1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has major implications for all economic activity, including that of the Company. At this time, it is not possible to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on the Company’s business but believes that the COVID-19 Pandemic will likely have only a minimal impact on the Company’s activities, most notably in curtailment of travel and access to projects due to travel and social distancing restrictions. There is no material disruption to the Company’s current operations.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
- (a) Statement of compliance
These financial statements are management prepared and unaudited and are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency.
- (a) Basis of presentation
These financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments classified as financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss, which are stated at fair value. In addition, these financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.
- (c) Approval of the financial statements
These financial statements were authorized for issue by the Audit Committee and Board of Directors on January 20, 2021.
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
-
(a) Mineral property
-
(i) Exploration and evaluation
Staking costs, property option payments, and other costs associated with acquiring exploration and evaluation assets are capitalized and classified as intangible assets, whereas exploration and evaluation expenditures are recognized as expenses as they are incurred during the period. Exploration and evaluation expenditures include costs of conducting geological and geophysical surveys, equipment rental, geochemical analysis, mapping and interpretation, and costs to obtain legal rights to explore an area.
Management reviews the carrying value of capitalized exploration costs annually. The review is based on the Company’s intentions for development of the property.
Subsequent recovery of the resulting carrying value depends on successful development or sale of the project. If a project does not prove viable, all irrecoverable costs associated with the project, net of any impairment provisions, are written off.
-
(b) Financial instruments
-
(i) Financial assets
Initial recognition and measurement
6
A financial asset is measured initially at fair value plus, for an item not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue. On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured at amortized cost, measured at fair value through other comprehensive income or measured at fair value through profit or loss. The Company recognized a financial asset when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
(ii) Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. A financial liability is derecognized when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or when it expires. Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortized cost. All interest-related charges are reported in profit or loss within interest expense, if applicable. The Company’s financial liabilities include accounts payable and accrued liabilities and due to related party.
(d) Common shares
Financial instruments issued by the Company are classified as equity only to the extent that they do not meet the definition of a financial liability or financial asset. The Company's common shares are classified as equity instruments.
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
- (e) Earnings (loss) per share
The Company presents basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share data for its common shares, calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is not adjusted for the loss attributable to common shareholders or the weighted average number of common shares outstanding when the effect is anti-dilutive.
- (f) Use of estimates and judgments
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may vary from these estimates.
Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the actual results. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future years affected.
Critical Judgments
Going concern
The assessment of whether the going concern assumption is appropriate requires management to take into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but not limited to, 12 months from the end of the reporting period. The Company is aware that material uncertainties exist related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Recoverability of mineral properties
7
The application of the Company’s accounting policy for mineral properties 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. Assets or cash-generating units are evaluated at each reporting date to determine whether there are any indications of impairment. The Company considers both internal and external sources of information when making the assessment of whether there are indications of impairment for the Company’s mineral property. Management uses several criteria in its assessments of economic recoverability and probability of future economic benefit including geologic and metallurgic information, economic assessments/studies, accessible facilities and existing permits.
Significant Estimates and Assumptions
Inputs to the Black-Scholes option pricing model
The fair value of equity instruments is subject to the limitations of the Black-Scholes option pricing model, as well as other pricing models that incorporate market data and involves uncertainty in estimates used by management in the assumptions. Because option pricing models require inputs of highly subjective assumptions, including the volatility of share prices, changes in subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.
Impairment of mineral property
The carrying value of the Company’s mineral property and the likelihood of future economic recoverability of the carrying value is subject to significant management estimates and judgments. The application of the Company’s accounting policy for and determination of recoverability of the mineral property is based on assumptions about future events or circumstances. New information may change estimates and assumptions made. If information becomes available indicating that recovery of expenditures is unlikely, the amounts capitalized are impaired and recognized as a loss in the period that the new information becomes available. A change in estimate could result in the carrying amount of capitalized assets being materially different from their presented carrying costs.
- (g) Non-monetary transactions
Shares issued for consideration other than cash are valued at the fair value of assets received or services rendered. If the fair value of assets received or services rendered cannot be reliably measured, shares issued for consideration will be fair valued at the date of issuance.
- (h) Share-based compensation
The Company has a stock option plan that is described in note 5 and grants share options to acquire common shares of the Company to directors, officers, employees and consultants. Share-based payments to employees are measured at the fair value of the instruments granted. Share-based payments are measured at the fair value of the goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued as calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The offset to the recorded expense is to options or warrants reserve.
Consideration received on the exercise of stock options is recorded as share capital and the related options reserve is transferred to share capital. For those options that expire, the recorded fair value in options reserve is transferred to deficit.
4. MINERAL PROPERTY
- (a) Christa-Aura Property, British Columbia, Canada

Each unit consisted of one common share and one warrant, with each warrant entitling the holder to purchase an additional common share at $0.30 until August 3, 2021. The warrants will provide for an accelerated expiry in the event that the shares of the issuer are trading at a price of $0.50 or greater for 20 consecutive trading days. The Company issued 33,600 shares as finder’ fees with a fair value of $13,440 and paid $9,005 in legal expenses related to the issuance.

On August 28, 2018, the Company executed an escrow agreement with an escrow agent and a security holder where they have agreed to deposit 2,650,777 common shares in escrow. Under the escrow agreement, 10% of the shares were released upon completion of the IPO and 15% of the shares will be released every six months following listing. As at November 30, 2020, the Company had 1,590,466 (2019 – 2,385,699) shares held in escrow.
- (d) Stock options

During the year ended August 31, 2020, the Company issued 850,000 (2019 – nil) stock options to directors. The stock options vested fully on grant. In September 2020, the Company issued a further 450,000 stock options to advisory board members and a consultant.
5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Key management personnel include persons having the authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company as a whole.

6. RISK MANAGEMENT
- (a) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. Credit risk for the Company is associated with its cash and receivables. The Company is not exposed to significant credit risk as its cash is placed with a major Canadian financial institution.
- (b) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company is not exposed to significant liquidity risk.
- (c) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk. The Company is not exposed to significant market risk.
7. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Company does not generate cash flows from operations. The Company’s primary source of funds comes from the issuance of common shares and loans from related parties. The Company does not use other sources of financing that require fixed payments of interest and principal due to lack of cash flow from current operations and is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
The Company’s objective when managing capital is to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company did not change its approach to capital management during the quarter ended November 30, 2020.
10
The Company defines its capital as shareholders’ equity and related party loans. Capital requirements are driven by the Company’s general operations. To effectively manage the Company’s capital requirements, the Company monitors expenses and overhead to ensure costs and commitments are being paid.
8. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
The Company continues its efforts to conclude acceptable financial arrangements which would allow us to continue with our proposed acquisition transaction.
