NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 AND 2023

(Unaudited, Presented in Canadian Dollars) **1.**NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS Avrupa Minerals Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated on January 23, 2008 under the Business Corporations Act of British Columbia and its registered office is 15th floor, 1111 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada, V6E 2J3. The Company changed its name on July 7, 2010 and began trading under the symbol “AVU” on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) on July 14, 2010. On September 20, 2012, the Company listed in Europe on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the trading symbol “8AM”. The Company is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties in Europe.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its commitments, continue operations and realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. There are material uncertainties that cast significant doubt about the appropriateness of the going concern assumption.

If the Company is to advance or develop its mineral properties further, it will be necessary to obtain additional financing and while it has been successful in the past, there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so in the future. Failure to raise sufficient funds would result in the Company’s inability to make future required property payments, which would result in the loss of those property options.

These financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported expenses and statement of financial position classifications that would be necessary were the going concern assumption inappropriate, and these adjustments could be material.

**2.**BASIS OF PREPARATION

a)Statement of compliance

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” (“IAS 34”) using accounting policies consistent with IFRS Accounting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations of the IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”).

b)Basis of preparation These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except forfinancial instruments that have been measured at fair value.  In addition, these condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information. The preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with IAS 34 requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses.  Actual results may differ from these estimates.  These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared on the basis of IFRS Accounting Standards that are published at the time of preparation.

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 AND 2023 (Unaudited, Presented in Canadian Dollars) **3.**MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION

In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included.

Alvalade:

On November 19, 2019, the Company and MAEPA (collectively the “Company”) and Minas de Aguas Teñidas, S.A. (“Sandfire MATSA” or “MATSA”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Sandfire Mineira Portugal,Unipessoal Lda.

The earning of this interest, subsequent arrangements that may be entered into to explore the assets and, if warranted, the development of one or more projects are referred to as the “Transaction”.

On March 27, 2020, MAEPA and SMP entered into a Quota Transfer Agreement pursuant to which MAEPA split its 100% interest in the share capital of PorMining into two quotas, representing 51% and 49% of the company’s share capital, and sold the 51% quota to SMP for the nominal value of €510.

On March 27, 2020, the Company, MAEPA, Sandfire MATSA and SMP entered into the PorMining Lda. Shareholders’ Agreement (the “Agreement”). Pursuant to the Agreement:

·PorMining has five directors. From the effective date until the second option exercise date, three will be nominated by SMP and two by MAEPA. Thereafter, four will be nominated by SMP and one will be nominated by MAEPA.

Phase I – First Option During Phase I, MAEPA granted SMP the sole and exclusive right to hold an undivided 51% interest in PorMining (the first option) for at least three years from the effective date or the issue (issued on June 15, 2020) of the Experimental Exploitation License (the “EEL”) by DGEG to PorMining. SMP’s right to maintain its 51% interest is conditional upon Sandfire MATSA: ·Paying €400,000 to the Company on or before the effective date (€200,000 was received in December 2019 and the remaining €200,000 was received in June 2020);

·Funding or providing the necessary financial instrument to cover the guarantee, which will be returned to Sandfire MATSA following the release of the guarantee by DGEG (funded €100,000 in June 2020); and

·Funding expenditures (the first option expenditures) on the mineral rights in an aggregate amount of €2,400,000 (€1,200,000 within the first 12 months following the effective date [met] and €1,200,000 in the next 24 months [met]) on or before three years from the effective date or the issue of the EEL. Effectively in March 2022, Sandfire MATSA completed the Phase I First Option by funding a total of €2,500,000 on the Alvalade project, including the €100,000 guarantee with DGEG, and SMP unconditionally earned the 51% interest in PorMining. During Phase I, MAEPA acted as the operator of the mineral rights with PorMining paying MAEPA an operator’s fee equal to €100,000 per year, paid monthly starting June 16, 2020, funded by Sandfire MATSA and which formed part of the first option expenditures. In all other phases, PorMining will be the operator unless it appoints another person to act as operator. The operator is responsible for developing and submitting work programs to the technical committee or the board of directors for consideration and approval and to implement work programs when approved according to the approved budget. The technical committee is comprised of two representatives from each of SMP and MAEPA and will be in effect until the first option exercise date. Thereafter, the board of directors will make all decisions with respect to the mineral rights. Upon the completion of Phase I, Sandfire MATSA and PorMining continued with having MAEPA acting as the operator and PorMining continued paying the operator’s fee.  During the six months ended June 30, 2024, MAEPA received €50,000 ($73,430) (2023 - €50,000 ($72,840)) operator’s fee where the fund was included in reimbursements from optionee.

