BRAVO MINING CORP.

$[●] 23,000,000 Offered Shares

This prospectus (“ Prospectus ”) qualifies the distribution (the “ Offering ”) of common shares (the “ Offered Shares ”) of Bravo Mining Corp. (the “ Company ” or “ Bravo ”) consisting of an initial public offering of 23,000,000 Offered Shares by the Company at a price of $[●] per Offered Share (the “ Offering Price ”).

It is currently anticipated that the Offering Price will be between $1.75 and $2.00 per Offered Share, and that the Offering will be for aggregate gross proceeds of between $40,250,000 and $46,000,000, not including the Over-Allotment Option (as defined herein) granted to the Agents (as defined herein).

The Offered Shares are being offered for sale on a “best efforts” agency basis without underwriter liability pursuant to an agency agreement (the “ Agency Agreement ”) to be entered into among the Company and Canaccord Genuity Corp. and BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc., as co-lead agents and joint bookrunners (together, the “ Co-Lead Agents ”), and National Bank Financial Inc., Cormark Securities Inc. and INFOR Financial Inc. (collectively, with the Co-Lead Agents, the “ Agents ”). The terms of the Offering, including the Offering Price, have been determined by arm’s length negotiation between the Company and the Co-Lead Agents, on behalf of the Agents, in the context of the market.

Price: $[●] per Offered Share

There is currently no market through which the Offered Shares may be sold and purchasers may not be able to resell the Offered Shares purchased under this Prospectus. This may affect the pricing of the Offered Shares in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of the Offered Shares, and the extent of issuer regulation. See “ Risk Factors ”.

ii

The Company has applied to list the common shares of the Company (the “ Common Shares ”), including the Offered Shares, on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “ TSXV ”) under the symbol “BRVO”. Listing will be subject to the Company fulfilling all of the listing requirements of the TSXV, including without limitation, the distribution of Common Shares to a minimum number of public shareholders and the Company meeting certain financial and other requirements. Closing of the Offering is conditional, among other things, on the Common Shares (including the Offered Shares) being conditionally approved for listing on the TSXV. See “ Risk Factors ” and “ Plan of Distribution ”.

As at the date of this Prospectus, the Company does not have any of its securities listed or quoted, has not applied to list or quote any of its securities, and does not intend to apply to list or quote any of its securities, on the Toronto Stock Exchange, Aequitas NEO Exchange Inc., a U.S. marketplace, or a marketplace outside Canada and the United States of America (other than the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange or the PLUS markets operated by PLUS Markets Group plc).

An investment in the Offered Shares is subject to a number of risks that should be considered by a prospective purchaser. Prospective purchasers should carefully consider the risk factors described under “ Risk Factors ” and elsewhere in this Prospectus before purchasing the Offered Shares. See “ Risk Factors ” and “ Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements ”.

Notes:

  • (1) Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agency Agreement and in consideration for the services to be rendered by the Agents in connection with the Offering, the Agents will receive a cash fee (the “ Agents’ Fee ”) equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Offered Shares (including any Additional Shares (as defined herein) sold on exercise of the Over-Allotment Option), provided the cash fee payable on subscriptions for Offered Shares by persons on the president’s list (the “ President’s List ”), as agreed upon between the Company and the Co-Lead Agents, shall be reduced to 3.0% of the gross proceeds from such sales, other than in respect of subscriptions for Offered Shares by insiders of the Company for which it shall be reduced to 1.0% of the gross proceeds from such sales. The size of the President’s List will be for up to an aggregate maximum of $[●]. The Company will also pay the Agents’ expenses, including legal fees and disbursements. See “ Plan of Distribution ”.

  • (2) After deducting the Agents’ Fee (assuming no Offered Shares are sold to purchasers on the President’s List) but before deducting the expenses of the Offering, estimated at approximately $[●], payable by the Company. These expenses will be paid from the proceeds of the Offering. See “ Plan of Distribution ” and “ Use of Proceeds and Available Funds ”.

  • (3) The Agents have been granted an over-allotment option (the “ Over-Allotment Option ”), exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time on and for a period of 30 days following the Closing Date (as defined herein), to sell up to 3,450,000 additional common shares (the “ Additional Shares ”) of the Company (representing 15% of the aggregate number of Offered Shares sold pursuant to the Offering) at the Offering Price, to cover over-allotments, if any, and for market stabilization purposes. The grant of the Over-Allotment Option and the Additional Shares issuable upon exercise of the Over-Allotment Option are hereby qualified for distribution under this Prospectus. A purchaser who acquires Additional Shares forming part of the Agents’ over-allocation position acquires such Additional Shares under this Prospectus regardless of whether the over-allocation position is ultimately filled through the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option or secondary market purchases. If the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full, the total “ Price to the Public ”, “ Agents’ Fee ” and “ Net Proceeds to the Company ” (before deducting the expenses of the Offering (see note 2 above)) will be $[●], $[●] and $[●], respectively. See “ Plan of Distribution ”.

Unless the context otherwise requires, when used herein, all references to the “Offering” include the exercise of the OverAllotment Option, and all references to “Offered Shares” include the Additional Shares issuable assuming the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option.

iii

The following table sets out the maximum number of securities under option that may be issued by the Company to the Agents pursuant to the Agency Agreement:

Agents’ Position
Over-Allotment Option
Maximum Size or Number
of Securities Available
Up to 3,450,000 Additional
Shares
Exercise Period
Up to 30 days from and
including the Closing Date
Exercise Price
$[●] per Additional Share

The Offering is not guaranteed or underwritten by any person. The Agents, as agents of the Company for the purposes of the Offering, conditionally offer the Offered Shares for sale on a “best efforts” basis, if, as and when issued by the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions contained in the Agency Agreement. The Agents may offer the Offered Shares at a lower price than stated above. See “ Plan of Distribution ”.

The Offering is being made in each of the provinces of Canada, except Québec. The Offered Shares will be offered in each of such provinces through those Agents or their affiliates who are registered to offer Offered Shares for sale in such provinces and such other registered dealers as may be designated by the Agents. Subject to applicable law, the Agents may offer the Offered Shares in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. Persons and in such other jurisdictions outside of Canada and the United States as agreed between the Company and the Agents. See “ Plan of Distribution ”.

Subscriptions for the Offered Shares will be received subject to rejection or allocation, in whole or in part, and the Agents reserve the right to close the subscription books at any time without notice. The closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about [●], 2022, or such other date as the Company and the Co-Lead Agents, on behalf of the Agents, may agree (the “ Closing Date ”), but in any event, within 90 days of the issuance of a receipt for the (final) prospectus or such later date as may be permitted under securities legislation. See “ Plan of Distribution ”.

It is anticipated that the Offered Shares will be delivered under the book-based system through CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. (“ CDS ”) or its nominee and deposited in electronic form. A purchaser of Offered Shares will receive only a customer confirmation from the registered dealer from or through which the Offered Shares are purchased and who is a CDS depository service participant. CDS will record the CDS participants who hold Offered Shares on behalf of owners who have purchased Offered Shares in accordance with the book-based system. No definitive certificates will be issued unless specifically requested or required. See “ Plan of Distribution ”.

Subject to applicable laws, the Agents may, in connection with the Offering, over-allot or effect transactions which are intended to stabilize or maintain the market price of the Common Shares at levels other than those which might otherwise prevail in the open market. Such transactions, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time. See “ Plan of Distribution ”.

There is no minimum amount of funds that must be raised under the Offering. This means that the Company could complete the Offering after raising only a small proportion of the Offering amount set out above.

Certain legal matters relating to the securities offered hereby will be passed upon by Cozen O’Connor LLP and Gowling WLG (Canada) LLP, on behalf of the Company, and by Cassels Brock & Blackwell LLP, on behalf of the Agents. No person is authorized by the Company or the Agents to provide any information or make any representations other than those contained in this Prospectus in connection with the issue and sale of the securities offered hereunder.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in or incorporated by reference into this Prospectus may constitute forward-looking information, future-oriented financial information or financial outlooks (collectively, “ forward-looking statements ”) within the meaning of Canadian securities laws. The use of any of the words “anticipate”, “continue”, “estimate”, “expect”, “may”, “will”, “project”, “should”, “believe” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed, anticipated or implied in such forward-looking statements. The Company believes the expectations reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable, but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in, or incorporated by reference into, this Prospectus should not be unduly relied upon. Forward-looking statements are current only as of the date of this Prospectus or as of the date specified in the documents incorporated by reference into this Prospectus. The Company does not have any policies or procedures in place concerning the updating of forward-looking statements other than those required under applicable securities laws.

In particular, this Prospectus contains forward-looking statements pertaining to the following:

  • expectations generally regarding completion of this Offering and the utilization of the net proceeds of the Offering and other available funds;

  • completion of exploration work programs on the Luanga Project and the Company’s ability to complete its business objectives;

  • capital and general expenditures;

  • expectations regarding the ability to raise further capital; and

  • treatment under governmental regulatory regimes.

Assumptions underlying the expected nature and cost of the exploration programs on the Luanga Project are as set forth in Part 18 of the technical report titled “ Independent Technical Report for the Luanga PGE+Au+Ni Project, Pará State, Brazil ” dated June 27, 2022 (with an effective date of April 12, 2022), prepared by Ednie Rafael Fernandes (B.Sc. Geology, MAIG) and Marlon Sarges Ferreira (B.Sc. Geology, MAIG) of GE21 Consultoria Mineral (the “ Technical Report ”). For more information, see “ The Luanga Project ”. Assumptions underlying the Company’s working capital requirements are based on management’s experience with other public companies in the junior mineral exploration sector. Forward-looking statements pertaining to the Company’s need for and ability to raise capital in the future are based on the projected costs of operating a junior mineral exploration company, and management’s experience with raising funds in current market circumstances. Forward-looking statements regarding treatment by governmental authorities, assumes no material change in regulations, policies, or the application of the same by such authorities. While the Company considers these material factors and assumptions to be reasonable based on information currently available to it, they may prove to be incorrect.

Actual results or events could differ materially from those expressed, anticipated or implied in these forward-looking statements as a result of the risk factors set forth below and elsewhere in this Prospectus:

  • liabilities inherent in the Company’s operations and mineral projects in the exploration stage;

  • fluctuations in metal or mineral prices (including, in particular, platinum-group (palladium, platinum and rhodium), gold, silver and/or nickel prices);

  • uncertainties associated with mineral exploration and estimates of mineral deposits;

  • dependent on the success of the Luanga Project;

  • substantial capital expenditures will be required;

  • management experience and dependence on key personnel and employees;

  • uncertainty of additional funding;

  • environmental risks and other regulatory requirements;

  • fluctuations in currency exchange rates;

  • title matters;

  • industry regulation;

  • operating hazards and uninsured or uninsurable risks;

  • risks inherent in legal proceedings;

  • risks related to having a significant shareholder;

  • risks related to climate change legislation;

  • competition;

  • negative cash flow;

  • future acquisitions;

  • global economy risk;

  • dividend risk;

  • share price and stock market volatility;

  • currently no existing market for the Common Shares;

  • increased costs of being a reporting issuer and publicly traded company;

  • speculative nature of investment;

  • liquidity and future financing risk;

  • going concern risk;

  • conflicts of interest;

  • tax regulations risks;

  • foreign operations risks;

  • risks related to enforcement of legal rights;

  • risks related to anti-corruption legislation;

  • risks related to dependence on information technology systems;

  • general business risks;

  • risks related to general economic factors and volatility in the worldwide economy;

  • risks related to infectious diseases and public health crisis;

  • competition for, among other things, capital, acquisitions, equipment and skilled personnel; and

  • the other factors discussed under “ Risk Factors ”.

This list of factors is not, and should not be construed as, exhaustive. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could case actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information and statements.

ELIGIBILITY FOR INVESTMENT

In the opinion of Gowling WLG (Canada) LLP, Canadian tax counsel to the Company, and Cassels Brock & Blackwell LLP, counsel to the Agents, based on the provisions of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and the regulations thereunder (collectively, the “ Tax Act ”) as of the date hereof and all proposals to amend the Tax Act publicly announced by or on behalf of the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof, the Offered Shares, if issued on the date hereof, would be “qualified investments” under the Tax Act for a trust governed by a registered retirement savings plan (“ RRSP ”), registered retirement income fund (“ RRIF ”), deferred profit sharing plan, registered education savings plan (“ RESP ”), registered disability savings plan (“ RDSP ”) and tax-free savings account (“ TFSA ”) (collectively, “ Deferred Plans ”) provided that the Offered Shares are listed on a “designated stock exchange” as defined in the Tax Act (which currently includes the TSXV) or the Company is otherwise a “public corporation” (as such term is defined in the Tax Act).

The Common Shares are not currently listed on a “designated stock exchange” and the Company is not currently a “public corporation” as those terms are defined in the Tax Act. The Company has applied to list the Common Shares, including the Offered Shares, on the TSXV as of the day before the closing of the Offering, followed by an immediate halt in trading of the Common Shares in order to allow the Company to satisfy the conditions of the TSXV and to have the Common Shares listed and posted for trading prior to the issuance of the Offered Shares on the closing of the Offering. The Company must rely on the TSXV to list the Common Shares on the TSXV and have them posted for trading prior to the issuance of the Offered Shares on the closing of the Offering and to otherwise proceed in such manner as may be required to result in the Offered Shares being listed on the TSXV at the time of their issuance on closing of the Offering. If the Offered Shares are not listed on the TSXV at the time of their issuance on the closing of the Offering and the Company is not otherwise a “public corporation” at that time, the Offered Shares will not be “qualified investments” for the Deferred Plans at that time.

Notwithstanding that the Offered Shares may be a “qualified investment” for a Deferred Plan, the annuitant under an RRSP or RRIF, the holder of a TFSA or RDSP, or the subscriber of a RESP will be subject to a penalty tax if such Offered Shares are a “prohibited investment” (as defined in the Tax Act) for the RRSP, RRIF, RESP, RDSP or TFSA. The Offered Shares will generally not be a “prohibited investment” for a particular RRSP, RRIF, RESP, RDSP or TFSA provided that the annuitant under the RRSP or RRIF, the holder of the TFSA or RDSP, or the subscriber of the RESP, as the case may be, deals at arm’s length with the Company for purposes of the Tax Act and does not have a “significant interest” (as defined in the Tax Act) in the Company. In addition, the Offered Shares will not be a prohibited investment if such securities are “excluded property” (as defined in the Tax Act for purposes of these rules) for the particular TFSA, RRSP, RESP, RDSP or RRIF.

Persons who intend to hold Offered Shares in a trust governed by a Deferred Plan should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the application of these rules in their particular circumstances.

This summary does not contain all of the information a potential investor should consider before investing in the Offered Shares. Purchasers should carefully consider, among other things, the matters discussed under “Risk Factors”.

Overview of Bravo Mining Corp.

The Company was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “ BCBCA ”) on January 1, 2022 under the name “BPGM Metals Corp.” for the purposes of acquiring the Luanga Project indirectly through the acquisition of BPGM Mineração Ltda. (“ BPGM Mineração ”), which acquisition was completed on February 17, 2022. The Company changed its name to “BPG Metals Corp.” on January 5, 2022 and to “Bravo Mining Corp.” on May 19, 2022.

The Company is an intermediate-stage mineral exploration company focused on the exploration and development of the Luanga Project, a platinum group element (“ PGE ”), gold and nickel project located in the Carajás Mineral Province (the “ Carajás ”), Pará State, Brazil, that is comprised of a 7,810 hectares mining exploration licence. The Luanga Project is the Company’s only material property. The Company holds its interest in the Luanga Project through its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, BPGM Mineração. BPGM Mineração holds 100% right, title and interest in the Luanga Project. BPGM Mineração acquired its interest in the Luanga Project from VALE SA in consideration for aggregate payments of US$1.3 million (of which US$300,000 has been paid as of the date of this Prospectus; US$500,000 is due November 12, 2022 and US$500,000 is due November 12, 2023) to VALE SA, a major Brazilian mining company and the original owner of the Luanga Project, and the grant of a 1.0% net smelter returns (“ NSR ”) royalty on the Luanga Project to VALE SA and a 2.0% royalty on the net operating revenue generated by the production of platinum concentrate on the Luanga Project to Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social (“ BNDES ”), the Brazilian government business development bank. The Luanga Project will also be subject to Brazilian Government royalties, termed CFEM ( Compensação Financeira pela Exploração de Recursos Minerais ). These royalties depend on the commodity and include a 1.5% NSR royalty on gold, a 2% NSR royalty on palladium, platinum and rhodium and a 2% NSR royalty on nickel. As the Luanga Project is located on private ground, the Company will also be subject to the Private Landowner Royalty, which is equal to 50% of the CFEM royalties.

See “ General Development and Business of the Company – Overview and History of BPGM Mineração and the Company ” and “ – Acquisition of BPGM Holding and the Luanga Project ” for a summary of the ownership of the Luanga Project.

The Luanga Project is the subject of the Technical Report prepared by Ednie Rafael Fernandes (B.Sc. Geology, MAIG) and Marlon Sarges Ferreira (B.Sc. Geology, MAIG) of GE21 Consultoria Mineral. Ednie Rafael Fernandes and Marlon Sarges Ferreira are each a “qualified person” under National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“ NI 43-101 ”). A summary of the relevant technical disclosure concerning the Luanga Project is attached as Schedule “A” to this Prospectus.

Investment Highlights

Luanga Project – Flagship Asset with Historic High-Quality Exploration

The Luanga Project is an intermediate-stage PGE (including palladium, platinum and rhodium), gold and nickel exploration project located in the Carajás, Pará State, Brazil. The Luanga Project benefits from extensive work completed by the international Brazilian mining company, VALE SA, in the late 1990s and early 2000s, including geochemical surveys, geophysical surveys, and 252 diamond drill holes (approximately 50,353m). VALE SA drilled along an approximate sevenkilometre strike of the Luanga Project deposit’s mineralized envelope with wide spaced (between 100 to 200m) drilling. This drilling formed the basis of the “Historical Estimate” of mineral resources for the Luanga Project, which was prepared internally in 2017 by VALE SA and reported in Mansur et al, 2020 as:

142Mt @ 1.24 g/t 3E (Pd + Pt + Au) + 0.11% Ni using a cut-off grade of 0.5 g/t PGE + Au

2

(see “ Historic Mineral Resource ” in Schedule “A” to this Prospectus and “ Risk Factors ”)

Bravo cautions that a qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the Historical Estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves under NI 43-101, and Bravo is not treating the Historical Estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. There can be no certainty, following further evaluation and/or exploration work, that the Historical Estimate can be upgraded or verified as mineral resources or mineral reserves in accordance with NI 43-101. Further, the assays values used to calculate the Nickel content in the Historical Estimate are total Nickel, and thus contain both sulphide Nickel (recoverable) and silicate Nickel (unrecoverable). It is unknown to Bravo whether or not the nickel content in the Historic Estimate has been modified to account for this.

VALE SA also completed first pass (or fatal flaw) metallurgical testwork. This testwork is early stage, however it indicates that a potentially “saleable” palladium, platinum, gold, +/- rhodium concentrate could be produced.

The Luanga Project’s future economic hurdles and environmental impact will be reduced as it benefits from: extensive historic work completed by VALE SA; proximity to the major mining centre of the Carajás (the town of Parauapebas) with abundant skilled labour, equipment suppliers and services; good access with two national airports within a two-hour drive; paved highway and un-paved dual lane roads and abundant local grid power (predominantly low CO2 emitting hydro power).

Land status is simplified as the Luanga Project sits on privately owned farmland with no communities (local or indigenous) residing within the property boundaries. There are no significant rivers transecting the Luanga Project area and as it is an anthropized area with no special protection requirements, any future permitting processes may be streamlined. Further, Brazil has recently implemented a Strategic Minerals Policy aimed at fast tracking permitting for strategic minerals, including PGEs and nickel.

The Luanga Project could also benefit from the tax incentive that can be granted by SUDAM (Superintendência do Desenvolvimento da Amazônia) whereby BPGM Mineração could receive a 75% reduction in the corporate income tax rate of 25% for a 10-year period from the year in which the Appraisal Certificate from SUDAM is issued. BPGM Mineração must submit an application in order to be considered for and to potentially receive the tax incentive grant from SUDAM.

Organic Growth Potential

The extensive historic work completed by VALE SA provides a platform for lower risk organic growth opportunities for Bravo. The Company’s proposed Phase 1 Work Program (as defined herein) will be focused on a 25,500m infill and step out drill program to follow up on historic high-grade intersections (see table below) to determine the limits of mineralization and produce a NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate. In addition, the Company will undertake metallurgical studies and re-assay the available VALE SA historic core.

Metal Exposure – Part of the De-Carbonization Solution

The Luanga Project’s metal mix includes a diverse array of commodities that are key contributors to current and future global de-carbonization efforts.

Palladium, platinum and rhodium are versatile and rare metals that are predominantly used to remove harmful emissions from exhausts, which is becoming increasingly important as automakers strive to meet tightening environmental standards. Future growth opportunities include the hydrogen value chain and the production of fuel cells as platinum is increasingly used in hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.

Importantly, the Luanga Project may represent a future, lower risk, source of palladium, platinum and rhodium as ~79% of the 2021 global palladium supply, 85% of the 2021 global platinum supply and 91% of the 2021 global rhodium supply were sourced from Russia and South Africa with their attendant geopolitical risks.[1] There is a paucity of new PGE discoveries and incentive pricing is required to bring on new and “safe” production.

there has been a paucity of new nickel sulphide discoveries, creating a material deficit in Class 1 sulphide nickel supply, a key component in the production of high-grade nickel batteries.[3]

Proven Management and Board Expertise

Bravo has built a fit-for-purpose management team and board, with a particular focus on ensuring Brazilian and/or PGE experience. All of Bravo’s officers, employees and consultants are either Brazilian, based in Brazil and/or have extensive Brazilian experience. See “ General Development and Business of the Company – Foreign Operations – Management Experience in Brazil ”.

Bravo’s management team and board have a successful track record across all stages of the exploration and mining development cycle globally, with extensive experience in Brazil. The Company’s leadership team also has material experience with mergers and acquisitions and has been involved, as either executives or directors, in the sale of numerous companies with PGE assets and/or assets in Brazil. These include the sale of ASX-listed Avanco Resources Ltd (“ Avanco ”) for a premium of ~120% to ASX-listed Oz Minerals Ltd in 2018; the sale of ASX-listed Beadell Resources Ltd. for a premium of ~69% to TSX-listed Great Panther Mining Ltd. in 2019; the sale of TSX-listed Rio Verde Minerals Development Corp. to B&A Mineração S.A. in 2013; and the sale of TSX-listed AfriOre Ltd., with its Aakanani PGE project, to LSE-listed Lonmin PLC in 2007. See “ Directors and Executive Officers – Director and Executive Officer Biographies ”.

Environmental, Social and Governance Attributes

Bravo benefits from strong environmental, social and governance (“ ESG ”) attributes due to the location and nature of the Luanga Project combined with the composition and expertise of the board and management team.

Environmental

The Luanga Project’s environmental footprint benefits from Luanga’s location as it sits on already disturbed and deforested land used for cattle grazing; has high annual rainfall, but no significant rivers; has excellent, existing access (no major road building required); and would benefit from abundant local grid power that is predominantly from renewable hydropower sources.

Bravo has adopted the Environmental Policy, which represents a commitment to maintain sound environmental practices in all of its activities and to continuously improve the efficient use of resources, processes and materials and reduce and mitigate impacts, progressively rehabilitate and enhance natural ecosystems (see “ General Development and Business of the Company – Environmental, Social and Governance Policies ”). For Bravo to succeed in fulfilling this policy, all employees are responsible for incorporating actions necessary to take all reasonable care for the protection of the environment into their day-to-day activities.

Social

Bravo’s board and management team have strong community and social responsibility credentials both in Brazil and globally. Members of Bravo’s directors, officers and senior management team founded and worked at Avanco. Avanco discovered, permitted, financed, built and operated its flagship Antas copper-gold mine in the Carajás. Under the leadership of the then Avanco team, it developed positive relationships with local communities and municipal, state and federal regulators, including ensuring ~92% of its employees and consultants were local versus the 75% required by Pará State. Bravo’s social strategy has, and will continue to, benefit from the relationships developed by the former Avanco team and the Bravo team’s experience elsewhere. The Company remains focused on community engagement, and the preferential hiring of local, then state and then national Brazilian employees, consultants, contractors and equipment suppliers with the objective of replicating or exceeding the team’s prior successes in these areas of positive social impact. Further, Bravo plans to grant Options (as defined herein) concurrent with the closing of the Offering to its directors, officers, employees and consultants, providing local employees with the opportunity to share in any share price appreciation that may result from

3 https://www.iea.org.

progress made by the Company and that would be otherwise unobtainable to them and could materially benefit locals in a country that has one of the widest wealth distribution gaps in the world. Bravo’s commitment to local hiring and ensuring the supply chain is Brazilian-focused will have a positive impact on its environmental footprint with reduced transportation impacts.

Governance

Bravo’s aim is to exceed minimum corporate governance requirements. Four of the Company’s five directors are independent and the three committees (the Audit & Risk Committee, ESG Committee and Compensation Committee) are all chaired and membered by independent directors. Bravo’s independent directors also do not have material business relationships with each other or with management. The Company has ensured that all directors have diverse mining industry experience. To attain its high expectations for governance, Bravo has implemented a robust Code of Conduct that is supported by a set of polices including ones covering environment; social standards; health and safety; anti-bribery and anticorruption; diversity and inclusion; insider trading; and whistleblower protection. See “ Corporate Governance Disclosure – Ethical Business Conduct ”.

Insider Share Ownership

Bravo has considerable insider share ownership with the directors, officers, employees and consultants owning ~79% of the Company before completion of the Offering. See also “ Directors and Executive Officers ” and “ Escrowed Securities and Securities Subject to Contractual Restriction on Transfer ”.

Business Objectives

GENERAL DEVELOPMENT AND BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY

Overview and History of BPGM Mineração and the Company

BPGM Mineração was incorporated on May 19, 2020, under the laws of Brazil, in the context of negotiations with VALE SA to acquire the Luanga Project. BPGM Mineração acquired its interest in the Luanga Project from VALE SA in an arm’s length transaction pursuant to an option agreement dated October 13, 2020 (the “ Option Agreement ”). Under the Option Agreement, VALE SA granted BPGM Mineração an exclusive option to acquire the Luanga Project for a period of two years beginning on November 12, 2020, in consideration for the payment of an aggregate of US$1.3 million to VALE SA in three annual installments and the grant to VALE SA of a 1.0% NSR royalty on the Luanga Project, to be paid quarterly. BPGM Mineração exercised the option on January 27, 2021 and made the first installment payment of US$300,000 on November 12, 2021. The second installment payment in the amount of US$500,000 is due November 12, 2022 and the third installment payment in the amount of US$500,000 is due November 12, 2023, for an aggregate of US$1,000,000 remaining due to VALE SA under the Option Agreement (the “ Mineral Rights Payments ”). Ownership of 100% of the Luanga Project has been transferred to BPGM Mineração and is not subject to payment of the Mineral Rights Payments. In the event that the Mineral Rights Payments (or any portion thereof) are not paid upon such payment(s) becoming due and payable, VALE SA may commence action to enforce the payment of same or to transfer title back to VALE SA.

