Notes to Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

1. Nature and Continuance of Operations

The Company was incorporated on September 26, 2017, under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) under the name Vizsla Capital Corp. On March 8, 2018, the Company changed its name to Vizsla Resources Corp. On February 5, 2021, the Company changed its name to Vizsla Silver Corp. (the "Company", "Vizsla Silver"). On January 21, 2022, Vizsla Silver Corp was listed on the NYSE American and commenced trading under the symbol "VZLA". Effective November 7, 2024 the common shares of the Company were uplisted to the TSX  under the symbol VZLA. The Company's principal business activity is the exploration of mineral properties. The Company currently conducts substantially all its operations in Canada and Mexico in one business segment.

The head office and principal address of the Company is located at 595 Burrard Street, Suite 1723

Vancouver, BC V7X 1J1.

The Company has not yet determined whether its properties contain ore reserves. The recoverability of the amounts shown for mineral properties and exploration costs is dependent upon the existence of ore reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete the exploration and development of its properties, and future profitable production or proceeds from the disposal of properties.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles applicable to a going concern which assumes the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business rather than through a process of forced liquidation.

The Company continues to experience risks associated with global inflation and volatility in foreign exchange rates. The Company continues to monitor each of these risks and will execute timely and appropriate measures as necessary. Further, near-term metal prices, exchange rates, discount rates, and other key assumptions used in the Company's accounting estimates are subject to greater uncertainty given the current economic environment. Changes in these assumptions could significantly impact the Company's accounting estimates.

2. Material Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") have been omitted or condensed, and therefore these condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's April 30, 2024, audited annual consolidated financial statements and the notes to such financial statements.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements are based on the IFRS issued and effective as of October 31, 2024. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Company's Board of Directors on December 12, 2024, and follow the same accounting policies and methods of computation as the most recent annual consolidated financial statements.

2. Material Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation (continued)

a) Basis of Consolidation

The principal subsidiaries of the Company, which are accounted for under the consolidation method, are as follows:

Panuco Royalty Corp. (formerly Vizsla Royalty Corp., Vizsla Copper Corp., and 1283303 B.C. Ltd.) (1) Royalty Company Canada 41.35% 100%
Canam Royalties Mexico, S.A. de C.V.(1) Royalty Company Mexico 41.35% 100%
Vizsla Royalties Corp. (1) Royalty Company Canada 41.35% 100%
Goanna Resources, S.A.P.I. de C.V. (2) Exploring evaluating mineral properties Mexico 100% 0%

(1) On October 13, 2023, Vizsla Royalty Corp.'s name was changed to Panuco Royalty Corp., and Vizsla Royalties Corp. was incorporated. Vizsla Royalties Corp. became the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, and Panuco Royalty Corp. became its wholly owned subsidiary. On June 24, 2024 Vizsla Royalties Corp., and its subsidiaries (Panuco Royalty Corp. and Canam Royalties Mexico, S.A. de C.V.) were spun out of Vizsla Silver Corp. (Note 7). Following the Arrangement as defined in Note 7, Vizsla Royalties Corp. is no longer a subsidiary of Vizsla Silver.

(2) On October 7, 2024 the Company acquired Goanna Resources, S.A.P.I. de C.M. See Note 8(b).

Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the group has control. The group controls an entity when the group is exposed to or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and can affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

b) Loss of control

When losing control of a subsidiary, the Company derecognizes the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary at their carrying amounts, including any non-controlling interests in the former subsidiary. Consideration received and any investment retained in the former subsidiary are recognized at its fair value. If the transaction, event or circumstances that resulted in the loss of control involves a distribution of shares of the subsidiary to owners in their capacity as owners, that distribution is recognized at its fair value in accordance with IFRIC 17 - distribution of non-cash assets to owners, as a reduction in deficit from the Company. Any gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss attributable to the Company.

2. Material Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation (continued)

c) Business combinations

Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method under IFRS 3 - Business Combinations. A business combination requires the assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a business. A business is an integrated set of activities and assets that is capable of being conducted and managed for the purpose of providing goods or services to customers, generating investment income (such as dividends or interest) or generating other income from ordinary activities. For the assets acquired and liabilities assumed not constituting a business, it is accounted as an asset acquisition. Consideration is measured at the date of the exchange which includes equity instruments issued. Acquisition related costs incurred for the business combination are expensed and included in purchase costs for asset acquisition. The acquiree's identifiable assets and liabilities are recognized at their fair values at the acquisition date. Provisional fair values are finalized at the earlier of the following: the date as soon as the acquirer received the information it was seeking about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date, learns that more information is not available or twelve months from the acquisition date. Goodwill arising on an acquisition is recognized as an asset and initially measured at cost, which is the excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of the net identifiable assets and liabilities recognized. No goodwill is recognized in an asset acquisition transaction.