If at any time after the 51/49 Phase has commenced SMP’s interest is reduced to below 10% as a result of dilution calculations, its interest will be deemed to be converted to a 1.5% royalty, which royalty shall only be payable up to a maximum total payment of €13,000,000 after which it will no longer be applicable. Upon conversion to the royalty, SMP will have no further rights or interest in respect of the assets under the Agreement or the shareholders’ agreement except for the royalty and the termination provisions apply.

If at any time during the 51/49 Phase MAEPA’s interest is reduced to 15% as a result of dilution calculations, then its interest will be deemed to be converted to a 15% “carried interest” following which MAEPA will not be required to contribute to any further work programs and will not be subject to any further dilution until such time as a feasibility study has been prepared, at which point Phase III will have been deemed to have commenced and MAEPA will have to sell the option.

During the 51/49 Phase, the parties will fund the maintenance payments and contribute to the costs of any approved work and/or development programs in proportion to their proportionate share.

Phase III – Development and Operation

Phase III commences on the second option exercise date and continues until the deemed conversion of the interest of a party to a royalty.

Kosovo

Slivova (formerly Slivovo) license: Byrnecut International Limited (“Byrnecut”) earned an 85% interest in the Slivovo property after forwarding $2,834,986 (€2,000,000) for the Slivovo property to the Company and completing a Preliminary Feasibility Study (“PFS”) by April 10, 2017. Byrnecut and the Company set up a joint venture entity known as Peshter Mining J.S.C. (“Peshter Mining”) to reflect the 85:15 ownership and transferred the Slivovo license intoPeshter Mining with Byrnecut being the operator. Avrupa’s interest in Peshter Mining was subsequently diluted to below 10%, resulting in the Company’s interest in Peshter Mining being converted into a 2% Net Smelter Return.

On December 31, 2019, the Company wrote down its interest in Slivovo by $143,154 to $1 as the Company was in negotiations with the Kosovo Mining Bureau, along with Byrnecut and Peshter Mining as to how to possibly extend the life of this license.  During fiscal 2020, Byrnecut decided not to proceed with advancing Slivovo.  Rather than dropping the license and potentially allowing a third party to stake the open land, Innomatik Exploration Kosovo LLC (“IEK”), Byrnecut and Peshter Mining entered into a binding term sheet (the “TS”) whereby the parties set out the terms on which Peshter Mining would surrender the existing tenements, thereby enabling IEK to apply, as sole beneficial owner, for one or more tenements over the entirety of the tenement area.The license was officially released back to the government. As of December 31, 2020, the Company wrote off $1. On November 2, 2023, Peshter Mining was deregistered and dissolved. In March 2021, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary, AVU Kosova LLC, to apply for a new Slivovo exploration permit. In May 2022, the Company received a seven-year exploration permit known as the Slivova license.

As consideration for Byrnecut ensuring that Peshter Mining complies with its obligations under the TS, IEK must pay to Byrnecut milestone cash payments totaling €375,000 and milestone gold payments totaling 850 troy ounces of gold (together known as “Success Payments”) as follows:

Cash

·€125,000 within 30 days of the first to occur of the completion of a positive bankable feasibility study or the board of directors of IEK making a decision to proceed with the development of a commercial mining operation in respect of all or any part of the tenement area;

·€125,000 within 30 days of issue of a mining license in respect of all or any party of the tenement area; and

·€125,000 within 30 days of commencement of construction of a mine within the tenement area.

Gold

·100 troy ounces within 30 days of commencement of commercial production (“CCP”);

·175 troy ounces within 30 days of the one-year anniversary of CCP;

·250 troy ounces within 30 days of the two-year anniversary of CCP; and

·325 troy ounces within 30 days of the three-year anniversary of CCP. On August 24, 2022, and subsequently confirmed via aDefinitive Agreement (the “Agreement”) on May 2, 2023, the Company and Western Tethyan Resources (“WTR”) entered into an agreement in respect of the Slivova project. WTR is a private exploration company and is 75% owned by London AIM-listed Ariana Resources PLC. Pursuant to the Agreement, WTR can earn up to an 85% interest in the Slivova project.

