SILVER NORTH RESOURCES LTD.
(Formerly Alianza Minerals Ltd.)
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 AND 2023
(Unaudited, presented in Canadian Dollars)
1.NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
Silver North Resources Ltd. (formerly Alianza Minerals Ltd.) (the “Company” or “Silver North”) was incorporated in Alberta on October 21, 2005 under the Business Corporations Act of Alberta and its registered office is Suite 410, 325 Howe Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada, V6C 1Z7. On April 25, 2008 the Company filed for a certificate of continuance and is continuing as a BC Company under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The Company changed its name and consolidated its shares (“Consolidation”) on August 14, 2023 and began trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) under the symbol “SNAG”.
The Company is an exploration stage company and is engaged principally in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. The recovery of the Company’s investment in its exploration and evaluation assets is dependent upon the future discovery, development and sale of minerals, upon the ability to raise sufficient capital to finance these activities, and/or upon the sale of these properties.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 obtaining additional financing through the issuance of common shares or obtaining joint venture or property sale agreements for one or more properties.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to raise funds in which case the Company may be unable to meet its obligations. Should the Company be unable to realize on its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business, the net realizable value of its assets may be materially less than the amounts recorded on the condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include adjustments to amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue operations.
Adverse financial market conditions and volatility increase the uncertainty of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern given the need to both manage expenditures and to raise additional funds. The Company is experiencing, and has experienced, negative operating cash flows. The Company will continue to search for new or alternate sources of financing but anticipates that the current market conditions may impact the ability to source such funds. Accordingly, these material uncertainties cast significant doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
As at June 30, 2024, the Company had a working capital of $331,094 (September 30, 2023: working capital deficiency of $683,757) and shareholders’ equity of $6,764,614 (September 30, 2023: $6,279,303).
2.BASIS OF PREPARATION
Statement of Compliance
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” (“IAS 34”) using accounting policies consistent with IFRS Accounting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations of the IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”).

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 AND 2023
(Unaudited, presented in Canadian Dollars)
2.BASIS OF PREPARATION - continued
Basis of preparation
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for marketable securities classified as available-for-sale, which are stated at fair value through other comprehensive income (loss). In addition, these condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.
The preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with IAS 34 requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared on the basis of IFRS Accounting Standards that are published at the time of preparation.
3.MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB on a basis consistent with those followed in the Company’s most recent annual financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2023.
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all note disclosures required by IFRS for annual financial statements, and therefore should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2023. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included. Operating results for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current fiscal year ending September 30, 2024.

4.MARKETABLE SECURITIES
On February 3, 2022, the Company received 1,000,000 shares of Volt Lithium Corp. (formerly known as Allied Copper Corp.) (“Volt” or “Allied”) valued at $225,000 pursuant to an option agreement entered into in 2021 for the Klondike property (Note 5(c)(i)). On September 8, 2022, the Company received 250,000 Allied shares valued at $42,500 pursuant to an option agreement entered into in 2022 for the Stateline property (Note 5(c)(ii)).
On August 8, 2022, the Company paid the finders for the Klondike property by transferring 94,293 Allied shares at a value of $20,800 (US$16,000) with a loss on the transfer of Allied shares of $416 recognized. During the year ended September 30, 2023, the remaining 1,155,707 Allied shares were sold for proceeds of $216,232, with the Company realizing a $30,052 loss on disposal.
On March 29, 2023, the Company received 75,000 shares of Highlander Silver Corp. (“Highlander”) valued at $12,000 pursuant to a data purchase agreement (Note 5(d)(iii)). In October 2023, Highlander completed a share consolidation on a two pre-consolidation common shares for one new common share basis and the Company currently holds 37,500 Highlander shares. During the nine months ended June 30, 2024, 37,500 Highlander shares were sold for proceeds of $20,625, with the Company realizing a $8,625 gain on disposal.
The shares are measured and presented at fair value using the observable market share price as at the dates of the statements of financial position. The gain or loss as a result of the re-measurement is recorded in profit and loss.

5.EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS
The Company typically obtains its mineral exploration rights by way of direct acquisition from government regulatory authorities, outright purchases from third parties, or by entering into option agreements to acquire such rights subject to future consideration, often inclusive of requirements to complete exploration work on such properties. Such costs, when subsequently incurred by the Company, are also capitalized as non-current assets and included within the Exploration and Evaluation category. The Company will, and has, also subsequently entered into arrangements with other parties to vend certain of these interests utilizing similar mechanisms, based on management’s assessment of what is advantageous to the Company.
Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to its unproven mineral right interests, these procedures do not guarantee the Company's title. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.
The Company’s major mineral property interests are its Haldane and Tim silver properties located in the Yukon Territory of Canada while it also has other mineral property interests in North and South America. Following are summary tables of exploration and evaluation assets and brief summary descriptions of each of the exploration and evaluation assets:

12.FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, including currency risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, market risk and commodity price risk.
(a)Currency risk
The Company’s property interests in USA make it subject to foreign currency fluctuations and inflationary pressures which may adversely affect the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The Company is affected by changes in exchange rates between the Canadian Dollar and foreign functional currencies. The Company does not invest in foreign currency contracts to mitigate the risks. The Company’s exploration program, some of its general and administrative expenses and financial instruments denoted in a foreign currency are exposed to currency risk. A 10% change in the US dollar and the Peruvian nuevo sol over the Canadian dollar would change the results of operations by $71,600.

12. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS – continued
(b)Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to the liquidity of its cash. The Company limits exposure to credit risk by maintaining its cash with a large Canadian financial institution.
(c) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company ensures there is sufficient capital in order to meet short-term business requirements, after taking into account cash flows from operations and the Company’s holdings of cash. The Company does not have sufficient cash to settle its current liabilities, and further funding will be required to meet the Company’s short-term and long-term operating needs. The Company manages liquidity risk through the management of its capital structure.
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities are due within the current operating period.
(d) Market risk
Market risks to which the Company is exposed include unfavorable movements in commodity prices, interest rates, and foreign exchange rates. As at June 30, 2024, the Company has no producing assets and holds the majority of its cash in secure, Canadian dollar-denominated deposits. Consequently, its exposure to these risks has been significantly reduced, but as the Company redeploys its cash, exposure to these risks may increase. The objective of the Company is to mitigate exposure to these risks while maximizing returns.
The Company owns available-for-sale marketable securities in the mineral resource sector. Changes in the future pricing and demand of commodities can have a material impact on the market value of the investments. The nature of such investments is normally dependent on the invested company being able to raise additional capital to further develop and to determine the commercial viability of its resource properties. Management mitigates the risk of loss resulting from this concentration by monitoring the trading value of the investments on a regular basis.
i)Interest rate risk
As at June 30, 2024, the Company’s exposure to movements in interest rates was limited to potential decreases in interest income from changes to the variable portion of interest rates for its cash. Market interest rates in Canada are at historically low levels, so management does not consider the risk of interest rate declines to be significant, but should such risks increase, the Company may mitigate future exposure by entering into fixed-rate deposits. A 1% change in the interest rate, with other variables unchanged, would not significantly affect the Company.

(d)Market risk - continued
ii)Foreign exchange risk
The Company is exposed to the financial risk related to the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates. The Company may maintain cash and other financial instruments, or may incur revenues and expenditures in currencies other than the Canadian dollar. Significant changes in the currency exchange rates between the Canadian dollar relative to these foreign currencies, which may include but are not limited to US dollars and Peruvian nuevo sol, could have an effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The Company has not hedged its exposure to currency fluctuations.
(e)Commodity price risk
The ability of the Company to develop its mineral properties and the future profitability of the Company are directly related to the market price of minerals such as gold, zinc, lead and copper. The Company’s input costs are also affected by the price of fuel. The Company closely monitors mineral and fuel prices to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.
IFRS 7 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the input to valuation techniques used to measure fair value as follows:
Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and
Level 3 – inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets measured at amortized cost by level within the fair value hierarchy.

13. MANAGEMENT OF CAPITAL RISK
The Company considers items included in shareholders’ equity as capital. The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to pursue the development of its mineral properties and to maintain a flexible capital structure which optimizes the costs of capital at an acceptable risk.
The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue new shares, issue new debt, acquire or dispose of assets or adjust the amount of cash and cash equivalents.
In order to facilitate the management of its capital requirements, the Company prepares expenditure budgets that are updated as necessary depending on various factors, including successful capital deployment and general industry conditions.
In order to maximize ongoing development efforts, the Company does not pay out dividends. The Company’s approach to managing capital remains unchanged from the year ended September 30, 2023.
14.CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
As a result of the administrative practices with respect to mining taxation in Mexico, there can be significant uncertainty, in regards to when, or if, taxes are payable and the amount that may ultimately be payable. As at September 30, 2015, Mexican claim taxes totalling approximately $766,000 had been levied. Of this amount, $563,000 ($193,000 for 2014 and $370,000 for 2015) related to properties that were held by Minera Tarsis, S.A. de C.V., which the Company had applied to wind up, and $203,000 ($63,000 for 2014 and $140,000 for 2015) related to properties being acquired. On February 16, 2016, the Company sold all its Mexican properties, Yago, Mezquites and San Pedro, to Almadex, and reduced the claim taxes to $173,783. These taxes will never be paid in full and any amount that will, or might, be payable cannot realistically be determined at this time. Accordingly, these taxes have been disclosed as a contingent liability, and not recognized as a liability or provision.
