REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Cononish Gold and Silver Project
In order to facilitate financing under current market conditions, the Company, in conjunction with its consultants, have continued to examine and evaluate possible alternative configurations for the Cononish Gold and Silver Project with a view to optimising returns and attempting to reduce the initial capital expenditure and the overall funding requirement to bring the project to production.
The initial options considered to date have considered varied processing rates, strategic mining sequences and mining selectivity. Whilst these options remain under review, a number of other options relating to construction, commissioning and production build up periods, as well as plant configuration, are also being considered for further examination and evaluation before a preferred development option can be finalised.
An application to the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park Planning Authority to amend the permitted hours of operation of the processing plant from 16 hours per day to 24 hours per day (excluding Sundays and recognised Scottish public holidays) was recommended for approval on 24 January 2015 subject to the conclusion of the requisite legal agreements. These agreements have now been concluded.
As a variation to a condition of the existing consent, this approval also had the effect of extending the date by which development should commence to January 2018. The variation will facilitate efficient plant operations and possible capital expenditure reductions in respect of the processing plant.
The Company has also continued discussions with possible plant suppliers regarding the capital costs and financing of the possible smaller facility and is in negotiations relating to supplier financing for the mining equipment required with the aim of achieving further reductions in the initial capital expenditure.
On 22 January 2015 the Company announced a new Mineral Resource Estimate for the Cononish Gold Project, compiled by CSA Global (UK) Limited (see ASX release: Resource Estimate Update - 22/01/2015).
The Mineral Resource Estimate has been classified and is reported as Measured, Indicated and Inferred based on guidelines recommended in the JORC Code (2012).
Classification Tonnes Gold Contained Silver Contained grade ounces grams ounces grams of Gold per of Silver per tonne tonne Measured - In situ 60,000 15.0 29,000 71.5 139,000 Indicated - In situ 474,000 14.3 217,000 58.7 895,000 Indicated - Mined Stockpile 7,000 7.9 2,000 39.0 9,000 -------- ---------- ----------- Measured and Indicated 541,000 14.3 248,000 59.9 1,043,000 Inferred - In situ 75,000 7.4 18,000 21.9 53,000 -------- ---------- ----------- Total Mineral Resource Estimate 616,000 13.4 266,000 55.3 1,096,000 ======== ========== =========== Reported from 3D block model with grades estimated by Ordinary Kriging with 15m x 15m Selective Mining Unit Local Uniform Conditioning adjustment. Minimum vein width is 1.2m. Totals may not appear to add up due to appropriate rounding. Cut-off grade 3.5 g/t gold. In situ dry bulk density 2.72.
The Cononish mineralisation is open at depth down plunge and to the west along strike. There is therefore potential to add to the resource by further extensional drilling.
Work has now commenced to use the 3D geological model to quantitatively assess the optimal mining methodology for the Cononish deposit. The outcome of this, combined with the new MRE, will form a revised mine development plan which is scheduled for completion in the second quarter of 2015.
Grampian Gold Project
The Company has continued to actively pursue exploration activities on its substantial land position in the Dalradian group of the south west Grampians, a terrain highly prospective for both gold and potential base metal occurrences. The majority (85%) of the area currently under option to Scotgold is located outside the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park.
The Company's strategy has been to advance the Cononish Project to production whilst conducting early stage regional exploration over the wider Grampian Gold project area in conjunction with follow up work on the more advanced prospects close to the Cononish project area.
The Grampian Gold project encompasses a large area of the highly prospective Dalradian sequence. Basic exploration data, including gravity and airborne magnetics, is available from government surveys carried out between 1950s and 1970s but is of a quality and spacing that does not adequately reflect the prospectivity of the area. This and the general lack of previous exploration over the area (other than early stage exploration in the vicinity of the Cononish project) has dictated the Company's approach to exploration.
The Company holds five option agreements with the Crown over the highly prospective Dalradian sequence in the south western Grampians of Scotland. Previously, these option agreements had been renewed annually. During 2014, the Crown indicated it was undertaking a review of its option arrangements. Subsequent to its review, the Crown has recently indicated that option agreements will be granted for period of up to six years (subject to satisfactory performance) with review and appropriate area reduction after one and three years. The Crown has indicated, subject to the conclusion of the appropriate legal agreements, that it has re-granted all the Company's existing option areas subject to a reduction in area in the Inverliever option area. The Company will update shareholders of the exact terms when the form of the agreements is finalised.
In order to advance its understanding of the regional setting, over the past three years, the Company has embarked on a regional scale stream sediment sampling program.
