In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and the impairment loss is recognized in income (loss) for the period.

In January 2019, the Comp Committee agreed with management that it was in the best interest of the Group to accelerate the vesting period to January 28, 2019. The Group has determined that this grant should be accounted for as cash-settled given the cash settlement of a previous grant. Accordingly, during the period, the Group has recognized $80 as SBC with a corresponding increase in the RSU liability for this grant based on the quoted market value of the Company&#8217;s common shares as of the reporting date. At the end of each reporting period, until the RSU liability is settled, the RSU liability&#8217;s fair value is remeasured based on the quoted TSX closing price for shares multiplied by the number of RSUs that will vest and be converted into common shares, and amortized over the vesting period of the RSUs, with any change in fair value charged to share-based compensation. Subsequent to the reporting period, the RSU&#8217;s were settled by the Group (note 15(a)). </font></td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="line-height: 107%">&#160;</td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%">&#160;</td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%">&#160;</td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="line-height: 107%">&#160;</td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%"><font style="font: 10pt Cambria, Times, Serif">(ii)</font></td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%"><font style="font: 10pt Cambria, Times, Serif">On July 30, 2018, the Group settled RSUs treated as cash-settled by issuing 434,742 shares.

In the current year, income relating to the non-refundable early option price installment was recognized on the termination of the framework agreement (note 3(a)). Subsequent to the reporting period, the Group completed a bought deal financing for gross proceeds of US$11,500 (note 15(c)) and a private placement for gross proceeds of $3,242 (US$2,412) (note15(d)). The Group has prioritized the allocation of its financial resources in order to meet key corporate and Pebble Project expenditure requirements in the near term. Additional financing will be required in order to progress any material expenditures at the Pebble Project and for working capital requirements. Additional financing may include any of or a combination of debt equity and/or contributions from possible new Pebble Project participants. There can be no assurances that the Group will be successful in obtaining additional financing. If the Group is unable to raise the necessary capital resources and generate sufficient cash flows to meet obligations as they come due, the Group may, at some point, consider reducing or curtailing its operations. As such, there is material uncertainty that raises substantial doubt about the Group&#8217;s ability to continue as a going concern.</p> <p style="font: 10pt/normal Cambria, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 35.45pt; text-align: justify">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt/normal Cambria, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 35.45pt; text-align: justify">The Group through the Pebble Partnership initiated federal and state permitting for the Pebble Project under the National Environmental Protection Act, by filing documentation for a Clean Water Act 404 permit with the US Army Corps of Engineers (&#8220;USACE&#8221;) in December 2017.

Accordingly, comparative information for 2017 is presented under IAS 39.</p> <p style="font: 10pt/normal Cambria, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 0.5in; text-align: justify">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt/normal Cambria, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 0.5in; text-align: justify">A summary of significant changes in IFRS 9 is as follows:</p> <p style="font: 10pt/normal Cambria, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 0.5in; text-align: justify">&#160;</p> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="font: 11pt Calibri, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse"> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="width: 72px; line-height: 107%">&#160;</td> <td style="width: 24px; text-align: justify; line-height: 107%"><font style="font: 10pt Cambria, Times, Serif">&#8226;</font></td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%"><font style="font: 10pt Cambria, Times, Serif">IFRS 9 uses a single approach to determine whether a financial asset is classified and measured at amortized cost or fair value. The classification and measurement of financial assets is based on the Group&#8217;s business model for managing its financial assets and whether the contractual cash flows represent solely payments for principal and interest. IFRS 9 eliminates the previous IAS 39 categories for financial assets of <i>held to maturity, loans and receivables </i>and <i>available-for-sale</i>. The change did not impact the carrying amounts of any of the Group&#8217;s financial assets on the transition date.</font></td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="line-height: 107%">&#160;</td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%">&#160;</td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%">&#160;</td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="line-height: 107%">&#160;</td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%"><font style="font: 10pt Cambria, Times, Serif">&#8226;</font></td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%"><font style="font: 10pt Cambria, Times, Serif">In respect to financial liabilities, IFRS 9 retains most of IAS 39&#8217;s requirements for classification and measurement of financial liabilities. </font></td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="line-height: 107%">&#160;</td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%">&#160;</td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%">&#160;</td></tr> </table> <p style="font: 11pt/normal Calibri, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0">&#160;</p> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="font: 11pt Calibri, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse"> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="width: 72px; line-height: 107%">&#160;</td> <td style="width: 24px; text-align: justify; line-height: 107%"><font style="font: 10pt Cambria, Times, Serif">&#8226;</font></td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%"><font style="font: 10pt Cambria, Times, Serif">The Group designated its marketable securities, which although nominal in value, as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (&#8220;FVTOCI&#8221;), and will continue to be recorded at fair value. Subsequent changes in fair value however, will be only recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) and will not be transferred into income (loss) upon disposition. Accordingly, on January 1, 2018, the Group reclassified $15 of impairment losses recognized in prior years on its marketable securities that it continues to own, from opening deficit to the investment revaluation reserve in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). With the adoption of IFRS 9, the net change in fair value of marketable securities, including realized and unrealized gains and losses, if any, is now presented as an item that will not be reclassified subsequently to net (loss) income in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. </font></td></tr> </table> <p style="font: 10pt/normal Cambria, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #0054A4">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt/normal Cambria, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 0.5in; text-align: justify; color: #0054A4"><u>Other</u></p> <p style="font: 10pt/normal Cambria, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 0.5in; text-align: justify">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt/normal Cambria, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 0.5in; text-align: justify">The Group also adopted the following standards and annual improvements that became effective January 1, 2018:</p> <p style="font: 10pt/normal Cambria, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 0.5in; text-align: justify">&#160;</p> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="font: 11pt Calibri, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse"> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="width: 48px; line-height: 107%">&#160;</td> <td style="width: 24px; text-align: justify; line-height: 107%"><font style="font: 10pt Cambria, Times, Serif">&#8226;</font></td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%"><font style="font: 10pt Cambria, Times, Serif">IFRS 15, <i>Revenue from Contracts with Customers (&#8220;IFRS 15&#8221;)</i></font></td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="line-height: 107%">&#160;</td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%">&#160;</td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%">&#160;</td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="line-height: 107%">&#160;</td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%">&#160;</td> <td style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%"><font style="font: 10pt Cambria, Times, Serif">IFRS 15, which supersedes IAS 18, <i>Revenue (&#8220;IAS 18&#8221;), </i>establishes a single five-step model framework for determining the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from a contract with a customer.

