Mirasol Resources Ltd.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements For the Nine Months Ended March 31, 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Funds, except where indicated)

1. Nature of Business

Mirasol Resources Ltd. (“Mirasol” or the “Company”) is incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada. The Company’s corporate registered and records office is located at 400 – 725 Granville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia and the head office is located at 1150-355 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia.

Mirasol engages in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties, principally located in Chile and Argentina, with the objective of identifying mineralized deposits economically worthy of subsequent development, mining or sale.

The business of mining and exploration involves a high degree of risk and there can be no assurance that current exploration programs will result in profitable mining operations. The Company has no source of revenue and has significant cash requirements to meet its administrative overhead and maintain its exploration and evaluation assets. The recovery of the Company’s exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete the development of these properties, and future profitable production or proceeds from disposition of exploration and evaluation assets. While the Company has been successful in the past with its financing efforts, there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so in the future.

COVID-19

In March 2020, the world health organization declared coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak, which has continued to spread, and any related adverse public health developments, has adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, potentially leading to an economic downturn. It is not possible for the company to predict the duration or magnitude of the results of the outbreak and its effects on the Company’s business or results of operations at this time.

Management estimates that the Company has sufficient working capital to maintain its operations and activities for at least the next twelve months.

2. Basis of Presentation

Statement of compliance

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 Interim Financial Reporting . They do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2019.

The Board of Directors approved the condensed consolidated interim financial statements on March 28[th] , 2020.

Basis of measurement

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis. Financial instruments classified as financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss are stated at their fair value. In addition, these condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting except for the cash flow information.

Page 7

Mirasol Resources Ltd. Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements For the Nine Months Ended March 31, 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Funds, except where indicated)

Significant Accounting Estimates and Judgments

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, profit and expenses.

The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2019.

Recent Accounting Adoption

On July 1, 2019, the Company adopted IFRS 16 – Leases (“IFRS 16”) which replaced IAS 17 Leases and IFRIC 4 – Determining Whether an Arrangement Contains a Lease. IFRS 16 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. IFRS 16 eliminates the classification of leases as either operating leases or finance leases for a lessee. Instead, all leases are treated in a similar way to finance leases applied in IAS 17. IFRS 16 does not require a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities for short-term leases (i.e. leases of 12 months or less) and leases of low-value assets.

The Company applied IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective method. Under this method, financial information will not be restated and will continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The Company will recognize lease liabilities related to its lease commitments for each of its leases. The lease liabilities will be measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the Company’s estimated incremental borrowing rate as at January 1, 2019, the date of initial application, resulting in no adjustment to the opening balance of deficit. The associated right-of-use assets will be measured at the lease liabilities amount, plus prepaid lease payments made by the Company. The Company has implemented the following accounting policies permitted under the new standard:

  • a) leases of low dollar value will continue to be expensed as incurred; and

  • b) the Company will not apply any grandfathering practical expedients.

As at July 1, 2019 the Company recognized $332,509 in right-of-use assets and $332,509 of incremental lease obligations.

The lease liabilities were discounted at a discount rate of 15% as at July 1, 2019.

New accounting policy for leases under IFRS 16

The following is the accounting policy for leases as of July 1, 2019 upon adoption of IFRS 16:

At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Company assesses whether the contract involves the use of an identified asset, whether the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset during the term of the arrangement exists, and if the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset. At inception or on reassessment of a contract that contains a lease component, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative standalone prices.

As a lessee, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which is comprised of the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any decommissioning and restoration costs, less any lease incentives received.

Page 8

Mirasol Resources Ltd.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements For the Nine Months Ended March 31, 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Funds, except where indicated)

The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the lease term, or the end of the useful life of the asset. In addition, the right-of-use asset may be reduced due to impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability.

A lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted by the interest rate implicit in the lease, or if that rate cannot be readily determined, the incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are comprised of:

  • a) fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments, less any lease incentives receivable;

  • b) variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date;

  • c) amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee;

  • d) exercise prices of purchase options if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and

  • e) payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising an option to terminate the lease.

The lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, or if there is a change in the estimate or assessment of the expected amount payable under a residual value guarantee, purchase, extension or termination option. Variable lease payments not included in the initial measurement of the lease liability are charged directly to profit or loss.

3. Short-term Investments

Short-term investments comprise cashable and non-cashable Guaranteed Investment Certificates (“GIC”) placed with major Canadian and US financial institutions. Maturity dates of these GIC’s are between three to twelve months.
