For the three months ended April 30, 2025 and 2024
(Unaudited: expressed in Canadian dollars)
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
Orestone Mining Corp. (the "Company" or "Orestone") was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) on April 30, 2007 and its principal business activity is the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. The address of the Company's registered and head office is 19th Floor, 885 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC V6C 3H4. The Company's shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") and trade under the symbol "ORS".
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards ("IFRS") applicable to a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The continuing operations of the Company are dependent upon its ability to raise adequate financing to develop its exploration and evaluation assets, and to commence profitable operations in the future. To date, the Company has not generated any significant revenues and is considered to be in the exploration stage. These uncertainties may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Management's plan includes continuing to pursue additional sources of financing through equity offerings, seeking joint venture partners to fund exploration, monitoring exploration activity and reducing overhead costs. Should the Company be unable to realize on its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business, the net realizable value of its assets may be materially less than the amounts recorded on the consolidated financial statements of financial position. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

3. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB on a basis consistent with those followed in the Company's most recent annual financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2025.
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all note disclosures required by IFRS for annual financial statements, and therefore should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2025. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included. Operating results for the three months period ended April 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current fiscal year ending January 31, 2026.
4. EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS
Captain Property, Canada
The Company owns a 100% interest in certain mineral claims comprising the Captain Property located near Fort St. James, British Columbia. A portion of these claims are subject to a 1% net smelter return royalty on gold produced from these claims, of which 0.5% can be purchased by the Company at any time for $500,000.
As at April 30, 2025, the Company had issued a $25,900 reclamation bond (January 31, 2025 - $25,900) to the Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources of British Columbia to guarantee reclamation of the environment on the Captain Property.
Las Burras Property, Argentina
On August 30, 2024, the Company signed an option agreement with Cascadero Minerals Corp. ("Cascadero") to earn up to a 75% interest in the Las Burras-Incahuasi copper-gold-molybdenum-porphyry property located in Salta province, Argentina.
The Company has an initial three-year option to earn a 51% interest in the Las Burras property ("Option A") under the following terms:
| Date for Completion and Time Period | Cash Payment US$ | Expenditures US$ |
|---|---|---|
| 5th day after receipt of regulatory approval | $ 25,000 (Paid $33,863) | $ Nil |
| August 30, 2025 | 25,000 | 100,000 |
| August 30, 2026 | 25,000 | 500,000 |
| August 30, 2027 | 25,000 | 1,300,000 |
| TOTAL | $ 100,000 | $1,900,000 |
The Company may elect within 30 days after the Option A exercise date to earn an additional 24% interest ("Option B") by incurring expenditures of US$3 million over a two-year period. The Company, at its sole discretion, may elect to form a joint venture upon the exercise of Option A (the Company, 51%/Cascadero, 49%) or upon the exercise of Option B (the Company, 75%/Cascadero, 25%). The Company will be the operator for all exploration.
If a joint venture participant's interest is diluted to less than 10%, its interest will be converted to a net smelter return ("NSR") royalty. For the purposes of calculating the applicable NSR, a feasibility study shall include a calculation of the percentage of gold and silver comprising the gross value. For deposits where, at the time the production decision is made, the gross value of gold and silver in the ore are: (a) greater than 50%, a 1% NSR will be reserved; or (b) less than 50% in the ore, a 0.25% NSR will be reserved.

4. EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS, (Continued)
Francisca Property, Argentina
On February 4, 2025, the Company signed an option agreement with two arm's-length Argentine vendors to earn an up to 85% interest in the Francisca property for cash payments and exploration expenditures totaling US$4.2 million over seven years. After reaching certain milestones, the Company and the vendors will form a jointly owned company, after which, if any individual shareholder's interest is diluted to 5%, its interest will be converted to a 1% net smelter return royalty ("NSR"). The Company will have the right to purchase 50% of any NSR granted (0.50%) for a sum of US$1 million within five years from the granting of the corresponding NSR.

