CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

August 31, 2023

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

Independent Auditor's Report

To the Shareholders of Tocvan Ventures Corp.

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Tocvan Ventures Corp. (the “Company”), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at August 31, 2023 and 2022, and the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at August 31, 2023 and 2022, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

We draw attention to Note 1 to the financial statements, which indicates that the Company has an accumulated deficit of $6,769,646 as at August 31, 2023. As stated in Note 1, these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters, that in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

In addition to the matter described in the Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern section, we have determined the matter described below to be a key audit matter to be communicated in our report.

KEY AUDIT MATTER

HOW THE MATTER WAS ADDRESSED IN THE AUDIT

Financial Asset – Fair Value Through Profit and Loss

We draw attention to Note 4 to the financial statements. As at August 31, 2023, the Company held financial assets through profit and loss with a fair value of $1,355,240.

We considered this a key audit matter due to:

  • the complexity required in determining the valuation method used and the fair value calculation recorded by the Company; and

  • the significant management estimates and judgments required to determine the fair value of the financial asset.

Auditing the fair value estimates required a high degree of subjectivity in applying audit procedures and in evaluating the results of those procedures. This resulted in an increased extent of audit effort, including the involvement of valuation specialist.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included the following, among others:

  • Inspected the equity swap agreements and evaluated the appropriateness of the accounting position adopted;

  • With the assistance of a valuation specialist,

  • Assessed the appropriateness of the valuation methodologies used;

  • Evaluated the reasonableness of the valuation assumptions applied;

  • Tested the mathematical accuracy of the valuation calculations performed in determining the fair values;

  • Developed a range of independent estimates; and

  • Evaluated the reasonableness of the forecast made by management.

Other Information

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

We obtained Management’s Discussion and Analysis prior to the date of this auditor’s report. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.

  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  • Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about

the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor's report is Steven Reichert.

TOCVAN VENTURES CORP. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) For the year ended August 31, 2023

1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

Tocvan Ventures Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated on May 23, 2018, under the Alberta Business Corporations Act. On March 1, 2019, the Company’s shares started trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) under the symbol “TOC”.

The Company’s head office address is Suite 820 – 1130 West Pender St., Vancouver, British Columbia V6E 4A4 Canada. The registered and records office address is Suite 1150, 707 - 7th Avenue S.W., Calgary, Alberta T2P 3H6 Canada.

On September 15, 2020, the Company incorporated, under the laws of Mexico, a wholly-owned subsidiary, Burgencio S.A. de C.V. (“Burgencio”). Burgencio’s office address is Blvd. Morelos No, 639,Col. Bachoco, C.P. 83148, Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico.

The Company is engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. At August 31, 2023, the Company had not yet determined whether its properties contain reserves that are economically recoverable. The recoverability of amounts shown for exploration and evaluation assets and related deferred exploration costs is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, confirmation of the Company's interest in the underlying mineral claims, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to complete the development, and upon future profitable production from the exploration and evaluation assets or proceeds from the disposition of the exploration and evaluation asset.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared with the going concern assumption, which assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and, accordingly will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations. At August 31, 2023, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $6,769,646 (2022 – $5,009,158) and is expected to incur further losses, and required additional equity financing to continue developing its business and to meet its obligations. While the Company has been successful at raising additional equity financing in the past, there is no guarantee that it will continue to do so in the future, which results in a material uncertainty that casts significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company's ability to continue its operations and to realize its assets at their carrying values is dependent upon obtaining additional financing and generating revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs. These consolidated financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments which would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. These adjustments could be material.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a) Statement of compliance and basis of presentation

Basis of Preparation

These consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting policies consistent with the International Financial Reporting Standards (”IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and Interpretation of the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee (“IFRIC”).

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis. In addition, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting except for cash flow information.

The consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated, the reporting currency of the Company.

These consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on December 29, 2023.

5

TOCVAN VENTURES CORP. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) For the year ended August 31, 2023

Basis of consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Burgencio. The financial statements of Burgencio are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commenced until the date that control ceases. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of the subsidiary to bring its accounting policies in-line with those used by the Company.

The functional currency of Burgencio is the Canadian dollar, which is determined to be the currency of the primary economic environment in which Burgencio operates.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis. In addition, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting except for cash flow information.

b) Use of estimates, assumptions and judgments

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of expenses during the reporting year. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to provisions for restoration and environmental obligations and contingent liabilities, share-based compensation, deferred taxes, and the valuation and remeasurement of the financing transactions (Note 4).

