MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

Six Month Period Ended February 28, 2022

Report Date – April 29, 2022

GENERAL COPPER GOLD CORP. Management’s Discussion and Analysis Six Month Period Ended February 28, 2022

Introduction

General Copper Gold Corp. (formerly General Gold Resources Inc.) (the “Company”) is a publicly traded company incorporated on April 29, 1982, under the laws of British Columbia, Canada. The Company is a reporting issuer in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Ontario, and its common shares were listed and posted for trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) on February 1, 2021, under the trading symbol "GGLD".

On July 29, 2020, the Company entered into a mineral property option agreement (the “Option Agreement”) to acquire 100% of the right, title and interest in and to the Clark’s Brook Property in central Newfoundland. In conjunction with the execution of the option agreement, on December 29, 2020, the Company voluntarily delisted its common shares from trading on the NEX board of the TSXV and concurrently applied to list its common shares for trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”).

In order to satisfy the CSE listing requirements and finance the Company’s obligations under the Option Agreement, the Company completed a non-brokered private placement issuing 15,350,000 units (each, a "Unit") at a price of $0.06 per Unit. Each Unit is comprised of one common share in the capital of the Company and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share at a price of $0.10 per share at any time within 18 months of the date of issuance of the warrant.

The Company also completed a debt settlement to enable the Company to satisfy the working capital listing requirements of the CSE. The Debt Settlement resulted in an aggregate of $479,400 of indebtedness being retired in consideration for the issuance of 7,989,997 Units at a price of $0.06 per Unit (same terms as the Units issued under the private placement). The debt settlement and private placement were completed on January 6, 2021.

The Company’s registered and head offices are located at 1558 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, BC, V6G 3J4.

In accordance with Form 51-102F1, the following Management’s Discussion & Analysis ("MD&A") provides a review of activities, results of operations and financial condition of the Company for the six month period ended February 28, 2022. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six month period ended February 28, 2022 and with the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2021 and 2020 which were prepared in accordance with IFRS. All monetary amounts, unless otherwise indicated, are expressed in Canadian dollars.

Overall Performance and Results of Operations

Three Month Period Ended February 28, 2022

During the three month period ended February 28, 2022, the Company reported a loss and comprehensive loss of $100,448 as compared to $171,313 for the three month period ended February 28, 2021, representing a decrease in loss of $70,865. The decrease in loss is as expected given the Company completed its listing on the CSE during the period ended February 28, 2021, resulting in additional legal fees and filing fees.

Six Month Period Ended February 28, 2022

During the six month period ended February 28, 2022, the Company reported a loss and comprehensive loss of $210,451 as compared to $191,640 for the six month period ended February 29, 2021, representing an increase in loss of $18,811.

The increase in loss was primarily due to the following:

  • Professional fees decreased from $35,945 during the period ended February 28, 2021 to $4,673 during the period ended February 28, 2022, as the Company completed its listing on the CSE during the comparative period, resulting in increased legal fees.

  • Transfer agent and filing fees decreased from $37,311 during the period ended February 28, 2021 to $19,637 during the period ended February 28, 2022, as the Company completed its listing on the CSE during the comparative period, resulting in increased one-time listing fees and filing fees.

  • Management fees increased from $Nil during the period ended February 28, 2021 to $60,000 during the period ended February 28, 2022, as the Company was not compensating management for their services during the comparative period when the Company had no active project.

  • Investor relations and marketing expenses increased from $Nil during the period ended February 28, 2021 to $21,498 during the period ended February 28, 2022, as the Company incurred expenses relating to DTC eligibility and marketing materials during the current period, whereas the Company was inactive during the comparative period.

Mineral Properties

Clark’s Brook Property

On July 29, 2020 the Company entered into an arm’s length option agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with Metals Creek Resources Corp. (“MCR”) to acquire 100% of the right, title and interest in and to the Clark’s Brook Property in central Newfoundland.

The Company commissioned a technical report on the Clark's Brook Property, entitled "Technical Report on the Clark's Brook Property Central Newfoundland and Labrador" (the "Technical Report"). The Technical Report was prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") by Desmond Cullen, P.Geol. and Michael Regular, P.Geol. of Clark Exploration Consulting. Each of Desmond Cullen, P.Geol. and Michael Regular, P.Geol. is a "Qualified Person" as defined in NI 43-101 and is independent of the Company and MCR. The Technical Report is available under the Company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

The Clark's Brook Property consists of 31 claim units in one license (026731M) for a total of 7.7 sq. km (770 hectares). The license is held by MCR and is in good standing to August 1, 2028. The claims were staked in 2016 to cover two auriferous showings discovered in 2003. The Clark's Brook Property is located in central Newfoundland near Northwest Gander River, approximately 25 kilometers west of the town of Glenwood. It is situated on NTS map sheet 02D/14. The Clark's Brook Property is centered on UTM coordinates 614,950mE/5,407,000mN (NAD27 Zone 21) on NTS 02D/14.

The Clark's Brook Property itself was subject to limited prospecting carried out by Altius Resources Inc. ("Altius") from 2003 through 2009. Additional prospecting was carried out by MCR in 2016 after the acquisition of the claims.

As part of a large 1:10,000 geological mapping and prospecting program conducted by Altius, both the Clark's Brook East ("CBE") and West ("CBW") gold discoveries were made. On the CBE gold zone, seven representative grab samples were attained, each comprised of material from several mineralized boulders that assayed between 2.98g/t and 24.5g/t gold with an average of 7.93g/t gold.

A sample of underlying bedrock on the northern edge of the boulder distribution pattern returned 1.25g/t gold. An additional outcrop exposure some 25m upstream cut by a narrow quartz vein and associated iron-carbonate alteration was sampled in two representative grab samples and returned 0.15g/t and 0.62g/t Au.

The CBW gold zone discovery was first made in mineralized boulders returning 8.9g/t and 9.28g/t gold. The site was revisited and found one of the auriferous boulders to fit on an adjacent outcrop. An additional eight samples of brecciated and altered siltstone were collected from boulder and outcrop, returning anomalous gold values to 0.335g/t Au.

In September 2017, MCR optioned the Clark's Brook Property to Sokoman Iron Corp. (now Sokoman Minerals Corp. ("Sokoman")) who immediately completed a Phase 1 drill program (515 meters) in an effort to locate in situ mineralization similar in tenor to the surface sampling at the CBE Zone. The program was a success in that all holes intersected gold mineralization similar in style and tenor to the surface float. In February 2018, Sokoman completed a second, three-hole (594 meter) phase of diamond drilling. This program was also successful in that it expanded the extent of gold mineralization identified by the initial phase of drilling. A third and final, three-hole (1,209 meter) drill program was conducted in August 2019 where the drilling was conducted at a different orientation to drill the center of a magnetic low in an attempt to cut deeper mineralization. All three programs were successful in cutting intervals of vuggy, chalcedonic, quartz veining with 1-3% disseminated pyrite, minor arsenopyrite and very minor stibnite. Intercepts of 3.74g/t Au over 3.20m have been attained.

The Technical Report recommends that the Company conduct a $100,400 Phase 1 exploration program of mapping, prospecting coupled with rock and soil sampling on the Property. The program will focus on evaluating the entire Clark's Brook Property to define new areas of the gold mineralization. The mapping program will focus on interpreting the relationships of the pyrite/arsenopyrite mineralization to structure or alteration. Soil sampling orientation surveys using various soil sampling techniques and analysis will be completed in the areas of known gold mineralization and new showings.

In accordance with the terms of the Option Agreement, the Company will reserve to MCR a 2% net smelter royalty (the "NSR") on the mineral claims, provided, however, that the Company shall have the right at any time to purchase from MCR 1% of the NSR in consideration for a one-time payment of the sum of $1,000,000. During the year ended August 31, 2020, the Company issued the initial $50,000 cash payment under the Option Agreement, which is included in exploration and evaluation asset.

During the year ended August 31, 2021, the Company made the second cash payment of $30,000 and issued 200,000 common shares at a deemed price of $0.06, pursuant to the terms of the Option Agreement. The Company incurred $775 in exploration expenditures on the Clark’s Brook property during the period ended November 30, 2021.

Topley Richfield Property

On July 20, 2021, the Company entered into an option agreement to acquire up to a 100% interest in and to the copper-gold Topley Richfield property, located in the Omineca mining division of British Columbia, 60 kilometres east-southeast from Smithers. It is accessible by road, power runs through the western side of the Property and the village of Topley is less than 10km away. The Property covers 2,313 hectares and is comprised of seven contiguous claims. Previous exploration has focussed on expanding the known mineralization.

Pursuant to the agreement, the Company can commence the earn-in to acquire a 50.1% interest in the property through the issuance of two million common shares and a cash payment of $200,000 on or before 10 days after signing the agreement. Thereafter, should the Company wish to keep the option to earn a 50.1% interest in the property in good standing, it may, in its sole discretion: issue two million common shares on or before 12 months from the effective date and thereafter should the Company wish to complete the earn-in and acquire the 50.1% interest in the property, the company would issue two million common shares on or before 24 months from the effective date.

