Independent Auditor’s Report

To the Shareholders of: XIMEN MINING CORP.

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Ximen Mining Corp. (“the Company”), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at June 30, 2023 and 2022 and the consolidated statements of 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.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at June 30, 2023 and 2022, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits 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 Consolidated 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 consolidated 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 in the consolidated financial statements, which indicates that the Company incurred a net loss of $4,944,272 during the year ended June 30, 2023, and as of that date, had accumulated losses since inception of $45,947,429. 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 consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2023. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated 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.

Assessment of Impairment Indicators for the Company’s Property and Equipment (P&E) Key Audit Matter Description

The net book value of P&E amounted to $2.7 million as at June 30, 2023. Management evaluates each asset or cash generating unit at each reporting date to determine whether there are any indications of impairment. Management applies significant judgment in assessing whether indicators of impairment exist that would necessitate impairment testing. Internal and external factors, such as (i) a significant decline in the market value of the Company's share price; (ii) changes in forecasted gold prices; (iii) changes in projected capital and operating costs; are evaluated by management in determining whether there are any indicators of impairment. If any such indicator exists, an estimate of the recoverable amount is performed, and an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. No impairment indicators were identified by management as at June 30, 2023.

2

We considered this a key audit matter due to the significance of the P&E balance and the significant audit effort and subjectivity in applying audit procedures to assess the internal and external factors evaluated by management in its assessment of impairment indicators, which required significant management judgment. This resulted in a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating the audit evidence relating to management's judgment and estimates.

Audit Response

We responded to this matter by performing procedures over management's assessment of indicators of impairment. Our audit work in relation to this included, but was not restricted to, the following:

  • Assessed the completeness of internal and external factors that could be considered as indicators of impairment of the Company's P&E, including consideration of evidence obtained in other areas of the audit .

  • Assessed whether significant declines in the market value of the Company's share price have occurred, which may indicate a decline in value of the Company's net assets .

  • Assessed the reasonableness of changes in projected capital and operating costs by comparing them to historical data and considered whether these factors were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit .

Other Information

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

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

In connection with our audit of the consolidated 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 consolidated 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 C onsolidated Financial Statements

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

In preparing the consolidated 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 C onsolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements.

3

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 consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

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.

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

Ximen Mining Corp. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2023 and 2022 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN

Ximen Mining Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act of British Columbia on December 4, 2006. The Company is currently engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and evaluation of its mineral property interests located in British Columbia. The Company’s shares are listed on the TSX-V Exchange (“TSX-V”) under the symbol XIM, on the Frankfurt Exchange under the symbol A1W2EG, and on the US OTCQX, under the symbol XXMMF. The head office, principal address, and registered office is located at 888 Dunsmuir Street, Suite 888, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

The Company is in the process of exploring and developing its exploration and evaluation assets and has not yet determined whether the properties contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable. The recoverability of the amounts shown for exploration and evaluation assets are dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable mineral reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to complete the development of those mineral reserves, and upon future production or proceeds from the disposition thereof.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared using International Financial Reporting Standards applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, it does not give effect to adjustments that, if any, would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and, therefore, be required to realize its assets and liquidate its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts which may differ from those shown in the consolidated financial statements. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain additional equity financing and achieve future profitable operations.

As at June 30, 2023, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $45,947,429 (2022 – $41,072,327) and working capital deficiency of $1,521,753 (2022-$173,369). The Company’s ability to continue operations is dependent upon the financial support from its shareholders and other parties, its ability to obtain additional financing, the existence of economically recoverable reserves, the attainment of profitable operations, and sufficient proceeds from disposition of properties. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. While management has been successful in obtaining sufficient funding for its operating, capital development, and exploration requirements from the inception of the Company to date, there is no assurance that additional future funding will be available to the Company or on terms that are acceptable to management.

