Notes to the Condensed Interim Financial Statements For the nine months ended June 30, 2024 Expressed in Canadian dollars (Unaudited – prepared by management)

Core Assets Corp.

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

Core Assets Corp. (“Core” or the “Company”) was incorporated on April 20, 2016, under the Company Act of British Columbia and is in the business of acquiring, exploring, developing and evaluating mineral resource properties. The Company is in the exploration stage and has interests in properties located in British Columbia (“BC”), Canada. The head office, principal address and registered and records office of the Company are located at 1450 – 789 West Pender, Vancouver, BC, Canada, V6C 1H2.

On July 8, 2020, the Company received final receipt from the British Columbia Securities Commission for its Long Form Prospectus dated July 7, 2020. On July 27, 2020, the Company’s shares were listed for trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) under the symbol “CC”. The Company’s shares also trade on the OTCQB under the symbol “CCOOF” and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol “A2QCCU”.

These condensed interim financial statements were authorized for issue by the Audit Committee and Board of Directors on August 21, 2024.

The Company has no source of operating cash flows, has not yet achieved profitable operations, has working capital of $3,532,984 at June 30, 2024 (September 30, 2023: $276,230), has accumulated losses since its inception, expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, and has no assurance that sufficient funding will be available to conduct further exploration of its mineral properties. These material uncertainties cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In recognition of these circumstances, management is pursuing various financial alternatives to fund the Company’s exploration and development programs. There is no assurance that these initiatives will be successful.

In the future, the Company may raise additional financing through the issuance of share capital or shareholder loans, however, there can be no assurance that it will be successful in its efforts to do so and that the terms will be favourable to the Company. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses and statement of financial position classifications that might be necessary should the Company be unable to realize its assets and settle its liabilities as a going concern in the normal course of operations. Management is actively seeking to raise the necessary capital to meet its funding requirements and has undertaken available cost-cutting measures. There can be no assurance that management’s plan will be successful. If the going concern assumption were not appropriate for these financial statements, then adjustments would be necessary in the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses and the statement of financial position classifications used. Such adjustments could be material.

The business of mining and exploration involves a high degree of risk and there can be no assurance that current exploration programs will result in profitable mining operations. The Company has no source of revenue, and has significant cash requirements to meet its administrative overhead and maintain its mineral interests.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Statement of Compliance

These condensed 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 of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”), applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION - continued

Basis of Measurement

These financial statements have been prepared on a historical costs basis except for financial instruments classified as financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss, which are stated at their fair value. In addition, this financial statement has been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting.

The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make judgments, 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 reporting period. Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual outcomes can differ from these estimates.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

Estimates and assumptions

In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty considered by management in preparing the financial statements includes:

• The recoverability of the carrying value of the exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on successful development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively, sale of the respective areas of interest;

• The inputs used in assessing the recoverability of deferred income tax assets to the extent that the deductible temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and that the Company will have future taxable income; and

• Management’s assumption that there are currently no decommissioning liabilities is based on the facts and circumstances that have existed during the periods.

Judgments

The critical judgments that the Company’s management has made in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies from those involving estimations that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the Company’s financial statements are as follows:

• Economic recoverability and probability of future economic benefits of exploration, evaluation and development costs: Management has determined that exploratory drilling, evaluation, development and related costs incurred which have been capitalized are economically recoverable. Management uses several criteria in its assessments of economic recoverability and probability of future economic benefit including geologic information, scoping and feasibility studies, accessible facilities, existing permits and life of mine plans.

• Provisions for reclamation: Management assesses its provision for reclamation on an annual basis or when new information becomes available. This assessment includes the estimation of the future rehabilitation costs, the timing of these expenditures, and the impact of changes in discount rates. The actual future expenditures may differ from the amounts currently provided if the estimates made are significantly different than actual results or if there are significant changes in environmental and/or regulatory requirements in the future.

• Going concern: 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.

Certain new standards, interpretations and amendments to existing standards issued by the IASB or IFRIC may have become mandatory or have been issued subsequent to the year ended September 30, 2023. However, none have been identified as applicable or are consequential to the Company.

5. RECLAMATION BOND

At June 30, 2024, the Company has a reclamation security deposit of $37,200 (September 30, 2023: $37,200) with the Ministry of Energy, Mines and Low Carbon Innovation for the proposed exploration program on the Blue Property.

6. EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS

The following is a description of the Company’s property interests and related spending commitments:

Blue Property

On December 10, 2018, the Company signed an agreement with Zimtu Capital Corp. (“Zimtu”), a related party (see Note 9), whereby the Company can earn a 100% interest in and to the Blue Property, in British Columbia. For its participation in the transaction, the Company paid $100,000 and issued 3,000,000 common shares of the Company in staged payments (1,000,000 shares with a fair value of $50,000 issued during the year ended September 30, 2019 and 2,000,000 with a fair value of $225,000 were issued during the year ended September 30, 2021).