12

Pursuant to an agreement dated March 31, 1997 between VALE SA and BNDES, BNDES was granted a royalty over certain mining rights, including those comprising the Luanga Project. On February 18, 2021, VALE SA and BPGM Mineração provided notice to BNDES of a request to transfer the interest of VALE SA in the Luanga Project to BPGM Mineração, and the transfer was subsequently approved by ANM on November 29, 2021. BPGM Mineração has entered into a royalty agreement with BNDES dated November 1, 2021, pursuant to which BPGM Mineração granted BNDES a 2.0% royalty on the net operating revenue generated by the production of platinum concentrate on the Luanga Project.

The Company was incorporated on January 1, 2022 under the BCBCA for the purposes of acquiring the Luanga Project indirectly through the acquisition of BPGM Mineração, which acquisition was completed on February 17, 2022.

The Company is a mineral exploration company focused on the exploration and development of the Luanga Project, a PGE, gold and nickel project located in the Carajás, Pará State, Brazil, that is comprised of a 7,810 hectares mining exploration licence. The Luanga Project is the Company’s only property. The Company holds its interest in the Luanga Project through its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, BPGM Mineração. BPGM Mineração holds 100% right, title and interest in the Luanga Project, subject to royalty interests held by VALE SA, a major Brazilian mining company and the original owner of the Luanga Project, and BNDES, the Brazilian government business development bank.

On January 26, 2022, the Company completed a non-brokered private placement of 10,000,000 Common Shares at a price of US$0.05 per Common Share for gross aggregate proceeds of US$500,000 (the “ First Private Placement ”).

On February 9, 2022, the Company and BPGM Holding entered into a share exchange agreement (the “ Share Exchange Agreement ”) with RD Consulting Ltd. and Harpya Ltd. (together, the “ Vendors ”), two companies controlled by Luis Maurício F. Azevedo, Executive Chairman, CEO and a director of the Company, pursuant to which the Company purchased 100% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of BPGM Holding in exchange for the issuance of 52,000,000 Common Shares at a deemed price of US$0.05 per Common Share to the Vendors on February 16, 2022. This transaction is considered a related party transaction as it involves the Executive Chairman, CEO and a director of the Company. The percentage of ownership of the Company’s shareholders in the combined company was approximately 16% immediately after the issuance of the 52,000,000 Common Shares to the Vendors (see Schedule “B” – Audited financial statements of the Company for the periods ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, and for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 ).

In February and April of 2022, the Company completed, in two tranches, a non-brokered private placement of Common Shares and issued an aggregate of 16,000,000 Common Shares at a price of US$0.50 per Common Share for gross aggregate proceeds of US$8,000,000 (the “ Second Private Placement ”). On February 17, 2022, the Company completed the first tranche of the Second Private Placement and issued 10,000,000 Common Shares for gross aggregate proceeds of US$5,000,000, and on April 26, 2022, the Company completed the second tranche of the Second Private Placement and issued 6,000,000 Common Shares to a single subscriber at a price of US$0.50 per Common Share for gross aggregate proceeds of US$3,000,000. In connection with the second tranche of the Second Private Placement, the Company granted the subscriber an anti-dilution right (the “ Anti-Dilution Right ”), allowing the subscriber to maintain its ownership percentage in the Common Shares by participating in future offerings of Common Shares on the same terms and at the same price as the Common Shares are offered to other investors in such an offering. The Anti-Dilution Right will terminate on the earlier of: (i) the date the holder of the Anti-Dilution Right ceases to hold any Common Shares; and (ii) the closing of the Offering.

The Company intends to complete the Phase 1 Work Program and subsequently, depending on the results of the Phase 1 Work Program and sufficient funds being available, complete the Phase 2 Work Program on the Luanga Project as recommended by the Technical Report. The Phase 1 Work Program consists primarily of validation of previous data, mineral resource definition and estimation, exploratory drilling, metallurgical studies and preparation of an updated technical report, and is estimated to cost US$16.15 million. See “ Use of Proceeds and Available Funds ” and “ The Luanga Project ”. The Phase 2 Work Program consists primarily of mineral resource definition and estimation, exploratory drilling, metallurgical studies and preparation of an updated technical report, and is estimated to cost US$14.0 million. See “ The Luanga Project ”.

Acquisition of BPGM Holding and the Luanga Project

Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of BPGM Holding, a company formed under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, from the Vendors. As a result of the transaction, BPGM Holding became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. BPGM Holding indirectly owns, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries BPGM Brasil and BPGM Mineração, all of the right, title and interest in and to the mineral rights for the Luanga Project.

The Company acquired BPGM Holding on February 16, 2022, by issuing to the Vendors an aggregate of 52,000,000 Common Shares (representing aggregate consideration of US$2,600,000 at a deemed price per Common Share of US$0.05). Neither the Company nor BPGM Holding obtained a valuation opinion to support the consideration paid by the Company for the ordinary shares of BPGM Holding. As a result of the acquisition of BPGM Holding, the Company indirectly holds all of the right, title and interest in and to the mineral rights for the Luanga Project.

The Vendors are controlled by Luis Maurício F. Azevedo, who is considered an “informed person” (as defined in National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations ) by virtue of his position as Executive Chairman, CEO and a director of the Company and the acquisition of the Luanga Project under the Share Exchange Agreement is considered a related party transaction (see Schedule “B” – Audited financial statements of the Company for the periods ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, and for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 ).

The audited financial statements of BPGM Mineração as at December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are attached to this Prospectus as Schedule “D” and the unaudited financial statements BPGM Mineração as at March 31, 2022 are attached to this Prospectus as Schedule “F”.

PGE Mining Industry[4]

PGE Summary

Platinum Group Elements (PGEs) are some of the rarest mineral commodities in the earth’s crust. They include palladium (Pd), platinum (Pt), rhodium (Rh) and the minor PGEs iridium, and osmium. They generally occur together and can be closely associated with nickel and copper. PGEs predominantly occur in two deposit types, including where PGE mineralization is localized in large, layered mafic/ultramafic igneous intrusions (e.g., Bushveld, South Africa; Great Dyke, Zimbabwe and Stillwater, United States). The other main deposit type is where PGEs are associated with massive and disseminated nickel-copper ores (e.g., Norilsk, Russia and the Sudbury Basin, Canada). PGEs can occur as sulphides, arsenides, tellurides and in solid solution as natural alloys or within other sulphide minerals.

PGE Supply Background

Palladium, platinum and rhodium supply is dominated by South Africa and Russia. Primary supply has been relatively stable from 2017, although supply was negatively impacted in 2020 due to country wide power constraints impacting South African PGE processing plants, temporary closures at two of Nornickel Group’s mines and North American production declines due to strike activity and operational issues. Primary supply recovered to pre-2020 levels in 2021, but 2022 primary supply remains uncertain due to increased Russian security and political risk related to the war in Ukraine and sanctions

4 This section was prepared using information derived from “ PGM Demand Drivers Prepare for Real Transition ” published by BMO Capital Markets on February 24, 2022, “ PGM Market Report ” published by Johnson Matthey, May 2022 and “ Provision of PGM Market Intelligence and Long-Term Metal Price Forecasts ” published by SFA Oxford.

against Russia. Near and medium term palladium supply is particularly uncertain as 40% of primary supply comes from Russia.

Secondary supply in the form of recycling contributes a material portion of total palladium, platinum and rhodium supply and has remained a relatively stable supply source from 2017. Recycling supply was approximately 33% of total palladium and rhodium supply and 21% of total platinum supply in 2021.

Importantly, the Luanga Project may represent a future, lower risk, source of palladium, platinum and rhodium as ~79% of the 2021 global palladium supply, 85% of the 2021 global platinum supply and 91% of the 2021 global rhodium supply was sourced from Russia and South Africa with their attendant geopolitical risks. There is a paucity of new PGE discoveries and incentive pricing is required to bring on new and “safe” production.

PGE Demand Background

Palladium, platinum and rhodium prices have all increased over the last five years, although palladium and rhodium have had the most material increases up 162% and 1,576%, respectively. This has been due to increased demand for palladium and rhodium combined with a paucity of new supply and increased supply side risk from Russia and South Africa. Rhodium’s ascendance to an all-time high US$30,000/oz in March 2021 was due to a severe liquidity squeeze.

Palladium, platinum and rhodium’s physical and catalytic properties allow them to have a diverse range of uses in industrial and consumer applications, and for investment. The dominant use of palladium, platinum and rhodium is currently in catalytic converters used to control emissions from gasoline and diesel internal combustion engines (ICEs) in passenger and light-duty commercial vehicles. Demand for these metals has remained relatively stable, except for 2020 when supply was constrained.

Palladium Demand Background

Palladium demand is most exposed to the ICE automotive sector with ~83% of total demand. Stricter global ICE vehicle emission standards have caused an increased demand, particularly in Europe with the implementation of Euro 6d, resulting in increased PGM loadings. The same has occurred in the United States due to US Federal Tier 3 legislation where the average palladium content of an ICE vehicle increased. Palladium demand has been slightly lower in “developed” countries due to increased production of electric vehicles, however this has been more than offset by the demand for ICE vehicles in less “developed” countries where light vehicle production increased by 9% in 2021.

Investment demand, in the form of palladium ETFs, can be a swing factor in demand for palladium. However, demand has decreased from ~3 million ounces to less than 600,000 ounces from 2015 to the start of 2021. There has been a muted investor response to the two recent threats to Russian supplies in the last 18 months – the temporary closure of two large Nornickel Group’s mines in Russia and the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Platinum Demand Background

Platinum demand is dominated by the ICE automotive and jewellery sectors at 35% and 22%, respectively. Total demand (excluding investment demand) has declined slightly from 2017, largely due to palladium substitution in the automotive and jewellery sectors. This has been partly offset by increased industrial demand, which set a new record of almost three million ounces in 2021, with the glass industry comprising approximately one-third of the total. Relatively price insensitive chemical demand has also increased. Chinese industrial demand increased approximately four-fold between 2011 to 2021 due to state industrial policy where China has heavily invested in expanding domestic capacity for key industrial products.

Platinum automotive demand rebounded in 2021 from a twenty year low in 2020 with Chinese and North American markets accelerating the use of platinum in gasoline catalysts. Platinum use in “pollution control” includes PGM use in emissions control in non-automotive applications. Stricter emissions regulations across the globe have resulted in catalysts being fitted to all non-road mobile machinery with internal combustion engines. This demand source has begun to increase, particularly ahead of new China IV regulations – scheduled to be enforced from December 2022.

Platinum demand in stationary fuel cells has also increased with installation of power generation large fuel cell systems, particularly in South Korea. This growth is expected to continue as the South Korean Government announced a Hydrogen Portfolio Standard in 2020 for full implementation in 2020. This is aimed at accelerating the hydrogen economy, and while numerous fuel cell technologies will be used platinum-containing technologies are taking a material share of the market.

Like palladium, platinum investment demand can be a swing factor with investment demand adding approximately two million ounces to platinum holdings from 2019 to 2020 due to safe haven demand and supply concerns due to electricity shortages in South Africa. A longer-term value thesis has also driven investor demand based on the premise that near term platinum demand will increase due to expanded use in gasoline autocatalysts and longer-term demand should expand as the hydrogen economy grows in market share.

Rhodium Demand Background

Rhodium demand is usually relatively price inelastic, partly due to its history of extreme price movements combined with the lack of economic or technically viable substitution alternatives. Demand is dominated by the autocatalyst sector where rhodium is required for nitrous oxide (NOx) emissions after-treatment. While many automakers have aimed to reduce their rhodium consumption over recent years there has been a minimal impact on total demand as all gasoline after-treatment systems use small amounts of rhodium. This is particularly relevant to rhodium demand as most counties have tightened emissions regulation, resulting in reduced NOx limits. This has increased global rhodium loadings by over 40% since 2016. Rhodium loadings increased in Europe and North American due to enforcement of Euro 6d legislations and phasing in of Tier 3 US Federal regulations. Most automakers have focused on meeting these stricter emissions limits versus thrifting. Remaining rhodium demand is mainly from the chemical and glass sectors.

PGE Market Outlook

The PGE supply and demand outlook remains difficult to predict. Supply side uncertainties are due to Russia and South Africa controlling most of the global PGE primary supply. The ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict will continue to impact palladium supply uncertainty as Russia supplies approximately 40% of the Pd market. Russia’s largest PGE producer, Nornickel Group, has not yet been subjected to sanctions relating to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and continues to ship metal (despite logistical challenges). However, Russian refineries have been removed from the London Platinum and Palladium Market (LPPM) “Good Delivery” list on April 8, 2022, which will affect deliveries of metal to western customers going forward.

South Africa supplied 74% and 85% of global primary platinum and rhodium supply in 2021. Any supply disruptions relating to grid power constraints (impacting processing plants) and production stoppages related to potential industrial action resulting from wage negotiations at South African mines will materially impact primary supply of PGEs.

A key differentiator of PGE supply is the absence of Chinese domestic mine output versus other mined commodities. Unlike many commodities, primary PGE supply has no exposure to China.

PGE demand has traditionally been driven by the automotive sector relating to emissions control for ICE vehicles. The increased share of electric light vehicles has the potential to offset primary automotive demand longer term. Notably developing countries have been relying and will continue to rely on ICE vehicles due to issues relating to building out infrastructure for electric light vehicles. Emissions regulations are tightening across the globe resulting in increased demand per unit of ICE vehicle production. Additionally, demand growth is expected to continue in non-automotive applications with increased “pollution control” regulations and non-road machinery with ICEs requiring fitting of catalysts to reduce emissions.

Expansion of the hydrogen economy has the biggest potential to positively impact PGE demand and government pledges to bolster green hydrogen capacity are accelerating, for example recent moves by the Government of South Korea. This will benefit platinum demand due to the use of polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolyzers that contain platinum. These have the advantage of being able to better adapt to the intermittence power supply from renewables. Fuel cell vehicles may also positively impact demand and become a meaningful share of the global vehicle mix.

Years of palladium market deficits have pushed palladium prices higher than platinum, resulting in calls for substitution in ICE vehicle autocatalysts. However, the technical challenges and costs associated with adjusting the current metal mix is unlikely to result in meaningful substitution in the longer term (“PGM Demand Drivers Prepare for Real Transition” published by BMO Feb 24, 2022).

25

The recycling industry plays an important role in contributing to supply but faces some limitations as most recycling plants are reportedly producing at full capacity. The volatility of PGE prices has also hindered new capacity investment.

PGE supply and demand outlook is therefore uncertain as conflicting forces play against each other. Supply will continue to be dominated by Russia (especially Pd) and South Africa (especially Pt) for the foreseeable future and interruptions related to sanctions (against Russia) and power reliability and other challenges in South Africa could cause significant supply disruptions. Demand will continue to be driven by demand for auto-catalysts for ICEs for the next serval years and the pace of transition to EVs will drive the demand-side of the equation. However, the rise of the hydrogen economy and, potentially, fuel cells could lead to a significant new source of demand.

Nickel Mining Industry[5]

Most global nickel production is sourced from magmatic sulphide and lateritic nickel deposits. Nickel is mined in approximately 20 countries and across all continents. Approximately 2.5 million tonnes of primary nickel are produced and consumed each year, based on 2020 figures. Nickel is also smelted and refined in approximately 25 countries.

Primary nickel is produced and used in the form of ferro-nickel, nickel oxides and other chemicals. Nickel is also recycled in many of its applications, and this is a material source of supply.

Nickel’s key characteristics include a high melting point, relatively low thermal and electrical conductivities, high resistance to corrosion and oxidation, excellent strength and toughness at elevated temperatures and the ability to readily alloy with other metals. In 2020, more than 70% of primary nickel was used in stainless steel production and approximately 10% was used in other steel and non-ferrous (including “super”) alloys. Over 6% was used in batteries with the remainder in other applications.

Nickel demand has increased over time and is correlated with economic development. Global nickel demand increased ~112% from 2000 to 2020. This was mostly driven by Chinese demand, which accounts for ~82% of global demand.

26

The last 10 years have been characterized by imbalances within the primary nickel market, with oversupply being driven by the increased contribution of swing production from nickel pig iron. Nickel was in deficit from 2016 to 2019, demonstrating the industry’s inelastic response to demand side and upward price pressure.

Nickel’s specific properties will play a key role in global de-carbonization, particularly in the build-out of electric vehicles and energy storage applications. Total nickel demand is forecast to grow by ~167% by 2040, with electric vehicle driven nickel demand forecast to increase ~41x by 2040. The percentage of total nickel demand used in “clean technologies” is also forecast to grow from 8% in 2020 to 61% in 2040. Wood Mackenzie forecasts a nickel deficit by 2025 due to the paucity of new discoveries, creating material deficit in Class 1 nickel supply, which is key for production of high nickel batteries.

Specialized Skills and Knowledge

All aspects of the Company’s business require specialized skills and knowledge and the nature of its business requires technical expertise. Such skills and knowledge include permitting, geology, drilling, metallurgy, logistical planning, engineering and implementation of exploration programs, as well as legal compliance, environmental monitoring and compliance, finance, public reporting and accounting. The Luanga Project is located in Pará State, Brazil. Several members of the management of the Company are resident in Brazil, fluent in Portuguese and have extensive experience conducting business in Brazil. The Company also engages local consultants and employees for operations on the Luanga Project. The Company believes it has the necessary skilled employees and consultants to carry on its business as conducted and believes it will continue to be able to retain such employees and consultants.

Competitive Conditions

The Company competes with other exploration companies for the acquisition of mineral claims and other mineral interests, as well as for the recruitment and retention of qualified consultants. There is significant competition for the limited number of acquisition opportunities and, as a result, the Company may be unable to acquire precious and base metal mineral exploration properties in the future on terms it considers acceptable for all its stakeholders. Competition is also high for the recruitment of experienced and qualified consultants and personnel. See “ Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Company’s Business – Competition ”.

Government Regulation

Mining operations and exploration activities are subject to various laws and regulations which govern prospecting, exploration, development, mining, production, exports, taxes, labour standards, occupational health and safety, waste disposal, protection of the environment, mine safety, hazardous substances and other matters. See also “ Foreign Operations ”.

Environmental Regulation

All phases of the Company’s operations are subject to environmental regulation in the jurisdiction in which it operates. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner which requires increasingly strict standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and a heightened degree of responsibility for corporations and their officers, directors and employees. There is no assurance that future changes in environmental regulation, if any, will not adversely affect the Company’s operations, including its capital expenditures, future earnings and competitive position. See also “ Foreign Operations ”.

Employees

As of the date of this Prospectus, the Company has 8 officers and executives retained under consulting agreements, 16 direct employees, 7 full-time consultants providing technical services and 34 part-time consultants, the substantial majority of whom work for FFA Legal, a company that provides a variety of management services to the Company. The Company also has four non-executive directors.

28

Foreign Operations

The Company’s only material property, the Luanga Project, is located in Pará, Brazil, so the Company is entirely dependent on its foreign operations for the exploration and development of the Luanga Project.

Brazil is a mining-friendly jurisdiction with a long history of mining and a skilled labour force. Brazil is a member of the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency and was ranked among the top 10 most attractive countries in Latin America for mining investment by the Fraser Institute Annual Survey of Mining Companies 2021. Approximately 75% of the Company’s operating costs are denominated in Brazilian Reais. As at the date of this Prospectus, the Company has not hedged its exposure to Brazilian Real/U.S. dollar exchange rate fluctuations, or any other exchange rate fluctuations applicable to its business, and is therefore exposed to currency fluctuation risks. See “ Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Company’s Business – Fluctuations in Currency Exchange Rates ”. The Company’s operations are subject to Brazilian regulations pertaining to environmental protection, the use and development of mineral properties and the acquisition or use of rural properties by foreign investors or Brazilian companies under foreign control and various other Brazilian regulatory frameworks. See “ Regulations ” below.

Corporate Structure Controls

The risks of the corporate structure of the Company and its subsidiaries are risks that are typical and inherent for issuers who have material assets and property interests held indirectly through foreign subsidiaries and located in foreign jurisdictions. As a result, the Company’s business and operations are exposed to various levels of political, economic and other risks and uncertainties associated with operating in a foreign jurisdiction such as difference in laws, business cultures and practices, banking systems and internal control over financial reporting. For a description of risks associated with the Company’s operations in Brazil, please see “ Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Company’s Business ”.

Such risks are mitigated by the use of local experts (legal, accounting, tax and directors), by maintaining local bank accounts with “as needed cash balances” with accredited banking institutions and exercising controls over the use of cash, performing regular reviews of the consolidated books and records at the Company’s head office and frequent personal inspection and visits to the offices and project location of the foreign subsidiaries by the Company’s key management on a regular basis.

Management Experience in Brazil

All of the Company’s officers have experience conducting business in markets across Brazil.

In particular, Luis Maurício F. Azevedo, the Executive Chairman, CEO and a director of the Company, was a Founder of FFA Legal Ltda, a law firm located in Rio de Janeiro, which was established to focus on assisting natural resource companies, including environmental licensing support, management of land and mineral rights, accounting, financial reporting, HR and other administrative activities. He has spent his entire career in Brazil and began his career working for ASX-listed Western Mining Corp. and TSX-listed Barrick Gold Corp. He has been a Founder, Executive and NonExecutive Director of numerous private and public exploration, development and mining companies across the commodity complex in Brazil including ASX-listed Avanco Resources Ltd (sold to ASX-listed OZ Minerals Ltd in 2018), TSX-listed Rio Verde Minerals Development Corp. (sold to B&A Mineração S.A.in 2013) and TSX-listed Talon Metals Corp. He is currently a Director of TSX/LSE-listed Serabi Gold PLC, AIM-listed Harvest Minerals Ltd and AIM-listed Jangada Mines PLC, which all have their flagship assets in Brazil. Simon Mottram, the President of the Company, resides in Brazil and is fluent in Portuguese. He was the Executive Director Exploration for ASX-listed Avanco Resources Ltd with its flagship Antas mine in Pará from 2011 to 2018, prior to its sale to OZ Minerals Ltd in 2018. The Company’s CFO, Manoel Cerqueira, formerly served as CFO of TSXV-listed companies Rio Verde Minerals Development Corp. and Amazon Mining Holding (now, Verde AgriTech PLC) and TSX-listed Talon Metals Corp.; VP Finance, Brazil for TSX/NYSE-listed Kinross Gold Corp.; CFO Brazil for TVXNA (TVX Normandy Americas) where he also served as a member of the three TVXNA Joint Venture Boards, with two in Brazil and one in Chile. He was also CFO for the Brazilian operations of TSX-listed intermediate gold producer Eldorado Gold Corporation, ASX-listed Western Mining Corp. and BP Mining in Brazil. He started his career at Arthur Andersen & Co. Independent Auditors. The Company’s EVP Corporate Development, Alex Penha, is a Brazilian and Canadian National who resides in Toronto, Canada. His Brazilian experience includes Founder,

29

Director and EVP Corporate Development of privately held 4B Mining Corp., a Brazilian iron ore producer and manganese project developer. He is also an Independent Director for AIM-listed Brazilian organic fertilizer producer, Harvest Minerals Ltd. See “ Directors and Executive Officers – Director and Executive Officer Biographies ”.

Certain of the directors and officers reside in Brazil, while others visit on a regular basis in order to ensure effective control and management of the operations in conducting its business operations in accordance with local business culture and practices.

Business Language in Brazil

The business language in Brazil is Portuguese and English. Certain of the Company’s directors and officers are fluent in Portuguese and English. The primary language used in meetings of management and the Board is English. Material documents relating to the Company that are provided to the Board are in English. To the extent that any original documentation is in Portuguese, the respective directors, officers and consultants of the Company assist with any translation needs.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Company maintains internal control over financial reporting with respect to its Brazilian operations by taking various measures. Differences in banking systems and controls between Canada and Brazil are addressed by having controls over cash in both locations; particularly over access to cash, cash disbursements, appropriate authorization levels, and performing and reviewing bank reconciliations on a monthly and quarterly basis. Cash balances are provided weekly to the Company’s management in Brazil and Canada. The CFO of the Company reviews and approves the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries, including BPGM Mineração on a monthly basis.

The Company and its subsidiaries maintain various cash and investment accounts with Brazilian and Canadian banks and have extensive finance and treasury functions, based in Brazil, under the direction of Bravo’s CFO. Payments to Brazilian and Canadian creditors are reviewed and approved by the CFO of Bravo, who has the appropriate level of approval authority. All expenditures that are unbudgeted or outside the normal course of business are referred to the Company’s management in Brazil and Canada for approval and/or payment where appropriate.

The difference in cultures and practices between the two countries is addressed by employing competent staff and consultants in both countries who are familiar with the local laws, business culture and standard practices, have local language proficiency, are experienced in working in the respective jurisdictions and dealing with the respective government authorities, and have experience and knowledge of the local banking systems and treasury requirements. The flow of funds between Canada and Brazil functions as intended by appointing common directors and officers between the Company and its subsidiaries, involving the Company’s CFO (located in Brazil), involving key finance personnel in Brazil and closely monitoring the Brazilian finance department. The Company documents and assesses the design of internal controls over financial reporting on an annual basis. Furthermore, key controls for the accounts in scope are tested across the Company on an annual basis. This process is undertaken by the Company’s CFO.

Regulations and Use and Development of Mineral Properties

Brazilian Mining Legislation, Administration and Rights are governed by the Brazil Mining Code (Federal Law Decree No. 227/1967), which regulates exploration and development of mineral resources and mining projects in Brazil.

Mineral tenements in Brazil are generally comprised of Prospecting Licences, Exploration Licences and Mining Licences. These are granted subject to various conditions including an annual fee per hectare payment and reporting requirements. Each tenement is granted subject to standard conditions that regulate the holder’s activities and regulations that are designed to protect the environment.

The holder of a granted Prospecting Licence, Exploration Licence or Mining Licence is not required to spend a set annual amount per hectare in each tenement on exploration or mining activities. There is no statutory or other minimum expenditure

30

requirement in Brazil. However, annual rental payments are made to the Brazilian Mining National Agency (ANM) and the holder of an Exploration Licence must pay rates and taxes ranging, based on current exchange rate, from US$0.69 to US$1.03 per hectare to the Government.

A Prospecting Licence is granted for individuals who intend to perform artisanal mining activities. It entitles the holder, to the exclusion of all others, to explore for minerals in the area of the Licence, but not to conduct commercial mining. A Prospecting Licence may cover a maximum area of 50 hectares and remains in force for up to 5 years. The holder may apply for a renewal of the Prospecting Licence, which is subject to approval by ANM. The period of renewal may be up to a further 5 years. A Prospecting Licence is not required in respect of the Luanga Project since the Company does not intend to perform artisanal mining activities.

Exploration Licences are granted during the exploration phase and the federal department responsible for issuing Exploration Licences is the ANM. Exploration Licences are typically granted for 3 years and can be extended for an additional 3 years maximum, subject to ANM approval. An Exploration Licence allows the holder to explore for minerals in the granted concession, but not to conduct commercial mining.

