OVERVIEW

The Company was incorporated on March 12, 2007 under the British Columbia Business Corporations Act. In 2007, the Company completed an initial public offering ("IPO") and was publicly listed as a Capital Pool Company as defined in Policy 2.4 of the TSX Venture Exchange ("the TSX-V"). In 2008, the Company announced a proposed Qualifying Transaction. In July 2009, the TSX-V accepted the Company's Qualifying Transaction and filing statement, and the Company began trading on the TSX-V as a Tier 2 company under the symbol ECC. The Company's principal business activities are the identification, exploration and development of economically viable mineral properties. Subsequent to the year ended December 2021, on April 6, 2022, the Company completed a change of name to Prospector Metals Corp., with a ticker symbol of "PPP" on the TSX-V.

a) ML Project, Yukon

On December 29, 2023, Prospector entered into a property purchase agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the ML Property (also known as the Mike Lake Property) from Troilus Gold Corporation ("Troilus"). The ML Property encompasses 4,757 hectares within the prolific Tintina Gold Belt, and is located approximately 80 km from Dawson City, Yukon Territory.

On March 5, 2024, the Company closed the acquisition subsequent to approval from the TSX Venture Exchange. The Company also issued 9,222,164 common shares, with a fair value of $1,844,433, to Troilus and incurred cash payments of $18,546. As a result of the issuance, Troilus holds 19.9% of the issued common shares of the Company.

Highlights:

  • The ML Property hosts multiple known prospects over 13.5km trend associated with four identified intrusions and related dike/sill swarms. Target types include intrusion related gold, gold-copper-tungsten skarn, high grade vein, and replacement Au-Ag mineralization associated with a series of Tombstone Suite granitic intrusives.
  • Work completed up to 2008 included airborne-ground geophysics, satellite imagery, geologic mapping, extensive rock and soil sampling, and diamond drilling (+16,700m over 117 holes). No significant work has been conducted on the property since 2008.

Most of the historic work focused on the Skarn Ridge and North Vein targets. Highlight drill results include:

  • Skarn Ridge: - SK07-001: 1.38 g/t Au & 0.61% Cu over 89.31m(1) - SK08-019: 3.07 g/t Au & 0.74% Cu over 76.18m, including 3.56 g/t Au & 0.9% Cu over 56.58m(1)
  • North Vein: - NV05-12: 7.86 g/t Au over 12.09m(1) NV05-02: 7.67 g/t Au over 18.43m(1)

  • Importantly historical drill efforts focused on only a very small portion on the claim block, and the ML Property is host to dozens of high-grade Au, and Au-Cu surface occurrences identified in historical work that to date have not been drill tested.

  • Initial field work at the ML Property will begin in summer 2024 and will consist of a Phase 1 ground evaluation followed by a contingent Phase 2 drill program.
  • Prospector is also planning to complete a VTEM geophysical survey on its Devon Ni-Cu property in H1 2024 and remains committed to its portfolio of Ni-Cu properties in Ontario and Quebec.

The property purchase agreement has the following key terms:

  • 100% interest in the ML Property, Yukon Territory
  • Prospector to issue Troilus shares such that Troilus will hold a 19.9% interest in Prospector, on an undiluted basis following closing of the Private Placement Offering (see below)
  • Prospector has granted Troilus a Participation Right to maintain its ownership interest should Prospector propose to sell additional securities (Participation Right expires if Troilus falls below 5% interest)
  • Troilus has the right to nominate one person to the Board of Directors of Prospector
  • Prospector to provide Troilus with a Milestone Payment within 30 days of the completion of a mineral resource estimate, payable in cash or shares (with certain limitations should this result in Troilus holding over 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of Prospector).
  • The Milestone payment shall be $1 million, if Prospector’s Market Capitalization is less than $20 million, or
  • $2 million if Prospector’s Market Capitalization is greater than $20 million.
  • The transaction with Troilus is subject to Prospector completing a concurrent equity financing for gross proceeds of not less than $1,000,000 (the “Private Placement Offering”).

As the requirement for this contingent payment has not taken place, the Company has not reflected the milestone payment in the Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

On July 4, 2024, the Company completed a strategic investment by B2Gold Corp which subscribed an aggregate of 5,578,720 common shares of the Company (the “Shares”) at a price of C$0.163 per Share for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $909,311.36 (the “Offering”). The gross proceeds from the issue and sale of the Shares will be used exclusively for exploration and development purposes on the Company’s ML Project in the Yukon (the “ML Project”).

On July 16, 2024, the Company the commencement of the 2024 field program at the ML Project which encompassed a 4 week sampling and mapping program, as well as Lidar and Worldview surveys.

On August 15, 2024, the Company announced high-grade Au-Ag-Cu in the first assays from the ML Project, Yukon and a newly identified mineralized corridor extending at least 15 km along trend.

Select sample highlights include:

  • Cirque Area yielded 21.68 g/t Au and 17.01 g/t Au from sheeted quartz +/- tourmaline veins hosted within porphyritic intrusive rocks (never drilled).
  • Bueno Area results include 34.64 g/t Au, 12.09 g/t Au, and 7.42 g/t Au and 1.8 % Cu hosted in porphyry dykes and calc-silicate altered limestone from a series of north trending structural zones (never drilled).
  • Rubble Area assays up to 13.46 g/t Au, 1.87 g/t Au and 3.3% Cu within a broad low lying zone interpreted to be located at the intersection of two key structural trends (never drilled).
  • Java Area yielded 5.91 g/t Au and 3.21 g/t Au, 2.24% Cu and 49.16 g/t Ag; located along an interpreted north trending splay extending through the previously defined North Zone

During the 4-week program, a total of 520 rock grab and chip samples were collected across the property to establish the extent of the surface expression of known zones as well as sample new areas with unknown mineral potential. This news release reports results from the first 133 samples with assays from below detection to 34.64 g/t Au, 3.3 % Cu, 420 g/t Ag.

On September 16, 2024 the company announced the discovery of the “Vary” and “Russer” gold zones at the ML project with assays from the Vary Zone yielding up to 79.96 g/t Au and the Russer Zone up to 16.22 g/t Au.

