Notes to Condensed Interim Financial Statements
Three-month and six-month periods ended January 31, 2025 and 2024
(in Canadian dollars)

Reporting entity and nature of operations:
Morocco Strategic Minerals Corporation (hereafter the "Company" or "Morocco Strategic Minerals" or "MCC") is engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties.
On January 31, 2025, Genius Metals Inc. changed its name to Morocco Strategic Minerals Corporation. Morocco Strategic Minerals is a company domiciled in Canada. The Company was incorporated on May 25, 2018 under the Canada Business Corporations Act. Morocco Strategic Minerals is a public company and was listed since October 31, 2018 on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE") and its trading symbol is "GENI". The Company has since listed on the TSX.V Stock Exchange ("TSXV") trading under the symbol "GENI" and has begun trading solely on this exchange since September 30, 2021. On January 18, 2022, in addition to trading on the TSXV, its shares commenced also trading on the American Stock Exchange OTCQB Market under the symbol "GNSMF". On February 1, 2023, the Company's shares were moved from the OTCQB Market to the OTC Pink Market where the shares are still trading under the symbol "GNSMF". Since January 31, 2025, Morocco Strategic Minerals Corporation is trading on the TSXV under symbol "MCC".
The Company's head office, which is also the main establishment is located at 68 de la Gare Avenue, suite 205, Saint-Sauveur, Québec, Canada J0R 1R0 and its web site is www.moroccosm.com. - Going concern:
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis of the going concern assumption meaning the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. In assessing whether the going concern assumption is appropriate, management takes into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but not limited to, 12 months from the end of the reporting period.
Management is aware, in making its assessment, of material uncertainties related to events and conditions that may cast a significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and, accordingly, the appropriateness of the use of accounting principles applicable to a going concern. These financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities, expenses and financial position classifications that would be necessary if the going concern assumption was not appropriate. These adjustments could be material.
For the six-month period ended January 31, 2025, the Company recorded a net loss of $1,049,425 ($506,852 for the six-month period ended January 31, 2024) and had negative cash flows from operations of $644,674 ($570,453 for the six-month period ended January 31, 2024). In addition, the Company had accumulated deficit of $8,148,509 as at January 31, 2025. Besides the usual needs for working capital, the Company must obtain funds to enable it to meet the timelines of its exploration programs and to pay its overhead and administrative costs. As at January 31, 2025, the Company had a working capital (total current assets less total current liabilities) of $534,599 (a negative working capital of $200,561 as at July 31, 2024) including cash of $773,722 ($177,194 in cash as at July 31, 2024). Management believes that these funds will not be sufficient to meet the obligations and liabilities of the Company. These material uncertainties cast significant doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Any funding shortfall may be met in the future in a number of ways, including but not limited to, the issuance of new equity instruments. Given that the Company has not yet determined whether its mineral properties contain mineral deposits that are economically recoverable, the Company has not yet generated income nor cash flows from its operations. The recovery of the cost of exploration and evaluation assets as well as other tangible and intangible assets, is subject to certain conditions: the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to continue the exploration, evaluation, development, construction and ultimately disposal of these assets. During the six-month period ended January 31, 2025, the Company has raised $1,696,000 ($556,500 during the year ended July 31, 2024) from private placements consisting of common shares to fund exploration works and working capital. There is no assurance that it will succeed in obtaining additional financing in the future. In February 2025, the Company concluded a private placement (See Note 22). - Basis of preparation:
3.1 Statement of compliance:
These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (hereafter "IFRS Accounting Standards") in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting.

have been adopted early by the Company. Management anticipates that all relevant pronouncements will be adopted for the first | |||
