Warrant Liability

The warrants issued as part of the 2022 non-brokered private placement (Note 20) include an embedded derivative as they are exercisable in U.S. dollars and, therefore, fail the “fixed for fixed” requirements prescribed in IAS 32 Financial Instruments: presentation. As a result, they are classified as a liability and measured at fair value. The liability is revalued at its estimated fair value using the Black-Scholes model at the end of each reporting period, and the variation in the fair value is recognized on the consolidated statements of loss under Change in fair value of warrant liability.

The movement of the warrant liability is as follows:
