MAKARA MINING CORP. Notes to the Condensed Interim Financial Statements June 30, 2021 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) (Unaudited – Prepared by Management)
1. CORPORATE INFORMATION
The Company is a mineral property exploration company whose common shares trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”). On April 28, 2020, the Company received a receipt from the British Columbia Securities Commission for its long -form prospectus dated April 27, 2020 and commenced trading on the CSE on May 4, 2020 under the trading symbol “MAKA”.
The Company was incorporated on September 17, 2019 in British Columbia. The head office of the Company is located at 409 Granville Street, Suite 1000, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 1T2 and its registered and records office is located at 6th Floor, 905 West Pender Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 1L6.
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
(a) Statement of Compliance
These condensed interim financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), Interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) and in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
The condensed interim financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on August 30, 2021.
(b) Basis of Measurement
The 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 financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information. The condensed interim financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted.
(c) Going Concern
These 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 June 30, 2021, the Company has not achieved profitable operations, has accumulated losses of $6,310,296 since inception and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business.
There was a global pandemic outbreak of COVID-19. To date, there have been a large number of temporary business closures, quarantines and a general reduction in consumer activity in Canada. The outbreak has caused companies and various governmental bodies to impose travel, gathering and other public health restrictions. While these effects are expected to be temporary, the duration of the various disruptions to businesses locally and internationally and the related financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Similarly, the Company cannot estimate whether or to what extent this outbreak and the potential financial impact may extend. At this point, the extent to which COVID-19 will or may impact the Company is uncertain and these factors are beyond the Company’s control; however, it is possible that COVID-19 may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION – (cont’d)
(c) Going Concern – (cont’d)
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.
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 financial statements as at December 31, 2020.
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 net 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 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 requires 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 or interest therein. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.

9. 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 become due. The Company’s policy is to ensure that it will always have sufficient cash to allow it to meet its liabilities when they become due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation. The key to success in managing liquidity is the degree of certainty in the cash flow projections.
The Company monitors its cash flows to meet the Company’s normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis and its planned capital expenditures. 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 June 30, 2021 the Company had a working capital deficiency of $40,643.
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 and cash equivalents. 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.

9. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISKS – (cont’d)
Fair Values
The Company’s financial instruments include cash and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. 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).