In the initial wide spaced regional program, in excess of 750 stream sediment samples were taken over the area. Initial interpretation of these results continues and this program is now being followed up by a more detailed infill sampling program in the anomalous result areas in order to further target areas for detailed fieldwork and prospecting. To date a further 300 samples have been taken in the infill program with a further 187 to be taken.
In parallel with this regional program, Scotgold continues to evaluate previously identified high grade outcrop samples identified by previous exploration close to the Cononish project.
The Company believes that the next phase of exploration in the central 'Tyndrum' option area should compromise an airborne geophysical survey in order to assess the nature and continuity of the structural regime in this area with a view to determining its potential to host similar 'Cononish style' deposits. Results from the infill stream sediment sampling program will guide further exploration effort in areas outside the immediate Cononish area.
FINANCING
Capital Raisings and Loan Repayment
During the period the company raised $3,359,739 from placements and an entitlements issue, $1,000,000 from a Convertible Note issue and repaid in full the RMB loan at a cost of $3,031,286.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014
NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Statement of compliance
These interim consolidated financial statements are general purpose financial statements prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, applicable accounting standards including AASB 134 'Interim Financial Reporting', Accounting Interpretations and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB'). Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'.
This condensed half-year report does not include full disclosures of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Therefore, it cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and cash flows of the group as in the full financial report.
It is recommended that the financial report be read in conjunction with the annual financial report for the year ended 30 June 2014 and any public announcements made by Scotgold Resources Limited and its subsidiaries during the half-year in accordance with continuous disclosure requirements arising under the Corporations Act 2001 and the ASX Listing Rules.
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period.
Basis of preparation
The interim report has been prepared on a historical cost basis. Cost is based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets. The company is domiciled in Australia and all amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted.
For the purpose of preparing the interim report, the half-year has been treated as a discrete reporting period.
Reporting Basis and Conventions
The financial report has been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes the commercial realisation of the future potential of the Group's assets and the discharge of their liabilities in the normal course of business.
The financial report has also been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical cost.
Going Concern
As at 31 December 2014, the Group had a cash balance of $639,406, a loss for the six-month period of $1,240,625 and had a net cash outflow from operating and investing activities of $998,004. In order to meet ongoing administrative and exploration expenditure, the Directors have forecast that a capital raising and/or entering into a sale or joint venture of assets is required.
The Directors believe the Company will obtain sufficient funding to enable it and the consolidated entity to continue as going concerns and that it is appropriate to adopt that basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial report. However, the existence of the above conditions constitute a material uncertainty in relation to the company's ability to continue as a going concern and whether it will therefore realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business.
Significant accounting judgements and key estimates
The preparation of interim financial reports 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 this interim report, 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 report for the year ended 30 June 2014.
Accounting policies and methods of computation
The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period. These accounting policies are consistent with Australian Accounting Standards and with International Financial Reporting Standards.
NOTE 2 - DEFERRED EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION EXPENDITURE Consolidated Six months Twelve to months to 31 December 30 June 2014 2014 $ $ Balance at beginning of period 13,894,769 13,348,454 Expenditure incurred during the period 378,188 546,315 ------------ ----------- Total deferred exploration and evaluation expenditure 14,272,957 13,894,769 ============ ===========

CONVERTIBLE NOTES
The company has entered into convertible note agreements (Convertible Notes) on the terms and conditions set out in the Company's Notice of Meeting dated 23 June 2014 (and approved by Shareholders at the General Meeting on 30 July 2014).
$1 million has been advanced to the Company under the Convertible Note Agreements. The funds raised by the Convertible Notes will be used as part-repayment of the RMB Facility as described below and for working capital.
The Convertible Notes have a repayment date of 24 months from their date of issue, with an interest rate of 1% per annum. The holders of the Convertible Notes may elect to convert the Convertible Notes (in part or in full) into ordinary shares in the Company at a conversion price of $0.0075 per share. For every share issued on conversion of the Convertible Notes, one free attaching option will be issued, exercisable at $0.012 on or before 31 March 2016. Full details of the Convertible Notes and attaching options were set out in the Company's Notice of Meeting dated 23 June 2014.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REVIEW REPORT
To the members of Scotgold Resources Limited
Report on the Half-Year Financial Report
We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Scotgold Resources Limited ("the company") which comprises the condensed statement of financial position as at 31 December 2014, the condensed statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, condensed statement of changes in equity and condensed statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes and the directors' declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the half-year end or from time to time during the half-year.
Directors' responsibility for the half-year financial report
The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor's responsibility
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity's financial position as at 31 December 2014 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001. As the Auditor of the company, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the annual financial report.
A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than it conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in it. Accordingly, we do not express it opinion.

Conclusion
Based on our review, which is not audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of Scotgold Resources Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:
a) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity's financial position as at 31 December 2014 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and
b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
