baharagora areas located between Surda and Mosabani and are prospective for copper. Diamonds (Bhandara, Dharwar) The IRL Bhandara and Dharwar diamond projects are in a joint venture between IRL and a private Indian diamond company, Vajra Diamond Mining Private Limited (Vajra). Bhandara (Orissa) The area of the Prospecting License PL 410 application is 10 km north of Nuapada diamondiferous kimberlites. IRL through its subsidiary, Amil Mining Private Limited, has the preferential right to be granted this PL. Dharwar (Andhra Pradesh) Renewal of prospecting licenses PL309 and 306 are pending with the State Government of Andhra Pradesh. After renewal, bulk sampling is planned for the Kimberlite Pipe, CC4 located on Prospecting License PL 309. On PL 306 Geophysical work is planned to locate potential targets for follow up sampling. Bonai (Iron ore) IRL has maintained its portfolio of 14 mineral license applications for iron ore in the states of Orissa and Jharkhand. IRL is also investigating the potential of forming joint ventures with iron ore mining and exploration companies in the Bonai region of India with the vision of developing iron ore prospects or acquiring leases. Business Development Several of IRL Projects have commenced operations: The Surda Operation contract extension has been formally signed by HCL, and IRL and is in operation. The Surda Expansion Project has commenced in earnest. The Rakha Copper Project is held up while HCL obtain the necessary environmental clearances from the Government. Surda Operations Extension IRL has been awarded the extension of the Surda Operation contract. Critical details are as follows:
  • 46. Page 13 INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014 The IRL Surda Operating contract is currently valid until March 2017 or the conclusion of the Surda II Expansion project. The contract is self sustaining and underpins the other contracts in the area. Surda Expansion Project Update on Surda Expansion Project IRL Copper Mining Pvt Ltd (ICMPL), a wholly owned subsidiary of India Resources Limited, has successfully started the Surda Expansion work of shaft sinking and allied mine development at the Surda mine. The work achieved in the 2013-2014 year is as follows: Hindustan Copper Limited (HCL) awarded the contract for the Stage II development of Surda Mine to Shriram EPC (SEPC) in November 2011. The contract involves development up to Level 18 from the current Level 10 and sinking of one new vertical shaft to a depth of 600m. SEPC have awarded the contract to ICMPL as Sub-Contractor on a back to back basis. Terms of the agreement are: This sub-contracting project with SEPC offers solid returns to IRL shareholders at minimal risk and without requiring significant cash outlays. All aspects of the funding of the project, including bank guarantees but excluding working capital, falls under the responsibility of SEPC. Surda Expansion project equipment Rakha Copper Project Hindustan Copper Limited is following up on environmental clearances for the Rakha Copper project. Once obtained the IRL – Kopex consortium will progress and finalise the contract agreement with HCL. The Project involves re-opening, operation and expansion of the Rakha Mine to produce at a rate of 1.5 million tonnes per year of copper ore. The Rakha Copper Mine is located 7km north of IRL’s current Surda operation, along strike and within the same geological structure of the Indian Copper Complex, Jharkhand. The Board of Directors of Hindustan Copper Limited, have approved the award of the contract to the IRL/KOPEX consortium. The scope of work includes dewatering, rehabilitation and installation of new winders for Rakha old shafts, sinking a 7.1m diameter shaft to a depth of 330m, excavation of a decline of length 2,359m, excavation of 10,200m of drives and crosscuts at various levels. The total period of the contract is five years. IRL CONSORTIUMS IRL/TATA IRL and Tata Projects Limited jointly qualified for the Concentrate Ore Treatment Tailings project at the Khetri Copper Complex (HCL). HCL proposed a pre-bid meeting in April 2014. Mineral Technologies, part of the Downer EDI Group, has agreed to join the team as a technology partner. IRL/KOPEX The IRL-Kopex consortium was formed to tender for underground projects. The consortium is evaluating opportunities and exploring and follow up is ongoing. IRL/ Briety Limited The IRL-Brierty consortium was formed to tender for open pit projects and have taken the following initiatives: Creating a database of open pit tenders.

