About Kolar Gold Limited:
Kolar Gold is an Indian gold exploration and development
company, listed on the AIM market (Ticker: KGLD) that has an
experienced international board and strong local partners.
KGL has rights to explore and develop one prospecting licence
and 13 further licence applications in the Kolar Gold Belt, an 80
kilometre long Archaean Greenstone Belt, in Southern India. The
Kolar Gold Belt is one of the most prospective underdeveloped
Archaean Greenstone Belts in the world and is regarded by Mr Andrew
J Vigar of Mining Associates Limited, the Competent Person, as
comparable to the Archaean Greenstone Belts of South Africa, Canada
and Western Australia which have similar geology, structure and
style of mineralisation. This project area includes 32 known
mineralised prospects and covers 568 square kilometres in the
southern states of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. KGL
commenced exploration on the first Prospecting Licence in South
Kolar in February 2011.
KGL is also jointly pursuing, with the mine employee unions, the
acquisition and revival of the neighbouring historic Kolar Gold
Fields which has produced 25 million ounces of gold at 15.9 grams
per tonne over 120 years until closure in 2001.
Review of operations
Your Company has made good progress in the period establishing our
operations in India and mobilising two rigs for drilling targets in
the South Kolar block.
Steady progress is being made in the revival process of Bharat Gold
Mines Limited (BGML). We are awaiting the Supreme Court to direct that
the sale tender process should begin.
Kolar Gold continues to work closely with its two Indian partners,
SUN Mining and Geomysore India (Private) Limited ('GMSI'), to establish
Kolar Gold as a responsible leading player in the gold mining industry
in India.
Your company has made an encouraging start on the ground in India this
period.
Exploration Programme
Diamond drilling commenced in February 2011 in the South Kolar Licence
area and by December nearly 6000m of drilling had been completed on
several prospects. Drilling principally targeted known zones of mineralization
and extensions of auriferous lodes previously mined at the Chigargunta
mine in the south and the Bisanatham mine in the north.
Drilling at the Chigargunta NE deposit has validated historic drilling
results and provided valuable fresh geological data on the host rocks
and structural controls to mineralisation. Results included:
* KCN-02: 4.74m at 24.7g/t gold from 79.74m to 84.48m
* KCN-05: 0.50m at 160.2 g/t gold from 117.14m to
118.89m
* KCN-10: 1.00m at 12.1g/t gold from 45.65m to 46.65m
* KCN-14: 1.10m at 16.4g/t gold from 45.29m to 46.39m
* KCN-05: 3.65m at 4.6g/t gold from 20.54m to 24.19m
(HW lode)
* KCN-05: 2.60m at 6.0g/t gold from 134.04m to 136.64m
(FW lode)
The combined historic and current drilling results are being modeled
in preparation for the next campaign of drilling.
Scout diamond drilling, with six holes, was carried out on the Chigargunta
Eastern Lodes namely E2, E3 and E4 lodes. These holes have confirmed
the extension of the lodes mined in the historic Chigargunta mines.
Five of the six holes intersected encouraging gold values including:
* KCE 01 - 0.5m @ 4.90g/t from 41.55m & 1.0m @ 3.36g/t
from 43.55m
* KCE 02 - 11.5m @ 1.21g/t from 82.84m incl. 1.5m @
4.74g/t from 92.84m
* KCE 06 - 2.0m @ 3.04g/t from 14.3m and 3.0m @ 3.1g/t
from 28.3m
Confirmation drilling has also been carried out at the Mallapakonda
deposit which has a previous resource of 61,527 oz gold. This drilling
has provided a good understanding of the controls to mineralisation
at this priority target deposit. Modeling is been carried out to give
a detailed interpretation of potential ore shoots and their continuity
to depth. A resource update is also being computed.
Planning is underway to re-open one of the Mallapakonda adits to provide
suitable underground drilling platforms. Difficult terrain hinders
surface drilling at this deposit.
