Bravo Mining Corp.
Management's Discussion & Analysis
Three Months Ended March 31, 2025
Dated: May 30, 2025

Description of Business

The Company was incorporated on January 1, 2022, under the Business Corporations Act (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.

The Company has one direct wholly owned subsidiary, Bravo Capital Partners Ltd., and three indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, Bravo Brazil Ltd., Bravo Mineração Ltda. ("Mineração") and Bravo Metals Ltda. 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 palladium, platinum, rhodium (collectively platinum group metals or "PGMs"), gold and nickel project (PGM+Au+Ni) as well as the exploration for copper within its holdings, all located in the Carajás Mineral Province, Pará State, Brazil, that is comprised of a 7,810 hectares 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, which holds 100% right, title and interest in the Luanga Project, subject to royalty interests held by Vale S.A. ("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 cash payments in the aggregate amount of $1.3 million (the "Mineral Rights Payments"), 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 PGM concentrate from the Luanga Project to BNDES. In the event that the production of any minerals other than a PGM concentrate on the Luanga Project becomes economically viable, BNDES and Mineração have agreed to negotiate the terms of the royalties (if any) payable to BNDES on the revenue generated from such production.

The Company's head office is located at Av. Jornalista Ricardo Marinho, nº 360, room 247, 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 2501, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 2B5.

The Company has no source of revenue, and its ability to ensure continuing operations is dependent on the successful definition of economically recoverable mineral resources and mineral reserves, confirmation of its interest in the underlying mineral claims, its ability to obtain necessary financing to complete the exploration and development activities, such activities are proven successful, and future profitable production. The Company is subject to risks and challenges like other mining companies in a comparable stage of operation, exploration, and development. These risks include, but are not limited to, losses, and negative operating cash flow for the foreseeable future, and the Company's dependence on raising cash through debt or equity markets and the successful development of its mineral property interests to satisfy its commitments and continue as a going concern. While the Company believes it has sufficient funds available from existing cash on hand to maintain its mineral investments and fund further exploration, evaluation and administration costs, the Company may require additional financing to complete the recommended Work Programs or subsequent work on the Luanga Project. The Work Programs are defined in the 2025 Technical Report (as defined below in "Mineral Property Interests").

Bravo's goal is to deliver superior returns to shareholders over time by concentrating on the acquisition, exploration and, if warranted, development and subsequent operation of mining properties. The Company's current focus is the exploration and development of the Luanga Project, as set out below under "Mineral Property Interests".

Outlook and Economic Conditions

The Company is a mineral exploration company, focused on exploring its property interests, and on identifying potential acquisitions of other mineral properties, should such acquisitions be consistent with its objectives and acquisition criteria.

The Company's business is currently restricted to Brazil. The Company's financial success will be dependent upon the extent to which it can define and/or make discoveries of economic mineral deposits. The development of such assets may take years to complete and the resulting income, if any, and the timing and quantum of any such income is difficult to determine with any certainty. To date, the Company has not produced any operating revenues. The sales value of any minerals produced, defined and/or discovered by the Company is largely dependent upon factors beyond its control, such as prevailing treatment/refining costs and commodities prices from time to time.

There are significant uncertainties regarding the prices of base and precious metals and the availability of financing for the purposes of exploration and evaluation. The future performance of the Company is largely tied to commodity prices and the successful exploration, discovery and future potential development of its projects. Financial and equity 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 and longer-term strategic planning.

Highlights

a) 25,100 options were exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2025 to acquire 25,100 common shares at an average exercise price of C$1.75 and a weighted average market price of C$2.74 per common share.

b) During the first quarter of 2025, the Company completed the Phase 4 Work Program of the four-phase Work Program as outlined in the 2023 Technical Report, as defined below. The Phase 4 Work Program was comprised of additional infill drilling and metallurgical/pyro-metallurgical studies, with a total cost of $5.0 million.

c) In February 2025, the Company reported an updated mineral resource estimate for the Luanga Project (see news release dated February 18, 2025).

d) On March 3, 2025, the Pará State Environmental Agency (Secretaria de Estado de Meio Ambiente e Sustentabilidade – SEMAS) granted Bravo a preliminary license ("LP") for its Luanga Project. The Brazilian mine permitting process consists of three key stages: the preliminary license ("LP"), which has now been granted, followed by the installation license ("LI") and, finally, the license to operate ("LO"). The LP is the most critical, time-consuming and challenging to secure, as it defines the project's fundamental parameters and requires both environmental feasibility and social acceptance - both of which were affirmed during the successful public hearing in December 2024. This LP provides for the extraction and processing of metallic minerals, including platinum group metals as well as nickel, copper and gold. The subsequent LI is applied for as a prerequisite for the commencement of construction activities, while the final license (LO) is granted upon completion of construction and the start of operations.

