Description of Business

Great Atlantic Resources Corp., (“the Company”) is an exploration company engaged in exploration and evaluation of resources properties. In this regard, the Company's plan is to acquire properties of merit and take them through the exploration phase and hopefully through feasibility and on to construction and operations.

The Company has been focused on acquiring and exploring mineral properties in the Atlantic Canada region. This region was rich in historical mining with many past producing mines in the region that have seen little to no drilling or modern day exploration programs.

The Company is a reporting issuer in British Columbia and Alberta and its shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol GR.V.

Overall Performance

The level of the Company’s future operations will be determined by the availability of capital resources, which will be derived from the issuance of special warrants and future financings.

The Company has incurred losses since its inception and had an accumulated deficit of $32,057,332 as at May 31, 2025, which has been funded primarily by the issuance of shares. The Company has no source of operating cash flows and expects to incur further losses in the exploration and development of its mineral properties. The Company's ability to continue its operations and to realize assets at their carrying values is dependent upon obtaining additional financing or maintaining continued support from its shareholders and creditors and generating profitable operations in the future.

Activities of the Company are focusing on the development of mineral exploration projects in Atlantic Canada region, primarily through acquisitions.

On May 6, 2019, the Company acquired, through an option agreement and by subsequent staking, the Glenelg Vanadium Property, located in southwest New Brunswick. The property is now referred to by the Company as the Glenelg Gold – Antimony – Vanadium Property. Under the terms of the agreement, Great Atlantic may earn in a 100% interest in the property by making certain staged cash payments to the optionor over a five-year period as follows: (i) $10,000 in cash deposit (paid); (ii) $15,000 in cash on or before the first anniversary of the approval date (paid); (iii) $30,000 in cash on or before the second anniversary of the approval date (paid); (iv) $30,000 in cash on or before the third anniversary of the approval date; and (v) $40,000 on or before the fourth anniversary of the approval date; and (vi) $50,000 on or before the fifth anniversary of the approval date. In July, August and November 2023, the Company made three cash payments of $5,000 each for a total cash payment of $15,000. In November 2024, the Company paid $5,449 in cash to settle the third, fourth, and fifth option payments acquiring 100% interest in the property.

In the event Great Atlantic exercises, the Option and acquires a 100% right, title and interest in and to the Property, the Optionor shall thereafter be entitled to a 2.0% net smelter return, payable upon the commencement of Commercial Production.

Optionee shall have the right to purchase one-half (50%) of the NSR Royalty from Optionor at any time by payment to Optionor of $1,000,000, leaving Optionor with a 1.0% remaining NSR Royalty or in stages example $500,000 for ½ of a percentage.

The Glenelg Property covers four mineral claims with a total area of approximately 3,500 hectares. An outcrop grab sample collected by Great Atlantic in the southeast region of the property during 2018 due diligence sampling returned 0.188% V (0.33% V2O5), 10.3% TiO2 and 25.7% Fe. A Qualified Person collected the sample and verified the sample data. The sample was collected from a layered section of the Bocabec Gabbro. This sample was analyzed by ALS Canada Ltd. by Fusion XRF. During 2019, Great Atlantic conducted prospecting, a magnetic geophysical survey and diamond drilling (three holes). During 2020-2023, Great Atlantic conducted prospecting and rock sampling. A new antimony discovery was made during 2022 in the south-central region during which an outcrop grab sample (1.83 kilograms) from a vein returned 23.4% Sb. The sample was analyzed by ALS Canada Ltd. for gold by fire assay – AA and for 33 elements by four acid digestion and ICP-AES. The high-grade antimony sample was re-analyzed by XRF (following lithium borate fusion). The vein is approximately 0.6 meters wide at the location of the sample. This vein was sampled again during 2023 with four grab samples collected. The samples returned 13.75% Sb (6.36 kilograms), 13.70% Sb (4.94 kilograms), 2.98% Sb (6.34 kilograms) and 0.36% Sb (6.81 kilograms). The samples were analyzed by XRF (following lithium borate fusion) at ALS Canada Ltd. A 2023 outcrop grab sample from the south-central region returned 0.50 ppm gold. This sample was analyzed for gold by fire assay – AA by ALS Canada Ltd. Two 2023 rock samples (outcrop grab and a glacial float sample) from the northern region yielded anomalous lithium values (820 ppm and 920 ppm), the samples analyzed by ALS Canada Ltd. by four acid digestion and ICP-AES. The 2019-2023 programs were supervised by a Qualified Person.

