Minfocus Exploration Corp. Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements For the nine months ended November 30, 2020 Unaudited – prepared by management (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

1. Nature of operations and going concern

Minfocus Exploration Corp. (“Minfocus Exploration” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the British Columbia Business Corporations Act on May 6, 2010. The Company completed its Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) on October 19, 2010 and its shares were listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) on October 21, 2010. The Company is principally engaged in the business of exploring and developing base and precious metal mineral properties. Substantially all of the efforts of the Company are devoted to these business activities and to date the Company has not earned significant revenues. The head office of the Company is located at Suite 440 - 755 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6Z 1X6.

The business of mining and exploring for minerals involves a high degree of risk and there can be no assurance that current exploration and development programs will result in profitable mining operations. The recoverability of the carrying value of exploration and evaluation properties and the Company's continued existence is dependent upon the preservation of its interest in the underlying properties, the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the achievement of profitable operations, or the ability of the Company to raise additional financing, if necessary, or alternatively upon the Company's ability to dispose of its interests on an advantageous basis. Changes in future conditions could require material write-downs of the carrying values.

Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to the properties on which it is conducting exploration and in which it has an interest, in accordance with industry standards for the current stage of exploration of such properties, these procedures do not guarantee the Company's title. Property title may be subject to social and government licensing requirements or regulations, unregistered prior agreements, unregistered claims, indigenous claims, and non-compliance with regulatory requirements. The Company’s assets may also be subject to increases in taxes and royalties, renegotiation of contracts, currency exchange fluctuations and restrictions and political uncertainty.

These consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis of presentation, which assumes that the Company will continue operations for the foreseeable future and be able to realize the carrying value of its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.

As at November 30, 2020, the Company has not earned revenue and has an accumulated deficit of $7,270,138 (February 29, 2020 - $7,130,782), had cash of $56,219 (February 29, 2020 - $10,305) and a working capital deficit of $302,129 (February 29, 2020 - $351,761). The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing and/or achieve profitable operations in the future. Management is aware, in making its assessment, of material uncertainties related to events or conditions that cast significant doubt upon the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not reflect adjustments that would be necessary if the going concern assumption were not appropriate. These adjustments could be material.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies

(a) Statement of compliance

The consolidated interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 “Interim Financial Reporting”. This interim financial report does not include all of the information required of a full annual financial report and is intended to provide users with an update in relation to events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in financial position and performance of the Company since the end of the last annual reporting period. It is therefore recommended that this financial report be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements of the Company for the year ended February 29, 2020. However, this interim financial report provides selected significant disclosures that are required in the annual financial statements under IFRS.

Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements For the nine months ended November 30, 2020 Unaudited – prepared by management (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

(b) Basis of presentation and consolidation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for cash equivalents which are reflected at fair value as set out in the accounting policies below. In addition, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting except for cash flow information.

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly owned Canadian subsidiaries Minfocus International Inc. (“Minfocus International”) and 2244223 Ontario Inc. Subsidiaries consist of entities over which the Company is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns as well as the ability to affect those returns through the power to direct the relevant activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date control is transferred to the Company and are de-consolidated from the date control ceases. The financial statements include all the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries after eliminating inter-entity balances and transactions.

(c) Presentation and functional currency

These consolidated financial statements are presented in the Canadian dollar functional currency, the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company and its subsidiaries operate.

3. Critical judgements and estimation uncertainties

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the Company’s management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and related notes to the financial statements. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of the amount, event or actions, actual results may differ from those estimates.

The areas which require management to make significant judgments, estimates and assumptions in determining carrying values include, but are not limited to:

Going concern

Evaluation of the ability of the Company to realize its strategy for funding its future needs for working capital involves making judgements.

Capitalization of exploration and evaluation expenditures

Management has determined that exploration and evaluation expenditures incurred during the year have future economic benefits and are economically recoverable. In making this judgement, management has assessed various sources of information including but not limited to the geologic and metallurgic information, history of conversion of mineral deposits to proven and probable mineral reserves, scoping and feasibility studies, proximity of operating facilities, operating management expertise and existing permits. See Note 6 for details of capitalized exploration and evaluation expenditures.