e) On April 3, 2025, the Company filed a new Technical Report for the Luanga Project titled "NI 43-101 Independent Technical Report Luanga PGM+Au+Ni Project, Pará State, Brazil" dated April 2, 2025 (with an effective date of February 18, 2025), prepared by Porfírio Cabaleiro Rodriguez (B.Sc. Mining Engineer, FAIG) and Bernardo Viana (B.Sc. Geology, FAIG) of GE21 Consultoria Mineral (the "2025 Technical Report"), which superseded the prior Technical Report that had an effective date of October 22, 2023 ("2023 Technical Report") and which should no longer be relied upon.

f) Effective April 24, 2025, the Company granted 150,000 incentive stock options to a Director, with an exercise price of C$2.58, exercisable until April 24, 2030.

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 mineral properties.

See “Risks and Uncertainties” below.

Mineral Property Interests

The Company commissioned a new technical report for its Luanga platinum group metals + gold + nickel project, titled “NI 43-101 Independent Technical Report Luanga PGM+Au+Ni Project, Para State, Brazil” dated April 2, 2025, with an effective date of February 18, 2025 (the “2025 Technical Report”), that superseded the previous Technical Report issued in 2023 (the “2023 Technical Report”) which should no longer be relied upon. The 2025 Technical Report outlined an additional two-phase Work Program (Phases 5 and 6), currently underway and which are estimated to cost a total of $6.9 million.

The completed Phase 1 Work Program cost $10.2 million and consisted primarily of validation of previous data, infill drilling, mineral resource estimation, exploration drilling, metallurgical studies and preparation of an updated technical report with a maiden mineral resource estimate (“MRE”) for the Luanga Project.

The completed Phase 2 Work Program cost $8.7 million and consisted primarily of further infill drilling, further exploration drilling, metallurgical studies, and preparation of an updated technical report.

The completed Phase 3 Work Program cost approximately $5.4 million and consisted primarily of further mineral resource expansion drilling.

The Phase 4 Work Program was completed during the first quarter of 2025 and consisted of additional infill drilling as well as metallurgical and pyro-metallurgical studies. The total cost was $5.0 million and which ended up below budget primarily attributable to significantly lower than budgeted drill costs, as result of drilling mostly shallower than planned, thereby incurring cheaper per meter drilling rates. The Company successfully achieved its objective by efficiently providing an update on the Mineral Resource (“MRE”).

Work to implement the recommendations of the prior technical reports commenced in Q1 2022 and, by March 31, 2025, the work completed included 345 diamond drill holes (for 73,823 meters drilled), including eight twin holes and eight metallurgical drill holes. Results have been reported for all Bravo drill holes to date excluding the metallurgical holes. A total of 45 trenches (total excavations of 9,066 meters) have been completed to date, with results which have all been reported as of the date of this MD&A.

The Phase 5 Work Program commenced on April 1, 2025 and, under the program, the Company plans to complete metallurgical test work and optimization, continue with its carbon sequestration study, as well as preliminary economic studies, deep drilling and regional exploration. The total cost estimated for the current phase is $5.9 million.

Financial Highlights

Financial Performance

Three months ended March 31, 2025, compared with three months ended March 31, 2024

The Company's net loss totaled $689,590 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, with basic and diluted loss per share of $0.01, compared to a net loss of $534,117 with basic and diluted loss per share of $0.00 for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

  • During the three months ended March 31, 2025, stock-based compensation increased to $511,178 (Q1 2024 - $323,320). The increase of $187,858 was primarily due to the most recent grant issued on December 19, 2024, which alone accounted for $180,608 of the expense recorded in the current quarter. In comparison, this grant did not exist in Q1 2024.
  • During the three months ended on March 31, 2025, office and administrative expenses decreased to $128,356 (Q1 2024 - $177,990), a decrease of $49,634 mainly due to a reduction in the number of employees, in the level of Directors' fees (as approved by the Board), and in the cost of the administration services agreement.
  • During three months ended March 31, 2025, consulting fees decreased to $139,682 (Q1 2024 - $196,538). The reduction of $56,856 was mainly due to a reduction in the number of consultants and in the cost of the consultants' service agreements.
  • During the three months ended March 31, 2025, foreign exchange loss changed to a gain of $6,027 (Q1 2024 – loss of $28,811). The decrease of $34,838 was due to the Canadian dollar devaluation in Q1 2025.