Hindustan Copper Limited (HCL) and IRL Claims IRL has several claims against HCL. Developments over the 2014 year are as follows: 1. In September 2014 IRL received an unfavourable decision from the Supreme Court regarding HCL’s treatment of the contract price under the work order as if it was inclusive of taxes and levies. IRL is reviewing its options on this matter. No value is reported in IRL’s financial position for this claim. 2. An amount of $122,000 in interest payments relating to the Arbitration Award was received by $1.5M AUD as at September 2014), and the refund of two years liquidated damage payments (15M INR or $0.27M AUD) based on the Arbitrator’s decision, IRL in the June 2014 quarter. The Arbitration Award for material escalation (estimated at 85M INR or are expected to be considered by the HCL Board in October 2014. The limitation period has expired and HCL has not challenged the Award. 3. IRL has well progressed claims for fixed costs incurred during the plant closures in 2012/13 and November/December 2013 due to the consent to operate limits being reached. IRL expects to receive 20M INR ($0.35M AUD) for these. IRL has a number of other claims that it is yet to progress to an advanced stage with HCL. IRL’s claims in relation to the Arbitration Award and the fixed costs amount to 120M INR ($2.1M) are well advanced and IRL is confident these will be received. Nonetheless these claims are yet to be recorded in IRL’s financial statements. The information in this report that relates to exploration targets or exploration results is based on information compiled by Andrew Kohler, a Competent Person, who is a member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists. Mr Kohler is Group Technical Manager and is a full time employee of the Company. Mr Kohler has sufficient experience that is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity being undertaken to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves”. Mr Kohler consents to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears. This information was prepared and first disclosed under the JORC Code 2004. It has not been updated since to comply with the JORC Code 2012 on the basis that the information has not materially changed.
  • 48. Page 15 INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014 DIRECTORS' REPORT The Directors of India Resources Limited (Company) present their report together with the financial report of the Group (consisting of the Company and its controlled entities, referred to hereafter as the Group) for the financial year ended 30 June 2014. DIRECTORS The names of the Directors of the Company in office during the course of the financial year and up to the date of this report are as follows: Andrew Simpson (Non Executive Chairman) Arvind Misra (Managing Director) David Humann (Non Executive) Unless otherwise indicated, all Directors held their position as a director throughout the entire financial year and up to the date of this report. PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES The principal continuing activities of the Group during the financial year were copper mining and mineral exploration. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The net loss of the Group after provision for income tax for the year ended 30 June 2014 was $2,273,000 (2013: $785,000). Group EBITDA for the year was a loss of $1,163,000 (2013: profit of $933,000). The loss includes exploration expenditure written off of $929,000 in relation to the Bonai Iron Ore Project, and does not include $2M that the Company expects to receive from Hindustan Copper Limited (HCL) in relation to the Arbitration Award won in August 2013 and other well advanced claims made by the Company for fixed costs in relation to the plant closures in 2012/13 and 2013/14 due to the consent to operate limits imposed on HCL’s mining license. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS During the year, the Group continued its copper mining and other exploration and development activities in India. Copper in concentrate production at the Surda mine for the year was 3,428 tonnes, a similar result to last year’s 3,283. The mine actually produced the equivalent copper metal in concentrate of 3,850 tonnes, but due to the consent to operate production limits some of this ore material remained in stockpiles awaiting processing at the end of the financial year. During the year, production levels achieved were above the cash flow break-even level for the mine after capital expenditure requirements. The very good safety performance continued. On the development front, the final Conditions Precedent for the Group’s four year sub-contracting project with Shriram EPC Limited for the Surda Expansion Project were finalised. The IRL led consortium with Kopex was issued the Letter of Intent from HCL to award the Rakha copper project, but the contract signing has been delayed until HCL is awarded its renewal of the mining licence from the Jharkhand state Government. The Group has been granted an extension of its operations at Surda to the later of March 2017, or the completion of the Surda Expansion Project. The possible gross future income to be derived from carrying out these projects is estimated to be $132 million. During the year the Group continued to progress its long standing legal dispute with HCL as to whether the Surda Operations contract should be inclusive or exclusive of taxation, however subsequent to year end this case was decided against IRL. The Company continues to consider its options in relation to this case, which include another appeal to the Supreme Court of India. Other claims are progressing, with $0.55M paid in the March quarter 2014 and $0.12M paid in the June 2014 quarter which related to the Arbitration Award. The Arbitration Award for material escalation (estimated at 73M INR or $1.34M AUD), and the refund of two years liquidated damage payments (15M INR or $0.27M AUD) based on the Arbitrator’s decision, are expected to be
