GAMBIER GOLD CORP. (formerly Canadian Energy Materials Corp.) Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2019 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) (Unaudited – Prepared by Management)
1. CORPORATE INFORMATION
The Company was incorporated on March 2, 2006 in British Columbia. The head office, principal address and records office of the Company are located at 750 - 1095 W Pender Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6E 2M6. The Company’s registered address is at the same address.
The Company is in the process of acquiring and exploring its resource properties and has not yet determined whether these properties contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable. The Company is listed on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX V") under the symbol "CIN". On April 12, 2018, the Company changed its name to Canadian Energy Materials Corp. and its trading symbol to “CHEM”. On February 3, 2020, the Company changed its name to Gambier Gold Corp. and commenced trading under the new trading symbol “GGAU”.
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
(a) Statement of Compliance
This condensed interim consolidated financial information for the nine months ended December 31, 2019 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim financial reporting”. The condensed interim consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2019, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were reviewed by the Audit Committee and approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on February 27, 2020.
(b) Basis of Measurement
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value, as explained in the accounting policies set out in Note 3. In addition, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.
(c) Going Concern
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern, meaning it will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the ordinary course of operations. Different bases of measurement may be appropriate if the Company was not expected to continue operations for the foreseeable future. At December 31, 2019, the Company has not achieved profitable operations, has accumulated losses of $15,604,368 since inception and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business. The above material uncertainties cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon successful results from its exploration and evaluation activities, its ability to attain profitable operations to generate funds and/or its ability to raise equity capital or borrowings sufficient to meet its current and future obligations. Although the Company has been successful in the past in raising funds to continue operations, there is no assurance it will be able to do so in the future.

(formerly Canadian Energy Materials Corp.) Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2019 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) (Unaudited – Prepared by Management)
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial data is based on accounting principles and practices consistent with those used in the preparation of the audited consolidated financial statements as March 31, 2019. The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2019:
Accounting Standards and Amendments Adopted on April 1, 2019
The Company has adopted IFRS 16 Leases (“IFRS 16”) which is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. IFRS 16 specifies how to recognize, measure, present and disclose leases. The standard provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. The adoption of IFRS 16 did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements.
4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS
The Company makes estimates and assumptions about the future that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. In the future, actual experience may differ from these estimates and assumptions.
The effect of a change in an accounting estimate is recognized prospectively by including it in comprehensive loss in the year of the change, if the change affects that year only, or in the year of the change and future years, if the change affects both.
Critical judgments in applying accounting policies
Information about critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant risk of causing material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities recognized in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements within the next financial year are discussed below:
Exploration and Evaluation Asset and Impairment
The application of the Company’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation assets and impairment of the capitalized expenditures requires judgment in determining whether it is likely that future economic benefits will flow to the Company, which may be based on assumptions about future events or circumstances. Estimates and assumptions made may change if new information becomes available. If, after an expenditure is capitalized, information becomes available suggesting that the recovery of the expenditure is unlikely, the amount capitalized is written off in profit or loss in the year the new information becomes available.

4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS – (cont’d)
Going Concern
The assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern require significant judgement. See Note 2(c).
Title to Mineral Property Interests
Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, these procedures do not guarantee the Company’s title. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.
5. SEGMENTED INFORMATION
The Company currently operates in one industry segment, being mineral exploration and in one geographic area, being Canada.
6. EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS

(a) Grindstone Claims, New Brunswick
On August 20, 2018, the Company entered into a mineral property acquisition agreement with Roland J.B. Lovesey, Dick Mann, Norm Pitre and David Mann (the “Vendors”) in which the Company will acquire a 100% interest in five mineral claims located in New Brunswick, Canada (also known as “Grindstone claims”) in exchange for cash totalling $15,870 (paid) plus renewal fees and claim transfer fees. The Company paid $4,760 to transfer the claim and renewal fees. These claims are contiguous to the claims held by CIN Energy Materials Inc.
The Company will pay to the Vendors on commencement of Commercial Production relative to each Vendor’s individual Vendor’s interest, a Net Smelter return royalty of 2% (“NSR”). The Company shall have the right, at any time, to purchase one-half of the NSR from the Vendors in consideration of the aggregate payment of $1,000,000 to be distributed to each Vendor based on the individual Vendor interest thereby leaving the Vendors with a one percent (1%) NSR Royalty.
During the year ended March 31, 2019, the Company staked additional claims in New Brunswick, Canada for $3,200 which are contiguous to the Grindstone Claims.
On August 31, 2018, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Agreement”) to purchase 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares of CIN Energy Materials Inc., a private company, (“CIN”), which holds 100% interest in Grindstone Copper-nickel-cobalt project in an unexplored region of Northwestern New Brunswick, Canada. The acquisition has been accounted for as an asset acquisition. In consideration for the net assets acquired, the Company agreed to issued to the Shareholders of CIN a total of 12,000,000 common shares of the Company valued at $1,800,000 ($0.15 per share) pursuant to the terms of the Agreement. The Company also issued 666,666 units as finders fees in connection with this transaction which was valued at the same price of the non-flow-through private placement of $0.15 per unit totalling $100,000. As a result of this transaction CIN became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. This transaction was completed on December 21, 2018. The purchase price of $1,900,000 was allocated to the value of exploration and evaluation assets.

