Inc.
Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial StatementsFor the nine months ended January 31, 2021 and 2020 |
(Unaudited - Expressed in US dollars except where otherwise indicated) |
1. | NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND LIQUIDITY: |
I-Minerals Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada, in 1984. The Company is listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol “IMA” and the OTCQB marketplace under the symbol “IMAHF”. |
The Company’s principal business is the development of the Helmer-Bovill industrial mineral property (“the Property”) located in Latah County, Idaho. Since inception, the Company has been in the exploration and evaluation stage but moved into the development stage in fiscal 2018. In fiscal 2019, the Company reverted back to the evaluation stage as management determined that the Feasibility Study on the property should be considered non-current. The Helmer-Bovill property is comprised of eleven mineral leases that host potentially economic deposits of feldspar, quartz and kaolinitic clays, primarily kaolinite and halloysite. |
Basis of Presentation and Going Concern |
The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information as well as Article 10 of Regulation S-X on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next year. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. At January 31, 2021, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations, had an accumulated deficit of $51,770,260 since inception and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which casts substantial doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, that it may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. |
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to develop the Property and to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Although the Company has been successful in the past in obtaining financing, there is no assurance that it will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that such financing will be on terms advantageous to the Company. The Company has been receiving funds from a company controlled by a director of the Company through promissory notes (Note 6). Management considers that the Company will be able to obtain additional funds by equity financing and/or promissory notes; however, there is no assurance of additional funding being available. The Company has historically satisfied its capital needs primarily by issuing equity securities and/or promissory notes. Management plans to continue to provide for its capital needs by issuing equity securities and/or promissory notes. |
On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization ("WHO") announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (the "COVID-19 outbreak”) and the risk to the international community as the virus spreads globally beyond its point of origin. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. |

2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: |
Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measures |
The book value of cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of those instruments. The fair value hierarchy under US GAAP is based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value which are the following: |
Level 1 - | quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
Level 2 - | observable inputs other than Level I, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active prices whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable; and |
Level3 - | assets and liabilities whose significant value drivers are unobservable by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. |
The Company’s promissory notes are based on Level 3 inputs in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 fair value hierarchy. The Company calculated the fair value of these instruments by discounting future cash flows using rates representative of current borrowing rates. At January 31, 2021, the promissory notes had a fair value of $21,166,599 (April 30, 2020 – $18,347,095). |
Earnings (Loss) Per Share |
The basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per common share is computed similar to basic loss per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. For the three and nine months ended January 31, 2021, loss per share excludes 2,750,000 (January 31, 2020 – 2,950,000) potentially dilutive common shares (related to outstanding options and warrants as well as shares committed to be issued pursuant to the promissory notes) as their effect was anti-dilutive. |
Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements |
Fair Value Measurements |
In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2018-13, "Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement" which adds the disclosure of the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. Certain alternatives apply. Effective May 1, 2020, the Company adopted the new standard. The adoption of this ASU did not result in any adjustments to the financial statements. |
Compensation – Stock Compensation |
In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting” (“ASU 2018-07”), which aligns the measurement and classification guidance for share-based payments to nonemployees with that for employees, with certain exceptions. It expands the scope of ASC 718 to include share-based payments granted to nonemployees in exchange for goods or services used or consumed in the entity’s own operations and supersedes the guidance in ASC 505-50. The ASU retains the existing cost attribution guidance, which requires entities to recognize compensation cost for nonemployee awards in the same period and in the same manner (i.e. capitalize or expense) they would if they paid cash for the goods or services, but it moves the guidance to ASC 718. Effective May 1, 2020, the Company adopted the new standard. Upon adoption, the Company applied the modified retrospective transition approach and recorded an adjustment on May 1, 2020 to decrease derivative liabilities by $16,541 and decrease opening deficit by $16,541. |

3. | MINERAL PROPERTY INTEREST AND DEFERRED DEVELOPMENT COSTS: |
Helmer-Bovill Property – Latah County, Idaho |
The Company has an undivided 100% interest in 11 State of Idaho mineral leases. The State of Idaho mineral leases are subject to a 5% production royalty on gross sales. The mineral leases are in good standing until March 1, 2023 at which time they will be held by us contingent on production. |
