TRES-OR RESOURCES LTD. NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS UNAUDITED – PREPARED BY MANAGEMENT FOR THE PERIOD ENDED MAY 31, 2021 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)
1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
Tres-Or Resources Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia and is in the business of exploration and evaluation of mineral properties. To date, the Company has not earned significant revenues and is considered to be in the exploration stage.
The Company’s registered office address is Suite 1500 – 1055 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC, V6E 4N7, Canada. Further contact information is available on the Company’s website at: www.tres-or.com.
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated, which is the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiary.
The Company is in the process of exploring its exploration and evaluation assets and has not yet determined whether the properties contain reserves that are economically recoverable. The recoverability of the amounts shown for exploration and evaluation assets and related deferred exploration costs are dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to complete the development of those reserves and upon future profitable production.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared using accounting policies applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business as they fall due for the foreseeable future. The Company has a working capital deficiency at May 31, 2021 of $177,785 and a deficit of $16,737,046. The Company has not generated revenue from operations; additional financing will be required in the foreseeable future to fund the Company’s established business plan. These circumstances comprise a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt as to the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The Company will continue to pursue opportunities to raise additional capital through equity markets and/or related party loans to fund its exploration and operating activities; however, there is no assurance of the success or sufficiency of these initiatives. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon it securing the necessary working capital and exploration requirements and eventually to generate positive cash flows either from operations or additional financing. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported expenses and statement of financial position classifications that would be necessary if the going concern assumption was inappropriate, and these adjustments could be material.
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, have adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, potentially leading to an economic downturn. It is not possible for the Company to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on the Company’s business or results of operations at this time.
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments that have been measured at fair value.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)
Basis of Consolidation
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company, which is incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Temagami-Diamonds Ltd. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Significant Accounting Estimates and Judgments
The preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions 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 estimates. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements include estimates which, by their nature, are uncertain. The impact of such estimates is 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 future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. These estimates are based on historical experience, current and future economic conditions and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Critical accounting estimates
Significant assumptions about the future and other sources of estimation uncertainty that management has made at the financial position reporting date, that 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:
-
i. whether or not an impairment has occurred in its exploration and evaluation assets;
-
ii. the inputs used in the accounting for share-based payments expense; and
-
iii. the inputs used in the accounting for finders’ warrants and compensation options in share capital and equity reserves.
Critical accounting judgments
Examples of significant judgments, apart from those involving estimation, include:
-
the accounting policies for exploration and evaluation assets; and
-
classification of financial instruments.
Significant accounting policies
The accounting policies applied by the Company in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as those applied by the Company as at and for the year ended February 28, 2021.

Title to exploration and evaluation assets involves 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 exploration and evaluation assets. The Company has investigated title to all of its exploration and evaluation assets and, to the best of its knowledge, title to all of its assets are in good standing.

4. EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS (Cont’d)
a) Fontana and Duvay Gold Projects, Quebec, Canada
Fontana Gold Project
On November 9, 2011, the Company entered into an option agreement (the “Option”) with Globex Mining Enterprises Inc. (“Globex”) to acquire the interests of certain mineral claims in Quebec, being a 75% interest in 16 claims and a 100% interest in a further 7 claims, collectively known as the Fontana Gold Project (“Fontana”). The interests of Globex in Fontana are subject to a 3.0% Gross Metals Royalty (“GMR”) and the 16 claims held by Globex as to 75% are also subject to a 15% Net Profits Interest (“NPI”).
In order to exercise the option the Company is required to pay Globex $400,000 (paid) and is required to purchase the NPI from Globex for a total of $1,200,000, payable in increments over 84 months ($50,000 paid).
During the year ended February 28, 2015, the Company and Globex made certain amendments to the Fontana Property Option Agreement dated November 9, 2011 which are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The amended payment schedule under the Fontana NPI acquisition agreement terms is as follows:
-
November 30, 2014 - $50,000 cash payments (paid)
-
• November 30, 2015 - $50,000 cash payments (paid) • November 30, 2016 - $50,000 cash payments (paid) • November 30, 2017 - $50,000 cash payments (paid) • November 30, 2018 - $50,000 cash payments (paid) • November 30, 2019 - $100,000 cash payments • November 30, 2020 - $200,000 cash payments • November 30, 2021 - $200,000 cash payments*
-
These terms have been amended under the New Royalty Agreement
During the year ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2013, the Company purchased additional Duvay Gold Project claims. Certain of the claims have various underlying royalties.
In April 2012, the Company entered into an option agreement with Merrex Gold Inc. (“Merrex”), wherein the Company was granted an option to acquire Merrex’s 25% interest in 16 mineral claims in Duverny Township, Quebec, forming part of the Fontana Gold Project. The claims are subject to a 15% NPI in favour of Globex. In order to exercise the option, the Company paid to Merrex a total of $300,000 as at February 28, 2014 and was required to make the final payment of $125,000 during fiscal 2016 to complete the acquisition of Merrex’s 25% interest in the claims.
During the year ended February 29, 2020, the Company entered into a definitive option agreement (the "Option Agreement") with Kiboko Exploration Inc. ("Kiboko") to advance the Company's Fontana Gold Project. Under the terms of the Option Agreement, Kiboko can earn an initial 65% interest in the Fontana Gold Project, subject to underlying royalties, within a four-year period from the closing of the Transaction (July 9, 2019) under the following conditions:
-
i) Making total cash payments or subscribing for securities of the Company totaling $1,000,000 ($5,000 paid and $195,000 shares subscribed during 2020; $300,000 shares subscribed during 2021); and
-
ii) Complete a technical report prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 that establishes a mineral resource estimate of no less than 1,000,000 ounces of gold of Inferred classification or higher, or incur scheduled expenditures per the Option Agreement on the Fontana Gold Project’s claims totaling $4,000,000 of which $250,000 is a firm commitment (satisfied).