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the Company to make judgments, apart from those involving estimates, in applying accounting policies. The most significant judgments applying to the Company’s consolidated financial statements include:

  • 1) the classification/allocation of expenses as exploration and evaluation expenditures or operating expenses; 2) the determination that the Company will continue as a going concern for the next years;

  • 3) the determination whether there have been any events or changes in circumstances that indicate the impairment of its exploration and evaluation assets; and

  • 4) classification of financial instruments issued in the financing transactions as liabilities or equity (Note 4).

c) Exploration and evaluation expenditures

Exploration and evaluation expenditures include the costs of acquiring licenses, costs associated with exploration and evaluation activity, and the fair value (at acquisition date) of exploration and evaluation assets acquired in a business combination. Costs incurred before the Company has obtained the legal rights to explore an area are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred once the Company has obtained the legal rights to explore an area are capitalized.

Government tax credits received are recorded as a reduction to the cumulative costs incurred and capitalized on the related property.

From time-to-time, the Company may acquire or dispose of a mineral property interest pursuant to the terms of an option agreement. As such options are exercisable entirely at the discretion of the optionee, the amounts payable or receivable are not recorded at the time of the agreement. Option payments are recorded as property costs or recoveries when the payments are made or received.

Exploration and evaluation assets are tested for impairment if facts or circumstances indicate that impairment exists.

6

TOCVAN VENTURES CORP. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) For the year ended August 31, 2023

Examples of such facts and circumstances are as follows:

  • the period for which the Company has the right to explore in the specific area has expired during the period or will expire in the near future, and is not expected to be renewed;

  • substantive expenditure on further exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area is neither budgeted nor planned;

  • exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area have not led to the discovery of commercially viable quantities of mineral resources and the entity has decided to discontinue such activities; and

  • sufficient data exist to indicate that, although development in the specific area is likely to proceed, the carrying amount of the exploration and evaluation asset is unlikely to be recovered in full from successful development or by sale.

Once the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the extraction of mineral resources in an area of interest are demonstrable, exploration and evaluation assets attributable to that area of interest are first tested for impairment and then reclassified to mining property and development assets within property, plant and equipment.

Recoverability of the carrying amount of any exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on successful development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively, sale of the respective areas of interest.

Although the Company has taken steps that it considers adequate to verify title to exploration and evaluation assets which it has an interest in, these procedures do not guarantee the Company’s title.

d) Income taxes

Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognized for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities to the extent that it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future. In addition, deferred tax is not recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.

A deferred tax asset is recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

e) Impairment

The carrying amounts of the Company’s non-financial assets, other than deferred tax assets if any, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.

7

TOCVAN VENTURES CORP. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) For the year ended August 31, 2023

For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (the “cash-generating unit” or “CGU”). The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell.

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre- tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or its CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss.

Impairment losses recognized in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

f) Provision for closure and reclamation

The Company recognizes liabilities for statutory, contractual or other legal obligations related to the retirement of its exploration and evaluation assets and its tangible long-lived assets when such obligations are incurred, if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. These obligations are measured initially at fair value and the resulting costs are capitalized to the carrying value of the related asset. In subsequent periods, the liability is adjusted for any changes in the amount or timing and for the discounting of the underlying future cash flows. The capitalized asset retirement cost is amortized to operations over the life of the asset. Management has determined that there was no provision required for closure and reclamation as at August 31, 2023.

g) Share-based payment transactions

Share-based payments to employees are measured at the fair value of the instruments issued and amortized over the vesting periods. Share-based payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received. The corresponding amount is recorded to the share-based payment reserve. The fair value of options is determined using the Black Scholes Option pricing model. The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that the amount recognized for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest.

h) Basic and diluted loss per share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The computation of the diluted earnings per share assumes the conversion, exercise or contingent issuance of securities only when such conversion, exercise or issuance would have a dilutive effect on the earnings per share. The dilutive effect of convertible securities is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the “if converted” method. The dilutive effect of outstanding options and warrants and their equivalents is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method. The company has no dilutive instruments.

i) Share issue costs

Professional, consulting, regulatory and other costs directly attributable to financing transactions are recorded as deferred financing costs until the financing transactions are completed, if the completion of the transaction is considered likely; otherwise they are expensed as incurred. Share issue costs are charged to share capital when the

related shares are issued. Deferred financing costs related to financing transactions that are not completed are charged to operations.

j) Financial instruments

Classification

The Company classifies its financial instruments in the following categories: at fair value through profit and loss (“FVTPL”), at fair value through other comprehensive income/(loss) (“FVTOCI”), or at amortized cost. The Company determines the classification of financial assets at initial recognition. The classification of debt instruments is driven by the Company’s business model for managing the financial assets and their contractual cash flow characteristics. Equity instruments that are held for trading are classified as FVTPL. Financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost, unless they are required to be measured at FVTPL (such as instruments held for trading or derivatives) or if the Company has opted to measure them at FVTPL.

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, amounts receivable, marketable securities, accounts payable and accrued liabilities which are all classified at amortized cost, and financial asset, debenture payable, warrants payable and dividends payable, which are all classified at FVTPL.

Measurement

Financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost

Financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost are initially recognized at fair value plus or minus transaction costs, respectively, and subsequently carried at amortized cost less any impairment.

Financial assets and liabilities at FVTPL

Financial assets and liabilities carried at FVTPL are initially recorded at fair value and transaction costs are expensed in the statements of net (loss)/income. Realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the financial assets and liabilities held at FVTPL are included in the statements of net income/(loss) in the period in which they arise.

Impairment of financial assets at amortized cost

The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets that are measured at amortized cost. At each reporting date, the Company measures the loss allowance for the financial asset at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition. If at the reporting date, the financial asset has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the loss allowance for the financial asset at an amount equal to the twelve month expected credit losses. The Company shall recognize in the statements of net (loss) income, as an impairment gain or loss, the amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognized.

Derecognition

The Company derecognizes financial assets only when the contractual rights to cash flows from the financial assets expire, or when it transfers the financial assets and substantially all of the associated risks and rewards of ownership to another entity. Gains and losses on derecognition are generally recognized in the statements of net (loss) income.

k) Leases

The Company does not have a right-of-use asset or lease liability as the Company does not have leases of over one year.

3. EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS

Title to exploration and evaluation assets

Title to exploration and evaluation (“E&E”) asset interests involve certain inherent risks due to the difficulties of determining the validity of certain claims as well as the potential for problems arising from the frequently ambiguous conveyancing history characteristic of many mineral claims. The Company has investigated title to its exploration and evaluation asset and, to the best of its knowledge, title to all of its interests are in good standing. However, this should not be construed as a guarantee of title. The concessions may be subject to prior claims, agreements or transfers and rights of ownership may be affected by undetected defects.

Total $ 1,355,240 $ 2,252,532

June 28, 2022, Equity Swap Agreement with Sorbie Bornholm LP

On June 28, 2022, the Company entered into a financing transaction with Sorbie Bornholm LP (“Sorbie”) whereby the Company agreed to issue 3,200,000 units (the “Sorbie Unit”) and 2,809 convertible notes with a face value of $1,000 per note (the “Sorbie Notes”) in exchange for 24 monthly cash payments (the “Monthly Settlements”) that were measured against a benchmark price of $1.10 per share (the “Benchmark”) with a set number of shares totaling $5,125,000 at Benchmark (the “Sorbie Transaction”) (Note 10).

The actual Monthly Settlements are determined based on a volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) for 20 trading days prior to the Monthly Settlements. If the measured share price exceeds the Benchmark for the Monthly Settlements, the Company will receive more than 100% of the expected Monthly Settlements. However, should the share price be below the Benchmark, the Company will receive less than 100% of the Monthly Settlements.

Each Sorbie Unit consists of one common share and one warrant entitling Sorbie to purchase one additional common share at a price of $1.20 until June 28, 2025. The Sorbie Notes mature on June 28, 2025, can be converted, at discretion of the note holder, into 1,220 common shares per Sorbie Note. The Sorbie Notes pay noncompounding interest at 1% per year, which is payable annually in common shares calculated at $0.82 per share. In connection with the Sorbie Notes, the Company issued 1,713,490 detachable warrants that entitle Sorbie to purchase one additional common share at a price of $1.30 until June 28, 2025, and an additional 1,713,490 detachable warrants that entitle Sorbie to purchase one additional common share at a price of $1.40 until June 28, 2025.

To determine the fair value of the Monthly Settlements the Company used a Monte Carlo simulation.

Based on the terms of the Monthly Settlements, the Company calculated the expected future VWAP share price at each Monthly Settlement, multiplied by the number of predetermined shares per the payment schedule and then discounted using the risk‐free rate to determine the present value of the future cash flows. The following assumptions were used:

(1) At June 28, 2022, the first Monthly Settlement was valued based on the 454,545 shares, the following 22 Monthly Settlements were valued based on 182,806 shares, with the final Monthly Settlement valued based on 182,804 shares.

To determine the allocation of the fair value of the Monthly Settlements, the Company analyzed Sorbie Units and Sorbie Notes under guidance available under IFRS 9 Financial Instruments . IFRS requires that the terms of a convertible instrument are analyzed and each component separately accounted for according to the definitions of a financial liability and equity. The Company determined that Sorbie Notes and the warrants that were issued as part of the Sorbie Notes and Sorbie Units were liability, therefore the fair values of future Monthly Settlements were allocated first to the Sorbie Notes, then to the warrants with the remaining value allocated to the shares issued as part of the Sorbie Units.

The following table summarizes the initial allocation of the future Monthly Settlements at June 28, 2022, and their subsequent revaluation to the fair values at August 31, 2023 and 2022:

Total $ 3,828,756 $ 3,153,081 $ 2,579,094

(1) As at August 31, 2023, the Company recorded $4,925 in accrued interest payable on the Sorbie Notes (August 31, 2022 - $4,925) and had issued 59,147 common shares for the settlement of one-year accrued interest of $28,090.

Since Sorbie Notes can be settled in shares of the Company at the election of Sorbie at any time, they were determined to be current liability and were valued based on the fair market value of the Company’s shares on the date of the transaction, being $0.82, and subsequently revalued using the market value of the Company’s shares on August 31, 2023, being $0.57 (2022 - $0.56). At August 31, 2023, the Company recognized $34,270 as unrealized loss (2022 – $891,015 gain) on revaluation of the Sorbie Notes to their fair market value.

The warrants issued as part of the Sorbie Transaction were valued based on the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model using the following assumptions:

TOCVAN VENTURES CORP. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) For the year ended August 31, 2023

As at August 31, 2023, the Company has recorded a total of $1,587,685 in Monthly Settlements (2022 – $344,636) representing 13 Monthly Settlements, of which $1,243,049 was received during the year ended August 31, 2023, the 14[th ] Monthly Settlement of $94,639 was recorded as receivable as it was received subsequent to August 31, 2023. The difference between each Monthly Settlement’s fair value as at the initial recognition on June 28, 2022, and the actual Monthly Settlement received is recorded through profit and loss as realized gain or loss for the year. For the year ended August 31, 2023, the Company recorded realized loss on settlement of $580,298 (2022 – $63,679).

At August 31, 2023, the fair value of the remaining ten Monthly Settlements was determined to be $1,040,585 (2022 – $2,252,532, being the fair value of 22 Monthly Settlements to be received). The difference between the initial valuation of the Monthly Settlements and their value as at the reporting date, is recorded in the profit and loss statement as unrealized gain or loss on the financial asset. As at August 31, 2023, the Company recognized $591,328 as unrealized gain (2022 – $1,053,198 loss) on the financial asset.

April 5, 2023, Equity Swap Agreement with Sorbie Bornholm LP

On April 5, 2023, Tocvan entered into a financing transaction (the “April Sorbie Transaction”) with Sorbie whereby the Company agreed to issue 1,102,941 units (the “April Sorbie Units”) for a total consideration of $600,000. The units consisted of one common share priced at $0.544 and one-half share purchase warrant entitling the holder to purchase one additional common share at a price of $0.68 until April 5, 2026. In addition, the Company settled the financing fee of $36,000 by issuing 66,177 common shares and 33,088 share purchase warrants with terms similar to April Sorbie Units. A total of 1,169,118 common shares and 584,559 share purchase warrants were issued to Sorbie for the financing arrangement entered on April 5, 2023.

Furthermore, on April 5, 2023, the Company entered into an equity swap arrangement under a Sharing Agreement with Sorbie to allow settlement provisions for $600,000 to be paid out within a year in 12 monthly tranches of $50,000 with equivalent number of settlement shares at 68,965 per month totaling 827,586 shares (the 12[th ] month number of shares to be at 68,971). The monthly amounts to be paid out depend on how the Company’s share price varies against a benchmark price (“Benchmark”) set at $0.725. The monthly share price is calculated by using the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Company’s share price within 20-trading days prior to settlement date multiplied by the number of settlement shares. If the VWAP of the Company’s price is less than the Benchmark price, the Company will receive less than 100% of the monthly cash settlement of $50,000 on a pro rata basis and if the VWAP of the Company’s price is more than the Benchmark price, the Company will receive more than 100% of the monthly cash settlement of $50,000. The number of settlement shares will not fluctuate and will remain constant at each settlement date.