Once the exploration phase is concluded, the holder must present an exploration technical report to ANM. Once the report is approved, the holder has a one-year deadline to apply for the Mining Licence. The Mining Licence allows the start of production and commercial mining activities.

The Luanga Project was granted an Exploration Licence in the past and has submitted an application for the Mining Licence, which is under analysis by the ANM for approval.

The first three years of the Luanga Project Exploration Licence expired on September 5, 1998, but the ANM only provided renewal of the Exploration Licence on April 12, 2005, due to its internal bureaucracy, renewing for an additional three years until April 12, 2008. On April 11, 2008, VALE SA presented a Final Exploration Report to the ANM, and, on April 19, 2013, VALE SA applied for a Mining Licence. The ANM continues to postpone the decision on the Luanga Project’s Mining Licence application and the Company expects this status to continue until such time as the Company submits a new study that demonstrates the technical and economic feasibility of the Luanga Project. The Exploration Licence remains valid while the Mining Licence application is pending as there is no pre-determined time frame and the Exploration Licence may remain valid for an indefinite period while such application is pending.

Bravo retained Linneu de Albuquerque Mello, Sociedade de Advogados (“ LAM ”), whose lawyers are qualified to carry out the practice of law in the Federative Republic of Brazil. According to a title opinion dated February 11, 2022 prepared by LAM (the “ Title Opinion ”), the Luanga Mineral Rights were valid and in good standing at that time.

Development of mining projects in Brazil are governed by three phases in the environmental licensing: Preliminary Licence (LP), Installation Licence (LI) and Operating Licence (LO). Issuance of these licences is governed by the Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (“ IBAMA ”), the State Environmental Agencies, which would be the Pará State Environmental Agency (“ SEMA ”) for the Luanga Project, or the Municipality Authorities.

  • Preliminary Licence (“ LP ”): Receipt of the LP requires the licensing agency to evaluate the location and overall design of the project, environmental impact, social/community impact and establish terms of reference for future development. The Luanga Project occurs on predominantly privately owned, cleared land and there are no indigenous communities within the property boundary or within a 10km radius, so there is no consultation requirement under the National Foundation of the Indian - Fundação Nacional do Índio, the federal agency that establishes and manages policies relating to indigenous communities.

  • Installation Licence (“ LI ”): Receipt of the LI allows earthworks and mine construction to start. Application for the LI must include layout of the mine, processing plant, tailings dam and all associated infrastructure. It also includes detail on mining methods, recovery methods, tailings dam design (and dam break study). The LI also expands and updates the environmental and social/community studies that were included in the LP terms of reference and conditions.

31

  • Operating Licence (“ LO ”): Receipt of the LO allows operating activities to start and is essentially a review of the operation to ensure it was constructed according to the detail provided in the LI.

If a mineral tenement is located on private land, then the holder must arrange or agree with the landowners to access the property, however in the absence of an agreement a company can request access in court and by depositing a compensation value that is established and estimated by a court expert.

Land status is simplified as the Luanga Project sits on privately owned farmland with no communities (local or indigenous) residing within the property boundaries. There are no significant rivers transecting the Luanga Project area and as it is an anthropized area with no special protection requirements, any future permitting processes may be streamlined. Further, Brazil has recently implemented a Strategic Minerals Policy aimed at fast tracking permitting for strategic minerals, including PGEs and nickel.

The Luanga Project will be subject to Brazilian Government royalties, termed CFEM ( Compensação Financeira pela Exploração de Recursos Minerais ). These royalties depend on the commodity and include a 1.5% NSR royalty on gold, a 2% NSR royalty on palladium, platinum and rhodium and a 2% NSR royalty on nickel. As the Luanga Project is located on private ground, the Company will also be subject to the Private Landowner Royalty, which is equal to 50% of the CFEM royalties.

The Luanga Project could also benefit from the tax incentive that can be granted by SUDAM (Superintendência do Desenvolvimento da Amazônia) whereby BPGM Mineração could receive a 75% reduction in the corporate income tax rate of 25% for a 10-year period from the year in which the Appraisal Certificate from SUDAM is issued. BPGM Mineração must submit an application in order to be considered for and to potentially receive the tax incentive grant from SUDAM.

Environmental Protection

No environmental liabilities have been identified within the Luanga Exploration Licence. The current land use at the Luanga Project is solely agricultural cattle grazing. There are no significant rivers running through the property. There are also no existing forests on the property, thus no deforestation is required.

The most significant activity to be completed by the Company in the next few years is relatively low impact drilling. Bravo will concurrently reclaim drill sites. It is expected that social or community impact will also be negligible since the nearest community is the village of Serra Pelada, which is approximately 8km away. There are no indigenous communities within 25km of Luanga.

The unpaved road to Serra Pelada crosses the Luanga Project in the northern half of the property. A low voltage power line parallels this road. Bravo does not expect to encounter major difficulties in moving the road and associated power line if the Luanga Project advances to a construction decision. The location of the road and power line will not impact planed exploration activities.

If the Luanga Project advances to a construction decision, the Company’s activities will be subject to various levels of federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment, including requirements for closure and reclamation of mining properties. These will be regulated under Brazil’s three stage licensing process (see above).

The Luanga Project’s future economic hurdles and environmental impact will be reduced as it benefits from: extensive historic work completed by VALE SA; proximity to the major mining centre of the Carajás (the town of Parauapebas) with abundant skilled labour, equipment suppliers and services; good access with two national airports within a two hour drive; paved highway and un-paved dual lane roads and abundant local grid power (predominantly low CO2 emitting hydro power).

Acquisition or Use of Rural Properties by Foreign Investors or Brazilian Companies Under Foreign Control

Non-resident individuals and non-domiciled foreign legal entities are subject to restrictions on the acquisition or lease of rural properties in Brazil. Limitations also apply to legal entities domiciled in Brazil and controlled by foreign investors,

32

such as the Company’s subsidiaries through which it operates in Brazil. Such limitations are set forth mainly in Law No. 5709/1971 and in Decree No. 74965/1974.

Until 2010, it was interpreted that limitations imposed on the acquisition or lease of rural property did not apply to Brazilian companies under foreign control. However, on August 23, 2010, a new opinion, Opinion CGU/AGU, issued by the General Counsel of the Federal Government Office (CGU/AGU No. 01/2008-RVJ), approved by the General Counsel to the Federal Government and by the Brazilian President, was published in the Official Gazette. Opinion CGU/AGU, based on the principle of Brazilian sovereignty, significantly changed the interpretation of the applicable laws at the time. Accordingly, Brazilian companies that have the majority of their capital stock owned by foreign individuals and legal entities domiciled abroad are deemed “foreign investors” for the purposes of application of the restrictions on the acquisition or lease of rural property in Brazil. The legality of Opinion CGU/AGU has been and is currently being challenged; however, prior challenges to the opinion have been unsuccessful.

Under current rules, a foreign investor or a Brazilian company under foreign control may only acquire or lease rural property in Brazil without breaching Opinion CGU/AGU if certain conditions are met, including approval by INCRA and by the Ministry of Agriculture (after consulting the relevant federal authorities) or by the Ministry of Industry and Trade (for industrial projects), and others, such as the following:

  • foreign entities may only acquire or lease rural properties designed for the implementation of agricultural activities, cattle raising, industrial or colonization projects that are encompassed by their corporate purposes, provided that such projects must be approved by the Ministry of Agriculture, after hearing the competent federal agency in charge of regional development in the relevant area; industrial projects shall be submitted to, and approved by, the Ministry of Industry and Trade;

  • the aggregate of the rural areas of property held by foreign legal entities may not exceed 25% of the total surface area of the municipality in which they are located, evidenced by a certificate issued by the Real Estate Registry Office; the acquisition of areas exceeding this limit is subject to prior approval of the President of Brazil;

  • foreign legal entities and/or individuals of the same nationality may not own, in each municipality, more than 40% of the limit set forth in the second bullet above (therefore, 10% of the total area of each municipality);

  • in the case of rural real estate ranging from three to 100 indefinite exploitation modules (the size of each is variable and defined for each region in Brazil), the approvals mentioned above are required, in addition to approval from the Brazilian Institute of Settlement and Land Reform – INCRA for land registration;

  • the acquisition of areas in excess of 100 indefinite exploitation modules will be subject to the prior approval by the Brazilian Congress, in addition to the other approvals mentioned above;

  • the acquisition must be formalized by means of a public deed of sale and purchase; and

  • the acquisition of rural properties located at the country’s border area (a strip of up to 150 km of length along the country’s terrestrial borders, which is deemed essential to the defense of Brazilian territory) is subject to the fulfillment of additional requirements, such as that the equity interest of such companies be majority Brazilian owned.

Any corporate changes, such as mergers or corporate reorganizations, must be carefully considered. Pursuant to the applicable legislation, any agreements regarding the lease and/or direct or indirect ownership of rural properties by foreign individuals or entities, as well as any agreements regarding corporate changes which might imply indirect acquisition or lease of rural properties by foreign individuals or entities, may be considered null and void.

33

Business Permits and Other Requirements

Requirements for a company carrying out business operations in Brazil through a subsidiary or controlled company include the following:

  • Brazilian subsidiaries and their foreign shareholders must be registered with the Central Bank of Brazil (the “ BACEN ”) and comply with regulations regarding foreign direct investment. In particular, all international transfers of funds or foreign direct investments related to Brazilian subsidiaries must be registered with BACEN. The Company’s subsidiaries and their respective shareholders have completed such registrations and are in compliance with such regulations.

  • Each Brazilian subsidiary must be registered with the boards of trade of the states in which such subsidiary is incorporated and has a branch office. A board of trade is a governmental authority responsible for the approval, registration, filing and publication of certain corporate information and functions as the Brazilian registry of commerce. BPGM Mineração is registered in the states of Rio de Janeiro and Pará.

  • Each Brazilian subsidiary’s foreign shareholders must appoint a legal representative, who is resident in Brazil, including to receive service of process and subpoenas. A power of attorney or equivalent document in respect of such appointment must be filed with the board of trade of the state in which a Brazilian subsidiary is incorporated. The document appointing such representative must be apostilled in jurisdictions in which this is possible or certificated by the Brazilian consulate in the foreign shareholder’s jurisdiction of residence or incorporation, where apostilling is not permitted, and translated into Portuguese by an official translator. In the case of BPGM Mineração, a Brazilian resident has been appointed to act as the legal representative on behalf of the Company.

  • Registration with the federal and state tax authorities. In the Company’s case, BPGM Mineração is registered in the State of Pará.

Environmental, Social and Governance Policies

The Company has adopted several policies and mandates concerning ethical business conduct and the health, safety and overall welfare of the people it employs and the environment. These policies include the Code of Conduct, the Board Mandate, the Audit & Risk Committee Mandate, the Compensation Committee Mandate, the Environmental, Social & Governance Committee Mandate (“ ESG Committee Mandate ”), the Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption Policy, the Disclosure and Confidentiality Policy, the Diversity & Inclusion Policy, the Environmental, Social & Governance Policy (“ ESG Policy ”), the Insider Trading Policy and the Whistleblower Policy. A summary of the ESG Policy and the Diversity & Inclusion Policy are discussed below. For more information regarding the other above-mentioned policies of the Company, please see “ Corporate Governance Disclosure – Ethical Business Conduct ”.

ESG Policy

The board of directors of the Company (the “ Board ”) has established an Environmental, Social & Governance Committee (the “ ESG Committee ”) in order to annually review and update, if applicable, the ESG Policy implemented by the Company. The ESG Committee consists of at least three members of the Board, all of whom must be non-management directors and independent (within the meaning of applicable securities laws). Members of the ESG Committee are appointed annually by the Board, to hold office until the next annual general meeting of the Company. Members of the ESG Committee may be removed by the Board at any time and the Board will have the power to fill casual vacancies in the committee. The Company has adopted the ESG Committee Mandate to define the duties, roles and responsibilities of the ESG Committee.

34

The ESG Policy establishes the Company’s commitment to certain core principles, including the following:

  • Employees are guided by the Company’s core principles in their everyday behaviour as it relates to their own ideals and values, or they would not be working with the Company.

  • The Company recognizes that responsible corporate behaviour with respect to ESG factors can generally have a positive influence on long-term corporate performance.

  • Disclosure is the key metric that allows stakeholders and other interested parties to better understand, evaluate and assess potential risk and return, including the potential impact of ESG factors on the Company’s performance.

  • The Company’s investment analysis should incorporate ESG factors to the extent that they affect risk and return.

  • The Company acknowledges the division of authority and responsibilities among the three parties that are core to corporate governance – shareholders, directors and managers.

  • Employees, consultants, contractors, suppliers, federal, state and local governments and the impacted communities have a vested interest in positive corporate conduct and long-term business performance.

These principles are supported and complimented by the following core values: safety, environmental responsibility, community involvement, sustainability, transparency, accountability and integrity and performance.

As part of the ESG Policy, the Company has also implemented a Health and Safety Policy to promote and encourage the health and safety of its employees, consultants and contractors by continually identifying, eliminating or controlling workplace hazards, with the goal of achieving zero lost time incidents. In addition, the Company has implemented an Environmental Policy to maintain sound environmental practices in all of its activities and to continuously improve the efficient use of resources, processes and materials.

Diversity & Inclusion Policy

The Company is committed to creating a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace where human rights are respected and enforced and has adopted a Diversity & Inclusion Policy to reflect these principles. The Company believes its ability to act in the best interests of all its stakeholders is achieved through a broad definition of diversity that encompasses not only the physical characteristics that make individuals different from each other but their cultural and socio-economic background, area of expertise and type of experience.

The Luanga Project is in Pará State, Brazil and the Company is committed to ensuring economic benefits flow into local communities in the form of direct employment, training and a commitment to working with local businesses. As a guest of Brazil, the Company is also committed to ensuring that its executive team, senior management and Board include Brazilian nationals.

The Company also acknowledges and believes that merit is an important consideration for Board and key leadership appointments, and employee advancement. In identifying suitable candidates for appointment to the Board, or in selecting and assessing candidates for executive positions, candidates will be considered on merit against objective criteria regarding experience, education, expertise and general and sector specific knowledge, and with due regard for the benefit of diversity and the need to widen participation.

The Company does not discriminate on the basis of age, ethnicity, indigenous origin or heritage, gender, disability, physical characteristics, beliefs, language, sexual orientation, education, nationality, social background and culture or other personal attributes.

35

RISK FACTORS

An investment in the Offered Shares should be considered highly speculative due to the nature of the Company’s business and the present stage of exploration. An investment in the Offered Shares should only be made by knowledgeable and sophisticated investors who are willing to risk and can afford the loss of their entire investment. Potential investors should consult with their professional advisors to assess an investment in the Company. In evaluating the Company and its business, investors should carefully consider, in addition to other information contained in this Prospectus, the risk factors below. These risk factors are not a definitive list of all risk factors associated with an investment in the Company or in connection with its operations.

The following are certain risk factors relating to the Company and its business which prospective investors should carefully consider before deciding whether to purchase Offered Shares. The following information is a summary only of certain risk factors and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, and must be read in conjunction with, the detailed information set out elsewhere in this Prospectus. These risks and uncertainties are not the only ones the Company is facing. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to the Company, or that the Company currently deems immaterial, may also impair operations. If any such risks actually occur, the business, financial condition, liquidity, prospects and results of operations of the Company could be materially adversely affected.

Risks Related to the Company’s Business

Exploration and Development

The Luanga Project is in the exploration stage and is without a known body of commercial ore and will require extensive expenditures during this exploration stage. See “ The Luanga Project ”. The Technical Report contains mineral resource estimates that are considered historical in nature and as such are based on data collected and reports prepared by previous operators. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating mineral reserves and mineral resources. The accuracy of any mineral reserve or mineral resource estimate is a function of the quantity and quality of available data and of the assumptions made and judgments used in engineering and geological interpretation.

Mineral exploration and development involve a high degree of risk which even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to mitigate. The vast majority of properties which are explored are not ultimately developed into producing mines. There is no assurance that the Company’s mineral exploration and development activities will result in any discoveries of commercial bodies of ore. The long-term profitability of the Company’s operations is in part directly related to the cost and success of the Company’s exploration programs, which may be affected by a number of factors.

Fluctuating Mineral Prices

The mining industry is heavily dependent upon the market price of the applicable metals or minerals being mined or explored for. There is no assurance that, even if commercial quantities of mineral resources are discovered, a profitable market will exist for their sale. There can be no assurance that mineral prices will be such that the Luanga Project can be mined at a profit if a mineral resource is defined. The prices of base and precious metals have experienced volatile and significant price movements over short periods of time, particularly in recent years, and are affected by numerous factors beyond the Company’s control. Factors beyond the control of the Company may also affect the marketability of minerals or concentrates produced, including quality issues, impurities, deleterious elements, government regulations, royalties, allowable production and regulations regarding the importing and exporting of minerals, the effect of certain of which cannot be accurately predicted.

The price of PGEs, gold and/or nickel will have a direct impact on the Company’s financial performance and the commercial viability of the Luanga Project. PGEs and nickel are industrial metals, and therefore their price is significantly affected by industrial demand. Demand and industrial consumption of PGEs and nickel may be negatively impacted by the volatility of the global economy, economic slowdowns (such as those caused by COVID-19 and government policies enacted to prevent the spread of the virus), inflation, supply chain disruptions, economic conditions in the main consuming countries, changes

36

in technology affecting demand for these metals, international economic and political trends, fluctuations in the U.S. dollar and other currencies, and changes in interest rates. In addition, Russia has historically been an important producing country of PGEs (particularly palladium) and nickel, and the ongoing military conflict between Ukraine and Russia and the economic sanctions imposed on Russia in connection therewith may cause increased volatility in the price of these metals.

Fluctuations in the prices of PGEs, gold and/or nickel may adversely affect the Company’s financial performance, prospects and results of operations. Further, if the market price of PGEs, gold and/or nickel falls or remains depressed, the Company may experience losses or asset write-downs and may curtail or suspend some or all of the Company’s exploration activities and any future development and mining activities.

Estimates of Mineral Deposits

There is no assurance given by the Company that any estimates of mineral deposits or resources will materialize. The mineral resource estimate in the Technical Report is historical in nature and there is no assurance that the historical tonnage and grade reported in the Technical Report as a “historic estimate” (as such term is defined in NI 43-101) will be achieved. The work necessary to verify the classification of these historic mineral resource estimates has not been completed and such historic mineral resource estimates therefore cannot be treated as NI 43-101 defined mineral resources verified by a qualified person. The historic mineral resource estimates should not be relied upon and there can be no assurance that any of such mineral resources, in whole or in part, will become economically viable. To the extent that any of such historical data is inaccurate or incomplete, the Company’s exploration plans may be adversely affected.

No assurance can be given that any identified mineralization will be developed into a coherent mineral deposit, or that such deposit will even qualify as a commercially viable mineral reserve that can be legally and economically exploited. Estimates regarding mineral deposits can also be affected by many factors such as permitting regulations and requirements, weather, environmental factors, unforeseen technical difficulties, unusual or unexpected geological formations and work interruptions. In addition, the grades and tonnages of any mineral reserve ultimately mined may differ from that indicated by drilling results and other exploration and development work. There can be no assurance that test work and results conducted and recovered in small-scale laboratory tests will be duplicated in large-scale tests under on-site conditions. Material changes in mineralized tonnages, grades, dilution and stripping ratios or recovery rates may affect the economic viability of mineral projects. The existence of mineralization or mineral deposits should not be interpreted as assurances of the future delineation of mineral reserves or the profitability of any future operations.

Dependent on the Success of the Luanga Project

The Luanga Project is the Company’s only mineral property, and its current business activities are focused on the exploration and development of the Luanga Project, which has no current mineral reserve or mineral resource estimate. Furthermore, there is no certainty that any portion of the historical mineral resource estimates attributable to the Luanga Project (as described in the Technical Report) will be proven and, if proven, will be economically viable or technically feasible to mine. The exploration and development of the Luanga Project will require the commitment of substantial financial resources for capital expenditures and operating expenses, which may increase in subsequent years as needed, and for consultants, personnel and equipment associated with additional exploration and development of such a property. As a result, the Company’s success will be dependent to a significant degree on the successful exploration and development of the Luanga Project and any adverse changes, results or developments in respect of the Luanga Project could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and prospects as a whole.

Substantial Capital Expenditures Required

The exploration, development and mining of PGEs, nickel and/or gold is capital intensive. Substantial expenditures are required to establish mineral reserves and mineral resources through drilling, to develop metallurgical processes to extract metal from the ore and, in the case of new properties, to develop the mining and processing facilities and infrastructure at any site chosen for mining. Large amounts of capital are required to build production facilities and the long-term viability of a PGEs, nickel and/or gold company is capital intensive with respect to exploration and production. The mining and extraction of PGEs in particular is a complex and expensive process. Actual capital costs may differ significantly from those

37

the Company has anticipated and there are no assurances that any future development activities will result in profitable mining operations. The capital costs required to take the Luanga Project into future commercial production may be significantly higher than anticipated. Decisions about the development of the Luanga Project will ultimately be based upon feasibility studies. Capital costs and other estimates contained in studies or estimates prepared by or for the Company may differ significantly from those anticipated by the Company’s current studies and estimates, and there can be no assurance that the Company’s actual capital costs will not be higher than currently anticipated. As a result of higher capital costs, production and economic returns may differ significantly from those the Company has anticipated.

Although substantial benefits may be derived from the discovery of a major mineral deposit, no assurance can be given that minerals will be discovered in sufficient quantities to justify commercial operations or that the funds required for development can be obtained on a timely basis, or at all. The discovery of a mineral deposit is dependent upon a number of factors. The commercial viability of a mineral deposit, if and when discovered, is also dependent upon a number of factors, some of which relate to particular attributes of the deposit, such as size, grade and proximity to infrastructure, and some of which are more general factors such as metal prices and government regulations, including environmental protection. Most of these factors are beyond the Company’s control. In addition, because of these risks, there is no certainty that the expenditures to be made by the Company on the exploration of the Luanga Project as described herein will result in the discovery of a commercially viable mineral reserve.

Management Experience and Dependence on Key Personnel and Employees

The Company’s success is currently largely dependent on the performance of the Company’s directors and officers. The Company’s management team has experience in the resource exploration business. The experience of these individuals is a factor which will contribute to the Company’s continued success and growth. The Company will initially be relying on the Company’s board members, as well as independent consultants, for certain aspects of the Company’s business. The amount of time and expertise expended on the Company’s affairs by each of the Company’s management team and the Company’s directors will vary according to the Company’s needs. The Company does not intend to acquire any key man insurance policies and there is, therefore, a risk that the death or departure of any member of management, the Board, or any key employee or consultant, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future. Investors who are not prepared to rely on the Company’s management team and Board should not invest in the Company’s securities.

Uncertainty of Additional Funding

With the net proceeds from the Offering and other available funds, the Company expects to have sufficient financial resources to undertake the Phase 1 Work Program on the Luanga Project, as recommended in the Technical Report. Upon the successful completion of this work, the Company may not have sufficient financial resources to complete further work, including the Phase 2 Work Program on the Luanga Project, as recommended in the Technical Report. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining the required financing(s) or that such financing(s) will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. Any future financing(s) may also be dilutive to the Company’s existing shareholders.

Environmental Risks and Other Regulatory Requirements

The Company’s current and future operations, including exploration and development activities and future commencement of production at the Luanga Project, require permits from various federal and local governmental authorities, and such operations are and will be governed by laws and regulations governing prospecting, development, mining, production, taxes, labour standards, occupational health, waste disposal, toxic substances, land use, environmental protection, mine safety and other matters. Certain permits require periodic renewal or review of the conditions. The Company cannot predict whether it will be able to obtain or renew such permits or whether material changes in the permit conditions will be imposed. The inability to obtain or renew permits, or the imposition of additional conditions, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to develop or operate the Luanga Project.

Environmental laws and regulations to which the Company is subject as it progresses from an exploration stage to an operation stage mandate additional concerns and requirements. Failure to comply with applicable environmental laws, regulations and permits can result in injunctive actions, damages and civil and criminal penalties. The laws and regulations

38

applicable to the Company’s activities may change frequently and it is not possible to predict the potential impact on the Company from any such future changes.

Environmental hazards may exist at the Luanga Project which are unknown to the Company at present and which have been caused by previous owners or operators. To the extent the Company is subject to environmental liabilities, the payment of any liabilities or the costs that may be incurred to remedy environmental impacts would reduce funds otherwise available for operations.

Fluctuations in Currency Exchange Rates

Fluctuations in the Canadian dollar, United States dollar and Brazilian real exchange rates may significantly impact the Company’s financial position and results. The Company currently pays for goods and services and pays salaries and consulting fees in a number of currencies, including the United States dollar, the Brazilian real and the Canadian dollar, and reports its financial results in United States dollars. The Company also raises money in United States dollars and Canadian dollars. Adverse fluctuations in these currencies relative to each other and relative to the currencies in which the Company incurs expenditures and reports its financial results could have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and the costs of the exploration and development activities carried out by the Company on the Luanga Project.

Title Matters

While the Company has reviewed title to mineral concessions comprising the Luanga Project and, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, each of such title is in good standing, there is no guarantee that title to such concessions will not be challenged or impugned. The Luanga Project may be subject to prior unregistered agreements of transfer, and title for lands comprising the Luanga Project may be affected by undetected defects.

Industry Regulation

The principal operations of the Company are currently conducted in Brazil and, as such, the operations of the Company are exposed to various levels of political, economic and other risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: extreme fluctuations in currency exchange rates; high rates of inflation; labour unrest; the risks of war or civil unrest; expropriation and nationalization; renegotiation or nullification of existing concessions, licences, permits and contracts; illegal mining; changes in taxation policies; restrictions on foreign exchange and repatriation; and changing political conditions, currency controls and governmental regulations that favour or require the awarding of contracts to local contractors or require foreign contractors to employ citizens of, or purchase supplies from, a particular jurisdiction.

Changes, if any, in mining or investment policies or shifts in political attitude in Brazil may adversely affect the operations or profitability of the Company. Operations may be affected in varying degrees by government regulations with respect to, but not limited to, restrictions on production, price controls, export controls, currency remittance, income taxes, expropriation of property, foreign investment, maintenance of claims, environmental legislation, land use, land claims of local people, water use and mine safety.

Failure to strictly comply with applicable laws, regulations and local practices relating to mineral right applications and tenure, could result in loss, reduction or expropriation of entitlements, or the imposition of additional local or foreign parties as joint venture partners with carried or other interests.

Government approvals and permits are currently, and may in the future be, required in connection with the Luanga Project. To the extent such approvals are required and not obtained, the Company may be restricted or prohibited from proceeding with planned exploration or development activities.

Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions thereunder, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment, or remedial actions. Parties engaged in mining operations may be required to compensate those suffering loss or damage by reason of the mining

39

activities and may be liable for civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed for violations of applicable laws or regulations. Amendments to current laws, regulations and permitting requirements, or more stringent application of existing laws, could have a material adverse impact on the Company and cause increases in capital expenditures or future production costs or reductions in levels of future production or require abandonment or delays in development.

