Notes to the Financial Statements For the three and six months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020 (Unaudited - Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

SIXTY NORTH GOLD MINING LTD.

1. Nature and Continuance of Operations

Sixty North Gold Mining Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated on July 7, 2016 in British Columbia under the laws of the Canada Business Corporations Act. On November 9, 2017, the Company became registered as an extra-territorial corporation under part XXI of the Business Corporations Act of the Northwest Territories. The Company's registered office is located at 3200-650 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC V6B 4P7. The Company's shares are listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol "SXTY". The Company also trades on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol "2F4" and on the OTC Pink Sheet Market in the United States under the symbol “SXNTF”.

The Company's principal business activities include the acquisition and exploration of mineral property assets. The Company entered into a mineral property earn-in agreement with New Discovery Mines ("NDM") in 2016. The Company has advanced funds towards the earn-in (see Note 4 - Exploration and Evaluation Properties).

Recovery of the carrying value of the Company's investment in the Mon Property is dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable reserves, obtaining the necessary funding to complete exploration and development, and the attainment of future profitable production. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time and the uncertainties cast significant doubt upon the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

These condensed interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared on a going-concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. If the going-concern assumptions were not appropriate for these financial statements, then adjustments may be necessary to the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses and the classifications used on the statement of financial position.

The Company will require further funding to continue as a going concern.

As at April 30, 2021, the Company had a deficit of $3,143,807 (October 31, 2020 - $2,825,482) and has not generated revenue. As at April 30, 2021, the Company has cash in the amount of $182,227 (October 31, 2020 - $291,688). The Company has raised funds through private and public equity issuances to fund the project. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient funding to continue exploration and development on the Mon Property. These condensed interim financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak, which has continued to spread, and any related adverse public health developments, has adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, potentially leading to an economic downturn. The pandemic has not had a drastic impact on the Company’s ability to carry out its business operations. Management continues to monitor the situation.

2. Statement of Compliance and Basis of Presentation

(a) Statement of Compliance

These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"); specifically, International Accounting Standard 34, for Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee (“IFRIC”) for all periods presented. These financial statements do not include all the information and disclosure required for full annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited annual financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2020.

These financial statements were authorized for issue in accordance with a resolution from the Board of Directors on June 23, 2021.

(b) Basis of Presentation

The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis and have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information. The functional and presentation currency of the Company is the Canadian dollar.

3. Significant Accounting Policies

Accounting Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of these condensed interim financial statements requires management to make judgements and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual outcomes could differ from these judgements and estimates. The financial statements include judgements and estimates, which, by their nature, are uncertain. The impacts of such judgements and estimates are pervasive throughout the financial statements, and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period, in which the estimate is revised, and may affect both current and future periods.

Significant assumptions about the future and other sources of judgements and estimates that management has made at the statement of financial position date, which could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, in the event that actual results differ from assumptions made, relate to, but are not limited to, the following:

SIXTY NORTH GOLD MINING LTD.

3. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Accounting Estimates and Assumptions (continued)

Exploration and Evaluation Assets

The application of the Company's accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditures requires judgement in determining whether it is likely that future economic benefits will flow to the Company, which may be based on assumptions about future events or circumstances. Estimates and assumptions made may change if new information becomes available. If, after an expenditure is capitalized, information becomes available suggesting that the recovery of expenditure is unlikely, the amount capitalized is written off in profit or loss in the period the new information becomes available.

Site Closure and Reclamation Provisions

The Company assesses its reclamation provision at each reporting date or when new material information becomes available. Exploration, development, and mining activities are subject to various laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. In general, these laws and regulations are continually changing and the Company has made, and intends to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations. Accounting for reclamation obligations requires management to make estimates of the future costs that the Company will incur to complete the reclamation work required to comply with existing laws and regulations at each location. Actual costs incurred may differ from those amounts estimated. The Company's exploration work to date has resulted in no significant site disturbance and therefore the Company's reclamation provision is limited to the amount posted as a reclamation bond.

Also, future changes to environmental laws and regulations could increase the extent of reclamation and remediation work required to be performed by the Company. Increases in future costs could materially impact the amounts charged to operations for reclamation and remediation. The provision represents management's best estimate of the present value of the future reclamation and remediation obligation. The actual future expenditures may differ from the amounts currently provided.

Title to Mineral Properties

Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, these procedures do not guarantee the Company's title. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.

SIXTY NORTH GOLD MINING LTD.

3. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Share-Based Payments

Management uses valuation techniques in measuring the fair value of stock options granted. The fair value is determined using the Black Scholes option pricing model which requires management to make certain estimates, judgements, and assumptions in relation to the expected life of the share options, expected volatility, expected risk-free rate, and expected forfeiture rate. Changes to these assumptions for any stock options granted could have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

Deferred Income Taxes

Judgement is required to determine which types of arrangements are considered to be a tax on income in contrast to an operating cost. Judgement is also required in determining whether deferred tax liabilities are recognized in the statement of financial position. Deferred tax assets, including those potentially arising from un-utilized tax losses, require management to assess the likelihood that the Company will generate sufficient taxable income in future periods, in order to recognize deferred tax assets. Assumptions about the generation of future taxable income depend on management's estimates of future operations and cash flows. These estimates of future taxable income are based on forecast cash flows from operations (which are impacted by production and sales volumes, commodity prices, reserves, operating costs, closure and rehabilitation costs, capital expenditure, and other capital management transactions) and judgement about the application of existing tax laws in each jurisdiction. To the extent that future cash flows and taxable income differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the Company to realize deferred tax assets or offset these against any deferred tax liabilities recorded at the reporting date could be impacted.

Going Concern

The Company’s management has made an assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and is satisfied that the Company has the resources to continue in business for the foreseeable future. The factors considered by management are disclosed in Note 1.

Notes to the Financial Statements For the three and six months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020 (Unaudited - Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

4. Exploration and Evaluation Assets (continued)

  • (a) The Mon Property (continued)

Pursuant to the amendment dated April 24, 2020, the Company paid an extension fee of $150,000 to NDM during the year ended October 31, 2020.

In order to earn an 80% interest in the Property, the Company has committed to incurring cumulative exploration expenditures of at least $6,000,000 on the Property as follows:

  • i) On or before September 30, 2020, the Company shall deposit an additional $1,500,000 to NDM to be spent towards exploration expenditures on the Property as agreed on the last approved budget; however, if substantial progress on a new equity financing for the Property is made by that time, the parties in good faith shall agree to extend this date to October 31, 2020 ($1,326,284 paid);

  • ii) On or before April 30, 2021, the Company shall deposit to NDM the balance of funds to make the Company’s total exploration expenditures in the Property equal to $6,000,000; however, if substantial progress on a new equity financing for the Property is made by that time, the parties in good faith shall agree to extend this date to May 31, 2021.

The following summarizes the Company’s exploration expenditures that qualify towards $6,000,000 commitment:

April 30, October 31,
2021 2020
Advanced towards or spent on exploration costs $ 3,449,920 $ 3,210,433
Reclamation deposits(Note 11) 419,540 116,213
$3,869,460 $3,326,646

In the event that the Company earns its 80% interest in the Property, it will purchase the remaining 20% carried interest held by NDM by the issuance to NDM of the number of common shares of the Company equal to 25% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company at that time. NDM will also receive additional common shares of the Company to maintain its twenty-five percent interest of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company, until the total expenditures specifically for the exploration and development of the A-Zone on the Property reaches a total of $6,000,000. NDM is a private company that is 50% owned and controlled by the President and CEO of the Company.

In addition, the Property is subject to a minimum annual advanced royalty payment to the Royalty Holder of US$20,000, which commenced in January 2017, and is payable on or before January 30th of each year. A deduction of 20% of all advance royalty payments may be made from the first year’s NSR payments, and thereafter the balance of the advanced royalty payments may be deducted from future NSR payments. As of April 30, 2021, the Company has paid US$100,000 ($130,980) in advance royalty payments.

11. Financial Instruments and Risks

Fair Values and Classification

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and accounts payable. Financial instruments are classified into one of the following categories: FVTPL, FVTOCI, or amortized cost. The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments are classified into the following categories:

Financial Instrument Category April 30,2021 October 31,2020
Cash FVTPL $ 182,227 $ 291,688
Accounts payable Amortized cost $ 152,309 $ 44,949

The Company measures certain financial instruments and other items at fair value. To determine the fair value, the Company uses the fair value hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use to value an asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from independent sources. Unobservable inputs are inputs based on assumptions about the factors market participants would use to value an asset or liability. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:

For the three and six months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020 (Unaudited - Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

11. Financial Instruments and Risks (continued)

Fair Values and Classification (continued)

Level 1 – Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

  • Level 2 – Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

  • Level 3 – Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Changes in the observability of valuation inputs may result in a reclassification of levels for certain securities within the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of cash is measured on the statement of financial position using level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of accounts payable and due to contractor approximate their respective carrying values because of their immediate or short-term nature.

Financial instrument risk exposure

The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, including credit risk, currency risk and liquidity risk.

(a) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company’s cash. The carrying amount of the financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure.

The Company limits its exposure to credit risk on cash by placing these financial instruments with reputable and major financial institutions.

(b) Currency risk

The Company's expenses are denominated in Canadian dollars. The Company's corporate office is based in Canada and current exposure to rate fluctuations is minimal. The Company does not have significant foreign currency denominated monetary liabilities.

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is associated with the inability to meet obligations as they become due and is minimized by maintaining sufficient cash and deposit balances to cover operating and exploration costs over a reasonable future period.
