The Company continued to mine from the Tau deposit at the Mupane Property and the Dinokwe open cut during Q2 2021, while continuing to develop mining at the Golden Eagle property from both open cut and underground sources. The mining was supplemented with the continued reclamation of sands from historic tailings dumps and low grade ore from stockpiles located in close proximity to the Mupane property:

• Tau – In Q2 2021, the Company continued mining in the main reef of the ore body with 42,672 tonnes at 1.79 g/t being mined (three months ended June 30, 2020 (“Q2 2020’) – 59,532 tonnes at 2.58 g/t). The tonnes and grade for Q2 2021 were lower than Q2 2020 with mining activity during the quarter impacted by employee absences due to COVID-19, issues with the main incoming transformer, and production complications due to poor contractor performance. For YTD 2021, 90,879 tonnes at 1.85 g/t were mined compared to 126,900 tonnes at 2.61 g/t for the six months ended June 30, 2020 (“YTD 2020”). The tonnes and grade for YTD 2021 have been impacted by flooding of lower levels of the mine following substantial rainfall during Q1 2021, the increasing mine depth at Tau, employee absences due to COVID-19, issues with the main incoming transformer, and production complications due to poor contractor performance.

• Dinokwe – For Q2 2021 the Company mined 158,937 tonnes of waste, and 70,511 tonnes of ore at a grade of 1.56 g/t (Q2 2020 – 241,524 tonnes of waste and 4,283 tonnes of ore at a grade of 1.67 g/t). The increase in ore mined for Q2 2021 is due to mining in the main ore body, compared to Q2 2020 when the Dinokwe mine was only commencing development as an open cut ore body. For YTD 2021, the Company mined 410,680 tonnes of waste, and 110,554 tonnes of ore at a grade of 1.64 g/t (YTD 2020 – 348,394 tonnes of waste and 8,295 tonnes of ore at a grade of 1.52 g//t). The increase in ore mined for YTD 2021 is due to mining in the main ore body, compared to YTD 2020 when the Dinokwe mine was only commencing development as an open cut ore body.

GALANE GOLD LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021

• Golden Eagle – During Q2 2021, the Company mined 18,589 tonnes of ore at an average grade of 1.50 g/t., primarily from the Kite open pit. There was no mining activity at Golden Eagle during Q2 2020. For the YTD 2021 the Company mined 22,241 tonnes of ore at an average grade of 1.57 g/t, with the majority of the ore coming from the Kite open pit. There was no mining activity at Golden Eagle during YTD 2020.

• Monarch/Historic Tailings – In Q2 2021, the Company transported 21,793 tonnes of historic tailings at an average grade of 0.70 g/t, (Q2 2020- 83,605 tonnes of Monarch slimes at 0.78 g/t). The hauling of historic tailings for Q2 2021 were lower than hauling from the Monarch sands in Q2 2020 due to restricted access to the historic tailings as compared to the Monarch sands. For YTD 2021 the Company transported 56,710 tonnes of historic tailings at an average grade of 0.82 g/t, (YTD 2020 – 153,070 tonnes of Monarch slimes at 1.00 g/t), with hauling of historic tailings for YTD 2021 lower due to restricted access to the historic tailings as compared to the Monarch sands.

In addition, the Company is currently processing ore from its previously mined low-grade stockpiles, which are located next to the Golden Eagle mine, Signal Hill and Molomolo. In Q2 2021, the Company reclaimed 18,791 tonnes of low-grade ore stockpiles at an average grade of 0.76 g/t (Q2 2020 – 12,105 tonnes at 1.44 g/t) with trucks previously used to haul Monarch slimes having been reassigned to lowgrade stockpile reclamation. For YTD 2021, the Company reclaimed 65,375 tonnes at an average grade of 0.68 g/t (YTD 2020 – 13,632 tonnes at 1.47 g/t).

