FAIR VALUE ACCOUNTING |
FAIR VALUE ACCOUNTING | NOTE 16 FAIR VALUE ACCOUNTING As required by accounting guidance, certain assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Warrants Upon initial recognition, the warrants received as part of the asset sale to Nevgold (Note 4) were fair valued using the Black-Scholes valuation model as they are not quoted in an active market. Subsequently, the warrants have been accounted for as equity investment at cost. Average volatility of 94.6% was determined based on a selection of similar junior mining companies. The warrants are exercisable upon receipt and have an exercise price of $0.60 per share and expire June 23, 2023. As of December 31, 2022, no warrants related to the Nevgold transaction have been exercised. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis The following tables identify the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually) by level within the fair value hierarchy as at December 31, 2022 and 2021, as reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets: ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Fair value as at December 31, 2022 |  | Fair value as at December 31, 2021
​ |  | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Total |  | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Total
Marketable equity securities | ​ | $ | 1,133 | ​ | $ | — | ​ | $ | 1,133 | ​ | $ | 1,644 | ​ | $ | — | ​ | $ | 1,644
Total investments | ​ | $ | 1,133 | ​ | $ | — | ​ | $ | 1,133 | ​ | $ | 1,644 | ​ | $ | — | ​ | $ | 1,644
​ The Company’s investments as at December 31, 2022 mainly consist of marketable equity securities which are exchange-traded and are valued using quoted market prices in active markets and as such are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the investments is calculated as the quoted market price of the marketable equity security multiplied by the quantity of shares held by the Company. The fair value of other financial assets and liabilities were assumed to approximate their carrying values due to their short-term nature and historically negligible credit losses.
