During 2019 the Company had intended to issue up to 800,000 flow-through units of the Company at a price of $0.25 per unit for gross proceeds to the Company of $200,000 in order to use the proceeds of this financing towards mineral exploration work expenditures located in the Province of British Columbia. However, due to the Covid-19 pandemic the Company was able to raise only the amount of $20,000 for which the Company has issued 80,000 flow-through units of the Company. Each flow-through unit consisted of one flow-through common share of the Company and one non-flow-through share purchase warrant to acquire one non-flow-through common share of the Company at a price of $0.50 for a period of two years. All securities issued in connection with this financing were subject to a hold period which expired on May 16, 2021. During the year-ended December 31, 2022, the Company made a formal application to Canada Revenue Agency and cancelled the Company’s flow-through share application which was submitted during the year ended December 31, 2020. On January 15, 2023, the non-flow through share purchase warrants expired unexercised.

In relation to the flow-through share private placement completed during January 2021, the Company was committed to incur and renounce $20,000 in Canadian exploration expenditures by December 31, 2022.  The Company was unable to incur the $20,000.  The Company has agreed to indemnify the flow-through shareholder for certain costs incurred by the shareholder as a result of the Company not meeting its obligation to spend the flow-through share proceeds on qualifying Canadian exploration expenditures in compliance with the applicable tax rules and pursuant to the share subscription agreement.  As at December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company has included a provision for indemnification of the flow through shareholder for an amount of $10,000 in accounts payable.

On August 8, 2022, the Company announced that it intended to offer a non-brokered private placement financing whereby the Company may raise gross proceeds of up to $400,000 by issuing up to 10,000,000 units of the securities of the Company at the price of $0.04 per unit. During August and October 2022, the Company closed the private placement financing in three tranches by the issuance in aggregate of 1,200,000 non-flow through units of the Company at $0.04 per unit for total gross proceeds of $48,000. Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the Company and one share purchase warrant to purchase an additional common share in the capital of the Company at the price of $0.05 per common share for a period of five years. All securities that have been issued were subject to a four-month and one day hold period.

On May 15, 2023, the Company closed the non-brokered private placement financing which was announced in December 2022 for gross proceeds of $150,000 through the issuance of 6,000,000 units of the Company at $0.025 per unit. Each unit consists of one common share in the capital of the Company and one share purchase warrant to purchase an additional common share in the capital of the Company at the price of $0.05 per common share for a period of 5 years. All securities issued in connection with this financing include a hold period in accordance with applicable securities laws.

On June 1 & 5, 2023, the Company announced a non-brokered private placement of up to $100,000 through the issuance of up to 4,000,000 units of the Company at the price of $0.025 per unit whereby each unit would have consisted of one common share and one share purchase warrant to purchase an additional common share in the capital of the Company at the price of $0.05 per share for a period of five years from closing. The proposed private placement did not close.

On June 5, 2023, the Company announced a non-brokered private placement offering to raise funds for gross proceeds of up to $100,000 by the issuance of up to 4,000,000 flow-through units of the Company at the price of $0.025 per unit. On July 24, 2023, the Company closed the flow-through share offering through the issuance of 2,000,000 flow-through units of the Company at $0.025 per unit for gross proceeds of $50,000. Each flow-through unit consists of one flow-through common share of the Company and one non-flow-through share purchase warrant to acquire one non-flow-through common share of the Company at a price of $0.05 for a period of five years. The funds raised from this financing were utilized towards exploration work expenditures on the Company’s mineral property located in the Province of British Columbia. In the event that the Company’s shares trade on the CSE at $0.20 per share or above for a period of 10 consecutive trading days, a forced exercise provision will come into effect for the warrants issued in connection with this financing. All securities issued in connection with this financing include a hold period in accordance with applicable securities laws. In relation to the flow-through private placement, the Company is committed to incur and renounce $50,000 in Canadian exploration expenditures by December 31, 2024.

Risks related to our Business

The Company, and the securities of the Company, should be considered a highly speculative investment. The following risk factors should be given special consideration when evaluating an investment in any of the Company's securities:

The Company does not anticipate to generate any revenue in the foreseeable future. In the event that the Company generates any revenues in the future, then the Company intends to retain its earnings in order to finance growth.
There are a number of outstanding securities and agreements pursuant to which common shares of the Company may be issued in the future. This will result in further dilution to the Company's shareholders.
Governmental regulations, including those regulations governing the protection of the environment, taxes, labour standards, occupational health, waste disposal, mine safety and other matters, could have an adverse impact on the Company.
Trading in the common shares of the Company may be halted or suspended or may be subject to cease trade orders at any time and for any reason, including, but not limited to, the failure by the Company to submit documents to the Regulatory Authorities within the required time periods.
The exploration of mineral properties involves significant risks which even experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to avoid. The prices of metals have fluctuated widely, particularly in recent years as it is affected by numerous factors which are beyond the Company’s control including international, economic and political trends, expectations of inflation or deflation, currency exchange fluctuations, interest rate fluctuations, global or regional consumptive patterns, speculative activities and increased production due to new extraction methods. The effect of these factors on the price of metals, and therefore the economic viability of the Company’s interest in its mineral exploration property cannot be accurately predicted. Furthermore, changing conditions in the financial markets, and Canadian Income Tax legislation may have a direct adverse impact on the Company’s ability to raise funds for its interest in the Extra High mineral exploration property. A drop in the availability of equity financings will likely impede spending on mineral properties which can affect the Company.
The Company has outstanding debts, has working capital deficiency, has no revenues, has incurred operating losses, and has no assurances whatsoever that sufficient funding can be available for the Company to continue its operations uninterruptedly.
The market price of the Company’s common shares has experienced considerable volatility and may continue to fluctuate in the future. Furthermore, there is a limited trading market for the Company’s common shares and as such, the ability of investors to sell their shares cannot be assured.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has incurred operating losses over the past three fiscal years, has limited resources, and does not have any source of operating cash flow.

During 2024, the Company shall require at least $400,000 to conduct its operations uninterruptedly. In order to meet this requirement, the Company intends to seek equity and/or debt financings through private placements and/or public offerings and/or loans. In the past, the Company has been successful in securing equity and debt financings in order to conduct its operations uninterruptedly. While the Company does not give any assurances whatsoever that in the future it will continue being successful in securing equity and/or debt financings in order to conduct its operations uninterruptedly, it is the Company’s intention to pursue these methods for future funding of the Company.

Material Accounting Policy Information

The Annual Audited Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee (“IFRIC”).

The Material Accounting Policies are detailed in Note 4 of the Company’s Annual Audited Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted IFRS 16 which supersedes IAS 17 Leases (“IAS 17”). The Company has applied the new standard using the modified retrospective approach with no restatement of comparative periods. There were no adjustments to retained earnings as a result of adoption. The Company has elected not to reassess whether a contract is, or contains a lease at the date of initial application. Instead, for contracts entered into before the transition date the Company relied on its previous assessment made under IAS 17 and IFRIC 4 Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease. The definition of a lease under IFRS 16 was applied only to contracts entered into or modified on or after January 1, 2019.

On transition to IFRS 16, the Company did not recognize any lease assets or liabilities as its operating leases had a remaining term of less than 12 months from the date of initial application.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Trends

During the last several years commodity prices have fluctuated significantly, and should this trend continue or should commodity prices remain at current levels, then companies such as 37 Capital will have difficulty in raising funds and/or acquiring mineral properties of merit at reasonable prices.

Related Party Transactions

The Company shares office space and certain employees with Jackpot, a company related by certain common key management personnel.

The Company has an office lease agreement with Jackpot. Under the agreement, the Company is entitled to have office space from Jackpot at a monthly rate of $1,000 plus applicable taxes. Furthermore, Jackpot or the Company may terminate this agreement by giving each other a three months’ notice in writing.

The Company has an office support services agreement with Jackpot which has been extended until September 30, 2024. Under the agreement, the Company is entitled to receive office support services from Jackpot at a monthly rate of $1,000 plus applicable taxes. Either Jackpot or the Company may terminate this agreement by giving each other a three months’ notice in writing.

Jackpot is related to the Company by virtue of the fact that Jackpot has certain directors and officers who are also directors and officers of the Company.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

(a)  Risk management overview

The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks including credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. This note presents information about the Company's exposure to each of the above risks, the Company's objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the Company's management of capital. The Company employs risk management strategies and policies to ensure that any exposure to risk is in compliance with the Company's business objectives and risk tolerance levels. While the Board of Directors has the overall responsibility for the Company's risk management framework, the Company's management has the responsibility to administer and monitor these risks.

(b) Fair value of financial instruments

The fair values of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to related parties, refundable subscription, loan payable and convertible debentures approximate their carrying values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.

IFRS establishes a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:

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).

(c)  Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk consist of cash. The Company mitigates its exposure to credit loss associated with cash by placing its cash with a major financial institution.

(d) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they are due. The Company's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due.

At December 31, 2023, the Company had cash of $18,304 (December 31, 2022 - $122) available to apply against short-term business requirements and current liabilities of $741,436 (December 31, 2022 - $826,925). All of the current liabilities are due within 90 days. Amounts due to related parties are due on demand. As of December 31, 2023, two convertible debentures together with the accrued interest for a total amount of $519,589 are outstanding, and the loan payable in the amount of $50,000 plus accrued interest in the amount of $12,973 are due. Liquidity risk is assessed as high.

(e) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as interest rates and foreign exchange rates, will affect the Company's net earnings or the value of financial instruments. As at December 31, 2023, the Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk, currency risk or other price risk on its financial assets and liabilities due to the short-term maturity of its financial liabilities and the fixed interest rate on the outstanding convertible debentures.
