CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and year ended December 31, 2011 (Expressed in Canadian dollars) Management's Report
The consolidated financial statements, the notes thereto and other financial information contained in the Management's Discussion and Analysis have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and are the responsibility of the management of Delrand Resources Limited (formerly BRC DiamondCore Ltd., the 'Company'). The financial information presented elsewhere in the Management's Discussion and Analysis is consistent with the data that is contained in the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements, where necessary, include amounts which are based on the best estimates and judgments of management.
In order to discharge management's responsibility for the integrity of the financial statements, the Company maintains a system of internal controls. These controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the Company's assets are safeguarded, transactions are executed and recorded in accordance with management's authorization, proper records are maintained and relevant and reliable information is produced. These controls include maintaining quality standards in hiring and training of employees, policies and procedures manuals, a corporate code of conduct and ensuring that there is proper accountability for performance within appropriate and well-defined areas of responsibility. The system of internal controls is further supported by a compliance function, which is designed to ensure that management and the Company's employees comply with securities legislation and conflict of interest rules.
The Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing management's performance of its responsibilities for financial reporting and internal control. The Audit Committee, which is composed of non-executive directors, meets with management as well as the external auditors, as and when appropriate, to ensure that management is properly fulfilling its financial reporting responsibilities to the Board of Directors who approve the consolidated financial statements. The external auditors have full and unrestricted access to the Audit Committee to discuss the scope of their audits, the adequacy of the system of internal controls and review reporting issues.
The consolidated financial statements for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 have been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, Chartered Accountants and Licensed Public Accountants, in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards.

Page 2 of 30 Independent Auditor's Report To the Shareholders of Delrand Resources Limited
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Delrand Resources Limited (the 'Company'), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, consolidated statements of changes in equity and consolidated statements of cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and for the year ended December 31, 2011, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management's Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Delrand Resources Limited as at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and for the year ended December 31, 2011 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. Emphasis of Matter
Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 1 ' Corporate Information and Continuation of the Business in the consolidated financial statements which indicates that the Company incurred a net loss of $239,429 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and, as of that date, the Company's current liabilities exceeded current assets by $421,063 and the Company's deficit was $119,770,846. These conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1, indicate the existence of material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP Chartered Accountants Licensed Public Accountants Toronto, Canada September 28, 2012

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION AND CONTINUATION OF THE BUSINESS Corporate Information
The principal business of Delrand Resources Limited (the 'Company') is the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties in the Democratic Republic of the Congo ('DRC'). In June 2011, the Company effected a change in the name of the Company from BRC DiamondCore Ltd. to Delrand Resources Limited and a consolidation of the outstanding common shares of the Company on a two to one basis. As a result of the share consolidation, all of the issued and outstanding share amounts included in the 2011 financial statements were restated to reflect the share consolidation.
These consolidated financial statements as at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011 include the accounts of the Company and those of its wholly-owned subsidiaries incorporated in the DRC, Delrand Resources Congo SPRL (the subsidiary also effected a name change in 2012), and in South Africa, BRC Diamond South Africa (Proprietary) Limited.
The Company is a publicly traded company whose outstanding common shares are listed for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the JSE Limited in Johannesburg, South Africa. The head office of the Company is located at 1 First Canadian Place, 100 King St. West, Suite 707O, Toronto, Ontario, M5X 1E3, Canada. Continuation of the business
The Company incurred a net loss of $239,429 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 (year ended December 31, 2011 - $123,314) and as at June 30, 2012 had a working capital deficit of $421,063 and deficit of $119,770,846 (December 31, 2011 - $533,191 and $119,531,417, respectively).
The Company's ability to continue operations in the normal course of business is dependent on several factors, including its ability to secure additional funding. Management is exploring all available options to secure additional funding, including equity financing and strategic partnerships. In addition, the recoverability of the amount shown for exploration and evaluation assets is dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain financing to complete the development of the properties where necessary, or alternatively, upon the Company's ability to recover its incurred costs through a disposition of its interests, all of which are uncertain.
In the event the Company is unable to identify recoverable resources, receive the necessary permitting, or arrange appropriate financing, the carrying value of the Company's assets could be subject to material adjustment. Furthermore, certain market conditions may cast significant doubt upon the validity of the going concern assumption.
These consolidated financial statements do not include any additional adjustments to the recoverability and classification of certain recorded asset amounts, classification of certain liabilities and changes to the statements of comprehensive loss that might be necessary if the Company was unable to continue as a going concern. 2. BASIS OF PREPARATION a) Change of fiscal year-end
In June 2012, the Board of Directors of the Company passed a resolution changing the Company's financial year-end from December 31 to June 30. As a result of this change, these consolidated financial statements are for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and amounts presented for prior periods are not directly comparable as the comparative period is for the year ended December 31, 2011. The change was undertaken to better align the Company's financial planning and tax planning with its business planning.
Page 9 of 30 Delrand Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 (Expressed in Canadian dollars) b) Statement of compliance
These consolidated financial statements as at and for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 and for the year ended December 31, 2011 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS') as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB').
The accompanying financial information as at and for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 and for the year ended December 31, 2011 have been prepared in accordance with the IFRS standards and IFRS Interpretation Committee (IFRIC) interpretations issued and effective, or issued and early-adopted, at June 30, 2012. c) Basis of measurement
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for certain financial assets which are presented at fair value, as explained in the summary of significant accounting policies set out in Note 3. 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise indicated. The accounting policies have been applied consistently by all group entities and for all periods presented. a) Basis of Consolidation i. Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. This control is evidenced through owning more than 50% of the voting rights or currently exercisable potential voting rights of a company's share capital. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. Consolidation accounting is applied for all of the Company's subsidiaries.
ii. Transactions eliminated on consolidation
Inter-company balances, transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.
Unrealized losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealized gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment. iii. Associate
Where the Company has the power to significantly influence but not control the financial and operating policy decisions of another entity, the investment is accounted for as an associate. Associates are initially recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post-acquisition changes in the Company's share of the net assets of the associate, under the equity method of accounting. The Company's share of post-acquisition profits and losses is recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss, except that losses in excess of the Company's investment in the associate are not recognized unless there is a legal or constructive obligation to recognize such losses. If the associate subsequently reports profits, the Company's share of profits is recognized only after the Company's share of the profits equals the share of losses not recognized.
Page 10 of 30 Delrand Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 (Expressed in Canadian dollars)
Profits and losses arising on transactions between the Company and its associates are recognized only to the extent of unrelated investor's interests in the associate. The investor's share in the associate's profits and losses resulting from these transactions is eliminated against the carrying value of the associate.
Any premium paid for an associate above the fair value of the Company's share of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired is capitalized and included in the carrying amount of the Company's investment in an associate. Where there is objective evidence that the investment in an associate has been impaired, the carrying amount of the investment is tested for impairment in the same way as other non-financial assets. b) Use of Estimates and Judgments
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing these consolidated financial statements, the significant judgments and estimates have been made by management in applying the Company's accounting policies. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. Critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements are as follows: Estimates: i) Provisions and contingencies
The amount recognized as a provision, including legal, contractual, constructive and other exposures or obligations, is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the related liability, including any related interest charges, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. In addition, contingencies will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Therefore, assessment of contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgment and estimates of the outcome of future events. The Company assesses its liabilities and contingencies based upon the best information available, relevant tax laws and other appropriate requirements. ii) Impairment
Assets, including property, plant and equipment and exploration and evaluation, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may exceed their recoverable amounts. The assessment of the fair value often requires estimates and assumptions such as discount rates, exchange rates, commodity prices, rehabilitation and restoration costs, future capital requirements and future operating performance. Changes in such estimates could impact recoverable values of these assets. Estimates are reviewed regularly by management. iii) Share-based payment transactions
The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determining the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determining the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the stock option, volatility, dividend yield, forfeiture rate and making assumptions about them. The assumptions and models used for estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions are disclosed in Note 9. iv) Decommissioning and environmental provisions
The Company's operations are subject to environmental regulations in the DRC. Upon any establishment of commercial viability of a site, the Company will estimate the cost to restore the site following the completion of commercial
Page 11 of 30 Delrand Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 (Expressed in Canadian dollars)
activities and depletion of reserves. These future obligations are estimated by taking into consideration closure plans, known environmental impacts, and internal and external studies which estimate the activities and costs that will be carried out to meet the decommissioning and environmental obligations. Amounts recorded for decommissioning and environmental provisions are based on estimates of decommissioning and environmental costs which may not be incurred for several years or decades. The decommissioning and environmental cost estimates could change due to amendments in laws and regulations in the DRC. Additionally, actual estimated decommissioning and reclamation costs may differ from those projected as a result of an increase over time of actual remediation costs, a change in the timing for utilization of reserves and the potential for increasingly stringent environmental regulatory requirements. The Company is currently in the exploration stage and as such, there are no decommissioning and environmental reclamation costs as at June 30, 2012. Judgments: i) Exploration and evaluation expenditure
The application of the Company's accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure requires judgment in determining whether it is likely that future economic benefits will flow to the Company, which may be based on assumptions about future events or circumstances. Estimates and assumptions made may change if new information becomes available. If, after the expenditure is capitalized, information becomes available suggesting that the recovery of the expenditure is unlikely, the amount capitalized is written off in the statement of comprehensive loss during the period the new information becomes available. ii) Income taxes
The Company is subject to income taxes in various jurisdictions and subject to various rates and rules of taxation. Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations undertaken during the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Company recognizes liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on the Company's current understanding of the tax law. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the current and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.
In addition, the Company has not recognized deferred tax assets relating to tax losses carried forward. Future realization of the tax losses depends on the ability of the entity to satisfy certain tests at the time the losses are recouped, including current and future economic conditions, tax law, production rates and production costs. iii) Functional and presentation currency
Judgment is required to determine the functional currency of each entity. These judgments are continuously evaluated and are based on management's experience and knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances. iv) Impairment
Judgment is involved in assessing whether there is any indication that an asset or cash generating unit may be impaired. This assessment is made based on the analysis of, amongst other factors, changes in the market or business environment, events that have transpired that have impacted the asset or cash generating unit, and information from internal reporting. v) Going Concern
As described in the continuation of business note, management uses its judgment in determining whether the Company is able to continue as a going concern. Refer to Note 1.
