Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements
April 30, 2025
(Unaudited – Prepared by Management)
(Stated in Canadian dollars)
1. Nature and continuance of operations
Cantex Mine Development Corp. ("Cantex" or the "Company") is incorporated under the laws of the Province of Alberta and is considered to be in the exploration stage with respect to its mineral properties. To date, the Company has not generated significant revenues from operations and has not yet determined whether its mineral properties contain ore reserves that are economically recoverable. The Company's common shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "CD" and on the OTCQB Venture Market under the symbol "CTXDF".
The head office, principal address and registered and records office of the Company are located at 203-1634 Harvey Avenue, Kelowna, BC V1Y 6G2.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared by management on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will continue in operations for the foreseeable future and be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The ability of the Company to continue operations is dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable reserves, successful development of the Company's mineral properties (Note 4), completion of equity financings (Note 9), and generating profitable operations in the future. It is not possible to predict whether economically recoverable reserves exist, the Company's financing efforts will be successful, or if the Company will attain a profitable level of operations.
As at April 30, 2025, the Company has incurred cumulative losses of $99,713,654 (July 31, 2024 – $97,192,959) and has positive working capital of $172,772 (July 31, 2024 – $2,326,381). Additional financing will be required for the Company to continue operations. The above conditions may raise significant doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Should the Company be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business, adjustments would be necessary in the carrying values of assets and liabilities.
2. Basis of presentation
(a) Statement of compliance
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34") using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). The significant policies applied in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as those set out in Note 3 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2024.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's 2024 annual consolidated financial statements. These interim financial statements do not include all the necessary annual disclosure in accordance with IFRS.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were approved for issue by the Audit Committee on June 16, 2025.
(b) Basis of presentation
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Cantex Gold Corp.

2. Basis of presentation (continued)
(c) Adoption of new and revised standards and interpretations
New Standards Adopted During the Year
IAS1 "Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current – Deferral of Effective Date" is an amendment to the standard that is applicable to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2024. The amendments to IAS1 affects only the presentation of liabilities in the statement of financial position, and not the amount or timing of recognition of any asset, liability, income or expense, or the information that entities disclose about them. They:
- clarify that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current should be based on rights that are in existence at the end of the reporting period and align the wording in all affected paragraphs to refer to the "right" to defer settlement by at least one year and make explicit that only rights in place "at the end of the reporting period" should affect the classification of a liability
- clarify that classification is unaffected by expectations about whether an entity will exercise its right to defer settlement of a liability; and
- make clear that settlement refers to the transfers to the counterparty of cash, equity instruments, other assets or services.
The amendment was applied effective August 1, 2024 and did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
New Standards Not Yet Adopted
IFRS 18 "Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements" is a standard to help ensure that financial statements provide relevant information that faithfully represents an entity's assets, liabilities, equity, income and expenses, which will be effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2027. The standard includes discussion surrounding the following matters:
- General requirements for financial statements, including what will comprise the primary financial statements;
- Aggregation and disaggregation of information in the primary financial statements; and
- Specific requirements for the individual primary financial statements.
The Company is not yet able to determine the impact to the financial statements from the adoption of this standard.
IFRS 19 "Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures" is a standard allowing subsidiaries to keep only one set of accounting records, which will be effective for fiscal years beginning on January 1, 2027. This will meet the needs of both the parent company and the users of their financial statements, and reduces disclosure requirements. Subsidiaries can apply IFRS 19 if they do not have public accountability and their parent company applies IFRS Accounting Standards in their consolidated financial statements. A subsidiary does not have public accountability if it does not have equities or debt listed on a stock exchange and does not hold assets in a fiduciary capacity for a broad group of outsiders. The Company is not yet able to determine the impact to the financial statements from the adoption of this standard.

4. Mineral property interests
The Company has not yet determined whether any of its mineral properties contain economically recoverable mineral reserves. Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to the mineral properties in which it, through its subsidiary, has an interest, in accordance with industry standards for the stage of exploration of such properties, those procedures do not guarantee the Company's title.
Title to mining 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. The Company has diligently investigated rights of ownership of all of the mineral concessions in which it has an interest and, to the best of its knowledge, all agreements relating to such ownership rights are in good standing. However, this should not be construed as a guarantee of title. The concessions may be subject to prior claims, agreements or transfers and rights of ownership may be affected by undetected defects.