The current cash resources are not adequate to pay the Company’s accounts payable and to meet its minimum commitments at the date of these consolidated financial statements, including planned corporate and administrative expenses, and other project implementation costs; accordingly, there is significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a) Statement of Compliance

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments classified as financial instruments at fair value through profit and loss, which are stated at their fair value.

These audited consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on October 27, 2023.

b) Basis of Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of its subsidiary (collectively, the “Company”). Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in preparing these consolidated financial statements. The net assets and net profit attributable to outside shareholders are presented as amounts attributable to non-controlling interest in the consolidated statements of financial position and consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

Ximen Mining Corp. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2023 and 2022 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

The following companies have been consolidated within these consolidated financial statements:

Entity Countryof Incorporation Ownership Functional Currency
Ximen Mining Corp. Canada Parent Company Canadian Dollar
0995237 B.C. Ltd. Canada 95% Canadian Dollar

c) Business Combinations and Asset Acquisitions

Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of a business combination is measured as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued in exchange for control of the acquiree. The Company recognizes identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition-date fair values. Acquisition related costs are expensed to profit or loss.

Acquisitions that do not meet the definition of a business combination are accounted for as an asset acquisition. The cost of an asset acquisition is allocated to the individual identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values. Asset acquisitions do not give rise to goodwill.

d) Reclamation Bonds

Reclamation bonds are recorded at amortized cost and held by Canadian government agencies or in trust.

e) Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

The cost consists of the purchase price, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for its intended use, and an initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of equipment, less their estimated residual value, using the declining balance method, as follows:

Vehicles 20%
Building 3.33%
Equipment 20%
Office Furniture 20%

The estimated useful lives, residual values, and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.

An item of property and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in profit or loss.

f) Impairment of Non-Current Assets

The carrying amounts of non-current assets are reviewed for impairment whenever facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If there are indications of impairment, then the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of any impairment. Individual assets are grouped together as a cash generating unit for impairment assessment purposes at the lowest level at which there are identifiable cash flows that are independent from other group assets.

The recoverable amount of an asset or cash generating unit is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An impairment loss exists if the asset’s or cash generating unit’s carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount and is recorded as an expense immediately. In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are adjusted for the risks specific to the cash generating unit and are discounted to their present value with a discount rate that reflects the current market indicators.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized as income immediately.

Ximen Mining Corp. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2023 and 2022 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

g) Exploration and Evaluation Assets

Expenditures related to the acquisition, exploration, and development of exploration and evaluation assets are expensed and charged to earnings in the period in which they are incurred. Any option payments received by the Company from third parties or tax credits refunded to the Company are charged against exploration expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

Although the Company has taken steps to verify the title to mineral properties in which it has an interest in accordance with general industry standards, these procedures do not guarantee the Company’s title. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and, as such, title may be affected.

h) Provisions

(i) Decommissioning and Restoration Provision

Future obligations to retire an asset, including dismantling, remediation, and ongoing treatment and monitoring of the site related to normal operations are initially recognized and recorded as a provision based on estimated future cash flows discounted at a credit-adjusted risk-free rate. This decommissioning and restoration provision is adjusted at each reporting period for changes to factors including the expected amount of cash flows required to discharge the liability, the timing of such cash flows, and the discount rate. The provision is accreted to full value over time through periodic charges to profit. This unwinding of the discount is charged to financing expense in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

The amount of the decommissioning and restoration provision initially recognized is capitalized as part of the related asset’s carrying value and depreciated to profit. The method of depreciation follows that of the underlying asset. The costs related to a decommissioning and restoration provision is only capitalized to the extent that the amount meets the definition of an asset and can bring about future economic benefit.

As at June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company has no material decommissioning and restoration provision.

(ii) Other Provisions

Provisions are recognized when a present legal or constructive obligation exists as a result of past events and it is probable that an outflow of resources that can be reliably estimated will be required to settle the obligation. Where the effect is material, the provision is discounted using an appropriate current market-based pre-tax discount rate.

i) Share Capital

Share capital includes cash consideration received for share issuances, net of commissions and issue costs.