  • 49. Page 16 INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014 considered by the HCL Board in the near future. The Group expects to receive these payments as the limitation period has expired and HCL has not challenged the Award. Exploration activities during the year included further work on securing ground for various projects, especially the Aravalli base metals project. DIVIDENDS The Directors do not recommend the payment of a dividend (2013: Nil). LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS During the course of the next financial year the Group has continued its copper mining and expansion work at the Surda copper mine, however subsequent to year end both projects have been halted by a stop work instruction from HCL. This instruction impacts many mines in the State of Jharkhand, and whilst it cannot be known when this instruction will be lifted every effort is being made by many affected parties to enable mining to recommence. The Group will continue to seek to sign a contract for the Rakha copper project and commence this work. It will also continue its mineral exploration and development activities in India, and consider other resource projects in which the Group may participate. The Group is considering its options regarding its loss in the Supreme Court of India. It will continue to pursue several other large legal claims with HCL, and it remains confident that some of these will be resolved in its favour in the immediate future. In the opinion of the Directors there is no additional information available as at the date of this report on any likely developments which may materially affect the operations of the Group and the expected results of those operations in subsequent years. OPTIONS GRANTED OVER UNISSUED SHARES At reporting date, 35,013,066 (2013: 50,663,066) ordinary fully paid shares which are subject to options were unissued. The options are granted over fully paid shares and are exercisable: Number - at 2.5 cents each on or before 31 December 2014 25,013,066 - at 6.0 cents each on or before 30 November 2015 2,000,000 - at 10.0 cents each on or before 30 November 2015 2,000,000 - at 0.25 cents each on or before 31 December 2017 6,000,000 35,013,066 Details of options issued and exercised during the financial year are contained in Note 16 to the financial report. No person entitled to exercise the options has any right by virtue of the option to participate in any share issue of the Company or any other corporation. SIGNIFICANT CHANGES Significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group during the financial year were as follows: (a) In July 2013 IRL and its consortium partner, Kopex PBSz, were issued a Letter of Intent by Hindustan Copper Limited (HCL) to award them the contract for the Rakha Copper Project. (b) During the financial year an Arbitrator awarded three of our four claims against HCL in favour of IRL. At that time these claims were estimated to be worth $1.154M, noting that the claim for material escalation continues to grow each month.
  • 50. Page 17 INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014 (c) In March 2014 the Group received 30M INR ($0.55M AUD) from Hindustan Copper Limited being a part payment of the total amount awarded to IRL by an Arbitrator against HCL. EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO THE END OF THE FINANCIAL YEAR Significant events which have occurred subsequent to the end of the financial year were as follows: (a) In August 2014 the Company signed a placement agreement with Resources Capital Fund VI L.P. (RCF) to issue up to 200 million fully paid ordinary shares at $0.008 each to raise $1.6 million (before costs). The issue is to be completed in two tranches; the first tranche of 73,897,694 shares to raise $591,182 was subject to IRL entering into a legally binding term sheet with Noble Resources International Pty Ltd (Noble) for the issue of 90 million shares at a deemed issue price of $0.008 per share to extinguish the loan payable to Noble of $0.72M. The second tranche of up to 126,102,306 shares to raise up to an additional $1,008,818 is subject to shareholder approval and limited so that RCF’s voting power in the Company does not exceed 19.9% (b) In September 2014 the Company entered into a placement agreement with Noble for the issue of 90 million shares at a deemed issue price of $0.008 per Share to extinguish the secured loan of $0.72 million. In accordance with the Loan Repayment Agreement 72.8 million shares were issued as partial repayment of $582,400 from the loan. The balance of the loan of $137,600 will be satisfied by the issue of a further 17.2 million shares to be issued contemporaneously with the completion of the second tranche of the share placement with RCF which remains subject to the approval of shareholders. (c) In September 2014 the Company issued and allotted 73,897,694 fully paid ordinary shares to RCF at an issue price of $0.008 per share to raise $591,182 (before costs). (d) In September 2014 IRL received an instruction from Hindustan Copper Limited (HCL) to stop non- essential production and development operations at the Surda mine site. The instruction is understood to affect a number of mines, and is a result of the Jharkhand State Government (JSG) enforcing recent amendments to the mineral concession rules regarding mines that continue to await the renewal of their mining licence. Whilst it cannot be known how long the Stop Work Notice will remain in effect, it is noted that the closure of the mines is having a significant detrimental economic effect on the Jharkhand economy. The closures impact a number of organisations, including significantly