8. SHARE CAPITAL – (cont’d)
(b) Issued – (cont’d)
For the year ended March 31, 2019 – (cont’d)
On December 21, 2018, the Company complete private placements for 1,150,000 flow-through units at a price of $0.20 and 2,142,733 non-flow-through units at a price of $0.15 per unit for total proceeds of $551,410. Each flow-through unit consists of one flow-through share and one-half of one transferable nonflow-through common share purchase exercisable at a price of $0.35 per share expiring on December 21, 2020. Each non-flow-through unit consists of one non-flow-through common share and one-half of one transferable non-flow-through common share purchase warrant, exercisable at a price of $0.25 per share expiring on December 21, 2020. The fair value of the warrants was $127,373 which was included in equity reserves. The fair value has been estimated as of the announcement date using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: share price on announcement date of $0.15, riskfree interest rate of 1.91%, dividend yield of 0%, volatility of 146.47% and expected life of two years. In connection with the private placement the Company paid cash finders fees totalling $32,992 and issued 127,952 agent’s warrants.

10. CAPITAL DISCLOSURES
The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to identify, pursue and complete the exploration and development of resource properties, to maintain financial strength, to protect its ability to meet its on-going liabilities, to continue as a going concern, to maintain credit worthiness and to maximize returns for shareholders over the long term. The Company does not have any externally imposed capital requirements to which it is subject, other than flow-through commitments. Capital of the Company comprises cash and shareholders’ equity.
The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue new shares.
The Company’s investment policy is to invest its cash in financial instruments in high credit quality financial institutions with terms to maturity selected with regards to the expected timing of expenditures from continuing operations.
There were no changes to the Company’s approach to capital management during the period.

11. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISKS – (cont’d)
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company manages liquidity risk through the management of its capital structure and financial leverage as outlined in the note.
The Company monitors its ability to meet its short-term administrative expenditures by matching investment income received to expenditures to be incurred, and by disposing of its investments when required. All of the Company’s financial liabilities have contractual maturities of 30 days or are due on demand and are subject to normal trade terms.
As at December 31, 2019, the Company had a cash balance of $110,803 and GST receivable of $3,412 to settle current liabilities of $365,678.
Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates, investment fluctuations, and commodity and equity prices. The Company's ability to raise capital to fund mineral resource exploration is subject to risks associated with fluctuations in mineral resource prices. Management closely monitors commodity prices, individual equity movements, and the stock market to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.
Interest rate risk
The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk.
Price risk
The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to commodity and 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. Commodity price risk is defined as the potential adverse impact on earnings and economic value due to commodity price movements and volatilities. The Company closely monitors commodity prices of gold and other precious and base metals, individual equity movements, and the stock market to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.
Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to credit risk is cash. To minimize the credit risk on cash the Company places the instrument with a high credit quality financial institution. The maximum exposure to loss arising from these advances is equal to their total carrying amounts.

Fair Values
The Company’s financial instruments include cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and loans payable. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of their current nature. It is impractical to determine the fair value of these financial instruments with sufficient reliability due to the nature of these financial instruments, the absence of secondary market and the significant cost of obtaining external appraisals. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying value under the effective interest method.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The Company classifies its fair value measurements in accordance with the three-level fair value hierarchy as follows:
-
Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; and
-
Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
-
Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy as follows:
| At March 31, 2019 | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cash | $303,363 | $ | - | $ | - | $303,363 |
| At December 31, 2019 | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total | ||
| Cash | $110,803 | $ | - | $ | - | $110,803 |
