NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022

(expressed in thousands of United States dollars, except share and per share amounts or otherwise stated)

1. Corporate Information and Nature of Operations

Monument Mining Limited (“Monument” or “the Company”) is a Vancouver based gold producer, engaged in the operation of gold mines, acquisition, exploration and development of precious metals with a focus on gold. The Company is incorporated and domiciled under the Canada Business Corporations Act and listed on the Toronto Stock Venture Exchange (“TSX-V: MMY”) and Frankfurt Stock Exchange (“FSE: D7Q1”) with the head office located at 1100 Melville Street, Suite 1580, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6E 4A6.

The Company’s 100% owned Selinsing Gold Mine is located in Pahang State, Malaysia, and has been in commercial production since September 2010. The Company’s exploration and development mineral assets are 100% owned through its subsidiaries, including the Selinsing gold portfolio in Pahang State, Malaysia comprised of the Selinsing, Buffalo Reef, Felda Land and Famehub projects (together “Selinsing”), and Murchison gold portfolio in Western Australia, Australia (“WA”) comprised of the Burnakura, Gabanintha and 20% interests in Tuckanarra project.

The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, comprising the Company and its subsidiaries, were authorized for issue in accordance with a resolution of the directors on May 26, 2023. These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of United States (US) dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars except per share amounts or where otherwise indicated.

2. Basis of Preparation

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, “Interim Financial Reporting”. The accounting policies applied in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those used in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2022. These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) for annual consolidated financial statements and accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2022, as some disclosures from the annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost method except for certain derivatives, which are measured at fair value and were prepared using accounting policies consistent with those in the annual audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended June 30, 2022.

3. Significant Accounting Policies

The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies adopted in the Company’s most recent annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2022 and the additional policies noted below. Any changes in accounting policies are expected to be reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as at and for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023.

a) Inventories

Inventories include supplies, stockpiled ore, work in progress and finished goods. Gold bullion, gold concentrate and ore stockpiles are physically measured or estimated and valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and costs of selling final product. Cost is determined by the weighted average method, except for supplies inventory by first-in-first-out method and comprises direct purchase costs and an appropriate portion of fixed and variable overhead costs, including depreciation and amortization, incurred in converting materials into finished goods. Separately identifiable costs of conversion are specifically allocated.

Supplies inventory consists of consumables used in mining and processing operations and are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value using the first-in-first-out method. Supplies used in the production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost. Any provision for obsolescence is determined by reference to specific items of stock. A regular review is undertaken to determine the extent of any provision.

Stockpiled ore represents ore that has been extracted from the mine that is ready for further processing. Stockpiled ore is measured by estimating the number of tonnes added and removed from the stockpile and is verified based on periodic surveys. Stockpiled ore is valued based on the current mining costs incurred up to the point of stockpiling the ore using the weighted average cost method. Costs include mining, mine-site overhead and associated depreciation and depletion. Costs are removed from stockpiled ore and added to work in process inventory when stockpiled ore is crushed based on the average cost per tonne stockpiled.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022

(expressed in thousands of United States dollars, except share and per share amounts or otherwise stated)

Work in progress (“WIP”) represents the process during which the ore are fed into the processing plant from the stockpile and being converted to a saleable product of gold bullion or gold concentrate (together the “final products”). The WIP is recorded at weighted average cost, including costs of ore reclaimed to the plant from stockpiles, crushing, carbon in leaching (“CIL”), smelting and refinery to produce gold bullion, or including cost of all front-end process and flotation cost except for CIL and refinery to produce gold concentrate. The associated depreciation and depletion costs are also included. Costs are relocated from work in process to final product on the weighted average cost basis when the last stage of production completed.

Finished goods represent metal available for sale and are valued at the lower of weighted average production cost and net realizable value. The cost of finished goods includes gold bullion and concentrate.

b) Revenue recognition

The Company’s primary product is gold bullion (or “gold”) acceptable by LBMA (London Bullion Market Association) prior to gold concentrate production. The gold concentrate production commenced in late December 2022 when commissioning started. Silver produced is considered as by-product arising from production of gold.

Revenue relating to the sale of products is recognized when the Company satisfies the performance obligation associated with sale. Typically, this is accomplished when control over the gold bullion or gold concentrate are passed from the Company to the buyer. The indicators of the point in time where control is transferred include, but not limited to, whether the Company has a present right of collecting payment; the customer has legal title to the asset; the Company has transferred physical possession of the asset to the customer; and the customer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the products.

Revenue from gold bullion sales is recognized at spot rates, the obligation to deliver the gold is established at the value date of the sale, and the change of control is triggered simultaneously by a gold transfer order issued from the Company to transfer the gold sold to the buyers (usually traders) through the LBMA’s clearance system, where the control and significant risks and rewards of ownership of gold transferred to over to the buyers. The process would usually complete within a few days. The risk incurred by the trader of failure of performance of the Company is prevented by the contractual condition precedence of delivery under which it is made.

Revenue from the sale of gold concentrate is recognized at the point in time when it transferred control of the concentrates to the buyers, that occurs upon physical delivery, and it is initially recorded at the reporting date of production period based on the fair value of the total consideration receivable estimated subject to weight, moisture level and expected settlement gold price; which will be then adjusted at each reporting period and finally on a settlement date pursuant to each off-take contract. Smelting and treatment charges where applicable are netted against sales of gold concentrate.