Operating Hazards and Uninsured or Uninsurable Risks

Mineral exploration and development involve risks, which even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to overcome. Operations in which the Company has a direct or indirect interest will be subject to hazards and risks normally incidental to exploration, development and production of minerals, any of which could result in work stoppages, delays to exploration activities on the Luanga Project, damage to or destruction of property, destruction of the value of the Luanga Project, loss of life and environmental damage. In addition, the Company may become subject to liability for cave-ins, pollution or other hazards against which the Company cannot insure or against which the Company may elect not to insure because of high premium costs or for other reasons. The Company does not currently carry any liability insurance for such risks, electing instead to ensure the Company’s contractors have adequate insurance coverage. The nature of these risks is such that liabilities might exceed any insurance policy limits and the payment of any such liabilities would reduce or eliminate the funds available for exploration and mining activities. Payments of liabilities for which the Company does not carry insurance may have a materially adverse effect upon the Company’s business, financial condition and prospects.

Risks Inherent in Legal Proceedings

In the course of its business, the Company may from time to time become involved in various regulatory investigations, claims, arbitration and other legal proceedings, with and without merit, in the ordinary course of its business. The nature and results of any such proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. Any potential future claims, investigations and proceedings are likely to be of a material nature. In addition, such regulatory investigations, claims, arbitration and other legal proceedings can be lengthy and involve the incurrence of substantial costs and resources by the Company, and the outcome, and the Company’s ability to enforce any ruling(s) obtained pursuant to such proceedings, are subject to inherent risk and uncertainty. The initiation, pursuit and/or outcome of any particular claim, investigation, arbitration or legal proceeding could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations, and on the Company’s business, assets and prospects. In addition, if the Company is unable to resolve any existing or future potential disputes and proceedings favorably, or obtain enforcement of any favorable ruling, if any, that may be obtained pursuant to such proceedings, it is likely to have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations and the Company’s assets and prospects as well as the Company’s share price.

The Company has a Significant Shareholder

It is expected that upon completion of the Offering, Luis Maurício F. Azevedo, the Executive Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company, will hold approximately [●]% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on a non-diluted basis and prior to giving effect to any exercise of the Over-Allotment Option. In some cases, the interests of Mr. Azevedo may not be the same as those of the Company’s other shareholders, and conflicts of interest may arise from time to time that may be resolved in a manner detrimental to the Company or its minority shareholders.

In addition, dispositions by a significant shareholder could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Common Shares, as the market price of the Common Shares could fall. As a result of the significant holdings, there is a risk that the Company’s securities are less liquid and trade at a relative discount compared to circumstances where a significant shareholder does not have the ability to influence or determine matters affecting the Company. Additionally, there is a risk that the significant interest in the Company discourages transactions involving a change of control, including transactions in which an investor, as a holder of the Company’s securities, would otherwise receive a premium for its securities in the Company over the then current market price.

40

Climate Change Legislation

A number of governments have introduced or are moving to introduce climate change legislation and treaties at the international, national, state/provincial and local levels. Regulation relating to emission levels (such as carbon taxes) and energy efficiency is becoming more stringent. If the current regulatory trend continues, this may result in increased costs at the Company’s operations. In addition, the physical risks of climate change may also have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations. Increased drought frequency and increased length of the dry season in Brazil may result in restrictions in the ability to access water for use in the Company’s operations. There can be no assurance that efforts to mitigate the risks of climate change will be effective and that the physical risks of climate change will not have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or prospects.

Competition

The mining industry is intensely and increasingly competitive, and the Company competes for exploration and exploitation properties, personnel with the necessary technical expertise to find, develop, and operate such properties and labour to operate the properties. The Company must compete for these resources with many companies possessing greater financial resources and technical facilities than the Company does. Competition in the mining business could adversely affect the Company’s ability to acquire suitable producing properties or prospects for mineral exploration in the future.

Negative Cash Flow

The Company has a limited history of operations, and no history of earnings, cash flow or profitability. The Company has had negative operating cash flow since the Company’s inception, and the Company will continue to have negative operating cash flow for the foreseeable future. The Luanga Project is at the exploration stage only. The Company has no source of operating cash flow and no assurance that additional funding will be available for further exploration and development of the Luanga Project when required. No assurance can be given that the Company will ever attain positive cash flow or profitability.

Future Acquisitions

As part of the Company’s business strategy, the Company may seek to grow by acquiring companies and/or assets or establishing joint ventures that the Company believes will complement the Company’s current or future business. The Company may not effectively select acquisition candidates or negotiate or finance acquisitions or integrate the acquired businesses and their personnel or acquire assets for the Company’s business. The Company cannot guarantee that the Company can complete any acquisition the Company pursues on favourable terms, or that any acquisitions completed will ultimately benefit the Company’s business.

Risks Related to the Offering and Ownership of the Offered Shares

Global Economy Risk

Global financial conditions continue to be characterized as volatile. In recent years, global markets have been adversely impacted by various credit crises and significant fluctuations in fuel and energy costs and metals prices, including as a result of the COVID-19 virus pandemic and due to significant fluctuations in commodity prices as a result of the ongoing military conflict between Ukraine and Russia and the economic sanctions imposed on Russia in connection therewith. Many industries, including the mining industry, have been impacted by these market conditions. Global financial conditions remain subject to sudden and rapid destabilizations in response to international events, as government authorities may have limited resources to respond to future crises. A continued or worsened slowdown in the financial markets or other economic conditions, including but not limited to consumer spending, employment rates, business conditions, inflation, fuel and energy costs, consumer debt levels, lack of available credit, the state of the financial markets, interest rates and tax rates, may adversely affect the Company’s growth and profitability. Future crises may be precipitated by any number of causes, including natural disasters, geopolitical instability (such as the Russian invasion of Ukraine), changes to energy prices or sovereign defaults. If increased levels of volatility continue or in the event of a rapid destabilization of global economic

41

conditions, it may result in a material adverse effect on commodity prices, demand for metals (including PGE, gold and nickel), availability of credit, investor confidence, and general financial market liquidity, all of which may adversely affect the Company’s business and the market price of the Company’s securities.

Dividend Risk

The Company has not paid dividends in the past and given the nature and stage of the Company does not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future.

Share Price Volatility Risk

The Company has applied to list the Common Shares (including the Offered Shares) on the TSXV. In the event of such listing, external factors outside of the Company’s control, such as announcements of exploration results and other technical information about the Luanga Project, quarterly variations in costs, and sentiments toward mining sector stocks, may have a significant impact on the market price of the Common Shares. Global stock markets, including the TSXV, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations from time to time. The same applies to companies in the mining sector. There can be no assurance that an active or liquid market will develop or be sustained for the Common Shares.

Other factors unrelated to the Company’s performance that may have an effect on the price of the Common Shares include the following: the extent of analytical coverage available to investors concerning the Company’s business may be limited if investment banks with research capabilities do not continue to follow the Company’s securities; the lessening in trading volume and general market interest in the Company’s securities may affect an investor’s ability to trade significant numbers of Common Shares; and the size of the Company’s public float may limit the ability of some institutions to invest in the Company’s securities. Global capital markets have continued to display increased volatility in response to global events, including the COVID-19 virus pandemic and the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts the market for the Company’s securities will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time, and include the duration, severity and scope of the COVID-19 outbreak and the actions taken to contain or treat the COVID-19 outbreak. The continuance or escalation of the military conflict between Ukraine and Russia and the economic sanctions imposed on Russia in connection therewith may result in increased volatility in the market for the Company’s securities and could have other long-term effects which are currently unknown.

Currently No Existing Market for the Common Shares

There is currently no existing public market for the Common Shares. The Common Shares are not currently listed or quoted on any stock exchange or market in Canada or elsewhere. The Company has applied to list its Common Shares on the TSXV. Listing will be subject to the Company fulfilling all of the listing requirements of the TSXV. There is no market through which the Common Shares may be sold and, if a market for the Common Shares does not develop or is not sustained, investors may not be able to resell the Common Shares purchased in the Offering.

If an active trading market does not develop, the trading price of the Common Shares may decline, and investors may have difficulty selling any of the Common Shares that they purchase or acquire by way of the Offering. Prior to the Offering, there has been no public trading market for the Common Shares, and the Company cannot offer assurances that one will develop or be sustained after the Offering. The Company cannot predict the prices at which the Common Shares will trade. The Offering Price will be determined through negotiations among the Company and the Co-Lead Agents, on behalf of the Agents, and may not bear any relationship to the market price at which the Common Shares will trade after the Offering, or to any other established criteria of the Company’s value. Shares of companies often trade at a discount to the initial offering price due to sales loads and related offering expenses.

The market price for the Common Shares could be subject to significant volatility. Factors such as commodity prices, government regulation, interest rates, share price movements of the Company’s peer companies and competitors, as well as overall market movements, may have a significant impact on the market price of the Common Shares. The stock market has from time to time experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations, particularly in the mining sector, which have often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies.

42

Increased Costs of Being a Reporting Issuer and Publicly Traded Company

As the Company will become a reporting issuer in Canada and have publicly-traded securities, significant legal, accounting and filing fees will be incurred that are not presently being incurred. Securities legislation and the rules and policies of the TSXV require publicly listed companies to, among other things, adopt corporate governance policies and related practices and to continuously prepare and disclose material information, all of which will significantly increase legal, financial and securities regulatory compliance costs.

Speculative Nature of Investment Risk

An investment in the Offered Shares carries a high degree of risk and should be considered as a speculative investment. The Company has no history of earnings, limited cash reserves, a limited operating history, has not paid dividends, and is unlikely to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

Liquidity and Future Financing Risk

The Company is in the early stages of its business and has no source of operating revenue. The Company will likely operate at a loss until the Luanga Project or any property acquired by the Company in the future enters into production. The Company’s ability to secure any required financing to sustain operations will depend in part upon prevailing capital market conditions, commodity prices and business success. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to secure any additional financing or additional financing on terms satisfactory to management. If additional financing is raised by issuance of additional Common Shares from treasury, control may change and shareholders may suffer dilution. If adequate funds are not available, or are not available on acceptable terms, the Company may be required to scale back its current business plan or cease operating.

Going-Concern Risk

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis under which an entity is considered to be able to realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company’s future operations are dependent upon the identification and successful completion of equity or debt financing and the achievement of profitable operations at an indeterminate time in the future. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in completing equity or debt financing or in achieving profitability. The Company’s financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments relating to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

General Business Risks

Conflicts of Interest

Certain of the Company’s directors and officers are, and may continue to be, involved in the mineral exploration industry through their direct and indirect participation in corporations, partnerships or joint ventures which are potential competitors of the Company. Situations may arise in connection with potential acquisitions or opportunities where the other interests of these directors and officers may conflict with the Company’s interests. Directors and officers of the Company with conflicts of interest will be subject to and must follow the procedures set out in applicable corporate and securities legislation, regulations, rules and policies. Notwithstanding this, there may be corporate opportunities which the Company is not able to procure due to a conflict of interest of one or more of the Company’s directors or officers.

Future Negative Effects Due to Changes in Tax Regulations Cannot be Excluded

The Company strives to run its business in as tax efficient a manner as possible. The Company is incorporated in Canada, has material subsidiaries incorporated under the laws of Brazil and the British Virgin Islands and holds assets in Brazil, and therefore may be subject to taxation in multiple jurisdictions. The tax systems in certain of the jurisdictions where the Company and its subsidiaries are incorporated and where the Company does business are complicated and subject to change.

43

For this reason, the possibility of future negative effects on the results of the Company due to changes in tax regulations cannot be excluded. Repatriation of any future earnings to Canada from other jurisdictions may be subject to withholding taxes. The Company has no control over withholding tax rates.

Internal Controls Cannot Provide Absolute Assurance with Respect to the Reliability of Financial Reporting and Financial Statement Preparation

Internal controls over financial reporting are procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that transactions are properly authorized, assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use, and transactions are properly recorded and reported. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance with respect to the reliability of financial reporting and financial statement preparation.

Foreign Operations

The Luanga Project is located and the Company’s operations are carried out in Brazil. The banking system and controls, legal and regulatory requirements applicable to companies conducting mineral exploration activities, local business culture and practices in Brazil are different from those in Canada. Although some members of management and the Board have previous experience working and conducting business in Brazil, the officers and directors of the Company must rely, to a great extent, on the Company’s Brazilian legal counsel and local consultants retained by the Company in order to keep abreast of material legal, regulatory and governmental developments as they pertain to and affect the Company’s business operations, and to assist the Company with its governmental relations. The Company also relies on the advice of local experts and professionals in connection with current and new regulations that develop in respect of banking, financing and tax matters in Brazil. Any developments or changes in such legal, regulatory or governmental requirements or in local business practices in Brazil are beyond the control of the Company and may adversely affect its business.

Enforcement of Legal Rights

The Company has material subsidiaries organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and the laws of Brazil and certain of the Company’s directors, management and personnel are located in foreign jurisdictions. Given that the majority of the Company’s material assets and certain of its directors, management and personnel are located outside of Canada, investors may have difficulty in effecting service of process within Canada and collecting from or enforcing against the Company, or its directors and officers, any judgments issued by the Canadian courts or Canadian securities regulatory authorities and predicated on the civil liability provisions of Canadian securities legislation or other laws of Canada. Similarly, in the event a dispute arises in connection with the Company’s foreign operations, the Company may be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of foreign courts or may not be successful in subjecting foreign persons to the jurisdiction of courts in Canada.

The Company is Subject to Anti-Corruption Legislation

The Company is subject to Canada’s Corruption of Foreign Officials Act and Brazil’s Anti-Bribery Law, No. 12.846 (collectively, “ Anti-Corruption Legislation ”), which prohibits the Company or any officer, director, employee or agent of the Company or any shareholder of the Company on its behalf from paying, offering to pay, or authorizing the payment of anything of value to any government official, government staff member, political party, or political candidate in an attempt to obtain or retain business or to otherwise influence a person working in an official capacity. The Anti-Corruption Legislation also requires public companies to make and keep books and records that accurately and fairly reflect their transactions and to devise and maintain an adequate system of internal accounting controls. The Company’s business activities create the risk of unauthorized payments or offers of payments by its employees, consultants, service providers or agents, even though they may not always be subject to its control. The Company prohibits these practices by its employees, consultants, service providers and agents. However, the Company’s existing safeguards and any future improvements may prove to be less than effective, and its employees, consultants, service providers and agents may engage in conduct for which it might be held responsible. Any failure by the Company to adopt appropriate compliance procedures and ensure that its employees, consultants, service providers and agents comply with the Anti-Corruption Legislation could result in

44

substantial penalties or restrictions on the Company’s ability to conduct business, which may have a material adverse impact on the Company and the price of the Common Shares.

The Company’s Operations Depend on Information Technology (“IT”) Systems

Information systems and other technologies, including those related to the Company’s financial and operational management, and its technical and environmental data, are an integral part of the Company’s business activities. These IT systems could be subject to network disruptions caused by a variety of sources, including computer viruses, security breaches and cyberattacks, as well as disruptions resulting from incidents such as cable cuts, damage to physical plants, natural disasters, terrorism, fire, power loss, vandalism and theft. The Company’s operations also depend on the timely maintenance, upgrade and replacement of networks, equipment, IT systems and software, as well as pre-emptive expenses to mitigate the risks of failures. Any of these and other events could result in IT system failures, delays or increase in capital expenses. The failure of IT systems or a component of IT systems could, depending on the nature of any such failure, adversely impact the Company’s reputation and results of operations. Although to date the Company has not experienced any material losses relating to cyber-attacks or other information security breaches, there can be no assurance that the Company will not incur such losses in the future. The Company’s risk and exposure to these matters cannot be fully mitigated because of, among other things, the evolving nature of these threats. As a result, cyber security and the continued development and enhancement of controls, processes and practices designed to protect systems, computers, software, data and networks from attack, damage or unauthorized access remain a priority. As cyber threats continue to evolve, the Company may be required to expend additional resources to continue to modify or enhance protective measures or to investigate and remediate any security vulnerabilities.

Risk Related to General Economic Factors

Volatility in the Worldwide Economy

Economic uncertainty in many parts of the world has adversely affected businesses and industries in almost every sector in more significant and unpredictable ways than in more stable economic times. Prolonged depressed economic conditions and volatility in the worldwide economy may continue to adversely affect individuals and institutions investing in junior mineral exploration and development companies, which could negatively affect the Company’s business and prospects.

Infectious Diseases and Public Health Crisis

Emerging infectious diseases or the threat of outbreaks of viruses or other contagions or epidemic diseases, including the COVID-19 outbreak, could have a material adverse effect on the Company by causing operational and supply chain delays and disruptions (including as a result of government regulation and prevention measures), labour shortages and shutdowns, social unrest, breach of material contracts, government or regulatory actions or inactions, increased insurance premiums, decreased demand for precious metals, declines in the price of precious metals, delays in permitting or approvals, governmental disruptions, capital markets volatility, or other unknown but potentially significant impacts. In addition, governments may impose strict emergencies measures in response to the threat or existence of an infectious disease. It is unknown whether and how the Company may be affected if a pandemic, such as the COVID-19 outbreak, persists for an extended period of time. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has included extreme volatility in financial markets, a slowdown in economic activity and extreme volatility in commodity prices (including precious metals). The international response to COVID-19 led to significant restrictions on travel, temporary business closures, quarantines, global stock market volatility and a general reduction in global consumer activity. In addition, a significant outbreak of contagious diseases in the human population, such as COVID-19, could result in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect the economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn that could result in a material adverse effect on commodity prices, demand for metals, investor confidence, and general financial market liquidity, all of which may adversely affect the Company’s business and the market price of the Common Shares. Accordingly, any outbreak or threat of an outbreak of an epidemic disease or similar public health emergency, including COVID-19, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, prospects and results of operations.

The Company estimates that the net proceeds from the Offering, when combined with other funds available, will fund operations for at least 12 months. The estimated total operating costs necessary for the Company to achieve its business objectives for the next 12 months are US$18,715,000.

While the Company intends to spend the net proceeds of the Offering and other available funds as stated above, there may be circumstances where, for sound business reasons, a re-allocation of funds may be necessary or advisable. The actual amount that the Company spends in connection with each of the intended uses of proceeds may vary significantly from the amounts specified above, and will depend on a number of factors, including those listed under the heading “ Risk Factors ”.

The Company has had negative operating cash flow since the Company’s inception, in light of its nature as a mineral exploration company. The Company anticipates it will continue to have negative operating cash flow in future periods until profitable commercial production is achieved at the Luanga Project. As a result, it is expected that a portion of the net proceeds from the Offering will be used to fund such negative operating cash flow in future periods. The Company cannot predict when it will reach positive operating cash flow, if ever. Due to the expected continuation of negative operating cash flow, the Company will be reliant on future financings in order to meet its cash needs. There is no assurance that such future financings will be available on acceptable terms or at all. See “ Risk Factors ”.

Business Objectives and Milestones

The business objectives that the Company expects to accomplish using the net proceeds from the Offering and other available funds are as follows:

  • complete the Phase 1 Work Program on the Luanga Project, including defining a mineral resource estimate and filing an updated technical report in Q1 2023; and

  • make the Mineral Rights Payment installment of US$500,000 due on November 12, 2022 under the Option Agreement in respect of the Luanga Project.

For a description of each significant event that must occur for the above-noted business objectives to be achieved and the costs related to each such event, please see “ Use of Proceeds and Available Funds ” above.

Subject to available funding and satisfactory results from the Phase 1 Work Program, the Company currently plans to complete the Phase 2 Work Program on the Luanga Project, including defining an updated mineral resource estimate and filing an updated technical report in Q1 2024. For a description of each significant event that must occur for the Phase 2 Work Program related business objectives to be achieved and the costs related to each such event, please see “ Proposed Exploration and Recommendations ” in Schedule “A” to this Prospectus and the “Recommendations” section of the Technical Report.

48

There is no assurance the foregoing goals and objectives will be achieved on the anticipated timeline or at all. The exploration and development of mineral projects is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. See “ Risk Factors ”.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Pursuant to the Agency Agreement, the Company will appoint the Agents, as agents, to conditionally offer the Offered Shares at the Offering Price, on a “best efforts” agency basis, subject to commercial reasonableness, and without underwriter liability, and the Company has agreed to issue and sell, on the Closing Date, up to an aggregate of 23,000,000 Offered Shares at the Offering Price, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $[●], payable in cash to the Company against delivery of the Offered Shares, subject to and in compliance with all of the necessary legal requirements and the terms and conditions contained in the Agency Agreement. The terms of the Offering, including the Offering Price, have been determined by arm’s length negotiation between the Company and the Co-Lead Agents, on behalf of the Agents, in the context of the market.

It is currently anticipated that the Offering Price will be between $1.75 and $2.00 per Offered Share, and that the Offering will be for aggregate gross proceeds of between $40,250,000 and $46,000,000, not including the Over-Allotment Option granted to the Agents.

The obligations of the Agents under the Agency Agreement are several (and not joint, nor joint and several), and are subject to certain closing conditions and may be terminated at their discretion on the basis of “disaster out”, “material change out”, “regulatory out”, “breach out” and “market out” provisions in the Agency Agreement, and may also be terminated upon the occurrence of certain stated events. The Agents are not obligated to purchase any Offered Shares under the Agency Agreement nor are they obligated, directly or indirectly, to advance their own funds to purchase any of the Offered Shares.

There is no minimum amount of funds that must be raised under the Offering. This means that the Company could complete the Offering after raising only a small proportion of the Offering amount set out above.

The Agents have been granted the Over-Allotment Option, exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time on and for a period of 30 days following the Closing Date, to sell up to 3,450,000 Additional Shares (representing 15% of the aggregate number of Offered Shares sold pursuant to the Offering) at the Offering Price, to cover over-allotments, if any, and for market stabilization purposes. The grant of the Over-Allotment Option and the Additional Shares issuable upon exercise of the OverAllotment Option are hereby qualified for distribution under this Prospectus. A purchaser who acquires Additional Shares forming part of the Agents’ over-allocation position acquires such Additional Shares under this Prospectus regardless of whether the over-allocation position is ultimately filled through the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option or secondary market purchases.

Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agency Agreement and in consideration for the services to be rendered by the Agents in connection with the Offering, the Agents will receive the Agents’ Fee equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Offered Shares (including any Additional Shares sold on exercise of the Over-Allotment Option), provided the cash fee payable on subscriptions for Offered Shares by persons on the President’s List, as agreed upon between the Company and the Co-Lead Agents, shall be reduced to 3.0% of the gross proceeds from such sales, other than in respect of subscriptions for Offered Shares by insiders of the Company for which it shall be reduced to 1.0% of the gross proceeds from such sales. The size of the President’s List will be for up to an aggregate maximum of $[●]. The Company has also agreed to reimburse the Agents for their reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses, including the fees and expenses of their legal counsel, whether or not the Offering is completed. All amounts payable to the Agents will be paid from the proceeds of the Offering.

The Offering is being made in each of the provinces of Canada, except Québec. The Offered Shares will be offered in each of such provinces through those Agents or their affiliates who are registered to offer Offered Shares for sale in such provinces and such other registered dealers as may be designated by the Agents. Subject to applicable law, the Agents may offer the Offered Shares in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. Persons and in such other jurisdictions outside of Canada and the United Stats as agreed between the Company and the Agents, in each case in

49

accordance with applicable laws provided that no prospectus, registration statement or similar document is required to be filed in any such jurisdiction.

The Company has applied to list the Common Shares, including the Offered Shares, on the TSXV under the symbol “BRVO”. Listing will be subject to the Company fulfilling all of the listing requirements of the TSXV, including without limitation, the distribution of Common Shares to a minimum number of public shareholders and the Company meeting certain financial and other requirements. Closing of the Offering is conditional, among other things, on the Common Shares (including the Offered Shares) being conditionally approved for listing on the TSXV. There is currently no market through which the Offered Shares may be sold and purchasers may not be able to resell the Offered Shares purchased under this Prospectus. This may affect the pricing of the Offered Shares in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of the Offered Shares, and the extent of issuer regulation. See “ Risk Factors ”.

As at the date of this Prospectus, the Company does not have any of its securities listed or quoted, has not applied to list or quote any of its securities, and does not intend to apply to list or quote any of its securities, on the Toronto Stock Exchange, Aequitas NEO Exchange Inc., a U.S. marketplace, or a marketplace outside Canada and the United States of America (other than the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange or the PLUS markets operated by PLUS Markets Group plc).

The Agents propose to offer the Offered Shares initially at the Offering Price. After the Agents have made reasonable efforts to sell the Offered Shares at such price, the Offering Price may be decreased, and further changed from time to time, to an amount not greater than the Offering Price. However, in no event will the Company receive less than the anticipated net proceeds of $[●] per Offered Share. If the selling price is reduced, the compensation realized by the Agents will be reduced by the amount that the aggregate price paid by the purchasers for the Offered Shares is less than the gross proceeds paid by the Agents to the Company. In addition, the Agents may offer selling group participation to other registered dealers that are satisfactory to the Company, acting reasonably, with compensation to be negotiated between the Agents and such selling group participants, but at no additional cost to the Company.

Pursuant to the Agency Agreement, the Company has agreed that it will not, directly or indirectly, issue or sell any Common Shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for or exercisable to acquire Common Shares for a period of 180 days following the Closing Date without the prior written consent of the Co-Lead Agents, on behalf of the Agents, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, except in conjunction with: (i) the grant of Options and other similar issuances pursuant to the Stock Option Plan and/or other share compensation arrangements of the Company exercisable for securities not to exceed a maximum of 3.0% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares at an exercise price not less than the Offering Price, (ii) the exercise of any Options, warrants or any other convertible securities outstanding as of the Closing Date, (iii) obligations in respect of any agreements existing and in effect as of the Closing Date, and (iv) the issuance of securities in connection with non-material acquisitions in the normal course of business.

Pursuant to the Agency Agreement, the Company has also agreed to use its best efforts to cause each of its directors, officers and principal shareholders to enter into lock-up agreements to be executed concurrently with the closing of the Offering, pursuant to which each such person will agree, among other things, to not, for a period of 180 days following the Closing Date, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, contract to sell, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale, or otherwise dispose of, or transfer, or announce any intention to do so, any Common Shares, whether now owned or hereinafter acquired, directly or indirectly, or under their control or direction, or with respect to which each has beneficial ownership, or enter into any transaction or arrangement that has the effect of transferring, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of Common Shares, whether such transaction is settled by the delivery of Common Shares, other securities, cash or otherwise, other than pursuant to a take-over bid or any other similar transaction made generally to all of the shareholders of the Company.