Minfocus Exploration Corp. Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements For the nine months ended November 30, 2020 Unaudited – prepared by management (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

3. Critical judgements and estimation uncertainties (Continued)

Impairment of exploration and evaluation assets

While assessing whether any indications of impairment exist for exploration and evaluation assets, consideration is given to both external and internal sources of information. Information the Company considers include changes in the market, economic and legal environment in which the Company operates that are not within its control and affect the recoverable amount of exploration and evaluation assets. Internal sources of information include the manner in which exploration and evaluation assets are being used or are expected to be used and indications of expected economic performance of the assets. Reductions in metal price forecasts, increases in estimated future costs of production, increases in estimated future capital costs, reductions in the amount of recoverable mineral reserves and mineral resources and/or adverse current economics can result in a write-down of the carrying amounts of the Company’s exploration and evaluation assets.

Share-based payments

Management determines costs for share-based payments using market-based valuation techniques. The fair value of the market-based and performance-based non-vested share awards are determined at the date of grant using generally accepted valuation techniques. Assumptions are made and judgment used in applying valuation techniques. These assumptions and judgments include estimating the future volatility of the stock price, expected dividend yield, future employee turnover rates and future employee stock option exercise behaviors and corporate performance. Such judgments and assumptions are inherently uncertain. Changes in these assumptions affect the fair value estimates.

4. Capital management

When managing capital, the Company’s objective is to ensure the entity continues as a going concern as well as to achieve optimal returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. Management adjusts the capital structure as necessary in order to support the acquisition, exploration and development of metallic resource assets. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company's management team to sustain the future development of the business. The Company considers its capital to be equity, which comprises issued capital, equity reserve and accumulated deficit, which totalled $559,410 at November 30, 2020 (February 29, 2020 - $424,312).

The Company invests all capital not required for its immediate needs in short-term, liquid and highly rated financial instruments, such as cash and other short-term guaranteed deposits, all held with select major Canadian financial institutions.

The Company is currently attempting to identify economic base and precious metal resources with an emphasis on gold, zinc, platinum and nickel and as such, the Company is dependent on external financing to fund its activities. In order to carry out the planned acquisitions and exploration, as well as pay for administrative costs, the Company will spend its existing working capital and raise additional amounts as needed.

Management has chosen to mitigate the risk and uncertainty associated with raising additional capital in current economic conditions by:

  • (i) maintaining a liquidity cushion in order to address any potential disruptions or industry downturns; (ii) minimizing discretionary disbursements; and

  • (iii) exploring alternative sources of liquidity.

In light of the above, the Company will continue to assess new properties if the Company believes there is sufficient potential and if it has adequate financial resources to do so.

Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements For the nine months ended November 30, 2020 Unaudited – prepared by management (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

4. Capital management (Continued)

Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is appropriate.

The Company's capital management objectives, policies and processes have remained unchanged during the nine months ended November 30, 2020 and the year ended February 29, 2020.

Reclamation bonds 5,649 5,649
Financial liabilities
Other liabilities, measured at amortized cost
Trade and otherpayables $ 364,314 $342,869

Fair value hierarchy

IFRS 13 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the input to valuation techniques used to measure fair value as follows:

Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and

Level 3 – inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

As at November 30, 2020, the Company’s financial instruments are comprised of cash, amounts receivable and prepaid expenses (excluding GST), reclamation bonds and trade and other payables. The carrying value of cash and trade and other payables approximate their fair values due to the relatively short periods to maturity of these financial instruments.

Financial instruments measured at fair value on the statement of financial position are summarized in levels of fair value hierarchy as follows:

Financial risk factors

The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk (including interest rate, foreign exchange rate, and metals price risk).

Risk management is carried out by the Company's management team with guidance from the Audit Committee under policies approved by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors also provides regular guidance for overall risk management. There were no changes in the risks, objectives, policies and procedures from the previous year.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not have sufficient cash resources to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company’s liquidity and operating results may be adversely affected if the Company’s access to the capital market is hindered, whether as a result of a downturn in stock market conditions generally or related to matters specific to the Company. The Company generates cash flow primarily from its financing activities. As at November 30, 2020, the Company had a cash balance of $56,219 (February 29, 2020 - $10,305) to settle current liabilities of $364,314 (February 29, 2020 - $352,869). All of the Company's financial liabilities have contractual maturities of less than 30 days and are subject to normal trade terms. The Company regularly evaluates its cash position to ensure preservation and security of capital as well as maintenance of liquidity. The Company has no other contractual obligations other than trade and other payables. As discussed in Note 1, the Company’s ability to meet its obligations and carry out its planned exploration activities is uncertain and dependent upon the continued financial support of its shareholders and securing additional financing.

