BUSINESS OF MINERA ALAMOS

Minera Alamos is a base and precious metals enterprise currently dedicated to acquiring, exploring and developing mining projects in Mexico.

The Company was incorporated pursuant to the laws of the Province of Ontario in January, 1934. Through various actions at the end of the 1990’s up to 2006, the Company reorganized itself and amalgamated various subsidiaries to establish its current form. Subsequently, four subsidiaries were acquired– Minera Alamos de Sonora S.A. de C.V.; Molibdeno Los Verdes S.A. de C.V.; Cobre 4H S.A. de C.V.; and Minera Mirlos, S. de R.L. de C.V.,

On May 4, 2016, the Company announced the completion of the acquisition of 100% of the mineral claims known as the “La Fortuna” gold project located in the State of Durango, Mexico from Argonaut Gold Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary Durango Fern Mines, S.A. de C.V. The project is currently in development and it is expected that a construction decision, if deemed appropriate by management, can be made in 2021.

On April 13, 2018, the Company acquired Corex Gold Corporation (“Corex”) as approved by Corex shareholders pursuant to a special meeting held on April 4, 2018. Under the terms of the Agreement, each Corex shareholder received 0.95 common shares of Minera Alamos Inc. in exchange for each Corex share held. The business combination was completed by way of share exchange pursuant to a statutory plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) resulting in Corex becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Minera

==> picture [91 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

Alamos Inc. Pursuant to the transaction, the Company issued 150,470,661 common shares valued at $0.14 to the former shareholders of Corex. In connection with this transaction, the Company also issued 22,985,725 warrants valued at $689,886 and issued 6,935,000 share purchase options valued at $798,000 in exchange for the cancelation of Corex warrants and options outstanding. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes valuation model using the following weighted assumptions: expected dividend yield 0%, expected volatility 77% risk free rate of return 2.0% and an expected life of 1.13 years. The options were valued using the Black-Scholes valuation model using the following weighted averaged assumptions: expected dividend yield 0%, expected volatility 123% risk free rate of return 2.0% and an expected life of 3.26 years.

The Company is engaged in the acquisition and exploration of precious metal properties located in Mexico. To date, the Company has not earned significant revenues during a test mining program. The Company’s primary focus is the exploration and development of its Santana Project in Sonora, Mexico. The Santana property is located about two and a half hours drive northeast of the City of Obregon, accessible via blacktop road. Obregon has regular air service nonstop to Hermosillo and Guadalajara. The project is 100% owned and is approximately 3,500 ha. A pre-commercial bulk sample was mined and processed in 2018 and early 2019. A construction decision was made by management in Q1 2020 and while there were some initial delays caused by the COVID 19 pandemic during the initial preparation and preconstruction activity, full construction activities are ongoing at this time.

COVID-19

The global outbreak of COVID-19 (coronavirus), has had a significant impact on businesses through restrictions put in place by the Canadian and Mexican governments regarding travel, business operations and isolations/quarantine orders. At this time it is unknown the extent of the impact the COVID-19 outbreak may have on the Company as this will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and that cannot be predicted with confidence. These uncertainties arise from the inability to predict the ultimate geographic spread of the disease and the duration of the outbreak, including the duration of travel restrictions, business closures or disruptions and quarantine/isolation measures that are currently, or may be put, in place by Canada, Mexico and other countries to fight the virus. While the extent of the impact is unknown, we anticipate that this outbreak may cause supply chain disruptions, staff shortages and increased government regulations, all of which may negatively impact the Company’s business and financial condition.

La Fortuna

On May 4, 2016, the Company announced the completion of the acquisition of 100% of the mineral claims known as the “La Fortuna” gold project located in the State of Durango, Mexico from Argonaut Gold Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary Durango Fern Mines, S.A. de C.V. The La Fortuna Gold Project includes the historic La Fortuna mine together with the surrounding concessions, totaling 994 hectares. The property is located in the northwestern corner of the State of Durango, Mexico, about 70 kilometers northeast of the city of Culiacan, Sinaloa.