Select sample highlights include:

  • The newly identified Vary Zone yielded up to 79.96 g/t Au and 3.05 g/t Au and 3.98 % Cu from sheeted quartz veins hosted within porphyritic intrusive rocks.
  • The newly identified Russer Zone results include 16.22 g/t Au and 16.14 g/t Au hosted in quartz-tourmaline veins within porphyritic intrusive rocks.
  • Java Area yielded 16.08 g/t Au and 11.55 g/t Au in quartz veins within calc-silicate replaced quartz pebble conglomerate horizons
  • Rubble Area assayed up to 13.42 g/t Au, 1.06 g/t Au and 8.39% Cu, and 2.58 % Cu in quartz veins within gossanous and altered porphyritic intrusive rocks.
  • Cirque Area assayed up to 10.4% Cu and 1.18 g/t Au in a talus boulder consisting of coarse grained to massive pyrrhotite, arsenopyrite, pyrite, and tourmaline
  • New surface discoveries at the Vary Zone and Russer Zone greatly expand the high-grade gold footprint at ML.
  • A robust east-west mineralized corridor is developing between the Rubble and Cirque Areas in addition to the northeast-southwest trending structural corridor.
  • LiDAR and World View 3 datasets have been received

On October 1st, 2024, the Company announced high-grade Ag-Pb-An potential at the ML Project with assays at the Lorrie Lake Zone extending over 1 km in length and assays up to 2,049 g/t Ag, 34.26% Pb, and 5.08% Zn

Key Point Summary

  • New surface discoveries in the Lorrie Lake area greatly expand the high-grade Ag-Pb-Zn footprint at ML.
  • Lorrie Lake Area yielded up to 2049, 556, and 296 g/t Ag, 34.26 and 33.27% Pb and 5.08% Zn from massive sulfide veins hosted within argillites on the southern boundary of the Lorrie Lake intrusive. The known Ag-Pb-Zn mineralised area is potentially two zones and extends up to approximately 1 km.

  • 18 grab samples assaying above 100 g/t Ag were found across numerous areas.
  • The high-grade Ag-Pb-Zn anomalies likely represent the transition from intrusion-hosted to distal structurally-controlled mineralization, contact zone metal enrichment and/or skarn development which provide evidence of a large mineralised system at ML.

These new Ag-Pb-Zn assays augment previously released high-grade gold results which yielded several new surface discoveries such as the Vary Zone (up to 79.96g/t Au) and the Russer Zone (up to 16.22g/t Au) (see Company news releases dated August 15, 2024 and September 16, 2024)¹. The Lorrie Lake Ag-Pb-Zn Zone occurs less than 800 metres from high priority gold targets yet, represents a separate and spatially distinct target.

b) Savant Lake, Ontario

On September 1, 2020, the Company entered into an earn-in agreement with New Dimension Resources Ltd. (“New Dimension”) whereby the Company can earn a 70% interest in the Savant Lake gold property located in northwest Thunder Bay, Ontario.

The Company can earn a 70% interest in the Savant Lake property by paying the option or a total of $200,000 in cash, issuing 888,889 common shares of the Company, and completing $2,000,000 in exploration work, as follows:

Cash Shares Work Commitment
Within five days of the execution date $50,000 Paid - -
Within five days of TSX Venture acceptance - 222,222 Issued -
On or before September 20, 2021 - 111,111 Issued -
On or before November 15, 2022 $50,000 Paid 222,222 Issued $500,000
On or before November 15, 2023 $50,000* 222,222* $1,000,000*
On of before November 15, 2024 $50,000* 111,111* $500,000*

*Due to termination and mutual release the payments and commitments have been terminated.

If a mineral resource in excess of one million ounces of gold is defined on the property, the Company will make additional payments to New Dimension of $50,000 in cash and issue 222,222 common shares of the Company.

Due to ongoing community issues, the Company has called Force Majeure and as a result has not made the November 15, 2023 payment of cash and shares. The claims have been put on hold by the Ontario Ministry, without any payments required until December 2024.

On April 3, 2024, the Company entered into a property acquisition agreement to purchase 100% of the Savant Project from Capella Minerals for a one-time payment of:

  • Prospector to make a cash payment to Capella of $50,000 on closing;
  • Prospector to issue Capella 1,000,000 common shares upon closing; and
  • Capella to retain a 1% Net Smelter Royalty on any potential future production from the property (with 0.5% being purchasable at any time for $1,000,000).

On April 10, 2024, the Company paid $50,000 and issued 1,000,000 common shares with a fair value of $185,000 to Capella in relation to the property acquisition agreement.

Project Overview

The 229 km² Savant Lake gold project is within the Archean-age Savant Lake-Sturgeon Lake Greenstone Belt, 240 km northwest of Thunder Bay, Ontario. The project has the potential for the discovery of both high-grade iron formation and shear-hosted gold deposits, as well as base metal-rich massive sulfide (VMS) deposits.

Six historic, high-grade iron formation-hosted surface gold occurrences have been identified to date within 60 km of cumulative strike length of under-explored iron formation. Furthermore, two shear-hosted gold occurrences are known, and VMS targets also exist in the bimodal volcanic rock sequences exposed on the eastern and southwestern margins of the property. Many of the priority gold and VMS targets have yet to be drill tested.

Project highlights

  • The property contains gold bearing iron formation with an estimated 60 km of prospective strike length on the property.
  • High grade gold mineralization at surface and in historical diamond drilling occurs over 10 x 10 Km area and is summarized in the table below:
Showing Lithology Best Surface Sample Assay (g/t Au) Best Historical Drillhole Intercept
Horseshoe Iron Formation 138.87 Never drilled
Wiggle Creek Iron Formation 77.50^{1,2} 15.55 g/t Au over 0.4m^{1}
Shoal Iron Formation 46.65^{1,2} 1.87 g/t Au over 0.6m^{1}
One Pine Iron Formation 40.87 23.6 g/t Au over 0.5m^{1}
Snowbird Iron Formation 38.8 Never drilled
L28 Iron Formation 32.35 Never drilled
Stillar Bay Sheared Iron Formation 4.01^{1,2} 3.26 g/t Au over 1.22m^{1}
Big Sandy Sheared Volcanics 3.64 Never drilled

1 Historical assay values have not been independently verified by the Company and a potential investor should not place undue reliance on historical results when making an investment decision, nor should they be used as the sole criterion for making investment decisions. There is no assurance that the Company can reproduce such results or that the historical results described therein will be realized. 2 "Best surface samples" are grab / select samples and not necessarily representative of mineralization hosted on the property.