Page 12 of 30 Delrand Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 (Expressed in Canadian dollars) c) Foreign Currency Translation Functional and presentation currency
These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars ('$'), which is the Company's functional and presentation currency. Foreign currency transactions
The functional currency for each of the Company's subsidiaries is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Transactions entered into by the Company's subsidiaries in a currency other than the currency of the primary economic environment in which they operate (their "functional currency") are recorded at the rates prevailing when the transactions occur except depreciation and amortization which are translated at the rates of exchange applicable to the related assets, with any gains or losses recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated at current rates of exchange with the resulting gain or losses recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Exchange differences arising on the retranslation of unsettled monetary assets and liabilities are recognized immediately in net loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated using the historical exchange rates. Non-monetary assets and liabilities measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined. d) Cash
Cash includes cash on hand and deposits held with financial institutions. e) Financial Assets
Financial assets are classified as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss ('FVTPL'), loans and receivables, held to maturity investments ('HTM'), or available for sale financial assets ('AFS'), as appropriate and, except in very limited circumstances, the classification is not changed subsequent to initial recognition. The classification is determined at initial recognition and depends on the nature and purpose of the financial asset. A financial asset is derecognized when contractual rights to the asset's cash flows expire or if substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset are transferred. i. Financial assets at FVTPL
Financial assets are classified as FVTPL when the financial asset is held for trading or it is designated upon initial recognition as at FVTPL. A financial asset is classified as held for trading if (1) it has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term; (2) it is part of an identified portfolio of financial instruments that the Company manages and has an actual pattern of short term profit taking; or (3) it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument. Financial assets at FVTPL are carried in the consolidated statement of financial position at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net loss. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred. ii. Loans and receivables
Trade receivables, loans and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as loans and receivables. The Company has classified cash as loans and receivables.
Loans and receivables are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to their acquisition or issue, and are subsequently carried at amortized cost less losses for impairment. The impairment loss of receivables is based on a review of all outstanding amounts at period end. Bad debts are written off during the period in which they are identified. Amortized cost is calculated taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and includes fees that are an integral part of the effective interest rate and transaction costs. Gains and
Page 13 of 30 Delrand Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 (Expressed in Canadian dollars)
losses are recognized in the statements of comprehensive loss when the loans and receivables are derecognized or impaired, as well as through the amortization process. iii. HTM investments
HTM financial instruments are initially measured at fair value. Subsequently, HTM financial assets are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, less any impairment losses. The Company did not classify any assets as HTM. iv. AFS financial assets
Non-derivative financial assets not included in the above categories are classified as AFS financial assets. They are carried at fair value with changes in fair value generally recognized in other comprehensive loss and accumulated in the AFS reserve. Impairment losses are recognized in net loss. Purchases and sales of AFS financial assets are recognized on settlement date with any change in fair value between trade date and settlement date being recognized in the AFS reserve. On sale, the cumulative gain or loss recognized in other comprehensive loss is reclassified from the AFS reserve to net loss. The Company has not designated any of its financial assets as AFS. v. Impairment of financial assets
The Company assesses at each reporting date whether a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired, if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset and that event has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.
For financial assets carried at amortized cost, the amount of the impairment is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the asset's original effective rate.
The carrying amount of all financial assets, excluding other receivables, is directly reduced by any impairment loss. The carrying amount of other receivables is reduced through the use of an allowance account. Associated allowances are written off when there is no realistic prospect of future recovery and all collateral has been realized or has been transferred to the Company. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in net loss. A provision for impairment is made in relation to other receivable, and an impairment loss is recognized in net loss when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all of the amounts due under the original terms. The carrying amount of the receivable is reduced through use of an allowance account.
With the exception of AFS equity instruments, if in a subsequent period the amount of impairment loss decreases and the decrease relates to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through net loss. On the date of impairment reversal, the carrying amount of the financial asset cannot exceed its amortized cost had the impairment not been recognized. Reversal for AFS equity instruments are recognized in other comprehensive loss. vi. Effective interest method
The effective interest method calculates the amortized cost of a financial instrument asset or liability and allocates interest income over the corresponding period. The effective interest rate is the rate that discounts estimated future cash receipts over the expected life of the financial asset or liability, or where appropriate, a shorter period. Income is recognized on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets classified as FVTPL.

Financial liabilities are classified as FVTPL, or other financial liabilities, as appropriate upon initial recognition. A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled or expired.
i. Financial liabilities classified as other financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value less directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to the initial recognition, other financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The Company's other financial liabilities include accounts payable, accrued liabilities and related party liability balances.
ii. Financial liabilities classified as FVTPL include financial liabilities held-for-trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as FVTPL. Financial liabilities are classified as held-for-trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. This category includes derivative financial instruments (including separated embedded derivatives) held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments. Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss. The Company does not have any financial liabilities classified as FVTPL. g) Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the reporting period and all additional common shares for the assumed exercise of stock options and warrants outstanding for the reporting period, if dilutive. The treasury stock method is used for the assumed proceeds upon the exercise of stock options and warrants that are used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the reporting period. As the Company is incurring losses, basic and diluted loss per share are the same because the exercise of outstanding stock options and share purchase warrants in the diluted loss per share calculation is anti-dilutive. Headline loss per share is an additional earnings number that is permitted by IAS 33, Earnings per share ('IAS 33'). The starting point is earnings as determined in IAS 33, excluding 'separately identifiable re-measurements' (as defined), net of related tax (both current and deferred) and related non-controlling interest, other than re-measurements specifically included in headline. A re- measurement is an amount recognized in profit or loss relating to any change (whether realized or unrealized) in the carrying amount of an asset or liability that arose after the initial recognition of such asset or liability. h) Property, Plant and Equipment ('PPE') i. Recognition and measurement
Items of PPE are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials, directed labor and any other cost directly attributable to bring the asset to the location and condition necessary to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the Company. Assets in the course of construction are capitalized in the capital construction in progress category and transferred to the appropriate category of PPE upon completion. When components of an asset have different useful lives, depreciation is calculated on each separate component.
