    Note 21: Contingent Liabilities
    The Group has a number of contingent liabilities in respect of
    deferred purchase consideration for the acquisition its mining
    and exploration tenements.
    At 30 June 2017, the Group’s contingent liabilities total
    US$20.70m (30 June 2016: US$24.70m) in respect of its BBM,
    PT Borneo Bara Prima (BBP), and TBAR projects. The amounts
    are payable on the achievement of certain milestones,
    including but not limited to the establishment of certain
    JORC Inferred Coal Resources and the issuance of production
    operation IUPs (licences) and production forestry permit.
    Payments which may be triggered by the
    commencement of development at BBM
    Deferred purchase consideration
    As part of the Group’s acquisition of its interest in the BBM
    project, it was agreed an amount of $10.0 million would
    be payable within 30 days of the issue of the Production/
    Operations IUP (mining license granted under the Indonesian
    New Mining Law). On 1 May 2013, the Production/Operations
    IUP was granted but the payment to the vendor was deferred
    pending the issuance of the Forestry Production Permit
    (required to commence the construction and production). On
    15 August 2015, Cokal received BBM’s Forestry Production
    Permit.
    On 3 March 2016, the Group executed a variation letter with
    the vendor whereby the parties agreed the obligation for
    $10.0 million payment would triggered when Cokal had
    sufficient funds to commencement of the construction/
    development of the BBM project.
    No liability is recognised as at 30 June 2017 in respect this
    deferred purchase consideration as the Group had not
    secured funding to commence the construction/development
    of the BBM project or the start-up BBM Anak project.
    As part of the Directors consideration of the ability of the
    Group to continue as a going concern (refer note 1 (c)), the
    Directors are aware some or all of the deferred consideration
    may be triggered by the commencement at the BBM Anak
    project. Uncertainty exists as to whether current activity
    at BBM Anak meets the condition of the funding of the
    development of the BBM project, as anticipated as part of the
    3 March 2016 agreement between the parties.
    At this time, the Group does not have sufficient funds to
    develop the larger BBM project or fund any portion of the
    $10.0 million deferred consideration that may be payable. To
    the extent monies are required to be paid, the Group will need​
    to raise capital to fund these payments.