Pursuant to the rules and policy statements of certain Canadian securities regulatory authorities, the Agents may not, throughout the period of distribution under the Offering, bid for or purchase Common Shares for their own accounts or for accounts over which they exercise control or direction. The foregoing restriction is subject to certain exceptions including:

50

(i) a bid or purchase permitted under the Universal Market Integrity Rules for Canadian Marketplaces administered by the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada relating to market stabilization and passive market making activities, (ii) a bid or purchase made for or on behalf of a customer where the order was not solicited during the period of the distribution, provided that the bid or purchase was for the purposes of maintaining a fair and orderly market and not engaged in for the purpose of creating actual or apparent active trading in, or raising the price of, such securities, or (iii) a bid or purchase to cover a short position entered into prior to the commencement of the prescribed restricted period. Subject to applicable laws and in connection with the Offering, the Agents may over-allot or effect transactions in connection with the Offering intended to stabilize or maintain the market price of the Common Shares at levels other than those which otherwise might prevail on the open market. Such transactions, if commenced, may be discontinued by the Agents at any time. The Agents may carry out these transactions on the TSXV, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

The Company has also agreed to indemnify the Agents and each of their respective affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, partners and shareholders and to hold them harmless from and against certain losses, claims, suits, liabilities, costs, damages or expenses, including liabilities under Canadian securities legislation in certain circumstances or to contribute to payments the Agents may have to make because of such liabilities.

Subscriptions for the Offered Shares will be received subject to rejection or allocation, in whole or in part, and the Agents reserve the right to close the subscription books at any time without notice. The closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about [●], 2022, or such other date as the Company and the Co-Lead Agents, on behalf of the Agents, may agree, but in any event, within 90 days of the issuance of a receipt for the (final) prospectus or such later date as may be permitted under securities legislation. It is anticipated that the Offered Shares will be delivered under the book-based system through CDS or its nominee and deposited in electronic form. A purchaser of Offered Shares will receive only a customer confirmation from the registered dealer from or through which the Offered Shares are purchased and who is a CDS depository service participant. CDS will record the CDS participants who hold Offered Shares on behalf of owners who have purchased Offered Shares in accordance with the book-based system. No definitive certificates will be issued unless specifically requested or required.

The Offered Shares have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or under any state securities laws, and such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. Persons except in compliance with exemptions from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Agency Agreement permits the Agents to offer and sell Offered Shares on behalf of the Company, in accordance with applicable law, to “accredited investors” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the U.S. Securities Act, in transactions that comply with the requirements of the exemption from registration provided by Rule 506(b) of Regulation D and in compliance with applicable state securities laws. The Offered Shares will also be offered and sold outside the United States only in accordance with Rule 903 of Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act.

The Offered Shares sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. Persons or persons in the United States will be “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) of the U.S. Securities Act. Certificates representing the Offered Shares that are offered, sold or issued in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. Persons or persons in the United States will bear a legend to the effect that the securities represented thereby are not registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws and may only be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred pursuant to certain exemptions from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

In addition, until 40 days after the commencement of the Offering, an offer or sale of the Offered Shares may violate the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act if such offer or sale is made otherwise than in accordance with an exemption from such registration requirements.

DESCRIPTION OF THE SECURITIES BEING DISTRIBUTED

Common Shares

The Company’s authorized capital consists of an unlimited number of Common Shares, of which 78,000,001 Common Shares are issued and outstanding as at the date of this Prospectus. Holders of the Common Shares are entitled to one vote per share at all meetings of the holders of common shares of the Company and, subject to the rights of holders of any shares ranking in priority to or on a parity with the Common Shares, to participate rateably in any distribution of the Company’s property or assets upon liquidation or wind-up. The holders of Common Shares, subject to the prior rights, if any, of any other class of shares of the Company, are entitled to receive such dividends as the directors of the Company may, from time to time, declare and authorize the payment of by resolution. There are no pre-emptive, redemption, retraction, purchase for cancellation, surrender, sinking or purchase fund provisions or conversion or exchange rights attached to the Common Shares. There are no provisions permitting or restricting the issuance of additional securities and any other material restrictions or requiring a holder of Common Shares to contribute additional capital. All Common Shares, when issued, are and will be issued as fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares without liability for further calls or to assessment.

In connection with the second tranche of the Second Private Placement, the Company granted the subscriber the AntiDilution Right, allowing the subscriber to maintain its ownership percentage in the Common Shares by participating in future offerings of Common Shares on the same terms and at the same price as the Common Shares are offered to other investors in such an offering. The Anti-Dilution Right will terminate on the earlier of: (i) the date the holder of the AntiDilution Right ceases to hold any Common Shares; and (ii) the closing of the Offering.

Options

The Company intends to issue the IPO Stock Options (as defined herein) to certain directors, officers, consultants and employees on the Closing Date. See “ Options to Purchase Securities ”.

Stock Option Plan

The Board has adopted an evergreen stock option plan (the “ Stock Option Plan ”) whereby the maximum number of Common Shares that may be reserved for issuance under outstanding Options is 10% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Shares on a non-diluted basis, as constituted on the date of any grant of Options under the Stock Option Plan. If Options are exercised, or are surrendered, terminate or expire without being exercised in whole or in part, the Common Shares which were the subject of such Options may again be made subject to an Option.

The purpose of the Stock Option Plan is to promote the profitability and growth of the Company by facilitating the efforts of the Company and its subsidiaries to obtain and retain key individuals. The Stock Option Plan provides an incentive for and encourages ownership of the Company’s shares by its key individuals so that they may increase their stake in the Company and benefit from increases in the value of the Common Shares, it being generally recognized that stock option plans aid in attracting, retaining and encouraging employees and directors due to the opportunity offered to them to acquire a proprietary interest in the company.

The Stock Option Plan shall be administered by the Board and the Board may delegate responsibility for administering the Stock Option Plan to the Compensation Committee (the “ Plan Administrator ”).

Eligibility

Employees, officers and directors, and consultants of the Company (collectively, “ Participants ”) are eligible to receive Options under the Stock Option Plan.

Determination of Recipients and Terms

The Plan Administrator shall from time to time determine the Participants to whom Options are granted, the number of Common Shares to be made subject to and the expiry date of each Option granted to each Participant and the other terms of each Option, including any vesting provisions that may be applicable, all such determinations to be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Stock Option Plan. When determining the terms of an Option grant to a Participant, the Plan Administrator may take into consideration the present and potential contributions of and the services rendered by the Participant to the success of the Company and any other factors which the Plan Administrator deems appropriate and relevant, including previous grants.

Each Option is evidenced by a stock option agreement (an “ Award Agreement ”) containing terms and conditions consistent with the provisions of the Stock Option Plan. No Participant who is a director of the Company is permitted to vote on any motion granting any Option to such director.

Number of Common Shares

The Stock Option Plan provides that the maximum number of Common Shares which may be made subject to Options under the Stock Option Plan at any time and from time to time shall not exceed 10% of the total number of Common Shares then outstanding on a non-diluted basis (subject to adjustment with respect to capital changes in accordance with the terms of the Stock Option Plan). In addition, the maximum number of Common Shares which, together with Common Shares subject to all other security-based compensation arrangements of the Company (within the meaning of the policy on security-based compensation arrangements of the TSXV) with such participant(s), may be:

  • (a) reserved for issue to Participants who are “ Insiders ” (as defined in the policies of the TSXV) as a group at any time shall not exceed 10% of the number of Common Shares then outstanding;

  • (b) issued to Participants who are Insiders within a one-year period shall not exceed 10% of the number of Common Shares then outstanding;

55

  • (c) issued to any one Participant within a one-year period shall not exceed 5% of the number of Common Shares then outstanding;

  • (d) issued to any one “service provider” (as defined in the Stock Option Plan) within a one-year period shall not exceed 2% of the number of Common Shares then outstanding; and

  • (e) issued to “investor relations service providers” of the Company (as defined in the policies of the TSXV) as a group within a one-year period shall not exceed 2% of the number of Common Shares then outstanding.

For purposes of paragraphs (a) through (e) above, the number of Common Shares then outstanding means the number of Common Shares outstanding on a non-diluted basis immediately prior to the proposed grant of the applicable Option, excluding Common Shares issued pursuant to share compensation arrangements over the preceding one-year period.

Exercise Price

The exercise price of an Option under the Stock Option Plan is determined by the Plan Administrator at the time the Option is granted, provided that such price can be not less than the discounted market price (as defined in the policies of the TSXV) as of the date of the grant of such Option.

Cashless Exercise

The Stock Option Plan contains a cashless exercise provision whereby an Option that is eligible for exercise may be exercised on a cashless basis instead of a Participant making a cash payment for the aggregate exercise price of the Options being exercised. When a Participant elects the cashless exercise of Options by providing the prescribed form of notice of cashless exercise to the Company specifying the number of Options to be exercised for cash, the exercise price of the Options is advanced by an independent brokerage firm, the advance is deducted from the proceeds of sale of the Common Shares issued on exercise, and the remaining proceeds or Common Shares are paid to the Participant after deducting any withholding tax or other withholding liabilities.

Net Exercise

The Stock Option Plan contains a net exercise provision whereby an Option that is eligible for exercise may be exercised on a net exercise basis instead of the Participant making a cash payment for the aggregate exercise price of the Options being exercised. When a Participant elects the net exercise of Options by providing the prescribed form of notice of net exercise to the Company specifying the number of Options to be exercised on a net exercise basis, the Participant will receive a number of Common Shares equal to: (i) the number of Options being exercised on a net exercise basis, multiplied by the difference between the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the TSXV for the five trading days immediately preceding the net exercise (the “ VWAP ”) and the aggregate exercise price of the Options being exercised on a net exercise basis; divided by (ii) the VWAP. Participants who are “investor relations service providers” of the Company (as defined in the policies of the TSXV) will not be permitted to exercise Options on a net exercise basis.

Term and Expiry Dates

The maximum term of Options granted under the Stock Option Plan is 10 years. The expiry date of an Option is the later of: (i) the expiry date specified in the Award Agreement, and (ii) where the specified expiry date falls within a Black Out Period (as defined below), the date that is 10 trading days following the end of such Black Out Period. Should an Option expire immediately after a Black Out Period, the blackout expiration term will be reduced by the number of days between the Option expiration date and the end of the Black Out Period. For the purposes of the Stock Option Plan, a “ Black Out Period ” means a period self-imposed by the Company during which the Company prohibits Participants from exercising Options and which satisfies the following conditions: (a) the Black Out Period must be formally imposed by the Company pursuant to its internal policies as a result of the bona fide existence of an undisclosed “material fact” or “material change”, as such terms are defined in applicable securities legislation; and (b) the Black Out Period must expire following the general disclosure of the undisclosed material fact or material change. The specified expiry date of a Participant’s Options may only

56

be extended due to a Black Out Period if, at the time of the Black Out Period, neither the Company nor the Participant is subject to a cease trade order in respect of the Company’s securities.

Termination of Options

In the event a Participant dies, all Options held by the Participant are exercisable by the person(s) to whom the rights of the Participant shall pass for a period of one year from the date of the Participant’s death or prior to the expiration of the original term of such Options, whichever is sooner, to the extent that Participant was entitled to exercise the Options at such time, subject to the provisions of any employment contract between the Participant and the Company.

All Options held by a Participant whose office or employment is terminated for cause cease to be exercisable as of the date of such termination. If a Participant ceases to be eligible under the Stock Option Plan for any reason other than termination for cause or by virtue of death, Options can be exercised by such Participant for a period of 30 days or prior to the original expiry date of the Option, whichever is sooner, subject to the provisions of any employment contract between the Participant and the Company.

Capital Changes, Corporate Transactions, Take-Over Bids and Change of Control

The Stock Option Plan contains provisions for the treatment of Options in relation to capital changes and with regard to amalgamations, consolidations or mergers. The Stock Option Plan provides that if the Company is subject to a bona-fide “take-over bid” (as such term is defined in the Stock Option Plan), all Common Shares subject to Options immediately become vested and may thereupon be exercised in whole or in part by a respective Participant in order to tender the Common Shares received upon the exercise of such Options. In the event that the take-over bid is not completed within the applicable time period, or in the event that not all the Common Shares received upon the exercise of such Options are taken up or paid for by the offeror under the take-over bid, then the holder of such Options may return to the Company any Common Shares that were not taken up or paid for and the Company shall refund the exercise price paid and reinstate the Options so exercised.

The Stock Option Plan provides that if the Company is subject to a “change of control” (as such term is defined in the Stock Option Plan), all Common Shares subject to Options immediately become vested and may thereupon be exercised in whole or in part by the respective Participant.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the vesting of Options granted to investor relations service providers of the Company cannot be accelerated without the prior written approval of the TSXV.

Amendment

Any amendment, modification, or change of any provision of the Stock Option Plan is subject to the approval, if required, by the TSXV and any regulatory body having jurisdiction. The Stock Option Plan permits the Board to amend, modify and change the provisions of an Option or the Stock Option Plan without obtaining approval of disinterested shareholders in the following circumstances:

  • (a) changes of a clerical nature;

  • (b) any other amendments of a non-material nature which are approved by the TSXV;

  • (c) amendments to clarify existing provision of the Stock Option Plan that do not have the effect of altering the scope, nature and intent of such provisions; and

  • (d) amendments deemed by the Board to be necessary or advisable because of any change in applicable securities laws or other laws.

57

Under the Stock Option Plan, the Board is not, however, permitted to amend the exercise price of any Option issued under the Stock Option Plan where such amendment reduces the exercise price of such Option, and the Stock Option Plan further provides that all amendments, modifications, or changes not outlined immediately above shall only be effective upon approval of the disinterested shareholders of the Company.

Assignability

No rights under the Stock Option Plan and no Option awarded pursuant to it are assignable or transferrable by any Participant other than pursuant to a will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

Termination of Plan

The Stock Option Plan may be terminated at any time by the Board. Notwithstanding any such termination, any Options outstanding under the Stock Option Plan will remain in effect until such Options expire or are exercised, surrendered to the Company or terminated.

ESCROWED SECURITIES AND SECURITIES SUBJECT TO CONTRACTUAL RESTRICTION ON TRANSFER

Escrowed Securities

In the event that the Common Shares become listed on the TSXV, the Company anticipates that it will be classified as an “emerging issuer” (as defined under National Policy 46-201 – Escrow for Initial Public Offerings (“ NP 46-201 ”)) upon such listing. Each of Luis Maurício F. Azevedo, Dr. Nicole Adshead-Bell, Stephen Quin, Simon Mottram, Stuart Comline, Anthony Polglase, Manoel Cerqueira, Alexandre Penha and James McVicar (collectively, the “ Escrowed Holders ”) would fall within the definition of “principal” of an emerging issuer under NP 46-201 or would otherwise be treated in the same manner as a principal under NP 46-201. In accordance with applicable securities rules, the Escrowed Holders who hold securities of the Company that are subject to escrow have executed an escrow agreement with the Company and Computershare Trust Company of Canada (the “ Escrow Agent ”) made as of [●], 2022 and substantially in the form of Form 46-201F1 (the “ Escrow Agreement ”) in respect of an aggregate of 59,300,001 Common Shares. The Escrow Agreement will be filed under the Company’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com upon the issuance of the receipt for the (final) prospectus.

58

Based on the escrow classification of the Company as an emerging issuer, principals of the Company are required under NP 46-201 not to transfer or otherwise dispose of securities of the Company that are subject to escrow for a period of 36 months starting from the date the Common Shares are listed for trading on the TSXV (the “ Listing Date ”), subject to the following automatic timed releases which would apply to such securities:

As disclosed under the heading “ General Development and Business of the Company - Overview and History of BPGM Mineração and the Company ” above, the indirect acquisition of the Luanga Project under the Share Exchange Agreement is a related party transaction because the Vendors are two companies controlled by Luis Maurício F.

  • (d) each individual who would be a Named Executive Officer under paragraph (c) but for the fact that the individual was not an executive officer of the Company and was not acting in a similar capacity, at the end of that financial year.

68

The Company’s Named Executive Officers for the purposes of this section are Luis Maurício F. Azevedo (Executive Chairman and CEO), Manoel Cerqueira (CFO), Simon Mottram (President) and Alexandre Penha (EVP Corporate Development).

The Company was not a reporting issuer at any time during the most recently completed financial period. Future compensation to be awarded or paid to the Company’s directors and/or executive officers, including Named Executive Officers, once the Company becomes a reporting issuer is expected to consist primarily of base salary and/or consulting fees, stock options and bonuses.

Following the Listing Date and until such time as the Compensation Committee undertakes its first compensation review, the Company expects to continue to pay consulting fees to the Named Executive Officers as set forth under “ Employment, Consulting and Management Agreements ” below and to grant Options (including the IPO Stock Options) to all of the Company’s directors and management, including Named Executive Officers, pursuant to the Stock Option Plan. The Board will from time to time determine the Option grants to be made pursuant to the Stock Option Plan after consultation with the Compensation Committee. See “ Stock Option Plan ” below and “ Options to Purchase Securities ”. In addition, it is anticipated that the Board may award bonuses, in its sole discretion, to executive officers, including Named Executive Officers, from time to time after consultation with the Compensation Committee. See “ Corporate Governance Disclosure – Compensation ”.

The Compensation Committee plans to undertake its first comprehensive review of compensation in Q3 2022 on the basis of the Company’s status as a publicly-traded company, in comparison to industry peers of similar market capitalizations and stages of activity, supported by external benchmarking studies. The planned compensation review could result in increases in base salaries or consulting fees for certain key personnel, including directors, officers and senior executives. The compensation review is also expected to establish short-term and long-term incentive plans and extended benefits, to be assessed in accordance with the Company’s compensation policy. Subsequent to the first comprehensive review, compensation is expected to be reviewed periodically in accordance with the guidelines of the Compensation Committee Mandate. See “ Corporate Governance Disclosure – Compensation ”.

Stock Option Plan

The Stock Option Plan is expected to be used to grant Options to directors, officers (including Named Executive Officers), employees and consultants of the Company, as additional compensation and as an opportunity to participate in the success of the Company. The granting of such Options is intended to align the interests of such persons with that of the Company’s shareholders.

In determining the number of Options to be granted to directors or executive officers, including the Named Executive Officers, the Board will take into account, among other things:

  • the number of Options, if any, previously granted to each director or executive officer; and

  • the exercise price of any outstanding Options to ensure that such grants are in accordance with the policies of the TSXV and closely align the interests of the directors and executive officers with the interests of shareholders.

The Compensation Committee has the responsibility of administering the compensation policies related to the directors and executive management of the Company, including Option-based awards, or where such responsibility is not delegated to the Compensation Committee, making recommendations to the Board regarding awards.

The Stock Option Plan has not been approved by the shareholders of the Company. In accordance with the policies of the TSXV, after the listing of the Common Shares on the TSXV, the Company must obtain shareholder approval of its Stock Option Plan on an annual basis at each annual general meeting of shareholders.

See “ Options to Purchase Securities ” for the material terms of the Stock Option Plan.

Access

The Luanga Project is accessible via paved and unpaved roads from two regional centres, Parauapebas and Marabá. Both cities have commercial airports with multiple flights a day to Brasilia and Belém from Parauapebas and to Brasilia, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Salvador and others from Marabá. Access to the Luanga Project is via a high-quality unpaved road that turns off paved Highway PA-257.

The closest population centres to the Luanga Project are the small town of Curionópolis, with a population of approximately 17,846, approximately 17km south-southwest of the Luanga Project and the mining community of Serra Pelada approximately 12km to the west of the Luanga Project. There are no communities within the property boundary. Bravo’s centre of operations is in the municipality of Currionopolis.

Parauapebas, located approximately 40km to west-southwest of the Luanga Project is the key service provider and labour source in the region. Parauapebas is the largest mining town in the state, with a significant labour force resident in the

A-2

town supporting multiple World class sized iron ore and copper-gold mines in the Carajás. Parauapebas is also home to all of the mining-related services and mining infrastructure in the region. Parauapebas was recorded as having a population of 213,576 in 2020. It is expected that any future operation will be able to source all labour from the local region. The nearest rail services are those privately owned by VALE SA located in Parauapebas, which connect to Marabá. The nearest commercial scale port facilities are Vila da Conde located adjacent to state capital Belém, approximately 660km to the north. The port facilities can also be accessed via barge on the Tocantins River, the nearest access to which is also in Marabá.

The Luanga Project resides on private farmland generally used for cattle farming. There are no indigenous claims or protected forests in this area. In order to carry out exploration/feasibility works, such as drilling, an access agreement is required with the owner of the surface rights (landowner). Land access agreements are currently in place with 4 out of 5 key landowners. Negotiations with the final landowner is in progress and is expected to be concluded shortly. Brazilian Mining Legislation, Administration and Rights are governed by the Brazil Mining Code (Federal Law Decree No. 227/1967), which regulates exploration and development of mineral resources and mining projects in Brazil.

Each tenement is granted subject to standard conditions that regulate the holder’s activities and regulations that are designed to protect the environment. The holder of a granted Prospecting Licence, Exploration Licence or Mining Licence is not required to spend a set annual amount per hectare in each tenement on exploration or mining activities. There is no statutory or other minimum expenditure requirement in Brazil. However, annual rental payments are made to the Brazilian National Department of Mineral Production (Mining National Agency, ANM) and the holder of an Exploration Licence must pay rates and taxes ranging, based on current exchange rate, from US$0.69 to US$1.03 per hectare to the Government. If a mineral tenement is located on private land, then the holder must arrange or agree with the landowners to access the property, however in the absence of an agreement the company can request access in court and by depositing a compensation value that is established and estimated by a court expert.

BPGM Mineração acquired its interest in the Luanga Project from VALE SA pursuant to an option agreement dated October 13, 2020 (the “ Option Agreement ”). Under the Option Agreement, VALE SA granted BPGM Mineração an exclusive option to acquire the Luanga Project for a period of two years beginning on November 12, 2020, in consideration for the payment of an aggregate of US$1.3 million to VALE SA in three annual installments and the grant to VALE SA of a 1.0% NSR royalty on the Luanga Project, to be paid quarterly. BPGM Mineração exercised the option on January 27, 2021 and made the first installment payment of US$300,000 on November 12, 2021. The second installment payment in the amount of US$500,000 is due November 12, 2022 and the third installment payment in the amount of US$500,000 is due November 12, 2023, for an aggregate of US$1,000,000 remaining due to VALE SA under the Option Agreement.

Pursuant to an agreement dated March 31, 1997 between VALE SA and Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social (“ BNDES ”), BNDES was granted a royalty over certain mining rights, including those comprising the Luanga Project. On February 18, 2021, VALE SA and BPGM Mineração provided notice to BNDES of a request to transfer the interest of VALE SA in the Luanga Project to BPGM Mineração, and the transfer was subsequently approved by ANM on November 29, 2021. BPGM Mineração has entered into a royalty agreement with BNDES dated November 1, 2021, pursuant to which BPGM Mineração granted BNDES a 2.0% royalty on the net operating revenue generated by the production of platinum concentrate on the Luanga Project.

The Luanga Project will also be subject to Brazilian Government royalties, termed CFEM ( Compensação Financeira pela Exploração de Recursos Minerais ). These royalties depend on the commodity and include a 1.5% NSR royalty on gold, a 2% NSR royalty on palladium, platinum and rhodium and a 2% NSR royalty on nickel. As the Luanga Project is located on private ground, the Company will also be subject to the Private Landowner Royalty, which is equal to 50% of the CFEM royalties.

Under Brazilian mining law, exploration and study work (including all works in the recommendations of the Luanga Report) do not require any permitting, as the land is privately owned, and permission to conduct work is resolved under the land access agreements with various owners. As far as the Authors are aware, there are no other significant factors or risks that may impede access or the ability to perform the proposed work on the property.

History

The Carajás Mineral Province

The first successful mineral exploration in the Carajás was carried out by Companhia de Desenvolvimento de Indústrias Minerais (“ CODIM ”), a subsidiary of Union Carbide which, in 1966, discovered the manganese deposit of Serra do Sereno. This discovery motivated US Steel, through its subsidiary Companhia Meridional de Mineração (“ CMM ”), to commence regional-scale exploration in the Carajás. In July 1967, a Brazilian team discovered high-grade iron ore with an average ore grade of 66% Fe. US Steel wanted to develop the Carajás iron deposit, but the Brazilian Government was unwilling to give a foreign company control over such an important national asset. Instead, in April 1970, the Brazilian Government created a joint venture company, Amazônias Mineração SA (“ AMSA ”), where 51% was owned by Companhia Vale do Rio Doce (“ CVRD ”, now VALE SA), the Brazilian Government state enterprise, and 49% was owned by CMM. By presidential decree, on 6 September 1974, AMSA was granted the rights to all iron ore in the Carajás Mineral Province.

A-4

Iron ore exploration continued until 1977 when CMM, concerned over the high capital cost and poor outlook for iron ore, withdrew from the project. CVRD purchased CMM’s 49% for US$55 million. AMSA, now wholly owned by CVRD, was granted the rights for mineral exploration and development of the entire Carajás Mineral Province.

In June 1978, the construction of the Carajás railroad, linking Ponta da Madeira on the Maranhão coastline to the Carajás, launched the development of the Carajás Iron Ore Project. This is reported to have cost CVRD US$3 billion in direct investments.

With the establishment of the Carajás Iron Ore Project and its associated infrastructure, the Carajás Mineral Province was established and recognised. Decades on it is the largest mineral province in the world, and the largest mining region in Brazil.

The Luanga Project

Mafic-ultramafic rocks of the Luanga Complex were identified in 1993 during regional exploration developed by Rio Doce Geologia e Mineração S.A. (“ DOCEGEO ”), a subsidiary of CVRD, in the Serra Leste region. Following the discovery of up to 2m thick chromatites, DOCEGEO carried out geological mapping, soil geochemistry survey (400mx40m grid) and ground magnetic survey in the Luanga Complex. Four diamond bore holes were drilled to test the thickness and lateral continuity of outcropping chromatites. The drilling was not positive for chromatite mineralization, but intersected anomalous concentrations of Pt and Pd, including 9 metres at 2.57 ppm of Pt+Pd (drillhole PPT-LUAN-FD0004).

In 1997, a joint-venture DOCEGEO-Barrick Gold carried out a stream sediment campaign over the Luanga Complex area that identified Au anomalism.

In 2000, VALE SA carried out a new soil geochemistry survey to test the Au anomalies indicated by Barrick Gold. The sampling grid, covering the southern portion of Luanga Complex, indicated a 1 km long trend of Pt and Pd anomalies. Due to this anomalous trend, VALE SA carried out additional soil geochemistry survey in the northern portion of the Luanga Complex (next to chromatite layers), which identified another 1 km long Pd and Pt anomalous trend. The geochemical survey was extended to the central portion of the layered complex, adding a further 2km extension, now joining up to form a continuous Pt-Pd anomalous trend along the entire length of the layered intrusion.

Historic Drilling

VALE SA drilled 252 diamond drill holes (50,352.89 linear metres) on the Luanga Project between 1993 to 2003. The majority of the diamond drilling occurred between 2001 and 2003 over two main targets, Luanga and Luanga South. At Luanga, 228 diamond drill holes (45,165.74 linear metres) were completed, representing approximately 90% of the entire drilling program. At Luanga South, 24 drill holes (5,187.15 linear metres) were completed.

The majority of diamond drilling was carried out by two Brazilian diamond drilling companies Geologia e Sondagem S.A. (“ Geosol ”) and Engenharia e Sondagem Ltda (Rede). DOCEGEO was responsible for the first four drill holes at the Luanga Project.

