A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements including, but not limited to, changes in general economic and market conditions and other risks and uncertainties including those discussed under "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this Prospectus and certain documents incorporated by reference including the Annual Information Form (as defined below). Although the forward-looking statements are based upon what management believes to be reasonable assumptions, estimates, analysis and opinions of management made in light of its experience and its perception of trends, current conditions and expected developments, as well as other factors management believes to be reasonable and relevant in the circumstances and at the date that such statements are made, management cannot assure that actual results will be consistent with these forward looking statements.

In addition to other factors and assumptions which may be identified herein, assumptions have been made regarding, among other things: the success of the Corporation's exploration and development activities; availability of financing to fund current and future plans and expenditures; the impact of increasing competition; the general stability of the economic, market and political environment in Canada and other applicable regions as a result of COVID-19 and otherwise; the timely receipt of all requisite permits and required regulatory approvals; the ability of the Corporation to obtain qualified staff, equipment and/or services in a timely and cost efficient manner; currency, exchange and/or interest rates; the applicable regulatory framework, taxes and/or other regulatory matters in the jurisdictions in which the Corporation operates; and the ability of the Corporation to successfully complete its proposed exploration and development programs.

These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Prospectus, or in the case of documents incorporated by reference herein, as of the date of such document, and the Corporation disclaims any intent or obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise unless as required by applicable securities laws.

CONSOLIDATED CAPITALIZATION

Other than as noted in the section entitled “Prior Sales”, there has been no material change in the share and loan capital of the Corporation, on a consolidated basis, since the date of the Interim Financial Statements, which are incorporated by reference in this Prospectus.

EARNINGS COVERAGE RATIOS

If the Corporation offers any Debt Securities having a term to maturity in excess of one year under a Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus Supplement will include earnings coverage ratios giving effect to the issuance of such Debt Securities, as applicable.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Unless otherwise specified in a Prospectus Supplement, the net proceeds from the sale of Securities for cash will be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital, funding ongoing operation and/or capital requirements, reducing the level of indebtedness outstanding from time to time, discretionary capital programs, exploration and development of the Corporation’s mineral property interests and potential future acquisitions. Each Prospectus Supplement will contain specific information, if any, concerning the use of proceeds from that sale of Securities.

All expenses relating to an offering of Securities and any compensation paid to underwriters, dealers or agents, as the case may be, will be paid out of the Corporation’s funds, unless otherwise stated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

The Corporation incurred negative operating cash flow for the financial year ended December 31, 2020. The Corporation expects to use the net proceeds from the sale of Securities under the Prospectus in pursuit of objectives set out in the preceding paragraphs and as supplemented by each Prospectus Supplement; however, to the extent that the Corporation has negative operating

12 -

cash flows in future periods, it may need to deploy a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of securities under the Prospectus and/or its existing working capital to fund such negative cash flow. In addition, the funds raised pursuant to any sale of Securities under the Prospectus may not be sufficient to fund the Corporation’s objectives as set out above and as supplemented by Prospectus Supplements to this Prospectus. See “Risk Factors”.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The Corporation may sell the Securities, separately or together, to or through underwriters or dealers purchasing as principals for public offering and sale by them, and also may sell Securities to one or more other purchasers directly or through agents. Each Prospectus Supplement will set forth the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any underwriters or agents, the purchase price or prices of the Securities and the proceeds to the Corporation from the sale of the Securities.

The Securities may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices which may be changed or at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The prices at which the Securities may be offered may vary as between purchasers and during the period of distribution. If, in connection with the offering of Securities at a fixed price or prices, the underwriters have made a bona fide effort to sell all of the Securities at the initial offering price fixed in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the public offering price may be decreased and thereafter further changed, from time to time, to an amount not greater than the initial public offering price fixed in such Prospectus Supplement, in which case the compensation realized by the underwriters will be decreased by the amount that the aggregate price paid by purchasers for the Securities is less than the gross proceeds paid by the underwriters to the Corporation.

Underwriters, dealers and agents who participate in the distribution of the Securities may be entitled under agreements to be entered into with the Corporation to indemnification by the Corporation against certain liabilities, including liabilities under Canadian securities legislation, or to contribution with respect to payments which such underwriters, dealers or agents may be required to make in respect thereof. Such underwriters, dealers and agents may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for, the Corporation in the ordinary course of business.

In connection with any offering of Securities, except as otherwise set out in a Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities, the underwriters may over-allot or effect transactions intended to maintain or stabilize the market price of the Securities offered at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market.

PURCHASERS' STATUTORY RIGHTS

Securities legislation in certain of the provinces of Canada provides purchasers with the right to withdraw from an agreement to purchase securities. This right may be exercised within two business days after receipt or deemed receipt of a prospectus or a prospectus supplement (including a pricing supplement) relating to the securities purchased by a purchaser and any amendment thereto. In several of the provinces of Canada, the securities legislation further provides a purchaser with remedies for rescission or, in some jurisdictions, damages, if the prospectus or prospectus supplement (including a pricing supplement) relating to the securities purchased by a purchaser and any amendment thereto contains a misrepresentation or is not delivered to the purchaser, provided that the remedies for rescission or damages are exercised by the purchaser within the time limit prescribed by the securities legislation of the purchaser’s province. The purchaser should refer to any applicable provisions of the securities legislation of the purchaser’s province for the particulars of these rights or consult with a legal adviser.

Original purchasers of Securities which are convertible, exchangeable or exercisable for other securities of the Corporation (including, if offered separately, Warrants, Subscription Receipts, and convertible or exchangeable debt securities) will have a contractual right of rescission against the Corporation in respect of the conversion, exchange or exercise of such Securities. Other than in the case of an offering of Warrants, Subscription Receipts, or convertible or exchangeable debt securities that may reasonably be regarded as incidental to the offering as a whole, the contractual right of rescission will entitle such original purchasers to receive the original amount paid for the convertible securities and any additional amount paid upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of such securities, upon surrender of the underlying securities gained thereby, in the event that this Prospectus, the relevant Prospectus Supplement or an amendment thereto contains a misrepresentation, provided that: (i) the conversion, exchange or exercise takes place within 180 days of the date of the purchase of such Securities under this Prospectus and the applicable Prospectus Supplement; and (ii) the right of rescission is exercised within 180 days of the date of the purchase of such Securities under this Prospectus and the applicable Prospectus Supplement. This contractual right of rescission will be consistent with the statutory right of rescission described under section 130.1 of the Securities Act (Ontario), and is in addition to any other right or remedy available to original purchasers under section 130.1 the Securities Act (Ontario) or otherwise at law.

Original purchasers are further advised that in certain provinces the statutory right of action for damages in connection with a prospectus misrepresentation is limited to the amount paid for the Securities that were purchased under a prospectus, and therefore, a further payment at the time of conversion, exchange or exercise may not be recoverable in a statutory action for damages. The purchaser should refer to any applicable provisions of the securities legislation of the province in which the purchaser resides for the particulars of these rights, or consult with a legal advisor.