Proceeds from the issue of units, consisting of common shares and share purchase warrants, are first allocated to common shares based on the quoted market value of the common shares at the time the units are priced, and the balance, if any, is allocated to the attached warrants.

Shares issued for other than cash consideration are valued at the quoted price on the TSX-V Exchange based on the date the shares are issued.

j) Loss per Share

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share, as the issuance of shares on the exercise of stock options and share purchase warrants is antidilutive.

k) Flow-Through Shares

Flow-through shares entitle a company that incurs certain resource expenditures in Canada to renounce them for tax purposes allowing the expenditures to be deducted for income tax purposes by the investors who purchased the shares.

To account for flow-through units, on issuance, the Company allocates flow-through share proceeds into i) share capital, equal to the market value of the shares, ii) a flow-through share premium liability, equal to the estimated premium investors pay for the flow-through feature, and iii) reserve for warrants, equal to the remaining proceeds received.

11

Ximen Mining Corp. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2023 and 2022 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

The amount recorded as a liability relating to the sale of tax benefits is reversed when the tax benefits are renounced. The difference between the amount originally recorded as a liability and the estimated income tax benefits on date of renunciation is recognized in profit or loss. The tax effect of the renunciation is recorded at the time the Company makes the renunciation, which may differ from the effective date of renunciation.

l) Share-Based Payments

The fair value method of accounting is used for share-based payment transactions. Under this method, the cost of stock options and other share-based payments is recorded based on the estimated fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model at the grant date and charged to profit over the vesting period. Upon the exercise of stock options and other share-based payments, consideration received on the exercise of these equity instruments is recorded as share capital and the related share-based payment reserve is transferred to share capital.

m) Nature and Purpose of Equity and Reserves

The reserves recorded in equity on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position include ‘Share Subscriptions Received’, ‘Share-based Payment Reserve’, and ‘Deficit’.

  • ‘Share Subscriptions Received’ is used to recognize the value of cash received towards share subscriptions that have not been issued by year-end.

  • ‘Share-based Payment Reserve’ is used to recognize the fair value of stock option grants and warrants prior to exercise, expiry or cancellation and the fair value of other share-based consideration paid at the date of payment.

  • ‘Deficit’ is used to record the Company’s change in deficit from earnings from period to period and to recognize the fair value of stock option grants and warrants after expiry or cancellation.

n) Refundable Mining Tax Credits

The Company qualifies for refundable mining tax credits on eligible mining exploration expenditures incurred in the Province of British Columbia, Canada. This tax credit is applied against exploration expenditures incurred and recorded as tax credit receivable when the terms and conditions of the government mineral exploration assistance program have been complied with, the credit can be reasonably estimated, and collection is reasonably assured.

o) Income Taxes

Tax expense recognized in profit or loss comprises the sum of deferred tax and current tax not recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

i) Current Income Tax

Current income tax assets and/or liabilities comprise those claims from, or obligations to, fiscal authorities relating to the current or prior reporting periods that are unpaid at the reporting date. Current tax is payable on taxable profit, which differs from profit or loss in the consolidated financial statements. Calculation of current tax is based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

ii) Deferred Income Tax

Deferred income taxes are calculated using the liability method on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated, without discounting, at tax rates that are expected to apply to their respective period of realization, provided they are enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax liabilities are always provided for in full.

Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that they will be able to be utilized against future taxable income. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only when the Company has a right and intention to offset current tax assets and liabilities from the same taxation authority.

Changes in deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognized as a component of tax income or expense in profit or loss, except where they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the related deferred tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or equity, respectively.