To determine initial and subsequent measurements of the fair value of the April Sorbie Settlements at April 5, 2023, and at each reporting period, the Company used a Monte Carlo Simulation.

Based on the terms of the April Sorbie Settlements, the Company calculated the expected future VWAP of the Company’s share price at each April Sorbie Settlement date, multiplied by the number of predetermined shares per the payment schedule and then discounted using the risk‐free rate to determine the present value of the future cash flows. The following assumptions were used:

TOCVAN VENTURES CORP. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) For the year ended August 31, 2023

Based on the above parameters, the Company determined the fair value of the remaining cash flows expected from April Sorbie Transaction at April 5, 2023, to be $604,357 and at August 31, 2023, to be $314,655.

To determine the allocation of the fair value of the April Sorbie Settlements, the Company analyzed April Sorbie Units under guidance available under IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IAS 32. The Company determined that April Sorbie Warrants were liability, therefore the fair values of future Monthly Settlements were allocated first to the April Sorbie Warrants with the remaining value allocated to the shares issued as part of the April Sorbie Units.

The following table illustrates the initial allocation of future April Sorbie Settlements at April 5, 2023, and the subsequent revaluation of the warrants:

10. CONVERTIBLE NOTES

Each Sorbie Note has a coupon rate of 1% per annum, non-compounding, and is payable in Common Shares at a conversion price of $0.82 per Common Share at maturity date.

The Sorbie Notes can be converted to shares at discretion of Sorbie, provided that notice in writing setting out the number of Sorbie Notes to be converted and the proposed date for conversion is given to the Company at least five business days prior to the proposed date for conversion. In addition, the Sorbie Notes cannot be redeemed prior to the maturity date, when they automatically convert to Common Shares of the Company.

The Company determined that, since the consideration receivable for Sorbie Notes cannot be readily determined, and due to convertibility of the Sorbie Notes at the discretion of Sorbie at any time after the close of the Sorbie Transaction and before their maturity date, the fair value of these notes should be recorded as current liability with any changes in the fair value being recognized as profit or loss.

On July 18, 2023, the Company settled interest accrued on the Sorbie Notes as at June 28, 2023, being $28,090, by issuing 59,137 Common Shares.

12. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Company considers its capital to consist of shareholders’ equity. The Company’s objective when managing capital is to maintain adequate levels of funding to support the development of its businesses and maintain the necessary corporate and administrative functions to facilitate these activities. This is done primarily through debt and equity financing. Future financings are dependent on market conditions and there can be no assurance the Company will be able to raise funds in the future. There were no changes to the Company’s approach to capital management during the year. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

13. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

a. Fair Value

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, amounts receivable, marketable securities, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and due to related parties classified at amortized cost. The fair values of these financial instruments approximate their carrying values because of their current nature. The financial asset, debenture payable, warrants payable and dividends payable, are all classified at FVTPL. Financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit and loss are revalued at each reporting date based on the three levels of a fair value hierarchy.

The following table summarizes the carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments:

(iv) Sorbie Notes, warrants payable issued to Sorbie as a result of Sorbie Transactions (Notes 4, 9, and 10), and dividend payable (Note 8)

b. Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with the counterparty’s inability to fulfill its payment obligations. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, which is held with a high credit quality financial institution, Monthly Settlements receivable as a result of Sorbie Transactions, and to a smaller extent GST receivable from the Government of Canada.

c. 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 manages liquidity risk through the management of its capital structure and financial leverage as outlined above.

The Company monitors its ability to meet its short-term exploration and administrative expenditures by raising additional funds through share issuances when required. The Sorbie Notes mature on June 28, 2025 (Note 4) however, Sorbie may convert to shares at any time. The warrants payable can only be settled in shares. The Company’s other financial liabilities have contractual maturities of 30 days or are due on demand and are subject to normal trade terms.

d. Foreign Exchange Risk

Foreign exchange risk is the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because they are denominated in currencies that differ from the respective functional currency. The Company has financial risk arising from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates as the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, does own foreign currency denominated financial assets and liabilities.

e. Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that arises from fluctuating interest rates. The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk.

f. Price risk

The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to commodity prices. Commodity price risk is defined as the potential adverse impact on earnings and economic value due to commodity price movements and volatilities. The Company closely monitors the commodity prices of precious metals and the stock market to determine the

appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company. The Company has exposure to equity price risk since Sorbie Monthly Settlements are affected by the movement of the Company’s share price. Marketable securities (Cascade Shares) and dividends payable, however, will have no price risk impact as the securities have been distributed to its shareholders before the fiscal year-end.