Page 15 of 30 Delrand Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 (Expressed in Canadian dollars) ii. Subsequent costs
The cost of replacing part of an item of PPE is recognized in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Company and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized and included in net loss. If the carrying amount of the replaced component is not known, it is estimated based on the cost of the new component less estimated depreciation. The costs of the day'to'day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognized in net loss as incurred. iii. Depreciation
Depreciation is based on the cost of an asset less its residual value. Significant components of individual assets are assessed to determine whether a component has an estimated useful life that is different from that of the remainder of that asset, in which case that component is depreciated separately. Depreciation is recognized in net loss on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of each item or component of an item of PPE as follows:
- Furniture and office equipment two to seven years - Vehicles four years - Computer equipment three years - Exploration and mining assets two to four years
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed annually and adjusted, if appropriate. Depreciation commences when an asset is available for use. Changes in estimates are accounted for prospectively. iv. Gains and losses
Gains and losses on disposal of an item of PPE are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of the PPE, and are recognized net within other income in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss. v. Repairs and maintenance
Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to expense as incurred, except major inspections or overhauls that are performed at regular intervals over the useful life of an asset are capitalized as part of PPE. vi. De-recognition
An item of PPE is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the assets (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item) is included in net loss in the period the item is derecognized. i) Exploration and Evaluation Assets
All direct costs related to exploration and evaluation of mineral properties, net of incidental revenues, are capitalized under exploration and evaluation assets. Exploration and evaluation expenditures include such costs as acquisition of rights to explore; sampling, trenching and surveying costs; costs related to topography, geology, geochemistry and geophysical studies; drilling costs and costs in relation to technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource.
A regular review of each property is undertaken to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to exploration and evaluation of mineral properties. Should the carrying value of the expenditure not yet amortized exceed its estimated recoverable amount in any year, the excess is written off in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.
Page 16 of 30 Delrand Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 (Expressed in Canadian dollars)
The Company has not recognized impairment of exploration and evaluation assets during the six month period ended June 30, 2012 (year ended December 31, 2011 - nil). j) Impairment of Non-financial Assets
The Company's PPE is assessed for indication of impairment at each consolidated statements of financial position date. Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment when facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of an exploration and evaluation asset may exceed its recoverable amount. Internal factors, such as budgets and forecasts, as well as external factors, such as expected future prices, costs and other market factors are also monitored to determine if indications of impairment exist. If any indication of impairment exists, an estimate of the asset's recoverable amount is calculated. The recoverable amount is determined as the higher of the fair value less costs to sell for the asset and the asset's value in use. This is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or the Company's assets. If this is the case, the individual assets are grouped together into cash generating units ('CGU') for impairment purposes. Such CGUs represent the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash flows from other assets.
If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is impaired and an impairment loss is charged to the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss so as to reduce the carrying amount to its recoverable amount (i.e., the higher of fair value less cost to sell and value in use). Fair value less cost to sell is the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset or CGU in an arm's length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties, less the costs of disposal. Value in use is determined as the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from an asset or CGU. Estimated future cash flows are calculated using estimated future prices, mineral reserves and resources and operating and capital costs. All assumptions used are those that an independent market participant would consider appropriate. The estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. k) Income Taxes
Income tax expense consists of current and deferred tax expense. Income tax expense is recognized in profit and loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive loss or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognized in other comprehensive loss or directly in equity.
Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from, or paid, to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at future anticipated tax rates, which have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are only offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off the amounts, and the Company intends to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Deferred taxes are recognized on all qualifying temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred tax assets are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that the deductible temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognized for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority.
Page 17 of 30 Delrand Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 (Expressed in Canadian dollars) l) Share-Based Payments
Equity-settled share-based payments for directors, officers and employees are measured at fair value at the date of grant and recorded as compensation expense in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period based on the Company's estimate of shares that will eventually vest. The number of forfeitures likely to occur is estimated on grant date. Any consideration paid by the optionee on exercise of equity-settled share-based payments is credited to share capital. Shares are issued from treasury upon the exercise of equity-settled share-based instruments.
Compensation expense on stock options granted to non-employees is measured at the earlier of the completion of performance and the date the options are vested using the fair value method and is recorded as an expense in the same period as if the Company had paid cash for the goods or services received.
When the value of goods or services received in exchange for the share-based payment cannot be reliably estimated, the fair value is measured by use of a Black-Scholes valuation model. The expected life used in the model is adjusted, based on management's best estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions, and behavioural considerations. m) Provisions and Contingencies
Provisions are recognized when a legal or constructive obligation exists, as a result of past events, and it is probable that an outflow of resources that can be reliably estimated will be required to settle the obligation. Where the effect is material, the provision is discounted using an appropriate current market-based pre-tax discount rate. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognized as interest expense.
