Description of Business

The Company was incorporated under the name "12 Exploration Inc." pursuant to the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) on November 27, 2017.

On June 12, 2020, the Company completed a reverse take-over transaction ("RTO Transaction") with 79North Ltd. ("79North Ltd.") whereby the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares of 79North Ltd. by way of a three-cornered amalgamation pursuant to which 79North Ltd. amalgamated with a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. As a result of the share exchange, 79North Ltd. is considered to have control. While the Company is the legal acquirer, the accounting acquirer is 79North Ltd. and these financial statements are consolidated and presented with 79North Ltd. as the continuing entity. Following the RTO, the Company began trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE") under the symbol "TWLV" on June 16, 2020. On August 19, 2020, the Company changed its name to "79North Inc." and began trading on CSE under the symbol "JQ". On December 3, 2020, the Company's Common Shares commenced trading on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "6120" and on March 5, 2021, the Company's Common Shares commenced trading on the OTCQB Venture Market under the ticker symbol "SVNTF".

79North, is led by a team with extensive mineral exploration expertise and a track record of discoveries and exits in South America and globally. 79North currently holds an indirect interest in mineral concessions in northern Suriname and aims to become the premier junior exploration company in this under explored district of the prolific Guiana Shield. 79North's growing portfolio of high-quality targets which have not undergone modern exploration or drilling have a long history of artisanal mining and are strategically located near modern gold mines operated by major mining companies. 79North is a mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition, exploration, and development of properties for the mining of gold and other minerals. Both the registered and head office of the Company is located at The Canadian Venture Building, 82 Richmond Street East, Suite 306, Toronto, Ontario M5C 1P1.

The Company is in the exploration stage and is subject to the same risks and challenges as other companies at a comparable stage of development. These risks include, but are not limited to, the dependence on key individuals, successful exploration, and the ability to secure adequate financing to meet the minimum capital required to successfully complete its planned work programs on mineral properties. The financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2021, have been prepared using accounting policies applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business as they become due. The business of mining and exploring for minerals involves a high degree of risk and there can be no assurance that current exploration programs will result in profitable mining operations. The Company's continued existence is dependent upon the preservation of its interests in the underlying properties, the discovery of economically recoverable reserves and the Company's ability to dispose of its interests on an advantageous basis.

79North is at an early stage of exploring and acquiring gold properties and as is common with many small companies, it raises financing for its exploration and acquisition activities in discrete tranches. As at November 30, 2021, the Company has working capital of $1,044,196 (November 30, 2020 - working capital of $2,895,652). For the year ended November 30, 2021, the Company had a net loss and comprehensive loss of $2,627,923 (year ended November 30, 2020 - loss of $2,841,010) and had cash outflows from operations of $2,328,982 (year ended November 30, 2020 - cash outflows of $1,882,087). These conditions indicate the existence of some uncertainty that may cast doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and, accordingly, the ultimate use of accounting principles applicable to a going concern.