Drilling in this part of the South Kolar Licence area is in a forestry
area, and ongoing foresty approval is required to drill additional
surface holes in the area. An application for a 160 hole drill programme
has been submitted to the State Forestry Department for approval.
IP Survey
To assist identification of priority targets at South Kolar, we undertook
40 line km of detailed Induced Polarisation ('IP') Surveys. The IP
survey confirmed the continuity of auriferous structures previously
mined at the Chigargunta and Old Bisanatham mines. A number of significant
anomalies also exist along the north-south trend of the greenstone
belt indicating a number of good target areas for drilling.
An RC drill rig was deployed in November to investigate the anomalies
identified by the abovementioned IP surveys. This RC programme of 2,750m
was completed in February with 30 shallow holes. Results are being
interpreted to plan further follow up diamond and RC drilling going
forward.
Exploration Review
Over the last year, the company has generated a large database comprising
ground magnetics, IP surveys, mapping, RC and diamond drilling. An
exploration review is currently underway to combine and interpret all
these data sets. A further programme of detailed mapping is also being
undertaken with the valuable knowledge gained from the drilling and
in particular the controls to mineralisation within the different rock
units with an emphasis on structure and alteration characteristics.
This review will allow better targeting of drill holes to identify
zones most likely to host mineralisation.
Kolar Gold Projects
We continue to work closely with GMSI and SUN Mining to progress the
North and East Kolar tenement approvals which are in the final stages
with the Government. The Company has retained cash balances for the
acquisition of these rights. These license approvals remain with the
relevant mining department for approval and management are confident
they will be granted in due course. The process of granting of licences
has been slower than the Company planned.
BGML acquisition
The Company and advisors have made solid progress via dialogue with
the Government of India and recent agreement in the Supreme Court to
proceed with the sale and revival by tender process. We now await the
court order and the issue of the sale tender documents which have been
drafted by Ernst & Young.
Key financials
The Company had GBP9.6m in cash deposits at period end. The bulk of
these funds have been earmarked as consideration for the exercise of
the options over the remaining tenements (GBP4.7m) and undertaking
the Group's exploration activities (GBP3.2m) on these tenements during
2012.
The loss after tax for the period was GBP1,205,337, compared to GBP927,763
for the six months to 31 December 2010 and GBP3,256,290 for the year
to June 2011.
Going concern
Careful attention is being paid to the profile of expenditure at South
Kolar. An increase in exploration expenditure is anticipated when the
grant of the North and East Kolar tenements are approved by the Government.
The Group has operated within the cashflows it anticipated at the time
of the IPO in June 2011 and accordingly will need to raise finance
during 2012 if all options are exercised over the tenements and exploration
is to take place as planned. These matters are described in detail
in Note 4 to the financial statements. If such finance is not obtained
then, the Group will have sufficient funds to exercise its options
over the tenements but will need to slow down or defer its exploration
activities in order to have sufficient cash to see it through the next
12 months. However, we remain well funded for our planned 2012 activities
at this stage.
We have a number of activities and initiatives underway and we foresee
2012 will be a year of growth and expansion for the company.

Kolar Gold Limited
Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements
for the six months ended 31 December 2011
1 Reporting entity
Kolar Gold Limited (the 'Company') is a company incorporated
and registered in Guernsey. The Company's shares were admitted
to trading on AIM in London on 17 June 2011, following the successful
completion of an Initial Public Offering raising gross funds
of GBP12 million. The condensed consolidated interim financial
statements of the Company as at and for the six months ended
31 December 2011 comprises the Company and its subsidiaries (together
referred to as the "Group"). The Group primarily is involved
in and also acquiring, exploring and developing the rights to
mining assets in the Kolar Belt and the potential acquisition
of the mining assets of Bharat Gold Mines Limited ("BGML") from
the Government of India.
The consolidated annual financial report of the Group as at and
for the year ended 30 June 2011 is available upon request from
the Company's registered office at Frances House, Sir William
Place, St. Peter Port, Guernsey GY1 4HQ.