Great Atlantic conducted additional prospecting and rock geochemical sampling during 2024. An outcrop grab sample from the same outcrop as the 2023 0.50 ppm gold sample (south-central region) returned 0.46 ppm gold. An outcrop grab sample from the northern region returned an anomalous value of 530 ppm lithium. The 2024 rock samples were analyzed by ALS Canada Ltd. for gold by fire assay – AA and for 34 elements by four acid digestion and ICP-AES. The 2024 program was supervised by a Qualified Person.

The Keymet Precious and Base Metal Project consists of two mineral claims covering approximately 3,340

img-3.jpeg

hectares and is named after a small past producing mine located on the property. The Keymet area first came to note in 1909. By the late 1940s, the Keymet polymetallic vein was reported to have been traced by drilling over a strike length of 341 meters with an average width of 2.4 meters. By 1954 a shaft had been sunk to a reported depth of 274 meters with drifts established on the 45, 91, and 137-meter levels. Production commenced in 1954 and by 1956, the shaft was down to the 366-meter level. Production ceased in 1956 when a fire destroyed the mine buildings. A total of 64,681 tons @ $0.25\%$ Cu, $2.44\%$ Pb, $2.59\%$ Zn and 0.99 opt Ag was reported to be produced between 1954 and 1956.

The Company conducted a trenching program during July 2015. The trenching program was conducted in the northwest region of the Project, targeting an area approximately $1.3 - 1.6$ kilometres northwest of the historic

Keymet Mine. Trenching was conducted in the area of the Elmtree 12 base metal and silver – bearing vein occurrence and an area of gold soil anomalies, gold bearing float and gold bearing trench bedrock as discovered by Great Atlantic during 2011 and 2012. A boulder sample collected previously by Company prospectors in this area returned 51 g/t Au. Nine trenches were excavated during 2015. Grab and channel samples of bedrock and grab samples of float in till were collected in some trenches and submitted to ALS Canada Ltd. for multi-element analysis and gold analysis. The samples were analyzed for gold by Fire Assay – Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) and analyzed for 33 elements (including silver, lead, zinc, copper, bismuth and molybdenum) by Four Acid, Inductively Coupled Plasma – Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-AES).

Trench 1 and Trench 6 were excavated at the documented location of the Elmtree 12 vein occurrence. Trench 1 exposed a northwest striking, sulfide-rich vein cutting meta-sediments. The vein appears to be sub-vertical to steeply dipping. Two adjacent 0.50-metres long channel samples were collected across the vein, perpendicular to its strike (samples were approximately 5 centimetres wide and 5 centimetres deep). The first channel sample returned 308 ppm silver (308 parts per million or grams / tonne Ag), 19,400 ppm copper (1.94% Cu) and 15,250 ppm zinc (1.525% Zn) over 0.50 metre length. This sample was elevated in bismuth (280 ppm Bi) and molybdenum (110 ppm Mo). The adjacent parallel channel sample returned 244 ppm Ag, 22,300 ppm Cu (2.23% Cu) and 13,600 ppm Zn (1.36% Zn) over 0.50 metre length. These samples may not represent true width of the vein. Two pieces of mineralized vein float were uncovered at the till – bedrock interface in this trench and west of (up ice direction) the mineralized vein. One piece of float (estimated to be 12 by 10 by 10 centimetres) returned 472 ppm Ag, 51,400 ppm Cu (5.14% Cu) and 76,100 ppm Zn (7.61% Zn). A sample from the second piece of float (approximately 30 by 30 by 20 centimetres) returned 324 ppm Ag, 33,100 ppm Cu (3.31% Cu) and 38,700 ppm Zinc (3.87% Zn). Trench 3 in this general area intersected a gold bearing zone with channel samples grading 1.1 g/t gold over 4.9 metres total length.