  • Geologic mapping and magnetic data suggest there are multiple untested gold favorable sites (fold hinges) in iron formation; important structural controls at the past producing Lupin and Homestake mines.
  • The Savant Lake gold occurrences are geologically similar to iron formation hosted gold mines including Goldcorp's Musselwhite Mine, Agnico Eagle's Meadowbank and Amaruq mines, where gold is hosted in altered iron formation and also along contacts with other rock types and structures.

  • A recent high resolution mag survey completed by Prospector has added significantly to the data set being utilized for target definition, and several high-priority target areas have now been identified. The Company plans to mobilize field crews in early spring with the intention of ground truthing target areas followed by drilling in Q3, 2021.

On April 10, 2022, the Company announced an exploration update and plans for 2022. Prospector announced plans to mobilize field crews in early May with the intention of ground truthing target areas and conducting property-wide prospecting. A multi-year exploration permit was issued at the beginning of April, 2022. Community and stakeholder consultations are on going.

On June 26, 2022, the Company announced completion of a thorough prospecting and sampling Phase 1 exploration program which included ground truthing key target areas. A total of 594 grab samples were collected during the Phase 1 program for which 155 assays have been received at the time of release.

  • Assays received to date from the Wiggle Creek prospect confirm the presence of a gold bearing shear zone (6.72 and 6.13 grams per tonne gold or “g/t Au”) characterized by sheared and silicified iron formation and related metasediments with abundant quartz veining, chloritization, and sulphide mineralization. In addition, new rock grabs collected in previously unsampled areas, 300m and 800m along strike, assayed 2.34, 68.6, 26.5, and 4.3 g/t Au. The Wiggle Creek prospect represents a strike length of 1.3km of known gold bearing structure which remains open in all directions.

  • First pass sampling around the Snowbird and Horseshoe prospect collected a sample 200m north of the known historical occurrence with visible gold. Assays remain pending.

  • A new LiDar survey was completed in June 2022 and data is currently being processed.

For additional information on the Savant Lake project, refer to the Company’s news release dated June 26, 2022.

On August 15, 2022 the Company announced the discovery of a second gold bearing structural corridor at Savant Lake.

  • Prospector defined a second, previously unrecognized, structural corridor called the Snowbird-Shoal Deformation Zone which is host to numerous gold occurrences including the Snowbird and Horseshoe occurrences. New sampling in previously unsampled areas around the Snowbird and Horseshoe prospects returned assays of 99.6, 60.0, 20.9, 13.25, 8.39, and 5.63 g/t Au, increasing the known mineralized strike length to 520m.

For additional information on the Savant Lake project, refer to the Company’s news release dated August 15, 2022.

c) Whitton Lake, Ontario (formerly Heaven Lake)

On March 7, 2021, the Company entered into an earn-in agreement under which the Company may acquire a $100\%$ interest in the 4,400-hectare Whitton Lake claim block by making the following cash and share payments:

Cash Shares
Within five days of the execution date $23,300 Paid -
Within five days of TSX-V approval - 222,222 Issued
Within 12 months of signing the earn-in agreement - 222,222 Issued
Within 24 months of signing the earn-in agreement - 222,222 Issued

There are no work commitments. There is a $2\%$ NSR. The Company can acquire $1\%$ of the NSR by paying $\$1,000,000$ .

The Company has since acquired $100\%$ of the Whitton Lake claim block.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company issued 444,439 common shares with a fair value of $919,988 to acquire 100% of the Whitton Lake claim block.

On April 3, 2023, the Company announced the commencement of its maiden diamond drilling program at the Whitton Project. Maiden diamond drilling program of up to $1000\mathrm{m}$ targeted the newly identified, never previously drilled, shallow, steeply dipping electromagnetic conductors (EM) to test for Ni-Cu magmatic sulphides.

On May $23^{\mathrm{rd}}$ , 2023, the Company announced drill results. The 2023 maiden drill program consisted of 4 NQ-sized diamond drillholes totaling $826.40\mathrm{m}$ to test the Roadcut Pt-Pd target and the Whitton Ni-Cu sulphide target.

  • The two Roadcut holes were spaced approximately $100\mathrm{m}$ apart, were completed to test the anomalous surface Pt and Pd results located on the northwestern margin of the Roadcut Complex. Both drill holes returned significant intervals: 23WL003: $0.49\mathrm{g/t}$ $\mathrm{Pt + Pd}$ over $10.50\mathrm{m}$ from $14\mathrm{m}$ , and 23WL004: $0.46\mathrm{g/t}$ $\mathrm{Pt + Pd}$ over $14.40\mathrm{m}$ from $5.60\mathrm{m}$ . Initial interpretations suggest the holes intersected a single, continuous zone associated with a non-magnetic gabbroic border phase of the Roadcut Complex. These are the first ever drill holes at Roadcut and mineralization is open along trend and at depth.
  • At Whitton, two drill holes totaling $580.73\mathrm{m}$ were completed to test the Whitton geophysical conductor. No significant metal values were intersected in these holes. Additional analysis of the results will be ongoing to ensure the Whitton conductor was adequately tested.

d) Toogood Claim Group Earn-in Agreement:

In fiscal 2020, Prospector entered into two earn-in agreements under which Prospector may earn a $100\%$ interest in the Toogood claim group and the McGrath claim group located on New World Island, Newfoundland.

The Company entered an option agreement with 1484428 B.C. Ltd whereby 1484428 B.C. Ltd may earn 100% of the Company's Toogood Project. Pursuant to the terms of the Option Agreement, to acquire a 100% interest in the Toogood Project, 1484428 B.C. Ltd is required to make cash payments of $25,000 (received), issue shares having a value of $900,000, and incur $6,000,000 in exploration expenditures within 60 months. In addition, 1484428 B.C. Ltd will assume responsibility for all

12


underlying original vendor agreements, including net smelter royalties and milestone payments payable on the Toogood Project.

In support of the option agreement with 1484428 B.C. Ltd, the fully vested option and net smelter royalty agreement on the Virgin Arm portion of the Toogood Project has been amended to: (i) reduce the land covered by the Toogood Project; and (ii) include the issuance of 900,000 additional common shares of the Company plus additional common shares having an aggregate market value of $60,000 of within 12 months, and eliminate annual prepayments due on a 3% net smelter royalty in exchange for a single cash payment of $150,000.

As at the date of the condensed interim financial statements, the transaction contemplated under the option agreement had not yet closed, and the Company maintained its 100% interest in the Toogood Project as of March 31, 2025.

Based on the option agreement the Company impaired the Toogood Project to a value of $802,266 ($900,000 over time at a discounted rate of 6%) which resulted in a impairment on exploration and evaluation assets in the amount of $2,430,067.

Highlights

  • Initial sampling of previously untested outcrops identified numerous showings with visible gold within quartz veins hosted by felsic (tonalite) dykes. Three visible gold samples were assayed by metallic screen returning 572.87 g/t Au, 493.91 g/t Au, and 22.28 g/t Au respectively. This area has not yet been drilled. Note that surface samples are grab/select samples and are not necessarily representative of mineralization hosted on the property.
  • These new results define a 100 m by 40 m gold zone which remains open in all directions.
  • Initial mapping suggests mineralization may be locally associated with quartz veins that occur along NNE trending faults within sedimentary host rocks. Visible gold occurs in most outcrops of quartz vein stockwork within a strongly sericite silica pyrite altered felsic (tonalite) dike that intruded a dextral strike slip structure. The visible gold has been observed across a range of grain sizes from several mm down to fine grains at the limit of visible detection.
  • Localized geological and detailed structural mapping suggests a regional system of NNE-trending dextral and possible WNW conjugate faults including the Virgin Arm and Dildo Run Faults, that cross the Toogood property appear to either immediately predate or was synchronous with dike emplacement, then subsequently reactivated and infiltrated by several hydrothermal events which locally include gold mineralization.
  • Prospecting, mapping and sampling will continue with a focus on the dominant gold bearing vein systems, in addition to property-wide airborne magnetics and LiDar surveys over the summer and fall. Localized outcrop stripping, trenching, soil sampling will also be completed during this period and drill targets selected for the fall and winter 2021. Drill permits have been received.

On August 9, 2021, the Company announced bonanza grade weathered sub-crop samples 420m ENE of the new high-grade gold trend in its first pass exploration program at the Toogood property.

Highlights

  • Four weathered sub-crop grab samples with visible gold grading 7,877, 1,276, 1,113, 226 g/t Au, and one additional sample assaying 7 g/t Au are located 420m ENE of the previously announced initial outcrop sampling. Note that surface samples are grab/select samples and are not necessarily representative of mineralization hosted on the property.

13


  • The grab samples are angular, loose, weathered, palm sized quartz vein material in an area of thin cover. They are interpreted to be close to source, covering an area of approximately 40m x 10m. The Toogood project area lacks significant glacial till or erratic boulders due to a low-lying marine incursion approximately 12,000 years ago. As a result, soil and boulders are interpreted as in place weathered sub-crop.
  • Initial mapping and prospecting suggest mineralization may be locally associated with quartz veins that occur along NNE trending faults within sedimentary host rocks. Visible gold occurs in outcrops of quartz vein stockwork within a strongly sericite silica pyrite altered felsic (tonalite) dike that intruded a dextral strike slip structure.
  • Localized outcrop stripping, trenching, soil sampling will follow up the high-grade sampling, in addition to continued prospecting and mapping property wide.

On November 24, 2021, the Company announced additional bonanza grade outcrop samples at the newly named Quinlan and Titan showings in its first pass exploration program at the Toogood property which encompasses 118km² of mineral claims on New World Island, Newfoundland.

Highlights

  • At the Titan showing, additional grab samples with local visible gold graded 2,571.60, 1,146.87, 310.40, 236.86 g/t Au. New stripping and detailed geological mapping and sampling have identified a 40m by 10m wide mineralized zone, open along strike and to depth. Gold is hosted in quartz-ankerite veins within altered shale and greywacke, likely emplaced along west-northwest trending structures. A total of 50 channel samples across five separate channels (total 27.94m) have been collected to test the continuity of mineralization outside of the known visible gold. Channel assays remain pending. Note that surface samples are grab/select samples and are not necessarily representative of mineralization hosted on the property.
  • At the newly named Quinlan showing, additional assays of 229.88, 43.07, 19.09, 13.1, 10.79, 5.60, and 4.12 g/t Au are reported from composite chip and grab samples of quartz vein material hosted in an altered felsic dike. New stripping of the outcrop and subsequent geological mapping, and sampling has identified a 90m by 15m wide mineralized zone, open to depth and concentrated in along north-northeast trending structure. A total of 45 channel samples across seven separate channels (total length sampled of 23.5m) have been collected to test the continuity of mineralization outside of the known visible gold. Channel assays are pending.
  • A new showing, Sherwood has been identified approximately 1.6km south-east of the Quinlan Showing on the intersection two northeast trending structures. Following up on a 2.11 g/t float sample collected earlier in the season in an area of limited outcrop, multiple outcrop/subcrop of felsic dike and quartz fragments have been uncovered through test pits. Subsequently, a total of 883 soil samples were collected across the target, focused on along the Virgin Arm Fault and related structures. Initial XRF analysis of the soils indicate a large elongate Au anomaly with up to 5551 ppm As aligned with the Virgin Arm Fault for a strike length of approximately 800m. In addition, 32 of the 833 soil samples that were analysed using the XRF were positive for Au. Visible gold was panned from a number of soils samples with positive Au and high anomalous As XRF results. Local outcrop stripping is ongoing at the core target at Sherwood which will be followed by detailed mapping and sampling.

On May 18, 2022, the Company announced the commencement of diamond drilling at the Toogood property which encompasses 118km² of mineral claims on New World Island, Newfoundland.

14


On Aug 22nd, 2022, the Company announced diamond drill results from the Company’s Toogood property.

  • At the Quinlan Zone, drilling targeted a gold bearing felsic dyke located by surface sampling (see press release dated March 1, 2022). 19 HQ-size drillholes totaling 857.5 m identified a 1.5-4.5 m wide altered felsic dyke hosted in shale striking 020 and dipping at approximately 45 degrees to the southeast. Drilling extends the known surface expression of the dyke to 200 m in strike length and 120 m downdip. Mineralization remains open in all directions. Visible gold in core was identified in 15 of the 19 drillholes. Drill assay results include 23.90 g/t Au over 3.65 m from 4.75 m including 43.22 g/t Au over 1.95 m (22QL008), 18.27 g/t Au over 4.25 m from 41.25 m including 70.31 g/t Au over 1.05 m (22QL017), and 9.40 g/t Au over 3.18 m from 9.4 m including 22.76 g/t Au over 1.1 m (22QL010).

