NOTE 4 NOTES RECEIVABLE

 

Galore Creek

 

On July 27, 2018, the Company sold its interest in the Galore Creek project to a subsidiary of Newmont for cash proceeds of $100,000 upon closing, a $75,000 note due upon the earlier of the completion of a Galore Creek pre-feasibility study or July 27, 2021, a $25,000 note due upon the earlier of the completion of a Galore Creek feasibility study or July 27, 2023, and a contingent note for $75,000 due upon approval of a Galore Creek project construction plan by the owner(s). The Company received from Newmont $75,000 on July 27, 2021, and $25,000 on July 27, 2023.

 

No value was assigned to the final $75,000 contingent note. The Company determined that Galore Creek project construction approval was not probable as of the closing of the Galore Creek sale. The Company’s assessment did not change as of February 28, 2025. The contingent note will be recognized when, in management’s judgement, it is probable that the payment will occur, and that the amount recorded will not reverse in subsequent periods.

 

Minas San Roque

 

On November 3, 2021, the Company sold its 49% interest in the Minas San Roque project in Argentina to Marifil S.A., a subsidiary of International Iconic Gold Mines Ltd. (“Iconic”) for cash proceeds of C$250 upon closing, a C$750 note receivable due on November 1, 2022, and a C$1,000 note receivable due on November 1, 2023. On closing, the Company determined the fair value of the notes was nil. Iconic completed the C$750 note repayment due on November 1, 2022 in December 2022, and the C$1,000 ($743) note repayment due on November 1, 2023 was made in January 2024.
