MINERAL MOUNTAIN RESOURCES LTD. NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NINE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020 (Unaudited – Prepared by Management)
1. NATURE OF BUSINESS
Mineral Mountain Resources Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated on September 1, 2006 under the laws of British Columbia, Canada and maintains its head office at Suite 401, 1195 West Broadway, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6H 3X5. Its registered office is located at Suite 2300, 550 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 2B5. The Company is engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and development of mineral properties in North America. The Company’s common shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (TSX-V) under the symbol “MMV” and on the OTCQB under the symbol “MNRLF”.
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 Interim Financial Reporting . The condensed unaudited interim financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required for a complete set of annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2020, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Mineral Mountain Resources (SD) Inc. All inter-company transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.
Basis of measurement
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair values. In addition these consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.
Going concern of operations
The Company is an exploration stage company. The Company has a history of losses with no operating revenue. The ability of the Company to recover the costs it has incurred to date on the exploration and evaluation assets is dependent upon the Company being able to identify a commercial ore body, to finance its exploration and development costs and to resolve any environmental, regulatory, or other constraints which may hinder the successful development of the assets. The aforementioned factors indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast 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 on its ability to obtain adequate financing on reasonable terms from lenders, shareholders and other investors and/or to commence profitable operations in the future. Although the Company has been successful in raising funds in the past, there is no assurance that it will be able to obtain adequate financing in which case the Company may be unable to meet its obligations. The directors, after reviewing the current cash position and having considered the Company’s ability to raise funds in the short term, adopt the going concern basis in preparing its consolidated financial statements.
These consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments that would be required if going concern is not an appropriate basis for preparation of the financial statements. These adjustments could be material.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION (cont’d…)
Functional and presentation currency
These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is functional currency of the Company and its subsidiary.
Significant estimates and assumptions
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company’s management reviews these estimates and underlying assumptions on an ongoing basis, based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Revisions to estimates are adjusted for prospectively in the period in which the estimates are revised. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates include:
-
i) The determination of the fair value of stock options and agent’s warrants using stock pricing models, require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected price volatility. Changes in the subjective input assumptions could materially affect the fair value estimate.
-
ii) The determination of deferred income tax assets or liabilities requires subjective assumptions regarding future income tax rates and the likelihood of utilizing tax carry-forwards. Changes in these assumptions could materially affect the recorded amounts.
Significant judgments
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, apart from those involving estimates, in applying accounting policies. The most significant judgments in applying the Company’s financial statements include:
-
i) Recorded costs of exploration and evaluation assets are not intended to reflect present or future values of these assets. The assessment of indications of impairment loss and the reversal of an impairment loss and the measuring of the recoverable amount when impairment tests have been prepared involve judgment. The recorded costs are subject to measurement uncertainty and it is reasonably possible, based on existing knowledge, that change in future conditions could require a material change in the recognized amount.
-
ii) The assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern involves judgment regarding future funding available for its exploration projects and working capital requirements and whether there are events or conditions that may give rise to significant uncertainty.
-
iii) The classification of financial instruments.
-
iv) The determination of whether it is likely that future taxable profits will be available to utilize against any deferred tax assets.
-
v) The determination of whether a decline in the fair value of a financial asset classified as available-for-sale is prolonged and /or significant and is therefore an impairment.

