OVERALL PERFORMANCE

Background

Gelum is a junior mineral resource exploration company with a focus on the acquisition, exploration, and development of mineral properties primarily prospective for gold, other precious metals, and copper. The Company is focused on two highly-prospective properties in BC. These assets include the Eldorado Gold Project (9,028 hectares) located within the Bralorne/Bridge River gold district near Lillooet, which was host to one of the highest-grade, longestproducing mines in British Columbia., and the ML Copper-Gold project (8,736 hectares) located in a prolific BC porphyry belt between Gibraltar and Mt. Polley mines near Williams Lake with excellent access and infrastructure.

Operational update

Eldorado Gold Project

The Eldorado Gold Project is located in the South Chilcotin Mountains, 79 km north of the town of Pemberton via a paved road. The area has been a focus in gold discovery since the Fraser River gold rush of the late 1850’s. The Bridge River area was extremely active throughout the depression years of the 1930’s. when Austin Taylor operated Bralorne for 7 years generating over $370 Million dollars. A recent study of historical information which includes soil samples, geochem, geophysics, and the historical review of two drill campaigns; one by the Cinnabar Resources in 1985 and one completed by Gold Fields in 2011, confirms that the highest priority targets are yet to be drilled.

Drilling on the property in 2011 by GFE Exploration Corporation (five holes totaling 1379 metres) intersected numerous, widespread intervals of gold mineralization, including 1.22 metres of 32.6 g/t Au (0.94m true thickness) at 292 metres down-hole, where visible gold occurs within a quartz- carbonate-sulphide vein. This in turn occurs within a broader mineralized zone of 25.6 metres of 2.19 g/t Au between 270.58 - 296.18 metres.

On November 1, 2022, the Company reported that it completed the first three holes (800 metres) of the planned 11hole, 3000 metre, helicopter-supported, diamond-drill programme at the Eldorado Gold project. Drilling intersected multiple quartz-carbonate-sulphide zones in all three holes. The mineralized zones are characterized by intense silica and carbonate alteration, quartz cemented hydrothermal breccias, crack and seal veins, open space filling (locally cockade banding) with fine-grained pyrite and arsenopyrite typical of high-grade gold-bearing structures in the district.

• The first drill hole was collared near the entrance to the Northern Lights No. 1 historical adit. Several directions of gold-bearing sulphide veins are present in addition to thick panels of siliceous iron-carbonate cutting the Eldorado diorite and older Bralorne greenstone units over 1000 metres along strike, on the east slope of the highly gold-anomalous ridge leading south from Nea Peak (see Gelum’s NR Dec. 15, 2021).

• The second hole also targeted this mineralization along strike 250 metres to the north of the first.

• The third hole targeted the largest gold-arsenic-antimony talus geochemical anomaly 1500 metres to the north, and was collared on the east side of the ridge and directed west to intersect east-dipping iron-carbonate panels exposed along the ridge.

• A total of 252 core samples (and an additional 20 quality control samples) have been submitted to MSA Laboratories in Langley, B.C. and results are expected in 6-8 weeks.

• The remaining eight pads will be drilled when snow conditions allow in early summer 2023. The pads are located to the east and west of the main ridge, at lower elevations, and will allow the previously intersected mineralization to be tested at greater depths where gold grades should increase. A single hole at the north end of a highly gossanous, gold-mineralized feldspar-porphyry dike on the Robson claim will test high-grade gold-arsenic mineralization seen in float there, as well as the east-dipping siliceous iron-carbonate panels seen in drill holes to the south.

• Drillling the remaining holes is estimated to require approximately 8 weeks and cost $1.2 million.

ML Property

The ML Project is a brownfields land position located 6 kilometres northwest of Mt. Polley, 28 kilometres east of the Gibraltar Mine and 6 kilometres southwest of Osisko's QR Deposit. The project has an outcropping porphyry and

4

GELUM RESOURCES LTD. (An Exploration Stage Company) Form 51-102F1 Management Discussion & Analysis Year ended April 30, 2023

replacement mineralization but has only been sparsely drilled. Recently the Company has established early-stage targets based on the recent aeromagnetic survey, as well as historic till geochemical survey work. Historic sampling has yielded Up to 1.4% Cu and 0.648 g/t Au in rocks at the surface, with placer gold deposits present along northeastern and northern claim boundaries. About half the project is till-covered and has potential for significant buried mineralization. A small drill programme in 1985 targeted a copper soil anomaly associated with a mineralized monzonite stock and adjacent volcanic and sedimentary units and comprised short (45 to 92m) holes that total 435m. This drilling did not adequately test the mineralized outcrops located northwest and upslope from the soil anomaly.

During the year ended April 30, 2023, title to the property was forfeited. As a result, an impairment expense of $260,897 was recorded in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss for the year ended April 30, 2023, in accordance with Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS

Title to exploration and evaluation assets 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 history characteristic of many exploration and evaluation assets. The Company has investigated title to all its exploration and evaluation assets and, to the best of its knowledge, title to all its properties, except for the ML project, are in good standing.

The exploration and evaluation expenditures during the year ended April 30, 2023, and April 30, 2022 were as follows:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three months ended April 30, 2023, compared with three months ended April 30, 2022

During the three months ended April 30, 2023, the Company had net loss of $324,053 (2022 - $103,183). An explanation of some of the significant differences between the current and prior periods is as follows:

• Consulting of a recover of $10,000 (2022 expense - $41,000) decreased by $51,000 due to a $31,000 reversal on a forgiveness of fees and a reduction in related party services.

• Investor relations of $24,245 (2022 - $17,966) increased by $6,279 during the current period reflecting the timing of marketing efforts to communicate the activities of the Company to existing and potential investors since listing on the CSE over a year ago.

• Office and administration of $13,243 (2022 - $9,050) increased by $4,193 in the current period due mainly to insurance expenses.

• Professional fees of $47,124 (2022 - $47,780) remained fairly consistent with the prior period.

• Rent of $14,087 (2022 - $6,591) increased by $7,496 since increasing its activities and requiring office space since listing on the CSE over a year ago.

• Transfer agent and regulatory fees of $3,661 (2022 - $4,755) decreased by $1,094 mainly due to CSE listing fees paid to the CSE over a year ago.

• Forgiveness of debt of $29,200 (2022 - $Nil) increased by $29,200 during the current period and is due to a 2016 bonus payable in shares. The former Chief Executive Officer has forgiven the debt and issuance of the shares.

• Impairment of exploration and evaluation assets of $260,897 (2022 - $Nil) increased by $260,897 on the writedown of the ML Project.

Twelve months ended April 30, 2023, compared with Twelve months ended April 30, 2022

During the twelve months ended April 30, 2023, the Company had net loss of $682,670 (2022 - $765,107). An explanation of some of the significant differences between the current and prior periods is as follows:

• Accretion of fair value of warrants of $Nil (2022 - $22,002) decreased by $22,002 during the current period mainly due to bonus warrants issued in prior periods pursuant to loan agreements and expensed during the loan repayment period. These loans have been repaid in the prior period.

• Consulting of $95,100 (2022 - $156,270) decreased by $61,170 due to a $31,000 reversal on a forgiveness of fees and a net decrease in consultant services required since listing on the CSE over a year ago.

• Investor relations of $108,487 (2022 - $38,791) increased by $69,696 during the current period reflecting the timing of marketing efforts to communicate the activities of the Company to existing and potential investors since listing on the CSE over a year ago.

• Office and administration of $59,766 (2022 - $78,222) decreased by $18,456 in the current period mainly due to office maintenance due to moving to the new premises.

8

GELUM RESOURCES LTD. (An Exploration Stage Company) Form 51-102F1 Management Discussion & Analysis Year ended April 30, 2023

• Property investigation of $Nil (2022 - $6,344) decreased by $6,344 due to expenses in the prior period exploring properties not under option.

• Professional fees of $170,185 (2022 - $152,860) increased by $17,325 mainly due to an increase in accrued audit fees and additional services provided by related parties since listing on the CSE over a year ago.

• Rent of $56,349 (2022 - $36,678) increased by $19,671 since increasing its activities and requiring office space since listing on the CSE over a year ago.

• Share-based compensation of $65,345 (2022 - $245,307) decreased by $179,962 during the current period as a result of timing and the quantity and value of stock options granted during the period compared to the comparative period.

• Transfer agent and regulatory fees of $20,353 (2022 - $43,102) decreased by $22,749 mainly due to Transfer Agent and CSE listing fees paid to list on the CSE over a year ago.

• Interest of $Nil (2022 - $9,490) decreased by $9,490 during the current period and is primarily due to interest accrued on loans balances outstanding during the prior period. The loan balances were repaid during the prior year.

• Forgiveness of debt of $29,200 (2022 - $Nil) increased by $29,200 during the current period and is due to a 2016 bonus payable in shares. The former Chief Executive Officer has forgiven the debt and issuance of the shares.

• Gain on settlement of flow-through liability $124,612 (2022 - $23,959) increased by $100,653. The flowthrough liability was recognized on a flow-through financing which was renounced on December 31, 2021, the Company satisfied the liability by spending the remaining flow-through funds during the current period.

• Impairment of exploration and evaluation assets of $260,897 (2022 - $Nil) increased by $260,897 on the writedown of the ML Project.

Total assets Exploration and evaluation assets Working capital (deficiency) Shareholders’ equity (deficiency) Net loss Loss per share and diluted loss per share	$ 1,966,255 $ 1,908,339 $ 1,423,612 $ 832,879 1,217,657 855,053 814,757 70,000 520,085 731,604 253,048 549,480 1,752,974 1,608,657 1,074,898 662,597 (103,183) (434,852) (110,349) (116,723) (0.00) (0.02) (0.00) (0.01)

The variation seen over such quarters is primarily dependent upon the success of the Company’s ongoing property evaluation program and the timing and results of the Company’s exploration activities on its then current properties, none of which are possible to predict with any accuracy. There are no general trends regarding the Company’s quarterly results, and the Company’s business of mineral exploration is not seasonal, except to the extent that explorations work on certain properties may be restricted to certain portions of the year if prevailing weather conditions make such work prohibitively expensive or practically impossible to complete at other times. Quarterly results can vary significantly depending on whether the Company has granted any stock options or paid any employee bonuses, and these are factors that account for material variations in the Company’s quarterly net losses, none of which are predictable. General operating costs other than the specific items noted above tend to be quite similar from period to period. The variation in income is related solely to the interest earned on funds held by the Company, which is dependent upon the success of the Company in raising the required financing for its activities which will vary with overall market conditions and is therefore difficult to predict.

During the year ended April 30, 2023, and 2022:

Cash flows used in operating activities was $409,862 (2022 - $602,057) was lower in the current year than the comparative period primarily due to an increase in non-cash working capital items during the year.

Cash flows used in investing activities was $1,196,404 (2022 - $515,032). The cash provided was primarily from the acquisition costs including deposits and prepaids relating to the Company’s exploration and evaluation mineral properties.

Cash flows provided by financing activities was $941,297 (2022 - $1,789,669). The decrease was primarily due to net proceeds from issuance of capital stock of $941,297 (2022 - $1,842,825) less repayment of a loan payable $Nil (2022 - $53,156).

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of April 30, 2023, the Company had a working capital deficit of $105,418 (2022 – surplus of $520,085) and cash of $12,410 (April 30, 2022 - $677,379).

The Company has no revenue generating operations from which it can internally generate funds. To date, the Company’s ongoing operations have been predominantly financed by the sale of its equity securities by way of private placements and the subsequent exercise of share purchase warrants and broker options issued in connection with such private placements as well as short-term cash loans from a related party and loans from a number of lenders (some of whom are related parties). However, the exercise of warrants/options is dependent primarily on the market price and overall market liquidity of the Company’s securities at or near the expiry date of such warrants/options (over which the Company has no control) and therefore there can be no guarantee that any existing warrants/options will be exercised. The Company can also raise funds, on a temporary basis, through short term loans (see discussion below). However, such loans typically have a term of one year or less and so, while providing temporary funding, will require repayment with funds which must be raised in other ways. In addition, the Company can raise funds through the sale

of interests in its mineral properties. This situation is unlikely to change until such time as the Company can develop a bankable feasibility study on one of its mineral properties.

When acquiring an interest in mineral properties through purchase or option, the Company will sometimes issue common shares to the vendor or optionor of the property as partial or full consideration for the property interest in order to conserve its cash.

During the period from May 1, 2022, to August 28, 2023 (date of this report), the Company:

• On May 11, 2022, the Company issued 120,000 common shares at a fair value of $27,600 pursuant to the Agreement with Bridge River Indian Band.

• On May 30, 2022, the Company issued 300,000 common shares at a fair value of $70,500 pursuant to the option agreement on the Eldorado project – Robson claims.

• On July 12, 2022, the Company issued 5,380,274 common shares on the exercise of warrants for proceeds of $322,817.

• On January 31, 2023, the Company issued 375,000 common shares at a fair value of $84,375 pursuant to the option agreement on the ML Project.

• On March 30, 2023, the Company issued 800,000 common shares at a fair value of $136,000 pursuant to the option agreement on the Eldorado project.

• On May 31, 2023, the Company issued 300,000 common shares at a fair value of $45,000 pursuant to the option agreement on the Eldorado project.

Notwithstanding the foregoing completed and announced debt settlements and private placements, the Company still require additional funding to enable the Company to cover all of its anticipated general and administrative expenses, planned exploration activities and property acquisitions for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2024. In addition, the Company requires significant additional funds to be able to proceed with the acquisition of interests in certain of its options on properties and to proceed with any material work on any of its mineral properties, and there can be no assurance that it will be successful in securing such funds.

The Company expects that it will operate at a loss for the foreseeable future and that, notwithstanding that it has recently improved its liquidity by agreeing to settle a significant portion of its debt and complete a further private placement, it will therefore need to raise significant additional funding in the current fiscal year in order to continue in business and maintain and explore its property interests beyond the end of the first quarter of the fiscal year ending April 30, 2024.

The Company has not entered into any long-term lease commitments nor is the Company presently subject to any mineral property commitments other than those outlined under Note 5 in the Company’s financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2023.

All of the Company’s cash reserves are on deposit with a major Canadian chartered bank or invested in Government of Canada treasuries. The Company does not believe that the credit, liquidity, or market risks with respect thereto have increased as a result of the current market conditions. However, in order to achieve greater security for the preservation of its capital, the Company has, of necessity, been required to accept lower rates of interest which has also lowered its potential interest income.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

GELUM RESOURCES LTD. (An Exploration Stage Company) Form 51-102F1 Management Discussion & Analysis Year ended April 30, 2023

During the period from May 1, 2022, to August 28, 2023 (date of this report), the Company:

• On December 30, 2022, completed a non-brokered private placement offering of 2,001,000 units at a price of $0.20 per unit raising aggregate gross proceeds of $400,200. Each unit consists of one Common Share and one common share purchase warrant. Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.40 per share for a period of 24 months from issuance. The Company paid finders’ fees of $6,720 and issued 33,600 finders’ warrants exercisable at a price of $0.40 until December 30, 2024. The fair value of the finders’ warrants was determined to be $4,600 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following inputs: i) exercise price: $0.40; ii) share price: $0.25; iii) term: 2 years; iv) volatility: 125%; v) discount rate: 4.06%.

Options and Warrants

During the period from May 1, 2022 to August 28, 2023 (date of this report), the Company:

• i) On July 12, 2022, issued 5,380,274 common shares on the exercise of warrants for proceeds of $322,817.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Company is in the business of acquiring, exploring and, if warranted, developing and exploiting natural resource properties in Canada, at this time, although the Company is also actively evaluating new potential mineral property acquisitions in other jurisdictions. Due to the nature of the Company’s proposed business and the present stage of exploration of its exploration and evaluation assets (which are primarily early stage exploration properties with no known resources or reserves), the following risk factors, among others, will apply:

Limited Operating History

The Company has no history of business or exploitation operations, revenue generation or production history. The Company was incorporated on June 8, 1987 and has not yet generated a significant profit from its activities. The Company is subject to all of the business risks and uncertainties associated with any new business enterprise, including the risk that it will not achieve its growth objective. The Company anticipates that it may take several years to achieve positive free cash flow.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises primarily from the Company’s cash. The Company manages its credit risk relating to cash by dealing with only with highly-rated financial institutions. As a result, credit risk is considered insignificant.

Currency Risk

Currency risk is the risk to the Company’s earnings that arises from fluctuations of foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates.

Interest rate risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk because of fluctuating interest rates. Fluctuations in market rates do not have a significant impact on the Company’s operations due to the short term to maturity and no penalty cashable feature of its cash. For the year ended April 30, 2023 every 1% fluctuation in interest rates up or down would have an insignificant impact.

Substantial Capital Requirements and Liquidity

No assurances can be given that the Company will be able to raise the additional funding that may be required. Debt financing, if available, may also involve restrictions on financing and operating activities. There is no assurance that additional financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may be required to reduce the scope of its operations or anticipated expansion.

The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining an adequate level of cash and cash equivalents to meet its ongoing obligations. The Company continuously reviews its actual expenditures and forecast cash flows and matches the maturity dates of its cash and cash equivalents to capital and operating needs. The Company has been successful in raising equity financing in the past; however, there is no assurance that it will be able to do so in the future.

GELUM RESOURCES LTD. (An Exploration Stage Company) Form 51-102F1 Management Discussion & Analysis Year ended April 30, 2023

Financing Risks and Dilution to Shareholders

The Company will have limited financial resources. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that such financing will be available on favorable terms or at all. It is likely such additional capital will be raised through the issuance of additional equity, which will result in dilution to the Company’s shareholders.

Reliance on Management and Dependence on Key Personnel

The success of the Company will be largely dependent upon on the performance of the directors and officers and the ability to attract and retain key personnel. The loss of the services of these persons may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and prospects. The Company will compete with numerous other companies for the recruitment and retention of qualified employees and contractors. There is no assurance that the Company can maintain the service of its directors and officers or other qualified personnel required to operate its business. Failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on the Company and its prospects.

Litigation

The Company and/or its directors may be subject to a variety of civil or other legal proceedings, with or without merit.

PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS

The Company is continually involved in the review and evaluation of mineral projects. However, no agreements with respect to the acquisition of any such mineral projects has yet been entered into, and there can be no assurance that the Company will, in fact, be successful in entering into any such agreements or acquiring interests in any additional mineral properties, even if a formal letter of intent to proceed with formal negotiations is executed.

As at the date of this MD&A, there are no proposed transactions where the Board of Directors, or senior management who believe that confirmation of the decision by the board is probable, have decided to proceed with that have not been publicly disseminated.

Please refer to the April 30, 2023, financial statements on www.sedar.com for a detailed description of the current accounting policies, newly adopted accounting policies, recent accounting pronouncements and critical accounting estimates.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND OTHER INSTRUMENTS

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and due to related parties. Unless otherwise noted, it is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments. The fair values of these financial instruments approximate their carrying values, unless otherwise noted. See Note 13 of the Company’s financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2023 for a discussion of the Company’s risk exposure and the impact thereof on the Company’s financial instruments.

The Company’s cash at April 30, 2023 was $12,410 and was primarily held at a major Canadian financial institution. The Company is subject to financial risk arising from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company does not use any derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