  • At the Titan prospect, a total of six HQ drillholes totalling 1,056 m were drilled at the Titan prospect and key results include 2.26 g/t over 4.55 from 101.25 m including 6.77 g/t over 1.30 m, and 5.89 g/t over 0.45 m from 163.3 m (Figure 1). Gold is hosted in complex quartz-ankerite vein sets within altered shale and greywacke, likely emplaced along west-northwest trending structures. Additional analysis of the structural components is ongoing to better isolate the gold bearing structures identified on surface where grab samples graded 291.47, 168.46, 181.97, 30.75, 29.85, 11.11 g/t Au and channel samples returned assays of 37.14 g/t Au over 0.8 m, 7.0 g/t Au over 0.6 m, 5.89 g/t Au over 3.2 m, 4.33 g/t Au over 0.5 m, 5.03 g/t Au over 0.5 m and 7.25 g/t Au over 0.5 m.

  • The Sherwood Zone was identified through prospecting (2.11 g/t float sample in the Virgin Arm Fault vicinity). Subsequent follow-up soil sampling identified a large arsenic in soil anomaly. Subsequent trenching, sampling and detail mapped identified complex structure, felsic dyke outcrops, strong silicification and arsenopyrite mineralization with a broad zone NE trending zone associated with the Virgin Arm Fault. Three areas were stripped at the Sherwood zone revealing a complex structural geology with intense faulting striking at 20-30 degrees as well as later meter-scale, roughly E-W (80-105 degrees) dextral offsets. Subsequent drilling (22SH026 totaling 115 m) tested the soil anomaly and the felsic dyke occurrences in the vicinity of the Virgin Arm Fault. The hole collared in shale and successfully encountered significant fault gouge textures and brecciation with variable amounts of felsic dyke/volcanics, greywacke fragments, quartz ± carbonate veining with trace amounts of pyrite and arsenopyrite. Significant assay results include 0.70 g/t over 2.4 m from 18 m including 0.89 g/t over 1.4 m. These initial results confirm the presence of gold within the Virgin Arm Fault system which be traced for nearly 5 km across the Toogood property and represents a promising target for future exploration.

Virgin Arm Agreement Amendment

In support of the Toogood transaction, the fully vested option and net smelter royalty agreement on the Virgin Arm portion of the Toogood Property has been amended to include the issuance of 900,000 additional common shares of the Company at a deemed price of $0.11 per share plus additional common shares having an aggregate market value of $60,000 of within 12 months, as well as the repurchase previously required annual prepayment of a 3% net smelter royalty for $150,000, which becomes payable upon the production of technical report prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 establishing current Measured Mineral Resources and Indicated Mineral Resources at the Virgin Arm Property in excess, collectively, of 500,000 ounces Au. The amendments to the Virgin Arm option and net smelter royalty agreement, and the issuance of common shares of the Company thereunder remain subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. All common shares issuable under the agreement will be subject to a hold period of four months from the date of issuance.

15


On October 25, 2024, the Company announces that it issued 900,000 common shares to arm’s length royalty holders at a deemed price of $0.11 (the “Shares”) in settlement of amounts owing pursuant to the Company’s amended Virgin Arm Agreement (see news release dated September 20, 2024). The shares are subject to a four-month and one day hold period expiring on February 26, 2025.

e) Devon Project, Ontario

On January 19, 2023, the Company acquired a 100% interest in the Devon Ni-Cu-PGE Project in Ontario through staking as part of a broader Ni-Cu-PGE exploration strategy with a focus on high-grade, conduit-hosted deposits hosted within under-explored large igneous provinces.

Devon Project Highlights:

The Devon Project comprises 12,200 hectares acquired through staking, 50km SW of Thunder Bay Ontario, and is road accessible.

  • The Devon Project lies on the Archean craton margin, covered by a sulfide-bearing sedimentary basin, a known ideal geotectonic setting for major magmatic sulfide deposits.
  • The region is intruded by numerous mafic-ultramafic intrusives (Crystal Lake Gabbro, Pigeon River and Logan intrusives), mostly dyke-form intrusions, which can contain disseminated to locally massive magmatic Ni-Cu sulfides with PGEs. The dykes are emplaced along normal faults which provide ideal conduits for deep seated fertile mafic magmas to rise quickly through the crust without losing their chalcophile elements or PGEs.
  • Target deposits are analogous to Eagle & Eagle East, MI, USA Tamarack, MN, USA, and Voisey’s Bay Reed Brook Zone, NL (massive to net textured high-grade Ni-Cu-PGE deposits) or Current Lake, Ontario (PGE-dominant, heavily disseminated magmatic sulfides).
  • Major Pigeon River dykes form part of an east- to northeast trending swarm that transect the property and are typically 50 -70m in width but are locally up to 150 m wide. The dykes locally bifurcate, as well as change orientation from dykes to sill-form intrusions. These geometric complexities favor accumulation of magmatic sulfides in various structural and intrusive traps.
  • Historical occurrences associated with the dykes and mafic-ultramafic intrusions include 0.4% Cu, 0.17% Ni over 12.19m in drill core collared near Crystal Lake ¹,², and numerous grab samples anomalous in Cu, Ni, and PGE’s (For example: 0.51% Cu and 0.24% Ni, 0.46 Cu % and 0.3% Ni and 2.3% Cu, 1.2% Ni, 0.05% Co, and 0.62 ppm Pd ¹,²).
  • Significant portions of the area remain underexplored despite its favourable setting and ease of access. Most of the historic work in the west was focused on vein and breccia hosted silver mineralization.

On June 29th 2023, the Company announced initial results from prospecting work on the property. Geological field reconnaissance was conducted on the Devon Project in May 2023 to assess known historical Ni-Cu-PGE occurrences and prospect additional untested areas along the strike extents of some known well mineralized intrusions and gain broader knowledge of the internal characteristics of the various mafic intrusions and their potential temporal relationships.