The Company conducted a diamond drilling program during November 2015 (four holes) in the northwest region of the property, northwest of the historic Keymet Mine. The drilling program tested two base metal and silver bearing vein occurrences, the Elmtree 12 and Elmtree 13 vein occurrences. The Elmtree 13 occurrence is also referred to as the Elmtree Silver Mine. The drilling program consisted of two holes testing the historic Elmtree Silver Mine vein occurrence and two holes testing the Elmtree 12 vein occurrence. Veins containing zinc, lead and / or copper base metal sulfides were intersected in all four holes. The Elmtree 12 vein occurrence is located approximately 1.4 kilometres northwest of the historic Keymet Mine and 0.5 kilometres north of the historic Elmtree Silver Mine. The two holes at the Elmtree 12 vein occurrence tested under the area of 2015 Trench 1 and included intersections (core length) of 16.68% Zn, 1.11% Cu and 152 g/t Ag over 1.80 meters; 8.68% Zn over 4.28 meters; and 3.28 g/t Au over 2.10 meters. A hole in the area of the Elmtree Silver Mine occurrence intersected 9.53% Zn, 9.01% Pb, 0.48% Cu and 66 g/t Ag over 0.51 meters core length.

The Company completed a diamond drilling program (five holes) during 2017 in the northwest region of the Keymet Property in the area of the Elmtree 12 occurrence. The program tested the continuation of zinc, copper and silver bearing veins and gold mineralization intersected during the 2015 diamond drilling and trenching programs. All five holes intersected veins hosting base metal sulphides while three holes also intersected arsenopyrite mineralization. Gold mineralization on the property is associated with arsenopyrite. Drill holes Ky-17-5, 6, 7 and 9 of the 2017 program were drilled in the same area as 2015 holes Ky-15-3 and 4. Each of these four holes intersected base metal bearing veins. Company management is interpreting the main veins at the Elmtree 12 occurrence to be within a steep dipping to vertical vein system striking approximately north-south, with all Great Atlantic drill intersections in this area as of the end of the 2017 program being within an approximately 70 m strike length and shallow (above 100 m vertical depth). Hole Ky-17-6 intersected local arsenopyrite within an approximate 50-meter core length interval appearing to be east to northeast of the main base metal bearing vein zone. Intersections (core length) include 5.42% Zn over 2.75 meters in Ky-17-5; 7.67% Zn, 1.57% Cu and 209 g/t Ag over 4.95 meters in Ky-17-6; and 0.699 g/t Au over 15.48 meters in Ky-17-6.

Hole Ky-17-8, located approximately 80 m southwest of holes Ky-17-5, 6 and 7, tested the down-dip extension of a gold bearing zone discovered by the company in a 2015 trench (channel samples returning 1.1 g/t Au over 4.9 meters). The gold bearing zone in the trench is characterized by minor arsenopyrite in meta-sediments and increased quartz veining. A fault zone is also exposed in the trench hosting base metal and silver mineralization (2015 grab sample returned 8.99% Pb, 1.76% Zn, 0.80% Cu and 237 g/t Ag). The hole intersected veins with base metal sulphides approximately vertically under the trench fault zone. The best intersection in Ky-17-8 is 18.79% Zn, 3.54% Cu, 1.15% Pb and 576 g/t Ag over 1.27 meters (core length).

The Company completed diamond drilling (13 holes) during 2018 in the same areas as the 2015 and 2017 drilling programs (area of Elmtree 12 occurrence). Veins hosting lead, zinc, copper and silver mineralization were


Great Atlantic
Management Discussion & Analysis, May 31, 2025

intersected. Intersections (core length) include 7.91% Zn and 77.2 g/t Ag over 3.27 meters in Ky-18-10; 4.07% Zn and 1.19% Cu over 5.73 meters in Ky-18-12; 9.04% Zn, 9.19% Cu, 2.16% Pb and 1,158 g/t Ag over 3.00 meters in Ky-18-14; and 12.08% Zn and 59.8 g/t Ag over 4.50 meters in Ky-18-14.

In Drill Hole Ky-18-14 at Elmtree 12 Vein System (9.04% Zn, 9.19% Cu and 1,158 g/t Ag over 3.00 meters core length)

The Company completed diamond drilling (10 holes) during 2021 in the northwest region of the Keymet Property, including some holes in the area of the Elmtree 12 and Elmtree 13 vein occurrences and some holes testing other targets. Drill hole Ky-21-25 intersected two near-surface gold bearing intervals (1.53 g/t Au over 0.63 meters core length and 3.17 g/t Au over 0.70 meters core length), west of the Elmtree 12 occurrence. Company management refer to this discovery as the Debler Zone. Drill hole Ky-21-27 intersected the Elmtree 12 base metal - silver bearing vein system, including 3.50% Zn, 3.26% Pb and 48 g/t silver over 0.92 meters core length. The drill core samples from the 2015, 2017, 2018 and 2021 program were analyzed by ALS Canada Ltd. for gold by Fire Asay - AAS and for silver, arsenic, copper, lead and zinc by Four Acid ICP-AES.