6. PROPERTY DEPOSITS / TAX DEPOSITS Tax deposits:

In November 2018, MAEPA paid €56,505 ($88,201) in lieu of bank guarantees of €77,918 ($121,625) to the Directora de Finanças de Braga in Portugal. This amount was comprised of €51,920 ($81,044) in respect of stamp tax and €4,585 ($7,157) in respect of VAT. The stamp tax portion relates to the interpretation that intercompany advances received by MAEPA are financing loans and, accordingly, are subject to stamp tax. The VAT portion relates to certain invoices for vehicle usage and construction services. As of December 31, 2019, the Company estimated that the judicial review process would take approximately one year for the VAT claim and three to five years for the stamp tax claim and that the likelihood of success for each was 50%. As a result, tax deposits were written down by $41,200 (€28,252)during the year ended December 31, 2019.During 2020, the judicial review ruled that approximately €1,971 VAT remained to be paid while the rest were annulled.  The Company accepted this ruling.  The Company is still waiting for a trial date regarding the stamp tax and it is estimated that the process can take another three to four years. 7. ADVANCE AND INVESTMENT IN AKKERMAN FINLAND OY

10. LOSS PER SHARE

Basic and diluted loss per share

The calculation of basic and diluted loss per share for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was based on the loss attributable to common shareholders of $64,709 (2023 – $78,633) and a weighted average number of common shares outstanding of 54,674,754 (2023 – 54,674,754). Diluted loss per share did not include the effect of 1,575,000 share purchase options and 16,666,667 warrants outstanding at six months end June 30, 2024 (2023 – 1,620,750 share purchase options, 20,886,308 warrants and 412,500 finder’s options) as they are anti-dilutive. 11. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The fair values of the Company’s cash, other receivables,advance to related party, due from optionee, accounts payables and accrued liabilities and due to related parties approximate their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, including credit risk, liquidity risk, interest risk, commodity price risk and currency risk.

(a)Credit risk

The Company’s cash is held in financial institutions in Canada, Portugal and Kosovo.  Amounts are receivable from optionee and a related party.

(b)Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company manages liquidity risk through the management of its capital structure. As at June 30, 2024, the Company had cash of $21,515 (December 31, 2023 - $121,745),advance to related party of $93,277 (December 31, 2023 - $72,084), due from optionee of $47,139 (December 31, 2023 - $18,409) and other receivables of $13,581 (December 31, 2023 - $13,559) to settle current liabilities of $155,990 (December 31, 2023 - $100,138). Accounts payable and accrued liabilities are due within the current operating period.

(c)Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is not material as the Company does not have any significant financial assets or liabilities subject to fluctuation in interest rates.

(d)Equity market price risk

The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to equity market prices. Price risk as it relates to the Company is defined as the potential adverse impact on the Company’s ability to finance due to movements in individual equity prices or general movements in the level of the stock market. The Company closely monitors individual equity movements and the stock market to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.

11. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

(e)Currency risk The Company’s property interests in Portugal, Finland and Kosovo make it subject to foreign currency fluctuations and inflationary pressures which may adversely affect the Company’s financial position,results of operations and cash flows. The Company is affected by changes in exchange rates between the Canadian Dollar and foreign functional currencies. The Company does not invest in foreign currency contracts to mitigate the risks. The Company has net monetaryassets of $39,300 dominated in Euros. A 1% change in the absolute rate of exchange in US dollars and Euros would affect its net income by $500. IFRS 7 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the input to valuation techniques used to measure fair value as follows:

Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and

Level 3 – inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The Company does not have any financial instruments that are measured at fair value.

12. SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURE WITH RESPECT TO CASH FLOWS

The non-cash transactions during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

·As at June 30, 2024, a total of $6,000 (2023 - $Nil) in deferred financing costs were included in due to related parties.

13. MANAGEMENT OF CAPITAL RISK

The Company manages its cash, common shares, warrants and share purchase options as capital (see Note 8).  The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern and to maintain a flexible capital structure which optimizes the costs of capital at an acceptable risk.

The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets.  To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue new shares, acquire or dispose of assets or adjust the amount of cash and cash equivalents held.

In order to maximize ongoing operating efforts, the Company does not pay out dividends.  The Company’s investment policy is to invest its short-term excess cash in highly liquid short-term interest-bearing investments with maturities of 90 days or less from the original date of acquisition, selected with regards to the expected timing of expenditures from continuing operations.