In August 2016, the Company announced that it had acquired more than 5,400 hectares in additional mineral concessions surrounding the La Fortuna gold project. The new claims were acquired directly from the federal mining authorities in Mexico (Dirección General de Minas) with no payments to any other third parties, increasing the Company’s total land package to over 6,400 hectares.

In 2018 the Company announced the results of an independent Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”). The PEA was prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) by CSA Global Geosciences Canada Ltd (CSA Global) of Toronto, Canada.

2. “Mineralized Material” represents mined material in excess of 0.8 g/t Au cut-off (includes direct milling material + stockpiled material to be upgraded via ore sorting prior to milling)

Mineral Resources

This PEA is based on a new mineral resource estimate prepared for the La Fortuna project by Scott Zelligan, P.Geo., as part of the current report. The mineral resource estimate is based on the results from 125 core drill holes completed to date on the project. Wireframes were prepared using the drill hole information combined with geological interpretations of the deposit and validated through observations and sampling of accessible historical underground openings. Further details related to the current mineral resource estimate are presented in a later section. The table below outlines the total base case Mineral Resources, including those that were not included as part of the PEA mine plan.

Notes:

1. The effective date for this mineral resource estimate for La Fortuna project is July 13, 2018. All material tonnes and metal values are undiluted.

2. Mineral Resources are calculated assuming a cut-off grade of 1.0 g/t Au, which is considered reasonable and consistent for this type of deposit with open pit mining methods.

3. Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues.

4. The mineral resources presented here were estimated using a block model with a parent block size of 5 m by 5 m by 5 m sub-blocked to a minimum block size of 0.6 m by 0.6 m by 0.6 m using ID3 methods for grade estimation as this method best represented the grade distribution in the sample data.

5. Due to the geometry of the deposit and the nature of the grade distribution, the estimation was divided between the upper and lower portions of the mineralized volume with search parameters optimized for each portion.

6. Individual composite assays were capped at the following values according to histogram/probability and decile analyses – 30 g/t gold, 60 g/t silver, 1% copper

7. A density of 2.65 t/m[3] was chosen for the tonnage estimate. Data available from dry bulk density studies indicated an average density of 2.72 t/m[3] for mineralized material, while the quartz monzonite material had an average density of 2.61 t/m[3] . The value of 2.65 was chosen by averaging the two then rounding down to the nearest 0.05 interval to be conservative

8. The mineral resources presented here were estimated using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM), CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves, Definitions and Guidelines prepared by the CIM Standing Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by CIM Council May 10, 2014.

9. The mineral resource estimate was prepared by Scott Zelligan, B.Sc., P.Geo., and independent resource geologist of Coldwater, Ontario.

10. Gold price is US$1,250/ounce, silver price is US$16/ounce, and copper price is US$5,725/tonne.

11. The number of metric tonnes is rounded to the nearest hundred. Any discrepancies in the totals are due to rounding effects.

An initial review of the most recent exploration data from the La Fortuna gold project confirms potential for growth beyond the project’s current Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources. Three distinct zones of mineralization were identified along parallel structures that correspond to the primary regional faulting in this region of Mexico (NW-SE). In addition to the Fortuna Main Zone (and extensions) where the Company’s current resource is located, these also include the Ramada Zone and the PN Zone. All three areas contain numerous historical mine workings and have been sampled and mapped at surface. Defining the continuity of the mineralization throughout these extended zones will be the focus of the Company’s upcoming exploration activities.

Two permit applications were submitted and have been granted for the La Fortuna project. They consist of the Environmental Impact Statement (Manifestacion de Impacto Ambriental) and an Environmental Risk Study (Estudio de Riesgo Ambiental).

In May 2017, additional rights and options were granted on La Fortuna in connection with a private placement. The Subscriber and the Company entered into an investment agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) which provides for the following:

• Royalty Option : The Subscriber was granted an option to purchase up to a 4.0% NSR in the La Fortuna Property for total consideration of $9 million.

• Royalty/Stream Right : As long as the Subscriber holds common shares equal to at least 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company, on a nondiluted basis, the Subscriber will have a participation right on any and all royalties, streams, or similar interests granted on properties belonging to Minera Alamos.

