NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

Nature of activities

Robex Resources Inc. (the "Company") is a junior Canadian operations and exploration mining company. The Company has entered into commercial operation on its Nampala deposit, located on the Mininko permit, on January 1, 2017. In addition to its operational mining activities, the Company currently holds four exploration permits, all located in Mali, West Africa. These permits all demonstrate a favourable geology with a potential for the discovery of gold deposits. The head office's address is 437 Grande Allée Est, Québec (Quebec), G1R 2J5, Canada.

Going concern

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements attached have been prepared using International Financial Reporting Standards («IFRS») published by the International Accounting Standards Board («IASB») based on the going concern assumption, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business as they come due. In assessing whether the going concern assumption is appropriate, management takes into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but not limited to, twelve months from the end of the reporting period. Management is aware in making its assessment of material uncertainties related to events and conditions that lend a significant doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, and accordingly, the appropriateness of the use of IFRS applicable to a going concern, as described in the following paragraph. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustment to the carrying values of assets and liabilities, expenses and consolidated statement of financial position classifications that would be necessary were the going concern assumption inappropriate. These adjustments could be material.

If the Company's operations were to be interrupted due to COVID‐19 (note 4), it could have difficulty ensuring a continuous supply from its mine and making sales. As at March 31, 2020, the Company had accumulated a deficit of $2,798,245 and had working capital of $12,676,586, of which $25,261,800 was in cash, from which a dividend in the amount of $11,605,191 was paid in April 2020. Should the mine cease operations, the Company may not have sufficient working capital and liquidity to continue operations for a minimum period of twelve months.

Although the Company has taken significant measures to ensure the safety of its mine and to continue as a going concern, there can be no assurance that the Company will not be obliged to cease operations. The continuing operations of the Company will also depend on its ability to continue to raise the necessary debt financing. While management has successfully obtained financing in the past, there can be no assurance that such sources of financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company in the future.

Also, although the Company has taken steps to verify the title to mining properties 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 unregistered prior agreements and may not be in compliance with regulatory requirements.

2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

The accounting policies followed in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied in the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS and were approved by the Board of Directors for issue on May 28, 2020.

3 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The significant accounting policies are described in our annual audited consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2019.

4 - CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

The company has had to adjust some of its operating procedures to respond to the global COVID‐19 crisis and, to date, its operations have not been significantly impacted. Should the severity of the COVID‐19 outbreak increase or global containment continue, it is possible there could be negative impacts on the Company's workforce, supply chain or overall operations. As of the date of publication of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, it is not possible to reliably estimate either the length or the severity of these developments and their impact on the Company's financial results, financial situation and cash flows.

(1) The calculation of the hypothetical conversions excludes options whose effect is anti‐dilutive. Some stock options are anti‐dilutive either because their price is higher than the average price of the Company’s common shares for each of the periods presented or because the impact of the conversion of these elements on net income would result in diluted earnings per share exceeding the basic earnings per share for each of these periods. For the quarter ended March 31, 2020, no stock option is excluded in the diluted net earnings per share calculation (14,050,000 stock options for the quarter ended March 31, 2019).

21 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Measurement categories

Financial assets and financial liabilities have been classified into categories that determine their basis of measurement and, for items measured at fair value, whether changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated statement of income or in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss). These categories are: assets and liabilities at FVTPL and financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost. The following table shows the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for each of these categories:

Financial risk factors

a) Market risk

Fair value

The carrying amounts of financial assets at amortized cost approximate their fair value due to their short‐term maturity and the prevailing interest rates of these instruments, which are comparable to those of the market.

The Company considers that the carrying amount of all its financial liabilities at amortized cost in its condensed interim consolidated financial statements approximates their fair value. Current financial assets and financial liabilities are valued at their carrying amounts, which are reasonable estimates of their fair value due to their near‐term maturities. The fair value of long‐term debt has not been determined due to the related specific conditions negotiated between the Company and the third parties concerned.