When a contingency substantiated by confirming events, can be reliably measured and is likely to result in an economic outflow, a liability is recognized as the best estimate required to settle the obligation. A contingent liability is disclosed where the existence of an obligation will only be confirmed by future events, or where the amount of a present obligation cannot be measured reliably. Contingent assets are only disclosed when the inflow of economic benefits is probable. When the economic benefit becomes virtually certain, the asset is no longer contingent and is recognized in the consolidated financial statements. n) Related Party Transactions
Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence, related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. Related party transactions that are in the normal course of business and have commercial substance are measured at the exchange amount.
o) Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective
The Company has reviewed recently issued and revised accounting pronouncements that have been issued but are not yet effective and determined that the following may have an impact on the Company:
IFRS 9, Financial instruments ('IFRS 9') was issued by the IASB on November 12, 2009 and will replace IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement ('IAS 39'). IFRS 9 replaces the multiple rules in IAS 39 with a single approach to determine whether a financial asset is measured at amortized cost or fair value and a new mixed measurement model for debt instruments having only two categories: amortized cost and fair value. The approach in IFRS 9 is based on how an entity manages its financial instruments in the context of its business model and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets. The new standard also requires a single impairment method to be used, replacing
Page 18 of 30 Delrand Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 (Expressed in Canadian dollars)
the multiple impairment methods in IAS 39. IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of IFRS 9 on its consolidated financial statements.
IFRS 10, Consolidated Financial Statements ('IFRS 10') establishes principles for the presentation and preparation of consolidated financial statements when an entity controls one or more other entities. IFRS 10 supersedes IAS 27 'Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements' and SIC-12 'Consolidated ' Special Purpose Entities' and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements ('IFRS 11') establishes principles for financial reporting by parties to a joint arrangement. IFRS 11 supersedes the current IAS 31 'Interests in Joint Ventures' and SIC-13 'Jointly Controlled Entities ' Non-Monetary Contributions by Venturers' and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
IFRS 12, Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities ('IFRS 12') applies to entities that have an interest in a subsidiary, a joint arrangement, an associate or an unconsolidated structured entity. IFRS 12 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurements ('IFRS 13') defines fair value, sets out in a single IFRS framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. IFRS 13 applies to IFRSs that require or permit fair value measurements or disclosures about fair value measurements (and measurements, such as fair value less costs to sell, based on fair value or disclosures about those measurements), except in specified circumstances. IFRS 13 is to be applied for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
An amendment to IAS 1, Presentation of financial statements was issued by the IASB in June 2011. The amendment requires separate presentation for items of other comprehensive income that would be reclassified to net loss in the future, such as foreign currency differences on disposal of a foreign operation, if certain conditions are met from those that would never be reclassified to net loss. The effective date is July 1, 2012 and earlier adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
IAS 19, Employee Benefits ('IAS 19') was re-issued by the IASB in June 2011. IAS continues to prescribe the accounting for employee benefits, but amendments make the OCI presentation changes in respect of pensions (and similar items) only, but all other long term benefits are required to be measured in the same way even though changes in the recognised amount are fully reflected in net loss. Also changed in IAS 19 is the treatment for termination benefits, specifically the point in time when an entity would recognise a liability for termination benefits. The amendments to IAS 19 are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
IAS 27, Separate financial statements ('IAS 27') was re-issued by the IASB in May 2011 to only prescribe the accounting and disclosure requirements for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates when an entity prepares separate financial statements. The consolidation guidance will now be included in IFRS 10. The amendments to IAS 27 are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
IAS 28, Investments in associates and joint ventures ('IAS 28') was re-issued by the IASB in May 2011. IAS 28 continues to prescribe the accounting for investments in associates, but is now the only source of guidance describing the application of the equity method. The amended IAS 28 will be applied by all entities that have an ownership interest with joint control of, or significant influence over, an investee. The amendments to IAS 28 are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the amendments on its consolidated financial statements.
IFRIC 20, Stripping costs in the production phase of a surface mine ('IFRIC 20') was issued by the IASB in October 2011 clarifying the requirements for accounting for stripping costs in the production phase of a surface mine. The
Page 19 of 30 Delrand Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 (Expressed in Canadian dollars)
interpretation is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the interpretation on its consolidated financial statements. 4. SUBSIDIARIES AND INVESTMENT IN ASSOCIATE
The table below lists the Company's subsidiaries as follows:
Proportion of Ownership Name of Subsidiary Place of Incorporation Principal Activity Interest Delrand Resources Congo SPRL Democratic Republic of the Congo 100% Mineral Exploration BRC Diamond South Africa South Africa 100% Dormant
The Company's investment in Rio Tinto Exploration DRC Oriental Limited ('DRC Oriental') which meets the definition of an associate of the Company, is summarized as follows:
As at June 30, As at December 2012 31,2011 Percentage of ownership interest 25.00% 25.00% Common shares held 250 250 Total investment $ - $ -
On January 26, 2010, the Company entered into an agreement (the 'Iron Ore Agreement') with Rio Tinto Minerals Development Limited ("Rio Tinto Minerals") for the exploration for iron ore in areas within the Orientale Province of the DRC. These areas are covered by exploration permits (the "Permits") which had been controlled by the Company. Under the Iron Ore Agreement, which is in the form of a shareholders' agreement, the Company owns 25% and Rio Tinto Minerals owns 75% of the capital stock of DRC Oriental, which owns a DRC registered company called Rio Tinto Exploration RDC Orientale SPRL. The registered company holds the Permits. The Company's investment in Holdco is accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011, Holdco was an inactive company which did not have any significant assets or liabilities and had no significant balances in the statement of comprehensive income. As such, there has been no change in the value of the investment since the date of acquisition.