Santana

The Company holds a 100% interest through its subsidiary, Corex Gold Corporation in 9 mining claims covering approximately 3,100 hectares located approximately 200 kilometres eastsoutheast of Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico accessible via paved highway.

Additionally, the Company holds a 100% interest in two contiguous mining concessions that cover approximately 350 hectares, referred to as Santa Lucia and Hilda 35 Fraccion 1, also part of the Santana Project pursuant to two property option agreements dated December 11, 2007, and an amending agreement dated January 20, 2012, between the Company and private vendors. The Hilda 35 Fraccion 1 is also subject to a 2% net smelter return royalty (“NSR”). Each 1% NSR can be purchased for USD $1,000,000 within the three years following the conclusion of the feasibility study with positive results, in two contiguous mining concessions referred to as Santa Lucia and Hilda 35 Fraccion 1, located in Sonora State, Mexico, pursuant to two property option agreements dated December 11, 2007, and amending agreement dated January 20, 2012, between Corex and private vendors.

To date more than 30,000 meters of drilling has been completed on the project. A phase 1 drilling program was completed at Santana ( see news release dated May 3[rd] , 2018 ) following the receipt of successful community approvals associated with combining Minera Alamos’ Los Verdes contiguous on strike claim into the Santana plan of development.

A bulk test mining program and heap-leach test was completed on the project in 2019. An initial test phase utilized coarse crushing (<3”) with a second phase involving fine crushing (<1/2” to 5/8”) and agglomeration prior to leaching. Crush size will ultimately be fine tuned to maximize future profitability. In total, approximately 50,000 tonnes of mineralized material was placed on the test leach pads and the results of the bulk test work fully support the ongoing development of the project with a goal towards commercial scale operation. Cumulative reagent consumptions for the bulk test are low amounting to <0.20 kg/t for both cyanide and lime.

The test mining program produced approximately 1,100 oz of gold and 225 oz of Silver. As this was a test mining program all revenue from the sales of gold and silver produced has been credited to exploration and evaluation expenditures.

Bulk test mining operations at the Santana project were governed by a temporary environment/change of land use permit (MIA-ETJ) that was issued by SEMARNAT in 2016. The temporary permits covered changes made to a limited area of the project site which was consistent with the scope of the test activities.

In Q4 of 2019 The Company received the MIA (Manifestacion de Impacto Ambiental or “Environmental Impact Statement”) permit approval from the Federal Agency (Secretaria de Medio Ambiente y Recursos Naturales – SEMARNAT), for the development of the Company’s Santana gold project (“Santana”) in Sonora, Mexico. Together with the previously announced ( see Company News Release dated June 27, 2019) change of land use notification, the receipt of the authorized MIA documentation provides the Company with the key approvals necessary for the construction of a commercial scale mine and gold heap leach processing facilities at the Santana project site. The Santana MIA-ETJ applications were structured to provide the Company with significant flexibility to further optimize the development approach for the project and the ability to expand the project operations organically once resources are increased. The recently approved documents cover the following activities:

• Approximately 73 hectares approved for mining use in the MIA which includes the required areas for initial development of the Nicho and Nicho Norte gold deposits as well as the related gold extraction and recovery facilities.

• The MIA remains in good standing for a period of 33 years which covers the potential construction, operations and closure stages for the project.

• The scope of the Operating Permit includes the two initial open pit mines, waste dump areas, crushing, heap leach pad, leach solution ponds, gold recovery facilities and all related infrastructure.

• The MIA remains conditional on a series of standard conditions from SEMARNAT that are included to protect and monitor the environment and must be implemented by

the Company in order to satisfy the permit requirements. In addition, the Company awaits the final issuance of the approved ETJ (Estudio Tecnico Justificativo) permit which follows the payment for the change of land use (completed June 2019).

The receipt of the MIA permit for Santana allows the Company to initiate applications for other state/local permits that will be required in advance of any commercial mine production. These lesser permits cover activities such as water use and explosives. While certain state and local permits are required to commence mining operations, the successful completion of the MIAETJ permit process allowed the Company to commence all necessary earthworks and construction activities in advance of mining operations.

In early 2021, the Company announced the completion of all civil works related to the construction of the gold recovery (carbon) plant, solution ponds and heap leach pad. The Company has selected TRIGUSA as it’s mining contractor for the Santana project and finalized a contract that will cover all mining activities for the project from drilling and blasting to transport and loading of mineralized material onto the pads for gold leaching operations.

During the second half of 2019 and early 2020 the Company commenced and completed a Phase 2 drill program at Santana. The program had a dual focus; resource expansion drilling at the main Nicho deposit as well as follow-up drilling on several new discoveries made during Phase 1 work done in 2018. As a result of a successful Phase 2 drill program a Phase 3 drilling program of approximately 6,000-7,000 m is expected to commence in mid 2021. Phase 3 drilling will include further pit optimization drilling around the main Nicho pipe as well as the initial drill testing of a number of newly identified Nicho-like pipes on the property.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company completed the sale of a perpetual 3% net smelter royalty on the Santana property for a gross cash payment of $5,000,000.

Additionally, during the year, the Company’s judgement of the stage of the project changed. The Company determined the Santana Project is commercially viable and technically feasible, which resulted in them prospectively capitalizing all expenditure incurred on the project.

Cerro de Oro

In September 2020 the Company finalized definitive option agreements with arm’s length parties to acquire 100% of the Cerro de Oro project comprising the Zacatecas I and Zacatecas II concessions near Concepcion del Oro, Zacatecas, Mexico . The acquisition of the two core claims in the district that contain a significant gold prospect increase the Company’s total claim holdings in the Concepcion del Oro district to approximately 6,500 ha in size. The two concessions are bounded by existing Minera Alamos concessions and the overall package is surrounded by a larger claim owned by the Company providing all the necessary land that would be required to facilitate the development of the deposit.

The agreements convey 100% ownership to the Company with no underlying royalties subject to meeting a schedule of payments. Failure by the Company to make any of the cash payments or share issuances would result in the property being returned to the vendors with no residual interest being retained by the Company. The payment schedule is as follows:

12

==> picture [91 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

Amount($US)	Installment Due Date
400,000 cash + 2,000,000 shares(b)	Paid on Closing
300,000 cash(a)+ 500,000 shares(b)	12 months from Closing
400,000 cash(a)+ 500,00 shares(b)	24 months from Closing
800,000 cash(a)+ 500,000 shares(b)	36 months from Closing
1,000,000 cash(a)+ 500,000 shares(b)	48 months from Closing

a) Installment payments will be in the form of cash. Alternately, should both parties agree a portion or the entire cash amount can be replaced with the issuance of an equivalent dollar value of shares. Shares, if issued, will be priced at prior days closing on the Exchange, ending on the Installment Date listed in the table above and in accordance with the rules and requirements of securities laws and the TSX Venture Exchange.

b) Payments in shares are subject to any and all restrictions on resale under applicable securities laws and TSX Venture Exchange requirements, typically being a hold period of four months and a day following the date of issue and any and all legending requirements. Should the Vendor elect to sell or dispose of any of the Payment Shares they will give Minera Alamos at least 10 business days advance notice to help facilitate such sales.

c) The Company paid $400,000 USD on signing of this agreement and the Company issued 2,000,000 shares on September 17, 2020. The fair value of these shares was $1,440,000.

In addition to the earn-in commitments in the table above, a final bonus payment of US$1,000,000 will be payable to the Vendor upon the production of 50,000 ounces of gold from the Cerro de Oro project.

Mineral Resource Estimate

A technical report (NI 43-101 compliant) was prepared which estimates the Cerro de Oro Project, using a gold price of US$1,450/oz and a cut-off grade of 0.18 g/t, has an Inferred Mineral Resource of 48 million tonnes grading 0.41 g/t gold or 630,000 ounces of contained gold. Table 1 shows the Inferred Mineral Resource estimate for the Cerro de Oro Project. (Note to reader: unless stated all currency, references are in US dollars)

Table 1 – Cerro de Oro Project, Estimate of Mineral Resources

Resource Category	Material **Type **	Cut-off Au(g/t)	Tonnes (t)	Au (g/t)	Au (oz)
Inferred	Oxide	0.18	48,000,000	0.41	630,000

Notes:

• The effective date for this mineral resource estimate is November 16, 2020. All material tonnes and metal values are undiluted.