TOTAL 252 50,352.89

Most of the diamond drill holes (248 holes) were drilled with inclinations varying from -55.0⁰ to -70.0⁰, with the predominant inclination at -60.0. Only four diamond drill holes were drilled vertically or close to vertical (-90.0⁰ to -80.0⁰).

A-5

Maximum hole length was 497.60m and the average hole length was 199.8 metres. The DD drill holes were drilled with a HQ (96.40mm) diameter in the weathered zone, changing to NQ (76.20 mm) diameter in the fresh rock. There is no information about the drilling recovery in the historical database. However, from visual inspection of available core from these programs, recoveries appear to have been excellent.

The upper portions of the Luanga deposit have been oxidized to depths of a few meters to a few tens of metres and are underlain by a thin transition zone before fresh sulphide mineralization is encountered. PGEs and Au are potentially recoverable from both oxide and sulphide mineralization, based on comparable deposits, whereas Ni would typically only be recovered from sulphide mineralization, where present in sulphide minerals as opposed to silicates.

Notes:

(1) All drill holes ID have a prefix “PPT-LUAN-”. All From To depths, and Intervals are downhole. Given the orientation of the holes and the mineralization, the intercepts are estimated to range from ~70 to 100% of true thickness. Holes marked with # were drilled sub-parallel to mineralization and therefore do not represent true thicknesses.

(2) Ox = Oxide. Su = Sulphide. Recovery methods and results will differ based on the type of mineralization.

The location of the drill holes at Luanga and Luanga South targets are illustrated below. A tabulation of collar coordinates, and final depths are presented as Appendix B in the Luanga Report.

Historic Mineral Resource

The “Historical Estimate” of mineral resources for the Luanga Project was prepared internally in 2017 by VALE SA and reported in Mansur et al., 2020 as:

142Mt @ 1.24 g/t 3E (Pd + Pt + Au) + 0.11% Ni using a cut-off grade of 0.5 g/t PGE + Au.

No breakdown of the individual metals contributing to this Historical Estimate has been published and no technical report related to this Historical Estimate is available to the Authors. As a result, aside from the information quoted above, nothing is known of the key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the Historical Estimate. Further, this Historical Estimate was not classified in accordance with the categories of mineral resource required by NI 43-101. Since Bravo has just acquired the Luanga Project directly from VALE SA and has not conducted any work, there are no more recent estimates or data available to the Authors. Despite these limitations, the Authors believe that this Historical Estimate is relevant to the reader’s understanding of the status of the Luanga Project and its future potential. Further, given that this estimate was prepared by VALE SA, a major mining company with global operations, it is likely to have been prepared to standards a reasonable person would use and is therefore considered reliable for the purposes of defining recommendations for future work. See Section 26 of the Luanga Report for the Authors’ recommendations as to the work that needs to be done to upgrade or verify the Historical Estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves.

Bravo cautions that a qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the Historical Estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves under NI 43-101, and Bravo is not treating the Historical Estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. There can be no certainty, following further evaluation and/or exploration work, that the Historical Estimate can be upgraded or verified as mineral resources or mineral reserves in accordance with NI 43-101. Further, the assays values used to calculate the Nickel content in the Historical Estimate are total Nickel, and thus contain both sulphide Nickel (recoverable) and silicate Nickel (unrecoverable). It is unknown to Bravo whether or not the nickel content in the Historic Estimate has been modified to account for this.

Historic Metallurgical Testwork

For a summary of historical metallurgical testing on the Luanga Project, see “ Mineral Processing and Metallurgical Testing ” below.

A-11

Historic Bulk Density

Bulk density measurements (weight in water-weight in air) were completed on 2,962 pieces of fresh and weathered core from 14 individual drill holes, including mineralized and non-mineralized rocks. Weathered pieces were infused and sealed with paraffin. The weight was obtained using an electronic scale (Urano manufacturer, model 10000/1) with a nominal capacity of 10 kg and precision of 0.5 g.

Geological Setting, Mineralization and Deposit Types

Regional Geology

The following is summarized from published academic works describing the regional geological framework of the Amazon Craton.

The Brazilian Shield extends over much of South America east of the Andes Mountains. The major tectonic units of the Shield are the Mesoproterozoic Amazon, São Francisco and the Rio de la Plata Cratons, surrounded by Neoproterozoic orogenic belts. There are many smaller cratonic fragments, such as the São Luís Craton. Paleoarchean rocks occur as small cratonic nuclei in north-eastern Brazil. The cratons contain voluminous 2,600-3,000Ma granitic and greenstone belts and a large volume of Paleoproterozoic rocks. The Neoproterozoic orogenic belts are dominantly derived from re-working of older Archean crust but also include Mesoproterozoic sediments and volcanogenic sediments. Major orogenic activity ceased in the Cambrian. Deformation of the Shield in the Phanerozoic is limited to re-activation of older sub-vertical shear zones.

The Amazon Craton is the largest preserved block in the Brazilian Shield. Deformation is concentrated along the Neoproterozoic Araguaia orogenic belt on the eastern flank of the south Amazon craton. Like similar PGE deposits (such as Chalice’s Gonneville deposit (Julimar Project)), the Luanga Project is intruded close to the edge of the Amazon craton edge, within a dilation splay at the end of the Cinzento Shear.

The Carajás Mineral Province

The Carajás Mineral Province is one of the most important mineral provinces of the South American continent, hosting several world-class Fe, Cu-Au and Ni deposits. It is in the south-eastern portion of the Amazonian Craton, bounded by the Neoproterozoic Araguaia Belt in the east and south, and overlain by Paleoproterozoic sequences generically assigned to the Uatumã Supergroup in the west (Araújo and Maia, 1991; Docegeo, 1988). To the north, where Paleoproterozoic gneissmigmatite-granulite terrains predominate (Vasquez et al., 2008), geological limits are not precisely defined. The Carajás Mineral Province is subdivided into two Archean tectonic domains: the older Mesoarchean Rio Maria Domain to the south and the younger Neoarchean Carajás Domain to the north (Araújo and Maia, 1991; Araújo et al., 1988; Dall'Agnol et al., 2006; Docegeo, 1988; Feio et al., 2013). A regional E–W shear zone, known as the Transition Subdomain (Feio et al., 2013), separates the Rio Maria and Carajás domains.

The Rio Maria Domain is a typical granite–greenstone terrain (Vasquez et al., 2008). The Andorinhas Supergroup comprises several individual Mesoarchean greenstone belts (2904 ± 29 Ma) and metasedimentary rocks (Huhn et al., 1986; Souza and Dall'Agnol, 1996; Souza et al., 2001). The recent characterization of spinifex-textured komatiites in a greenstone belt

A-13

sequence within the Transition Subdomain (Siepierski and Ferreira Filho, 2016) suggests that granite–greenstone terrains extend further north than indicated in previous regional maps.

The basement of the Carajás Domain consists mainly of gneiss-migmatite-granulite terrains of the Xingu Complex (Machado et al., 1991; Pidgeon et al., 2000). The evolution of the Carajás Domain is widely discussed. Different models have been proposed to explain the evolution of the Archean volcano-sedimentary sequences, which includes the large sequence of metabasalts of the Grão Pará Group (ca. 2.75 Ga). While several studies have proposed an intraplate rift model (Gibbs et al., 1986; Villas and Santos, 2001), others have suggested subduction-related environments (Dardenne et al., 1988; Teixeira and Eggler, 1994). These volcano-sedimentary sequences are covered by low-grade metamorphic sequences of clastic sedimentary rocks of the Águas Claras Formation.

Local Geology

The Luanga Project’s principal geological unit is the Luanga Layered Mafic-Ultramafic Complex (the “ Luanga Complex ”). The Luanga Complex comprises a 6km long and up to 3.5km wide (~18km²) sequence of mafic-ultramafic layered rocks. There is an abundance of unweathered rocks, in comparison to adjacent areas of the Carajás Mineral province, comprising predominantly massive blocks and boulders. The most prominent geomorphologic feature consists of an elongated arcshaped hill of mainly ultramafic units interlayered with mafic units. This hill is up to 60m higher than the surrounding flat areas of predominantly gabbroic rocks. Country rocks include highly foliated gneiss and migmatite of the Xingu Complex in the south/southeast and mafic volcanics and iron formations of the Grão Pará Group in the north/west (see figure below).

Several thin chromatite layers occur in the Luanga Complex, mainly in the upper and lower stratigraphic portions of the Transition Zone, where they are hosted by ultramafic cumulates, and through the immediate contact with the overlying Mafic Zone, where they are hosted by plagioclase-bearing norite cumulates. This stratigraphic interval consists of several cyclic units interpreted as the result of successive influxes of primitive magma.

While some PGE mineralization is hosted in chromatites, two other distinct styles of PGE mineralization occur in the Luanga Complex; (i) sulphide-related PGE mineralization and (ii) silicate-related PGE mineralization. PGE mineralization associated with sulphides hosts the bulk of PGE historical mineral resources of the Luanga Complex.

Mineralization

The following description of the mineralization at the Luanga Project has been compiled based on published peer reviewed academic papers in international journals (especially Mansur, E.T. – 2017).

Several thin chromatites layers occur in the Luanga Complex mainly in the upper and lower stratigraphic portions of the Transition Zone, where they are hosted by ultramafic cumulates, and through the immediate contact with the overlying

A-15

Mafic Zone, where they are hosted by plagioclase-bearing norite cumulates. This stratigraphic interval consists of several cyclic units interpreted as the result of successive influxes of primitive magma.

While some PGE mineralization is hosted in the chromatites, two main styles of PGE mineralization occur in the Luanga Complex are: (i) sulphide-related PGE mineralization (bulk of tonnage) and (ii) silicate-related PGE mineralization.

Deposit Types

The alternating magmatic layers and the stratabound nature of magmatic sulphide mineralization encountered at the Luanga Complex fit with the “reef” model of mineralization for layered mafic-ultramafic complexes such as Bushveld, Stillwater, Great Dyke, Penikat and the Skaergaard.

LMIs are significant sources of PGEs, base metal sulphides, chromatite, magnetite and ilmenite. These types of deposits (magmatic ore deposits) are derived from accumulations of crystal of metallic oxides, or immiscible sulphide, or oxide liquids that formed during the cooling and crystallization of magma, typically with mafic to ultramafic compositions, according Zientek, M.L., 2012. “PGE reefs” are stratabound PGE-enriched lode mineralization in mafic to ultramafic layered intrusions. The term “reef” is derived from Australian and South African literature for this style of mineralization and used to refer to (1) the rock layer that is mineralized and has distinctive texture or mineralogy or (2) the PGE-enriched sulphide mineralization that occurs within a rock layer.

The dominance of the Bushveld Complex in world-wide production of minerals related to mafic layered intrusions gives this intrusion an archetypal status in exploration and resource models for mafic intrusions.

Chart Summarizing Mineralization in a Variety of Layered Mafic Intrusions.

A schematic model of an LIP-related layered intrusion is presented below, showing the relative position and petrological affinities (e.g., chromatite vs. sulphide dominated; ultramafic vs. mafic; reef vs. contact styles of mineralization) of the differing types of LIP-related PGE-dominated magmatic sulphide deposits. A single layered intrusion is unlikely to host all

A-16

of these styles of mineralization, and that PGE deposits with differing magmatic affinities can occur in similar positions within an intrusive system.

Exploration

Exploration completed by Bravo in the prior 3 years totals C$211,264 , and included but was not limited to:

  • Re-location of Historic Drill Core (to 23 March 2022)

  • Orthophotography, Digital Elevation Model

  • Commencement of resampling programme: clean core, re-logging, core photography, cutting and sampling

  • Geophysics

  • Re-logging of Historic Core

  • Drilling

Bravo has started a comprehensive core re-logging and re-assaying program. The program includes assaying a more extensive suite of elements to assist with geological and mineral resource modelling. This will address historical data limitations such as a nickel assaying methodology that had a 5,000ppm (0.5%) upper limit, with numerous reported exceedances. Bravo has already completed re-sampling of 16 historic holes, for a total of 727 samples submitted for assay, inclusive of quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) samples. These samples were dispatched to an international laboratory company with a global spread of certified laboratories. Results are pending.

Drilling

Bravo commenced drilling at the Luanga Project on March 25, 2022. Work to date includes preparation of drill pads, surveying of drill hole locations, mobilization of the drill rigs, and the commencement of drilling in line with the recommended work program.

Drill hole locations and summary drill logs are shown below. Assay results are pending.

The drilling undertaken by Bravo so far in 2022 is part of the recommended program set out in the Luanga Report and no changes to the recommended program is warranted based on observations of the core received to the Effective Date of the

A-17

Luanga Report. To the Effective Date of the Luanga Report, 3 drill holes have been completed and 3 are in progress for a total of 352m showing the same lithologies (orthopyroxenites and harzburgites) and style of mineralization anticipated based on prior drilling by VALE SA. Drilling is by HQ sized diamond core from surface, until reaching competent fresh rock from where drilling is by NQ sized diamond core. Core recoveries are generally excellent, >95% in the fresh rock, 75% to 95% for oxidized rocks. Mineralization is finely and evenly disseminated, thus it is believed that there will be no nugget effects or issues affecting accuracy and reliability, as was the case in the historical core. Drill holes are drilled at the same dip and azimuth as historical drilling, with mineralization intersected at the same angle, and with mineralized widths repeating that seen in historical drilling. Given the orientation of the holes and the mineralization, the intercepts are estimated to range from ~70 to 100% of true thickness. Core is diamond sawed to ensure representativeness of samples, where sawing of the core leaves two identical halves. For all of these reasons, there have been no material changes to the geologic model, depth, thickness, sulphide abundance and style of mineralization or the proposed drill program. Assays are pending.

Sampling, Analysis and Data Verification

Metallurgical Testing

No metallurgical testing has been completed on the Luanga Project by the Company. For a summary of historical metallurgical testing on the Luanga Project, see “ Mineral Processing and Metallurgical Testing ” below.

Data Verification

Data verification activities carried out by the Authors included a site visit by Marlon Sarges Ferreira on the 13[th] and 14[th] of January 2022, accompanied by the Bravo team. This site visit included downloading and reviewing previous reports that described the historic exploration on the property and confirming that the described methods of work were completed to industry standards. The information obtained data from the various technical reports were verified on the site visit where possible.

During the site visit, four VALE SA drill collars located in the northern portion of the deposit in a section line. Drillholes LUFD-112, LUFD-0118, LUFD-0152 and LUFD-0195 were correlated with data in the historic VALE SA drill database.

The ranges of metapyroxenites, the principal lithology of interest that is reported to host the Pt+Pd+Au+Ni mineralization, were observed in the core boxes of holes LUFD-0018, LUFD-0059, LUFD-0131, LUFD-0132 and LUFD-0220. The drill

A-20

core is preserved in wooden boxes with original past identification and organized on shelves inside an enclosed area. The facility also includes core logging facilities.

On 21[st] to the 23[rd] of September 2020 Bravo had visited VALE SA’s core facilities where they collected five verification core samples from four historical drill holes. The verification samples were ¼ core from mineralized intervals previously sampled by VALE SA. Those samples were cut and bagged in VALE SA’s facilities by Bravo personnel, who were responsible for the identification (the same identification as the original sample) and shipping of the sample bags.

All samples were analysed for Pt, Pd, and Au by fire assay with ICP-AES finish, and for Rh by fire assay with ICP-MS finish. The samples also were analysed for 48 elements by four acid and ICP-MS finish.

Although a small number of samples, the correlation (r2=0.74 to Pd and r2=0.99 to Pt) between original assays and verification assays is considered acceptable.

The Authors reviewed the historical documents, made available by Bravo, including work on geochemistry, geophysics and geology completed by VALE SA and its consultants and laboratories, and believe the historical data reported in the Luanga Report aligns with the source data.

In the opinion of the Authors, VALE SA personnel have used care in the collection and management of the field and assaying exploration data. Based on reports and data available, the Authors have no reason to doubt the reliability of exploration information provided by VALE SA. The reports and analytical results suggest that analytical results delivered by the laboratories used by VALE SA are free of apparent bias.

Based on their review, the Authors believe these data are suitable for use in planning an expanded mineral exploration program that would include:

  • Surface mapping and soil/rock chip sampling of the Luanga property.

  • Re-logging and re-assaying historical VALE SA core.

  • Confirmatory twin hole drill program to validate the historical VALE SA drilling.

  • Drill program aimed at confirming and infilling the zones of historically defined mineralization.

Bravo will implement a rigorous best practice QA/QC program, and is currently in the process of appointing primary and secondary laboratories, which will be independent of Bravo and ISO-certified. Bravo will also use industry best practices in sample control and security, and in data control, security and back-up.

Mineral Processing and Metallurgical Testing

The Luanga Project is an intermediate stage exploration project and, as a result, historical metallurgical testwork has been limited to first pass (or fatal flaw) metallurgical testwork.

This testwork is early stage, however it indicates that a “saleable” Pd-Pt-Au-Ni +/- Rh concentrate could potentially be produced.

The focus of historical metallurgical testwork has been on samples from the Sulphide Zone, since this represents the bulk of the historic PGE mineralization identified at the Luanga Project. Work was performed at a number of facilities between 2002 to 2007 and can be summarised as follows:

  • Mintek, 2002

  • CDM (internal VALE SA lab), 2002-2004

  • SGS Lakefield, 2003-2004

Initial work by Mintek and CDM used a higher-grade sample (5.0g/t Pt+Pd+Au) from the Sulphide Zone. Metallurgical testwork by both companies demonstrated that recoveries of approximately 70% could be achieved using conventional milling, griding and froth flotation, similar to other sulphide PGE deposits.

A-21

Testwork subsequently carried out SGS Lakefield (Canada) on a lower grade 200kg sample from the Sulphide Zone, also indicated that recoveries of approximately 70%, with a concentrate from 0.78% of the fed mass grading 132 g/t PGE+Au. Internal work by CDM using the same sample also supported these results.

Mineral Resource Estimate

There are no current mineral resources on the Luanga Project. However, the prior owner VALE SA is reported to have completed a Historical Estimate, that was reported as 142Mt @ 1.24 g/t 3E (Pd + Pt + Au) + 0.11% Ni using a cut-off grade of 0.5 g/t PGE + Au (Mansur, E.T., Ferreira Filho, C.F., & Oliveira, D.P. (2020b). No breakdown of the individual metals contributing to this Historical Estimate has been published and no technical report related to this Historical Estimate is available to the Authors. As a result, aside from the information quoted above, nothing is known of the key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the Historical Estimate. Further, this Historical Estimate was not classified in accordance with the categories for a mineral resource that are required by NI 43-101. Since Bravo has just acquired the Luanga Project directly from VALE SA and has not conducted any work in estimating mineral resources, there are no more recent estimates or data available to the Authors. Despite these limitations, the Authors believe that this Historical Estimate is relevant to the reader’s understanding of the status of the Luanga Project and its future potential. Further, given that this estimate was prepared by VALE SA, a major mining company with global operations, it is likely to have been prepared to standards a reasonable person would use and is therefore considered reliable for the purposes of defining recommendations for future work. See Section 26 of the Luanga Report for the Authors’ recommendations as to the work that needs to be done to upgrade or verify the Historical Estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves.

A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the Historical Estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves under NI 43-101, and Bravo is not treating the Historical Estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. There can be no certainty, following further evaluation and/or exploration work, that the Historical Estimate can be upgraded or verified as mineral resources or mineral reserves in accordance with NI 43-101. Further, the assays values used to calculate the Nickel content in the Historical Estimate are total Nickel, and thus contain both sulphide Nickel (recoverable) and silicate Nickel (unrecoverable). It is unknown to Bravo whether or not the nickel content in the Historic Estimate has been modified to account for this.

Proposed Exploration and Recommendations

The Luanga deposit is interpreted as a Neo-Archean age PGE + Au + Ni +/- Rh +/- Co +/- Cu deposit hosted in mafic and ultramafic complex, approximately 7km by 3.5km. It is broadly similar in age and geological setting to some of the world’s major PGE deposits and producing mines.

The Luanga Project is characterized as a “suspended operation”, with extensive previous drilling, historical mineral resources and preliminary metallurgical test work.

Based on their evaluation of the Luanga Project as outlined in the Luanga Report, the Authors recommend additional work to (a) define a mineral resource estimate in accordance with NI 43-101, and (b) assess the metallurgical characteristics of the mineralization, in order to determine the potential economic viability of the deposit and define reasonable prospects for economic extraction.

While there is a lot of drilling data over a well-characterized mineralized trend whose litho-structural controls and geological context are well known, this data is historical in nature and was completed by VALE SA. It is therefore recommended that Bravo:

  1. Undertake a reassessment of the data collected in previous research campaigns, including drilling of twin holes and other geostatistically supported approaches that would confirm the grades and thicknesses of mineralization and the assay results obtained in the previous campaigns;

  2. Classify or reclassify mineralization and lithologies to support evaluation of both potential bulk tonnage mining and processing, or more selective extraction of higher-grade mineralization by either open pit and/or underground methods, if warranted;

A-22

  1. Conduct infill drilling to define a mineral resource estimate for the Luanga Project in accordance with NI 43101, including demonstrating reasonable prospects for economic extraction, with sufficient flexibility to support the evaluation of both bulk-tonnage and more selective mining methods;

  2. Undertake mineralogical and metallurgical studies to demonstrate the potential recoveries and subsequent economic extraction of payable metals, such as in support of the production of concentrates for export or in support of secondary processing;

  3. Conduct exploration, including drilling, to evaluate the potential for mineralization to be expanded to depth and along strike, and to potentially discover additional mineralized zones; and

  4. Preparation of an updated technical report, including a mineral resource estimate.

The recommended two-phase work program is summarized below. The Phase 2 program is dependent on the results received in the Phase 1 program.

BRAVO MINING CORP. (Formerly BPG Metals Corp.)

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020, AND FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2022 AND 2021

(EXPRESSED IN UNITED STATES DOLLARS)

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

To the Shareholders of Bravo Mining Corp.

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Bravo Mining Corp. (formerly BPG Metals Corp. (the Entity), which comprise:

  • the consolidated statement of financial position as at March 31, 2022

  • the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive income (loss) from the date of incorporation on January 1, 2022 to March 31, 2022

  • the consolidated statement of changes in shareholders’ equity (deficiency) for the period from incorporation on January 1, 2022 to March 31, 2022

  • the consolidated statement of cash flows for the period from incorporation on January 1, 2022 to March 31, 2022

  • and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies

(Hereinafter referred to as the “financial statements”).

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Entity as at March 31, 2022, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the period from incorporation on January 1, 2022 to March 31, 2022 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the “ Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements ” section of our auditors’ report.

We are independent of the Entity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Canada and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

We draw attention to Note 1 in the financial statements, which indicates that the continuing operations of the Company are dependent on its ability to continue to raise adequate financing and to commence profitable operations in the future and repay its liabilities arising from normal operations as they come due.

As stated in Note 1 in the financial statements, these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1 in the financial statements, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Entity's ability to continue as a going concern.

Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Other Matter

The consolidated financial statements of the Entity as at and for the year ended December 31, 2021, as at December 31, 2020 and for the period from incorporation on May 19, 2020 to

December 31, 2020 and as at March 31, 2021 and for the period from January 1, 2021 to March 31, 2021 were audited by another auditor who expressed unmodified opinions on each of those consolidated financial statements on January 14, 2022.

Other Information

Management is responsible for the other information. Other information comprises:

  • the information included in Management’s Discussion and Analysis filed with the relevant Canadian Securities Commissions.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not and will not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit and remain alert for indications that the other information appears to be materially misstated.

We obtained the information included in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis filed with the relevant Canadian Securities Commissions as at the date of this auditor’s report.

If, based on the work we have performed on this other information, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact in the auditors’ report.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for

the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Entity or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Entity’s financial reporting process.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion.

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Entity's internal control.

  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  • Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Entity's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Entity to cease to continue as a going concern.

  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  • Communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

  • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the group Entity to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

Bravo Mining Corp. (formerly BPG Metals Corp.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 and the periods ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. (Expressed in United States Dollars)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

BPGM Metals Corp. was incorporated on January 1, 2022, under the laws of British Columbia. On January 5, 2022, the name of the entity was changed to BPG Metals Corp. and to “Bravo Mining Corp.” on May 19, 2022 (the “Company” or “Bravo”).

As described in Note 8, the Company completed the acquisition of BPGM Mineração Ltda. ("Mineração") through a share exchange agreement (the “Acquisition”) whereby the Company purchased indirectly all of the issued and outstanding shares of Mineração through the issuance of 52,000,000 common shares of the Company. The former indirect shareholders of Mineração became the controlling shareholders of the Company and, as such, the transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition of Bravo by Mineração for accounting purposes (“RTO”). Bravo Mining Corp. and Mineração are controlled by the same beneficial shareholder both before and after the transaction. The historical figures for the periods ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 presented in these consolidated financial statements represent those of Mineração. The acquired assets and liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of the Company are reflected only for periods from the acquisition date at the closing of the RTO on February 16, 2022.

The Company is primarily engaged in the business of acquiring, exploring and, if warranted, developing and operating mineral properties in Brazil. The Company has obtained required permits in Brazil for current activities and expects to obtain permits for future proposed work on the Luanga Project.

The Company’s head office is located at Av. Jornalista Ricardo Marinho, n. 360, room 111, Barra da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil, Zip code 22631-350 and its registered office is located at Bentall 5, 550 Burrard Street, Suite 1008, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 2B5.

Going Concern

In order to carry out future exploration activities, the Company will need to raise additional financing. Although the Company has been successful in raising funds to date, there can be no assurance that adequate funding will be available in the future, or available under terms favourable to the Company.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company is exploration-focused and is subject to the risks and challenges of companies in the same sector. These risks include, but are not limited to, the challenges of securing adequate capital given exploration, development and operational risks inherent in the mining industry as well as global economic, precious and base metal price volatility; all of which are uncertain under current market conditions. As a result of these risks, there is no assurance that the Company's funding initiatives will continue to be successful. The Company has incurred a net loss of $269,183 and $595, respectively from January 1, 2022 to March 31, 2022 and January 1, 2021 to March 31, 2021, respectively and has an accumulated deficit of $286,746 as at March 31, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company has incurred a net loss of $17,563 and has an accumulated deficit of $17,563 as at December 31, 2021. The continuing operations of the Company are dependent on its ability to continue to raise adequate financing and to commence profitable operations in the future and repay its liabilities arising from normal operations as they come due. These conditions indicate that material uncertainties exist that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

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

Bravo Mining Corp. (formerly BPG Metals Corp.) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 and the periods ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. (Expressed in United States Dollars)

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

(a) Statement of Compliance

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards using accounting policies consistent with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). The interim financial statements as at March 31, 2022 and for the three month periods ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, Interim financial reporting .