5. SHARE CAPITAL
a. Authorized
There are an unlimited number of common shares without par value.
b. Share issuance
Three months ending April 30, 2025:
There was no share issuance during the three months ended April 30, 2025.
Year ending January 31, 2025:
On May 15, 2024, the Company completed a non-brokered private placement, whereby the Company issued a total of 5,000,000 common shares at a price of $0.03 per share for gross proceeds of $150,000. Finders' fees amounting to $5,130 were paid in connection with the offering. The Company incurred additional share issue costs of $4,500.
c. Share purchase option compensation plan
The Company has adopted an incentive share option plan, which provides that the Board of Directors of the Company may from time to time, in its discretion, and in accordance with the Exchange requirements, grant to directors, officers, employees and technical consultants to the Company, non-transferable options to purchase common shares, provided that the number of common shares reserved for issuance will not exceed 10% of the common shares to be outstanding at closing. Such options will be exercisable for a period of up to 5 years from the date of grant. In connection with the foregoing, the number of common shares reserved for issuance to any individual director or officer will not exceed 5% of the issued and outstanding common shares and the number of common shares reserved for issuance to all technical consultants will not exceed 2% of the issued and outstanding common shares.
The continuity of options is as follows:
| Expiry date | Exercise price ($) | January 31, 2024 | Issued | Expired / cancelled | January 31, 2025 | Issued | Expired / cancelled | April 30, 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| June 3, 2024 | 0.15 | 915,000 | - | (915,000) | - | - | - | - |
| August 29, 2024 | 0.20 | 280,000 | - | (280,000) | - | - | - | - |
| June 8, 2025 | * | 0.12 | 1,150,000 | - | 1,150,000 | - | - | 1,150,000 |
| April 1, 2026 | 0.12 | 1,615,000 | - | - | 1,615,000 | - | - | 1,615,000 |
| Options outstanding | 3,960,000 | - | (1,195,000) | 2,765,000 | - | - | 2,765,000 | |
| Options exercisable | 3,960,000 | - | (1,195,000) | 2,765,000 | - | - | 2,765,000 | |
| Weighted average exercise price ($) | $ 0.13 | $Nil | $ 0.16 | $ 0.12 | $Nil | $Nil | $ 0.12 |
*Subsequently, these options expired unexercised.
At April 30, 2025, the weighted average remaining life of the outstanding and exercisable options is 0.58 years (January 31, 2025 – 0.83 years).
Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected price volatility. Changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, and therefore the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable measure of the fair value of the Company's share purchase options.

5. SHARE CAPITAL, (Continued)
d. Reserves
The reserves account records items recognized as share-based payments expense and other share-based payments. When stock options are exercised, the corresponding amount will be transferred to share capital. Amounts recorded for forfeited or expired unexercised options remain in the reserves account. Amounts recorded for exercised, cancelled or expired warrants remain in the reserves account.
6. LOSS PER SHARE
Basic and diluted loss per share
The calculation of basic and diluted loss per share for the three months ended April 30, 2025 was based on the loss attributable to common shareholders of $69,840 (April 30, 2024 – $26,159) and a weighted average number of common shares outstanding of 61,660,232 (April 30, 2024 – 56,660,232).
Diluted loss per share did not include the effect of 2,765,000 stock options (April 30, 2024 – 3,960,000 stock options) since they were anti-dilutive.
7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

9. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The fair value of the Company's cash, receivables and trade and other payables, due to related parties and notes payable approximate their carrying values.
The Company's financial instruments recorded at fair value require disclosure about how the fair value was determined based on significant levels of inputs described in the following hierarchy:
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions occur in sufficient frequency and value to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1. Prices in Level 2 are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 valuations are based on inputs including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value and volatility factors, which can be substantially observed or corroborated in the market place.
Level 3 – Valuations in this level are those with inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.
Cash is measured using level 1 inputs. There were no transfers between levels 1, 2 and 3.
The Company's financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, including credit risk, liquidity risk, interest risk and market risk.
(a) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to fulfil an obligation causing the other party to incur a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risks arising from its cash holdings, reclamation bonds and receivables (excluding GST). The Company manages credit risk by placing cash with major Canadian financial institutions. Management believes that credit risk related to these amounts is low.
(b) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not have sufficient funds to meet its financial obligations when they are due. To manage liquidity risk, the Company reviews additional sources of capital to continue its operations and discharge its commitments as they become due.
Historically, the Company's sole source of funding has been the issuance of equity securities for cash and cash equivalents, primarily through private placements. The Company's access to financing is always uncertain. There can be no assurance of continued access to significant equity funding. Liquidity risk is assessed as high.
(c) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that an investment's value will change due to a change in the level of interest rates. The Company's exposure to interest rate risk is minimal.

9. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS, (Continued)
(d) 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 comprises two types of risk: currency risk and price risk. The Company is not subject to currency risk as the functional currency is the Canadian dollar. The Company does not use any form of derivative or hedging instruments to reduce its foreign currency risk. The Company is not affected by price risk.
(e) Management of industry risk
The Company is engaged primarily in the mineral exploration field and manages related industry risk issues directly. The Company is potentially at risk for environmental reclamation and fluctuations in commodity based market prices associated with resource property interests. Management is of the opinion that the Company addresses environmental risk and compliance in accordance with industry standards and specific project environmental requirements.
(f) Currency risk
The Company is affected by changes in exchange rates between the Canadian Dollar and foreign currency. The Company does not invest in foreign currency contracts to mitigate the risks. The Company has net monetary assets of $833 dominated in US dollars.
10. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Company considers its capital structure to be shareholders' equity represented by assets over liabilities. The Company manages its capital structure based on the funds available to the Company, in order to support acquisition, maintenance, exploration, and development of exploration and evaluation assets.
The Board of Directors has not established any quantitative return on capital criteria for management, instead relying on the expertise of the Company's management to sustain future development of the business.
The properties in which the Company currently has interests are in the exploration stage so the Company is dependent on external financing to fund its activities. In order to carry out activities and administration, the Company will spend its existing working capital and raise additional amounts as needed.
The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital restrictions.
11. SEGMENTED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The Company operates in one industry segment, being the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral property interests. Geographic information is as follows:
