1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
CopperCorp Resources Inc. (“CopperCorp”, the “Company”) was incorporated pursuant to the provisions of the British Columbia Business Corporations Act on July 21, 2020. The Company changed its name to CopperCorp Resources Inc. on April 28, 2021. The Company’s head office address and its registered and records office address is at Suite 800 – 885 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC, V6C 3H1. The Company is a mineral exploration company with interests in mineral properties in Australia.
The business of exploring for minerals involves a high degree of risk and there can be no assurance that current exploration programs will result in profitable mining operations. The recoverability of the carrying value of exploration properties and the Company’s continued existence are dependent upon the preservation of its interest in the underlying properties, the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the achievement of profitable operations, or the ability of the Company to raise alternative financing, if necessary, or alternatively upon the Company’s ability to dispose of its interests on an advantageous basis. Management estimates that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and to sustain operations for at least the next twelve months.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee (“IFRIC”).
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on November 25, 2021.

10. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Fair value
Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data.
Cash is carried at fair value using a Level 1 fair value measurement. The recorded values of GST receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to their short-term to maturities which is the amount presented on the statement of financial position.
Financial risk factors
The Company’s risk exposures and the impact on the Company’s financial statements are summarized below Credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and GST receivable due from the Government of Canada. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss by placing its cash with major financial institutions. The Company believes its credit risk with respect to GST receivable is minimal.
Liquidity risk
The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. As at September 30, 2021, the Company had a working capital balance of $7,063,806.
Interest rate risk
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk to the extent that the cash maintained at the financial institution is subject to floating rates of interest. The interest rate risk on cash is not considered significant.
Foreign currency risk
The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on fluctuations related to cash, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, denominated in Australian dollars. A 10% fluctuation between the Canadian dollar against the Australian dollar would impact profit or loss by approximately $14,547.
Price risk
The Company has limited exposure to price risk with respect to equity prices. Equity price risk is defined as the potential adverse impact on the Company’s earnings due to movements in individual equity prices or general movements in the level of the stock market.
11. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
Capital is comprised of the Company’s shareholders’ equity. As at September 30, 2021, the Company’s shareholders’ equity was $7,620,186 and there was no long-term debt outstanding. The Company manages its capital structure to maximize its financial flexibility making adjustments to it in response to changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets and business opportunities. The Company does not presently utilize any quantitative measures to monitor its capital. The Company currently is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. There were no changes to the Company’s capital management during the period.
