DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Rockhaven is in the mineral exploration business with an emphasis on precious and base metals, and has an interest in one mineral exploration property, the Klaza project, located in west-central Yukon Territory, Canada.

Rockhaven does not own interests in any producing mines. At present, management is concentrating its efforts on Rockhaven’s 100%-owned Klaza project.

OVERALL PERFORMANCE

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company capitalized approximately $779,000 in exploration and evaluation expenditures on the Klaza project, and incurred cash outflows on exploration and evaluation of approximately $864,000 which is inclusive of the net change in amounts within payables for exploration and evaluation expenditures as at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The net use of cash and cash equivalents for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was approximately $1,192,000 resulting from approximately $284,000 used in operating activities, and approximately $908,000 used in investing activities which includes exploration and evaluation on the Klaza project, prepaid exploration expenditures of approximately $82,000, and a partial offset of interest income totaling approximately $38,000.

SUMMARY FINANCIAL INFORMATION (for the eight quarters ended September 30, 2023)

The following table shows the results for the last quarter compared to those from the previous seven quarters.

ters.
Period Ending	Revenues	Loss and Comprehensive Loss	Loss per Share

Loss and comprehensive loss was approximately $8,000 higher for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, compared to the preceding quarter ended June 30, 2023. Despite a net decrease in operating expenses of approximately $17,000 driven by decreases in professional fees, and share-based payments of approximately $4,000 and $26,000, respectively, interest income was approximately $9,000 lower, and an unrealized loss on marketable securities of approximately $11,000 was recognized compared to a previous quarter unrealized gain of approximately $11,000.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Loss and comprehensive loss for the three months ended September 30, 2023, decreased by approximately $150,000 from the three months ended September 30, 2022. While operating expenses decreased on a net basis by approximately $13,000, the decrease in loss and comprehensive loss was primarily attributable to an increase in deferred income tax recovery of approximately $172,000, partially offset by a decrease in interest income of approximately $25,000, and an increase in unrealized loss on marketable securities of approximately $11,000.

Loss and comprehensive loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, decreased by approximately $132,000 from the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This was driven by an increase in deferred income tax recovery of approximately $215,000, partially offset by an increase in operating expenses of approximately $83,000 which was primarily attributable to the increase in sharebased payments expense of approximately $108,000, partially offset by decreases in investor relations

and shareholder information, and management, administration, and corporate development fees of approximately $26,000 in aggregate.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

(a) Working Capital

As at September 30, 2023, Rockhaven had working capital of approximately $1,323,000, compared to working capital of $2,408,000 as at December 31, 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, working capital decreased by approximately $1,085,000 primarily resulting from the net use of cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1,192,000, which was partially offset by a decrease in current liabilities of approximately $129,000.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

Rockhaven does not utilize off-balance sheet arrangements.

2. Archer, Cathro & Associates (1981) Limited

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, $22,766 in costs related to mineral property acquisition, exploration and evaluation, management, office rent and administration were billed by Archer, Cathro & Associates (1981) Limited (“Archer Cathro”), compared to $825,338 billed during the three months ended September 30, 2022.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, $191,411 in costs related to mineral property acquisition, exploration and evaluation, management, office rent and administration were billed by Archer Cathro, compared to $1,119,132 billed during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Douglas Eaton retired as a Director from Archer Cathro (February 2022) and remains a Director of Rockhaven. Prior to his retirement from Archer Cathro, Douglas Eaton received indirect compensation from Rockhaven, through his proportional interest in the profits of Archer Cathro, and he may continue to receive indirect compensation from Rockhaven, under terms of his retirement agreement with Archer Cathro.

Archer Cathro is a geological consulting firm with offices in Vancouver and Squamish, British Columbia and Whitehorse, Yukon. Douglas Eaton is the President, Chief Executive Officer and a Director of Strategic Metals Ltd., the largest shareholder of Rockhaven.

Archer Cathro does not: (i) own any Rockhaven shares or warrants; or (ii) hold any interests or royalties relating to Rockhaven’s mineral property. The majority of Rockhaven’s mineral claims are registered in the name of Archer Cathro and are held by Archer Cathro as bare trustee for Rockhaven under the terms of a trust indenture. In addition to holding legal title to mineral claims for Rockhaven, Archer Cathro provides various services related to the Rockhaven’s Klaza property, which include: (i) exploration program management; (ii) field camp management; (iii) mineral tenure management; (iv) the filing of annual assessment reports; and (v) the management of land use (exploration) permits.

Included in the fees paid to Archer Cathro is rent for furnished space in Archer Cathro’s Vancouver office. Office rental fees are charged on a month-to-month basis with no ongoing contractual obligation on the part of Rockhaven to continue to occupy its current office space. The rental payment also allows Rockhaven to use space in Archer Cathro’s Squamish office and its Whitehorse office, warehouse, and storage compound, at no additional cost to Rockhaven.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

In conducting its business, Rockhaven faces a number of risks and uncertainties related to the mineral exploration industry. Some of these risk factors include risks associated with land title, exploration and development, government, and environmental regulations, permits and licenses, competition, fluctuating metal prices, the requirement and ability to raise additional capital through future financings and price volatility of publicly traded securities.

