2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES continued
h. Fixed assets and depreciation continued
Interest and other borrowing costs, such as discount fees on loans either directly or indirectly used in financing the construction of a qualifying asset, are capitalised up to the date when construction is complete. For borrowings directly
attributable to a qualifying asset, the amount to be capitalised is determined as the actual borrowing costs incurred during the year, less any income earned on the temporary investment of such borrowings.
For borrowings that are not directly attributable to a qualifying asset, the amount to be capitalised is determined by applying a capitalisation rate to the amount
expended on the qualifying asset. The capitalisation rate is the weighted -average of the borrowing costs applicable to the total borrowings outstanding during the period, excluding borrowings directly attributable to financing the qualifying asset
under construction.
i. Impairment of long-lived assets
At the balance sheet date, the Group undertakes a review to determine whether there is any indication of asset impairment. Fixed assets and other non-current assets are reviewed for impairment losses whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of an asset’s net selling price or value in
use. For the purpose of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows. Reversal of impairment is recorded as income in the period when the reversal occurs.
j. Deferred exploration and development expenditure
Exploration expenditure incurred is capitalised and carried forward, on an area of interest basis, provided one of the following conditions is met:
i such costs are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest or,
alternatively, by its sale; or ii
exploration activities in the area of interest have not yet reached the stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and acti ve and significant operations in or in relation to the
area of interest are continuing. Ultimate recoupment of deferred exploration expenditure is dependent upon successful development and commercial
exploitation or, alternatively, sale of the respective area. Deferred exploration expenditure on each area of interest is reviewed at the end of each accounting period. Exploration expenditure in respect of an area of interest which has been abandoned, or
for which a decision has been made by the Group’s directors against its commercial viability are written-off in the period in which the decision is made.
Mine development expenditure and incorporated costs in developing an area of interest prior to commencement of operations in the respective area, as long as they meet the criteria for deferral, are capitalised.
Deferred exploration and development expenditure represents the accumulated costs relating to general investigation, administration and licences, geology and geophysics expenditure and costs incurred to develop a mine before the
commencement of commercial productions. Deferred exploration and development expenditure is amortised on a straight-line basis from the date of commercial
production of the respective area of interest over the lesser of the l ife of the mine and the remaining term of the CCA.
k. Finance lease
Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the consolidated income statement on a straight-line
basis over the period of the lease. Leases of fixed assets where the Group has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance
leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the lease’s commencement at the lower of the fair value of the leased property and the present value of the minimum lease payments.
Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance charges so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the finance balance outstanding. The interest element of the finance cost is charged to the consolidated statement of income over
the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. Fixed assets acquired under finance leases are depreciated similarly to owned asset. If there is no reasonable certainty that
the Group will hold the ownership by the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the asset and the lease term.