Processing

The following table sets forth certain key processing statistics at the Mupane Property:

		2021	2021	2021	2020	2020	2020	2020	2020
		Q2	Q1	Total	Q4	Q3	Q2	Q1	Total
Ore milled Head grade Recovery Gold production	t g/t % oz	166,161 1.45 77.4% 5,990	170,780 1.31 77.6% 5,600	336,941	166,087 1.77 75.4% 7,122	194,906 1.63 75.6% 7,738	157,644 1.52 74.0% 5,691	144,853 2.08 70.4% 6,818	663,490
				1.38					1.74
				77.5%					73.8%
				11,590					27,369

Gold production in Q2 2021 was 5,990 ounces compared to 5,691 ounces in Q2 2020. The ore milled for Q2 2021 was 166kt (Q2 2020 – 158kt). The grade in Q2 2021 of 1.45 g/t was below the grade for Q2 2020 of 1.52 g/t and was reflective of the feedstock available, with the feed primarily impacted by the lower Tau ore grades due to the areas being mined. The recovery for Q2 2021 of 77.4% was above the recovery for Q2 2020 of 74.0%. The increased recovery was reflective of the increased proportion of hard rock feed of the ore processed for Q2 2021.

Gold production for YTD 2021 was 11,590 ounces compared to 12,509 ounces for YTD 2020. The ore milled for YTD 2021 was 337kt (YTD 2020 – 302kt). The grade for YTD 2021 of 1.38 g/t was below the grade for YTD 2020 of 1.78 g/t and was reflective of the feedstock available, with the feed primarily impacted by the lower Tau ore grades due to the areas being mined. The recovery for YTD 2021 of 77.5% was above the recovery for Q2 2020 of 72.2%. The increased recovery was reflective of the increased proportion of hard rock feed of the ore processed for YTD 2021.

Revenue and earnings from mining operations

The table below outlines the revenue and earnings from mining operations on a total dollar basis, and on a per ounce of gold sold basis:

	Q2 2021	Q1 2021	YTD 2021
Revenue (000)	$ 10,455	$ 10,070	$ 20,525
Gold sold (oz.)	5,851	5,685	11,536
Earnings (Loss) from mining operations (000)	$ 1,484	$ 891	$ 2,375
Operating cash cost excluding royalties ($/oz.)(1)	$ 1,351	$ 1,391	$ 1,370
	Q2 2020	Q1 2020	YTD 2020
Revenue (000)	$ 10,375	$ 9,474	$ 19,849
Gold sold (oz.)	6,046	6,105	12,151
Earnings (Loss) from mining operations (000)	$ 1,980	$ 871	$ 2,851
Operating cash cost excluding royalties ($/oz.)(1)	$ 1,065	$ 1,037	$ 1,050

Note:

• (1) Operating cash cost excluding royalties per ounce is a non-GAAP measure. See “Supplemental Information to Management’s Discussion and Analysis”.

In Q2 2021, the Company generated $10.5 million in revenue from the sale of 5,851 ounces of gold plus incidental silver at an average combined price of $1,787 per ounce and earnings from mining operations of $1.5 million. This compares to $10.4 million in revenue from the sale of 6,046 ounces of gold plus incidental silver at an average combined price of $1,716 per ounce and earnings from mining operations of $2.0 million in Q2 2020.

The reason for the change in earnings from mining operations from Q2 2021 to Q2 2020 is a result of several factors:

• Gold sales for Q2 2021 were 195 ounces less than in Q2 2020. The impact of the decreased ounces sold was offset by an increase in the average gold price achieved of $71 per ounce, resulting in an overall revenue increase of $0.1 million compared to Q2 2020.

• Mining costs in Q2 2021 were $3.5 million compared to $2.4 million in Q2 2020. The increase in mining costs is due to an increase in tonnes mined for the quarter with 172kt mined in Q2 2021, compared to 160kt for Q2 2020. More specifically for Q2 2021 there were 131kt tonnes mined, excluding reclaimed ore sources, compared to 64kt tonnes, excluding reclaimed ore sources, for Q2 2020.

• Processing costs in Q2 2021 were $4.2 million compared with $3.7 million in Q2 2020. The actual tonnes milled increased from 157,644 tonnes in Q2 2020 to 166,161 tonnes in Q2 2021, however costs increased disproportionately with the increased hard rock feed affecting reagent and grinding media consumption.

• General and administration costs in Q2 2021 were $0.8 million compared to $0.7 million in Q2 2020.

GALANE GOLD LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021

• Depreciation and amortization expense was $0.5 million in Q2 2021 compared to $1.5 million in Q2 2020. The amortization for Q2 2021 was impacted by a $1.0 million decrease in Tau amortization.