4. Mineral property interests (continued)
(a) Yukon program
As of April 30, 2025, the Company holds certain claim blocks, which are located northeast of Mayo, Yukon, Canada. These claims are 100% held by the Company and were acquired by staking.
(b) Yemen program
(i) Exploration license
During 1996, the Company was granted a prospecting permit in the Republic of Yemen. The Company has held an exploration license granting exclusive exploration rights and the right to obtain an exploration contract since 1999. Under the terms of the exploration contract, the Government of the Republic of Yemen has the right to offer to acquire, on commercial terms, an undivided interest of up to 49% in this exploration license. In this event, the Company's interest (and that of any partner) would be diluted proportionately.
In January 2012, the exploration license containing the Al Hariqah project was renewed under the new Yemeni mining code. The new license is valid for an initial four year period and can be renewed for two further four year periods.
In October 2014, the Company, in conjunction with Piedmont, declared a state of force majeure in regards to the Al Hariqah project. Due to the current political climate, notice was given to the Chairman of the Geological and Mineral Resource Board of Yemen that the Company no longer felt that the project area was secure. Operations at the Al Hariqah site have since ceased; the Company's current expenditures on the project relate to maintaining our Yemen office and employing office staff to continue to promote our interests in the country.
(ii) Agreement for Al Hariqah property
In December 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with Piedmont Lithium Limited ("Piedmont", formerly known as WCP Resources Ltd) wherein Piedmont can earn an interest in the Al Hariqah gold project by funding advanced exploration and mine development to commercial production. The staged earn-in agreement allows Piedmont to earn up to a 70% interest in the project after funding a minimum of US$30,000,000 over a seven year period.
Piedmont had two years from February 2012 to exercise an option to commence the earn-in to the project, after which they may earn an initial 40% interest in the project by expending US$5,000,000 within two years. As of May 31, 2014, Piedmont gave notice that they felt they had reached this 40% level; the Company does not agree with this statement. In October, 2014, Piedmont gave additional notice that they would no longer be funding the project. Allocation of ownership of the project has not yet been finalized. In May 2021, the Company received notice from Piedmont that it had assigned its interest in Al Hariqah to Lantern Resources Pty Ltd ("Lantern"), an affiliate and subsidiary of Piedmont. During the year ended July 31, 2023, the Company received notice that Lantern was selling its interest in Al Hariqah to a third party; negotiations to determine and settle the percentages of ownership for the project have not been completed to date.
(c) Nevada program
As at April 30, 2025, the Company had two gold exploration claims in the state of Nevada. Reclamation bonds of $59,139 (July 31, 2024 - $59,126) have been posted with the State of Nevada.

10. Contingencies
As at April 30, 2025, the Company has accrued a total of $159,500, relating to the Yemen branch tax audit of the years ended December 31, 2007 to 2012 ($79,069USD) and for the years ended December 31, 2013 to 2018 ($36,410USD).
A notice of assessment was received from the Government of Yemen in December 2014 of $432,845USD for the years ended December 31, 2007 to 2012, which the Company objected to on the basis that incorrect bases were being used in the calculations. In April 2022, the Company received Notice of Assessments from the Government of Yemen in the amount of $271,186USD for the years ended December 31, 2013 to 2018. For both tax audits, the Company provided further evidence to the Government of Yemen regarding the bases used to calculate the assessment and a lower amount was assessed for both. Due to the state of affairs in Yemen, there has been significant delays in finalizing these amounts. During the nine months ended April 30, 2025, the Tax Court of Yemen finalized the amount owed for the 2007 to 2012 years; final say on the 2013 to 2018 tax years has not been received to date. While the Company has not yet been able to finalize payment terms of the assessments, the reassessed amounts have been accrued as a liability.