Under the Iron Ore Agreement, all iron ore exploration up to and including the completion of any pre-feasibility study, as required to obtain an exploitation permit, will be funded by Rio Tinto Minerals. The Company will not suffer any dilution during this period, such that the Company's 25% interest in the properties will be maintained during this period. The exploration will be carried out by Rio Tinto Minerals or one of its affiliates as the operator. After the completion of the pre- feasibility study, funding for the project is to be provided by Rio Tinto Minerals and the Company based on their proportionate respective interests in the said holding company.

The following table summarizes the Company's tangible exploration and evaluation expenditures with respect to its properties in the DRC:
Tshikapa Northern DRC Notes Total Project Project Cost
Balance as at December 31, 2010 $ 3,020,092 $ 2,052,730 $5,072,822 Additions 19,762 26,683 46,445 Impairment - - - Balance as at December 31, 2011 3,039,854 2,079,413 5,119,267 Additions 45,727 (1,526) 44,201 Balance as at June 30, 2012 3,085,581 2,077,887 5,163,468
There are $2,219 of intangible exploration and evaluation expenditures as at June 30, 2012 (December 31, 2011: $2,219). There have not been any additions or disposals to intangible assets since January 1, 2010. a. Tshikapa Project
The Tshikapa project is located in the south-western part of the Kasai Occidental province of the DRC near the town of Tshikapa. The Tshikapa project is located within the so-called Tshikapa triangle, bordering the Kasai River in the east, the Loange River in the west and the Angolan border in the south. The properties also lie within the broader kimberlite emplacement corridor which extends from known kimberlite pipes located in Angola. The Tshikapa diamond field has been extensively mined by alluvial diamond companies and small-scale miners, and it is estimated that it has produced over 100 million carats of diamonds since 1912. The Company has focused its attention on the Tshikapa triangle through nine exploration permits covering an area of 1,429 km'. One of these permits is held by the Company's wholly-owned DRC subsidiary and the other eight permits are controlled through option agreements with the permit holders. Six of the option agreement permits relate to Acacia SPRL, which has advised the Company of its wish to modify the option agreement. The remaining two option agreement permits relate to Caspian Oil & Gas. b. Northern DRC Project
The Company's northern DRC diamond project is located in Orientale Province of the DRC and consists of 24 exploration permits, two of which are held by the Company directly through its DRC subsidiary and the balance of which are held through an option agreement with the holder of the permits. Rio Tinto Mining and Exploration Limited ('Rio Tinto') is also party to this agreement. Under this agreement, funding for the exploration of the areas covered by the permits is provided by Rio Tinto. Funds received from Rio Tinto under this agreement are deducted from exploration and evaluation expenditures in the Company's statement of financial position. Assuming ongoing satisfactory exploration results, the Company will acquire a 30% interest in the said permits subject to certain conditions. The 22 exploration permits under option cover an area of 4,155 km'. The two additional exploration permits held by the Company's DRC subsidiary cover an area of 749 km' directly north of the optioned ground.
c. In April 2011, the Company sold the containerized bulk sampling plant that had been constructed for the alluvial deposits on the Kwango River in southern DRC. The Kwango project had previously been abandoned by the Company and the related licences relinquished when it was concluded that the project would not be economically viable. The gross proceeds from the sale of the plant were $550,977 (US$575,000) and were recorded as a gain on disposal of property, plant and equipment in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss.
Page 21 of 30 Delrand Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 (Expressed in Canadian dollars) 6. ACCOUNTS PAYABLE AND ACCRUED LIABILITIES
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities are mainly comprised of amounts outstanding for purchases relating to exploration activities and amounts payable for professional services. The credit period for purchases typically range from 30 to 90 days. 7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS a) Key Management Remuneration
The Company's related parties include key management. Key management includes executive directors and non-executive directors. The remuneration of the key management of the Company as defined above, during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and for the year ended December 31, 2011 was as follows:

As at June 30, 2012, an amount of $11,326 (December 31, 2011: $11,313) was owed to Banro Corporation ('Banro'). Banro owns 17,716,994 common shares of the Company, representing a 35.6% interest in the Company.
During the six month period ended June 30, 2012 the Company issued 3,030,302 common shares upon the exercise of 3,030,302 warrants of the Company at a price of $0.132 per share for proceeds of $400,000. The two individuals who exercised the warrants are directors of the Company (see Note 8a).
All amounts due to related parties are unsecured, non-interest bearing and due on demand. All transactions are in the normal course of operations and are measured at the exchange value. 8. SHARE CAPITAL a) Authorized
The Company's authorized share capital consists of an unlimited number of common shares with no par value.
The holders of the common shares are entitled to receive notice of and to attend all meetings of the shareholders of the Company and shall have one vote for each common share held at all meetings of the shareholders of the Company. The holders of the common shares are entitled to (a) receive any dividends as and when declared by the board of directors, out of the assets of the Company properly applicable to the payment of dividends, in such amount and in such form as the board of directors may from time to time determine, and (b) receive the remaining property of the Company in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company.
During the six months ended June 30, 2012 the Company issued 3,030,302 common shares of the Company upon the exercise of 3,030,302 warrants of the Company at a price of $0.132 per share for proceeds of $400,000. The two individuals who exercised the warrants are directors of the Company.