The Company expects its current capital resources will be sufficient to carry out its exploration or operations in the near term.

(An Exploration Stage Company)

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – QUARTERLY HIGHLIGHTS

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024

OVERVIEW AND INTRODUCTORY COMMENT

Avrupa Minerals Ltd. (“Avrupa” or the “Company”) is a growth-oriented junior exploration and development company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the trading symbol “AVU”. The Company is currently focusing on discovering economic mineral deposits, using a hybrid prospect generator model (getting other partners to fund our properties to minimize dilution as well as funding our own exploration programs on our top projects), in politically stable and prospective regions of Europe, including Portugal, Kosovo and Finland.

Over the course of 14 years, Avrupa has brought in partners on its exploration projects that have invested approximately $32.75 million in exploration in addition to funds spent by Avrupa. That exploration has led to two discoveries – one gold deposit in Kosovo and one deposit of polymetallic VMS mineralization in the prolific Iberian Pyrite Belt famous for large copper-zinc deposits in southern Portugal.

While Avrupa has been focused on advancing its exploration projects with funds from partners who can earn an interest in its projects by spending exploration funds thereby reducing dilution for shareholders, the Company completed its own exploration program at the Alvalade property. This resulted in the Company entering into an Earn-in Joint Venture Agreement for the Alvalade project with Minas de Aguas Teñidas, S.A. (“Sandfire MATSA” or “MATSA”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Sandfire Mineira Portugal, Unipessoal Lda. (“SMP”), formerly Emisurmin Unipessoal Lda. (“EUL”) in November 2019.

On December 14, 2021, the Company signed a binding letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with Dutch holding company, Akkerman Exploration B.V. (“AEbv”) to acquire 100% ownership of Akkerman Finland OY (“AFOy”). AFOy owns three mineral reservations in the past-producing and highly prospective Vihanti-Pyhäsalmi VMS district in central Finland and one gold project in the Oijarvi greenstone belt Finland. On February 25, 2022, the Letter Agreement was superseded by the Share Purchase Agreement. The Company currently owns 49% of AFOy.

Avrupa continues to upgrade its precious and base metal targets to JV-ready status in a variety of districts, with the idea of attracting potential partners to project-specific and/or regional exploration programs, and to look for new projects in certain mineral belts in Europe, or nearby.

This MD&A is dated August 27, 2024 and discloses specified information up to that date. Unless otherwise noted, all currency amounts are expressed in Canadian dollars.  The following information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the related notes for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 and the related notes thereto.

Highlight of the 2023 drilling program

On February 21, 2024, the Company reported that drilling continued throughout the year around the Alvalade pre-exploitation license in several target areas, including Caveira South, Casas Novas, Lousal Northwest, Brejo, and Sesmarias.  The Company drilled 14 holes totaling 6,530 meters in 2023:  two at Caveira South, one at Casas Novas, four in the Lousal Northwest area, one at Brejo, and six in the Sesmarias massive sulfide VMS deposit area.

Picture 1

**Figures 1, 1a.**2023 drilling along trend of Pyrite Belt mineralization within the Alvalade JV license, with Sesmarias enlargement.  Background data from 2020-21 helicopter-supported VTEM project.  Intense electromagnetic response to railroad tracks and power lines in linear purple colors.

The highlight of the 2023 drilling program was the re-discovery of the high-grade copper-zinc-lead-silver mineralization at Sesmarias in SES23-047 (see AVU news release June 12, 2023).  Follow-up drilling at Sesmarias confirmed potential for more high-grade massive sulfide and stockwork mineralization in the Central Zone at Sesmarias (see AVU news release November 28, 2023).  The success of the Sesmarias drilling underlies potential for the next phase of drilling there, tentatively commencing in Q2 of 2024.  This phase will be aimed at defining the high-grade mineralization located in/around the hinge of the Sesmarias Synform, particularly along strike between the 250 South and 800 South section lines, noted in the figures below.  Plans for the next phase are underway. To enhance targeting at Sesmarias, The Company performed an IP-Resistivity survey at the end of 2023 covering Sesmarias Central and Northern Zones and the Brejo target area just north of Sesmarias.  Results were equivocal and not easy to interpret, and remain under evaluation, particularly for the North area and for the Brejo area where we have less historic drilling information.  The level of success in the coming phase of drilling will determine how best to move towards a mining license application which will be necessary in the first half of 2025. Picture 5

