Critical Accounting Estimates

A detailed summary of all of the Company's significant accounting policies is included in Note 2 to the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2024.

Basis of Presentation

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS, as issued by the IASB and the interpretations of the IFRS interpretations committee (“IFRIC”) in effect at May 31, 2024. The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis and presented in Canadian dollars, which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.

Use of Accounting Estimates and Judgments

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements, in conformity with IFRS, requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and further periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Assumptions about the future and other sources of estimation and judgment uncertainty that management has made at the end of the reporting year, relate to:

(i) Going concern

The assessment of the Company’s ability to execute its strategy by funding future working capital involves judgment. Estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstance. There is a material uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s principal source of cash is from private placements. The Company is dependent on raising funds in order to have sufficient capital to be able to identify, evaluate and then acquire an interest in assets or a business.

(ii) The recoverability and measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities

Tax interpretations, regulations, and legislation are subject to change. The determination of income tax expense and deferred tax involves judgment and estimates as to the future taxable earnings, expected timing of reversals of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and interpretations of laws in the countries in which the Company operates. The Company is subject to assessments by tax authorities who may interpret the tax law differently. Changes in these estimates may materially affect the final amount of deferred taxes or the timing of tax payments.

Financial Instruments

A detailed summary of all of the Company's financial instruments is included in Note 5 to the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2024.

Capital Management

6

The Company's objective when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to provide returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying natural resource properties. The Company's objective is met by retaining adequate equity to guard against the possibility that cash flows from assets will not be sufficient to meet future cash flow requirements. The Company considers its capital structure to include cash and working capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may from time-to-time issue shares and adjust its capital spending to manage current and projected debt levels. To assess capital and operating efficiency and financial strength, the Company continually monitors its net cash and working capital.

Taxes

Tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity. Current tax expense is the expected tax payable on taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at period end, adjusted for amendments to tax payable with regards to previous years.

Deferred tax is recorded using the liability method, providing for temporary differences, between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Temporary differences are not provided for relating to goodwill not deductible for tax purposes, the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting or taxable loss, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date.

A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. To the extent that the Company does not consider it probable that a deferred tax asset will be recovered, it does not recognize the asset. The Company has assessed that it is improbable that such assets will be realized and has accordingly not recognized a value for deferred taxes.

Functional Currency

The Company follows IAS 21 The effect of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates when accounting for foreign Exchange Rates and has determined that its functional currency is the Canadian dollar.

Share Capital

The Company’s authorized capital consists of an unlimited number of Common Shares, of which only 15,333,400 Common Shares are issued and outstanding as at May 31, 2024 as fully paid and non-assessable. 3,900,000 common shares were issued to four Directors of the Company. 11,433,400 of special warrants were converted to 11,433,400 common shares on December 4, 2023. Holders of the Common Shares are entitled to vote at all meetings of the holders of the Common Shares, and to participate ratably in any distribution of the Company’s property or assets upon liquidation or wind-up.

The Board is authorized to issue additional Common Shares on such terms and conditions and for such consideration as the Board may deem appropriate without further security holder action.

Warrants

As at May 31, 2024, hereof, the Company has no Special Warrants issued and outstanding. These Special Warrants were issued in connection with the Offering. Each Special Warrant entitles the holder to acquire, for no additional consideration, one common share unit three business days after a receipt is issued for a (final) prospectus by the securities regulatory authorities. All unexercised warrants will be deemed to be exercised on the date that the Issuer’s shares commence trading on a recognized stock exchange.

The Company has granted to each holder of a Special Warrant a contractual right of rescission of the prospectus- exempt transaction under which the Special Warrant was initially acquired. The contractual right of rescission provides that if a holder of a Special Warrant who acquires a Share on exercise of the Special Warrant as provided for in this Prospectus is, or becomes, entitled under the securities legislation of a jurisdiction to the remedy of rescission because of the

7

Prospectus or an amendment to the Prospectus containing a misrepresentation,

  • (a) the holder is entitled to rescission of both the holder’s exercise of its Special Warrant and the private placement transaction under which the Special Warrant was initially acquired,

  • (b) the holder is entitled in connection with the rescission to a full refund of all consideration paid to the Issuer, as the case may be, on the acquisition of the Special Warrant.

Earnings (Loss) per Share

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) data for its common shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted loss per share is calculated using the treasury stock method.

Under the treasury stock method, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the calculation of diluted loss per share assumes that the proceeds to be received on the exercise of dilutive share options and warrants are used to repurchase common shares at the average market price during the reporting periods. However, in periods where a net loss is reported, outstanding options and warrants are excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share, as they are anti-dilutive and as a result diluted loss per share is equal to the basic loss per share.

Disclosure of Outstanding Security Data

Common Shares

As at the date of this MD&A and May 31, 2024, the Company had 15,333,400 and 15,333,400 common shares issued and outstanding, respectively.

Special Warrants

As at the date of this MD&A and May 31, 2024, the Company has no special warrants outstanding.