(a) Title Risks

Although Rockhaven has exercised due diligence with respect to determining title to the mineral claims in which it has a material interest, there is no guarantee that title to such mineral claims will not be challenged or impugned. Third parties may have valid claims underlying portions of Rockhaven's interests. Its mineral claims, permits or tenures may be subject to prior unregistered agreements or transfers or to Aboriginal Land Claims. Title to the mineral claims, permits or tenures comprising Rockhaven’s property may also be affected by undetected defects. If a title defect exists, it is possible that Rockhaven may lose all or part of its interest in the mineral claims to which such defect relates.

(b) Exploration and Development

Resource exploration and development is a highly speculative business, characterized by a number of significant risks including, but not limited to, unprofitable efforts resulting not only from the failure to discover mineral deposits but also from finding mineral deposits that, though present, are insufficient in quantity and quality to return a profit from production.

(c) Environmental Regulations, Permits and Licenses

Rockhaven's operations may be subject to environmental regulations promulgated by government agencies from time to time. Environmental legislation provides for restrictions and prohibitions on spills, releases or emissions of various substances produced in association with certain mining industry operations, such as seepage from tailings disposal areas that would result in environmental pollution. A breach of such legislation may result in the imposition of fines and penalties. In addition, certain types of operations require the submission and approval of environmental impact assessments. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner that means standards are stricter, and enforcement, fines and penalties for noncompliance are more stringent. Although Rockhaven does not currently own interests in any producing mines or tailings impoundment/disposal areas, management strictly adheres to the rules set out in its active land use permits and actively follows any potential updates of future mining regulations.

(d) Competition

The mineral exploration industry is intensely competitive in all its phases and Rockhaven competes with other companies that have greater financial and technical resources. Competition could adversely affect Rockhaven's ability to acquire suitable properties or prospects in the future.

(e) Fluctuating Metal Prices

Factors beyond the control of Rockhaven have a direct effect on global metal prices, which have fluctuated widely in recent years. Consequently, the economic viability of Rockhaven’s exploration project and Rockhaven’s ability to finance the development of its project cannot be accurately predicted and may be adversely affected by fluctuations in metal prices.

(f) Future Financings

Rockhaven's continued operation will be dependent in part upon its ability to generate positive operating cash flows and to procure additional financing. To date, Rockhaven has done so through equity financing.

Fluctuations of global equity markets can have a direct effect on the ability of exploration companies, including Rockhaven, to finance project acquisition and development through equity and debt markets. There can be no assurance that funds from Rockhaven’s current financing sources can be generated or that other forms of financing can be obtained at a future date. Failure to obtain additional financing on a timely basis may cause Rockhaven to postpone exploration or development plans, forfeit rights in some or all of its mineral claims, or reduce or terminate some or all of its operations.

(g) Price Volatility of Publicly Traded Securities

There are current indications of bear market conditions and global investors are reluctant to make large investments in the securities of junior exploration companies. There can be no assurance that market prices for securities of mineral exploration companies will improve significantly in the short or intermediate term.

(h) Adverse External Factors

There are many external factors that can adversely affect general workforces, economies, and financial markets globally. Examples include, but are not limited to, COVID-19, supply chain disruptions and political conflict in other regions. It is not possible for the Company to predict the duration or magnitude of adverse results of such external factors and their effect on the Company’s business or ability to raise funds.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Rockhaven’s significant accounting policies are detailed in Note 2 to the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. Of these accounting policies, Rockhaven considers the following policy to be the most critical to the reader’s full understanding and evaluation of Rockhaven’s reported financial results.

Deferred Exploration Costs

Rockhaven is in the exploration stage with respect to its investment in its mineral property interests and accordingly follows the practice of capitalizing all acquisition costs of mineral property interests and any subsequent exploration and evaluation costs until the properties to which they relate are placed into production, sold, allowed to lapse, or abandoned. Exploration and evaluation costs incurred prior to obtaining ownership, or the right to explore a property, are expensed as incurred as property examination costs. Properties that have close proximity and have the possibility of being developed as a single mine are grouped as projects and are considered separate cash generating units (“CGU”) for the purpose of determining future mineral reserves and impairments.

Management reviews its mineral property interests at each reporting period for signs of impairment and annually after each exploration season to consider if there is impairment in value taking into consideration current year exploration results, or likely gains from the disposition or option of the property. If a property is abandoned, or inactive for a prolonged period, or considered to have no future economic potential, the acquisition and deferred exploration and evaluation costs are written-off to profit or loss.

Exploration costs renounced to shareholders pursuant to flow-through share subscription agreements remain capitalized, however, for income tax purposes the Company has no right to claim these costs as tax deductible expenses.

MANAGEMENT AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS

In February 2023, the Company appointed Loralee Johnstone to the Board of Directors. There were no other changes to Rockhaven management or the Board of Directors for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

INVESTOR RELATIONS

All investor relations functions are performed by Rockhaven management and employees.