As a result of the above factors the operating cash cost per ounce excluding royalties in Q2 2021 was $1,351 compared to $1,065 per ounce in Q2 2020.

YTD 2021, the Company generated $20.5 million in revenue from the sale of 11,536 ounces of gold plus incidental silver at an average combined price of $1,779 per ounce and earnings from mining operations of $2.4 million. This compares to $19.8 million in revenue from the sale of 12,151 ounces of gold plus incidental silver at an average combined price of $1,634 per ounce and earnings from mining operations of $2.9 million for YTD 2020.

The reason for the change in earnings from mining operations from YTD 2021 to YTD 2020 is a result of several factors:

• Gold sales for YTD 2021 were 615 ounces less than in YTD 2020. The impact of the decreased ounces sold was offset by an increase in the average gold price achieved of $145 per ounce, resulting in an overall revenue increase of $0.7 million compared to YTD 2020.

• Mining costs YTD 2021 were $7.0 million compared to $5.4 million for YTD 2020. The increase in mining costs is due to an increase in tonnes mined, with 345kt mined YTD 2021, compared to 302kt for YTD 2020. More specifically for YTD 2021 there were 224kt tonnes mined, excluding reclaimed ore sources, compared to 135kt tonnes, excluding reclaimed ore sources, for YTD 2020.

• Processing costs for YTD 2021 were $8.1 million compared with $7.1 million for YTD 2020. The actual tonnes milled increased from 302,497 tonnes for YTD 2020 to 336,941 tonnes for YTD 2021 however costs increased disproportionately with the increased hard rock feed affecting reagent and grinding media consumption.

• General and administration costs for YTD 2021 were $1.6 million, consistent with YTD 2020 spend of $1.6 million.

• Depreciation and amortization expense was $1.4 million for YTD 2021 compared to $2.9 million for YTD 2020. The amortization for YTD 2021 was impacted by a $1.8 million decrease in Tau amortization and a $0.1 million decrease in Monarch preproduction amortization, offset by an increase in Dinokwe pre-stripping amortization of $0.5 million. Depreciation on property, plant and equipment decreased by $0.1 million for the YTD 2021.

As a result of the above factors the operating cash cost per ounce excluding royalties for YTD 2021 was $1,370 compared to $1,050 per ounce for YTD 2020.

As at the end of Q2 2021, there was a working capital deficiency of $13.1 million, a decrease of $1.5 million from the end of Q1 2021. The decrease in working capital deficiency was mainly due to the following movements in total current liabilities and cash balance:

• A cash balance decrease of $0.1 million.

• Trade and other receivables increased by $0.8 million to $2.7 million. Trade receivables increased by $0.3 million, taxes recoverable increased by $0.5 million, as the Company has experienced delays in receiving VAT refunds, however the majority of the due balance was received in July.

• Inventories remained consistent with a balance of $4.5 million.

• Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased by $1.3 million with trade payables increasing $1.1 million, with a $0.6 million increase at Mupane, $0.1 million increase at Galaxy and $0.4 million increase at Galane. Accrued liabilities increased by $0.2 million with the resumption of a bonus accrual in the current year.

• A decrease of $2.2 million in interest bearing loans and borrowings, with a decrease of $1.6 million in debentures with the conversion to Common Shares, a decrease of $0.6 million for the Barak loan facility and a $0.1 million decrease in lease liabilities, offset by an increase of $0.1 million in deferred mining royalties.

There was an increase of $4.5 million for the warrant liability related to the warrants issued in the 2021 Private Placement and Summit Acquisition and $0.2 million in the rehabilitation provision, offset by a $0.1 million decrease in lease liabilities.

GALANE GOLD LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021

Total shareholders’ equity for YTD 2021 increased by $9.0 million primarily due to equity raise of $8.6 million and earnings for the quarter of $0.3 million.

As at the end of Q2 2021, there was a working capital deficiency of $13.1 million, an increase of $0.7 million from the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase in working capital deficiency was mainly due to the following movements in total current liabilities and cash balance:

• A cash balance decrease of $2.2 million.

• Trade and other receivables increased by $0.7 million to $2.7 million. Trade receivables increased by $0.1 million, taxes recoverable increased by $0.4 million, as the Company has experienced delays in receiving VAT refunds, however the majority of the due balance was received in July, and a $0.2 million increase in prepaid expenses.