large enterprises and Indian government enterprises. This is creating financial, political and social pressure on the JSG to bring about a solution to enable the mines to recommence production. In response to the Stop Work Notice, HCL has filed a Writ Petition (WP) requesting stay of the order issued by the JSG. As an affected party, the Company has filed an Interlocutory Application in support of HCL’s WP. Other large companies are filing similar WPs. HCL is also pursuing the renewal of the Surda mining lease with the JSG, and it is understood that the JSG cabinet is will be meeting to consider the issue. This cabinet has the power to allow the resumption of operations. During the stoppage the majority of IRL’s workforce has been placed on an official No Work No Pay notice. Approximately 25% of its workforce is engaged in care and maintenance work, including essential maintenance of the shaft systems and their machineries. IRL is also cleaning up the mine by removing saleable scrap from underground. These actions will make the mine safer and more efficient when normal operations resume. IRL has requested HCL to reimburse its costs for the period during which the Stop Work Notice remained effective, noting that HCL is responsible for the mining lease and that it pays care and maintenance to other mines in similar circumstances. (e) In September 2014 IRL lost its case in the Supreme Court of India regarding HCL’s treatment of the contract price under the Surda work order as if it was inclusive of taxes and levies.

Page 20 INDIA RESOURCES LIMITED 2014 remuneration and other terms of employment are reviewed by the remuneration committee having regard to performance, relevant comparative information and expert advice. The Company’s remuneration policy for executive Directors and senior management is designed to promote superior performance and long term commitment to the Company. Remuneration packages are set at levels that are intended to attract and retain executives capable of managing the Group’s operations. Executive Directors receive a base remuneration which is market related, together with performance based remuneration linked to the achievement of pre-determined milestones and targets. The Company’s remuneration policies are designed to align executives’ remuneration with shareholders’ interests and to retain appropriately qualified executive talent for the benefit of the Company. The main principles of the policy include: - reward reflects the competitive market in which the Group operates; - individual reward should be linked to performance criteria; and - executives should be rewarded for both financial and non-financial performance. The structure of remuneration packages for executive Directors and other senior executives comprises: - a fixed sum base salary payable monthly in cash; - short term incentives, through eligibility to participate in performance bonus plans and cash bonuses; - long term incentives through executive Directors being eligible to participate in the share option plan as approved by shareholders. Senior executives may also participate in the employee share option plan, with any option issues generally being made in accordance with thresholds set in plans approved by shareholders; and - other benefits, including participation in superannuation schemes. The proportion of fixed and variable remuneration is established for each executive by the remuneration committee. The objective of any short term incentives is to link the achievement of the Group’s operational targets with the remuneration received by executives charged with meeting those targets. The objective of long term incentives is to reward executives in a manner which aligns this element of their remuneration with the creation of shareholder wealth. The Group’s activities comprise the exploration, evaluation and development of mineral tenements aimed at identifying economic mineral deposits capable of development. The Group’s financial performance reflects the nature of these ongoing activities. The payment of bonuses, share options and other incentive payments are reviewed by the Board as part of the review of executive remuneration and a recommendation is put to the Board for approval. The Board can exercise its discretion in relation to approving incentives, bonuses and options. Any changes must be justified by reference to measurable performance criteria. The annual performance objectives are the means by which the Company links Company performance and remuneration policy. Having regard to the current stage of the Group’s development, the linking of remuneration policy to production performance milestones and progress rather than earnings is considered the most appropriate method of rewarding relevant senior executives. These principles are expected to continue to provide appropriate incentives for key management personnel. Non-executive Directors’ remuneration In accordance with current corporate governance practices, the structure for the remuneration of non- executive Directors and senior executives is separate and distinct. Shareholders approve the maximum fees payable to non-executive Directors, with the current approved limit being $500,000. The Board determines the actual payments to Directors. The Board approves any consultancy arrangements for non-executive Directors who provide services outside of and in addition to their duties as non-executive Directors. Non-executive Directors are entitled to statutory superannuation benefits. At this stage of the Company’s development, non-executive Directors may be entitled to participate in equity based remuneration schemes. Shareholders must approve the framework for any equity based compensation schemes and if a recommendation is made for a director to participate in an equity scheme, that participation must be