The Company conducted prospecting; rock and soil geochemical sampling; and / or geophysical surveys during 2015 - 2023 in the northwest region of the Keymet Property and prospecting and rock - soil geochemical sampling during 2020-2023 within the west-central region of the Keymet Property. Gold bearing glacial float and outcrop and gold soil anomalies were identified in the west-central region of the property. Highlights for 2022 - 2023 rock samples in the west-central region include $1.83\mathrm{g / t}$ Au (glacial float sample), $1.41\mathrm{g / t}$ Au (outcrop grab sample) and $0.98\mathrm{g / t}$ Au (outcrop grab sample) representing a new gold discovery. The combined 2021-2023 soil sampling in this region included identifying a zone of gold anomalies approximately 500 meters by 200-500 meters of which 39 of 44 samples within the zone returned anomalous gold values in the 0.005-0.067 ppm range and confirming gold and zinc anomalies in another area of which 21 or 41 samples along two sample lines returned 10-77 ppb Au and up to $850~\mathrm{ppm}$ Zn. The combined soil and rock sample analytical results define an approximately 1.5- kilometers long target trend for gold exploration in the west-central region of the property adjacent to the reported Melanson Brook Fault. A 2023 rock sample from glacial float from the northwest region (northwest of the Elmtree 12 occurrence) returned an anomalous value of $0.439~\mathrm{ppm}$ gold. Great Atlantic conducted additional prospecting and rock geochemical sampling in this area during 2024 including collecting an additional rock sample from the float from

Antimony bearing veins (stibnite) have been reported in the central part of the property in the area of the Woodstock Fault, a northeast trending, regional scale structure. This fault separates Cambro-Ordovician metasediments and mafic and felsic volcanics to the east side of the fault and Ordovician-Silurian age calcareous metasediments and limestones to the west. The Woodstock fault trends into the Gold-Antimony occurrence at Golden Ridge (located 13 kilometres southwest of the McDougal Road property). In the late 1990s Freewest Resources reported a sample of an antimony bearing vein in the central region of the McDougall Road property to return 11.6% Sb. The Company has not verified this reported vein.

The Company collected 219 soil samples during 2015 in the central region of the property. A total of 122 samples were submitted to ALS Canada Ltd. for analysis during 2015. These samples were from alternate traverses, including all samples from 5 traverses. The samples were analyzed for antimony by four acid and Inductively Coupled Plasma - Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). Thirty-one of the samples were also analyzed for gold by Fire Assay - AAS. The analytical results for these 122 samples define a narrow, approximate north to northeast trending zone of antimony soil anomalies. This zone covers a north - south distance of at least 800 metres and includes the area of an antimony bearing vein as reported by Freewest Resources. Analytical high values for these samples are 13.6, 23.8 and 62.8 ppm Sb. This zone is narrow varying from single sample antimony anomalies on two lines to multiple anomalous samples within 75 - 100 meters wide intervals on three lines. Three of the six soil samples from the southern - most traverse returned anomalous values of 5, 7 and 17 ppb Au. A Qualified Person supervised the 2015 sampling program and verified the sample data.

The Company conducted prospecting and magnetic and VLF-EM geophysical surveys at the McDougall Road Property during 2019. The Company also submitted 40 soil samples from the 2015 soil geochemical survey to ALS Canada Ltd. during January 2020. The samples were analyzed by the same methods as the 2015 analysis. The analyses further defined the zone of antimony anomalies with high values of 11.6 and 12.15 ppm Sb. The analyses revealed a few single-sample gold anomalies with up to 0.033 ppm Au. A Qualified Person supervised the submission of these soil samples to ALS Canada Ltd. The Company also conducted prospecting and rock geochemical sampling at the property during 2015-2023. Antimony mineralization (stibnite) was located in outcrop during 2023 within the central region of the property. Two samples at one location returned >10.000 ppm Sb and 2,250 ppm Sb by four acid digestion and ICP-AES analysis (by ALS Canada Ltd.), The sample exceeding 10,000 ppm Sb was re-analyzed by ALS Canada Ltd. by XRF (following lithium borate fusion), returning 1.56% Sb.