On August 1, 2019, the Company signed an agreement with Zimtu, whereby the Company can earn a 100% interest in and to the Silver Lime Property, in British Columbia by issuing 1,000,000 common shares (issued) of the Company.

In August 2020, the Company acquired 8 additional claims in and around the Company’s Blue and Silver Lime properties from Zimtu. The cost to acquire the claims amounted to the cost of staking paid by Zimtu ($23,025). The addition of these claims expanded and consolidated the Blue Property and the Silver Lime Property into one contiguous property that will continue to be called the Blue Property. In June 2021, the Company acquired 6 additional claims in and around the Company’s Blue and Silver Lime properties from Zimtu. The cost to acquire the claims amounted to the cost of staking paid by Zimtu of $26,095 plus 20% interest for a total of $31,314.

During the year ended September 30, 2021, the Company staked an additional 82,257 ha of land, increasing its land package to approximately 108,337 ha. The cost of the staking was $140,950.

On April 6, 2022, the Company acquired a 100% interest in two mineral tenures, consisting of approximately 3,311 Ha, known as the Atlin Lake Claims, at a cost of $10,000 (paid) from an individual. The two tenures cover the western side of the Willison glacier.

During the year ended September 30, 2023, two mineral tenure licences were staked totaling approximately 2,326 hectares, North of the Kim Project.

10. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to market conditions and the Company’s activities. The Company has exposure to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk as a result of its use of financial instruments. This note presents information about the Company’s exposure to each of the above risks and the Company’s objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing these risks. Further quantitative disclosures are included throughout these financial statements.

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. The Board has implemented and monitors compliance with risk management policies as set out herein.

• a) Credit Risk

• Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s cash is subject to credit risk for a maximum of the amounts shown on the statements of financial position.

At June 30, 2024, the Company held cash of $3,952,987 (September 30, 2023: $217,903) with Canadian chartered banks.

• b) Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will incur difficulties meeting its financial obligations as they are due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions without incurring unacceptable losses or risking harm to the Company’s reputation.

As at June 30, 2024, the Company has total current liabilities of $644,779 (September 30, 2023: $171,900). Management intends to meet these obligations by raising funds through future financings.,

c) Market Risk

Market risk consists of currency risk, commodity price risk and interest rate risk. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable limits, while maximizing returns.

i) Currency Risk

Foreign currency exchange rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in foreign exchange rates. Although the Company is in the exploration stage and has not yet developed commercial mineral interests, the underlying commodity price for minerals is impacted by changes in the exchange rate between the Canadian and United States dollar. As all of the Company’s transactions are denominated in Canadian dollars, the Company is not significantly exposed to foreign currency exchange risk at this time.

• ii) Commodity Price Risk

Commodity price risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in commodity prices. Commodity prices for minerals are impacted by world economic events that dictate the levels of supply and demand as well as the relationship between the Canadian and United States dollar, as outlined above. As the Company has not yet developed commercial mineral interests, it is not exposed to commodity price risk at this time.

iii) Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates.

d) 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.

e) Capital Management

Capital is comprised of the Company’s shareholders’ equity and any debt it may issue. As at June 30, 2024, the Company’s shareholders’ equity was $13,577,236 (September 30, 2023: $8,806,806). The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to maintain a flexible capital structure which will allow it to pursue the exploration of its mineral properties. Therefore, the Company monitors the level of risk incurred in its mineral property expenditures relative to its capital structure which is comprised of working capital and shareholders’ equity.

The Company monitors its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to facilitate the management of capital and the exploration of its mineral properties, the Company prepares annual expenditure budgets which are updated as necessary and are reviewed and periodically approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may issue new equity if available on favourable terms, option its mineral properties for cash and/or expenditure commitments from optionees, enter into joint venture arrangements, or dispose of mineral properties. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements and there were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the year.

11. LIABILITY AND INCOME TAX EFFECT ON FLOW-THOUGH SHARES

Funds raised through the issuance of flow-through shares are required to be expended on qualified Canadian mineral exploration expenditures, as defined pursuant to Canadian income tax legislation. The flow-through gross proceeds, less the qualified expenditures made to date, represent the funds received from flow-through share issuances that have not been spent.

On February 17, 2023, the Company issued 7,004,786 common shares on a “flow-through” basis at a price of $0.43 per Share for gross proceeds of $3,012,058. A flow-through share liability of $1,295,885 was recognized at the date of issuance based on the premium value of the flow-through share at the time of issuance. At September 30, 2023, the Company had incurred $3,012,058 in qualified expenditures. The flow-through expenditures were renounced on December 31, 2023.

On November 17, 2023, the Company issued 25,923,752 common shares on a “flow-through” basis at a price of $0.14 per Share for gross proceeds of $3,629,325.