2 Statement of compliance
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
They do not include all of the information required for full
annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements of the Group as at
and for the year ended 30 June 2011.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were
approved by the Board of Directors on 30 March 2012.
3 Significant accounting policies
The accounting policies applied by the Group in these condensed
consolidated interim financial statements are the same as those
applied by the Group in its consolidated financial statements
as at and for the year ended 30 June 2011, except as set out
below.
The Company's functional and presentation currency is British
pounds (GBP) and the functional currencies for its subsidiaries
are GBP, Australian dollars and Indian Rupees respectively.
Assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than British
pounds are translated into British poundsat exchange rates prevailing
at the reporting date. Items of income and expense are translated
to British pounds at exchange rates prevailing at the dates of
transactions or where appropriate at average monthly foreign
exchange rates.
4 Going concern
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have
been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable
to Kolar Gold being a "going concern" which assumes the Group
will continue in operation for at least 12 months from the date
of these interim financial statements and will be able to realise
its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course
of operations.
As an explorer, the Group currently has no source of operating
cash inflows, other than interest income, and has incurred net
operating cash outflows for the six months ended 31 December
2011 of GBP1,582,839 (2010: GBP658,502). During this period,
the Company received net financing inflows of GBP46,238 (2010:
GBP3,225,686) and applied GBP420,857 (2010: nil) to mineral exploration
activities at the South Kolar PL area. At 31 December 2011 the
Group had cash balances of GBP9,645,300 (30 June 2011: GBP11,544,630)
and a surplus in net working capital (current assets less current
liabilities) of GBP9,190,711 (June 2011: GBP10,442,755).
4 Going concern (cont'd)
The Directors have prepared forecasts which include cash outflows
in respect of the Group's agreement with GMSI to exercise the
options on further mineral exploration rights adjacent to BGML
and subsequent exploration activities. These outlays will only
proceed if and when the mineral exploration rights have been
approved by the Government of India. In the event that the Government
of India approves all of the mineral exploration rights specified
in the agreement with GMSI and as set out in the IPO prospectus
in June 2011, the Group is committed to exercising its options
over the remaining tenements for consideration of approximately
GBP4.7m and has budgeted for additional exploration expenditure
of approximately GBP3.2m to December 2012. The bulk of the Group's
current cash reserves will be applied to these purposes.
In order for the Group to continue its exploration and development
programme beyond December 2012, at current planned levels, it
will need to raise additional finance and the Directors are
in the process of determining the likely timing and amount of
such a fund raising with their advisors.
If additional finance is not obtained during 2012, the Group
will have sufficient cash to exercise its options over the tenements,
but will need to slow down or defer its exploration activities
in order to have sufficient cash for the period to at least
March 2013, and to allow the Group more time to raise additional
funding.
There can be no assurance that the Group will be successful
in its efforts to arrange additional financing, if needed, on
terms satisfactory to the Group. However, the directors, having
taken advice and having reviewed the exploration results and
prospects for the Group, are confident that additional funding
will be received and, consequently, the directors consider that
the Group will have adequate resources to continue its operations
for at least 12 months from the date of these interim financial
statements. Notwithstanding the above, there can be no certainty
in this matter and the financial statements do not include any
adjustments that would be necessary should the going concern
basis not be appropriate.
5 Estimates
The preparation of interim financial statements requires management
to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the
application of accounting policies and the reported amounts
of assets, liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may
differ from these estimates.
In preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial
statements, the significant judgements made by management in
applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources
of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied
to the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year
ended 30 June 2011.
6 Capital commitments
In 2010 the Group entered into a contract to acquire the rights
to mining assets in the North Kolar, South Kolar and East Kolar
regions of India. The mining assets comprise mineral exploration
rights in these regions. The Group is committed to acquire the
rights when, and only when, they have been approved by the Government
of India.
As at balance date the total commitments to acquire these rights
totalled GBP4,716,981 (2010: GBP4,716,981).