• The mineral resource estimate was prepared under the supervision of Scott Zelligan, P.Geo, an independent consulting geologist.

• Mineral Resources which are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues.

• The Mineral Resources presented herein were estimated using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM), CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves, Definitions

13

==> picture [91 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

and Guidelines prepared by the CIM Standing Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by CIM Council November 29[th] , 2019.

• The number of metric tonnes has been rounded to the nearest million. Any discrepancies in the totals are due to rounding effects.

• A gold price of $1,450/oz was used in the calculation of the Mineral Resources.

• The limits of the Resource constraining pit shell assumed a mining cut-off based on a total operating cost (mining, milling, and G&A) of $8.80/tonne stacked, a metallurgical recovery of 70%, and a constant open pit slope angle of 45 degrees. This constraining pit shell contained a total volume of 59 million tonnes. Inferred resources are too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them.

• The Inferred Mineral Resource is calculated assuming an internal cut-off grade of 0.18 g/t Au, which is considered reasonable and consistent for this type of deposit assuming a heap leach / open pit operation.

• A density of 2.55 t/m[3] was chosen to estimate the tonnage for the oxide materials. A density of 2.70 t/m[3] was used in fresh rock.

The Cerro de Oro Project is a porphyry gold system with associated skarn halos and disseminated and veinlet-controlled gold mineralization characterized by the development of magnetite and quartz veins (A and B veins). These veins developed during an early potassic alteration phase and were later overprinted by silica and sericite (phyllic overprinting) within the inter-mineral porphyritic intrusive phases that form part of a larger intrusive complex.

The inaugural resource estimate incorporates a total of 84 reverse circulation (RC) drill holes (7,112 metres) and twelve diamond drill holes (3,786 metres) including 50 RC holes (4,272 metres) drilled by Minera Mexico Pacific S.A. de C.V in 2017 and 2018 and 34 RC holes (2,840 metres) drilled by Noranda. All of the diamond drill holes were completed by Noranda from 1996 through 1998. Drilling to date has focused on the oxide zone with the majority of oxide holes drilled to depths of 60 to 160 metres. The diamond drill holes were drilled to depths of 80m to 645m to identify mineralization at depth.

Guadalupe de los Reyes (GDR)

In November 2017, The Company entered into an option agreement to acquire the GDR project. GDR is a gold-silver project located in the Sierra Madre Range in Sinaloa, Mexico and approximately 3 hours from the Company's base of operations in Culiacan. It is one of the most significant historic gold producers in this region of Mexico and contains a near surface gold resource consisting of 380,100 Indicated ounces (6.8 MM tonnes @ 1.73 g/t Au) with an additional 155,200 Inferred ounces (3.2 MM tonnes @ 1.49 g/t Au), in addition to significant exploration potential from previously identified mineralized structures that remain undrilled. The project consists of over 15,000 hectares of contiguous land holdings surrounding the historic Guadalupe de los Reyes mine. GDR is a large regional system of epithermal mineralized structures with at least eight zones of mineralization mapped and sampled at surface, with only four having been partially drilled.

On April 22, 2019 the Company entered into a binding letter agreement with Prime Mining Corp. (“Prime”) (formerly ePower Metals Inc.") that outlined the terms and conditions upon which the Company assigned its option rights to acquire the Guadalupe de los Reyes gold

14

==> picture [91 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

property ("Los Reyes") in exchange for approximately 19.8% of the outstanding Prime common shares and certain other rights related to the development of Los Reyes (the "Transaction").

In addition, the following conditions were satisfied by Prime and the Company at the time of the transaction:

• Should Prime fail to complete any of the remaining Los Reyes option payments all rights to acquire Los Reyes will revert to the Company.

• A cash payment of US$1,500,000 was made to the Company for the cost of the option payment the Company made to Vista on April 23, 2019.

• Prime assumed the Company' remaining option payments of US$3,000,000 in favour of Vista

• Prime issued to the Company 9,450,000 common shares and 3,350,000 common share purchase warrants of Prime at a price $0.50 per share for a period of twenty-four months.

