PANTERA SILVER CORP. Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements For the six months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022 (Expressed in Canadian dollars - Unaudited)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

Pantera Silver Corp. (formerly Red Oak Mining Corp.) (“The Company”) is incorporated in the Province of British Columbia (extra-provincially registered in the Province of Alberta). The Company’s registered and record office is located at Pacific Centre 400-725 Granville St, Vancouver, BC V7Y 1G5.

At November 30, 2023, the Company had a working capital deficit of $191,266 and had not yet achieved profitable operations, has accumulated losses of $36,705,475 since its inception and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which casts substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing including support from related parties to meet its ongoing levels of corporate overhead, and discharge its liabilities as they come due. At this time the Company is managing its financial resources to minimize expenditures while it determines its future direction. These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business.

Although the Company has been successful in the past in obtaining financing, there is no assurance that it will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that such financing will be on terms advantageous to the Company. Accordingly, these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments, if any that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and, therefore, be required to realize its assets and liquidate its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts which may differ from those shown in these financial statements. These adjustments could be material.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Statement of compliance

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and Interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee.

The notes presented in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements include only significant events and transactions occurring since the Company’s last fiscal year end and they do not include all of the information required in the Company’s most recent annual consolidated financial statements. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of application as the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2023, which were prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by IASB. There have been no changes in judgment or estimates from those disclosed in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2023.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on January 29, 2024.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)

Basis of measurement

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments, which are measured at fair value, as explained in the accounting policies set out below. All financial information in these financial statements is presented in Canadian dollars which is the functional currency of the Company. The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently by the Company.

Use of estimates and judgments

The Company makes estimates and assumptions about the future that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual experience may differ from these estimates and assumptions. The effect of a change in an accounting estimate is recognized prospectively by including it in comprehensive income in the period of change, if the change affects that period only, or in the period of the change and future periods, if the change affects both. Information about critical accounting estimates and judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant risk of causing material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities recognized in the financial statements are discussed below:

Going concern assumption

The continued use of the going concern assumption is based on the Company’s judgments regarding the availability, timing, and costs of obtaining financing. The use of the going concern assumption is also based on the Company’s judgments regarding the continued support and patience of related parties and third-party creditors. In applying the going concern assumption, the Company has not taken into account the uncertainty surrounding the timing of receipt of the restricted cash and the uncertainty surrounding the timing of payments of accounts and loans payable in determining the fair values of its financial instruments.

Provision for environmental rehabilitation

Provisions for environmental rehabilitation are based on the Company’s best estimate of the probable outflow to complete reclamation work. The final costs of the currently recognized environmental rehabilitation provision may be higher or lower than currently provided for.

Impairment of evaluation and exploration assets

The assessment of exploration and evaluation assets requires judgment to determine whether indicators of impairment exist including factors such as the period for which the Company has the right to explore, expected renewals of exploration rights, whether substantive expenditures on further exploration and evaluation of resource properties are budgeted and evaluation of the results of exploration and evaluation activities up to the reporting date. Management assessed impairment indicators for the Company’s exploration and evaluation assets and concluded that no impairment indicators as of November 30, 2023.

3. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS, RISK MAMAGEMENT AND CAPITAL DISCLOSURES

(a) Fair value of financial instruments

IFRS requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. IFRS establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value.

PANTERA SILVER CORP. Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements For the six months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022 (Expressed in Canadian dollars - Unaudited)

3. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS, RISK MAMAGEMENT AND CAPITAL DISCLOSURES (continued)

(a) Fair value of financial instruments (continued)

A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. IFRS prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Valuations based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Valuations based on directly or indirectly observable inputs in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, other than Level 1 prices such as quoted interest or currency exchange rates; and

Level 3: Valuations based on significant inputs that are not derived from observable market data, such as discounted cash flow methodologies based on internal cash flow forecasts.

Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
November 30, 2023
Cash $ 45,019 $ - $ - $ 45,019
Restricted cash 19,609 - - 19,609
$ 64,628 $ - $ - $ 64,628
May 31, 2023
Cash $ 95,564 $ - $ - $ 95,564
Restricted cash 19,113 - - 19,113
$ 114,677 $ - $ - $ 114,677

The fair value of cash and restricted cash are determined based on Level 1 inputs which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. As at November 30, 2023, the Company believes that the carrying values of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and due to related parties approximate the fair values because of their short term to maturity.