In May 2017, the Idaho Department of Lands accepted our operation and reclamation plan. Together with a water rights permit from the Idaho Department of Water Resources, we were able to proceed with development and construction of the mine, subject to obtaining sufficient financing. As a result, management made the decision to begin capitalizing all development expenditures directly related to the Helmer-Bovill Property. In February 2019, the Company determined that the Feasibility Study should be considered non-current and accordingly, the Company has returned to the evaluation stage for accounting purposes. |

Total promissory notes | 31,829,474 | 27,589,617 |
The Company has Third Promissory Notes, Fifth Promissory Notes and Sixth Promissory Notes due to a company controlled by a director of the Company (the “Lender”). The Third Promissory Notes were due on March 31, 2019. On March 27, 2019, an amending agreement was entered into extending the maturity date of the Promissory Notes from March 31, 2019 to June 30, 2019 for no consideration. On June 28, 2019, the Company entered into an amending agreement with the Lender further extending this maturity date to October 31, 2019 for no consideration. The Fifth Promissory Notes were due on December 31, 2019. On October 25, 2019, the Company entered into an amending agreement with the Lender extending the maturity date for both notes, for no consideration, to the earlier of (i) June 30, 2020 and (ii) 60 days after a pre-feasibility study has been filed on SEDAR. The Sixth Promissory Notes have the same maturity date. On June 4, 2020, all three promissory notes were extended to December 15, 2020 for no consideration. On December 3, 2020, the maturity date was extended to March 15, 2021 for no consideration. On March 9, 2021 the maturity date was extended to April 15, 2021 for no consideration. |
In accordance with the guidance of ASC 470-50 and ASC 470-60, the Company determined that the March 27, 2019, June 28, 2019, October 25, 2019, June 4, 2020 and December 3, 2020 extension agreements qualified as troubled debt restructurings. However, as the Company did not transfer assets or grant an equity interest to the Lender and since the carrying amount of the promissory notes at the time of the restructurings did not exceed the total future cash payments specified by the new terms, there was no accounting impact of the troubled debt modifications. |
Certain conditions may result in early repayment including immediate repayment in the event a person currently not related to the Company acquires more than 40% of the outstanding common shares of the Company. |
Third Promissory Notes |
The Third Promissory Notes bear interest at the rate of 12% per annum and during the nine months ended January 31, 2021, the Company recorded interest of $2,276,143 (2020 - $2,025,196). During the three months ended January 31, 2021, the Company recorded interest of $783,879 (2020 - $697,432). Interest is payable semi-annually as calculated on May 31st and November 30th of each year. Interest is to be paid either in cash, in common shares or deemed an advance of principal at the option of the Lender. A 5% late payment penalty may apply if payment is not paid within ten days after the due date. During the nine months ended January 31, 2021, the Lender elected to have interest payable from December 1, 2019 to November 30, 2020 of $2,911,923 deemed as advances. During the three months ended January 31, 2021, the Lender elected to have interest payable from June 1, 2020 to November 30, 2020 of $1,498,481 deemed as advances. |

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report constitute "forward-looking statements.” These statements, identified by words such as “plan,” "anticipate,” "believe,” "estimate,” "should,” "expect" and similar expressions include our expectations and objectives regarding our future financial position, operating results and business strategy. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among others, general business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties; the actual results of current exploration and development activities; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; changes in labour costs or other costs of production; future mineral prices; equipment or processes to operate as anticipated; accidents, labour disputes and other risks of the mining industry, including but not limited to environmental hazards, cave-ins, pit-wall failures, flooding, rock bursts and other acts of God or unfavourable operating conditions and losses; delays in obtaining governmental approvals or financing or in the completion of development or construction activities, as well as those factors discussed in the section titled "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K which was filed with the SEC on July 28, 2020.
Forward looking statements are based on a number of material factors and assumptions, including the results of exploration/development and drilling activities, the availability and final receipt of required approvals, licenses and permits, that sufficient working capital is available to complete proposed exploration/development and drilling activities, that contracted parties provide goods and/or services on the agreed time frames, the equipment necessary for exploration/development is available as scheduled and does not incur unforeseen break downs, that no labour shortages or delays are incurred and that no unusual geological or technical problems occur. While we consider these assumptions may be reasonable based on information currently available to it, they may prove to be incorrect. Actual results may vary from such forward-looking information for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to risks and uncertainties disclosed in the section titled “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report.
We intend to discuss in our Quarterly Reports and Annual Reports any events or circumstances that occurred during the period to which such documents relate that are reasonably likely to cause actual events or circumstances to differ materially from those disclosed in this Quarterly Report. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all of such factors and to assess in advance the impact of each such factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of such factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forwarding looking statement.
CAUTIONARY NOTE TO U.S. INVESTORS REGARDING ESTIMATES OF MEASURED, INDICATED AND INFERRED RESOURCES AND PROVEN AND PROBABLE RESERVES
The terms “mineral reserve”, “proven mineral reserve” and “probable mineral reserve” as used in this Quarterly Report are Canadian mining terms as defined in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the “CIM”) – CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended (the “CIM Definition Standards”). These definitions differ from the definitions in the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Industry Guide 7 (“SEC Industry Guide 7”) under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Under SEC Industry Guide 7 standards, a “final” or “bankable” feasibility study is required to report reserves, the three-year historical average price is used in any reserve or cash flow analysis to designate reserves, and the primary environmental analysis or report must be filed with the appropriate governmental authority.
In addition, the terms “mineral resource”, “measured mineral resource”, “indicated mineral resource” and “inferred mineral resource” are defined in and required to be disclosed by NI 43-101; however, these terms are not defined terms under SEC Industry Guide 7 and are normally not permitted to be used in reports and registration statements filed with the SEC. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of a mineral deposit in these categories will ever be converted into reserves. “Inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all, or any part, of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, except in rare cases. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists or is economically or legally mineable. Disclosure of unit measures in a resource is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute “reserves” by SEC standards as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures.
16
Accordingly, information contained in this Quarterly Report and any documents incorporated by reference herein contain descriptions of our mineral deposits that may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under the United States federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.
As used in this Quarterly Report, unless the context otherwise requires, “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” and “I-Minerals” refers to I-Minerals Inc. All dollar amounts in this Quarterly Report are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated.
PART I
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
General
We were incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada in 1984. In 2004, we changed our corporate jurisdiction from a British Columbia company to a Canadian corporation. In December 2011, we amended our articles to change our name from “i-minerals inc.” to “I-Minerals Inc.”
The Company is engaged in the exploration, evaluation and development of our Helmer-Bovill industrial minerals property (the “Helmer-Bovill Property”). The Helmer-Bovill Property, in which we hold a 100% interest, is comprised of 11 mineral leases totaling 5,140.64 acres located approximately 6 miles northwest of Bovill, Latah County, Idaho. Since inception, the Company has been in the exploration stage but moved into the development stage in fiscal 2018. In fiscal 2019, the Company reverted back to the evaluation stage.
Our principal executive office is located at Suite 880, 580 Hornby Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada and our telephone number is (877) 303-6573. Our operations office is located at 13403 N. Government Way, #102, Hayden, Idaho.
To date, we have not earned significant revenues from the operation of our Helmer-Bovill Property. Accordingly, we are dependent on debt and equity financing as our primary source of operating working capital. Our capital resources are largely determined by the strength of the junior resource markets and by the status of our projects in relation to these markets, and its ability to compete for investor support of its projects.
Our Principal Projects
Our activities at the Helmer-Bovill Property are focused on developing the Bovill Project.
The Bovill Project
Our lead project, the Bovill Project, is a strategically located long term resource of quartz, potassium feldspar (“K-spar”), halloysite and kaolinite formed through weathering of a border phase of the Idaho Batholith causing all minerals to be contained within a fine white clay-sand mixture referred to as “primary clay.” The Bovill Project is located within 3 miles of state highways with electricity and natural gas already at the property boundary.
Since 2010, our exploration work has focused diamond drilling on the Bovill Project. To date, a total of 322 diamond drill holes have been drilled totaling 35,909 feet. As a result of these drill campaigns, four deposits have been identified: Kelly’s Hump, Kelly’s Hump South, Middle Ridge and WBL.
In June 2014, we completed an updated pre-feasibility study on the Bovill Kaolin Project (the “2014 PFS”) and on March 8, 2016, we announced the economic results of our initial feasibility study (the “2016 FS”). However, based on the results of an updated independent market study it is apparent that fundamental changes in the businesses that consume our minerals has taken place over the past several years. These changes include offshoring and reformulation wherein industries that had previously used K-spar for example have reformulated their production batches using alternate minerals. Markets do exist for all of the minerals contained within the Bovill Kaolin Project but not in the volumes contemplated in the 2016 FS. Accordingly, the 2016 FS is considered not to be current and should not be relied upon.
17
The mineral resources stated in the 2016 FS remain current and have recently been re-stated in a standalone technical report prepared by SRK Consulting (U.S.) recently completed an updated resource estimate. The updated mineral resource statement from this report, summarized below, contains the same tonnages and grades as were disclosed in the 2016 FS and is the basis of the reserves defined in the 2020 Pre-Feasibility Report.
2020 Pre-Feasibility Study
The Company engaged MillCreek Engineering of Salt Lake City, Utah to estimate the capital and operating costs for a smaller plant capable of producing up to 20,000 tons of metakaolin and 10,000 tons of halloysite per year. The estimated Operating Costs and Capital Cost fell in line with expectations and the Company retained MillCreek to complete a Pre-Feasibility Study of a metakaolin and halloysite operation. It is envisioned that the sand fraction (K-spar and quartz) will be screened and sold into lower value industrial applications.