The drill core samples from the 2019-2024 drilling programs were analyzed at Eastern Analytical Ltd. Samples of main quartz veins and quartz veined zones were analyzed by the Total Pulp Metallics Fire Assay – AA. Some samples of meta-sediment with +/- quartz veins were assayed for gold by Fire Assay – AA. Samples were also analyzed for 34 elements by four acid digestion and ICP-OES. Blank and standard samples were included in the sample submissions to Eastern Analytical. Duplicate analysis was conducted for some samples.

The Company completed two drill holes (205 meters) during December 2024 in the west half of the Jaclyn Main Zone in the area of a planned bulk sample. This drilling was managed by Novamera Inc. These holes were drilled approximately down-dip (steeply to the southeast) to collect data on the Jaclyn Main Zone in this area. No core samples have been analyzed as of June 2025.

The Company conducted an excavator trenching program during 2024 within the southwest region of the property. Two trenches were excavated, and rock samples were collected. A sample from a piece of rubble from the eastern-most trench returned a highly anomalous value of 964 ppb gold. An outcrop grab sample from this trench returned an anomalous gold value of 481 ppb while also exceeding 10,000 ppm copper (>1% Cu). These samples were analyzed by Eastern Analytical Ltd. for gold by Total Pulp Metallics Fire Assay – AA. The copper analysis was by four acid digestions and ICP-OES.

The The property consists of eight mineral licences covering an area of 1,375 hectares and hosts the historic Pilley's Island Mine, which operated during the 1890s and early 1900s. Great Atlantic's focus has been the precious metal - base metal Bull Road showing, located in the northern region of the property. A trench excavated in 2017 at this showing exposed sulfide mineralization over a northwest-southeast length of 130m with a width varying between 1-7m. The Bull Road Showing is a polylithic slump breccia of volcanogenic massive sulphide mineralization containing massive sulphide clasts up to greater than a metre in length. The Company collected bedrock grab and channel samples during 2017 at this trench.

The best channel sample from the trench was 15.4% Zn, 6.6% Pb, 4.66% Cu, 111.5 g/t Ag and 1.0 g/t Au over a 1.05m length. The channel samples were collected across selected clasts at generally right angles to the long dimension of the clasts. Bedrock grab samples from the trench returned up to 40.8% Zn, 20.0% Pb, 8.38% Cu, 148.1 g/t Ag and 2.2 g/t Au. Qualified Persons supervised the 2017 sampling and verified the sample data. The samples were analyzed at Eastern Analytical in Springdale Newfoundland. The samples were analyzed for gold by Fire Assay - atomic absorption (AA); and for copper, lead, zinc and silver by multi-acid digestion and AA and / or ICP-OES.

The Company conducted prospecting and rock / soil geochemical sampling on the Pilley's Island property during 2018 - 2023, the work supervised by a Qualified Person. The highlight was two outcrop grab samples collected during 2020 in the northern region of the property, returning 1.09% Zn and 0.82% Pb; and 1.04% Zn and 0.81% Pb. These samples were analyzed by four acid digestion and ICP-OES at Eastern Analytical Ltd. The Company conducted additional prospecting and rock geochemical sampling at the Pilley's Island Property during 2024. The highlight was the discovery of semi-massive to massive sulfide mineralization in outcrop and subcrop at one site in the northern region of the property. Four samples returned 1.25% zinc, 11 ppm silver and 0.71 ppm gold (outcrop); 0.55% zinc, 5965 ppm copper and 19 ppm silver (outcrop); 4.36% zinc and 0.46 ppm gold (outcrop); and 3.11% zinc, 0.61% lead, 6499 ppm copper, 14 ppm silver and 1.32 ppm gold (subcrop), These samples were analyzed by fire assay - AA (gold) and four acid digestion and ICP-OES (including silver, zinc, lead and copper) at Eastern Analytical Ltd.

South Quarry Tungsten Property, Newfoundland, Canada

img-14.jpeg

During the year ended February 28, 2013, the Company entered into an option agreement whereby the Company has been granted an option to acquire a 100% interest in the South Quarry tungsten property. In consideration of the acquisition, the Company agreed to pay the vendor $135,000 cash (paid) and to issue 850,000 shares (issued) over four years. The Company earned a 100% interest in the property.