  • (b) Risk management

Credit Risk

The Company is exposed to credit risk with respect to its cash. To minimize this risk, cash is placed with major Canadian financial institutions.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk due to the relatively short-term maturity of its monetary assets and liabilities.

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 does not have operating cash flow and therefore has relied primarily on equity financings and loans from related parties to meet its capital requirements. As at November 30, 2023, the Company has a working capital deficit of $191,266. The Company will need to obtain additional financing to meet the obligations as they come due.

3. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS, RISK MAMAGEMENT AND CAPITAL DISCLOSURES (continued)

(b) Risk management (continued)

Commodity Price Risk

The Company’s ability to raise capital to find exploration or development activities is subject to risk associated with fluctuations in the market prices of resource commodities.

(c) Capital management

The Company manages its capital, consisting of share and working capital, in a manner consistent with the risk characteristic of the assets it holds. All sources of financing are analyzed by management and approved by the board of directors.

The Company’s objectives when managing capital is to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is meeting its objective of managing capital through preparing short-term and long-term cash flow analysis to ensure an adequate amount of liquidity. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital restrictions.

There were no changes in the Company's approach to capital management during the year. The Company is not subject to any external restrictions on its capital.

5. EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS

Provost Property, Alberta

In February 2003, the Company acquired a 100% interest in an oil well (16-28) and an 18% interest in a shut-in gas well (02/13-17) located in the Provost area of Alberta.

During the year ended May 31, 2010, the Company abandoned the oil well and determined that it would be required to perform additional reclamation work. As at November 30, 2023, the estimate to perform the reclamation work is $54,000 (2023 - $54,000) based on quotations obtained by third party consultants. The Company previously deposited $16,000 with the Alberta Energy Resources Conservation Board (“AECB”), which amount is shown as restricted cash on the statement of financial position. The $16,000 deposit plus interest will be refunded once the AECB is satisfied that the Company has performed all necessary decommissioning activities.

The balance of restricted cash after accumulated interest as at November 30, 2023 is $19,609 (May 31, 2023 - $19,113).

During the period ended November 30, 2023, the Company has spent $nil (May 31, 2023 - $nil) on reclamation work.

5. EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS (Continued)

Nuevo Taxco Silver-Gold Project, Mexico

On November 12, 2020, the Company entered into a property acquisition agreement with Impact Silver Corp. (“Impact Silver”) whereby the Company may earn a 100% interest in the Nuevo Taxco Silver-Gold Project (the “Property”) located approximately 80 km south west of Mexico City and west of the municipality of Tetipac within the Pregones Silver- Gold District (the “Transaction”).

On October 28, 2021 and amended on Oct 30, 2023, the Company entered into an amending agreement to amend the payment and exploration expenditures.

Under the agreement, the Company may earn a 100% interest in the Property by making certain staged cash payments, issuing common shares in the capital of the Company to Impact Silver and making exploration expenditures over a 3-year period as follows:

  • i. $1,000 in cash was paid upon execution of the letter of intent in respect of the Transaction (paid);

  • ii. $49,000 in cash (paid) and 500,000 common shares upon TSXV approval of the Transaction and closing of the Financing (the “Closing Date”) (issued);

  • iii. $100,000 in cash (paid) and 1,000,000 common shares on or before March 20, 2022 (issued);

  • iv. 1,500,000 common shares on or before October 31, 2023 (in lieu of cash) (issuance pending TSXV approval);

  • v. 2,000,0000 common shares on or before October 20, 2024 or at the option of the Vendor for $150,000 and 500,000 common shares;

  • vi. $200,000 in exploration expenditures on or before March 20, 2022 (completed);

  • vii. $400,000 in exploration expenditures on or before March 20, 2023 (waived); and

  • viii. $800,000 in exploration expenditures on or before October 30, 2025.

The Company paid a finder’s fee with regards to the property acquisition equal to 10% of the value consideration for year one of the Agreement satisfied in common shares of the Company at the same price per share as the Transaction, being 100,000 common shares with a value of $10,000.

Impact Silver will retain a 1% net smelter return royalty with the Company retaining the right to acquire 100% of the royalty for a cash payment of $1,000,000.

During the year ended May 31, 2023, the Company did not meet the requirements of the agreement and therefore assessed the carrying value and impaired the property to $1.