On March 3, 2020, we announced a pre-feasibility study of our metakaolin and halloysite operation (the “2020 PFS”). The 2020 PFS was led by Millcreek Engineering, who were responsible for overall project management and the process plant and infrastructure design (including OPEX and CAPEX) and economic analyses. Other engineering and geological services were provided by Mine Development Associates (mine modelling; ore scheduling; mineral reserve estimation); SRK Consulting (U.S.) Inc. (mineral resource estimation); and, HDR Engineering Inc. (environmental review).
Highlights of the PFS include:
The 2020 PFS is based on the production of two minerals, halloysite and kaolinite. The halloysite is beneficiated into two mineral products; HalloPure which is about 70% halloysite and 30% kaolinite and premium quality Ultra-Hallopure which is greater than 90% halloysite with the balance kaolinite. The quality of Bovill Halloysite is regarded as being exceptional and the research on halloysite applications has dramatically increased over the past 5 years involving polymers, filtration, extruded polystyrene insulation, green technology and life sciences. The kaolinite is flash calcined to produce metakaolin, a Supplementary Cementitious Material (“SCM”) and highly reactive pozzolan that when added to concrete increases strength and durability, reduces permeability, reduces the effect of alkali-silica reactivity and increases resistance to chloride ingress and sulfate attack. By using metakaolin the sustainability of the concrete is increased through longer service life and the carbon footprint is reduced by lowering the quantity of Portland cement. Sand is produced during the production process which meets the specifications of a number of applications including arena sand, USGA bunker and top-dressing sand. There is a potential upside from sale of sand which is not included in the project economics and accordingly the sand is not included in the reserves.
A conservative approach to the build-up of sales has been assumed with full production being achieved in the first quarter of the 5th year of operation as some product applications will require development. There is potential for full production to be achieved earlier which would have a corresponding positive effect on the NPV and IRR.

Plan of Operation and Outlook
The company is taking a sequential approach to the development of the Bovill Project. The first phase is the amendment of our Operations and Reclamation Plan (“ORP”) with the Idaho Department of Lands (the “IDL”). With the changes to the business plan, now focusing on the production of halloysite and metakaolin, the mine plan was developed based on areas with increased concentrations of halloysite and kaolin. This resulted in a reconfiguration of the open pits where these minerals are proposed to be mined. As a result of the reconfiguration of the open pits, the areas of disturbance and road design to service the mining operations has changed, triggering the need to amend the previously approved ORP. In general, the disturbed area is smaller than the disturbed area in the prior ORP. The amended ORP was submitted to the IDL on August 28, 2020.
Concurrent with the updating of the ORP, the development of a market for sand is ongoing. Target markets include bunker sand and top dressing for golf courses, equestrian sand and other applications. Market development for the halloysite is ongoing with global interest in our products continuing to develop with strong interest being shown by several South Korean companies. Treated halloysite is also being tested in air filtration activities as an environmentally friendly alternative to activated charcoal.
Upon approval of the ORP, we intend to initiate a Feasibility Study (“FS”) and Front End Engineering Design Study (“FEED Study”). The amended ORP was submitted to the IDL on August 28, 2020. The company received initial comments from the IDL on October 21, 2020 and responded to such comments on November 6, 2020 with formal approval of the ORP being received on December 18, 2020. At this time, we expect to commence the FS and FEED Study in calendar Q2 or Q3 2021.
Results of Operation
Nine months ended January 31, 2021
We recorded a net loss of $3,659,485 ($0.04 per share) for the nine months ended January 31, 2021 as compared to a net loss of $3,976,796 ($0.04 per share) for the nine months ended January 31, 2020. The decrease in the net loss recorded for the nine months ended January 31, 2021 as compared to the net loss for the nine months ended January 31, 2020 is the net result of changes to a number of expenses. Of note are the following items:
19
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our aggregate operating, investing and financing activities during the nine months ended January 31, 2021 resulted in a net cash outflow of $153,213 (2020 – outflow of $98,599). As at January 31, 2021, we had a working capital deficiency of $32,638,671.
During the nine months ended January 31, 2021, $902,334 was used in operations (2020 - $1,465,569). During the nine months ended January 31, 2021, we spent $879 on investing activities (2020 - $13,030) and we received $750,000 from financing activities (2020 - $1,380,000).