10. Contingencies (continued)
In March 2023, the Company received a Notice of Assessment from the Government of Yemen in the amount of $12,565USD relating to the 2019 tax review. In August 2023, the Company received a Notice of Assessment from the Government of Yemen in the amount of $11,889USD relating to the 2020 tax review. As with the assessments received in 2014 and 2022 regarding the 2007 to 2018 tax audits, the Company prepared objections to the 2019 and 2020 assessments using the argument that the bases used to calculate the assessments were incorrect. Notices of objection were filed with the Government of Yemen in October 2022, March 2023 and August 2023, respectively. In November, 2024, the Company received the original assessments for the 2021 and 2022 tax years; objections to these assessments have been filed using the same bases as the other years noted.
As the Company believes that the Notice of Assessments will be reversed or significantly reduced after the objections are reviewed, the tax amounts for 2019 to date have not been accrued as the eventual amount of the taxes owed is not known as this time.

12. Capital management (continued)
The Company's primary objective with respect to capital management is to ensure adequate liquid capital resources are in place to fund the exploration of its mineral properties while maintaining its ongoing operations. To secure the additional capital to pursue these plans, the Company may attempt to raise additional funds through the issuance of debt and or equity.
The Company expects its current capital resources will not be sufficient to complete its exploration plans through its current operating period and it will be required to raise additional funds through future equity issuances or secure other financing. To date, the Company has relied on advances from related parties to fund its operations and exploration activities and expects continued financial support through the next twelve months. The Company is currently not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. There were no changes to the Company's capital management during the year. The Company does not pay out dividends. The Company's investment policy is to invest its short-term excess cash in secure deposits in large Canadian financial institutions.
13. Financial instruments and risk management
As at April 30, 2025, the Company's financial instruments are cash, receivables, reclamation bonds, trade and other payables, lease obligations, and amounts due to related parties. Except for reclamation bonds, the amounts reflected in the statement of financial position are carrying amounts and approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. The reclamation bonds amount reflected in the statement of financial position is its carrying amount, adjusted for foreign exchange rate, and approximated its fair value due to the fixed nature of the asset. These financial instruments are classified as follows:
- Cash and reclamation bonds are comprised of balances held at major financial institutions (in the case of reclamation bonds, these are held through the related government body) that are readily convertible into a known amount of cash and which are only subject to an insignificant risk of change in value, are classified as fair value through profit and loss, and are measured at amortized cost;
- Receivables are classified at amortized cost; and
- Trade and other payables, amounts due to related parties and lease obligations are classified at amortized cost.
The Company's financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, including currency, credit, liquidity and price risk.
Fair value is defined as the price what 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. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liabilities.
Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

Currency risk - The Company is exposed to the financial risk related to the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates. The Company operates in Yemen and as such, a portion of its expenses are incurred in the local currency and US dollars. A significant change in the currency exchange rates could have an effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The Company has not hedged its exposure to currency fluctuations.
At April 30, 2025, the Company is exposed to currency risk relating to funds held in U.S. dollars and Yemen rials with a value of approximately $102,715 (July 31, 2024: $114,652). The impact of a 5% change in the exchange rates for these currencies to the Canadian dollar would not materially affect decisions of the Company's operations plans.
Credit risk - Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The majority of the Company's cash is held through a large Canadian financial institution with a high investment grade rating.
At April 30, 2025, the Company has no financial assets that are past due or impaired due to credit risk defaults. The Company's receivables consist mainly of GST receivable due from the Federal Government of Canada. The Company is subject to the risk that its partners will default on amounts owing for their portion of exploration expenditures.
Liquidity risk - Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due (Note 1). The Company manages its liquidity risk through the management of its capital structure and financial leverage as outlined in Note 12 to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
Trade and other payables are generally due within 30 days. No significant amounts are past due.
Amounts due to related parties have no fixed terms of repayment, are unsecured and are non-interest bearing, with the exception of invoices received from CF Minerals. This related party has implemented a policy whereby invoices are due upon receipt and past due accounts may be subject to interest of 1.5% per month. As at April 30, 2025, there was $23,904 in payables to CF Minerals that may be charged interest (July 31, 2023 – $34,930); these were paid subsequent to period end with no interest charged.
Price risk - The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to commodity prices which can impact the Company's ability to raise funding for its exploration and development programs. The Company closely monitors commodity prices to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.