16


  • A total of 93 grab samples were collected from outcrop and angular boulders ranging from below detection up to 1.125 % Cu, 0.53 % Ni, and 3.54 g/t Pd+Pt, and 0.123 % Co.
  • At the Copper Hill Occurrence, angular boulders returned assays of up to 1.125 % Cu, 0.4 % Ni, and 2.35 g/t Au+Pd+Pt and 1.015 % Cu, 0.298 % Ni, and 3.81 g/t Au+Pd+Pt. Over a dozen similarly mineralized angular blocks were noted within an area several hundred metres in extent, ranging from 15 cm cobbles up to several angular boulders greater than 1 m in diameter. Most of the boulders were imbedded in reddish matrix-supported glacial till that is up to a few metres maximum thickness and capped by
  • thin organic soil cover, indicating that the boulders were naturally emplaced within the till.
  • Multiple occurrences along the Pigeon River dykes were identified in outcrop returned assays of up to 0.73 % Cu, 0.53% Ni, 0.114 % Co, and 0.22 g/t Au+Pd+Pt, 0.64 % Cu, 0.437 % Ni, and 0.267 g/t Au+Pd+Pt, and 0.47% Cu, 0.097 % Ni, and 0.404 g/t Au+Pd+Pt.
  • Highly encouraging results warrant a regional helicopter borne VTEM survey that will help to isolate the sulphidic dykes at or near surface and those obscured under cover.

On October 25, 2024, the Company announced the completion of property-wide VTEM™ survey during the summer and resulting target selection, the Company has completed a 2-week prospecting program designed to ground-truth the high priority geophysical anomalies. The Devon Ni-Cu Project is road accessible and cut by paved highways.

  • A VTEM™ Plus survey covering approximately 1500-line km's over three blocks, at a line spacing for 150m was completed during the summer 2024. The VTEM™ Plus survey is excellent for locating discrete conductive anomalies as well as mapping lateral and vertical variations in resistivity, both of which are critical in identifying covered sulphide bearing targets at the Devon Project.
  • Results of the VTEM™ at Devon include 44 high priority Ni-Cu targets which manifest as late-time conductors and are located within or in contact with Pigeon River ultramafic source dykes. These target conductors are steeply dipping and appear distinct from the numerous flat-lying conductors associated with Logan Sills.
  • A total of 76 rock samples were collected during a 2-week field program to ground-truth high priority VTEM™ anomalies in September 2024.
  • The program successfully identified variably mineralised mafic and ultramafic rocks assaying from below detection up to 0.46% Cu and 0.172% Ni on targets previously unrecognised¹.
  • The surface mineralisation confirms the presence of Ni-Cu mineralisation within the right host rocks. The late-time conductors identified in the VTEM data and the preliminary 1D inversion conductivity modelling, together with the modest tenor of mineralisation seen at surface suggest the presence of high tenor mineralisation under cover and to depth at a number of locations.

17


  • Detailed 3D conductivity and magnetic susceptibility inversion and Maxwell conductor plate modelling on high priority targets is underway with the goal of identifying specific targets for drilling.

Three months ended March 31, 2025 statement of losses compared to previous quarters

Interest income fluctuates as it depends on the balance of short-term cash investments from quarter to quarter and the interest rate on short term investments.

In general, there are no systematic identifiable factors that cause variations in the selected quarterly financial information. Losses are different due to timing of exploration expenditures which is dependent on workability due to weather and availability of financing.

Net losses were highest in Q4 and Q2 2024 which was largely driven by the impairment of exploration and evaluation assets as well as exploration expenses being the highest during those periods which have since decreased. Fluctuations in exploration activities throughout the year are as expected and impact the movement in total expenses quarter over quarter. The general decrease in net loss during the period is attributable to less exploration activities occurring during the period and the previous fiscal year as compared to the prior periods. In addition, several projects were impaired during the year ended December 31, 2024 which subsequently decreased overall exploration and evaluation expenses.

Financial instruments

Fair value

Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

  • Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
  • Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and
  • Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data.

Investments are carried at fair value using a Level 1 fair value measurement. The recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, amounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to their short-term to maturities which is the amount presented on the statement of financial position.

The Company is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk from its financial instruments which include cash and cash equivalents, amounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company is not exposed to significant market or other price risks.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s cash and short-term investments are on deposit at a major financial institution. Amounts receivables consist primarily of goods and services tax refunds due from the Government of Canada and are neither past due nor impaired. As such, the Company considers its exposure to credit risk to be minimal.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will be unable to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company is exposed to liquidity risk through its accounts payable, accrued liabilities and amounts due to related parties, which are all due on demand. The Company uses cash forecasts to ensure as far as possible that

22


there is sufficient cash on hand to meet short-term business requirements. Cash and cash equivalents are invested in highly liquid investments which are available to discharge obligations when they come due.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will affect the fair value or future cash flows of the Company's financial instruments. The Company is exposed from time to time to interest rate risk as a result of holding fixed rate temporary investments of varying maturities. The Company reduces the risk that it will realize a loss as a result of a decline in the fair value of these investments by limiting these investments to highly liquid securities with short-term maturities.

Price risk

The Company has limited exposure to price risk with respect to 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.

Capital management

The Company's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to pursue its objectives. The Company measures its capital as its shareholders' equity. The Company's primary source of capital is the issuance of equity.

The Company manages and adjusts its capital structure whenever changes in economic conditions occur. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may seek additional funding.

The Company may require additional funding to meet its administrative overhead expenses in the long term. The Company believes it will be able to raise capital as required but recognizes there will be risks involved that may be beyond its control.

The Company expects its current capital resources will be sufficient to carry out its exploration plans and operations through at least the next twelve months. There are no external restrictions on the Company's capital.

Critical accounting estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments and form assumptions that affect the reported amounts and other disclosures in the financial statements. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and further periods if the review affects both current and future periods.

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. Critical estimates used in the preparation of these financial statements include, among others, the recoverability of amounts receivable and deferred tax assets, impairment of assets, measurement of share-based payments and valuation of reclamation obligations.

23


Critical accounting judgments are accounting policies that have been identified as being complex or involving subjective judgments or assessments. Critical accounting judgments include the expected economic lives of and the estimated future operating results and net cash flows from property and equipment.