d) Accounting standards issued but not yet adopted

The new standards or amendments issued but not yet effective are either not applicable or Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of the specific standard below on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

Accounting pronouncements

New standards and interpretations not yet adopted in 2024:

IFRS 18: Presentation and Disclosure of Financial Statements

On April 9, 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements ("IFRS 18"), to improve reporting of financial performance. IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements ("IAS 1"). IFRS 18 carries forward many of the requirements of IAS 1 but introduces significant changes to the structure of a company's statement of income (loss).

The standard is applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, with earlier adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the standard.

2. Material Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation (continued)

e) Significant Accounting Judgments and Estimates

Preparing the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, and related disclosure. Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management's experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Judgment is used mainly in determining how a balance or transaction should be recognized in the financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are used mainly in determining the measurement of recognized transactions and balances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Information about critical judgments and estimates in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the interim financial statements for the six-month period ended October 31, 2024, are consistent with those applied and disclosed in Note 2 of the annual consolidated financial statements except for the ones disclosed below. The Company's interim results are not necessarily indicative of its results for a full year.

Significant areas where management's judgment and estimate has been applied during the six months ended October 31, 2024 include:

  • Fair value determination of distributed assets and retained interest on spin-out transaction

Management assessed the fair value of the distributed assets and retained interest at the transaction day. The shares were valued using market prices, while the warrants were estimated using an option pricing model. The retained interest was also measured based on fair value of the shares. Management applied judgment in determining the appropriate timing for recognizing these values in the financial statements.

  • Multiple arrangements accounted for as a single transaction

Significant judgement involved in determining whether multiple arrangements should be accounted for as a single transaction when the Company loses control of a subsidiary in two or more arrangements. As the spin-out arrangement and private placement of Vizsla Royalties are considered entered in contemplation of each other and form a single transaction designed to achieve an overall commercial effect, management assessed the spin-out arrangement and the loss of control in Vizsla Royalties Corp. as one single transaction.

  • Assessment of the transactions as business combinations or asset acquisitions

Management has had to apply judgment relating to an acquisition with respect to whether the acquisition is a business combination or an asset acquisition. Management applied a three-element process to determine whether a business or an asset was purchased, considering inputs, processes, and outputs of the acquisition in order to reach a conclusion. The Company concluded that the acquisition of La Garra as defined in note 8 b) does not meet the definition of a business combination and therefore is accounted for as an asset acquisition.

  • Valuation of net assets acquired in asset acquisitions

Estimates were made as to the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations. The Company measured all assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition-date fair values. Additionally, the Company measured the fair value of the consideration payable in cash and in shares applying and calculating discount rates reflective of the timing and risks associated to the Company and the industry it operates in.

6. Strategic Investment in Prismo Metals Inc. and Intangible Asset

On December 16, 2022, the Company entered a strategic investment with Prismo Metals Inc. ("Prismo"), listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange as "PRIZ," which was finalized on January 6, 2023. The Company acquired (i) a right of first refusal ("ROFR") to purchase Prismo's Palos Verdes project, valid until January 6, 2027, and (ii) 4,000,000 Prismo units. Each unit includes one common share and half of a share purchase warrant, allowing the purchase of an additional share at $0.75 for two years.

The ROFR obligates Prismo to notify the Company of third-party offers for Palos Verdes, giving the Company a 45-day window to match the offer. The ROFR expires if the Company's ownership falls below 8%. The Prismo units were valued at $1,413,225.

The investment included $500,000 in cash and 1,000,000 Company shares, fair valued at $1,357,155, both subject to a hold period of four months and one day, and a voluntary escrow period of 24 months with 25% of the securities released every six months.

As part of the strategic investment, Prismo and the Company agreed to form a technical committee to explore the Panuco silver-gold district. Before the investment, the Company held no Prismo shares. After the deal, the Company owns 4,000,000 shares and 2,000,000 warrants, representing 10.08% of Prismo's non-diluted shares and 14.4% on a partially diluted basis. As of October 31, 2024, 3 million shares have been released from the voluntary hold.