• • Prime entered into a governance agreement, providing for, among other things, Minera Alamos receiving the right to appoint one director to the board of ePower for so long as the Company holds at least 5% of Prime's outstanding common shares and the Company is entitled to a right of first refusal in the event Prime should at any time seek to raise financing to develop Los Reyes by way of the sale or grant of a royalty or stream.

Los Verdes

The Los Verdes property is located in the community of Santa Ana, municipality of Yecora, in the state of Sonora, Mexico. It is situated approximately 200 kilometres east-southeast of Hermosillo, the capital of Sonora and 190 kilometres northeast of Ciudad Obregon.

The Company is currently considering strategic alternatives for this project based on current industry/market expectations and a resizing of the planned operation.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Disclosure and use of critical accounting estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are reviewed periodically, and as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the period in which they become known.

16

==> picture [91 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

Readers should refer to Note 4 of the consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, for a summary of critical accounting policies and estimates.

Accounting standards and interpretations effective during the year

IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements (“IAS 1”) and IAS 8 – Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors (“IAS 8”) were amended in October 2018 to refine the definition of materiality and clarify its characteristics. The revised definition focuses on the idea that information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2020. Earlier adoption is permitted.

IFRS 3 – Business Combinations (“IFRS 3”) was amended in October 2018 to clarify the definition of a business. This amended definition states that a business must include inputs and a process and clarified that the process must be substantive and the inputs and process must together significantly contribute to operating outputs. In addition it narrows the definitions of a business by focusing the definition of outputs on goods and services provided to customers and other income from ordinary activities, rather than on providing dividends or other economic benefits directly to investors or lowering costs and added a test that makes it easier to conclude that a company has acquired a group of assets, rather than a business, if the value of the assets acquired is substantially all concentrated in a single asset or group of similar assets. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2020. Earlier adoption is permitted.

IFRS 3 – Business Combinations (“IFRS 3”) and IFRS 11 – Joint Arrangements (“IFRS 11”) were amended in December 2017. IFRS 3 was amended to clarify that when a party to a joint arrangement obtains control of a business that is a joint operation, it re-measures previously held interests in that business. IFRS 11 was amended to clarify that when a party that participates in, but does not have joint control of, a joint operation obtains joint control of a business that is a joint operation, the entity does not re-measure previously held interests in that business.

IFRS 10 – Consolidated Financial Statements (“IFRS 10”) and IAS 28 – Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (“IAS 28”) were amended in September 2014 to address a conflict between the requirements of IAS 28 and IFRS 10 and clarify that in a transaction involving an associate or joint venture, the extent of gain or loss recognition depends on whether the assets sold or contributed constitute a business. The effective date of these amendments is yet to be determined, however early adoption is permitted.

RISK FACTORS

Due to the nature of its business, the Company is subject to various financial, environmental and operational risks that should be carefully considered by readers. In addition to other information set forth elsewhere in the financial statements, readers should carefully review the following risk factors.

17

==> picture [91 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

Future Capital Requirements Risk

The Company will require additional financing in order to grow and expand its operations. It is possible that required future financing will not be available or, if available, will not be available on favourable terms. If the Company issues new shares at any time to finance its operations or expansion plans, control of the Company may change and shareholders may suffer dilution of their investment. 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.

Exploration, Development and Mining Risk

Resource exploration, development and operations are highly speculative, characterized by a number of significant risks, which even a combination of careful evaluation, experience and knowledge may not eliminate including, among other things, unprofitable efforts resulting not only from the failure to discover mineral deposits but from finding mineral deposits which, though present, are insufficient in quantity and quality to return a profit from production. Unusual or unexpected formations, formation pressures, fires, power outages, labour disruptions, flooding, explosions, cave-ins, landslides and the inability to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment or labour are other risks involved in the operation of mines and the conduct of exploration programs. The Company will for the short term rely upon consultants and others for exploration, development, construction and operating expertise. Substantial expenditures are required to establish mineral resources and mineral reserves through drilling, to develop metallurgical processes to extract the metal from mineral resources and, in the case of new properties, to develop the mining and processing facilities and infrastructure at any site chosen for mining.

