CHAKANA COPPER CORP. NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE NINE MONHTS ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 2026 AND 2025 (Unaudited – Expressed in Canadian Dollars) 7 | P a g e 1. Nature of Operations and Going Concern Chakana Copper Corp. (the “Corporation” or “Chakana”) was incorporated on May 2, 2011, under the laws of the province of British Columbia, Canada. The Corporation is listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) under the symbol “PERU”. The Corporation is currently engaged in exploration of mineral properties, with its principal focus at this stage on the exploration of the expanded Soledad copper-gold-silver project located in central Peru (the “Soledad Project”). The head office and principal address is Suite 1012 – 1030 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 2Y3, Canada. The records office of the Corporation is located at 1055 West Pender Street, Suite 1500, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 4V7, Canada. The Corporation is in the process of exploring and developing its mineral properties. The recoverability of the amounts shown for mineral properties is dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable reserves, successful permitting, the ability of the Corporation to obtain necessary financing to complete exploration and development, and upon future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition of each mineral property. Furthermore, the acquisition of title to mineral properties is a complicated and uncertain process, and while the Corporation has taken steps in accordance with normal industry standards to verify its title to the mineral properties in which it has an interest, there can be no assurance that such title will ultimately be secured. The carrying amounts of mineral properties are based on costs incurred to date, and do not necessarily represent present or future values. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Corporation will be able to continue in operation for the foreseeable future and meet its obligations in the normal course of business. The Corporation has incurred ongoing losses and will continue to incur further losses in the course of exploring its mineral properties. During the period ended February 28, 2026, the Corporation incurred a net loss of $356,593 (2025 - $9,823,147) and as of that date has a deficit of $50,090,778 (May 31, 2025 ‐ $50,318,745). The Corporation has historically relied on the issuance of share capital to fund its operations. Although the Corporation has been successful in raising equity financing in the past, there is no assurance that such financing will continue to be available with acceptable terms. These uncertainties may cast significant doubt about the Corporation’s ability to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Corporation be unable to continue as a going concern. Such adjustments could be material. 2. Basi

s of Preparation and Statement of Compliance These condensed interim consolidated financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards (“IFRS”), as applicable to interim financial reports, including International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting. Therefore, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and note disclosures required by IFRS for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements as at May 31, 2025 and for the year then ended (“Annual Financial Statements”), which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. The accounting policies applied in preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are the same as those applied in the most recent Annual Financial Statements and were consistently applied to all the periods presented. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on January 28, 2026. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value. In addition, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information, and are presented in Canadian dollars, except where otherwise indicated.

Basis of Preparation and Statement of Compliance (continued) The Corporation’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Corporation, where control is achieved by the Corporation being exposed to, or having rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and having the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is obtained by the Corporation and are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. The Corporation currently has two wholly owned subsidiaries: Chakana Resources S.A.C., a Peruvian company and Essential Minerals Inc. a US corporation. All intercompany transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation. 3. Significant Accounting Judgments and Estimates The preparation of the Corporation’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual outcomes may differ significantly from these estimates. Significant judgments and estimates that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the Corporation’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements are as follows. Critical account
---
ing judgments: Judgments that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the Corporation’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements are as follows: • Impairment of Exploration and Evaluation Asset The net carrying value of an exploration asset is reviewed regularly for conditions that suggest potential indications of impairment. This review requires significant judgment. Factors considered in the assessment of asset impairment include, but are not limited to, whether there has been a significant adverse change in the legal, regulatory, accessibility, title, environmental or political factors that could affect the property’s value; whether there has been an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amounts originally expected for the property’s acquisition, development or cost of holding; and whether exploration activities produced results that are not promising such that no more work is being planned in the foreseeable future. • Going Concern The assessment of the Corporation’s ability to continue as a going concern involves critical judgment based on historical experience and expectations of the Corporation’s ability to generate adequate financing. Significant judgment is used in the Corporation’s assessment of its ability to continue as a going concern. • Functional Currency The functional currency of Chakana Resources S.A.C. is the Peruvian sol – the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Determination of functional currency may involve certain judgments to determine the primary economic environment and the Corporation reconsiders the functional currency of its entities if there is a change in events and conditions that determined the primary economic environment.

Significant Accounting Judgments and Estimates (continued) Critical accounting judgments (continued): • Income Taxes Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement carrying values of assets and liabilities and their respective income tax bases (“temporary differences”), and losses carried forward. The determination of the ability of the Corporation to utilize tax loss carry-forwards to offset deferred tax liabilities requires management to exercise judgment and make certain assumptions about the future performance of the Corporation. Management is required to assess whether it is probable that the Corporation will benefit from these prior losses and other deferred tax assets. Change in economic conditions, metal prices and other factors could result in revision to the estimates of the benefits to be realized or the timing of utilizing the losses. • Value-added Tax (“VAT”) Management’s assumptions regarding the recoverability of VAT receivable at the end of each reporting period is made using all relevant facts available, including past collectability, the development of VAT policies and the general economic environment of the country to determine if a write-down of the VAT is required. Collection of the amount receivable depends on processing and payment of the claims by the local government, which historically has been very slow. The Corporation has been receiving its VAT from prior years, and as such, management has determined as at February 28, 2026
---
and May 31, 2025 that it is appropriate to record the VAT as a receivable without any allowance for collectability. The timing and amount of the VAT ultimately collectable could be materially different from the amount recorded in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements. Critical accounting estimates: • Stock-based compensation Stock-based compensation is valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model at the date of grant and expensed in profit or loss over the vesting period of each award for stock options and recorded as share issuance cost for broker warrants issued in conjunction with financings. The Black-Scholes option pricing model utilizes subjective assumptions, such as expected price volatility and expected life of the option. Stock- based compensation expense also utilizes subjective assumption on forfeiture rate. Changes in these input assumptions can significantly affect the fair value estimate. 4.

Exploration and Evaluation Assets (continued) The Corporation’s wholly owned subsidiary, Chakana Resources S.A.C., holds the following: (i) An option to acquire up to a 100% ownership in mineral concessions (“Condor Concessions”) owned by Barrick Mining Corporation (“Barrick”) (the “Barrick Option”) subject to certain “back-in” rights; and (ii) A 1% net smelter return royalty right (“NSR”) on the Condor Concessions plus a 2 kilometre area of interest. The Barrick Option is referred to as the “La Joya Project”. The Corporation is the operator of all related mineral exploration activities on these projects. During the year, the Corporation relinquished its concessions under the Condor and Aija option agreements These concessions, together with concessions acquired from the Barrick option agreement other adjoining concessions, were collectively considered as the Condor Project. As a result of the relinquishment, certain amounts that had previously been recorded within the Condor Project were reclassified to the Barrick and other (La Joya Project), as they related to exploration activities that are independent of the Condor option agreements. (a) Barrick Option On July 11, 2018, Barrick granted the Corporation an option to acquire a 100% interest in three concessions adjoining the southern extent of the Aija Project (the Barrick Option). Under terms of the agreement, the Corporation has five years in total to complete a minimum of 2,000 metres of drilling and produce a Preliminary Economic Assessment report compliant with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. In October 2021, the Corporation amended the July 11, 2018 agreement. Under terms of the amended agreement, the Corporation must obtain the Authorization to Imitate Activities (“AIA”) for exploration drilling on o
---
r before September 27, 2023 (first option). It then has four years from the date of the AIA to complete a minimum of 4,000 metres of drilling and produce a Preliminary Economic Assessment report compliant with National Instrument 43-101 (second option). Upon exercise of the Barrick Option, Barrick will retain a 2% NSR subject to the Corporation’s right to purchase 50% of the royalty for US$2,000,000. Barrick will have a one-time right to reacquire a 70% interest in the concessions within 120 days of exercising the option by paying the Corporation three times the aggregate amount of exploration expenditures incurred since the execution date and cancelling the 2% NSR (“Back-in”). If a production decision is then not made by Barrick within seven years of the Back-in Closing Date, Barrick will make pre-royalty payments of US$75,000 per year until a production decision is made for a maximum of five years (US$375,000). If the Corporation does not contribute its share of project costs its interest will be diluted to 10%, upon which its interest will be converted to a 2% NSR with Barrick retaining a right to purchase 50% of the royalty for US$2,000,000. If Barrick declines, an undivided 100% interest in the concessions will be transferred to the Corporation. (b) Aija Project On March 20, 2018, the Corporation entered into an option agreement (the “Aija Option”) with an arm’s length third party to acquire 100% of the rights and interest in the Aija Project subject to a 2% NSR. During the year ended May 31, 2025, the Corporation relinquished its option on the Aija Project given insufficient resources identified during exploration. As a result, during the year ended May 31, 2025, the Corporation recognized an impairment of $2,238,101 using a fair value less costs of disposal measure. The Corporation has no further obligations regarding the property. CHAKANA COPPER CORP.

