MINERAL EXPLORATION PROJECTS
Homathko gold project option
The company has an option for the right to acquire a 100-per-cent interest in the Homathko gold project, located in the Caribou regional district of British Columbia. The Company expanded the project size land position by 30,770 hectares via staking, bringng the total land position to 30,970 hectares.
Mineralization on the property was first identified by Falconbridge Ltd. in 1966, which reported grab and trench sampling returning up to 384 grams per tonne gold. Work completed by Transition Metals Corp. identified a larger, high-grade lode gold system traceable at surface along 1.5 kilometres of strike length. According to Transition, the mineralization is hosted

HOMERUN RESOURCES INC. (formerly ENVIROTEK REMEDIATION INC.) Management’s Discussion & Analysis
within quartz-carbonate veining developed within and near the margins of a shear-bounded, altered quartz-feldspar porphyry sill. Based on field observations, geologists from Transition have interpreted that the environment for mineralization on the property appears consistent with that of a traditional mesothermal lode gold deposit, which bears many similarities to similar deposits occurring elsewhere in the Stikine belt.
Homathko project highlights:
-
Surface and trench grab samples returning up to 384 g/t gold in 1966;
-
Grab samples returning up to 64.5 g/t gold in 1989;
-
Grab samples returning up to 87.5 g/t gold and 45 g/t silver in 2010 by Transition Metals;
-
To date, the Homathko project has never been drill tested.
Cautionary note: the reader is cautioned that rock grab samples are selective by nature and may not represent the true grade or style of mineralization across the property.
Under the terms of the option agreement, the company can earn a 100-per-cent interest in the claims by making such payments necessary to keep the property in good standing and by completing the following:
-
Making the following cash payments and issuing the following common shares to Transition Metals:
-
A $10,000 cash payment on or before Dec. 31, 2020 (paid);
-
700,000 common shares upon TSX Venture Exchange acceptance of the option agreement and no later than June 30, 2021(issued);
-
$40,000 in common shares at a 30-day volume-weighted average price on or before the first anniversary of the option agreement;
-
$50,000 in common shares at a 30-day volume-weighted average price on or before the second anniversary of the option agreement;
-
$50,000 in common shares at a 30-day volume-weighted average price on or before the third anniversary of the option agreement.
-
Completing the following work expenditures on the property:
-
Cumulative $100,000 by June 30, 2021 (completed);
-
oCumulative $550,000 by Dec. 31, 2022.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates. The consolidated financial statements include estimates, which, by their nature, are uncertain.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL RISK FACTORS
2
HOMERUN RESOURCES INC. (formerly ENVIROTEK REMEDIATION INC.) Management’s Discussion & Analysis
For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 and 2020
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. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of management to sustain future development of the business. In order to carry out the planned acquisition and pay for administrative costs, the Company will need to raise additional working capital.
Management reviews its capital management approach on an on-going basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable.
There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during period or during the period. Neither the Company nor its subsidiary is subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
Details of the Company’s financial instruments, management’s assessment of their related risks and details of management of those risks are as follows:
Financial risk management
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, GST receivable, reclamation bond, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, payable to related parties, and demand loan payable.
The Company maintains cash deposits with financial institutions, which, from time to time, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk from cash.
Financial instrument risk exposure
The Company is exposed in varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks. The Board approves and monitors the risk management processes. The Company does not have any asset backed commercial paper.
Credit risk
The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to cash. The Company limits its exposure to credit risk on cash as these financial instruments are held with major Canadian and international banks, from which management believes the risk of loss to be remote.
Liquidity risk
The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining cash. Liquidity requirements are managed based on expected cash flow to ensure there is capital to meet short term and long-term obligations. As at September 30, 2021, the Company did not have sufficient cash on hand to pay its short-term creditors and does not generate cash from its operations. Accordingly, liquidity risk is considered high.
Market risk
The market risk exposure to which the Company is exposed is interest rate risk. The Company’s bank account earns interest income at variable rates. The Company’s future interest income is exposed to short-term rate fluctuations. This is not a significant risk to the Company.
Foreign exchange risk
The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on fluctuations related to cash, demand loan payable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities that are denominated in US dollars. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign exchange risk. A 10% change in the value of the US dollar against the Canadian dollar would have an impact of $10,682 on the Company’s comprehensive loss.