**Figure 2.**Sesmarias section lines, AVU generated.  Drillholes in red were completed during 2023 drilling program.  Coordinate system, UTM Zone 29 (ED50). Drilling in the northern target areas of the Alvalade license was less successful than at Sesmarias.  Drilling intersected narrow lenses of polymetallic sulfide mineralization in both Caveira South drill holes and wispy, distal facies, replacement sulfide mineralization in the Casas Novas drill hole.  The Company hopes to do follow-up drilling in both areas at some point in the future, but there are no plans for this in the up-coming drilling phase.  Drilling at Lousal Northwest intercepted the mineral horizon black shales, but no significant sulfide mineralization. Further to this report, at this time, the Company has completed planning for the upcoming drilling program at Sesmarias to test the potential for more significant massive sulfide mineralization in the central and northern sectors of the deposit.  The Company expects to drill about at least 4,200 meters in the upcoming program.

On June 3, 2024, the Company announced that planning was nearly completed for a new phase of drilling at the Sesmarias copper-zinc volcanogenic massive sulfide prospect within the Alvalade Joint Venture Project. The Company planned to drill seven 600-meter holes along a strike length of 550-600 meters in the Central and Northern sectors of the Sesmarias mineralization (Sections 250S through 800S), potentially followed by two more 600-meter holes that will be collared where necessary, for a possible total of 5,400 meters.  The new program follows on a successful 6-hole campaign completed during Q3-Q4 2023.

Starting from the north and moving south, in physical location order, we anticipate the following drill holes:

·Section 250S – one drill hole behind (to the NE) of SES21-045/046;

·Section 350S – one drill hole behind (steeper) SES21-043/043A;

·Along strike, in the never-been-tested area and depth between Sections 350S and 500S and behind SES015 – two holes at different inclinations;

·Between Sections 500S and 650S – one drill hole behind (steeper) SES23-051;

·Section 650S – one drill hole from SES23-047/041 location at an intermediate- inclination between high grade SES23-047 and SES21-041;

·Section 800S – one hole behind SES23-048 (to the NE);

·Possibly two more holes, collar location to be determined on basis of results.

·Exact collar locations will be determined closer to the time of drilling.

The following map summarizes the work completed and planned at Sesmarias: Picture 6 **Figure 3.**History of drilling at Sesmarias.  In the Central Zone, the blue shape between Sections 650S and 800S represents the surface projection of the potential high-grade hinge zone, while the blue area intersected by the discovery holes, SES002 and SES003, is thought to be a faulted-off block from the hinge in that area.  In the North Zone, the red area is the projection of the east limb of the synform, while purple is the west limb.  In the South Zone, green represents the surface projection of the west limb of the synform, while no drill holes, to date, have targeted the east limb in the South Zone.  There is a long, completely untested strike length of potential mineralization between 350S and 500S.  Drill hole locations in red represent drilling from last year’s 6-hole program, and notations in turquoise highlight the sections where the upcoming program will test the mineralized massive sulfide body.

The following conceptual cross section summarizes the geology and location of massive sulfide mineralization hosted in the Sesmarias synformal structure:

**Figure 4.**Compilation of geological results from drilling in the Northern and Central sectors at Sesmarias, courtesy of PorMining staff.  The field of view is 500 meters left to right, and approximately 1,400 meters of depth (strike length) SE to NW.  The interpretation demonstrates potential for more massive and stockwork mineralization in both limbs of the synform and in the hinge area along a significant strike distance.  The expectation is to find higher grades in and around the hinge of the synform in the Central Zone, and also to the north into the Northern Zone.  Drilling in the upcoming campaign will target the hinge zone and environs of the fold along a strike length of 500-600 meters NW to SE. Picture 1 **Figure 5.**Contour map showing inferred massive sulfide mineralization, using copper equivalents (CuEq) as an exploration targeting tool.