Fontana Gold Project (Cont’d)
Upon earning a 65% interest, Kiboko will have the option to form a joint venture with the Company, or acquire an additional 25% interest, for an aggregate 90% interest. The additional 25% interest may be acquired by incurring additional exploration expenditures of $2,000,000 within a 6 year period from the date of the closing or by completing a preliminary economic assessment and a supporting technical report prepared in accordance with NI 43-101.
Upon earning a 90% interest, Kiboko will have the option to form a joint venture with the Company. In the event of a formation of a joint venture, each party to the joint venture will be responsible for its pro rata share of project expenditures. Should any party to the joint venture fall below a 10% participating interest, their interest shall convert to a 1% Net Smelter Returns ("NSR") royalty on the first 1,000,000 ounces of gold production. The remaining participating party shall also have a customary 90-day right-of-first-refusal ("ROFR") on the sale of any portion of the NSR and the right to purchase one-half of the NSR for $1,000,000.
As part of the Option Agreement, Globex has agreed that its royalty agreements, as they pertain to certain claims that comprise the Fontana Gold Project, will be extinguished and replaced with a single 2% NSR royalty agreement for the entire Fontana Gold Project (the "New Royalty Agreement"). The New Royalty Agreement provides for a customary 90-day ROFR on the sale of any portion of the NSR in favour of the Company and Kiboko. The New Royalty Agreement will also provide for a customary option to buyout onehalf of the 2% NSR for $2,000,000 at any time prior to commercial production.
In addition, the Company and Kiboko have both agreed to recognize and confirm an additional 1.8% NSR on the Chenier claims (the "Chenier Family NSR") under the condition that Globex's right to purchase this royalty at any time for $360,000 be extended to the Company and Kiboko. The Company and Kiboko have been granted a customary 90-day ROFR on any potential sale of the Chenier Family NSR.
With respect to payments due to Globex, the current payments schedule will be extinguished and restated as follows:
| On or about the closing of the Transaction On or before January 1, 2021 On or before January 1, 2022 |
$100,000 (i) 200,000 (paid) 200,000 $500,000 |
|---|---|
- (i) On November 28, 2019, the Company entered into an amending agreement whereby the parties agreed the payment would be made in two equal instalments of $50,000; one instalment on or before November 30, 2019 (paid) and a second instalment being due on January 30, 2020. On January 30, 2020, the Company and Globex entered into a second amending agreement where the second instalment will be satisfied by making payments in cash and shares. Under the second amending agreement, the Company will make a cash payment of $25,000 on or before March 30, 2020 (paid), and issue 400,000 common shares of the Company to Globex (issued at a fair value of $28,000).
Duvay Gold Project
On May 23, 2010, the Company signed an option agreement to earn up to a 100% interest in the Duvay property in Quebec which comprises 4 contiguous claims in Duverny Township. The 4 claim property is subject to a GMR of 1.5% (where gold is US$800 per ounce or less) and 2% (where gold is greater than US$800 per ounce). As part of the 2019 Kiboko Option Agreement, Globex replaced its underlying royalty with a 2% NSR royalty agreement for Duvay (the "New Royalty Agreement").