The complaints relied on the claims made in the Kerrisdale Report and alleged damages to a class of investors who purchased shares of the Company prior to the publication of the Kerrisdale Report and allege liability for losses pursuant to Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act of 1934 and SEC Rule 10b-5 thereunder, as well as control person liability against the individual defendants pursuant to Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act.</p> <p style="font: 10pt/normal Cambria, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 35.45pt; text-align: justify">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt/normal Cambria, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 35.45pt; text-align: justify">The plaintiffs in both the <i>Kirwin</i> and <i>Schubert</i> actions voluntarily dismissed their claims without prejudice.

The Company filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint in the <i>Diaz </i>action, which the plaintiffs opposed. On April 3, 2018, the United States District Court for the Central District of California dismissed the plaintiffs&#8217; amended complaint in full, noting that its reliance on the sources in the Kerrisdale Report was an insufficient basis to allege securities fraud. The court allowed the plaintiffs an opportunity to amend their complaint, which they did in June 2018. The Company again moved to dismiss the new complaint, and briefing on the motion concluded in November 2018.</p> <p style="font: 10pt/normal Cambria, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 35.45pt; text-align: justify">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt/normal Cambria, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 35.45pt; text-align: justify">On February 22, 2019, the United States District Court for the Central District of California again dismissed all of the securities class action claims brought against the Company and certain of its officers and directors in the Diaz action, captioned <i>Victor Diaz v.

The Court ruled in favor of the Company and its officers and directors on all claims and ordered the case closed.

The share purchase option plan (the &#8220;2017 Rolling Option Plan&#8221;) is based on the maximum number of eligible shares (including any issuances from the Group&#8217;s RSU and DSU plans ) equaling a rolling percentage of up to 10% of the Company&#8217;s outstanding common shares, calculated from time to time. Pursuant to the 2017 Rolling Option Plan, if outstanding share purchase options (&#8220;options&#8221;) are exercised and the number of issued and outstanding common shares of the Company increases, then the options available to grant under the plan increase proportionately (assuming there are no issuances under the RSU and DSU plans). The exercise price of each option is set by the Board of Directors at the time of grant but cannot be less than the market price, being the 5-day volume weighted average trading price calculated the day before the grant. Options can have a maximum term of five years and typically terminate 90 days following the termination of the optionee&#8217;s employment or engagement. In the case of death or retirement, any outstanding vested options will expire the earlier of the expiry date or one year from date of death or retirement. The vesting period for options is at the discretion of the Board of Directors at the time the options are granted.</p> <p style="font: 10pt/normal Cambria, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 0.5in; text-align: justify">&#160;</p> <p style="font: 10pt/normal Cambria, Times, Serif;

At the end of each reporting period, until the RSU liability is settled, the RSU liability&#8217;s fair value is remeasured based on the quoted TSX closing price for shares multiplied by the number of RSUs that will vest and be converted into common shares, and amortized over the vesting period of the RSUs, with any change in fair value charged to share-based compensation.

The remaining 1/3 will vest in September 2019. On grant date, the Group has treated the September grant as equity-settled as the terms of the grant stipulated that payment would be in shares. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Group determined the tax obligation on vesting of the second tranche of the RSUs as $7. In 2017, the Group had withheld 13,782 RSUs to settle and pay the tax obligations of $30 and issued the balance in shares. Subsequent to the reporting period, the second tranche of RSU's were settled by the Group (note 15(a)). The Group's Compensation Committee (the "Comp Committee") granted the RSUs on August 9, 2018, to an officer of the Group with an expiry date of December 2021 and an initial one-year vesting period from date of grant. In January 2019, the Comp Committee agreed with management that it was in the best interest of the Group to accelerate the vesting period to January 28, 2019. The Group has determined that this grant should be accounted for as cash-settled given the cash settlement of a previous grant. Accordingly, during the period, the Group has recognized $80 as SBC with a corresponding increase in the RSU liability for this grant based on the quoted market value of the Company's common shares as of the reporting date. At the end of each reporting period, until the RSU liability is settled, the RSU liability's fair value is remeasured based on the quoted TSX closing price for shares multiplied by the number of RSUs that will vest and be converted into common shares, and amortized over the vesting period of the RSUs, with any change in fair value charged to share-based compensation. Subsequent to the reporting period, the RSU's were settled by the Group (note 15(a)). The Group settled the payout of 639,031 RSUs by making a cash payment of $1,098, which was based on the 5-day average of TSX closing prices for shares up to July 11, 2017 of $1.72 per RSU pursuant to the terms of the RSU Plan. The Group recognized this payment as a decrease in the SBC Reserve.
