Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND LIQUIDITY: | 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, 2022, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations, had an accumulated deficit of $$54,931,753 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 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 promissory notes. |

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: | 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, i-Minerals USA, Inc. and CKD Ventures Ltd. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Company’s fiscal year-end is April 30 th 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 Level 3 - 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, 2022, the promissory notes had a fair value of $22,960,412 (April 30, 2021 – $20,819,200). The Company had certain Level 3 liabilities required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with US GAAP as at January 31, 2022 and April 30, 2021. As at January 31, 2022 and April 30, 2021, the Company’s Level 3 liabilities consisted of promissory notes. The resulting Level 3 liabilities have no active market and are required to be measured at their fair value each reporting period based on information that is unobservable. A summary of the Company’s Level 3 liabilities as at January 31, 2022 and April 30, 2021 is as follows: Summary of Liabilities January 31, 2022 $ April 30, 2021 $ Non-employee options (Note 7) Beginning fair value - 16,541 Transfer value on exercise - - Fair value of options on vesting - - Change in fair value - - Adoption of ASU 2018-07 adjustment - (16,541) Ending fair value - - Promissory notes (Note 6) 34,526,937 32,029,474 Total Level 3 liabilities 34,526,937 32,029,474 Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as at January 31, 2022 and April 30, 2021. 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 nine months ended January 31, 2022, loss per share excludes $2,250,000 (2021 – $2,750,000) potentially dilutive common shares (related to outstanding options and warrants) as their effect was anti-dilutive. Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements Income Taxes In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 will simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. For public business entities, the amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Effective May 1, 2021, the Company adopted the new standard. The adoption of this ASU did not result in any adjustments to the financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Financial Instruments - Credit Losses In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 replaced the incurred loss impairment methodology under current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. ASU 2016-13 requires use of a forward-looking expected credit loss model for accounts receivables, loans, and other financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. In October 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Effective Dates”, to finalize the effective date delays for private companies, not-for-profits, and smaller reporting companies applying the CECL standards. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has not early adopted this update and it will become effective on April 1, 2023 assuming the Company will remain an emerging growth company. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this standard on its consolidated financial statements. |

MINERAL PROPERTY INTEREST AND DEFERRED DEVELOPMENT COSTS: | 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 (now March 2042, see subsequent events Note 12) at which time they will be held by us contingent on undertaking mining operations (amended, see Note 12). In May 2017, the Idaho Department of Lands accepted the Company’s 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. |

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, December 3, 2020, March 9, 2021, April 15, 2021, May 10, 2021, June 15, 2021, July 15, 2021, August 12, 2021, September 13, 2021, October 13, 2021, November 15, 2021, December 15, 2021, January 13, 2022 and February 15, 2022 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, this change was accounted for prospectively using the effective interest rate that equates the carrying amount to the expected future cash flows. 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.

SHARE CAPITAL: | 7. SHARE CAPITAL: Common shares a) Authorized: Unlimited number of common shares, without par value. The holders of common shares are entitled to receive dividends which are declared from time to time, and are entitled to one vote per share at meetings of the Company. All shares are ranked equally with regards to the Company’s residual assets. b) Stock transactions: During the nine months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not complete any stock transactions. c) Stock options: The Company has granted stock options under the terms of its Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides that the directors of the Company may grant options to purchase common shares to directors, officers, employees and service providers of the Company on terms that the directors of the Company may determine are within the limitations set forth in the Plan. The maximum number of shares available under the Plan is limited to 10% of the issued common shares. The maximum term of stock options is ten years. All stock options vest on the date of grant, unless otherwise stated. As at January 31, 2022, the Company had 7,123,021 stock options available for grant pursuant to the Plan (April 30, 2021 – 6,623,021). The Company’s stock options outstanding as at January 31, 2022 and the changes for the period then ended are as follows: Stock Options Outstanding Number Outstanding Weighted Average Exercise Price (in CAD$) Balance outstanding at April 30, 2020 2,950,000 0.26 Expired (200,000) 0.25 Balance outstanding at April 30, 2021 2,750,000 0.26 Expired (500,000) 0.30 Balance outstanding at January 31, 2022 2,250,000 0.25 Balance exercisable at January 31, 2022 1,000,000 0.25 Summary of stock options at January 31, 2022: Summary of stock options Security Number Outstanding Number Exercisable Exercise Price (CAD$) Expiry Date Remaining Contractual Life (years) Stock options 1,000,000 1,000,000 0.25 April 20, 2022 0.22 Stock options 1,450,000 (1) 200,000 (1) 0.25 August 9, 2023 1.52 Notes: (1) Non-Employee Stock Options In accordance with the guidance of ASU 2018-07, the measurement and classification of stock options awarded to non-employees is aligned with that for employees. 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. As at January 31, 2022, the unamortized compensation cost of options is $93,382 and the intrinsic value of options expected to vest is $nil. |