Exploration and Evaluation Assets (continued) (c) Condor Option On April 17, 2017, the Corporation entered into a mining assignment and option agreement with Minera Vertiente del Sol S.A.C., a subsidiary of Condor Resources Inc. (“Condor”), pursuant to acquiring 100% of the rights and interests in the Soledad copper/gold project, Peru (the “Soledad Project”), subject to a 2% NSR. During the year ended May 31, 2025, the Corporation relinquished its option to acquire three concessions from Condor. As a result, during the year ended May 31, 2025, the Corporation recognized an impairment of $5,533,578 using a fair value less costs of disposal measure. As part of the purchase agreement with Condor, Condor granted a 1% NSR in favor of the Corporation over the Condor Concessions within a 2 kilometre area of interest. Condor will have the right to purchase half of the royalty (0.5%) for US$1,000,000. The Corporation controls the surface rights over the expanded Soledad Project, including the Condor Concessions, which means that Condor will not have access to the Condor Concessions without establishing an access agreement with the Corporation. The Corporation has no further obligations regarding the property. 5.

Management has determined to classify VAT receivable as long-term due to uncertainty of timing as to when it will be received. 7. Share Capital (a) Authorized Share Capital The Corporation is authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares without par value. Effective February 28, 2025, the Corporation completed the consolidation of its common shares on the basis of one new-post consolidation common share for every ten pre-consolidation common shares. All share data in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements have given effect to this consolidation on a retroactive basis. (b) Issued Capital During the Nine months ended February 28, 2026, the Corporation issued common shares as follows: • On September 26, 2025, the Corporation completed a non-brokered private placement of 17,857,156 units at a price of $0.07 per unit for gross proceeds of $1,250,001. Each unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional share at a price of $0.09 for a period of three years. The Corporation paid aggregate finder's fees of $1,929 and issued 27,552 finder's warrants in connection with the private placement. Each finder's warrant is exercisable to purchase one share at a price of $0.09 for a period of three years from closing of the private placement. The finder’s warrants were valued at $2,935 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. • On September 11, 2025, the Corporation entered into agreements to settle all debt owing to related parties, totaling $644,791, through a combination of share issuances and debt forgiveness. As part of the settlement, the Corporation issued 2,529,487 common shares at a deemed price of $0.0975 per common share, representing an aggregate settlement amount of $246,625. In addition, the same creditors forgave $353,455 of remaining debt owed to them leaving a balance of $44,711, which was settled through cash payments. Upon completion, this transaction resulted in the full extinguishment of all outstanding board and management debt obligations. The Corporation received TSXV approval for these transactions on September 25, 2025. • On Februar

ation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. The Corporation’s primary exposure to credit risk is on its cash, which is being held in bank accounts with one major bank in Canada, therefore, there is a concentration of credit risk. This risk is managed by using a major bank that is a high credit quality financial institution, as determined by rating agencies. Foreign currency risk The Corporation incurs expenditures in Canada and Peru. Foreign currency risk arises, as the amount of the Peruvian sol and US dollar cash, intercompany balances and payables will vary in Canadian dollar terms due to changes in exchange rates. As at February 28, 2026 and May 31, 2025, the Corporation has not hedged its exposure to currency fluctuations. CHAKANA COPPER CORP.

The Corporation’s exposure to interest rate risk relates to its ability to earn interest income on cash at variable rates. The risk is minimal.

When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.