Mineral interests and other assets owned are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. All direct costs related to the acquisition of mineral properties are capitalized until the properties to which they relate are ready for their intended use, sold, abandoned or management has determined there to be impairment. On the commencement of commercial production, net capitalized costs are charged to operations on a unit-of-production basis, by property, using estimated proven and probable recoverable reserves as the depletion base.

Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to the mineral properties in which it has an interest, in accordance with industry standards for properties in the exploration stage, these procedures do not guarantee the Company's title. Property title may be subject to unregistered prior agreements and noncompliance with regulatory requirements.

Exploration and evaluation expenditures, inclusive of exploration programs required under option agreements, net of incidental revenues, are charged to operations in the period incurred, until such time as it has been determined that a property has economically recoverable reserves and a decision to commence commercial production has occurred, in which case subsequent exploration expenditures and the costs incurred to develop a property are capitalized. Exploration and evaluation expenditures include value-added taxes and presumptive income taxes incurred in foreign jurisdictions when recoverability of these taxes is uncertain.

From time to time, the Company grants common share purchase options to directors, officers, employees, and non-employees. The Company uses the fair value method of accounting for options granted under its share purchase option plan. Options granted to directors, officers and employees are measured at fair value, which is charged to operations over the applicable vesting period, with an offsetting credit to share option reserves. Options granted to non-employees are measured at fair value of goods and services received, which is charged to operations at the date the options are fully vested, with an offsetting credit to share option reserves. The cumulative expense is recognized for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the Company's best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Cash received on the exercise of share options is recorded in share capital and the related compensation included in share option reserves is transferred to share capital to recognize the total consideration for the shares issued.

OTHER MD&A REQUIREMENTS

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company has not commenced commercial operations and has no assets other than cash and mineral property agreements under option. It has no history of earnings, and it is not expected to generate earnings or pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

Metal Price Fluctuations

The potential profitability of the precious and base metal exploration projects in which the Company has an interest will be significantly affected by changes in the market prices of precious metals and vanadium. Prices for metals fluctuate on a daily basis, have historically been subject to wide fluctuations and are affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company such as the level of interest rates, the rate of inflation, central bank transactions, world supply of metals, foreign currency exchange rates, international investments, monetary systems, speculative activities, international economic conditions and political developments. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but the combination of these factors may result in the Company not receiving adequate returns on invested capital or the investments retaining their respective values. Declining market prices for these metals could materially adversely affect the Company’s operations and profitability.

Fluctuations in the Price of Consumed Commodities

Prices and availability of commodities consumed or used in connection with exploration, development and mining, such as natural gas, diesel, oil, electricity, cyanide and other reagents fluctuate affecting the costs of exploration in our operational areas. These fluctuations can be unpredictable, can occur over short periods of time and may have a materially adverse impact on our operating costs or the timing and costs of various projects.

Foreign Exchange Rate Fluctuations

Operations may be subject to foreign currency exchange fluctuations. The Company to-date has raised its funds through equity issuances which are priced in Canadian dollars, and until recently the majority of the exploration costs of the Company were denominated in United States dollars. The Company may suffer losses due to adverse foreign currency fluctuations.

Competitive Conditions

Significant competition exists for natural resource acquisition opportunities. As a result of this competition, some of which is with large, well established mining companies with substantial capabilities and significant financial and technical resources, the Company may be unable to either compete for or acquire rights to exploit additional attractive mining properties on terms it considers acceptable. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to acquire any interest in additional projects that would yield reserves or results for commercial mining operations.

Operating Hazards and Risks

Exploration activities may generally involve a high degree of risk, which even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to overcome. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following: environmental hazards, industrial accidents, third party accidents, unusual or unexpected geological structures or formations, fires, power outages, labour disruptions, floods, explosions, cave-ins, land-slides, acts of God, periodic interruptions due to inclement or hazardous weather conditions, earthquakes, war, rebellion, revolution, delays in transportation, inaccessibility to property, restrictions of courts and/or government authorities, other restrictive matters beyond the reasonable control of the Company, and the inability to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment or labour and other risks involved in the normal course of exploration activities.


Operations in which the Company has a direct or indirect interest will be subject to all the hazards and risks normally incidental to exploration, development and production of precious metals and vanadium, any of which could result in work stoppages, delayed production and resultant losses, increased production costs, asset write downs, damage to or destruction of mines and other producing facilities, damage to life and property, environmental damage and possible legal liability for any or all damages. The Company may become subject to liability for pollution, cave-ins or hazards against which it cannot insure or against which it may elect not to insure. Any compensation for such liabilities may have a material, adverse effect on the Company’s financial position.

Infrastructure

Mining, processing, development and exploration activities depend, to one degree or another, on adequate infrastructure. Reliable roads, bridges, power sources and water supply are important determinants, which affect capital and operating costs. The lack of availability of acceptable terms or the delay in the availability of any one or more of these items could prevent or delay exploitation or development of the Company’s projects. If adequate infrastructure is not available in a timely manner, there can be no assurance that the exploitation or development of the Company’s projects will be commenced or completed on a timely basis, if at all.

Exploration and Development

There is no assurance given by the Company that its exploration and development programs and properties will result in the discovery, development or production of a commercially viable ore body or yield new reserves to replace or expand current reserves.

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. At this time, none of the Company’s properties have any defined ore-bodies with proven reserves.

The economics of developing mineral properties containing gold, silver, copper, vanadium and other metals are affected by many factors including capital and operating costs, variations of the tonnage and grade of ore mined, fluctuating mineral markets, and such other factors as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection. Depending on the prices of gold, silver, copper vanadium or other metals and minerals produced, the Company may determine that it is impractical to commence or continue commercial production. Substantial expenditures are required to discover an ore-body, to establish reserves, to identify the appropriate metallurgical processes to extract metal from ore, and to develop the mining and processing facilities and infrastructure. The marketability of any minerals acquired or discovered may be affected by numerous factors which are beyond the Company’s control and which cannot be accurately foreseen or predicted, such as market fluctuations, conditions for metals, the proximity and capacity of milling and smelting facilities, and such other factors as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting minerals and environmental protection. In order to commence exploitation of certain properties presently held under exploration concessions, it is necessary for the Company to apply for an exploitation concession. There can be no guarantee that such a concession will be granted. Unsuccessful exploration or development programs could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s operations and profitability.