The Company can acquire an additional 16.9% interest in the property by issuing two million common shares within 45 days after the first option earn-in deadline. Following the exercise of the second option, the Company can earn a final 33% interest in the property (for a total interest of 100%) by issuing four million common shares and making a cash payment of $15,000 within 12 months of the second option earn-in deadline.

Financial Instruments and Risk Management

Fair Values and Classification

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable and notes payable. Financial instruments are classified into one of the following categories: FVTPL, FVTOCI, or amortized cost. The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments are classified into the following categories:

Page | 9

GENERAL COPPER GOLD CORP. Management’s Discussion and Analysis Six Month Period Ended February 28, 2022

Financial Instrument Category February 28, August 31,
2022 2021
($) ($)
Cash and restricted cash FVTPL 8,952 137,571
Accounts payable Amortized cost 108,110 237,352
Notespayable Amortized cost 101,000 -

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 cash is measured on the statement of financial position using level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of accounts payable approximate their book values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

The carrying amounts of the notes payable approximate fair value as the interest rates were negotiated between the Company and an arm’s length third party.

Financial instrument risk exposure

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. The Company is exposed in varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks. The Board approves and monitors the risk management processes.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its payment obligations. The Company manages this credit risk by ensuring that cash is placed with a major financial institution with strong investment grade ratings by a primary ratings agency.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company endeavors to ensure that there is sufficient capital in order to meet short-term business requirements, after taking into account the Company’s holdings of cash. The Company’s cash is invested in business accounts which are available on demand. The Company is exposed to liquidity risk.

ollows:
<1 year 2-3 Years Total
($) ($) ($)
Accounts payable and accrued
liabilities 108,110 - 108,110

Interest rate risk

The Company is nominally exposed to interest rate risk. The Company’s bank account earns interest income at variable rates. The Company does not have any variable interest rate liabilities.

Foreign exchange risk

The Company is not exposed to significant foreign currency risk.

Management of Capital

The Company considers items included in shareholders’ deficiency as capital. The Company’s objective when managing capital is to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to pursue project opportunities for the benefit of its shareholders. The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue new shares, issue debt or acquire or dispose of assets. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain debt or equity capital in the case of operating cash deficits.

There have been no changes to the Company’s approach to capital management during the period ended February 28, 2022.

Subsequent Events

Subsequent to the period ended February 28, 2022, the following significant transactions occurred:

  • i) On April 27, 2022, the Company announced a non-brokered private placement to raise gross proceeds of up to $1,000,000 through the issuance of 5,000,000 units at $0.20. Each unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant is exercisable at $0.40 for a period of 12 months from the date of issue. The Company closed the first tranche of the private placement through the issuance of 3,740,000 units for gross proceeds of $748,000.

  • ii) 100,000 share purchase warrants were exercised at a price of $0.10 for proceeds of $10,000.

GENERAL COPPER GOLD CORP. Management’s Discussion and Analysis Six Month Period Ended February 28, 2022

Risks and Uncertainties

  • a) Political and Regulatory Risk

Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations, and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions thereunder. These may include responding to 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.

b) Limited Operational History

The Company does not have any significant operations. As a result, there is no assurance that the Company will earn profits in the future or that profitability, if achieved, will be sustained.

c) Additional Financing

The Company will require additional financing in order to make further developments or take advantage of unanticipated opportunities. The ability of the Company to arrange such financing will depend in part upon prevailing capital market conditions as well as the business performance of the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to arrange additional financing on terms satisfactory to it. If additional financing is raised by the issuance of shares from treasury, control of the Company may change and shareholders may suffer dilution. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, the Company may not be able to take advantage of opportunities or otherwise respond to competitive pressures and remain in business.

d) Key Personnel and Future Staffing Requirements

The Company’s success will also be dependent on its ability to identify, recruit, motivate and retain highly qualified executive, management and technical support.

  • e) Price Volatility of a Public Stock

The securities markets in the United States and Canada have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many companies, particularly those considered to be exploration of development stage companies, have experienced wide fluctuations in price which have not necessarily been related to the operating performance or underlying net asset values of such companies.

Management’s Responsibility for Consolidated Financial Statements

The Company’s management is responsible for the presentation and preparation of these consolidated financial statements and the MD&A. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. The MD&A has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of securities regulators, including National Instrument 51-102 of the Canadian Securities Administrators.