Note: We use CuEq strictly as a proxy for total metal content, and as such, simply as an exploration targeting tool.  In no way, are we commenting on a possible resource size or value.  When reporting drill results, we utilize only individual metals’ values, as reported by an accredited laboratory. For exploration purposes, using the results from Sesmarias drilling, 2014 to present, we calculate the total amount of copper, lead, zinc, silver, and gold, without respect or indication of any/all further downstream activities, followed by calculating the value of said total metal content (in this case, as of April 3, 2024, using:  Cu = US$ 4.11/lb.; Pb = US$ 0.92/lb.; Zn = US$ 1.13/lb.; Ag = US$ 26.25/oz.; and Au = US$ 2273/oz.).  Finally, we calculate the equivalent content**of copper, or CuEq, by dividing the value of the total contained metals by the price of copper at that time.  The shape and contouring of the inferred Sesmarias mineralization, using Leapfrog geological modeling software, is courtesy of the Sandfire Portugal geological team.  While metals’ prices have increased sharply since the original CuEq calculations, the shape of the VMS target area remains much the same. We have designed the upcoming drill program to upgrade the +2% CuEq zone in the SES Central sector and expand the potential +2% CuEq domain into the SES North sector where historic drilling is less concentrated.  Yellow and gray zones generally indicate areas where historic drilling missed the target and/or recent, better-targeted drilling is sparse.

On August 13, 2024, the Company announced that drilling at Sesmarias commenced at the end of June.  Drilling is designed to upgrade and enhance the body of higher grade, hinge zone, copper-zinc mineralization intersected in previous holes drilled in 2021 and during last year’s successful program (see previous AVU news releases: June 12, 2023; November 28, 2023; and June 3, 2024).

Slivova Project (Kosovo)

Work continued at the Slivova gold-silver project in Kosovo during 2023, undertaken by partner Western Tethyan Resources (WTR), and supported by 70%-owner Ariana Resources.  Highlights of the work included the completion of a NI 43-101 Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) study that included a significant mineral resources’ upgrade.  The full PEA document, which includes the NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate, may be accessed on SEDAR+ or via the Avrupa Minerals website:  Slivova PEA.

Western Tethyan also commenced environmental and social baseline studies in the project area, committing to a strong and positive social relationship with the communities around the project area, and performed exploration rock and soil sampling around the license to help identify satellite deposits.  The government issued trenching and drilling permits for this year, and Western Tethyan is in the midst of planning and budgeting for the 2024 program.  Work planned, in addition to continued environmental and social licensing, includes trenching over several untested targets and exploration drilling outside of the main deposit in efforts to increase the mineral resources.  Eventually, there may be some infill drilling completed in 2024, as well.  We anticipate that Western Tethyan will perform the necessary work to reach the 51% ownership level of the license during 2024, as required by the JV agreement.

On August 13, 2024, the Company updated its drilling program at the Slivova Project. WTR plans to drill ~3,000 meters at the Slivova deposit beginning later this summer.  While WTR is presently completing trenching and property-wide soil sampling to upgrade potential satellite deposits to Slivova, the Company expects that most of the upcoming work will be directed towards resource development in the main Slivova deposit.  Further information concerning the work plans is expected in the coming weeks.

In June 2024, the Company and WTR extended the completion date for the Stage 1 expenditure of €650,000 at the Slivova Project from September 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024.

Finland

During 2023, Avrupa’s 49%-held Akkerman Finland Oy (AFOy) continued to advance the exploration program in the Vihanti-Pyhäsalmi VMS District of central Finland.  The joint venture now holds two exploration permits covering known massive sulfide deposits (Kangasjärvi and Hallaperä), an application over a massive sulfide deposit (Rauhala), and an exploration permit covering a massive sulfide target (Kolima) that has been approved by the mining bureau, but not yet issued due to appeals court handling of the process. Basic exploration work, continued review of historic core and geophysical data, and modeling of SkyTEM data from the Kangasjärvi license suggest an outstanding un-drilled target close to the old Kangasjärvi Mine.  The joint venture is making plans for drilling at the target in 2024.  There are further SkyTEM anomalies that may rate drilling after planned exploration work during the up-coming field season. Picture 1

**Figure 3.**Kangasjärvi SkyTEM drill target, section view.  The joint venture plans three diamond drill holes totaling 1000 meters later this year.  There are other SkyTEM anomalies around the license that may become drill-ready later this year.

AFOy officially acquired the Hallaperä exploration license in the past year.  The license covers a known massive sulfide deposit discovered by Outokumpu in 1967.  The deposit is 1,500 meters long and ranges from two to 18 meters thick.  It remains open at depth below 200 meters from the surface.  The most recent drilling, in 1990, cut 1.85 meters @ 1.72% Cu, 1.7 g/t Au, and 44 g/t Ag, with no further work completed since that time.