The property is situated 85 kilometres south of Bishops Falls in east-central Newfoundland and covers an area of 2,550 hectares (six mineral licences). The prospect includes two separate tungsten occurrences – the South Quarry which consists of scheelite bearing quartz-feldspar-mica (pegmatite) veins and the Camp Ten showing with reported stratiform scheelite in thin calc-silicate horizons within meta-sediments.

Exploration work in the area was primarily carried out by Kidd Creek Mines during the period 1983 to 1986. They conducted extensive ground magnetic, VLF-EM and IP surveys as well as till geochemistry, glacial studies, mapping, UV prospecting, stripping/trenching and 1,068 meters of diamond drilling in the two target areas, discovering tungsten mineralization. Since that time, little exploration work has been done in the area until that of Great Atlantic.

The Company employed the CARDS (Computer Aided Resource Detection System) technology, to further define potential Tungsten exploration targets on the property. This technology was developed by DIAGNOS Inc. a leader in the use of artificial intelligence and advanced knowledge-extraction techniques and makes possible the identification of sites having the same signature as known mineralized occurrences. DIAGNOS uses its proprietary technology to analyze geological, geophysical and geochemical to enable the identification of patterns hidden in the large amount of data each customer owns.

The Company conducted prospecting and rock / soil geochemical sampling on the property during 2015. The soil samples were submitted to ALS Canada Ltd. for tungsten analysis by Lithium Metaborate Fusion and Inductively Coupled Plasma – Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). Soil samples from multiple regions of the property returned anomalous tungsten values including some samples exceeding 100 ppm tungsten. A soil sample from the southern region of the property returned 1,380 ppm tungsten. Tungsten mineralization was confirmed in rubble and bedrock at two close-spaced quarries (including the South Quarry) in the northern region of the property during the 2015 rock sampling program. Multiple grab samples of quarry rubble returned greater than 5% WO3.

The Company conducted trenching (seven trenches) during 2016 in the northern region of the property, north to northeast of the South Quarry. Till and rock grab samples from multiple trenches returned anomalous values in tungsten with some rock samples exceeding 1,000 ppm WO3. Tungsten bearing veins were exposed in at least four trenches. The tungsten analysis was by Lithium Borate Fusion ICP-MS at ALS Canada Ltd.

The Company conducted additional prospecting and rock / soil geochemical sampling during 2017 – 2023. Tungsten bearing veins were located at a new location in the northeast region of the property during the 2019 program of which one outcrop grab sample returned 1.10% WO3 (Lithium Borate Fusion ICP-MS at ALS Canada Ltd.). Tungsten soil anomalies were identified during 2023. Qualified Persons supervised the 2015-2023 programs and verified sample data. The Company conducted additional prospecting and rock geochemical sampling during 2024 being supervised by a Qualified Person. Four rock samples from outcrop exposures in the northern region of

Over the last eight quarters, the Company has been exploring and acquiring property projects in Atlantic Canada and the majority of the loss each quarter relates to the expenditures incurred in maintaining the operations of the Company and indirect cost in supporting the Company's Projects.

Mineral exploration is typically a seasonal business, and accordingly, the Company's operating expenses, and cash requirements will fluctuate depending upon the season and the level of activity. The Company's primary source of funding is through the issuance of share capital. When the capital markets are depressed, the Company's activity level normally declines accordingly. As capital markets strengthen and the Company is able to secure equity financing with favorable terms, the Company's activity levels, and the size and scope of planned exploration projects will typically increase.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At May 31 2025, the Company had cash of $423 and working capital deficit of $4,476,073. All cash is deposited in interest accruing accounts.

  • The Company had cash of $423 as of May 31, 2025 compared to $812 as at May 31, 2024.
  • The Company received $59,000 (2024 - $95,100) in share subscription advances to be used for a future private placement.

The ability of the Company to continue is dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate future profitable operations and receive continued financial support from its creditors and shareholders, primarily by way of loans and from equity financing. The Company will need to raise or borrow money for its activities. Current sources of future funding are undetermined, and management will continue to review potential financings options as the need arises. There is no certainty that the Company will be able to receive continued financial support in the future. Existing working capital is expected to be enough to cover non-discretionary operating expenditures for the next twelve months.

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, exploration, and development of resource properties. The Board of Directors does not establish 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 manages its share capital as capital, which as at May 31, 2025 was $26,983,948 (February 28, 2025 – $26,969,948). Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable.

The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the year ended February 28, 2025.

Management Financial Risks

The fair value of the Company’s accounts receivable, share subscription receivable, loan receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and amounts due to related parties approximate their carrying value, which is the amount recorded on the consolidated statement of financial position. The Company’s other financial instruments, cash and marketable securities under the fair value hierarchy is recorded at fair value based on level one quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

The Company’s risk exposures and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below:

a) Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counterparty’s inability to fulfill its payment obligations. The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to amounts receivable. Management believes that the credit risk concentration with respect to financial instruments included in amounts receivable is not significant.

b) Liquidity Risk

The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have enough liquidity to meet liabilities when due. As at May 31, 2025, the Company has working capital deficit of $4,476,073. All of the Company’s financial liabilities have contractual maturities of less than 30 days and are subject to normal trade terms. The Company expects to fund those liabilities through the issuance of capital stock and loans from related parties over the coming year.

c) Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. Loans payable have a fixed interest rates and are short-term. Based on forecast interest rate movements and due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments, fluctuations in market rates are not expected to have a significant impact on estimated fair values.

d) Price Risk

The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to commodity and equity prices. Equity price risk is defined as the potential adverse impact on the Company’s earnings due to movements in individual equity prices or general movements in the level of the stock market. Commodity price risk is defined as the potential adverse impact on earnings and economic value due to commodity price movements and volatilities. The Company closely monitors commodity prices of oil and natural gas, individual equity movements, and the stock market to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.

Risk and Uncertainties

The Company’s operations and results are subject to a number of different risks at any given time. These factors include but are not limited to disclosure regarding exploration, additional financing, project delay, titles to properties, price fluctuations and share price volatility, operating hazards, insurable risk and limitations of insurance, management, foreign country and regulatory requirements, currency fluctuations and environmental regulation risk.

(a) the state of the capital markets, which will affect the ability of the Company to finance further mineral property acquisitions and expand its contemplated exploration programs;
(b) the prevailing market prices for base metals and precious metals;
(c) the consolidation and potential abandonment of the Company’s property as exploration results provide further information relating to the underlying value of the property;
(d) the ability of the Company to identify and successfully acquire additional mineral properties in which the Company may acquire an interest whether by option, joint venture or otherwise, in addition to or as an alternative to the property

Other risk factors

Nature of Mineral Exploration and Mining

There is no known economic recoverable mineral resource upon any of the Principal Properties. Development of any of the Principal Properties will follow only upon obtaining satisfactory exploration results. Mineral exploration and development involve a high degree of risk and of those properties which are explored, few are developed into producing mines. The Company provides no assurance that its mineral exploration and development activities will result in any discoveries of bodies of commercial ore. The long-term profitability of the Company’s operations will be in part directly related to the cost and success of its exploration programs, which may be affected by several factors out of the Company’s control.

Mineral Deposits and Productions Costs; Metal Prices

Many factors affect the economics of developing mineral deposits, including variations in ore grade, cost of operations, and price fluctuations in of products sold. Metal prices heavily influence the value of the Principal Properties. Metal prices can and do change by substantial amounts over short periods of time and are affected by numerous factors beyond the Company’s control, including changes in supply and demand, international economic and political trends, inflation, currency exchange fluctuations, interest rates and global or regional consumption patterns, speculative activities and increased production arising from improved mining and production methods and new discoveries. The Company

provides no assurance that the prices of mineral products will be enough to ensure that any of the Principal Properties can be mined profitably.

Depending on the price received for minerals produced, the Company may determine that it is impractical to commence or continue commercial production. The grade of any ore ultimately mined from a mineral deposit may differ from that predicted by drilling results.

Additional Financing

The Company has limited financial resources and provides no assurance that it will obtain additional funding for further exploration and development of its projects or to fulfill its obligations under applicable agreements. The Company provides no assurance that it will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that the terms of such financing will be favourable. Failure to obtain such additional financing could result in delay or indefinite postponement of further exploration and development of the Company's Properties with the possible dilution or loss of such interests. Further, revenues, financings, and profits, if any, will depend upon various factors, including the success, if any, of exploration programs and general market conditions for natural resources. The Company provides no assurance that it can operate profitably or that it will successfully implement its plans for its further exploration and development of its properties.

