VISCOUNT MINING CORP. NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS February 28, 2020 (Unaudited)

1. Nature and Continuance of Operations

Viscount Mining Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the British Columbia Business Corporations Act on October 26, 2011. The Company’s registered office is located at 409 - 221 W. Esplanade, North Vancouver BC, V7M 3J3. The Company is listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (TSXV”) and trades under the symbol “VML”.

The Company is an exploration stage company, and its principal business activity is natural resource exploration, focusing on resources located in the states of Nevada and Colorado in the USA. Mining and exploration involve a high degree of risk and there can be no assurance that current exploration programs will result in profitable mining operations. The Company has no source of revenue and has significant cash requirements to conduct its planned exploration, meet its administrative overhead and maintain its resource interests.

The Company had cash of $3,613,156 at February 28, 2021 (August 31, 2020 - $4,264,224) and working capital of $3,537,663 (August 31, 2020 - $3,853,725), but management cannot provide assurance that the Company will ultimately achieve profitable operations or become cash flow positive, or raise additional debt and/or equity capital. For the six-month period ended February 28,2021, the Company had no source of operating revenues, incurred an operating loss of $728,867 (2020 - $565,140) and, as at that date, had an accumulated deficit of $11,382,742 (August 31, 2020 deficit of - $11,851,250).

Management has assessed that this working capital is sufficient for the Company to continue as a going concern beyond one year. If the going concern assumption were not appropriate for these consolidated financial statements it would be necessary to restate the Company’s assets and liabilities on a liquidation basis.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. A situation that continues at the time of these statements being published. 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. 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 ability to raise funds.

The recoverability of the Company’s investment in and expenditures on resource properties is dependent on several factors, including the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete the development of these properties, and future profitable production or proceeds from disposition of resource interests.

Nevada Properties , described collectively as the Cherry Creek Project, is focused on exploration in the immediate vicinity of an area commonly known as the Cherry Creek Mining District, located approximately 50 miles north of the town of Ely, in White Pine County, Nevada.

In January 2021 Viscount entered into an exploration earn-in agreement with a wholly owned subsidiary of Centerra Gold Inc. to earn up to a 70% interest in the Cherry Creek Project.

Under terms of the Agreement Centerra has the right to acquire a 70% interest in the Property through (a) making annual payments totaling $250,000 USD over a 4 year period, and (b) spending $8,000,000 USD on mineral exploration costs on the Property over 4 years. If Centerra’s option vests, then Viscount and Centerra will enter into a joint venture agreement:

Centerra would hold an initial interest of 70% in the Joint Venture, including the Property and any properties in the Area of Interest, and Viscount would hold an initial interest of 30% in the Joint Venture, including the Property and any properties in the Area of Interest. To maintain their respective percentage interest, each Party would then, upon provision of a reasonable amount of notice, contribute on a pro rata basis to further exploration and any potential development or mining on the Property and/or the properties within the Area of Interest.

The Parties would, in the Joint Venture Agreement, establish a management committee for which the representation of each Party will, at a minimum, be in proportion to its percentage interest in the Joint Venture. This management committee will propose and determine the exploration and potential development of mining on the Property and/or the properties within the Area of Interest.

Initially, Viscount will be the project manager for the exploration program, with Centerra providing funding in advance. Any unexpended funding is represented as deferred recoveries.

On August 13, 2014, the Company entered into an option agreement (the “Silver Cliff Agreement”) with David C. and Debra J. Knight Living Trust (the “Owner”), whereby the Owner has agreed to grant an option to the Company to acquire an undivided 100% interest in the Silver Cliff project (the “Silver Cliff Property”), effective September 15, 2014.