As at June 30, 2012, the Company had outstanding warrants to purchase 11,969,698 (December 31, 2011: 15,000,000) common shares of the Company. Of the 11,969,698 warrants outstanding, 6,969,698 are exercisable at a price of $0.132 per share until November 2013 and the remaining 5,000,000 are exercisable at a price of $0.22 per share until May 2014. c) Loss per share and headline loss per share
Loss per share was calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for six month period ended June 30, 2012, amounting to 49,720,991 (year ended December 31, 2011: 47,855,026) common shares. Diluted loss per share was calculated using the treasury stock method. Total stock options for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 of 911,771 (year ended December 31 2011: 1,061,771) and warrants of 11,969,698 (year ended December 31, 2011: 15,000,000) were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Items that are adjusted in the reconciliation between loss per share and headline loss per share to arrive at the Company's headline loss per share include impairment of property, plant, and equipment and losses on disposal of assets, however they have no effect on the Company's headline loss per share.

In August 2011, the Company's board of directors established a new stock option plan for the Company (the "New Plan"). In establishing the New Plan, the Board of Directors also provided that no additional stock options may be granted under the Company's other stock option plan (the "Old Plan") and terminated the Old Plan effective upon the exercise, expiry, termination or cancellation of all of the currently outstanding stock options that were granted under the Old Plan.
Under the New Plan, non-transferable options to purchase common shares of the Company may be granted by the Company's Board of Directors to any director, officer, employee or consultant of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company. The New Plan contains provisions providing that the term of an option may not be longer than ten years and
Page 23 of 30 Delrand Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 (Expressed in Canadian dollars)
the exercise price of an option shall not be lower than the last closing price of the Company's shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange prior to the date the stock option is granted. Unless the Board of Directors makes a specific determination otherwise, stock options granted under the New Plan and all rights to purchase Company shares pursuant thereto shall expire and terminate immediately upon the optionee who holds such stock options ceasing to be at least one of a director, officer or employee of or consultant to the Company or a subsidiary of the Company, as the case may be. Stock options granted pursuant to the New Plan vest as follows: 75% of the stock options vest on the 12 month anniversary of their grant date and the remaining 25% of such stock options vest on the 18 month anniversary of their grant date. The total number of common shares of the Company issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding stock options granted under the New Plan shall not at any time exceed 12% of the total number of outstanding common shares of the Company, from time to time.
The Company's outstanding stock options have been adjusted to reflect the two to one share consolidation that was implemented by the Company in June 2011. As at June 30, 2012, the Company had outstanding under the Old Plan stock options to acquire 890,000 (December 31, 2011 ' 1,040,000) common shares of the Company at a weighted-average exercise price of $3.51 (December 31, 2011 - $4.59) per share. There are currently no stock options outstanding under the New Plan.
The following tables summarize information about stock options: For the six-month period ended June 30, 2012:

The fair value at grant date is determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option. The contractual life of all options on the date of grant is 5 years.

The expected price volatility is based on the historic volatility (based on the remaining life of the options), adjusted for any expected changes to future volatility due to publicly available information.
During the six month period ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss as an expense $nil (year ended December 31, 2011 $nil) representing the fair value at the date of grant of stock options previously granted to employees, directors and officers under the Company's stock option plan. In addition, an amount of $nil for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 (year ended December 31, 2011: $nil) related to stock options issued to employees of the Company's subsidiary in the DRC was capitalized to exploration and evaluation assets. Replacement options
In connection with the acquisition by the Company of all of the outstanding shares of Diamond Core Resources Limited ('Diamond Core') on February 11, 2008, 617,710 (the 'Replacement Options') stock options were issued by the Company to employees of Diamond Core to substitute for their stock options in Diamond Core. Diamond Core was subsequently disposed of by the Company. As at June 30, 2012, there were 21,771 replacement options outstanding (December 31, 2011: 21,771). 10. SEGMENTED REPORTING

11. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
a) Fair value of financial assets and liabilities
The consolidated statements of financial position carrying amounts for cash, other assets, and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. Due to the use of subjective judgments and uncertainties in the determination of fair values these values should not be interpreted as being realizable in an immediate settlement of the financial instruments. Fair value hierarchy
The following provides a description of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable:
- Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
- Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
Page 25 of 30 Delrand Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 (Expressed in Canadian dollars)
- Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The fair values of financial assets and liabilities carried at amortized cost are approximated by their carrying values. Cash is ranked level 2 as it is based on similar loans in the market. b) Risk Management Policies
The Company is exposed to changes in commodity prices and foreign-exchange. The Company's Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company's risk management framework. Although the Company has the ability to address its price-related exposures through the use of options, futures and forward contacts, it does not generally enter into such arrangements. c) Foreign Currency Risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that a variation in exchange rates between the Canadian dollar and United States dollar or other foreign currencies will affect the Company's operations and financial results. A portion of the Company's transactions are denominated in United States dollars, Congolese francs and South African rand. The Company is also exposed to the impact of currency fluctuations on its monetary assets and liabilities. The Company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar. The majority of major expenditures are transacted in US dollars. The Company maintains the majority of its cash in Canadian dollars but it does hold balances in US dollars. Significant foreign exchange gains or losses are reflected as a separate component of the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.
The following table indicates the impact of foreign currency exchange risk on net working capital as at June 30, 2012. The table below also provides a sensitivity analysis of a 10 percent strengthening of the Canadian dollar against foreign currencies as identified which would have increased (decreased) the Company's net loss by the amounts shown in the table below. A 10 percent weakening of the Canadian dollar against the same foreign currencies would have had the equal but opposite effect as at June 30, 2012.