Permits and Licenses

The Company will require licenses and permits from various governmental and non-governmental authorities for its operations. The Company has obtained or plans to obtain all necessary licenses and permits required carrying on the activities it is currently conducting or which it proposes to conduct under applicable laws and regulations. However, such licenses and permits are subject to change in regulations and in various operating circumstances. The Company provides no assurance that it will obtain all necessary licenses and permits required to carry out exploration, development, and mining operations.

Political Regulatory Risks

Any changes in government policy may result in changes to laws affecting ownership of assets, mining policies, monetary policies, taxation, rates of exchange, environmental regulations, and labour relations, repatriation of income and return of capital. This may affect both the Company's ability to undertake exploration and development activities in respect of the Principal Properties in the manner currently contemplated, as well as its ability to continue to explore, develop and operate the Principal Properties. The possibility that future governments may adopt substantially different policies, which might extend to expropriation of assets, cannot be ruled out.

Currency Risk

Currency fluctuations may affect the cash flow which the Company may realize from its operations, since most mineral commodities are sold in a world market in United States dollars. The Company's costs are incurred primarily in Canadian dollars.

Dependence on Key Individuals

The Company is dependent on a relatively small number of key personnel, the loss of any one of whom could have an adverse effect on the Company. In addition, the Company will be highly dependent upon contractors and third parties in the performance of its exploration and development activities. The Company provides no guarantee that such contractors and third parties will be available to carry out such activities on behalf of the Company or be available upon commercially acceptable terms.

Competitive Factors in the Precious and Base Metals Markets

Most mineral resources including precious and base metals are essentially commodities markets in which we would expect to be a small producer with an insignificant impact upon world production. As a result, production, if any, would be readily sold and would likely have no impact on world market prices. In recent months due to the significant downturn in the world economies has driven the commodities prices much lower which has made raising capital more difficult more competitive than past years.

Forward-Looking Information

This MD&A, which contains certain forward-looking statements, are intended to provide readers with a reasonable basis for assessing the financial performance of the Company. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. The words "believe", "expect", "anticipate", "contemplate", "target", "plan", "intends",

"continue", "budget", "estimate", "may", "will", "schedule" and similar expressions identify forward looking statements. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by the Company, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies.

Known and unknown factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to, fluctuations in the currency markets such as Canadian dollar, and U.S. dollar, fluctuations in the prices of commodities, changes in government legislation, taxation, controls, regulations and political or economic developments in Canada, the United States, or other countries in which the Company carries or may carry on business in the future, risks associated with mining or development activities, the speculative nature of exploration and development, including the risk of obtaining necessary licenses and permits, and quantities or grades of reserves. Many of these uncertainties and contingencies can affect the Company's actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, the Company.

Readers are cautioned that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those acknowledged in such statements. Specific reference is made to the Company's most recent Annual Information Form on file with Canadian provincial securities regulatory authorities for a discussion of some of the factors underlying forward-looking statements. The Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by applicable laws.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and the Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") of the Company, together with the Company's management, are responsible for the information disclosed in this MD&A and in the Company's other external disclosure documents. For the year ended February 28, 2017, the CEO and the CFO have designed, or caused to be designed under their supervision, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures ("DCP") to provide reasonable assurance that material information relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries has been disclosed in accordance with regulatory requirements and good business practices and that the Company's DCP will enable the Company to meet its ongoing disclosure requirements. The CEO and CFO have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures and have concluded that the design and operation of the Company's DCP were effective as of March 31, 2011 and that the Company has the appropriate DCP to ensure that information used internally by management and disclosed externally is, in all material respects, complete and reliable.

The CEO and the CFO are also responsible for the design of the internal controls over financial reporting ("ICFR") within the Company in order to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").

During the design and evaluation of the Company's ICFR, management identified certain nonmaterial deficiencies, a number of which have been addressed or are in the process of being addressed in order to enhance the Company's processes and controls. The Company employs entity level and compensating controls to mitigate any deficiencies that may exist in its process controls. Management intends to continue to further enhance the Company's ICFR.

The Company's management, including its CEO and CFO, believe that any DCP and ICFR, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, they cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been prevented or detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by unauthorized override to the future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. There have been no changes in the Company's ICFR during the year ended February 28, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's ICFR.