The Company's projects are at the exploration and development stage. Los Verdes, has a defined resource determined by a Preliminary Economic Assessment to be potentially economic. A second project, La Fortuna, has defined resources as determined by a technical report detailing the calculation of a resource estimate. Development of the Company's projects would follow only if additional favorable results, regulatory approval and financing are obtained.

The business of exploration for minerals and mining involves a high degree of risk. Few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines.

No assurance can be given that minerals will be discovered in sufficient quantities to justify commercial operations or that funds required for development can be obtained on a timely basis. Whether a mineral deposit will be commercially viable depends on a number of factors, some of which are: the particular attributes of the deposit, such as size, grade and proximity to infrastructure; metal prices, which are highly cyclical; and government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use, importing and exporting of minerals, environmental protection and others. The exact effect of these factors cannot

18

==> picture [91 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

accurately be predicted, but the combination of these factors may result in the Company not receiving an adequate return on invested capital.

The Company carefully evaluates the political and economic environment in considering any properties for acquisition and continued advancement of projects it holds, and its current strategy is to pursue projects in the mining friendly environment of Mexico. There can be no assurance that additional significant restrictions will not be placed on the Company’s projects and any other properties the Company may acquire, or its operations.

Environmental Risk

The Company’s projects are in remote areas of Mexico where mining has been carried out in the past and where it is currently being pursued. Its projects will be undertaken with the aim to achieve and maintain International Finance Corporation (“IFC”) Performance Standards, as they relate to environmental responsibilities, as well as to follow all applicable standards in Mexico. The Company has undertaken baseline environmental studies to define the status of the environment at its most advanced property and to identify mitigation measures appropriate for its operations. The Company realizes that there is a risk that an environmental condition may exist that could delay or prevent the project from advancing or producing, but no such factor has arisen in the Company’s investigations to date. The Company has an Environmental Policy that commits it to operating in an environmentally responsible manner, ensuring compliance by the Company and its employees with all applicable environmental regulations and commitments.

Foreign Operations Risk

Currently, the Company’s exploration projects are in Mexico and the Company manages a number of risks related to operating in a foreign jurisdiction, including security of rights and title, repatriation of funds, availability of a skilled and dependable workforce, access to permits for operation, and stability of the government. Management’s assessment of these risks is low as title to minerals is provided in law and is administered fairly and predictably, surface rights are obtainable by negotiation as guided by law, permits are available in a time frame provided by law and regulation, there is a skilled and available workforce, and the government has been openly supportive of foreign investment in general and expansion in the mining industry. Changes to these conditions could have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s business, financing opportunities, and results of operation.

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company is subject to foreign exchange risk as the Company has certain assets and liabilities, and makes certain expenditures, in Mexican Pesos and US dollars. The Company is therefore subject to gains and losses due to fluctuations in the Mexican Pesos and the US dollar relative to the Canadian dollar. The Company does not hedge its foreign exchange risk.

19

==> picture [91 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

Sensitivity analysis

Based on management's knowledge and experience of the financial markets, the Company believes the following movements are reasonably possible over a twelve-month period.

As at December 31, 2020, the Company has net monetary assets denominated in Mexican Pesos of approximately MXD $60,284,633 (December 31, 2019 –MXD $23,646,246) A 10% change in the value of the Canadian dollar relative to the Mexican Pesos would result in a corresponding change in net income approximately $385,822 (December 31, 2019 – $162,686) based on the balance of these amounts held in Mexican Pesos as at December 31, 2020.

The Company is exposed to market price risk on its marketable securities. A 10% change in the price of the underlying shares would result in a change in the fair value of the marketable securities by approximately $353,000.

The Company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar and major purchases are transacted in Canadian dollars, Mexican pesos and US dollars, which consist primarily of expenses. The Company’s operations are in Canada and Mexico, and the Company does not engage in hedging activities as there is no material difference between the initial transaction amount and the settled transaction amount in respect of foreign currency transactions, since the time between the date of the initial encumbrance and the date the outlay is settled, is less than 90 days.

Credit Risk

Credit risk arises from the non-performance by counterparties of contractual financial obligations. The Company maintains substantially all of its cash with major financial institutions. Deposits held with these institutions may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Management believes that the credit risk concentration with respect to these financial instruments is remote.