Due to the absence of common management or directors, the Company has no significant influence over Prismo and recognizes its Prismo units as an investment, measured at fair value through profit or loss. For the period ended October 31, 2024, the fair value change was a gain of $218,402 (October 31, 2023: loss of $633,529). To maintain its ROFR, the Company must ensure its ownership percentage remains above 8%. In the June 18, 2024, financing round by Prismo, the Company acquired an additional 1,100,000 Prismo shares at $0.17 per share. The Company now owns 5,100,000 shares, representing 9.56% of Prismo's non-diluted shares. These shares are subject to a four-month holding period. The investment continuity schedule is provided below:

6. Strategic Investment in Prismo Metals Inc. and Intangible Asset (continued)

Prismo shares are fair valued using the discount for lack of marketability ("DLOM") method. DLOM is based on the risk arising from the restricted holding period and voluntary escrow. The valuation of Prismo shares follows a level 2 fair value measurement. The share price is derived from the market price on the period-end date, October 31, 2024, of $0.17 (April 30, 2024: $0.145), with consideration for the lack of marketability. The DLOM rate used is provided below:

  October 31, 2024 April 30, 2024
Date DLOM DLOM
06-Jul-23 Issued Issued
06-Jan-24 Issued Issued
06-Jul-24 Issued 10.87%
06-Jan-25 19.90% 19.90%

The fair value of the Prismo warrants granted was calculated as of October 31, 2024, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

  October 31, 2024 April 30, 2024
Risk Free Interest Rate 3.09% 4.45%
Expected Dividend Yield Nil Nil
Expected Volatility 98.08% 113.64%

7. Plan of Arrangement - Spin out of Vizsla Royalties Corp.

On January 17, 2024, the Company announced an arrangement agreement ("Arrangement") with its subsidiary Vizsla Royalties Corp. ("Spinco"), which holds a net smelter royalty (NSR) on the Panuco silver-gold project in Sinaloa, Mexico. Under the Arrangement, Vizsla Silver shareholders received one new Vizsla Silver share, one-third of a Spinco share, and one-third of a Spinco warrant for each Vizsla Silver share held. As a result, Spinco ceased being a wholly owned subsidiary of Vizsla Silver.

The Arrangement was approved by shareholders on June 17, 2024, received court approval on June 19, and final TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX-V") approval on June 20, 2024. It was completed on June 24, 2024. Shareholders received one new Vizsla Silver share and 0.3333 Spinco shares for each Vizsla Silver share held as of June 21, 2024.

Following closing of the Arrangement, Vizsla Silver and Spinco intend to complete a number of steps, including the following: (a) Spinco will settle an outstanding loan from Vizsla Silver into Spinco Shares, (b) Vizsla Silver will make an additional $3,500,000 loan to Spinco if required, (c) Spinco may exercise its buyback right on an underlying royalty on the Panuco Project, after which point the royalty held by Spinco will consist of a 2% NSR on the entire Panuco Project, (d) Spinco will complete a private placement for gross proceeds of at least $3,000,000, and (e) Spinco will complete a consolidation of the Spinco Shares on the basis of one new Spinco Share for every ten old Spinco Shares.

Vizsla Silver and Spinco have entered into a royalty right agreement which provides that, if Vizsla Silver or any of its affiliates acquires mineral properties within a two-kilometer boundary around the Panuco Project, it must offer Spinco an NSR on such mineral property to Spinco on terms proposed by Vizsla Silver.

7. Plan of Arrangement - Spin out of Vizsla Royalties Corp. (continued)

Upon closing, the Company retained 83,000,000 shares of Spinco. The Company also received $470,081 in cash and 32,186,240 Spinco shares at $0.06 to offset a $2,079,393 loan, resulting in a gain on settlement of debt at $321,862, and increasing its total holdings to 115,186,240 shares (41.35% of Spinco's holdings). Spinco completed the non-brokered private placement on July 29, 2024, raising gross proceeds of $5 million. Spinco shares began trading on the TSX-V under the symbol VROY on August 26, 2024. Spinco consolidated its common shares at a 10-to-1 ratio, as approved by the Board on July 31, 2024.

In accordance with IFRIC 17, 80,493,651 shares and 80,493,651 warrants of Spinco were treated as a distribution of capital to the Company's shareholders, with a fair value of $6,669,084 (80,493,651 shares at $0.06 per share, totaling $4,829,619, and 80,493,651 warrants valued at $1,839,465 using the Black-Scholes pricing model). The retained interest in Spinco held by Vizsla Silver was fair valued at $6,911,174, based on 115,186,240 Spinco shares at $0.06 per share. As a result, the Company recorded a gain of $13,749,421 from the spin-out in its condensed consolidated interim statements of profit (loss) and comprehensive loss for the six-month period ended October 31, 2024. 