27

Business Strategy

As part of the Company’s business strategy, it has sought and will continue to seek new exploration and development opportunities in the mining industry. In pursuit of such opportunities, it may fail to select appropriate acquisition candidates, negotiate appropriate acquisition terms, conduct sufficient due diligence to determine all related liabilities or to negotiate favourable financing terms. The Company may encounter difficulties in transitioning the business, including issues with the integration of the acquired businesses or its personnel into the Company. The Company cannot assure that it can complete any acquisition or business arrangement that it pursues, or is pursuing, on favourable terms, or that any acquisitions or business arrangements completed will ultimately benefit its business.

Environmental Factors

All phases of the Company’s operations are subject to environmental regulation in the jurisdictions in which it operates. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner which will require stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and their officers, directors and employees. There is no assurance that any future changes in environmental regulation, will not adversely affect the Company’s operations. The costs of compliance with changes in government regulations have the potential to reduce the profitability of future operations. Environmental hazards that may have been caused by previous or existing owners or operators may exist on the Company’s mineral properties but are unknown to the Company at the present.

Title to Assets

Although the Company has or will receive title opinions for any properties in which it has a material interest, there is no guarantee that title to such properties will not be challenged or impugned. The Company has not conducted surveys of the claims in which it holds direct or indirect interests and, therefore, the precise area and location of such claims may be in doubt. The Company’s claims may be subject to prior unregistered agreements or transfers, or native land claims, and title may be affected by unidentified or unknown defects. The Company has conducted as thorough an investigation as possible on the title of properties that it has acquired or will be acquiring to be certain that there are no other claims or agreements that could affect its title to the concessions or claims. If title to the Company’s properties is disputed, it may result in the Company paying substantial costs to settle the dispute or clear title and could result in the loss of the property, which events may affect the economic viability of the Company.

Uncertainty of Funding

The Company has limited financial resources, and the mineral claims in which the Company has an interest or an option to acquire an interest require financial expenditures to be made by the Company. There can be no assurance that adequate funding will be available to the Company so as to exercise its option or to maintain its interests once those options have been exercised. Further exploration work and development of the properties in which the Company has an interest or option to acquire depend upon the Company’s ability to obtain financing through joint venturing of projects, debt financing or equity financing or other means. Failure to obtain financing on a timely basis could cause the Company to forfeit all or parts of its interests in mineral properties or reduce or terminate its operations.

Agreements with Other Parties

The Company has entered into agreements with other parties relating to the exploration, development and production of its properties. The Company may in the future, be unable to meet its share of costs incurred under agreements to which it is a party, and the Company may have its interest in the properties subject to such agreements reduced as a result. Furthermore, if other parties to such agreements do not meet their share of such costs, the Company may be unable to finance the costs required to complete recommended programs.


28

Potential Conflicts of Interest

The directors and officers of the Company may serve as directors and/or officers of other public and private companies and may devote a portion of their time to manage other business interests. This may result in certain conflicts of interest. To the extent that such other companies may participate in ventures in which the Company is also participating, such directors and officers of the Company may have a conflict of interest in negotiating and reaching an agreement with respect to the extent of each company's participation. The laws of British Columbia, Canada, require the directors and officers to act honestly, in good faith, and in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. However, in conflict of interest situations, directors and officers of the Company may owe the same duty to another company and will need to balance the competing obligations and liabilities of their actions.

There is no assurance that the needs of the Company will receive priority in all cases. From time to time, several companies may participate together in the acquisition, exploration and development of natural resource properties, thereby allowing these companies to: (i) participate in larger properties and programs; (ii) acquire an interest in a greater number of properties and programs; and (iii) reduce their financial exposure to any one property or program. A particular company may assign, at its cost, all or a portion of its interests in a particular program to another affiliated company due to the financial position of the company making the assignment. In determining whether or not the Company will participate in a particular program and the interest therein to be acquired by it, it is expected that the directors and officers of the Company will primarily consider the degree of risk to which the Company may be exposed and its financial position at that time.

Third Party Reliance

The Company's rights to acquire interests in certain mineral properties have been granted by third parties who themselves may hold only an option to acquire such properties. As a result, the Company may have no direct contractual relationship with the underlying property holder.

Assurance on Financial Statements

We prepare our financial reports in accordance with accounting policies and methods prescribed by IFRS and previously under Canadian GAAP. In the preparation of financial reports, management may need to rely upon assumptions, make estimates or use their best judgment in determining the financial condition of the Company. Significant accounting policies and practices are described in more detail in the notes to our audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. In order to have a reasonable level of assurance that financial transactions are properly authorized, assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use and transactions are properly recorded and reported, we have implemented and continue to analyze our internal control systems for financial reporting. Although we believe our financial reporting and financial statements are prepared with reasonable safeguards to ensure reliability, we cannot provide absolute assurance in that regard.

General Economic Conditions

The unprecedented events in global financial markets during the last few years have had a profound effect on the global economy. Many industries, including the gold, silver, and vanadium mining industry, are affected by these market conditions. Some of the key effects of the current financial market turmoil include contraction in credit markets resulting in a widening of credit risk, devaluations and high volatility in global equity, commodity, foreign exchange and precious metal markets, and a lack of market liquidity. A continued or worsened slowdown in the financial markets or other economic conditions, including but not limited to, consumer spending, employment rates, business conditions, inflation, fuel and energy costs, consumer debt levels, lack of available credit, the state of the financial markets, interest rates, and tax rates may adversely affect the Company's growth and profitability.


29

Substantial Volatility of Share Price

In recent years, the securities markets in the United States and Canada have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility, and the securities of many mineral exploration companies have experienced wide fluctuations in price which have not necessarily been related to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. The price of the Company’s common shares is also likely to be significantly affected by short-term changes in mineral prices or in the Company’s financial condition or results of operations as reflected in its quarterly financial reports.

Potential dilution of present and prospective shareholdings

In order to finance future operations and development efforts, the Company may raise funds through the issue of common shares or the issue of securities convertible into common shares. The Company cannot predict the size of future issues of common shares or the issue of securities convertible into common shares or the effect, if any, that future issues and sales of the Company’s common shares will have on the market price of its common shares. Any transaction involving the issue of shares, or securities convertible into shares, could result in dilution, possibly substantial, to present and prospective holders of shares.