Uninsurable Risk

In the course of exploration, development and production of mineral properties, certain risks, and in particular, labour disputes, fires, flooding and unexpected or unusual geological operating conditions including rock bursts, cave-ins, pit slope failures and earthquakes may occur. It is not always possible to fully insure against such risks and the Company may decide not to take out insurance against such risks as a result of high premiums or other reasons.

Future Profits/Losses and Production Revenues/Expenses Risk

There can be no assurance that significant losses will not occur in the near future or that the Company will be profitable in the future. The Company’s operating expenses and capital expenditures may increase in subsequent years as consultants, personnel and equipment associated with advancing exploration, development and, if warranted, commercial

20

==> picture [91 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

production of the Company’s projects and any other properties the Company may acquire are added as needed.

The amounts and timing of expenditures will depend on the progress of ongoing exploration and development, the results of consultants’ analyses and recommendations, and the rate at which operating losses are incurred, the execution of any joint venture agreements with strategic partners, and the Company’s acquisition of additional properties and other factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. The Company currently has commitments for operating leases that can be funded from working capital, and will manage its future commitments consistent with its financial position.

The Company may not receive revenues from operations in the current year, if at all. The Company expects to incur losses unless and until such time as the Company’s projects and any other properties the Company may acquire enter into commercial production and generate sufficient revenues to fund its continuing operations. The development of the Company’s projects and any other properties the Company may acquire will require the commitment of substantial resources to conduct the time-consuming exploration and development of the properties. There can be no assurance that the Company will generate any revenues or achieve profitability. There can be no assurance that the underlying assumed levels of expenses will prove to be accurate.

Competition Risk

The international mining industry is highly competitive and the Company will compete with other mining companies, many of which have greater resources and experience. Competition in the precious metals mining industry is primarily for: mineral rich properties that can be developed and can produce economically; the technical expertise to find, develop and operate such properties; the labour to operate the properties; and the capital for the purpose of funding such properties. Such competition may result in the Company being unable to acquire desired properties, to recruit or retain qualified employees or to acquire the capital necessary to fund its operations and develop its properties. The Company’s inability to compete with other mining companies for these resources would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operation and business.

Key Employees Risk

The Company depends on a number of key employees, the loss of any one of whom could have an adverse effect on the Company.

Fluctuating Mineral Prices Risk

Commodity prices are highly volatile and factors beyond the control of the Company may affect the marketability of metals discovered, if any. Metal prices have fluctuated widely in the past. Since the Company is not a producing entity, price risk only potentially impacts the valuation

21

==> picture [91 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

of the Company’s projects and their carrying values in its financial statements, and the Company has not suffered impairment in any carrying values to this point in time.

Conflicts of Interest Risk

The Company’s directors and officers may serve as directors or officers of other natural resource companies or companies providing services to the Company or they may have significant shareholdings in other resource companies. Situations may arise where the directors and/or officers of the Company may be in competition with the Company. Any conflicts of interest will be subject to and governed by the law applicable to directors’ and officers’ conflicts of interest. In the event that such a conflict of interest arises at a meeting of the Company’s directors, a director who has such a conflict will abstain from voting for or against the approval of such participation or such terms. From time to time, several companies may participate in the acquisition, exploration and development of natural resource properties thereby allowing for their participation in larger programs, permitting involvement in a greater number of programs and reducing financial exposure in respect of any one program. It may also occur that a particular company will assign all or a portion of its interest in a particular program to another of these companies due to the financial position of the company making the assignment. In accordance with applicable laws, the directors and officers of the Company are required to act honestly, in good faith and in the best interests of the Company. In determining whether or not the Company will participate in a particular program and the interest therein to be acquired by it, the directors will primarily consider the degree of risk to which the Company may be exposed and its financial position at that time.

Share Price Volatility Risk

The market price of the Company’s shares is highly volatile and may be significantly affected by factors such as actual or anticipated fluctuations in the Company’s operating results, announcements of technological innovations, changes in estimates or analysis by securities analysts, new exploration projects by the Company or its competitors, government regulatory action, general market conditions and other factors.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company had no off-balance sheet arrangements as at December 31, 2020.
