All related party transactions are in the normal course of operations and have been measured at the agreed to amount, which is the amount of consideration established and agreed to by the related parties.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting policies and methods employed by the Company determine how it reports its financial condition and results of operations and may require management to make judgements or rely on assumptions about matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company's results of operations are reported using policies and methods in accordance with IFRS. In preparing condensed interim financial statements in accordance with IFRS, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses for the period. Management reviews its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using the most current information available.
10
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of condensed interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed interim financial statements and the reported revenues and expenses during this year.
Although management uses historical experience and its best knowledge of the amount, events, or actions to form the basis for judgments and estimates, actual results may differ from these estimates. The most significant accounts that require estimates as the basis for determining the stated amounts include the recoverability of exploration expenses and recognition of deferred tax amounts. Critical judgments exercised in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements are as follows:
Going concern
Management assesses the Company's ability to continue as a going concern at each reporting date, using all quantitative and qualitative information available. This assessment, by its nature, relies on estimates of future cash flows and other future events, whose subsequent changes could materially impact the validity of such an assessment.
Impairment of assets
The impairment assessment of a financial asset requires judgment. Management evaluates the duration and extent to which the fair value of an investment is less than its cost, and the financial health of and short-term business outlook for the investee, including factors such as industry and sector performance, changes in technology and operational and financing cash flow. When the fair value declines, management makes a judgment if the decline in value is other than temporary impairment to be recognized in profit or loss.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The carrying values of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values because of the relatively short-term nature of the instruments. These estimates are subjective and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumption could significantly affect the estimates.
There are three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
- Level 1: Values based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities.
- Level 2: Values based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or model inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
- Level 3: Values based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
The Company's cash is considered to be Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.
The Company is exposed in varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument-related risks. The Board of Directors approves and monitors the risk management process, inclusive of documented investment policies, counterparty limits, and controlling and reporting structures. The type of risk exposure and the way in which such exposure is managed is summarized as follows:
Foreign exchange risk
The Company's functional and reporting currency is the Canadian dollar and major purchases are transacted in Canadian dollars. As a result, the Company's exposure to foreign currency risk is minimal.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, commodity and equity prices. The Company does not have a practice of trading derivatives.
Credit risk
The Company's cash is held in a large Canadian financial institution. The Company has not experienced nor is exposed to any significant credit losses. As a result, the Company's exposure to credit risk is minimal.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. As the Company has no interest-bearing assets or liabilities, the Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk.
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 has a planning and budgeting process in place to help determine the funds required to support the Company's normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis.
The Company aims to have sufficient funds to meet its short-term business requirements, taking into account its anticipated cash flows from its ability to raise equity capital or borrowing sufficient funds and its holdings of cash and cash equivalents.
Price risk
The ability of the Company to explore its mineral property and the future profitability of the Company are directly related to the market price of precious metals. The Company monitors precious metals prices to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.
Environmental & remediation risk
Management is not aware of and does not anticipate any significant environmental exposure or risk of remediation costs or liabilities as it does not currently have any active mineral exploration operations.

RISK AND UNCERTAINTIES
Core Business
The Company's business is in the mining and exploration sector with no active operations. Significant capital investment, geological and mining personnel, management, and consultants will be required for the development of any potential mining and exploration project.
There is no certainty that any expenditures to be made by the Company as described herein will result in successful mining and exploration. There is aggressive competition within the mineral exploration and development sector with larger exploration companies developing related technology internally. As such, significant capital investment is required along with extensive other resources to develop any potential mineral claims and future mining operations, if attainable. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in obtaining required capital on acceptable terms to reach its business objectives.
Some risks the Company may be exposed to include, but are not limited to, the following:
Conflicts of Interest
The Company's directors and officers also serve as directors and/or officers in other private and public companies involved in other business ventures. Consequently, there exists the possibility for these individuals to be in a position of conflict. Any decision made by these individuals involving the Company will be made in accordance with their duties and obligations to deal fairly and in good faith with the Company and such other companies. As such, these individuals would refrain from voting on the conflicted matter and would be forced to forego potential business or conduct such business in conflict.
Negative Operating Cash Flows
As the Company is in the early development stage, it will continue to have negative operating cash flows without the development of revenue streams from its business. Positive operating cash flows require the Company to complete successful mineral exploration to first identify viable exploration targets through seismic, geographic surveying, drilling, sampling, assays, 43-101 technical report and mining operations, none of which can be assured.
Going Concern Risk
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is uncertain and dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations, obtain additional capital and receive continued support from its shareholders. Management of the Company will have to raise capital through private placements or debt financing and proposes to continue to do so through future private placements and offerings. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time.
Operating History and Expected Losses
The Company expects to make significant investments in order to develop its services, increase marketing efforts, improve its operations, and conduct research and development. As a result, start-up operating losses are expected, and such losses may be greater than anticipated, which could have a significant effect on the long-term viability of the Company.
Reliance on Joint Ventures, Partnerships, or Minority Interests
The nature of the Company's operations may require it to enter into various agreements with partners, joint venture partners, or minority interests in mineral and exploration projects.
There is no guarantee that those with whom the Company needs to deal will be successful in these joint or participating interests for mining and exploration.
Uninsured Risks
The Company may carry insurance to protect against certain risks in such amounts as it considers adequate. Risks not insured against include key person insurance as the Company heavily relies on the Company directors and officers.
Growth Management
In executing the Company's business plan for the future, there will be significant pressure on management, operations, technical, and other assets, or resources. The Company anticipates that its operating and personnel costs will increase substantially in the future when and if it is able to commence commercial operations. In order to manage its growth, the Company will have to substantially increase consultants, geological personnel, engineers, technical, human resources, and executive and administration staff to run its operations, while at the same time efficiently maintaining a large number of relationships with third parties. The Company will also have to acquire, lease, or rent a substantial amount of mining and extraction equipment. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to meet these growth objectives.
Reliance on Key Personnel, Service Provider and Advisors
The Company relies heavily on its officers and directors, along with key service providers, business advisors and consultants. The loss of their services would have a material adverse effect on the business of the Company. There can be no assurance that directors and officers, or consultants engaged by the Company will continue to provide services in the employ of, or in a consulting capacity to, the Company or that they will not set up competing businesses or accept positions with competitors.
Russia-Ukraine Conflict
In February 2022, Russian commenced a military invasion of Ukraine which generated a response in the form of strict economic sanctions from multiple countries and corporations around the world, including Canada. Although the Company does not have operations in Russia or Ukraine, the global impact of this conflict in commodity prices, foreign currency exchange rates, supply chain challenges and increased fuel prices may have adverse impacts on our costs of doing business.