OTHER RISK FACTORS
The Company’s success depends upon a number of factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. Typical risk factors and uncertainties include the current world economic recovery, world conflict, natural disasters which affects the ability to raise financing, title matters, metal prices, currency rate fluctuations, operating hazards encountered in the mining business, and changing legislation, regulations or the administration thereof. These risk factors could materially affect the Company’s future operations and could cause actual events to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements relating to the Company.
Environmental and Other Regulatory Requirements
Mineral exploration activities require permits from various governmental authorities and are and will be governed by laws and regulations governing prospecting, development, mining, production, exports, taxes, labour standards, occupational health, waste disposal, toxic substances, land use, environmental protection, safety and other matters. Companies engaged in the exploration and development of mineral properties generally experience increased costs, and delays as a result of the need to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permits. Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations, and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment, or remedial actions. Parties engaged in mineral exploration and development activities may be required to compensate those suffering loss or damage by reason of the mining activities and may have civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed for violations of applicable laws or regulations and, in particular, environmental laws.
The Company believes it is in compliance with all laws and regulations that currently apply to its activities. However, there can be no assurance that all permits which the Company may require for mineral exploration and development can be obtained or maintained on reasonable terms or that such laws and regulations would not have an adverse effect on any such mineral exploration or development which the Company might undertake.
Amendments to current laws, regulations and permits governing operations and activities of mining companies, or more stringent implementation thereof, could have a material adverse impact on the Company and cause increases in capital expenditures or production costs or reduction in levels of production at producing properties or require abandonment or delays in development of new mining properties.
Metal Prices
The principal activity of the Company is the exploration of resource metal properties. The feasible development of such properties is highly dependent upon metal prices. A sustained and substantial decline in commodity prices could result in the write-down, termination of exploration and development work or loss of the Company’s interests in identified resource properties. Although such prices cannot be forecast with certainty, the Company carefully monitors factors that could affect metal prices in order to assess the feasibility of its resource properties.
Industry and Economic Factors Affecting Performance
As a mineral exploration and development company, The Company’s performance is affected by a number of industry and economic factors and exposure to certain environmental risks and regulatory requirements. These include metal prices, competition amongst exploration firms for attractive mineral properties, the interest of investors in providing high-risk equity capital to exploration companies, and the availability of qualified staff and equipment such as drilling rigs to conduct exploration.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions
Critical accounting estimates are estimates and assumptions made by management that may result in material adjustments to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

Share-based payments
The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options granted and warrants issued. Under this model, the Company must estimate the term, volatility and if applicable, the forfeiture rate of options granted and warrants issued.
Critical Accounting Judgments
Critical accounting judgments are accounting policies that have been identified as being complex or involving subjective judgments or assessments.
Exploration and Evaluation Assets
The application of the Company’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure requires judgment in determining whether it is likely that future economic benefits will flow to the Company, which may be based on assumptions about future events or circumstances. Estimates and assumption made may change if new information becomes available. If, after expenditure is capitalized, information becomes available suggesting that the recovery of the expenditure is unlikely, the amount capitalized is written off in the profit or loss in the period the new information become available.
LEGAL MATTERS
The Company is not currently and has not at any time during our most recently completed fiscal year, been party to, nor has any of its properties been the subject of, any material legal proceedings or regulatory actions.
INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Management is responsible for the design of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting (“ICFR”) as required by National Instrument 52-109 – Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings (“NI 52-109”). ICFR is intended to provide reasonable assurance regarding the preparation and presentation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with applicable generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations.
Based on a review of its internal control procedures at the end of the year covered by this MD&A, management has determined that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting have been effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financing reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
However, even those systems determine to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement and preparation. A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance and are not expected to prevent all errors and fraud.
