Note 4. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization with the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described below:

Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2 Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3 Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by ASC 820, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Our financial instruments include cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, notes payable, the derivative liability of royalty convertible debenture (see Note 7). Due to their short maturity of our cash, accounts payable, notes payable and accrued liabilities, we believe that their carrying amounts approximate fair value as of June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024.

The Company determined that the derivative liability (Note 7) embedded in the Debenture is required to be accounted for separately from the Debenture as a derivative liability and recorded at fair value and the remaining value allocated to the Debenture net the unamortized debt issuance costs. The derivative liability will be fair valued at each reporting period, with changes in fair value recorded as a gain or loss in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. During the year ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the fair value derivative liability increased by $435,824 and $881,727, respectively, and it was recorded in Other expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

As of June 30, 2025, the Royalty conversion feature is recorded at $4,077,929 (June 30, 2024 - $3,642,105) and is valued based on Level 3 inputs. Several steps were used to calculate the fair value of the Royalty conversion feature on the Debenture. First utilizing the Royalty Agreement's royalty rate of 4.75% for the life of mine, the annual gross royalty amounts were calculated from estimated expected gross revenues of the proposed Grassy Mountain Mine. The gold and silver price assumption was derived by management based on its judgment, taking into account current pricing trends and trends observed in royalty transactions. Also, management considered the mineral reserves of the proposed mine. The annual royalty amounts were discounted using a long term stock market

rate of return of 10%. In determining expected future cash flows, management has also considered a number of project-specific risk factors that affect the timing of commencement of production, including the completion of federal and state permitting, the ability secure construction financing on acceptable terms, and uncertainties related to construction schedules. These risks and key input assumptions could materially impact both the timing and amount of the royalty payments, and therefore the fair value of the Royalty conversion feature. Second, a Black-Scholes model was used to calculate the fair value of the conversion option. The key assumptions in valuing the royalty conversion option derivative include:
