FireFox Gold Corp.

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023

(Unaudited - Expressed in Canadian dollars)

1. Nature of operations and going concern

FireFox Gold Corp. (the "Company" or "FireFox") was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) on June 16, 2017. The Company's registered place of business is located at 2500 - 666 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 2X8, Canada. The Company is in the exploration stage with respect to its mineral property interests, and its primary activity is exploring for economic gold mineralization in Finland.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis with the assumption that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has working capital of $436,004 (December 31, 2023 - $819,372), has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations during the year and will require additional financing in order to continue operations. While the Company has been successful in obtaining funding in the past through the issuance of additional equity, there is no assurance that such funding will be available in the future. An inability to raise additional funds would adversely impact the future assessment of the Company as a going concern. These factors indicate the existence of material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company is dependent upon its ability to finance its operations and exploration programs through financing activities that may include issuances of additional debt or equity securities. The recoverability of the carrying value of exploration projects and, ultimately, the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, is dependent upon the existence and economic recovery of reserves, the ability to raise financing to complete the exploration and development of the properties, and upon future profitable production or, alternatively, upon the Company's ability to dispose of its interest on an advantageous basis, all of which are uncertain. The 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. Such adjustments can be material.

2. Basis of presentation

Basis of compliance

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS Accounting Standards"), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and they are consistent with interpretations of the IFRS Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC"). The accounting policies adopted in these consolidated financial statements are based on IFRS in effect at December 31, 2023.

Basis of measurement

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis. In addition, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.

(Unaudited - Expressed in Canadian dollars)

2. Basis of presentation (continued)

Details of the group

In addition to the Company, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include a subsidiary. Subsidiaries are corporations over which the Company is able, directly or indirectly, to control financial and operating policies, which is authority usually connected with holding majority voting rights. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is acquired by the Company and are de- consolidated from the date that control by the Company ceases. Inter-company transactions and balances are eliminated upon consolidation.

As at March 31, 2024, the Company has one subsidiary, FireFox Gold Oy.

  1. Significant accounting estimates and judgments
    The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates and judgments, which, by their nature, are uncertain. The impact of estimates and judgments is pervasive throughout the consolidated financial statements and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences. Revisions to accounting estimates, or changes to judgments, are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and may affect both the period of revision and future periods.
    Significant assumptions that management has made about current unknowns, the future, and other sources of estimated uncertainty, could result in material adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the event that actual results differ from assumptions made. The significant accounting estimates and judgements are those discussed in detail in Note 3 the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. Material accounting policies are discussed in detail in Note 4 of the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.
  2. Risk management and financial Instruments

Financial instruments are agreements between two parties that give rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. Financial instruments are classified into one of the following three categories: fair value through profit and loss ("FVTPL"); fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI"); and amortized cost.

Credit risk

Credit losses are measured using a present value and probability-weighted model that considers all reasonable and supportable information available without undue cost or effort along with the information available concerning past defaults, current conditions and forecasts at the reporting date. IFRS 9 requires the recognition of 12 month expected credit losses (the portion of lifetime expected credit losses from default events that are expected within 12 months of the reporting date) if credit risk has not significantly increased since initial recognition (stage 1), and lifetime expected credit losses for financial instruments for which the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition (stage 2) or which are credit impaired (stage 3). There are no expected credit losses with respect to the Company's financial instruments held at amortized cost.

4. Risk management and financial Instruments (continued)

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market prices. Market risk consists of interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and other price risk. As at March 31, 2024, the Company is not exposed to significant market risk.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations as they become due. The Company's approach to managing liquidity risk is to attempt to ensure that it will have sufficient cash or credit available to meet liabilities when due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipating any investing and financing activities, and by maintaining its lending arrangement with a related party. Management and the Board of Directors are actively involved in the review, planning and approval of significant expenditures and commitments. All of the liabilities presented as accounts payable and accrued liabilities are due within 90 days of March 31, 2024.

5. Equipment

Equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The cost of an item of property and equipment consists of the purchase price, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for its intended use and an initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item.

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of equipment, less estimated residual value, using the straight-line method over the following expected useful lives:

  1. Vehicles - 4 years
  1. Machinery and Equipment - 4 years o Furniture and fixtures - 4 years

The following table provides a summary of the equipment at March 31, 2024:

6. Mineral properties

  1. Riikonkoski (East and West), Jeesiö (including Jeesiö West) and Ylöjӓrvi (including Oks) projects

On August 1, 2017, the Company entered an option agreement with Magnus Minerals Ltd. ("Magnus"), a company incorporated under the laws of Finland, whereby Magnus granted FireFox an exclusive right and option to earn and acquire a 100% interest in each of the Riikonkoski (East and West), Jeesiö (including Jeesiö West) and Ylöjӓrvi (including Oks) projects (the "RJY Properties"), which are located in Finland and were, at the time, owned by Magnus (the "RJY Option Agreement"). Since originally entering into the option agreement, certain extensions have been formally granted by Magnus to commitment dates under the RJY Option Agreement.

Pursuant to the RJY Option Agreement, FireFox has completed the following commitments:

  1. issued 6,000,000 common shares to Magnus
  2. incurred $3,935,617 in exploration expenditures on the RJY Properties, and
  3. made cash payments to Magnus totaling $250,000

On January 26, 2021 FireFox Gold Corp. completed its earn-in requirements with prepayment of the final $100,000 outstanding and exercised the option for a 100% interest in the Jeesiö Gold Project in Lapland, Finland. There are no further commitments to be satisfied under the RJY Option Agreement.

The RJY Option Agreement also provides that upon FireFox exercising the Option, FireFox will be obligated to pay Magnus an additional payment, equal to the value of 1,000 troy ounces of gold, within 12 months of the commencement of commercial production. In addition, under the RJY Option Agreement, FireFox granted Magnus a 1.5% net smelter return royalty ("NSR"), which may be reduced to 1% by the payment to Magnus of the value of 1,000 troy ounces of gold within 90 days of publishing a positive feasibility study. Pursuant to the RJY Option Agreement, Magnus has agreed to provide mineral exploration services to FireFox. Magnus is

  1. related party (Note 8).
  1. Mustajärvi project

On December 14, 2017, the Company entered into an agreement whereby it paid a total of €30,000 and issued 400,000 common shares to a Finnish junior exploration company, Aurora Exploration Oy ("Aurora"), to acquire a 100% interest in the Mustajärvi Project. Aurora retains a 1% Net Smelter Royalty ("NSR") on all metals sold from the Mustajärvi Project, 50% of which can be repurchased by FireFox for USD $500,000. The repurchase right is exercisable at any point within 180 days of the Company's receipt of a positive feasibility study for the Mustajärvi Project.

FireFox Gold has expanded the original Mustajärvi Project by applying for two exploration permits, which cover the continuation of the Mustajärvi shear zone towards the southwest from the Mustajärvi permit (Mustajärvi West) and extend the property holding east of the Mustajärvi permit (Mustajärvi East). Both new permits were granted in Q1 2023 and the total coverage of valid exploration permits is approximately 4.6 km2 in area.

  1. Seuru Properties

On August 21, 2018, the Company entered an option agreement with Magnus (the "Seuru Option Agreement") to acquire a 100% interest in approximately 46,039 hectares of mineral exploration reservations in the Central Lapland Greenstone Belt of northern Finland. The Seuru properties include several named targets and projects, including the Sarvi Project. Since originally entering into the option agreement, certain extensions have been formally granted by Magnus to commitment dates under the Seuru Option Agreement. Magnus will retain a 1.5% NSR royalty on production from the Seuru Properties, 0.5% of which can be purchased for 1,000 troy ounces of gold. Magnus is a related party (Note 8).

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023

(Unaudited - Expressed in Canadian dollars)

6. Mineral properties (continued)

As the exploration costs on Seuru are increasing, the Company has broken out costs starting in 2021 to more accurately identify those attributable to Naula, Manta, Nunara and the Kolho Trend (see the Mineral Exploration Expenses table below).

Pursuant to the Seuru Option Agreement, FireFox has completed the following commitments:

  1. issued 1,500,000 shares,
  2. made cash payments to Magnus totalling $200,000, and
  3. incurred $2,698,799 in mineral exploration on the Seuru Properties

On July 7, 2022 FireFox Gold Corp. completed its earn-in requirements with a prepayment of the final $50,000 outstanding and exercised the option to acquire 100% interest in the Seuru projects. There are no further commitments to be satisfied under the Seuru Option Agreement.

  1. Kolho Property

The Kolho Property is a group of exploration permit applications and one exploration permit (Nuttio) that occupies a prospective structural corridor northeast of Rupert Resources' Ikkari discovery and FireFox's Sarvi property. The Kolho Property covers more than 120 km2, and FireFox has completed detailed airborne magnetic surveys and limited reconnaissance mapping and sampling in the area.

Option Agreement with Agnico

Pursuant to the terms of an Earn-in Agreement entered into in conjunction with the December 20, 2023 financing (see details in the Share Capital section below), the Company, together with its wholly owned subsidiary FireFox Gold Oy entered into an earn-in agreement (the "Earn-in Agreement"), pursuant to which FireFox Gold Oy granted a subsidiary of Agnico Eagle Mines Limited ("Agnico") the right to earn an interest in the Kolho properties located in northern Finland (the "Kolho Property").

Agnico Eagle Finland OY received an exclusive right to earn a 51% interest in the Kolho Property by incurring exploration expenditures totaling US$5,000,000 before the fifth anniversary of entering into the Earn-in Agreement (the "Earn-in Grant Date"), of which US$2,000,000 will be a committed amount required to be spent on or prior to the third anniversary of the date that certain permits are granted in respect of the Kolho Property.

Upon Agnico earning a 51% interest in the Kolho Property, Agnico and the Company will enter into a joint venture agreement (the "JV Agreement"), pursuant to which, Agnico will become the operator of the venture and be entitled to a 5% management fee. Under the JV Agreement, Agnico will be granted the right to acquire an additional 24% interest in the Kolho Property by incurring additional exploration expenditures totaling US$7,500,000 before the eighth anniversary of the Earn-in Grant Date. A portion of the Kolho Property is subject to an existing 1.5% net smelter return royalty.