  • During the three months ended March 31, 2025, travel expenses decreased to $20,159 (Q1 2024 - $65,017). The reduction of $44,858 was primarily attributed to a decreased company presence in external events during first quarter of the current year, including reduced staff participation at PDAC and conference attendance.
  • During the three months ended March 31, 2025, interest and other income decreased to $226,270 (Q1 2024 - $379,798). The decrease of $153,528 was mainly due to the lower cash available for investment and decrease in the interest rates in the quarter compared with the previous year's period.

Total assets

Total assets were $57,143,377 on March 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024 - $57,355,502), an increase of $212,125, with cash and cash equivalents making up approximately 39% (December 31, 2024 – 42%), exploration and evaluation assets, which only includes the Luanga Project, making up approximately 57% (December 31, 2024 – 55%), and property, plant and equipment making up approximately 3% (December 31, 2024 – 3%) of total assets. On March 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $22,467,406 (December 31, 2024 - $23,843,563), a decrease of $1,376,157 mainly due to payments of exploration and evaluation expenditures, professional fees, office and administrative, consulting fees, travel, investor relations and filing and listing fees.

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 will continue to seek capital through various means, including the issuance of equity and/or debt, where and when appropriate.

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.

The Company's net working capital as of March 31, 2025, was $22,330,530 (December 31, 2024 – $23,291,115).

There may be circumstances where, for valid business reasons, an additional reallocation of funds may be necessary in order for the Company to achieve its stated business objectives. The Company cannot guarantee it will have a cash flow positive status from operating activities in future periods. As a result, the Company continues to rely on the issuance of equity/securities or other sources of financing to generate sufficient funds to fund its working capital requirements and for corporate expenditures. The Company is expected to have negative cash flow from operating activities until, and if sufficient levels of production and sales are achieved. To the extent that the Company has negative cash flow from operating activities in future periods, the Company will need to use proceeds from any financing/offering to fund such negative cash flow. 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 planning and subsequent decisions. Although the junior resource exploration sector has recently faced challenging equity markets conditions, the Company has been able to raise sufficient capital to date to fund exploration programs on its material property. Stronger equity markets can create more favourable 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" in this MD&A and those in the Company's Annual Information Form, 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.

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 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 counterparty. 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 of maturity, selected as to align with the expected timing of expenditures for continuing operations. The Company monitors its liquidity position and budgets future expenditures to ensure that it will have sufficient capital to satisfy liabilities as they come due.

As of March 31, 2025, the Company had current liabilities of $333,824 and had cash and cash equivalents of $22,467,406 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.

(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

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on fluctuations related to cash and cash equivalents, 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 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, by approximately $30,000 (three months ended March 31, 2024 – approximately $55,000).

The Company also has balances in Canadian dollars for cash and cash equivalents, interest receivable, recoverable taxes, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. A 10% fluctuation between the US dollar and the Canadian dollar would additionally impact profit or loss for three months ended March 31, 2025, by approximately $85,000 (three months ended March 31, 2024 – approximately $125,000).

Capital Management

The Company's objective when managing its capital is to maintain the necessary financing to complete exploration and development of its properties, and to maintain a flexible capital structure that optimizes the cost of capital at an acceptable level of risk. The Company manages its capital structure and adjusts it considering changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of its underlying assets. The Company maintains or adjusts its capital level to enable it to meet its objectives by raising capital through equity financing and reviewing and reducing capital spending on mineral properties when necessary.

The Company considers its capital to be equity, comprising share capital, contributed surplus, accumulated other comprehensive loss and deficit which, at March 31, 2025, totaled $56,440,333 (December 31, 2024 - $56,205,560), as well as debt facilities which, at March 31, 2025, totaled $402,458 (December 31, 2024 - $379,548).

The Company is not subject to any capital requirements imposed by a regulator. When using debt, the Company evaluates whether the debt level maintained is sufficient to provide adequate cash flows for capital expenditures, repayment of the debt, and for evaluating the need to raise funds for further expansion. To date, the Company has not declared any cash dividends to its shareholders. The Company's management is responsible for the management of capital and reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis through the preparation of annual expenditure budgets, which are updated regularly to take into account factors such as successful financings to fund activities, changes in property holdings and related obligations and exploration activities and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. The property in which the Company currently has an interest is in the exploration stage, and as such the Company may be dependent on external financing to fund its activities. To carry out the planned exploration, the Company may be required to raise additional funding.

There were no changes in the Company's approach to capital management during the three months ended March 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024 - same) and the Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
