NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND LIQUIDITY: | 9 Months Ended |
Jan. 31, 2023 | |
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. In 2004, we changed our corporate jurisdiction from a British Columbia company to a Canadian corporation. The Company is listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol “IMA” and the OTC Pink Market under the symbol “IMAHF”. On March 9, 2023, the Company announced that the Company’s name will change to “Highcliff Metals Corp.” and the issued and outstanding common shares will be consolidated on a ratio of up to ten (10) pre-consolidated shares to one (1) post-consolidated share, subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval. The Company’s principal business was the development of the Helmer-Bovill industrial mineral property (“the Property”) located in Latah County, Idaho. 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. On September 14, 2022, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with BV Lending, LLC, an Idaho limited liability company, controlled by a major shareholder and former director of the Company and the Company's subsidiary, I-Minerals USA, Inc., an Idaho company that owns the leases that comprise the Helmer-Bovill Property, to sell all of the issued and outstanding common shares of I-Minerals USA Inc. to BV Lending, LLC. The Transaction was approved by shareholders of the Company at the Annual General and Special Meeting held on March 2, 2023. On March 6, 2023, the Transaction closed (Note 11). 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”) 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, 2023, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations, had an accumulated deficit of $ 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 continue business operations. 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. There is no assurance of additional funding being available. As a result, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. |

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 carried at amortized cost. 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, 2023 and April 30, 2022. 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, 2023, loss per share excludes 1,250,000 (2022 – 2,250,000) potentially dilutive common shares (related to outstanding options) as their effect was anti-dilutive. Held-for-sale assets and liabilities Items are classified as being held-for-sale once they meet criteria relating to the intention to sell and the likelihood of a sale taking place. All of I-Minerals USA’s assets and liabilities have been accounted for as held-for-sale. 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 previously had 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. In March 2022, the Company amended the terms of the State of Idaho mineral leases through the Idaho Department of Lands (the “IDL”) and acquired these amended leases at an auction. Of the 11 mineral leases that the Company held previously, 8 mineral leases were amended and acquired at auction and the Company elected to relinquish 3 of the mineral leases. The amended leases now expire in March 2042 and, upon commercial production on one lease, other leases can be held through mine development or exploration work. 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, the Company was 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. |

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | 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 | 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 carried at amortized cost. 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, 2023 and April 30, 2022. |
Loss Per Share | 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, 2023, loss per share excludes 1,250,000 (2022 – 2,250,000) potentially dilutive common shares (related to outstanding options) as their effect was anti-dilutive. |
Held-for-sale assets and liabilities | Held-for-sale assets and liabilities Items are classified as being held-for-sale once they meet criteria relating to the intention to sell and the likelihood of a sale taking place. All of I-Minerals USA’s assets and liabilities have been accounted for as held-for-sale. |
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses | 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. |