Market risk

(a) Interest rate risk

The Company has cash balances and no interest-bearing debt, other than the loans described in Note 10. The Company's current policy is to invest excess cash in guaranteed investment certificates or interest bearing accounts of select major Canadian chartered banks. The Company regularly monitors compliance to its cash management policy.

Minfocus Exploration Corp. Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements For the nine months ended November 30, 2020 Unaudited – prepared by management (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

5. Financial instruments and financial risk factors (Continued)

Market risk (Continued)

(b) Foreign currency risk

The Company's functional and reporting currency is the Canadian dollar and all expenditures are transacted in Canadian dollars. As a result, the Company’s exposure to the foreign currency risk is minimal.

(c) Commodity price risk

The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to base and precious metal prices. Commodity price risk is defined as the potential adverse impact on earnings and economic value due to price movements and volatilities. The Company closely monitors prices to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.

(d) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Credit risk for the Company is primarily associated with amounts receivable, which is comprised primarily of GST/HST receivable due from the Federal Government of Canada. The Company has no significant concentration of credit risk arising from its operations. Management believes that the credit risk concentration with respect to amounts receivable is low.

6. Interest in exploration properties and exploration and evaluation expenditures (Continued)

Coral Zinc Project, British Columbia

In January 2015, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which it had an option to earn up to an initial 60% interest in the Coral Zinc Project, a zinc project situated in northern British Columbia. The optioned claims were subject to work and payment commitments. The Company earned a 20% interest, but during the year ended February 28, 2019, the Company determined that it was not able to meet its commitment to earn the remaining 40% interest in the claims and terminated the option agreement.

In September 2018, the Company acquired an additional 36% beneficial ownership interest in the Coral Zinc Project by issuing 7,180,000 shares and 7,180,000 share purchase warrants, exercisable at $0.07 for 2 years with a fair value of $287,200. As a result, the Company now holds a 56% interest.

The Company has pledged a $10,000 GIC as security under a safekeeping agreement with the Ministry of Finance, British Columbia relating to the application for permits on the Coral Zinc Project. This amount is included in cash on the statement of financial position.

Peregrine Zinc Project, British Columbia

The Peregrine Zinc Project, located in southeastern British Columbia, comprises optioned claims supplemented by claims staked by the Company. In January 2017, the Company entered into an option earn-in agreement on the Peregrine Zinc Project,to earn a 100% interest over a period of two years by making optional staged payments totaling $10,000 cash (paid) and issuing 142,857 shares (78,571 issued during the year ended February 28, 2018 and 50,000 issued during the year ended February 28, 2019) plus the grant of a 2% net smelter returns royalty (“NSR”). The Company has the option to repurchase up to 1% of the NSR for $1,000,000 after commercial production. The Peregrine claimsremain in good standing until September 2021.

Peregrine Zinc Project Extension, British Columbia

On April 11, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire a 100% interest in a mineral claim contiguous to the Peregrine Zinc Project. Total consideration for the claim was 28,571 shares (issued May 11, 2018 with a fair value of $3,000), plus a payment of $2,500 or 50,000 shares within 3 months of approval, at the discretion of the Company (50,000 shares issued during the year ended February 28, 2019 with a fair value of $5,250). A 2.0% NSR was granted to the seller, of which $500,000 can be paid to reduce the royalty to a 1.0% NSR interest. During the year ended February 29, 2020, the Property was written-off due to the forfeiture of the Peregrine Extension mineral claim.

Round Pond Zinc Project, Newfoundland

In March 2018, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the Round Pond Zinc Project, comprising 30 claims (750 hectares), located in Western Newfoundland for total consideration of 750,000 shares (321,432 shares issued during the year ended February 28, 2019 with a fair value of $24,107 and 428,574 shares issued during the nine months ended November 30, 2020 with a fair value of $12,857) of the Company. A 2.0% NSR royalty is to be granted upon completion of all payments to earn the 100% interest, of which $1.5 million can be paid to reduce the royalty to a 0.75% NSR interest. The Company staked an additional 33 contiguous claims to the Round Pond Zinc Project, extending the property to its present 1,575 ha size. .