Prior Periods Financial Revisions | |
PRIOR PERIODS FINANCIAL REVISIONS: | 11. PRIOR PERIODS FINANCIAL REVISIONS: The Company determined that accrued interest on the promissory notes are subject to withholding taxes as the Lender controls over 25% of the common shares of the Company and the Company’s debt to equity ratio exceeded certain statutory limits that caused interest expense deductibility to be partially restricted. The withholding taxes are payable based on the amount of restricted interest, when such interest is paid or at the end of a fiscal year and are accounted for as a deemed dividend in accordance with ASC 740-10-15-4. The impact of the error on financial statements for the nine months ended January 31, 2021 are presented below. There was no impact on the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Loss or the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Impact as at and for the nine months ended January 31, 2021 Prior Period Revisions As Previously Reported $ As Revised $ Accounts payable and accrued liabilities (withholding tax) - 809,515 Capital Deficit: Accumulated deficit (51,770,260) (52,579,755) Total capital deficit (30,679,831) (31,489,326) Management also assessed the materiality of the effect of the errors on the Company’s prior annual financial statements, both quantitatively and qualitatively, in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 99, “Materiality” and SAB No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements”. Management concluded the error was not material to any previously issued financial statements. Consequently, the Company will correct this error prospectively and revise its financial statements when the balance sheets, statements of loss and cash flows for such periods are included in future filings (“the Revisions”). The Revisions have no impact on net loss or net cash used in operating activities as previously reported. |

Fair Value Measurement, Policy [Policy Text Block] | 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 Level 3 - 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, 2022, the promissory notes had a fair value of $22,960,412 (April 30, 2021 – $20,819,200). The Company had certain Level 3 liabilities required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with US GAAP as at January 31, 2022 and April 30, 2021. As at January 31, 2022 and April 30, 2021, the Company’s Level 3 liabilities consisted of promissory notes. The resulting Level 3 liabilities have no active market and are required to be measured at their fair value each reporting period based on information that is unobservable. A summary of the Company’s Level 3 liabilities as at January 31, 2022 and April 30, 2021 is as follows: Summary of Liabilities January 31, 2022 $ April 30, 2021 $ Non-employee options (Note 7) Beginning fair value - 16,541 Transfer value on exercise - - Fair value of options on vesting - - Change in fair value - - Adoption of ASU 2018-07 adjustment - (16,541) Ending fair value - - Promissory notes (Note 6) 34,526,937 32,029,474 Total Level 3 liabilities 34,526,937 32,029,474 Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as at January 31, 2022 and April 30, 2021. |
Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block] | 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 nine months ended January 31, 2022, loss per share excludes $2,250,000 (2021 – $2,750,000) potentially dilutive common shares (related to outstanding options and warrants) as their effect was anti-dilutive. Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 will simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. For public business entities, the amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Effective May 1, 2021, the Company adopted the new standard. The adoption of this ASU did not result in any adjustments to the financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements |
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses | Financial Instruments - Credit Losses In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 replaced the incurred loss impairment methodology under current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. ASU 2016-13 requires use of a forward-looking expected credit loss model for accounts receivables, loans, and other financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. In October 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Effective Dates”, to finalize the effective date delays for private companies, not-for-profits, and smaller reporting companies applying the CECL standards. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has not early adopted this update and it will become effective on April 1, 2023 assuming the Company will remain an emerging growth company. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this standard on its consolidated financial statements. |