Picture 4

**Figure 4.**Copy of the original geological map of the Hallaperä VMD deposit.

The Finnish mining bureau recently awarded an exploration permit to AFOy for another license covering a massive sulfide deposit near the historic Vihanti Mine.  The Rauhala deposit was discovered in 1985 by the Finnish Geological Survey (GTK), and later worked by Outokumpu Oy.  It measures nearly 600 meters long and 350 meters wide and averages about 2 meters thick, as presently known.  Virtually no work on the deposit has been completed in the past 20-25 years.

Afbeelding 13 **Figure 6.**Section view of the sediment-hosted Rauhala Deposit, sub-cropping under 2 to 20 meters of till.

On August 13, 2024, the Company updated its drilling program at the Kangasjärvi Zinc-Copper Prospect. Detailed work carried out at Kangasjärvi over the past three years has led to the discovery of exciting new targets close to the historic deposit.  The targets consist of strong electromagnetic (EM) anomalism detected by a deep-penetrating, helicopter EM survey.  The intense electric conductivity may reflect the presence of an undiscovered center of massive mineralization, including copper-rich sulfides and a stockwork feeder zone. Modelling points to a possible mineral body measuring 500m by 600m, starting at a depth of 100m and continuing down to more than 500m at both the Kangas Main and Kangas North targets.  Neither target has been drilled previously.

Picture 15 **Figure 7.**Location of the two Kangas EM targets, along with historic drilling locations. The Company and partner Akkerman Exploration are planning three drill holes, totalling 1,000 meters, in the two targets at Kangas Main and Kangas North.  The Company plans to start during early Q4, depending on drill rig availability.  More information will be distributed as plans coalesce and the drilling company is locked into a time slot during October.

QUARTERLY FINANCIAL CONDITION

Capital Resources

On August 14, 2024, the Company announced that it intends to complete a non-brokered private placement by issuing 10,000,000 units (“Unit”) at a price of $0.035 per Unit for gross proceeds of $350,000. Each Unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share of the Company at an exercise price of $0.10 per common share, for a period of 36 months from the date of closing of the offering. Finders' fees of 7.0% in cash will be paid to eligible parties.

The proceeds from the issuance of the Units will be used by the Company to fund drilling and exploration programs in Finland, to fund ongoing operations in Portugal and Kosovo, and for general corporate purposes.

The Company is aware of the current conditions in the financial markets and has planned accordingly. The Company’s current treasury and the future cash flows from warrants and options, along with the planned developments within the Company as well as with its JV partner might not be sufficient to carry out its activities throughout 2024. The Company might have to raise additional financing under difficult financial conditions.  If the market conditions prevail or improve, the Company will make adjustment to budgets accordingly.

Liquidity

As at June 30, 2024, the Company had a working capital of $34,254 (December 31, 2023 – $132,571). With respect to working capital, $21,515 was held in cash (December 31, 2023 - $121,745). The decrease in cash was due to (a) the general administrative expenses and exploration work expenses totaling $26,481; (b) advance to Akkerman Finland OY of $98,156; (c) purchase of equipment of $593; while being offset by (d) proceeds from share subscription of $25,000.

In November 2018, MAEPA paid €56,505 ($88,201) in lieu of bank guarantees of €77,918 ($121,625) to the Directora de Finanças de Braga in Portugal. This amount was comprised of €51,920 ($81,044) in respect of stamp tax and €4,585 ($7,157) in respect of VAT. The stamp tax portion relates to the interpretation that intercompany advances received by MAEPA are financing loans and, accordingly, are subject to stamp tax. The VAT portion relates to certain invoices for vehicle usage and construction services. As of December 31, 2019, the Company estimated that the judicial review process would take approximately one year for the VAT claim and three to five years for the stamp tax claim and that the likelihood of success for each was 50%. As a result, tax deposits were written down by $41,200 (€28,252) during the year ended December 31, 2019. During 2020, the judicial review ruled that approximately €1,971 VAT remained to be paid while the rest were annulled. The Company accepted this ruling.  The Company is still waiting for a trial date regarding the stamp tax and it is estimated that the process can take another two to three years. Other than disclosed in this MD&A – Quarterly Highlights, the Company does not have any commitments, expected or unexpected, or uncertainties. RISK FACTORS