Standby Gold Project, South Dakota
The Company’s Standby Gold project is located in the Rochford Mining District of the Black Hills, South Dakota. The Standby project includes the following properties:
Rochford Claims
During the year ended March 31, 2013, the Company staked 289 unpatented mineral claims (“Rochford Claims”) situated in the Rochford Mining District of the Black Hills, South Dakota, at a cost of $191,390.
During the year ended March 31, 2017, the Company staked an additional 150 unpatented federal lode mining claims for approximately $81,400.
BHB Claims
On March 7, 2016, the Company and its wholly-owned US subsidiary entered into a purchase and sale agreement (“BHB Agreement”) with four individuals (collectively the “Owners”) to purchase a 100% interest in 19 unpatented lode mineral claims (“BHB Claims”) located in the Rochford Mining District and the historical database pertaining to the BHB Claims in consideration of 4,000,000 shares of the Company (issued during the year ended March 31, 2017 with a fair value of $1,500,000).
In addition, the Company agreed to grant the Owners a collective 2% net smelter returns royalty (“NSR”) on the BHB Claims, a collective 1% NSR on the Company’s Rochford Claims and a collective 1.5% NSR on claims falling within the area of mutual interest (“Area of Interest Claims Royalty”). The Area of Interest Claims Royalty will only be granted if the acquired property or properties are not already burdened with a royalty.
Standby Property
On September 2, 2016, the Company and its wholly-owned US subsidiary entered into an option agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the 9 patented lode mineral claims located in the Rochford Mining District. Pursuant to the option agreement, the Company made cash payments of US$500,000 over a three year period to the optionor and earned a 100% interest in the Standby Property.
In addition, the Company agreed to grant the optionor a 2% NSR and the Company has the option to purchase up to one-half of the NSR (1% NSR) at the price of US$1,500,000 for 1% NSR or a proportionate amount if the Company purchases less than 1% of the NSR.

15. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company classified its financial instruments as follows: cash and restricted cash classified as subsequently measured at amortized cost; trade and other payables and amounts due to related parties as subsequently measured at amortized cost financial liabilities. The carrying amount of financial assets and liabilities carried at amortized cost is a reasonable approximation of fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity of these financial instruments.
Financial risk management
The Company’s financial risks arising from its financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk and foreign exchange rate risk. The Company’s exposures to these risks and the policies on how to mitigate these risks are set out below. Management manages and monitors these exposures to ensure appropriate measures are implemented on a timely and effective manner.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of potential loss to the Company if the counter party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The credit risk of the Company is associated with cash and restricted cash. The credit risk with respect to its cash and restricted cash is minimal as they are held with high-credit quality financial institutions. Management does not expect these counterparties to fail to meet their obligations.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not meet its obligations associated with its financial liabilities as they fall due. The Company performs cash flow forecasting for each fiscal year to ensure there is sufficient cash available to fund its projects and operations. As at December 31, 2020, the Company had a cash balance of $706,859 and current liabilities of $460,237. The Company’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables which have contractual maturities of 30 days or are due on demand.
At present, the Company’s operations do not generate cash flow. The Company’s primary source of funding has been the issuance of equity securities through private placements and the exercise of stock options and warrants as well as loans from related parties. Despite previous success in acquiring these financings, there is no guarantee of obtaining future financings.
Interest rate risk
Interest risk is the risk that fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in the market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk to the extent that the cash maintained at the financial institutions. The interest rate risks on cash and restricted cash are not considered significant due to their shortterm nature and maturity.
Foreign exchange rate risk
Foreign exchange risk is the risk that fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company’s functional currency is the Canadian dollar and major purchases are transacted in Canadian dollars. The Company funds certain operations, exploration and administrative expenses in the United States by using US dollars converted from its Canadian bank accounts. At December 31, 2020, the Company had financial assets of $174,730 and financial liabilities of $413,265 denominated in United States dollars. A 10% strengthening of the US dollar would affect net loss by approximately $24,000. The Company does not hedge its foreign exchange risk.

16. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy establishes three levels to classify the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data or other means. Level 3 inputs are unobservable (supported by little or no market activity). The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.
As at December 31, 2020, the Company has no financial assets or financial liabilities measured at fair value. There have been no changes in these levels and no changes in classifications during the nine months ended December 31, 2020.
17. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Company’s objective when managing capital is to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, pursue exploration of its mineral property interest and to maintain a flexible capital structure for the benefits of its stakeholders. In the management of capital, the Company includes components of shareholders’ equity in the definition of capital.
The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristic of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue common shares or dispose of assets.
Management reviews the capital structure on a regular basis to ensure that the Company’s capital management objectives are achieved. There was no change in the Company’s approach to capital management from the prior year. The Company’s capital is not subject to any external restrictions.
18. EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD
