GRAYCLIFF EXPLORATION LIMITED (Formerly 1093683 B.C. Ltd.) Notes to the Condensed Interim Financial Statements (unaudited) For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 Expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated
1. Nature of Operations and Going Concern
Graycliff Exploration Limited (formerly 1093683 BC Ltd.), a company incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada (the “ Company ” or “ Graycliff ”) is engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development and extraction of natural resources, specifically precious metals. Its head office is located at 777 Hornby Street, Suite 600, Vancouver, BC, V6Z 1S4, Canada. The Company intends on completing a prospectus for the purposes of going public on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”).
The Company was incorporated on October 19, 2016 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Monterey Minerals Inc. (“Monterey”). On August 1, 2018, Monterey completed a plan of arrangement whereby it issued 1,010,549 common shares of the Company to Monterey shareholders (the “spinout”) for $NIL consideration.
Mineral exploration projects, even when successful, require large amounts of exploration investment to prove mineable reserves, generally over long periods of time, prior to commencement of production. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon, among other things, being able to obtain additional financing, the continued support of its existing shareholders, and the outlining and development of commercial deposits of metals at its project to generate positive cash flows from operations. While the Company has been successful in securing financing during 2019 and identifying suitable properties to date, there is no assurance that the Company will continue to be successful in achieving these objectives. As at March 31, 2020, the Company had a working capital balance of $319,745 and an accumulated deficit of $414,954. The Company’s ability to continue operations is dependent on management’s ability to secure additional financing, and while it has been successful in doing so in the past, there can be no assurances that it will be able to do so in the future. These conditions indicate the existence of material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The ability of the Company to realize the costs it has incurred to date on its properties is dependent upon the Company being able to identify economically recoverable reserves, to finance their development costs and to resolve any environmental, regulatory or other constraints, which may hinder the successful development of the reserves. Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to the properties on which it is conducting exploration and development activities and in which it has an interest, in accordance with industry standards for the current stage of exploration and development of such properties, these procedures do not guarantee the Company's title. Property title may be subject to government licensing requirements or regulations, unregistered prior agreements, unregistered claims, and non-compliance with regulatory and environmental requirements.
These unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, they do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. It would, in this situation, be required to realize its assets and liquidate its liabilities and commitments in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those in the accompanying Financial Statements. Such adjustments could be material.
2. Basis of Presentation
Statement of compliance
The Company applies International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). These unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements required by IFRS as issued by IASB and interpretations issued by IFRIC.

New accounting pronouncements

None of these are expected to have a significant effect on the Financial Statements of the Company.
The Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting (revised in 2018) has been updated to expand on the existing Conceptual Framework by focusing on the elements of financial statements, recognition and derecognition, measurement, and presentation and disclosure. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2020. These new standards and changes did not have any material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Amendments to IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements and IAS 8 – Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors has been updated. The definition of “material” is being clarified for purpose of improving consistency and application of the concept where applicable. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2020. This new standard and changes did not have any material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
3. Advances Receivable
On January 15, 2020, the Company advanced $50,000 to Venex Capital (“Venex”), a Company controlled by one of Graycliff’s former directors, in the form of an unsecured demand loan bearing interest at 5% per annum. On February 13, 2020, the Company advanced a further $25,000 to Venex in the form of an unsecured demand loan bearing interest at 5% per annum. On June 30, 2020, Venex repaid $25,000 of the initial $50,000 demand loan, resulting in a balance of $50,000 plus accrued interest of $1,612 included in Advances Receivable at quarterend.

7. Subsequent Events
Since December 31, 2019, the outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus, specifically identified as ‘COVID-19”, has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which include the implementation of travel bans, self-imposing quarantine period and social distancing, have caused material disruption to businesses globally resulting in an economic slowdown. Global equity markets have experienced significant volatility and weakness. Governments and central banks have reacted with significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize economic conditions. The duration and impact of the COVID-19 outbreak is unknown currently, as is the efficacy of the government and central bank interventions. It is not possible to reliably estimate the length and severity of these developments and the impact on the financial results and condition of the Corporation and its operating subsidiaries in future period.
On July 13, 2020, July 21, 2020 and July 29, 2020, Venex repaid a further $7,500, $22,500 and $20,000, respectively, of the demand loan receivable (see Note 3) leaving only accrued interest of $1,774 outstanding.
On August 4, 2020, the company’s shares were approved for listing and began trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange.