The fair value of SpinCo's warrants granted in the six-month period ended October 31, 2024, was calculated as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions:

Risk Free Interest Rate

3.94%

Expected Dividend Yield

-

Expected Volatility

73.71%

Expected Term in Years

As of October 31, 2024, the Company holds a 41.35% interest in Spinco and after assessing if there is any other indicative of control, it was concluded that Spinco is now an associate that is accounted following the equity method and is no longer consolidated. As a result, the Company recorded a share of loss in associate of $561,520 for the three- and six-month period ended October 31, 2024. The investment continuity schedule is provided below:

On November 5, 2019, under a share exchange agreement dated September 13, 2019, the Company acquired all common shares of Canam Alpine Ventures Ltd. ("Canam"), a private British Columbia company. Canam owns two Mexican subsidiaries: Minera Canam S.A. DE C.V. and Operaciones Canam Alpine S.A. DE C.V. The Company agreed to pay $45,000 in cash and issue 6,000,000 common shares and 12,000,000 Milestone Shares, with additional shares issued upon achievement of milestones:

  • Milestone 1: Issuance of 6,500,000 common shares if defined options are exercised by Canam.

The Company also issued 250,000 common shares at closing and will issue 250,000 additional shares per milestone, totaling 750,000 shares as finders' fees. Contingent consideration of $308,595 related to the milestones and finders' fees was recorded at fair value and has been fully reversed as of April 30, 2022.

The Panuco agreement requires $2,000,000 in exploration and $23,000,000 in payments, with an extension paid on May 6, 2020. The Copala agreement requires $1,423,000 in exploration and $20,000,000 in payments, with a 3.0% NSR that can be reduced to 1.5% for 10% of the purchase price.

8. Exploration and Evaluation Assets (continued)

a) Canam Alpine Ventures Ltd. - Panuco-Copala Property (continued)

The Company created a 100% owned subsidiary, Canam Royalties Mexico, S.A. de C.V. ("Canam Royalties") through Vizsla Royalty Corp., which is 100% owned by the Company. On February 23, 2022, Vizsla transferred 2% NSR on certain concessions and 0.5% NSR on certain concessions to Canam Royalties. On November 16, 2022, and January 30, 2023, Vizsla transferred 2% NSR on certain concessions to Canam Royalties. On October 13, 2023, Vizsla Royalty Corp.'s name was changed to Panuco Royalty Corp., and Vizsla Royalties Corp. was incorporated. Vizsla Royalties Corp. became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and Panuco Royalty Corp. became its wholly owned subsidiary. 

On June 24, 2024, the Company completed the arrangement agreement to spin out Vizsla Royalties Corp. to shareholders under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (Note 7).

Acquisition of El Richard - San Enrique claims

The Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the "APA") dated March 5, 2024, with Inca Azteca Gold S.A.P.I. de C.V. ("Inca Azteca Gold") and the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Minera Canam, S.A. de C.V. ("Minera Canam") pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire, through Minera Canam, all of Inca Azteca Gold's right, title and interest in and to the mineral concessions (the "Acquisition"). The Acquisition includes two large claims comprising 10,667 hectares (the "El Richard - San Enrique claims" or "San Enrique prospect") located south and partially adjacent to the Company's Panuco project (the "Panuco Project" or "Panuco"). The San Enrique prospect is situated along the highly prospective Panuco - San Dimas corridor. All acquisition cost related to the San Enrique prospect will be summarized in Note 8a as part of the Panuco-Copala Property since the "El Richard - San Enrique claims" is now considered part of the Panuco project.

Pursuant to the APA, the Company has agreed to issue an aggregate of US$650,000 in common shares of the Company at the exchange rate and market price applicable on the effective date (April 15, 2024) (collectively, the "Consideration Shares") plus any applicable value added tax to Inca Azteca Gold (paid). For accounting purposes, the acquisition will be recorded as an exploration and evaluation asset, as defined in IFRS 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources. The Acquisition was settled with equity and its fair value can be reliably providing using share price on the closing date of April 15, 2024, per IFRS 2 Share-based payment.

On May 3, 2024, the Company issued to the Inca Azteca Gold 448,137 common shares of Vizsla priced at $1.97 per share (for a total value of $882,830 (US$650,000)) upon the completion of the transfer of the El Richard - San Enrique claims (Note 10g). The Company also paid $1,103,387 (US$805,143) for surface duties owed by Inca Azteca Gold to Governmental Entities concerning the mineral concessions.

The Consideration Shares are subject to a four-month hold period pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws and Inca Azteca Gold has agreed to voluntary resale restrictions, whereby 12.5% of the Consideration Shares will become free trading on the date that is four months and one day from the effective date and an additional 12.5% will become free trading every three months thereafter.

b) Acquisition of Goanna Resources, S.A.P.I. de C.V (La Garra claims) (continued)

The Consideration Shares are fair valued using the DLOM method. DLOM is based on the risk arising from the restricted holding period and voluntary escrow set out on the Acquisition. The valuation of the Consideration Shares follows a level 2 fair value measurement. The share price is derived from the market price on the closing date, October 7, 2024, of $2.58, with consideration for the lack of marketability.

The Company has made two payments up to October 31, 2024 in connection with the tenement taxes owed to Governmental Entities: $1,095,768 (US$810,000) on March 6, 2024 and $1,092,806 (US$696,500) on May 17, 2024.

As of October 31, 2024, the Company has recognized exploration and evaluation assets of $17,622,287, an obligation to issue shares of $10,873,471, corresponding to the Consideration Shares to be issued, share capital of $648,905, corresponding to the Consideration Shares issued and the remaining liability to the sellers of $3,521,602 recorded as part of accounts payable and accrued liabilities, of which $1,498,410 is presented as current and $2,023,192 is presented as non-current, on the Condensed Consolidated Interim Statements of Financial Position. This acquisition also includes $70,699 of legal fees and other transaction costs incurred in relation to the acquisition.

11. Financial Instruments

Fair value of financial instruments

The Company applied the following fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value into three levels:

The three levels are defined as follows:

  • Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
  • Level 2 - inputs to valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for the full term of the financial instrument.
  • Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company's financial instruments are cash and cash equivalent, investments, other receivables, due to related party, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. All these financial instruments are carried on the condensed consolidated interim statements of financial position at amortized cost except investments, which are carried at fair value through profit or loss using a level 2 fair value measurement (Note 6). The fair values of these financial instruments approximate their carrying value due to their short-term nature.

The Company's financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, including liquidity risk, credit risk and interest rate risk.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company's approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. As at October 31, 2024, the Company had a cash and cash equivalent balance of $122,584,704 to settle liabilities of $3,985,802. All of the Company's financial liabilities have contractual maturities of less than 30 days and are subject to normal trade terms, except for the long-term portion of the Cash Consideration of the acquisition of Goanna Resources. Historically, the Company's sole source of funding has been the issuance of equity securities for cash, primarily through private placements. The Company's access to financing is always uncertain. There can be no assurance of continued access to significant equity funding.

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices will affect the Company's earnings or the value of its financial instruments. Market risk is comprised of commodity price risk and interest rate risk. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control exposures within acceptable limits, while maximizing returns. The Company is not exposed to significant market risk.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. An immaterial amount of interest rate exposure exists in respect of cash balances on the statement of financial position. As a result, the Company is not exposed to material cash flow interest rate risk on its cash balances.

11. Financial Instruments (continued)

Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that a variation in exchange rates between the Canadian dollar, United States dollar, and Mexican Peso will affect the Company's operations and financial results. The Company and its subsidiaries are exposed to foreign currency risk to the extent that it has monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies.

The Company measures the effect on total assets or total receipts of reasonably foreseen changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. The analysis is used to determine if these risks are material to the financial position of the Company. A 1% change in foreign exchange rate of CAD to MXN would increase/decrease the net and comprehensive loss for the period ended October 31, 2024, by approximately $180,742 (six-month period ended October 31, 2023: $192,000). Actual financial results for the coming year will vary since the balances of financial assets are expected to decline as funds are used for Company expenses.

Price risk

This risk relates to fluctuations in commodity and equity prices. The Company closely monitors commodity prices of precious and base metals, individual equity movements, and the stock market to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company. Fluctuations in pricing may be significant.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation or commitment that it has entered with the Company. The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by the counterparties. The carrying amounts of financial assets best represent the maximum credit risk exposure at the reporting date. Cash and cash equivalent are held with reputable banks in Canada. The long-term credit rating of these banks, as determined by Standard and Poor's, was A+. As at October 31, 2024, the cash on deposit at these institutions was more than federally insured limits. However, management believes credit risk is low given the good credit ratings of the banks.

12. Capital Management

The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, based on the funds available to the Company, in order to support the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company's management to sustain future development of the business.

The Panuco-Copala property in which the Company currently has an interest are in the exploration stage, as such the Company has historically relied on the equity markets to fund its activities. In order to carry out the planned exploration and pay for administrative costs, the Company will spend its existing working capital and raise additional amounts as needed. The Company will continue to assess new properties and seek to acquire an interest in additional properties if it feels there is sufficient geologic or economic potential and if it has adequate financial resources to do so.

The capital structure of the Company consists of shareholders' equity, comprising issued capital and deficit. The Company is not exposed to any externally imposed requirements. Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable.