• A decrease of $0.1 million for inventories, with an increase of $0.2 million in gold in process offset by a decrease of $0.3 million in stores inventory.

Total shareholders’ equity for YTD 2021 increased by $8.6 million primarily due to equity raise of $8.6 million.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND GOING CONCERN

The Company defines capital as consisting of shareholders’ equity, being made up of issued capital stock, contributed surplus and deficit and long-term debt. The Company’s objectives when managing capital are primarily to support the creation of shareholder value, but also to ensure that the Company is able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company has not declared or paid any dividends on its Common Shares.

In order to fund the business activities intended in its current business plan, management expects that the Company’s Mupane mining operations will continue to provide positive cash flow from its operations that is more than sufficient to support its corporate expenses, capital expenditure requirements and exploration activities, subject to the Going Concern commentary below related to the current uncertain impact of COVID-19 on the operating environment. As described above under “Summary of Financial Position”, at June 30, 2021, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $13.1 million and generated cash flows from operations of $2.6 million for the period ended June 30, 2021.

The revenue of the Company is dependent upon the spot price of gold. At the current level of operating costs, the Company will continue to generate positive cash flow on an annual basis from operations even if there was a 10% reduction in the spot price of gold as at the date of this MD&A.

The Company’s officers and senior management take full responsibility for managing the Company’s capital and do so through monthly meetings and regular review of financial information. The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing this process.

GALANE GOLD LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021

Going Concern

The Interim Financial Report was prepared using international financial reporting standards that are applicable to a going concern.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, several measures continue to be in place in Botswana, South Africa and the rest of the world in response to the increased impact from COVID-19. The Company continues to operate while observing compliance with capacity and enhanced operating requirements as mandated by the Republic of Botswana Government and Republic of South Africa Government, including but not limited to social distancing, wearing of face masks, provision of hand sanitizer for employees and visitors, registration upon entry to site and temperature checks. While the impact of COVID-19 is expected to be temporary, the current circumstances are dynamic and the impacts on our business operations, including the duration and impact on our future production, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time and we anticipate this could have an adverse impact on the Company's financial position, results of operation and cash flows. The Company's liquidity and ability to continue as a going concern may also be impacted.

As at June 30, 2021, the Company had a working capital deficiency (current assets less current liabilities) of $13.1 million compared to a deficiency of $12.4 million at December 31, 2020.

The working capital deficiency includes deferred royalties of $4.9 million now classified as a current liability. During 2020, the Company entered into discussions with the Government of Botswana to reschedule the repayment of the outstanding balance, however, with the current focus on the COVID-19 shutdown of non-essential services in the country, these discussions have not yet concluded.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Company’s financial position, result in material uncertainties which may give rise to significant doubt as to the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Because of these uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the measures that management is taking to mitigate the Company’s liquidity position and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic will be successful.

The ongoing strength in gold prices and positive operating performance at the Mupane mine have resulted in earnings from mining operations of $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $2.9 million for the same period in 2020, with cashflow from operations of $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $4.5 million for the same period in 2020. The Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures at the Mupane or Galaxy mine as of June 30, 2021.

The current commodity price and exchange rate environment can be volatile, which may have an impact on the Company’s cash flows. Despite the higher gold price currently being realized, the Company continues to review its near term operating plans and to take steps to reduce costs and maximize cash flow generated from operations.

The Interim Financial Report does not reflect adjustments to the carrying values of the assets and liabilities, the reported revenues and expenses, and the balance sheet classifications used, that would be necessary if the Company were unable to realize its assets and settle its liabilities as a going concern in the normal course of operations. Such adjustments could be material.

Note:

(1) Information for all periods is presented in accordance with IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting and in U.S. dollars.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, trade and other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, interest bearing loans and borrowing, and warrants denominated in foreign currencies. The fair value of the Company’s trade and other receivables, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying value. The Company’s other financial instruments, specifically interest bearing loans and borrowings are recorded at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The Company is subject to normal industry credit risks. The credit risk related to the trade receivable is considered minimal as gold and gold concentrate is sold to creditworthy major banks and offtake partners and settled promptly, usually within the following month, and the other receivable balance consists of amounts outstanding on tax credits from governmental authorities, each of

13

GALANE GOLD LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021

which are expected to be paid in the near term at face value. Management believes that the Company’s exposure to credit risk is minimal.

Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to try to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. As at June 30, 2021, the Company had current assets of $10,033,315 (December 31, 2020 - $11,560,086) to settle current liabilities of $23,127,606 (December 31, 2020 - $23,996,806). See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section for further commentary on the Company’s liquidity risks.

Interest risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market risk.

Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company’s operations are in Botswana, South Africa and Canada and its presentation currency is U.S. dollars. The international nature of the Company’s operations results in foreign exchange risk as transactions are denominated in foreign currencies, including the Botswana Pula, the South African Rand and Canadian Dollars. The operating results and the financial position of the Company are reported in U.S. dollars. The fluctuations of the operating currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar will, consequently, have an impact upon the reported results of the Company and may also affect the value of the Company’s assets and liabilities. The Company monitors the volatility of foreign exchange rates and will hedge its currency risk if it determines that the need arises.

Market risk is the risk that the fair values of financial instruments or that the Company’s future cash flows will fluctuate because of changes in market commodity rates. The Company’s efforts are currently focused on the production of gold. As such, the Company’s future cash flows and valuation of its mineral assets will be exposed to market risk on the price fluctuations of gold as a commodity.

ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING SHARE CAPITAL

The Company’s authorized capital consists of an unlimited number of Common Shares, of which 332,521,644 Common Shares are issued and outstanding as of the date of this MD&A.

The Company adopted a stock option plan (the “Option Plan”). Under the terms of the Option Plan, officers, directors, employees and consultants are eligible to receive grants of stock options to purchase Common Shares for a period of up to ten years from the date of grant, provided that the number of Common Shares reserved for issuance may not exceed 10% of the total issued and outstanding Common Shares at the date of the grant. As of the date of this MD&A, subject to the terms of the Option Plan, options to purchase 7,500,000 Common Shares are outstanding and options to purchase 25,232,164 Common Shares are available for grant.

The Company adopted a share purchase plan (“SPP”) on June 12, 2012. Under the terms of the SPP, each participating officer, director, or employee that has been employed with the Company or its subsidiaries for at least six months is entitled to receive the matching number of Common Shares acquired pursuant to the SPP at no cost to such officer, director or employee. Subject to certain conditions, such deferred matching shares will be issued to the participating officers, directors or employees over a three-year period following the date of the purchase of the qualifying shares. As of the date of this MD&A, no deferred matching shares are owed to the participating officers, directors and employees of the Company.

The Company has adopted a deferred share unit plan (the “DSU Plan”). Subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, the maximum aggregate number of Common Shares that may be reserved for issuance pursuant to the DSU Plan is 13,262,888 Common Shares. As of the date of this MD&A, subject to the terms of the DSU Plan, participating officers, directors, employees and consultants of the Company may be issued an aggregate of up to 7,170,046 Common Shares pursuant to outstanding deferred share units awarded under the DSU Plan and 1,125,782 Common Shares have been issued under the DSU Plan.

DEBENTURES

As part of the acquisition of the Galaxy Property in 2015, the Company issued approximately $2.4 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured convertible debentures (the “Galaxy Debentures”) to settle outstanding debt or contractual obligations owed by Galaxy Gold Mining (Pty) Limited (formerly Galaxy Gold Mining Limited, “Galaxy”) and its subsidiary Galaxy Gold Reefs (Pty) Ltd. The original terms of the Galaxy Debentures were: (i) to mature on November 20, 2019, (ii) to bear 4% interest per annum, accrued and paid at maturity, (iii) to allow conversion of the principal at the option of the holder into Common Shares at a price of C$0.58[(1)] per Common Share, based on a pre-determined exchange rate of $1.00: C$1.30, and (iv) to allow conversion of the interest at the option of the holder into Common Shares, based on a pre-determined exchange rate of $1.00: C$1.30, at a price per Common Share equivalent to the greater of C$1.00 and the Discounted Market Price (as defined by the Exchange) at the time of conversion, subject to acceptance of the Exchange. On September 27, 2019, the Company prepaid $728,000 of principal amount of the Galaxy Debentures. On September 30, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with a requisite percentage of Galaxy Debenture holders to amend certain terms of the Galaxy Debenture. Under the terms of the amended Galaxy Debentures: (i) the maturity date is extended to November 20, 2021, (ii) the principal is convertible at the option of the holder into Common Shares at a price of C$0.20 per Common Share, at a pre-determined exchange rate of $1.00:C$1.30, (iii) the interest is convertible at the option of the holder into Common Shares, based on a pre-determined exchange rate of $1.00: C$1.30, at a price per Common Share equivalent to the greater of C$0.20 and the Discounted Market Price (as defined by the Exchange) at the time of conversion, subject to acceptance of the Exchange, and (iv) the Company has the right of forced conversion with respect the principal if the trading price of the Common Shares exceeds C$0.20 for 10 consecutive trading days. On December 15, 2019, the Company prepaid an additional $838,486 of the principal and $12,517 of the interest on the Galaxy Debenture.