Insignificant amounts of revenue generated from by-product such as silver is credited to the cost of goods sold when its percentage of revenue is less than 5% of total revenue.

c) Critical accounting estimates and judgments

The preparation of these unaudited condensed interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and knowledge of relevant factors such as expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, and subject to measurement uncertainty. Actual financial results may not equal the estimated results due to differences between estimated or anticipated events and actual events. The judgments, estimates and assumptions made in the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements were similar to those made in the preparation of the Company's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2022.

Commencement of gold concentrate production

On January 1, 2023 the sulphide gold concentrate production commenced at the Selinsing Gold Mine, subsequent to the completion of the flotation plant construction and commissioning which has converted the oxide gold processing plant to a sulphide processing plant. In the meantime, the Carbon in Leach (“CIL”) circuit ceased operation and was held for care and maintenance which can be put back to the circuit for oxide ore treatment when needed. A ramp up period of production might take three to six months leading to a full production, during which the judgement is applied to assess whether the sulphide mineral property and the upgraded sulphide processing plant are capable of operating at the level intended by management.

As a result, sulphide mineral assets including Buffalo Reef and Felda Block 7 at Selinsing Gold Mine have been transferred from exploration and evaluation property to mineral property and the depletion and amortization of the underlying mineral property,

plant and equipment has also begun (Note 7 and Note 8). The ore mined till then were transferred out of exploration and evaluation property to inventory. Any revenue generated from concentrate product will be recorded as income.

d) New and amended standards and interpretation

Adoption of new standards

The Company adopted Amendments to IAS 16 – Property, Plant and Equipment - Proceeds before Intended Use during the fiscal year 2023.

In 2020, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment - Proceeds before Intended Use, which applies to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022, whichever is earlier. These IAS 16 amendments prohibit the deduction of any net proceeds received from the sale of products produced during the commissioning and ramp-up production period against underlying mineral property, plant and equipment. The Company recognizes the proceeds from the sale of such products, and the cost of producing those products, in profit or loss.

Effective for future annual periods

In October 2022, ISAB issued Non-Current Liabilities with Covenants amendments to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements to clarify how conditions with which an entity must comply within twelve months after the reporting period affect the classification of a liability. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024.

10. Financial Instruments and Financial Risk

The Company’s financial instruments are classified and measured at amortized cost (cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade and other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities).

a) Fair value measurement

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade and other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are considered reasonable approximations of their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

The Company does not have any financial assets or financial liabilities measured at fair value subsequent to initial recognition.

b) Risk exposures and responses

The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to market risk, credit risk, and liquidity risk.

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk is comprised of three types of risk: foreign currency risk, price risk and interest rate risk.

Foreign currency risk

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk to the extent financial instruments held by the Company are not denominated in US dollars.

At the reporting date, the Company is exposed to foreign currency risk through the following assets and liabilities denominated in Malaysian ringgit (RM), Australian dollar (AUD) and Canadian dollar (CAD):

MONUMENT MINING LIMITED

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022

(expressed in thousands of United States dollars, except share and per share amounts or otherwise stated)

Based on the above net exposures as at March 31, 2023 and assuming that all other variables remain constant, a 5% depreciation or appreciation of the RM against the US dollar would result in an increase/decrease of approximately $0.31 million (March 31, 2022: $0.14 million) in the Company’s net income, a 5% depreciation or appreciation of the CAD against US dollar would result in an increase/decrease of approximately $0.02 million (March 31, 2022: increase/decrease $0.01 million) in net income and a 5% depreciation or appreciation of the AUD against the US dollar would result in a decrease/increase of approximately $0.01 million (March 31, 2022: decrease/increase $0.02 million) in net income.

Price risk

Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices other than those arising from interest rate risk or foreign currency risk. The Company has not hedged any of its commodity price risks.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. Generally, the Company’s interest income will be reduced during sustained periods of lower interest rates as higher yielding cash equivalents and short-term investments mature and the proceeds are reinvested at lower interest rates. The converse situation will have a positive impact on interest income.

To limit interest rate risk, the Company uses a restrictive investment policy. The fair value of the investments of financial instruments included in cash and cash equivalents is relatively unaffected by changes in short-term interest rates. The investments are generally held to maturity and changes in short-term interest rates do not have a material effect on the Company’s operations.

Credit risk

The Company’s credit risk on trade receivables is negligible.

The Company is exposed to concentration of credit risk with respect to cash and cash equivalents (Note 4). The maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying amounts at March 31, 2023. The amount of $1.63 million (June 30, 2022: $0.60 million) is held with a Malaysian financial institution, $0.06 million with an Australian financial institution (June 30, 2022: $0.18 million) and $8.42 million (June 30, 2022: $20.26 million) is held with Canadian financial institutions.

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 manages liquidity risk through budgeting and forecasting cash flows to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet its short-term requirements for operations, business development and other contractual obligations. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid and immediately available on demand for the Company’s use. The table below summarizes the maturity profile of the Company’s non-derivative financial liabilities as of March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022.