a) Fontana and Duvay Gold Projects, Quebec, Canada (Cont’d)
Duvay Gold Project (Cont’d)
During the year ended February 28, 2013, the Company earned a 65% interest in the Duvay property. The Company can earn a further 15% interest for a total 80% interest by incurring $4,000,000 in exploration expenditures. The Company has the right to acquire the remaining 20% interest by effecting a merger, amalgamation or other form of business combination with the optionor, or the Company can purchase any or all of the 20% interest by paying the sum of $1,000,000 for each 1% interest in the property to be purchased.
The Company has a 100% interest in additional claims known as the Duvay Nord and East Mac Sud properties that form part of the Duvay Gold Project. The optionor retains a 2.0% net smelter return (“NSR”) and the Company has the right to purchase 1.0% of the NSR for $1,000,000 and retains the first right of refusal to purchase the remaining 1.0% NSR.
During the year ended February 29, 2016, the Company and Secova Metals Corp. (“Secova”) executed an option agreement to option up to a 90% interest in the Duvay Gold Project.
In November 2018, the Company gave Secova notice of termination of the option agreements on the basis that Secova failed to incur expenditures required to exercise the option within the time prescribed under the option agreement. Further, there remains $183,795 of outstanding indebtedness of Secova to the Company for expenditures incurred on behalf of Secova and interest income. During the year ended February 29, 2020, the Company recorded an allowance for doubtful account relating to this indebtedness due to uncertainty in collectability.
b) Diamond Projects
The Company owns a 100% interest in certain mineral claims including the Guigues Kimberlite claims, located in the Témiscamingue region of southwestern Quebec. In 2003, Tres-Or paid $133,920, completed $171,200 of exploration expenditures and issued 280,000 common shares with a value of $70,000 to earn its interest in certain of these claims including the Guigues Kimberlite. The vendors retain a 2.0% NSR. The Company may purchase 1% of the NSR for $1,000,000 at any time prior to commercial production of any mineral discovered on the claims and also retains the First Right of Refusal to buy-back the remaining 1.0% NSR. In addition, the Company agreed to deliver 100,000 common shares one day prior to the commencement of commercial production subject to regulatory approval.
The Company holds 2 mining licences in Sharpe and Savard townships, Ontario covering the Lapointe Kimberlite.

9.
MANAGEMENT OF CAPITAL
The Company’s capital structure consists of items in 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 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. The Company invests all capital that is surplus to its immediate operational needs in short-term, highly-liquid, high-grade financial instruments. There were no changes to the Company’s approach to capital management during the period. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. The Company does not currently have adequate sources of capital to complete its exploration plan and ultimately the development of its business, and will need to raise adequate capital by obtaining equity financing through private placement or debt financing.
10. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company is exposed to various financial instrument risks and assesses the impact and likelihood of this exposure. These risks include liquidity, credit, currency, interest rate, and price risks. Where material, these risks are reviewed and monitored by the Board of Directors.

10. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Cont’d)
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations associated with its financial liabilities. The Company has historically relied upon equity financings to satisfy its capital requirements and will continue to depend heavily upon equity capital to finance its activities. There can be no assurance the Company will be able to obtain required financing in the future on acceptable terms. The Company anticipates it will need additional capital in the future to finance ongoing exploration of its properties, such capital to be derived from the exercise of outstanding stock options and/or the completion of other equity financings. The Company has limited financial resources, has no source of operating income and has no assurance that additional funding will be available to it for future exploration and development of its projects, although the Company has been successful in the past in financing its activities through the sale of equity securities. The ability of the Company to arrange additional financing in the future will depend, in part, on the prevailing capital market conditions and exploration success. In recent years, the securities markets in Canada has experienced wide fluctuations in price which have not necessarily been related to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. There can be no assurance that continual fluctuations in price will not occur. Any quoted market for the common shares may be subject to market trends generally, notwithstanding any potential success of the Company in creating revenue, cash flows or earnings.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of potential loss to the Company if the counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its liquid financial assets including cash, marketable securities and receivables. The Company limits exposure to credit risk on liquid financial assets through maintaining its cash with high-credit quality financial institutions.
The Company’s cash is held with major Canadian based financial institutions.
Receivables mainly consist of sales tax refunds due from the governments of Canada.
Currency risk
The Company operates mainly in Canada. The Company mitigates its exposure to foreign currency risk by minimizing the amount of funds in currencies other than the Canadian dollar. The Company does not undertake currency hedging activities but continuously monitors its exposure to foreign exchange risk to determine if any mitigation strategies warrant consideration.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. Cash is generally not exposed to interest rate risk because of its short-term maturity. The loan payable does not bear interest and is therefore not subject to interest rate risk.
Price Risk
The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to commodity and equity prices. Equity price risk is defined as the potential adverse impact on the Company’s earnings due to movements in individual equity prices or general movements in the level of the stock market. Commodity price risk is defined as the potential adverse impact on earnings and economic value due to commodity price movements and volatilities. The Company’s investment in marketable securities is classified as FVTOCI. The Company closely monitors its marketable securities, stock market movements and commodity prices of precious metals, individual equity movements and the stock market to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.

10. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Cont’d)
Fair Value
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, marketable securities, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, loan payable and due to related parties. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying values due to their short term to maturity. Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data.
The fair value of cash and marketable securities are based on level 1 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.
