Coronavirus Pandemic
The outbreak of COVID-19 and any future emergence and spread of similar pathogens could have an adverse impact on global economic conditions, which may adversely impact the Company’s operations, and the operations of its suppliers, contractors and service providers, the ability to obtain financing and maintain necessary liquidity, and the ability to explore the Company’s properties. The outbreak of COVID-19 and political upheavals in various countries have caused significant volatility in commodity prices. While these effects are expected to be temporary, the duration of the business disruptions internationally, and related financial impact, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
Similarly, the Company cannot estimate whether, or to what extent, this outbreak and the potential financial impact may extend to countries outside of those currently impacted. Travel bans and other government restrictions may also adversely impact the Company’s operations and the ability of the Company to advance its projects. In particular, if any employees or consultants of the Company become infected with Coronavirus or similar pathogens and/or the Company is unable to source necessary consumables or supplies, due to government restrictions or otherwise, it could have a material negative

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Year Ended December 31, 2024
Liquidity and Going Concern
The Company has financed its operations to date primarily through the issuance of common shares, the exercise of stock options and share purchase warrants and the proceeds from loans advanced to the Company by the Company's directors. The Company continues to seek capital through various means including the issuance of equity and/or debt.
The Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. As at December 31, 2024, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $37,392,722 (December 31, 2023 - $37,566,794). In addition, the Company has not generated sufficient revenues to meet its operating and administrative expenses. These circumstances cast significant doubt on the validity of the going concern assumption.
In order to continue as a going concern and to meet its corporate objectives, which primarily consist of investigating new potential properties and exploration work on those potential properties, the Company will require additional financing through debt or equity issuances or other available means. Although the Company has been successful in the past in obtaining financing, there is no assurance that it will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that such financing will be on terms advantageous to the Company. Factors that could affect the availability of financing include the progress and exploration results of the mineral properties, the state of international debt, equity and metals markets, and investor perceptions and expectations.
The Company's consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2024 do not include adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. These adjustments could be material.
Capital Resources
The Company commenced fiscal 2024 with a working capital deficiency of $77,324 and cash of $99,035. As at December 31, 2024, the Company had working capital of $77,324 and cash and cash equivalents of $99,035. The Company does not anticipate generating revenues in the near future.
Critical accounting estimates
Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management's experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual outcomes can differ from these estimates. There are no significant estimates.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements as at the date of this MD&A.
Investor Relations
The Company has no investor relations agreements in place as of the date of this MD&A.

The amounts due to the related parties become due on demand one year after the date they were issued to the Company and are unsecured and non-interest-bearing.
FINANCIAL AND CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT
Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
- Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
- Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and
- Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data.
The fair value of the Company’s cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and loans payable approximate their carrying values due to the short term nature of these financial instruments.
The Company is exposed to varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks:
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations.
Concentration of credit risk exists with respect to the Company’s cash. The Company’s cash is substantially held with a single major Canadian financial institution.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Year Ended December 31, 2024
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2024 totalled $99,035 (December 31, 2023 - $245,392). At December 31, 2024, the Company had accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $32,749 (December 31, 2023 - $351,629). All of the Company's financial liabilities have contractual maturities of less than 30 days and are subject to normal trade terms. The loans payable become due on demand one year after the date they were issued. The Company will be required to obtain additional funding to meet its contractual liabilities.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and commodity and equity prices.
a) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.
The Company’s cash consist of cash held in bank accounts. Accordingly, due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments, fluctuations in market rates do not have a significant impact on estimated cash flows or fair values as of December 31, 2024.
b) Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates.
The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk to the extent that monetary assets and liabilities held by the Company are not denominated in Canadian dollars.
The Company operates in Canada, Argentina and Colombia and a portion of its expenses are incurred in Colombian pesos and US dollars. A significant change in the exchange rate between the Canadian dollar relative to the Colombian peso and US dollar could have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The Company does not manage currency risk through hedging or other currency management tools.
As at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company is exposed to currency risk through the financial instruments denominated in Colombian pesos. Assuming all other variables remain constant, a 15% (December 31, 2022 - 15%) weakening or strengthening of the Canadian dollar against the Colombian peso would result in a change of approximately $Nil (December 31, 2023 - $48,000) to net loss and comprehensive loss.
As at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company is not exposed to any other currency risk.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Year Ended December 31, 2024
Capital management
The Company considers its capital under management to consist of shareholders’ equity. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, based on the funds available to the Company, in order to support the acquisition and exploration of exploration and evaluation assets. The Board of Directors does not establish a quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company's management to sustain future development of the business.
The Company will continue to explore and evaluate its existing mineral property and will assess new properties and seek to acquire an interest in additional properties if it feels there is sufficient geologic or economic potential and if it has adequate financial resources to do so. Although the Company has been successful at raising funds in the past through obtaining equity financing, it is uncertain whether it can continue this financing.
Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable.
There were no changes in the Company's approach to capital management during the period. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
Current Share Data
As at December 31, 2024, the Company had 17,377,857 common shares issued and outstanding, 8,595,252 warrants with an exercise price of $0.25 expiring on March 8, 2025 and no stock options outstanding.
