SOLIDUSGOLD INC.
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020 AND 2019
(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)
1. CORPORATE INFORMATION AND NATURE OF CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
SolidusGold Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on April 13, 2011 under the laws of British Columbia under the name of “Mantra Capital Inc.”. On September 4, 2014 the Company changed its name to SolidusGold Inc. and commenced trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”) under the new symbol of “SDC”. The address of the Company’s corporate office and its principal place of business is 10[th] Floor, 595 Howe Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 2T5, Canada.
At December 31, 2020, the Company had not yet determined whether its property contains ore reserves that are economically recoverable. The recoverability of amounts shown for exploration and evaluation assets 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 or proceeds from the disposition of the resource property. 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 interim condensed 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 these financial statements.
During March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak and any related adverse public health developments, has adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, leading to an economic downturn. The impact on the Company is not currently determinable, but management continues to monitor the situation.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a) Statement of compliance
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), including IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting. For these purposes, IFRS comprise the standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”).
The accounting policies applied in these interim condensed financial statements are consistent with those applied in the preparation of, and disclosed in, the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2020.
b) Basis of presentation
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the assets and operations of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Solidus Holdings Inc. (“Solidus Holdings”) and SolidusGold US Inc. (“Solidus US”). Solidus Holdings was incorporated on October 30, 2014 under the British Columbia Business Corporations Act. Solidus US was incorporated on July 15, 2014 in Nevada, USA. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, with the exception of financial instruments which are measured at fair value, as explained in the accounting policies set out below. In addition, these financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue its operations for a reasonable period of time.

Honeymoon Property
The Honeymoon Property is an early stage gold-silver-copper property located on the west side of Adams Lake, British Columbia and is comprised of 4 claim blocks for a total of 3,415 hectares.
On May 27, 2015, the Company and the Optionor mutually cancelled the previous agreement and concurrently entered into a purchase and sale agreement for an undivided 100% right, title and interest in and to the Honeymoon Property. Pursuant to the terms of the sale and purchase agreement the Company agreed to pay $3,500 (paid) and issue 70,000 common shares (issued) as consideration for the property.

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).
Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis were presented on the Company’s statements of financial position are as follows:

8. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FINANCIAL RISK (continued)
Financial risk management objectives and policies (continued)
(i) Currency risk
The Company has operations in the United States which are transacted into U.S. dollars. Accordingly, the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk with respect to these transactions. The Company has not undertaken hedging activities to mitigate this risk.
The Company does not have any significant foreign currency denominated monetary liabilities.
(ii) Interest rate risk
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on the variable rate of interest earned on bank deposits. The fair value interest rate risk on bank deposits is insignificant as the deposits are short ‐ term.
The Company has not entered into any derivative instruments to manage interest rate fluctuations.
( iii) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations.
(iv) Liquidity risk
In the management of liquidity risk of the Company, the Company maintains a balance between continuity of funding and the flexibility through the use of borrowings. Management closely monitors the liquidity position and expects to have adequate sources of funding to finance the Company’s projects and operations. As at December 31, 2020, the Company had working capital surplus of $287,490. As at December 31, 2020, the Company had cash and short-term investment of $535,645 to settle accounts payable of $263,530 which fall due for payment within twelve months of the financial position date.
9. BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER SHARE
The calculation of basic and diluted loss per share for the periods ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 was based on the loss attributable to common shareholders of $99,739 (2019 – $154,023) and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding of 57,266,213 (2019 – 55,731,865). Stock options of 2,905,000 outstanding at December 31, 2020 were not included in the diluted loss per share calculation as the effect is anti-dilutive.
