1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
Metallic Minerals Corp. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of British Columbia on May 3, 2007. The Company was registered as an extra-territorial corporation under the Business Corporations Act (Yukon) on July 10, 2009. The Company is involved in activities that include the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. The Company's head office is located at 904 - 409 Granville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 1T2. The Company is a reporting issuer and trades on the TSX Venture Exchange in Canada under the symbol "MMG" and the US OTCQB Exchange under the symbol "MMNGF".
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") 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. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain additional equity financing and achieve profitable operations. The Company has sustained losses from operations and has an ongoing requirement for capital investment to acquire and explore its mineral properties.
The Company incurred a net loss of $4,339,120 for the six months ended January 31, 2024 (2023: $2,941,667), and as of that date had an accumulated deficit of $41,266,752 (July 31, 2023: $36,927,632). At January 31, 2024, the Company had a total of $2,023,145 of current assets (July 31, 2023: $6,652,408) and a working capital of $1,897,664 (July 31, 2023: $6,005,923).
While the Company has been successful in obtaining the necessary financing to cover its corporate operating costs and advance the development of its projects through the issuance of common shares and the exercise of warrants in the past, there is no assurance it will be able to raise funds in this manner in the future. There remain material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
The Company's condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2023, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS.
The Company uses the same accounting policies and methods of computation as in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2023.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on March 28, 2024.
Basis of Consolidation
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the results or financial information of Metallic Minerals Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries as listed in the following table:
Name
Country of IncorporationFunctional currency
Metallic Minerals Corp. 536386 Yukon Inc. 1219166 B.C. Ltd. Metallic Minerals USA Inc.
Canada Canada Canada USACAD CAD CAD CADA subsidiary is an entity in which the Company has control, where control requires exposure or rights to variable returns and the ability to affect those returns through power over the investee. The results of each subsidiary will continue to be included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company until the date that the Company's control over the subsidiary ceases. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
3. USE OF ESTIMATES, ASSUMPTIONS AND JUDGMENTS
In preparing these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2023.
4. RECEIVABLES
The receivables balance as at January 31, 2024 and July 31, 2023 is comprised of the following:

A payment of $280,000 was made upon engagement and to date invoices of $263,240 have been drawn down on the advance.
As at January 31, 2024 and July 31, 2023, there are deposits of $33,750 in relation to the Company's exploration programs and a deposit of $30,736 has been made in relation to a corporate credit card.

LA PLATA PROJECT |
Pursuant to an option agreement dated September 10, 2019, as amended, the Company acquired an option to acquire a 100% interest in the La Plata copper-silver-gold-PGE property in southwest Colorado from two arms-length vendors. The road accessible La Plata property, which is approximately 10 km northeast of the town of Mancos, Colorado, covers approximately 44 km2 in the historic high-grade La Plata mining district.
In order to earn the 100% interest in the La Plata property, the Company has the following commitments:
Issue 1,250,000 units to each of the two Shareholders of the optionor within 10 days of receipt of final Exchange approval of the Option Agreement. 2,500,000 units were issued on September 26, 2019 with each warrant having an exercise price of $0.24. The units were valued at $582,368;
Issue 1,250,000 units to each of the two Shareholders of the optionor 30 days after a plan of operations permit is issued for the property. On July 28, 2021 the agreement was amended to deem the date of issuance of the plan of operations permit for these units to be July 15, 2021 with 2,500,000 units issued on July 29, 2021 with each warrant having an exercise price of $0.62. The units were valued at $1,312,956;
Issue 1,250,000 units to each of the two Shareholders of the optionor on or before the first anniversary that the plan of operations permit is actually issued for this property (first anniversary date being January 5, 2024); 2,500,000 units were issued on January 5, 2024 with each warrant having an exercise price of $0.38. The units were valued at $1,041,120;
Issue 1,250,000 units to each of the two Shareholders of the optionor on or before the second anniversary that the plan of operations permit is actually issued for this property (second anniversary date being January 5, 2025); and
Pay US$250,000 to each of the two Shareholders of the optionor on or before the third anniversary that the plan of operations permit is actually issued for this Property (third anniversary date being January 5, 2026) and 90 days after the completion of a preliminary economic assessment on the property.
Upon issuance, each of the units will comprise one common share and one-half of a share purchase warrant, with each full warrant exercisable into one common share of the Company for a period of 36 months from issuance at an exercise price equal to 120% of the 20-day volume weighted average trading price of the Company's common shares on the TSX-V on the business day immediately preceding the date of issuance.
The La Plata property will be subject to a 2% NSR and the Company will have the ability to buy down the NSR to 1.5%.
During the year ended July 31, 2023, the Company acquired 100% interest in 8 patented mineral claims within the La Plata mining district in southwest Colorado. The claims are surrounded by, and contiguous with, unpatented mining claims held by the Company within the greater La Plata property claim outline. These interests were acquired by one-time cash payments totaling $83,345 (US$60,000) and the issuance of 275,000 common shares (valued at $68,750).
KENO SILVER PROJECT

The Keno Silver project directly adjoins Hecla Mining's Keno Hill operations which are undergoing final mine commissioning and start-up.
Keno-Lightning Property
The Keno-Lightning property, which includes Homestake, is the largest property within the Keno Silver project and is subject to a 3% Net Smelter Royalty ("NSR"). The Company has the option to buy back up to 2% of this NSR. The Company acquired additional mining claims during the year ended July 31, 2022 for consideration of $218,000 in value.

Gram Property
The Company owns 100% of the Gram property which consists of 42 claims covering approximately 8.7 km2 on the east side of the Keno Hill silver district. The Gram property is subject to a 2% NSR for precious metals and a 1% NSR for base metals and the Company has the option to buy back the full NSR.