474,532 3,940 Impact of a 10% strengthening or weakening of the CDN $ on
net loss 47,453 394 d) Credit Risk
Financial instruments which are potentially subject to credit risk for the Company consist primarily of cash. Cash is maintained with several financial institutions of reputable credit in Canada, the DRC and South Africa and may be redeemed upon demand. It is therefore the Company's opinion that such credit risk is subject to normal industry risks and is considered minimal.
Page 26 of 30 Delrand Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 (Expressed in Canadian dollars) e) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company attempts to ensure that there is sufficient cash to meet its liabilities when they are due and manages this risk by regularly evaluating its liquid financial resources to fund current and long-term obligations and to meet its capital commitments in a cost-effective manner. The key to success in managing liquidity is the degree of certainty in the cash flow projections. If future cash flows are fairly uncertain, the liquidity risk increases. The Company's liquidity requirements are met through a variety of sources, including cash, existing credit facilities and equity capital markets. In light of market conditions, the Company initiated a series of measures to bring its spending in line with the projected cash flows from its operations and available project specific facilities in order to preserve its financial position and maintain its liquidity position. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $645,575 and amounts due to related parties of $254,119 are due within one year and represent all significant contractual commitments, obligations, and interest and principal repayments on financial liabilities. Please refer to Note 1, Continuation of Business. f) Mineral Property Risk
The Company's operations in the DRC are exposed to various levels of political risk and uncertainties, including political and economic instability, government regulations relating to exploration and mining, military repression and civil disorder, all or any of which may have a material adverse impact on the Company's activities or may result in impairment in or loss of part or all of the Company's assets. g) Market Risk
Market risk is the potential for financial loss from adverse changes in underlying market factors, including foreign- exchange rates, commodity prices, interest rates and stock based compensation costs. h) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the potential impact on any Company earnings due to changes in bank lending rates and short term deposit rates. The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk other than cash flow interest rate risk on its cash. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk. A fluctuation of interest rates of 1% would not affect significantly the fair value of cash. i) Title risk
Title to mineral properties involves certain inherent risks due to the difficulties of determining the validity of certain claims as well as the potential for problems arising from the frequently ambiguous conveyancing history characteristic of many mining properties. Although the Company has investigated title to all of its mineral properties for which it holds concessions or other mineral licenses, the Company cannot give any assurance that title to such properties will not be challenged or impugned and cannot be certain that it will have valid title to its mineral properties. The Company relies on title opinions by legal counsel who base such opinions on the laws of countries in which the Company operates. j) Country risk
The DRC is a developing country and as such, the Company's exploration projects in the DRC could be adversely affected by uncertain political or economic environments, war, civil or other disturbances, and a changing fiscal regime and by DRC's underdeveloped industrial and economic infrastructure.
The Company's operations in the DRC may be effected by economic pressures on the DRC. Any changes to regulations or shifts in political attitudes are beyond the control of the Company and may adversely affect its business. Operations may be affected in varying degrees by factors such as DRC government regulations with respect to foreign currency conversion, production, price controls, export controls, income taxes or reinvestment credits, expropriation of property, environmental legislation, land use, water use and mine safety.
There can be no assurance that policies towards foreign investment and profit repatriation will continue or that a change in economic conditions will not result in a change in the policies of the DRC government or the imposition of more stringent foreign investment restrictions. Such changes cannot be accurately predicted.
Page 27 of 30 Delrand Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 (Expressed in Canadian dollars) k) Capital Management
The Company manages its cash, common shares, warrants and stock options as capital. The Company's main objectives when managing its capital are:
- to maintain a flexible capital structure which optimizes the cost of capital at acceptable risk while providing an appropriate return to its shareholders;
- to maintain a sufficient capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business;
- to safeguard the Company's ability to obtain financing; and
- to maintain financial flexibility in order to have access to capital in the event of future acquisitions.
The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in accordance with the objectives stated above, as well as responds to changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets.
There were no significant changes to the Company's approach to capital management during the six months ended June 30, 2012.
Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
As at June 30, 2012 As at December 31, 2011
Cash $ 440,655 $ 88,068 Share capital $ 116,339,566 $ 115,939,566 Deficit $ (119,770,846) $ (119,531,417) Contributed surplus $ 8,159,644 $ 8,159,644 12. SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION

5
evaluation assets $ - $ 4,100 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is committed to the payment of surface fees and taxes. As at June 30, 2012, these fees and taxes are estimated to be $69,630 (US$ 66,000) compared to $127,981 (US$ 132,000) incurred as at December 31, 2011. The surface fees and taxes are required to be paid annually under the DRC Mining Code in order to keep exploration permits in good standing.
Six of the exploration permits comprising part of the Company's Tshikapa project in the DRC are held through an option agreement with Acacia SPRL. Acacia SPRL has advised the Company of its wish to modify the option agreement. The Company continues its discussions with Acacia SPRL and believes it can reach an agreement that is satisfactory for both parties.
Page 28 of 30 Delrand Resources Limited NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2012 (Expressed in Canadian dollars)
In addition to the above matters, the Company and its subsidiaries are also subject to routine legal proceedings and tax audits. The Company does not believe that the outcome of any of these matters, individually or in aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on its consolidated losses, cash flow or financial position. Labour disputes
The Company is involved in litigation with a former director and officer of the Company relating to a settlement agreement pertaining to his departure. The former director and officer is claiming that he is owed payment of 1.2 million South African rand plus interest, and the Company has instituted counterclaims against him. A trial date for this litigation, which is before the South Gauteng High Court in South Africa, has been set for May 2013. 14. INCOME TAXES