In addition, on March 29, 2016, the Company announced that it and its subsidiary, Galaxy, entered into a full and final settlement agreement with Traxys Europe SA, Mine2Market S.à.r.l. and certain others (collectively the “Traxys parties”) with respect to various outstanding claims arising from the time period when the Traxys parties operated Galaxy’s mining operations. In connection with the settlement, the Traxys parties settled their claim for $4.3 million of indebtedness in exchange for the issuance by the Company of an unsecured convertible debenture of approximately $3.2 million in aggregate principal (the “Traxys Debenture”). On June 29, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with applicable Traxys parties to replace the existing Traxys Debenture with an amended and restated debenture (the “A&R Debenture”). Under the terms of the A&R Debenture: (i) the principal is repayable on November 20, 2021 and is convertible at the option of the holder into Common Shares at a price of C$0.15 per Common Share, based on a pre-determined exchange rate of $1.00:C$1.35; (ii) interest is convertible at the option of the holder into Common Shares, based on a pre-determined exchange rate of $1.00:C$1.35, at a price equivalent to the greater of C$0.15 and the Discounted Market Price (as defined in the policies of the Exchange) at the time of conversion; (iii) the Company has a right of forced conversion with respect to the principal where the trading price of the Common Shares exceeds C$0.15 for 10 consecutive trading days; (iv) commencing January 1, 2018, interest for a calendar year will be due and payable on March 31 of the subsequent year, with the first such payment being due on March 31, 2019. The first payment of interest under the rescheduled agreement was made in April 2019.

On March 19, 2019, 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of Galaxy Gold Reefs (Pty) Ltd, was donated to a South African community-based trust and a South African local employee share scheme. The donation was made in relation to the BEE Requirement.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

During the period ended June 30, 2021, there were no related party transactions entered into.

On August 13, 2020, the Company entered into loan agreements with its CEO, COO and CFO (the “Executives”) as partial compensation for the services provided by the Executives in 2019.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION TO MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

CASH COSTS

The Company’s MD&A refers to operating cash cost per ounce, and operating cash cost excluding royalties per ounce, both non-GAAP performance measures, in order to provide investors with information about measures used by management to monitor performance. Management of the Company uses this information to assess how well the producing gold mines are performing compared to plan and prior periods, and also to assess the overall effectiveness and efficiency of gold mining operations. Cash cost figures are calculated in accordance with a standard developed by the Gold Institute, which was a worldwide association of suppliers of gold and gold products and included leading North American gold producers. The Gold Institute ceased operations in 2002, but the standard is still an accepted standard of reporting cash costs of gold production in North America. Adoption of the standard is voluntary, and the cost measures presented herein may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Cash cost includes mine site operating costs such as mining, processing, administration, but are exclusive of impairment, amortization, reclamation, and exploration and development costs. Operating cash cost is the total cash cost less those costs capitalized as attributable to the removal of excess waste in developing new resources. These costs are then divided by the Company’s ounces of gold produced to arrive at the cash cost measures on a per ounce basis. These measures, along with sales, are considered to be key indicators of a company’s ability to generate operating earnings and cash flow from its mining operations. These measures of cash costs do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and differ from measures determined in accordance with IFRS. They are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. These measures are not necessarily indicative of net earnings or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS.

The following tables provide a reconciliation of cash cost measures for the mine to the mining costs excluding impairment, depreciation and amortization reflected in the Annual Financial Statements.