Up to the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements, the Company has not issued any consolidated financial statements. Therefore, there is no previous GAAP as defined by IFRS 1. Accordingly, IFRS 1 allows first-time adopters certain optional exemptions and mandatory exceptions from the general requirements contained in IFRS. The Company has not applied any mandatory exemption nor optional exemptions. As discussed in note 1, these consolidated financial statements are a continuation of Mineração.

The transition of the Company's consolidated financial statements to IFRS has been carried out by applying IFRS 1: First-Time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, taking January 1, 2022 as the beginning of the last comparative period presented under IFRS. This date is considered to be the IFRS transition date. The Company prepared its opening IFRS statement of financial position as of that date. The Company previously prepared financial information conforming with IFRS, there were no reconciliation differences between the Company's accounting policies and IFRS.

The policies set out below have been consistently applied to all the periods presented. The statements were approved and authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on June [●], 2022.

(b) Basis of consolidation

These consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company's subsidiaries are outlined below:

Subsidiaries Place of incorporation Percentage ownership
BPGM Holding Ltd. British Virgin Islands 100%
BPGM Brasil Ltd. British Virgin Islands 100%
BPGM Mineração Ltda. Brazil 100%

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Company obtains control, and continues to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases. Control is achieved when an investor has power over an investee to direct its activities, exposure to variable returns from an investee, and the ability to use the power to affect the investor's returns.

The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period presented are included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss from the effective date of control and up to the effective date of disposal or loss of control, as appropriate. All intercompany transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated upon consolidation.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED)

(c) Basis of Measurement

The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for financial instruments classified at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL") which are stated at fair values. The accounting policies have been applied consistently throughout all periods presented in these financial statements.

(d) Foreign Currency Translation

The financial statements are presented in United Stated dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company, BPGM Holding Ltd., and BPGM Brasil Ltd. The functional currency of BPGM Mineração Ltda. is the Brazilian Real.

Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the entity using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or revaluation where items are re-measured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations in “office and administrative".

(e) Use of Estimates and Judgment

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to select accounting policies and make estimates and judgments that may have a significant impact on the financial statements. Estimates are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual outcomes can differ from these estimates.

Critical judgments exercised in applying accounting policies, apart from those involving estimates, that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements are as follows:

Economic recoverability and probability of future economic benefits of mining rights

The Company has determined that mining rights, and related costs incurred, which are capitalized, have future economic benefits and are economically recoverable. In making this judgmental, the Company has assessed various sources of information including, but not limited to, the geologic and metallurgic information, history of conversion of mineral deposits to proven and probable reserves, scoping and feasibility studies, proximity to existing ore bodies, existing permits, and life of mine plans.

Mining rights, property, plant and equipment

Title to mineral properties involves certain inherent risks due to the difficulties of determining the validity of certain claims as well as the potential for problems arising from the frequently ambiguous conveyancing historical characteristic of many properties. The Company has investigated title to all of its mining rights and all of its properties is in good standing.

Going concern

Significant judgments are used in the Company’s assessment of its ability to continue as a going concern as described in note 1.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED)

(e) Use of Estimates and Judgment (continued)

Impairment of mineral properties, plant and equipment

Management considers both external and internal sources of information in assessing whether there are any indications that the Company’s mineral properties, plant and equipment are impaired and whether previously recorded impairments should be reversed. External sources of information management considers includes changes in the market, economic and legal environment in which the Company operates that are not within its control and affect the recoverable amount of its mineral properties, plant and equipment. Internal sources of information that management considers include the manner in which mineral properties, plant and equipment are being used or are expected to be used and indications of economic performance of the assets.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and term deposits, together with other short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

(b) Exploration and evaluation expenditures

Exploration and evaluation assets include mining rights

Exploration and evaluation costs, including the cost of acquiring licenses, are capitalized as exploration and evaluation assets on a project-by-project basis pending determination of the technical feasibility and the commercial viability of the project. The capitalized costs are presented as either tangible or intangible exploration and evaluation assets according to the nature of the assets acquired. Capitalized costs include costs directly related to exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest. General and administrative costs are only allocated to the asset to the extent that those costs can be directly related to operational activities in the relevant area of interest. When a license is relinquished or a project is abandoned, the related costs are recognized in net loss immediately.

Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment if (i) sufficient data exists to determine technical feasibility and commercial viability, and (ii) fact and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount (see Impairment).

The technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource is considered to be determinable when proven reserves are determined to exist, the rights of tenure are current and it is considered probable that the costs will be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area, or alternatively by sale of the property. Upon determination of proven reserves, intangible exploration and evaluation assets attributable to those reserves are first tested for impairment and then reclassified from exploration and evaluation assets to a separate category within tangible assets. Expenditures deemed to be unsuccessful are recognized in net loss immediately. The Company capitalizes all costs to defend title of its mining interests.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(c) Property, Plant and Equipment

Plant and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation, amortization and impairment charges, if any. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition and are recorded as part of the development and construction of the asset. Costs to acquire mineral properties are capitalized and represent the property’s fair value at the time it was acquired, either as an individual asset purchase or as part of a business combination.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of a replaced part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance costs are charged to the consolidated statement of operations during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation of plant and equipment and other assets is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life of computers is 5 years and 10 years for all other items included in property, plant and equipment.

The Company allocates the amount initially recognized in respect of an item of property, plant and equipment to its significant components and depreciates each component separately. The residual values and useful lives of the assets are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

(d) Income taxes

Income tax on the profit or loss for the period presented comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity.

Current tax expense is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the period, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at period end, adjusted for amendments to tax payable with regards to previous periods.

Deferred tax is recorded for temporary differences, between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred income taxes are recorded to recognize tax benefits only to the extent, based on available evidence, that it is probable that they will be realized. The following temporary differences are not provided for: goodwill not deductible for tax purposes; and the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable loss.

The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates expected to be applied to temporary differences which may reverse, based on tax laws, enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(e) Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares of the Company outstanding during the period.

Provided that they are not anti-dilutive, diluted earnings per share amounts are calculated giving effect to the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted to common shares using the treasury stock method. This method assumes that proceeds received from the exercise of stock options and warrants and any unamortized share-based compensation amounts are used to repurchase common shares at the prevailing market rate.

(f) Share capital

Common shares are classified as equity. Transaction costs directly attributable to the issuance of common shares and share warrants are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

(g) Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) that has arisen as a result of a past event and it is probable that a future outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, provided that a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risk specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognized as interest expense.

(h) Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument.

Below is a summary showing the classification and measurement bases of the Company’s financial instruments.

Classification IFRS 9
Cash and cash equivalents
Sales tax recoverable
Accounts payable and other liabilities
Taxespayable
FVTPL
Amortized Cost
Amortized Cost
Amortized Cost

Financial assets

Financial assets are classified as either financial assets at FVTPL, amortized cost, or FVTOCI. The Company determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.

Financial assets recorded at FVTPL

Financial assets are classified as FVTPL if they do not meet the criteria of amortized cost or FVTOCI. Gains or losses on these items are recognized in profit or loss.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(h) Financial instruments (continued)

Investments recorded at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)

On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Company may irrevocably elect to measure the investment at FVOCI whereby changes in the investment’s fair value (realized and unrealized) will be recognized permanently in OCI with no reclassification to profit or loss. The election is made on an investment-by- investment basis.

Amortized cost

Financial assets are classified as measured at amortized cost if both of the following criteria are met and the financial assets are not designated as at FVTPL: 1) the object of the Company’s business model for these financial assets is to collect their contractual cash flows, and 2) the asset’s contractual cash flows represent "solely payments of principal and interest".

Financial liabilities

Financial assets are classified according to their contractual cash flow characteristics and the business models under which they are held. On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as: amortized cost, fair value through profit and loss (“FVTPL”) or fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”).

Financial assets are measured at amortized cost if both of the following criteria are met, and the financial assets are not designated as at FVTPL: 1) the objective of the Company’s business model is to collect the contractual cash flows; and 2) the asset’s contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Company may irrevocably elect to measure the investment at FVOCI whereby changes in the investment’s fair value (realized and unrealized) will be recognized permanently in other comprehensive income with no reclassification to profit and loss. The election is made on an investment-by-investment basis.

All financial assets not measured at amortized cost or FVOCI are measured at FVTPL. On initial recognition, a financial asset that otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortized cost or FVOCI may be irrevocably designated as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise. Derivative financial assets are measured at FVTPL.

Financial liabilities are subsequently measured and classified as amortized cost or as FVTPL. Derivative financial liabilities are measured at FVTPL. The Company, at initial recognition, may designate a hybrid financial liability that contains embedded derivative financial instruments, at FVTPL. For such financial liabilities recorded at FVTPL, the change in fair value due to changes in the Company’s credit risk is recorded in other comprehensive income, with the remainder of the change in fair value recorded in profit and loss.

Financial instruments are measured on initial recognition at fair value, plus, in the case of financial instruments other than those classified as FVTPL, directly attributable transaction costs. Measurement of financial assets in subsequent periods depends on whether the financial asset has been classified as amortized cost, FVTPL or FVOCI. The carrying amount of financial liabilities subsequent to initial recognition depends on whether they are classified as amortized cost or FVTPL. Financial assets and financial liabilities classified as amortized cost are accounted for subsequent to initial recognition using the effective interest method.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(h) Financial instruments (continued)

Financial liabilities (continued)

Loss allowances for “expected credit losses” are recognized on financial assets measured at amortized cost, contract assets and investments in debt instruments measured at FVOCI, but not to equity investments. A loss event is not required to have occurred before a credit loss is recognized.

The Company has assessed the classification and measurement of its financial assets and financial liabilities as follows:

Classification category

Cash and cash equivalents Amortized cost Cash in escrow Amortized cost Accounts receivable Amortized cost Due to related party Amortized cost Accounts payable and accrued liabilities Amortized cost

Fair value hierarchy:

The Company classifies financial assets and liabilities that are recognized in the statement of financial position at fair value in a hierarchy that is based on significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The levels in the hierarchy are:

  • Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

  • Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices); and

  • Level 3 - Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs).

As at March 31, 2022, the Company did not hold financial instruments recorded at fair value that would require classification within the fair value hierarchy, except for cash and cash equivalents (Level 1). The carrying value of the financial instruments noted above approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of accounts payable and other liabilities also approximates its fair value.

(i) Impairment

Financial assets

At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired using an expected credit loss impairment model. The Company’s financial assets are comprised primarily of amounts receivable from one customer for which there is no history of default. If such evidence exists, the Company recognizes an impairment loss. Impairment losses on financial assets carried at amortized cost are reversed in subsequent periods if the amount of the loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(i) Impairment (continued)

Non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the Company’s non-financial assets, other than deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.

When circumstances or events indicate that impairment may exist, resource property costs are tested for impairment and the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets with finite lives to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. Where such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs of disposal or its value in use. An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). The Company has identified the following cash-generating unit: the Luanga Project.

Management reviews the following industry-specific indicators for an impairment review when evaluating resource property costs:

  • Exploration activities have ceased;

  • Exploration results are not promising such that exploration will not be planned for the foreseeable future;

  • Lease ownership rights expire;

  • Sufficient funding is not expected to be available to complete the mineral exploration program; or

  • An exploration property has no material economic value to the Company’s business plan.

Management takes into consideration various information including, but not limited to, results of exploration activities conducted to date, estimated future mineral prices, and reports and opinions of outside geologists, mine engineers and consultants.

Impairment losses recognized in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, if no impairment loss had been recognized.

(j) Accounting standards adopted

Amendment to IAS 16 - Property, Plant and Equipment

In 2020, the IASB published Property, Plant and Equipment - Proceeds before Intended Use (Amendments to IAS 16) (“IAS 16 amendments”) which applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022, with earlier application permitted. The Company has assessed the impact of the amendments and concluded there is no material impact on the Company's financial statements.

These IAS 16 amendments prohibit the deduction from the cost of an item of property, plant and equipment any net proceeds received from the sale of items produced while bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Instead, the Company recognizes the proceeds from the sale of such items, and the cost of producing those items in the condensed consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(k) Accounting standards issued but not yet effective

Future accounting policies

The standards and interpretations that are issued, but not yet effective, up to the date of issuance of the Company’s Financial Statements that the Company reasonably expects will have an impact on its disclosures, financial position or performance when applied at a future date, are disclosed below. The Company intends to adopt these standards, if applicable, when they become effective.

Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current (Amendments to IAS 1)

The IASB has published Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current (Amendments to IAS 1) which clarifies the guidance on whether a liability should be classified as either current or non-current. The amendments:

  • clarify that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current should only be based on rights that are in place "at the end of the reporting period"

  • clarify that classification is unaffected by expectations about whether an entity will exercise its right to defer settlement of a liability; and

  • make clear that settlement includes transfers to the counterparty of cash, equity instruments, other assets or services that result in extinguishments of the liability.

This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. There is currently a proposal in place to extend effective date for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024. Earlier application is permitted. The extent of the impact of adoption of this amendment has not yet been determined.

Definition of Accounting Estimates – Amendments to IAS 8

In February 2021, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 8, in which it introduced a definition of ‘accounting estimates’. The amendments clarify the distinction between changes in accounting estimates and changes in accounting policies and the correction of errors. Also, they clarify how entities use measurement techniques and inputs to develop accounting estimates. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, and apply to changes in accounting policies and accounting estimates that occur on or after the start of that period. Earlier application is permitted as long as this fact is disclosed.

The amendments are not expected to have a material impact on the Company.

Disclosure of Accounting Policies - Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2

In February 2021, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgments, in which it provides guidance and examples to help entities apply materiality judgments to accounting policy disclosures. The amendments aim to help entities provide accounting policy disclosures that are more useful by replacing the requirement for entities to disclose their ‘significant’ accounting policies with a requirement to disclose their ‘material’ accounting policies and adding guidance on how entities apply the concept of materiality in making decisions about accounting policy disclosures. The amendments to IAS 1 are applicable for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with earlier application permitted. Since the amendments to the Practice Statement 2 provide non-mandatory guidance on the application of the definition of material to accounting policy information, an effective date for these amendments is not necessary. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the amendments to determine the impact they will have on the Company’s accounting policy disclosures.

Future accounting policies (continued)

Amendments to IAS 12 Income taxes

Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction clarifies the accounting for deferred tax on transactions such as leases and decommissioning obligations by removing the initial recognition exemption for transactions in which equal amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences arise on initial recognition. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023.

4. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company manages its exposure to a number of different financial risks arising from operations as well as from the use of financial instruments, including market risks (foreign currency exchange rate and interest rate), credit risk and liquidity risk, through its risk management strategy. The objective of the strategy is to support the delivery of the Company's financial targets while protecting its future financial security and flexibility. Financial risks are primarily managed and monitored through operating and financing activities. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments. The financial risks are evaluated regularly with due consideration to changes in key economic indicators and to up-to-date market information. The Company’s risk exposures and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below:

(a) Credit Risk

Credit risk is the financial risk of non-performance of a contracted counter party. The Company's credit risk is primarily attributable to cash and cash equivalents. The Company reduces its credit risk by maintaining its cash with reputable financial institutions.

(b) Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations associated with financial liabilities as they come due. The Company’s investment policy is to invest its excess cash in high grade investment securities with varying terms to maturity, selected with regard to the expected timing of expenditures for continuing operations. The Company monitors its liquidity position and budgets future expenditures, in order to ensure that it will have sufficient capital to satisfy liabilities as they come due.

As at March 31, 2022, the Company had current liabilities of $187,139 and had cash of $5,072,745 to meet its current obligations (see note 1 for going concern). The Company regularly evaluates its cash position to ensure preservation and security of capital as well as maintenance of liquidity.

(c) Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Company has no significant risk to future cash flows from interest rate risk. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk.

Foreign Exchange Risk

Bravo is exposed to foreign currency risk on fluctuations related to cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses, tax recoverable, taxes payable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, denominated in Brazilian Real. A 10% fluctuation

between the US dollar and the Brazilian real would impact profit or loss by approximately $11,802 (2021 - $9,877).

5. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Company considers its capital to be shareholders’ equity which comprises share capital, shares to be issued, contributed surplus and deficit, which as at March 31, 2022, totaled an equity of $5,693,457 (December 31, 2021 - $495,730; December 31, 2020 - $nil).

The Company's objective when managing capital is to maintain adequate levels of funding to support its exploration activities and to maintain corporate and administrative functions necessary to support operational activities.

The Company manages its capital structure in a manner that provides sufficient funding for operational activities. Funds are primarily secured through equity capital raised by way of private placements. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue raising equity capital in the future.

The Company invests all capital that is surplus to its immediate operational needs in short-term, liquid and highly rated financial instruments, such as cash and other short-term guaranteed deposits, and all are held in major financial institutions. There were no changes to the Company's approach to capital risk management during the year.

Description of Business

The Company was incorporated on January 1, 2022 under the laws of British Columbia, as BPGM Metals Corp. The Company changed its name to “BPG Metals Corp.” on January 5, 2022 and to “Bravo Mining Corp.” on May 19, 2022.

On February 16, 2022, the Company issued 52,000,000 Common Shares as consideration for the acquisition of BPGM Mineração Ltda. ("Mineração"). The acquisition was accounted for as a reverse

P a g e | 3

Bravo Mining Corp. (formerly BPG Metals Corp.) Management’s Discussion & Analysis Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 Dated: July [●], 2022

takeover ("RTO") whereby Mineração was identified as the acquirer for accounting purposes and the resulting entity is presented as a continuance of Mineração. After the RTO, the combined entity of Bravo and its wholly owned subsidiaries are referred to as "the Company" in this MD&A.

The Company is a mineral exploration company focused on the exploration and development of the Luanga Project, a platinum group element (“PGE”), gold and nickel project located in the Carajás Mineral Province, Pará State, Brazil, that is comprised of a 7,810 hectares mining exploration licence. The Luanga Project is the Company’s only material property. The Company holds its interest in the Luanga Project through its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, Mineração. Mineração holds 100% right, title and interest in the Luanga Project, subject to royalty interests held by Vale SA, (“Vale”) a major Brazilian mining company and the original owner of the Luanga Project, and Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social (“BNDES”), a Brazilian government business Development Bank. Mineração acquired its interest in the Luanga Project from Vale in consideration for aggregate payments of US$1.3 million (of which US$300,000 has been paid to Vale as of the date of the Prospectus) and the grant of a 1.0% net smelter returns royalty on the Luanga Project to Vale and a 2.0% royalty on the net operating revenue generated by the production of platinum concentrate on the Luanga Project to BNDES.

The Company’s head office is located at Av. Jornalista Ricardo Marinho, n. 360, room 111, Barra da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil, Zip code 22631-350 and its registered office is located at Bentall 5, 550 Burrard Street, Suite 1008, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 2B5.

The Company is presently pursuing a listing on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") in connection with the Offering.

The Company has no revenues, so its ability to ensure continuing operations is dependent on the discovery of economically recoverable mineral resources and mineral reserves, confirmation of its interest in the underlying mineral claims, and its ability to obtain necessary financing to complete the exploration activities, development, if they are proven successful, and future profitable production.

Bravo’s goal is to deliver superior returns to shareholders by concentrating on the acquisition, exploration and, if warranted, development and operation of mining properties. The Company currently plans to focus on the exploration and development of the Luanga Project, as set out below under “Mineral Property Interests”.

The Company will continue to need to raise capital to meet its ongoing operating activities.

Outlook and Economic Conditions

The Company is a mineral exploration company, focused on exploring its current property interests, and on acquisitions of other mineral exploration properties, should such acquisitions be consistent with its objectives and acquisition criteria. The Company currently has operations in Brazil. The Company’s financial success will be dependent upon the extent to which it can define and/or make discoveries of mineral deposits and on the economic viability of any such deposits. The development of such assets may take years to complete and the resulting income, if any, is difficult to determine with any certainty. To date, the Company has not produced any revenues. The sales value of any minerals defined and/or discovered by the Company is largely dependent upon factors beyond its control, such as the market value of the commodities produced.

There are significant uncertainties regarding the prices of base and precious metal and the availability of equity financing for the purposes of exploration and evaluation. The future performance of the Company is largely tied to the successful exploration, discovery and eventual development of its property interests, if

P a g e | 4

Bravo Mining Corp. (formerly BPG Metals Corp.) Management’s Discussion & Analysis Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 Dated: July [●], 2022

they are proven successful, and other prospective business opportunities and the overall financial markets. Financial markets are likely to be volatile, reflecting ongoing concerns about the stability of the global economy.

Management regularly monitors economic conditions, estimates their impact on the Company’s operations, and incorporates these estimates in both short-term operating and longer-term strategic decisions.

Highlights

  • (a) On October 13, 2020, the Company´s subsidiary, Mineração, entered into a definitive agreement (the “Agreement”) with Vale to acquire 100% of the mineral rights in the Luanga Project, registered with the Brazilian National Mining Agency (“ANM”) with the number 851.966/92, and located in Carajás region, Pará State, Brazil. On November 12, 2021, Mineração paid $300,000 in accordance with the Agreement and a 100% interest in such property may be acquired by making additional payments totalling $500,000 on or before November 12, 2022 and $500,000 on or before November 12, 2023. Vale retains a 1% net smelter royalty. The transaction was approved by the ANM on November 29, 2021. Mineração may terminate the Agreement at any time, upon notification to Vale.

BNDES, a Brazilian governmental development bank, holds a royalty interest in the Luanga Project. Mineração must pay annually to BNDES a 2% royalty on the net operating revenue generated by the production of platinum concentrate.

Overall Objective

The primary business objective of the Company is the acquisition, exploration and evaluation of mineral properties in Brazil and, if warranted, their development and operation. In furtherance of this objective, the Company established the following business strategy:

  • Develop and implement a discretionary exploration budget on its property interests with a view to establishing a viable mineral deposit; and

  • Capitalize on management's technical expertise and ability to identify, evaluate, and acquire exploration properties.

See “Risks and Uncertainties” below.

Mineral Property Interests

The Company commissioned a Technical Report for its Luanga platinum group element + gold + nickel project, titled “Independent Technical Report for the Luanga PGE + Au + Ni Project, Para State, Brazil” dated May 29, 2022, with an effective date of April 12, 2022, that outlined a two-phase work program totaling US$30.15 million. The Company intends to complete the Phase 1 work program and, subject to the results of the Phase 1 work, the Phase 2 work program as recommended by the Technical Report. The Phase 1 work program consists primarily of validation of previous data, mineral resource estimation, exploratory drilling, metallurgical studies and preparation of an updated technical report, and is estimated to cost US$16.15 million and is expected to be completed by Q1 2023. The Phase 2 work program consists primarily of mineral resource estimation, exploratory drilling, metallurgical studies and preparation of an updated technical report, and is estimated to cost US$14 million and completed by Q1 2024.

Work to implement the recommendations of the Technical Report commenced in the current quarter and, by March 31, 2022, minimal work had been completed, including relocating some of the historical core to site and commencing relogging, site preparation for drilling and hiring of staff to support the work program. Project expenditures during the quarter totalled US$224,829, and the anticipated timing and costs for the Project remain unchanged from those set out in the Technical Report.

See “General Development and Business of the Company” and “Use of Proceeds and Available Funds” in the Prospectus for further details relating to the Company’s plan and milestones for the Luanga Project,

RTO

On February 9, 2022, the Company entered into the Share Exchange Agreement with the shareholders of Mineração. Under the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, Mineração’s shareholders exchanged their common shares for 52,000,000 Common Shares of the Company. The transaction was completed on February 16, 2022. This transaction is considered a related party transaction as it involves a shareholder of the Company. The percentage of ownership the Company’s shareholders had in the combined entity was approximately 16% after the issue of 52,000,000 Common Shares to the former Mineração shareholders. The following table represents the share capital of each company prior to the RTO:

In accordance with IFRS 3 – Business Combinations , the substance of the transaction is a reverse takeover of a non-operating company. The transaction does not constitute a business combination as BPG Metals Corp. (as the Company then was) does not meet the definition of a business under the standard. As a result, the transaction is accounted for as a capital transaction with Mineração being identified as the acquirer and the equity consideration being measured at fair value. The resulting consolidated statement of financial position is presented as a continuance of Mineração.

On February 16, 2022, the RTO was completed. The fair value of the consideration in the RTO was equivalent to the identifiable net assets acquired.

Financial Highlights

Financial Performance

The Company’s net loss totalled $269,183 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, with basic and diluted loss per share of $0.01, compared to a net loss of $595 with basic and diluted loss per share of $0.00 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase of $268,588 was principally because:

  • During the three months ended March 31, 2022, professional fees increased by $149,822 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, due to the increased accounting, audit and legal fees incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

  • During the three months ended March 31, 2022, office and administrative expenses increased by $71,973 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, due to the increased administrative activity including travel and people hiring and management in the three months ended March 31, 2022.

  • During the three months ended March 31, 2022, consulting fees increased by $20,758 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. This is due to fees paid to the President and Chief Financial Officer, and services received for strategic advice on Canadian capital markets and opportunities in the junior mining exploration sector, which occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

  • During the three months ended March 31, 2022, travel costs increased by $13,832 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, due to several trips to the site made in connection with the evaluation of the Luanga Project, preparing the site to exploration works, and the preparation of the Technical Report.

  • During the three months ended March 31, 2022, filing and listing fees increased by $11,934 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, due to ongoing fees related to the Offering and proposed TSXV listing incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Total assets

Assets were $5,880,596 on March 31, 2022 (December 31, 2021 - $497,827), an increase of $5,382,769, with cash and cash equivalents making up 86% (December 31, 2021 – 20%), exploration and evaluation assets, which only includes the Luanga Project, making up 10% (December 31, 2021 – 78%), and property, plant and equipment making up 3% (December 31, 2021 – 1%) of total assets. On March 31, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $5,072,745 (December 31, 2021 - $98,186), an increase of $4,974,559 mainly due to proceeds from the February 17, 2022 private placement raising $5,000,000 offset by payments of professional fees, office and administrative, consulting, travel and filing and listing fees.

Total liabilities

As of March 31, 2022, liabilities were $187,139 (December 31, 2021 - $2,097). The variation is primarily the result of fluctuations in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, which are usually paid as and when they become due.

Cash Flow

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had a cash balance of $5,072,745 (compared to $98,186 as at December 31, 2021). The increase in cash of $4,974,559 from the December 31, 2021 cash balance was a result of cash inflow from financing activities of $5,502,823, cash outflow in operating activities of

P a g e | 10

Bravo Mining Corp. (formerly BPG Metals Corp.) Management’s Discussion & Analysis Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 Dated: July [●], 2022

$141,092, and cash outflows in investing activities of $387,172. On March 31, 2021, the Company had no cash.

Operating activities were affected by net loss of $269,183, non-cash working capital items of $14,315, and offset by non-cash adjustments of $113,776. Non-cash working capital balances consisted of an increase in sales tax recoverable of $4,345, an increase in prepaid expenses of $16,962, and offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $133,630 and taxes payable of $1,453.

Financing activities were affected by proceeds from issuance of Common Shares of $1,285,000, and cash acquired on RTO of $4,217,823.

Investing activities included the purchase of property, plant and equipment of $163,385 and additions to exploration and evaluation assets of $224,829.