12

Ximen Mining Corp. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2023 and 2022 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

p) Financial Instruments

The following is the Company’s accounting policy for financial instruments under IFRS 9:

(i) 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. For other equity instruments, on the day of acquisition the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to designate them as at FVTOCI. 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 following table shows the classification under IFRS 9:

Financial assets/liabilities: Classification IFRS 9:
Cash Amortized cost
Other Receivables Amortized cost
Marketable Securities FVTPL
Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities Amortized cost
Due to Related Parties Amortized cost
Loan Payable Amortized cost

(ii) 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 consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. 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 consolidated statements of comprehensive loss in the period in which they arise.

Debt investments at FVTOCI

These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income calculated using the effective interest method, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognised in profit or loss. Other net gains and losses are recognised in Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”). On derecognition, gains and losses accumulated in OCI are reclassified to profit or loss.

Equity investments at FVTOCI

These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Dividends are recognised as income in profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Other net gains and losses are recognised in OCI and are never reclassified to profit or loss.

(iii) 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 consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, 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.

13

Ximen Mining Corp. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2023 and 2022 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

(iv) Derecognition

Financial assets

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.

Financial liabilities

The Company derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled or expire. The Company also derecognizes a financial liability when the terms of the liability are modified such that the terms and / or cash flows of the modified instrument are substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognized at fair value.

Gains and losses on derecognition are generally recognized in profit or loss.

q) Non-Controlling Interest

Non-controlling interest in the Company’s residual ownership interest in a controlled subsidiary is classified as a separate component of equity. On initial recognition, non-controlling interest is measured at the fair value of the noncontrolling entity’s contribution into the related subsidiary. Subsequent to the original transaction date, adjustments are made to the carrying amount of non-controlling interest for the non-controlling interest’s share of changes to the subsidiary’s equity.

NOTE 3 – NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ISSUED

Several new standards, and amendments to standards and interpretations, are not yet effective for the year ended June 30, 2023, and have not been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements. None are currently considered by the Company to be significant or likely to have a material impact on future consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

In the application of the Company’s accounting policies which are described in Note 2, management is required to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods, if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Significant areas where management’s judgment has been applied include the following:

  • Classifying categories of financial assets and financial liabilities in accordance with IFRS 9, Financial instruments: recognition and measurement.

  • The recoverability of the carrying value of mineral property interests is dependent on successful development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively, sale of the respective areas of interest; and

  • Management’s assumption that there are currently no decommissioning liabilities is based on the facts and circumstances that have existed during the periods.

Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates and assumptions include the following:

a) Useful Lives of Property and Equipment

Management reviews the useful lives of property and equipment at each reporting date, based on the expected utility of these assets to the Company. Actual useful lives of these assets may differ from the estimate.

14

Ximen Mining Corp. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2023 and 2022 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

b) Business Combinations and Asset Acquisitions

On initial recognition, the assets and liabilities of the acquired business and the consideration paid for them are included in the consolidated financial statements at their fair values. In measuring fair value, management uses estimates of future cash flows and discount rates. Any subsequent change in these estimates will affect the amount of goodwill if the change qualifies as a measurement period adjustment. Any other change would be recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss in the subsequent period.

c) Impairment of Non-Current Assets

An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s or cash-generating unit’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. To determine the recoverable amount, management estimates expected future cash flows from each asset or cash-generating unit and determines a suitable interest rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. In the process of measuring expected future cash flows, management makes assumptions about future operating results. These assumptions relate to future events and circumstances. In addition, when determining the applicable discount rate, estimation is involved in determining the appropriate adjustments to market risk and asset-specific risk factors. Actual results may vary and may cause significant adjustments to the Company’s assets within the next financial year.

d) Deferred Tax Assets

Deferred tax assets, including those arising from un-utilized tax losses, require management to assess the likelihood that the Company will generate sufficient taxable earnings in future periods in order to utilize recognized deferred tax assets. Assumptions about the generation of future taxable profits depend on management’s estimates of future cash flows. In addition, future changes in tax laws could limit the ability of the Company to obtain tax deductions in future periods. To the extent that future cash flows and taxable income differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the Company to realize the net deferred tax assets recorded at the reporting date could be impacted. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty in the realization of these assets.

e) Share-Based Compensation

The fair value of stock-based compensation is subject to the limitations of the Black-Scholes option pricing model that incorporates market data and involves uncertainty in estimates used by management in the assumptions. Because the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the volatility of share prices, changes in subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.

