MANAGEMENT OF INDUSTRY AND FINANCIAL RISK

The Company is in the mineral exploration sector and manages related industry risk issues directly.

Management is not aware of and does not anticipate any significant environmental exposure or risk of remediation costs or liabilities as it does not currently have any active mineral exploration operations.

The Company’s has minimal exposure to any financial risks having not commenced commercial operations. The Company’s primary financial risk to liquidity risk due to its reliance on demand loans, vendors and consultants continuing to extend payment terms, and management continuing to accrue expenses for unpaid services. Any one or more of these liquidity risks may have a material financial impact on the Company, should favorable loans, services, and/or terms become no longer available to the Company.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET TRANSACTIONS

The Company has not entered into any significant off-balance sheet arrangements or commitments.

RISK AND UNCERTAINTIES

Core Business

The Company’s business focus is on mining and exploration.

Significant capital investment, geological and mining personnel, management, and consultants will be required for the development of any potential mining and exploration project.

There is no certainty that any expenditures to be made by the Company as described herein will result in successful mining and exploration. There is aggressive competition within the mineral exploration and development sector with larger exploration companies developing related technology internally. As such, significant capital investment is required along with extensive other resources to develop any potential mineral claims and future mining operations, if attainable. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in obtaining required capital on acceptable terms to reach its business objectives.

Some risks the Company may be exposed to include, but are not limited to the following:

Conflicts of Interest

The Company’s directors and officers also serve as directors and/or officers of other private and public companies involved in other business ventures. Consequently, there exists the possibility for such directors and/or officers to be in a position of conflict. Any decision made by such directors involving the Company will be made in accordance with their duties and obligations to deal fairly and in good faith with the Company and such other companies. As such, these individuals would refrain from voting on the conflicted matter and would be forced to forego potential business or conduct such business in conflict.

Going Concern Risk

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is uncertain and dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations, obtain additional capital and receive continued support from its shareholders. Management of the Company will have to raise capital through private placements or debt financing and proposes to continue to do so through future private placements and offerings. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time.

Operating History and Expected Losses

The Company expects to make significant investments in order to develop its services, increase marketing efforts, improve its operations, conduct research and development and update its equipment. As a result, start-up operating losses are expected, and such losses may be greater than anticipated, which could have a significant effect on the long-term viability of the Company.

Competition

The mining and exploration sector is highly competitive. Other companies in the sector have significantly more geological, engineering, technical, mining expertise, equipment, and financial resources. There can be no assurance the Company will attain a level of such resources in order to compete with.

Reliance on Joint Ventures, Partnerships, or Minority Interests

The nature of the Company’s operations may require it to enter into various agreements with partners, joint venture partners, or minority interests in mineral and exploration projects.

There is no guarantee that those with whom the Company needs to deal will be successful in these joint or participating interests for mining and exploration.

Uninsured Risks

The Company may carry insurance to protect against certain risks in such amounts as it considers adequate. Risks not insured against include key person insurance as the Company heavily relies on the company’s directors and officers.

Growth Management

In executing the Company’s business plan for the future, there will be significant pressure on management, operations, technical, and other assets or resources. The Company anticipates that its operating and personnel costs will increase substantially in the future when and if it is able to commence commercial operations. In order to manage its growth, the Company will have to substantially increase consultants, geological personnel, engineers, technical, human resources, and executive and administration staff to run its operations, while at the same time efficiently maintaining a large number of relationships with third parties. The Company will also have to acquire, lease, or rent a substantial amount of mining and extraction equipment. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to meet these growth objectives.

Reliance on Key Personnel, Service Provider, and Advisors

The Company relies heavily on its director and officers, along with key service providers, business advisors and consultants. The loss of their services would have a material effect on the business of the Company. There can be no assurance that directors and officers, or consultants engaged by the Company will continue to provide services in the employ of, or in a consulting capacity to, the Company or that they will not set up competing businesses or accept positions with competitors. There is no guarantee that certain employees of, and contractors to, the Company who have access to confidential information will not disclose the confidential information.

COVID-19

Since March 2020, several measures have been implemented in Canada and the rest of the world in response to the increased impact from novel coronavirus (COVID-19). The Company continues to operate its business at this time. While the impact of COVID-19 is expected to be temporary, the current circumstances are dynamic and the impacts of COVID-19 on business operations cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The Company anticipates this could have an adverse impact on its business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows in the future periods.
