Austin Resources Ltd. Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) (Unaudited)
1. Nature of operations and going concern
Austin Resources Ltd. (individually, or collectively with its subsidiary, as applicable, “Austin Resources”, or the “Company”) completed the sale of all of its properties in Chile during the year ended December 31, 2020 and as a result of the transaction, the Company did not maintain the requirements for a TSX Venture Tier 2 company and its listing was transferred to the NEX board of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "NEX"). While the Company currently holds no mineral properties, it retains its classification as a ‘Mineral Exploration/Development’ company.
The Company’s head office and principal address in Canada is The Canadian Venture Building, 82 Richmond St East, Suite 204, Toronto, Ontario, M5C 1P1.
On February 27, 2020, the Company transferred all of its interest in the mineral exploration properties in Chile held by Minera Azul Ventures Limitada ("Minera Azul"), the Company's wholly owned Chilean subsidiary. The Company retained a 1% net smelter royalty on its interest transferred with 50% of such royalty retained being able to be acquired for US$63,166. As a result of the completion of the agreement with Bluerock Resources SPA, Minera Azul no longer had any assets. On May 14, 2020, the Company wound up operations in Chile and disposed of its interest in Minera Azul.
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Realization values may be substantially different from the carrying values as shown. As at June 30, 2022, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations, had accumulated losses of $6,450,722 (December 31, 2021 - accumulated losses of $6,415,470) since inception, had a working capital deficiency of $306,647 (December 31, 2021 - working capital deficiency of $271,395) and expects to incur further losses in the search for a new business, all of which constitutes a material uncertainty which casts significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. There is no assurance that these funds will be available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Such adjustments could be material.
Since December 31, 2019, the outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus, specifically identified as “COVID-19”, has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which include the implementation of travel bans, self-imposed quarantine periods and social distancing, have caused material disruption to businesses globally resulting in an economic slowdown. Global equity markets have experienced significant volatility and weakness. Governments and central banks have reacted with significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize economic conditions. The duration and impact of the COVID-19 outbreak is unknown at this time, as is the efficacy of the government and central bank interventions. It is not possible to reliably estimate the length and severity of these developments and the impact on the financial results and condition of the Company in future periods.

New accounting standard not yet adopted
Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current (Amendments to IAS 1)
The IASB has published Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current (Amendments to IAS 1) which clarifies the guidance on whether a liability should be classified as either current or non-current. The amendments:
-
clarify that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current should only be based on rights that are in place"at the end of the reporting period"
-
clarify that classification is unaffected by expectations about whether an entity will exercise its right to defer settlement of a liability
-
make clear that settlement includes transfers to the counterparty of cash, equity instruments, other assets or services that result in extinguishment of the liability.
This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022. Earlier application is permitted.The extent of the impact of adoption of this amendment has not yet been determined.
