There are no material facts about the business of the Company or the securities being distributed that have not been disclosed in this Offering Document or in any other document filed by the Company in the 12 months preceding the date of this Offering Document.
What are the business objectives that we expect to accomplish using the available funds?
The Company intends to use the gross proceeds from the sale of FT Shares to incur Qualifying Expenditures related to the Company's projects in Ontario and Manitoba, as applicable, on or before December 31, 2026. This includes programs and expenditures to proceed with exploration activities at Monument Bay and the TPK Project. In particular, the Company intends to advance the current eight-hole diamond drill program totaling 2,400 metres which is currently underway at the TPK Project and collect structural data using oriented core to enhance the understanding of the structural controls of both gold and base metal mineralization at the TPK Project. The Company also intends to conduct further drilling activities at the TPK Project. The Company is intending to use the funds available from the Offering to collect over 13,400 pulps that need to be analyzed for tungsten at Monument Bay and conduct a comprehensive infill sampling program for tungsten, along with intervals of core requiring additional logging and splitting for gold analysis. This initiative aims to recover critical gold and tungsten assay data across the Monument Bay deposit.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of HD Shares for working capital and general corporate purposes over a period of 12 months following closing of the Offering.
USE OF AVAILABLE FUNDS
What will our available funds be upon the closing of the Offering?
| Assuming 100% of Offering | ||
|---|---|---|
| A | Amount to be raised by this Offering | $7,700,137.50 |
| B | Selling commissions and fees | $462,008.25 |
| C | Estimated offering costs (e.g., legal, accounting, audit) | $150,000 |
| D | Net proceeds of offering: D = A – (B+C) | $7,088,129.25 |
| E | Working capital as at most recent month end (deficiency) | $3,192,304 |
| F | Additional sources of funding | N/A |
| G | Total available funds: G = D+E+F | $10,280,433.25 |
How will we use the available funds?
| Description of intended use of available funds listed in order of priority | Assuming 100% of Offering |
|---|---|
| Qualifying Expenditures at Monument Bay in Manitoba | $2,500,104 |
| Qualifying Expenditures at the TPK Project in Ontario | $2,500,025.50 |
| General and Administrative | $1,200,000 |
| Unallocated Working Capital | $4,080,303.75 |
| Total: | $10,280,433.25 |
The above noted allocation of capital and anticipated timing represent the Company's current intentions based upon its present plans and business condition, which could change in the future as its plans and business conditions evolve. Although the Company intends to spend the proceeds from the Offering as set forth above, there may be circumstances where, for sound business reasons, a reallocation of funds may be deemed prudent or necessary and may vary materially from that set forth above, as the amounts actually allocated and spent will depend on a number of factors, including the Company's ability to execute on its business plan. See the "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information" section above.
The most recent audited annual financial statements of the Company included a going-concern note. The Company is in the process of exploring its mineral properties and has not yet determined whether these properties contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable. The recoverability of exploration and evaluation expenditures is dependent upon the establishment of a sufficient quantity of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to complete the development and upon future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition of these assets. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the financing necessary to fund its mineral properties through the issuance of share capital, and to realize future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition of its mineral interests. These material uncertainties cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Offering is intended to permit the Company to continue to explore its properties and conduct additional drilling with the goal of defining mineral resource estimates, and is not expected to affect the decision to include a going-concern note in the next financial statements of the Company.
How have we used the other funds we have raised in the past 12 months?