There are no commitments, events, risks or uncertainties, other than listed below in “Risks and Uncertainties” that the Company believes will materially affect the Company’s future performance including revenue, profit or loss from continuing operations.

Liquidity and Financial Position

The activities of the Company, principally the acquisition, exploration, and evaluation of mineral properties, are financed through equity from shareholders. The Company continues to seek capital through various means including the issuance of equity and/or debt.

The Company has no operating revenues and therefore must utilize its current cash reserves and other financing transactions to maintain its capacity to meet ongoing discretionary and committed exploration and operating activities.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had a working capital surplus of $4,909,594 (December 31, 2021 – working capital surplus of $98,770).

Subsequent to the quarter end, on April 26, 2022, the Company received the aggregate gross proceeds of $3,000,000 from the issuance of 6,000,000 Common Shares.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company has no debt. Its credit and interest rate risk are minimal and amounts payable and other liabilities are short term and non-interest bearing.

The Company is an exploration stage company and has not generated cash flow from operations. As at March 31, 2022, the Company had negative cash flow from operating activities. The Company expects to continue to incur negative operating cash flow and losses for the foreseeable future. To the extent that the Company has negative operating cash flow in future periods, it will need to allocate a portion of its cash to fund such negative cash flow. If the Company experiences future negative cash flow, the Company may also be required to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or debt securities. See “Risks and Uncertainties” section below.

Trends

Management regularly monitors economic conditions and estimates their impact on the Company’s operations and incorporates these estimates in both short-term operating and longer-term strategic decisions. Strong equity markets are favorable conditions for completing a public merger, financing, or acquisition transaction. Apart from these and the risk factors noted under the heading “Risks and Uncertainties”, and “Outlook and Economic Conditions”, management is not aware of any other trends,

P a g e | 11

commitments, events, or uncertainties that would have a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements

As of the date of this MD&A, the Company does not have any off-balance-sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on the results of operations or financial condition of the Company, including, and without limitation, such considerations as liquidity, capital expenditures and capital resources that would be material to investors.

(a) Key Management Personnel include those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company as a whole. The Company has determined that key management personnel consist of executive and, from an accounting perspective, non-executive members of the Company’s Board of Directors and corporate officers.

(b) During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company paid consulting fees of $10,081 to the president ("President") of the Company.

As at March 31, 2022, the President was owed $904 (December 31, 2021 - $nil) and this amount was included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

(c) During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company paid consulting fees of $6,049 to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company. These expenses are included in consulting fees.

Financial Instruments

The Company manages its exposure to a number of different financial risks arising from operations as well as from the use of financial instruments, including market risks (foreign currency exchange rate and interest rate), credit risk and liquidity risk, through its risk management strategy. The objective of the strategy is to support the delivery of the Company's financial targets while protecting its future financial security and flexibility. Financial risks are primarily managed and monitored through operating and financing activities.

P a g e | 12

Bravo Mining Corp. (formerly BPG Metals Corp.) Management’s Discussion & Analysis Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 Dated: July [●], 2022

The Company does not use derivative financial instruments. The financial risks are evaluated regularly with due consideration to changes in key economic indicators and to up-to-date market information. The Company’s risk exposures and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the financial risk of non-performance of a contracted counter party. The Company's credit risk is primarily attributable to cash and cash equivalents. The Company reduces its credit risk by maintaining its cash with reputable financial institutions.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations associated with financial liabilities as they come due. The Company’s investment policy is to invest its excess cash in high grade investment securities with varying terms to maturity, selected with regard to the expected timing of expenditures for continuing operations. The Company monitors its liquidity position and budgets future expenditures, in order to ensure that it will have sufficient capital to satisfy liabilities as they become due.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had current liabilities of $187,139 and had a cash balance of $5,072,745 to meet its current obligations. The Company regularly evaluates its cash position to ensure preservation and security of capital as well as maintenance of liquidity.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Company has no significant risk to future cash flows from interest rate risk. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk.

Capital Management

The Company considers its capital to be shareholders’ equity which comprises share capital, shares to be issued, contributed surplus and deficit, which as of March 31, 2022, totalled an equity of $5,693,457.

The Company's objective when managing capital is to maintain adequate levels of funding to support its exploration activities and to maintain corporate and administrative functions necessary to support operational activities.

The Company manages its capital structure in a manner that provides sufficient funding for operational activities. Funds are primarily secured through equity capital raised by way of private placements. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue raising equity capital in the future.

The Company invests all capital that is surplus to its immediate operational needs in short-term, liquid and highly rated financial instruments, such as cash and other short-term guaranteed deposits, and all are held in major financial institutions. There were no changes to the Company's approach to capital risk management during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

See also “Use of Proceeds and Available Funds” in the Prospectus with respect to the estimated timeframe for use of net proceeds from the Offering and the estimated total operating costs necessary for the Company to achieve its stated business objectives during that period of time.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

To the Shareholders and Management of BPGM MINERAÇÃO Ltda. Rio de Janeiro - RJ

Opinion on the financial statements

We have audited the financial statements of BPGM MINERAÇÃO Ltda. (“Company”) , which comprise the statement of financial position as at December 31, 2021, and the respective statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, as well as the corresponding notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the aforementioned financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the equity and financial position of BPGM Mineração Ltda ., as of December 31, 2021, the performance of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with international financial reporting standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

Basis for opinion on the financial statements

Our audit was conducted in accordance with international auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are described in the section below entitled “Auditor's Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Statements”. We are independent from the Company in accordance with the relevant ethical principles set out in the Professional Accountant's Code of Ethics and in the professional standards issued by the Federal Accounting Council, and we comply with other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these standards. We believe that the audit evidence obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Management's responsibilities for the financial statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting international financial reporting standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) for the internal controls that it has determined to be necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, Management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless Management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

  • § Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations or the override of internal controls;

  • § Obtain an understanding of internal controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls;

  • § Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and disclosures made by Management;

  • § Conclude on the appropriateness of Management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern;

  • § Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether they represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal controls that we identify during our audit.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

To the Shareholders and Management of BPGM MINERAÇÃO Ltda. Rio de Janeiro - RJ

Opinion on the financial statements

We have audited the financial statements of BPGM MINERAÇÃO Ltda. (“Company”), which comprise the statement of financial position as at December 31, 2020, and the respective statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flow for the period from May 19, 2020 (start of operations) to December 31, 2020, as well as the corresponding notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the aforementioned financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the equity and financial position of BPGM Mineração Ltda. , as of December 31, 2020, the performance of its operations and its cash flow for the period from May 19, 2020 (start of operations) to December 31, 2020, in accordance with international financial reporting standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

Basis for opinion on the financial statements

Our audit was conducted in accordance with international auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are described in the section below entitled “Auditor's Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Statements”. We are independent from the Company in accordance with the relevant ethical principles set out in the Professional Accountant's Code of Ethics and in the professional standards issued by the Federal Accounting Council, and we comply with other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these standards. We believe that the audit evidence obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Management's responsibilities for the financial statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting international financial reporting standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) for the internal controls that it has determined to be necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, Management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless Management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements taken as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion.

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but it is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements may result from fraud or error and are considered

3

==> picture [80 x 34] intentionally omitted <==

material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably influence the economic decisions of users that are made on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. So do we:

  • § Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations or the override of internal controls;

  • § Obtain an understanding of internal controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls;

  • § Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and disclosures made by Management;

  • § Conclude on the appropriateness of Management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern;

  • § Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether they represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal controls that we identify during our audit.

Description of Business

BPGM Mineração Ltda. was incorporated on May 19, 2020, under the laws of Brazil, in the context of negotiations with Vale S.A. (“Vale”) to acquire the Luanga Project.

In the period from the incorporation date to December 31, 2020 there were no activities other than the entering into of the Agreement (as defined below) with Vale; all the costs associated with the Agreement up to December 31, 2020 were absorbed by the major shareholder at the time, so the Company did not

P a g e | 3

BPGM Mineração Ltda. Management’s Discussion & Analysis Year Ended December 31, 2021 Dated: January 14, 2022

have any income, expense, assets or liabilities during the period ended December 31, 2020 other than the unpaid subscribed capital of US$18,972, which was paid in 2021, being the year the Company commenced its activities of mineral exploration.

The Company is primarily engaged in the business of acquiring, exploring and, if warranted, developing and operating mineral properties in Brazil. The Company has obtained required permits in Brazil for current activities and expects to obtain permits for future proposed work on the Luanga Project, subject to royalty interests held by Vale, a major Brazilian mining company and the original owner of the Luanga Project, and Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social ("BNDES"), a Brazilian governmental development bank.

The head office and principal address of the Company is Av. Jornalista Ricardo Marinho 360 – loja 111 – Barra da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil CEP 22631-350.

The Company has no revenues, so its ability to ensure continuing operations is dependent on the discovery of economically recoverable mineral resources and mineral reserves, confirmation of its interest in the underlying mineral claims, and its ability to obtain necessary financing to complete the exploration activities, development, if they are proven successful, and future profitable production.

The Company’s goal is to deliver superior returns to shareholders by concentrating on the acquisition, exploration and, if warranted, development and operation of mining properties. The Company plans to focus on the exploration and development of the Luanga Project, as set out below under “Mineral Property Interests”.

The Company will continue to need to raise capital to meet its ongoing operating activities.

Outlook and Economic Conditions

The Company is a mineral exploration company, focused on exploring its current property interests, and on acquisitions of other mineral exploration properties, should such acquisitions be consistent with its objectives and acquisition criteria. The Company currently has operations in Brazil. The Company’s financial success will be dependent upon the extent to which it can define and/or make discoveries of mineral deposits and on the economic viability of any such deposits. The development of such assets may take years to complete and the resulting income, if any, is difficult to determine with any certainty. To date, the Company has not produced any revenues. The sales value of any minerals defined and/or discovered by the Company is largely dependent upon factors beyond its control, such as the market value of the commodities produced.

There are significant uncertainties regarding the prices of base and precious metal and the availability of equity financing for the purposes of exploration and evaluation. The future performance of the Company is largely tied to the successful exploration, discovery and eventual development of its property interests, if they are proven successful, and other prospective business opportunities and the overall financial markets. Financial markets are likely to be volatile, reflecting ongoing concerns about the stability of the global economy.

Management regularly monitors economic conditions, estimates their impact on the Company’s operations, and incorporates these estimates in both short-term operating and longer-term strategic decisions.

Financing activities were affected by proceeds from issuance of shares (quotas) of $502,608 and paid up of capital subscribed in 2020 ($18,972).

Investing activities included the purchase of mining rights from Vale of $300,000, exploration and evaluation expenditures of $90,395, property, plant and equipment of $6,016, and long-term assets of $1,042.

There are no commitments, events, risks or uncertainties, other than listed below in “Risks and Uncertainties” that the Company believes will materially affect the Company’s future performance including revenue, profit or loss from continuing operations.

The Company had a cash balance of US$492,286 at the beginning of the fourth quarter, after the advances for capital increase of US$521,580 made along the year and effectively capitalized on October 13, 2021, The decrease in cash to US$98,186 as of December 31, 2021 was a result of cash outflows of US$372,130 in investing activities (including the US$300,000 payment to Vale and US$72,130 mainly comprised of exploration expenditures) and the cash outflow in operating activities of US$21,970 (including US$ translation effects of US$3,941).

Liquidity and Financial Position

The activities of the Company, principally the acquisition, exploration, and evaluation of mineral properties, are financed through equity from shareholders. The Company continues to seek capital through various means including the issuance of equity and/or debt.

The Company has no operating revenues and therefore must utilize its current cash reserves and other financing transactions to maintain its capacity to meet ongoing discretionary and committed exploration and operating activities.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had a working capital surplus of $98,770 (December 31, 2020 – working capital of $nil).

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had no debt. Its credit and interest rate risk are minimal and amounts payable and other liabilities are short term and non-interest bearing.

The Company is an exploration stage company and has not generated cash flow from operations. As at December 31, 2021 the Company had negative cash flow from operating activities. The Company expects to continue to incur negative operating cash flow and losses for the foreseeable future. To the extent that the Company has negative operating cash flow in future periods, it will need to allocate a portion of its cash to fund such negative cash flow. If the Company experiences future negative cash flow, the Company may

BPGM Mineração Ltda. Management’s Discussion & Analysis Year Ended December 31, 2021 Dated: January 14, 2022

also be required to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or debt securities. See “Risks and Uncertainties” section below.

Trends

Management regularly monitors economic conditions and estimates their impact on the Company’s operations and incorporates these estimates in both short-term operating and longer-term strategic decisions. Strong equity markets are favorable conditions for completing a public merger, financing, or acquisition transaction. Apart from these and the risk factors noted under the heading “Risks and Uncertainties”, and “Outlook and Economic Conditions”, management is not aware of any other trends, commitments, events, or uncertainties that would have a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements

As of the date of this MD&A, the Company does not have any off-balance-sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on the results of operations or financial condition of the Company, including, and without limitation, such considerations as liquidity, capital expenditures and capital resources that would be material to investors.

Related Party Transactions

(a) Key Management Personnel include those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company as a whole. The Company has determined that key management personnel consist of the Company´s administrator and corporate officers.

(b) During the three months ended December 31, 2021, the Company paid no fees to related parties.

(c) Of the shares (quotas) issued up to December 31, 2021, 100% was owned by the Administrator of the Company, Luis Azevedo.

Financial Instruments

The Company manages its exposure to a number of different financial risks arising from operations as well as from the use of financial instruments, including market risks (foreign currency exchange rate and interest rate), credit risk and liquidity risk, through its risk management strategy. The objective of the strategy is to support the delivery of the Company's financial targets while protecting its future financial security and flexibility. Financial risks are primarily managed and monitored through operating and financing activities. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments. The financial risks are evaluated regularly with due consideration to changes in key economic indicators and to up-to-date market information. The Company’s risk exposures and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the financial risk of non-performance of a contracted counter party. The Company's credit risk is primarily attributable to cash and cash equivalents. The Company reduces its credit risk by maintaining its cash with reputable financial institutions.

P a g e | 9

BPGM Mineração Ltda. Management’s Discussion & Analysis Year Ended December 31, 2021 Dated: January 14, 2022

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations associated with financial liabilities as they come due. The Company’s investment policy is to invest its excess cash in high grade investment securities with varying terms to maturity, selected with regard to the expected timing of expenditures for continuing operations. The Company monitors its liquidity position and budgets future expenditures, in order to ensure that it will have sufficient capital to satisfy liabilities as they become due.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had current liabilities of $2,097 and had a cash balance of $98,186 to meet its current obligations. The Company regularly evaluates its cash position to ensure preservation and security of capital as well as maintenance of liquidity.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Company has no significant risk to future cash flows from interest rate risk. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk.

Capital Management

The Company considers its capital to be shareholders’ equity which comprises share capital, shares to be issued, contributed surplus and deficit, which as of December 31, 2021, totaled an equity of $521,580.

The Company's objective when managing capital is to maintain adequate levels of funding to support its exploration activities and to maintain corporate and administrative functions necessary to support operational activities.

The Company manages its capital structure in a manner that provides sufficient funding for operational activities. Funds are primarily secured through equity capital raised by way of private placements. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue raising equity capital in the future.

The Company invests all capital that is surplus to its immediate operational needs in short-term, liquid and highly rated financial instruments, such as cash and other short-term guaranteed deposits, and all are held in major financial institutions. There were no changes to the Company's approach to capital risk management during the year ended December 31, 2021.

Share Capital

As of the date of this MD&A, the Company had 28,131,340 shares (quotas). No warrants and no stock options were issued and outstanding. Therefore, the Company had 28,131,340 shares (quotas) on a fully diluted basis.

Proposed Transactions

There are no transactions of a material nature being considered by the Company at the date of this MD&A. The Company also continues to evaluate properties and corporate opportunities to advance its exploration, development, and objectives.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

To the Shareholders and Management of BPGM MINERAÇÃO Ltda. Rio de Janeiro - RJ

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of BPGM MINERAÇÃO LTDA., as of March 31, 2022, and the related statements of income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three-month period then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes. Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of this interim financial information in accordance with international financial reporting standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity.” A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim financial information does not give a true and fair view of the financial position of the entity as at March 31, 2022, and of its financial performance and its cash flows for the threemonth period then ended in accordance with international financial reporting standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

Description of Business

BPGM Mineração Ltda. was incorporated on May 19, 2020, under the laws of Brazil. in the context of negotiations with Vale S.A. (“Vale”) to acquire the Luanga Project.

The Company is primarily engaged in the business of acquiring, exploring and, if warranted, developing and operating mineral properties in Brazil. The Company has obtained required permits in Brazil for current

P a g e | 3

BPGM Mineração Ltda. Management’s Discussion & Analysis Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 Dated: April 8, 2022

activities and expects to obtain permits for future proposed work on the Luanga Project, subject to royalty interests held by Vale, a major Brazilian mining company and the original owner of the Luanga Project, and Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social ("BNDES"), a Brazilian governmental development bank.

The head office and principal address of the Company is Av. Jornalista Ricardo Marinho 360 – loja 111 – Barra da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil CEP 22631-350.

The Company has no revenues, so its ability to ensure continuing operations is dependent on the discovery of economically recoverable mineral resources and mineral reserves, confirmation of its interest in the underlying mineral claims, and its ability to obtain necessary financing to complete the exploration activities, development, if they are proven successful, and future profitable production.

The Company’s goal is to deliver superior returns to shareholders by concentrating on the acquisition, exploration and, if warranted, development and operation of mining properties. The Company currently plans to focus on the exploration and development of the Luanga Project, as set out below under “Mineral Property Interests”.

The Company will continue to need to raise capital to meet its ongoing operating activities.

Outlook and Economic Conditions

The Company is a mineral exploration company, focused on exploring its current property interests, and on acquisitions of other mineral exploration properties, should such acquisitions be consistent with its objectives and acquisition criteria. The Company currently has operations in Brazil. The Company’s financial success will be dependent upon the extent to which it can define and/or make discoveries of mineral deposits and the economic viability of any such deposits. The development of such assets may take years to complete and the resulting income, if any, is difficult to determine with any certainty. To date, the Company has not produced any revenues. The sales value of any minerals defined and/or discovered by the Company is largely dependent upon factors beyond its control, such as the market value of the commodities produced.

There are significant uncertainties regarding the prices of base and precious metal and the availability of equity financing for the purposes of exploration and evaluation. The future performance of the Company is largely tied to the successful exploration, discovery and eventual development of its property interests, if they are proven successful, and other prospective business opportunities and the overall financial markets. Financial markets are likely to be volatile, reflecting ongoing concerns about the stability of the global economy.

Management regularly monitors economic conditions, estimates their impact on the Company’s operations, and incorporates these estimates in both short-term operating and longer-term strategic decisions.

Highlights

  • (a) On October 13, 2020, the Company entered into a definitive agreement (the “Agreement”) with Vale to acquire 100% of the mineral rights in the Luanga Project, registered with the Brazilian National Mining Agency (“ANM”) with the number 851.966/92, and located in Carajás region, Pará State, Brazil.

BPGM Mineração Ltda. Management’s Discussion & Analysis Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 Dated: April 8, 2022

Overall Objective

The primary business objective of the Company is the acquisition, exploration and evaluation of mineral properties in Brazil. In furtherance of this objective, the Company established the following business strategy:

  • Develop and implement a discretionary exploration budget on its property interests with a view to establishing a viable mineral deposit; and

  • Capitalize on management's technical expertise and ability to identify, evaluate, and acquire exploration properties.

See “Risks and Uncertainties” below.

Mineral Property Interests

The Company commissioned a Technical Report for its Luanga platinum group element + gold + nickel project, titled “Independent Technical Report for the Luanga PGE + Au + Ni Project, Para State, Brazil” dated May 29, 2022, with an effective date of April 12, 2022, that outlined a two-phase work program totaling US$30.15 million. The Company intends to complete the Phase 1 work program and, subject to the results of the Phase 1 work, the Phase 2 work program as recommended by the Technical Report. The Phase 1 work program consists primarily of validation of previous data, mineral resource estimation, exploratory drilling, metallurgical studies and preparation of an updated technical report, and is estimated to cost US$16.15 million and is expected to be completed by Q1 2023. The Phase 2 work program consists primarily of mineral resource estimation, exploratory drilling, metallurgical studies and preparation of an updated technical report, and is estimated to cost US$14 million and completed by Q1 2024.

Work to implement the recommendations of the Technical Report commenced in the current quarter and, by March 31, 2022, minimal work had been completed, including relocating some of the historical core to site and commencing relogging, site preparation for drilling and hiring of staff to support the work program. Project expenditures during the quarter totaled US$210,296, and the anticipated timing and costs for the Project remain unchanged from those set out in the Technical Report.

See “General Development and Business of the Company” and “Use of Proceeds and Available Funds” in the Prospectus for further details relating to the Company’s plan and milestones for the Luanga Project,

Financial Highlights

Financial Performance

The Company’s net loss totalled $112,423 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, with basic and diluted loss per share of $0.00, compared to a net loss of $595 with basic and diluted loss per share of $0.00 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in net loss of $111,828 was principally because the Company had limited exploration and evaluation activities in the first quarter of 2021; most of its activities commenced after the Company´s shareholders made equity contributions in October 2021.

Total assets

Assets were $1,003,233 as of March 31, 2022 (December 31, 2021 - $497,827), an increase of $505,406, with cash and cash equivalents making up 22% (December 31, 2021 – 20%), exploration and evaluation assets, which only includes the Luanga Project, making up 60% (December 31, 2021 – 78%), and property, plant and equipment making up 17% (December 31, 2021 – 1%) of total assets. On March 31, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $217,951 (December 31, 2021 - $98,186), an increase of $119,765 mainly due to proceeds from the March 21, 2022 equity contribution of $490,000 offset by payments of acquisition of assets and exploration expenditures, and cash used for professional fees, office and administrative, consulting, travel and filing and listing fees.

Total liabilities

As of March 31, 2022, liabilities were $115,881 (December 31, 2021 - $2,097). The variation is primarily the result of the increased exploration activity in the first quarter of 2022.

Cash Flow

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had a cash balance of $217,951 (compared to $98,186 as at December 31, 2021). The increase in cash of $119,765 from the December 31, 2021 cash balance was a result of cash inflow from financing activities of $490,000, cash outflow in operating activities of $10,190, cash outflows in investing activities of $374,090, and a positive translation adjustment of $14,045. On March 31, 2021 the Company had no cash.

Operating activities were affected by net loss of $112,423, reduced by non-cash working capital items of $269, and non-cash adjustments of $101,964. Non-cash adjustments consisted of an increase in other assets of $11,820, in payable taxes of $1,453, in accounts payable of $16,633, and accrued liabilities of $95,698, .

Financing activities were affected by proceeds from issuance of shares (quotas) of $490,000.

Investing activities included exploration expenditures and purchase of property, plant and equipment totaling $374,090.

There are no commitments, events, risks or uncertainties, other than listed below in “Risks and Uncertainties” that the Company believes will materially affect the Company’s future performance including revenue, profit or loss from continuing operations.

BPGM Mineração Ltda. Management’s Discussion & Analysis Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 Dated: April 8, 2022

Liquidity and Financial Position

The activities of the Company, principally the acquisition, exploration, and evaluation of mineral properties, are financed through equity from shareholders. The Company continues to seek capital through various means including the issuance of equity and/or debt.

The Company has no operating revenues and therefore must utilize its current cash reserves and other financing transactions to maintain its capacity to meet ongoing discretionary and committed exploration and operating activities.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had a working capital surplus of $116,571 (December 31, 2021 – working capital surplus of $98,770).

As of March 31, 2022, the Company has no debt. Its credit and interest rate risk are minimal and amounts payable and other liabilities are short term and non-interest bearing.

The Company is an exploration stage company and has not generated cash flow from operations. As at March 31, 2022, the Company had negative cash flow from operating activities. The Company expects to continue to incur negative operating cash flow and losses for the foreseeable future. To the extent that the Company has negative operating cash flow in future periods, it will need to allocate a portion of its cash to fund such negative cash flow. If the Company experiences future negative cash flow, the Company may also be required to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or debt securities. See “Risks and Uncertainties” section below.

Trends

Management regularly monitors economic conditions and estimates their impact on the Company’s operations and incorporates these estimates in both short-term operating and longer-term strategic decisions. Strong equity markets are favorable conditions for completing a public merger, financing, or acquisition transaction. Apart from these and the risk factors noted under the heading “Risks and Uncertainties”, and “Outlook and Economic Conditions”, management is not aware of any other trends, commitments, events, or uncertainties that would have a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements

Financial Instruments

The Company manages its exposure to a number of different financial risks arising from operations as well as from the use of financial instruments, including market risks (foreign currency exchange rate and interest rate), credit risk and liquidity risk, through its risk management strategy. The objective of the strategy is to support the delivery of the Company's financial targets while protecting its future financial security and flexibility. Financial risks are primarily managed and monitored through operating and financing activities. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments. The financial risks are evaluated regularly with due consideration to changes in key economic indicators and to up-to-date market information. The Company’s risk exposures and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the financial risk of non-performance of a contracted counter party. The Company's credit risk is primarily attributable to cash and cash equivalents. The Company reduces its credit risk by maintaining its cash with reputable financial institutions.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations associated with financial liabilities as they come due. The Company’s investment policy is to invest its excess cash in high grade investment securities with varying terms to maturity, selected with regard to the expected timing of expenditures for continuing operations. The Company monitors its liquidity position and budgets future expenditures, in order to ensure that it will have sufficient capital to satisfy liabilities as they become due.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had current liabilities of $115,881 and had a cash balance of $217,951 to meet its current obligations. The Company regularly evaluates its cash position to ensure preservation and security of capital as well as maintenance of liquidity.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Company has no significant risk to future cash flows from interest rate risk. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk.

Capital Management

The Company considers its capital to be shareholders’ equity which comprises share capital, shares (quotas) to be issued, contributed surplus and deficit, which as of March 31, 2022, totalled an equity of $1,011,580.

The Company's objective when managing capital is to maintain adequate levels of funding to support its exploration activities and to maintain corporate and administrative functions necessary to support operational activities.

The Company manages its capital structure in a manner that provides sufficient funding for operational activities. Funds are primarily secured through equity capital raised by way of private placements. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue raising equity capital in the future.

The Company invests all capital that is surplus to its immediate operational needs in short-term, liquid and highly rated financial instruments, such as cash and other short-term guaranteed deposits, and all are held in major financial institutions. There were no changes to the Company's approach to capital risk management during the three months ended March 31, 2022..

Share Capital

As of the date of this MD&A, the Company had 52,998,840 shares (quotas). No warrants and no stock options were issued and outstanding. Therefore, the Company had 52,998,840 shares (quotas) on a fully diluted basis.

Proposed Transactions

There are no transactions of a material nature being considered by the Company at the date of this MD&A. The Company also continues to evaluate properties and corporate opportunities to advance its exploration, development, and objectives.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, each of which could have an adverse effect on its results, business prospects or financial position. The Company’s securities should be considered a highly speculative investment and investors should carefully consider all of the information disclosed in the Prospectus prior to making an investment in the Company.