We have been financed by advances pursuant to promissory notes advanced by BV Lending LLC, an entity controlled by Allen L. Ball, a member of our Board of Directors and our largest shareholder (the “Lender”). During the nine months ended January 31, 2021, the Company was receiving advances pursuant to the Sixth Promissory Notes. As at January 31, 2021, the balance of the promissory notes was $31,829,474.
As at April 30, 2020, the Third Promissory Notes, the Fifth Promissory Notes and the Sixth Promissory Notes had a maturity date of the earlier of (i) June 30, 2020 and (ii) 60 days after a pre-feasibility study has been filed on SEDAR. On June 4, 2020, the promissory notes maturity date was extended from June 30, 2020 to December 15, 2020 for no consideration. All other terms remained the same. On December 3, 2020, the Lender agreed to extend the maturity date of the promissory notes to March 15, 2021 for no consideration. On March 9, 2021, the Lender agreed to extend the maturity date to April 15, 2021 for no consideration.
We have not as yet put into commercial production any mineral properties and as such have no operating revenues. Accordingly, we are dependent on debt and equity financing as its primary source of operating working capital. Our capital resources are largely determined by the strength of the junior resource markets and by the status of our projects in relation to these markets, and our ability to compete for investor support of our projects.
We remain dependent on additional financing to fund development requirements on the Helmer-Bovill property and for general corporate costs. With respect to funds required for capital cost items, State-sponsored debt financing instruments may be available on attractive terms, and we intend to pursue such financial instruments to cover portions of the capital costs associated with placing the Bovill Project deposits into production.
We do not have the ability to internally generate sufficient cash flows to support our operations for the next twelve months. We have been receiving funds from a company controlled by a director of the Company through promissory notes. We have no formal plan in place to address this going concern issue but consider that we will be able to obtain additional funds by equity financing and/or debt financing; however, there is no assurance of additional funding being available.
During 2020, there was an outbreak of COVID-19 that has impacted the economic environment and the capital markets. As the Company is at the stage of exploration and evaluation and is looking to fund mine development leading to production, the impacts of COVID-19 are not determinable at this date. COVID-19 however, could have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operation and cash flows. The Company's liquidity and its ability to continue as a going concern may also be impacted.
20
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to shareholders.
Critical Accounting Policies
Measurement Uncertainty
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We regularly evaluate estimates and assumptions related to the useful life and recoverability of long lived assets, stock-based compensation, valuation of convertible debentures and derivative liabilities, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. We base our estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by us may differ materially and adversely from our estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. The most significant estimates with regard to our condensed consolidated financial statements relate to the determination of fair values of derivative liabilities and stock-based transactions.
Mineral Property Acquisition and Exploration Costs
Mineral property acquisition costs are capitalized when incurred. Acquisition costs include cash consideration and the fair market value of shares issued on the acquisition of mineral property claims.
Costs related to the development of our mineral reserves are capitalized when it has been determined an ore body can be economically developed. The development stage begins when an ore body is determined to be economically recoverable based on proven and probable reserves and appropriate permits are in place, and ends when the production stage or exploitation of reserves begins. Major mine development expenditures are capitalized, including primary development costs such as costs of building access ways, tailings impoundment, development of water supply and infrastructure developments.
Exploration costs include those relating to activities carried out (a) in search of previously unidentified mineral deposits, or (b) at undeveloped concessions. Pre-development activities involve costs incurred in the exploration stage that may ultimately benefit production that are expensed due to the lack of evidence of economic development, which is necessary to demonstrate future recoverability of these expenses. Secondary development costs are incurred for preparation of an ore body for production in a specific ore block or work area, providing a relatively short-lived benefit only to the mine area they relate to, and not to the ore body as a whole.
Once production has commenced, capitalized costs will be depleted using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the proven and probable reserves. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to the Consolidated Statements of Loss in that period.
We assess the carrying cost of our mineral properties for impairment whenever information or circumstances indicate the potential for impairment. Such evaluations compare estimated future net cash flows with our carrying costs and future obligations on an undiscounted basis. If it is determined that the future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the property, a write down to the estimated fair value is charged to the Consolidated Statements of Loss for the period. Where estimates of future net cash flows are not available and where other conditions suggest impairment, management assesses if the carrying value can be recovered.
For significant exploration and development projects, interest is capitalized as part of the historical cost of developing and constructing assets in accordance with ASC 835-20. Interest is capitalized until the asset is ready for service. Capitalized interest is determined by multiplying the Company’s weighted-average borrowing cost on general debt by the average amount of qualifying costs incurred. Once an asset subject to interest capitalization is completed and placed in service, the associated capitalized interest is expensed through depletion or impairment.