NOTE 5 – MARKETABLE SECURITIES

Marketable securities consist of a portfolio of investments held for trading. The fair value of the marketable securities has been determined directly by reference to public price quotations in an active market. These marketable securities are comprised of common shares of publicly traded companies and are classified as fair value through profit or loss and measured at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized through the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

NOTE 8 – INVESTMENT IN KENVILLE GOLD MINE AND PROPERTY

In April and May 2019, the Company entered into various agreements whereby it acquired approximately 78% of the issued and outstanding shares of 0995237 B.C. Ltd (“099 BC”), a private arm’s length company, in exchange for common shares and future cash payments by the Company. The principal asset of 099 BC is its option to acquire the Kenville Gold Mine, located west of Nelson, B.C.

Acquisition of Subsidiary – 0995237 B.C. Ltd.

In May 2019, the Company issued a total of 3,528,769 common shares from treasury (approximately 10.62% of the Company’s total issued and outstanding common shares) for common shares and notes payable of 099 BC as follows:

  • (i) 2,253,769 common shares of the Company, fair valued at $1,115,616, to former shareholders of 099 BC in exchange for 43,261,811 common shares of 099 BC, representing 78% of the total outstanding common shares of 099 BC (the “78% Interest”).

  • (ii) 1,275,000 common shares of the Company, fair valued at $631,125, to a former shareholder of 099 BC in exchange for his promissory note receivable from 099 BC – principal amount of $1,000,000 plus accrued interest receivable of $118,388, for total face value of $1,118,388. The excess of the total face value of the note and interest over the fair value of the Company’s shares issued, $487,263, is recognized as gain on assumption of the promissory note.

The Company also has additional obligations as it acquired the following payables of 099 BC from a former shareholder of 099 BC as follows:

  • (iii) Cash payable of $980,000 in exchange for 099 BC note payable with a face value of $1,957,865. The excess of the face value of the note payable over the future cash payment, $977,865, was recognized as gain on assumption of the promissory note payable in 2019. This future cash payment is unsecured, non-interest bearing, and includes repayment dates (Note 15).

  • (iv) Cash payable of $400,000 in exchange for the same amount of debt owed to a former shareholder of 099 BC who paid for mining equipment owned by 099 BC. This future cash payment is unsecured, non-interest bearing, and includes repayment dates (Note 15).

  • (v) Assumption of debt totaling $270,000 to two former shareholders of 099 BC by 099 BC. This amount was incurred on exploration expenditures related to Kenville property.

The following table summarizes the recognized fair value amounts of assets acquired and liabilities assumed on May 30, 2019, the date of acquisition of 78% interest in 099 BC:

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

The acquisition of 78% interest of 099 BC by the Company does not meet the requirement of IFRS 3, Business Combinations. As such, this acquisition was accounted for under IFRS 6, Exploration and Evaluation of Mineral Resources. The premium of the consideration paid by the Company over the net liabilities of the acquired 099 BC was expensed as exploration and evaluation expenditures as the Company’s accounting policy is expensing both the acquisition costs and exploration costs during the period when the expenditures were incurred.

The fair value of the consideration given by the Company for the 78% controlling interest in 099 BC, was $1,115,616, (2,253,769 common shares issued at $0.495 per share). The fair value of the 22% non-controlling interest in 099 BC was therefore valued at $314,661, using the 78% valuation amount. Accordingly, the premium in the amount of $3,453,057, comprising the fair value of the shares issued by the Company plus the fair value of the 22% non-controlling interest, totaling $1,430,277, over the fair value of the net liabilities of 0995237 BC Ltd. acquired by the Company, were recognized as exploration and evaluation expenditures for 2019.

On July 3, 2019, as part of the acquisition of 099 BC, the Company acquired an additional 4,733,320 shares of 099 BC by issuing 236,666 common shares to shareholders of 099 BC. On June 8, 2020, the Company acquired an additional 400,000 shares of 099 BC by issuing 20,000 common shares. The additional shares purchased brings the total percentage owned of 099 BC from 78% to 88%.

The fair value of the consideration given by the Company for the additional 10% of non-controlling interest was $167,033 including $153,833 (236,666 common shares issued at $0.65 per share) and $13,200 (20,000 common shares issued at $0.66 per share). The carrying value of the additional 10% non-controlling interest was $122,822 prior to the acquisition of this non-controlling interest by the Company. The difference between the fair value of the consideration paid by the Company ($167,033) and the carrying value ($122,822), $44,211, was charged to other comprehensive loss in 2020.

On July 7, 2020, the Company acquired a further 66,667 shares of 099 BC by issuing 3,334 shares, fair valued at $1,500, and in addition, 099 BC cancelled 4,000,000 shares, representing 7% of non-controlling interest. The difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the carrying value is $1,303 which was charged to other comprehensive loss.

Acquisition of Royalty Option from Gungnir Resources Inc.

On April 25, 2019, the Company entered into a royalty option agreement with Gungnir Resources Inc. (“Gungnir”) to acquire Gungnir’s receivable from 099 BC in the amount of $220,000 and all of Gungnir’s remaining interest in its 4% gross metal royalty over 099 BC owned Kenville Gold Mine Property for total consideration of $1,700,000. The option is exercisable at the Company’s sole discretion. To exercise the option under the option agreement, the Company is required to pay the $1,700,000 as follows:

  • $500,000 in cash (paid);

  • $200,000 in common shares of Ximen (285,918 shares issued fair valued at $142,959);

  • $1,000,000 in cash, to be paid on or before October 31, 2019 (paid).

The exercise of the option is conditional on Ximen paying the full purchase price as set out above and receipt of TSX-V approval. TSX-V approved the transaction on May 24, 2019.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2023 and 2022

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

The Company manages its share capital as capital, which as at June 30, 2023, was $45,001,897 (2022 – $42,169,363). Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable.

The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the year ended June 30, 2023.

NOTE 19 – FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair value of the Company’s loans receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and amounts due to related parties approximate their carrying value, which is the amount recorded on the consolidated statements of financial position. The Company’s other financial instruments and cash under the fair value hierarchy are recorded at fair value based on level one quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

The Company’s risk exposures and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below:

a) Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counterparty’s inability to fulfill its payment obligations. Management believes that its credit risk is not significant.

b) Liquidity Risk

The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. As at June 30, 2023, the Company had a cash balance of $3,864 to settle current liabilities of $1,770,118. All of the Company’s financial liabilities have contractual maturities of less than 30 days and are subject to normal trade terms. Management expects to fund those liabilities through the issuance of capital stock and loans from related parties over the coming year.

c) Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s loans payable and amounts due to related parties bear interest at fixed rates. The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk.

d) Foreign Currency Risk

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on fluctuations related to cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable and accrued liabilities that are denominated in U.S. Dollars. The Company’s financial instruments denoted in U.S. Dollars are insignificant and any fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates would have an insignificant impact on net loss for the year.

e) Commodity 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. Management closely monitors commodity prices to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken in its investing and financing activities. As the Company has not yet developed commercial mineral interests, it is not exposed to significant commodity price risk.

f) Fair Value

The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining fair value measurements:

  • Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

  • Level 2: Other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly.

  • Level 3: Techniques which use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data.

The level within which the financial asset or liability is classified is determined based on the lowest level of significant input to the fair value measurement.

The Company’s financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss use Level 1 valuation techniques during the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The carrying values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair values as at June 30, 2023.

NOTE 20 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