MINERAL PROPERTY INTERESTS - KLAZA PROJECT

The Klaza project is comprised of 1,478 mineral claims and covers an area of 287 km[2] . The property is located within the traditional territory of the Little Salmon/Carmacks First Nation. See “Little Salmon/Carmacks First Nation” for additional information.

All of the mineral claims comprising the Klaza project are located in the Whitehorse Mining District, approximately 50 km west of the community of Carmacks, in southern Yukon Territory. Rockhaven holds 100% working interests in all 1,478 of the mineral claims comprising the property, with 1,265 of the claims unencumbered by underlying royalties and the remaining 213 claims subject to third party net smelter return royalty interests ranging from 1% to 1.5%.

The Klaza project is accessible by a year round government maintained two-wheel drive road from the Klondike Highway. It is favorably situated within the Mount Nansen gold camp, a district that hosts an extensive system of gold-silver veins and active placer gold mining operations.

Mineral Deposit Model at Klaza Project

The Klaza project hosts a multi-episodic epithermal vein system of both the intermediate sulphidation and low-sulphidation classes. These veins are interpreted to be in the distal setting of a porphyry complex which is located near the centre of the Mount Nansen Gold Camp, an area that hosts historical gold mines, rich placer gold deposits and key infrastructure such as road access.

Drilling at the Klaza project to date has identified 14 main mineralized vein zones and numerous subsidiary structures, which have a cumulative mineralized strike length greater than 10 km. Mineralized

veins contain varying amounts of gold, silver, lead and zinc, which are commonly associated with galena, sphalerite, pyrite and arsenopyrite hosted in a quartz-carbonate gangue.

Technical reports and maps and drill core photos generated from the results of Rockhaven’s exploration work at Klaza can be viewed on the Rockhaven website at www.rockhavenresources.com.

2023 Metallurgical Test Work and Future Plans

Pre-feasibility level metallurgical studies have been a major focus for Rockhaven in 2023. Split core material from recent drilling in areas from the mineral resources at Klaza has been used to conduct flotation and pre-concentration (ore-sorting) test work. The flotation test work is currently in process and will focus on producing a lead, zinc and arsenopyrite concentrate.

On September 12, 2023, Rockhaven announced results from comprehensive pre-concentration test work. The results demonstrate the potential effectiveness of pre-concentration of Klaza mineralization, by approximately doubling the grade of material entering the mill and reducing the mill feed tonnage by over 50%, with only minor losses in metal. Positive impacts on potential future operations that may result from the use of pre-concentration include a material reduction in the amount of flotation tails, a significantly smaller grinding and flotation circuit and, potentially, lower overall capital and operating costs for such an operation.

Once the flotation test work and trade-off studies are completed, the revised flow sheet and cost estimates that result from the use of pre-concentration will be used in the determination of cut-off grades for the pending updated mineral resource estimation, as well as for the economics of the upcoming prefeasibility study.

2020 Updated Preliminary Economic Assessment

In July 2020, Rockhaven announced the results of an updated Preliminary Economic Assessment related to the Klaza project (the “2020 PEA”). The updated economic assessment was supported by a National Instrument 43–101 compliant technical report dated July 10, 2020, entitled, “Technical Report and Preliminary Economic Assessment Update for the Klaza project, Yukon, Canada” and prepared by AMC Mining Consultants (Canada) Ltd. (“AMC”). A full copy of the report can be viewed at www.sedarplus.ca under the Rockhaven profile or on Rockhaven’s website at www.rockhavenresources.com.

The highlights in the 2020 PEA are as set out below and were based on a gold price of US$1,450/oz and an exchange rate of C$1.00 equal to US$0.72. All figures are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated.

2020 PEA Highlights:

Pre-Tax NPV(5%) of $529 million and an IRR of 45%, and a Post-Tax NPV(5%) of $378 million and an IRR of 37%;
Using a +/- 20% sensitivity analysis for gold price, Post-Tax NPV(5%) of $540 million and 49% IRR at US$1,740/oz gold and a Post-Tax NPV(5%) of $211 million and 24% IRR at US$1,160/oz gold;

12-year mine life producing total payable metals of approximately 750,000 ounces gold and 13.8 million ounces silver;
Initial capital costs of $244 million, which includes $32 million in contingency costs. Life-ofmine (“LOM”) sustaining capital costs total $114 million;
Average LOM operating cash cost of US$613/oz AuEQ[ ] and total all-in sustaining cost of US$875/oz AuEQ[] ;
Annual payable metal production exceeds 100,000 ounces AuEQ in years three through seven; and
Only the upper portions of three out of 14 known mineralized vein zones are included in Mineral Resources evaluated by this PEA, and there is excellent potential for value enhancement through additional exploration.
Gold equivalent values for mining purposes assume base case metal prices and recoveries used in the 2020 PEA and are calculated using the following formula: AuEQ=1*Au+Ag/107.82+Pb/4.14+Zn/4.68.

Investors should be cautioned that the PEA is preliminary in nature and that it includes some inferred mineral resources, which are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized.

Capital and Operating Costs

The Klaza project has been envisioned as a combined open-pit and underground mining operation. Open-pit mining is anticipated to be completed by a contract mining company while the underground operation will be owner-operator with the equipment owned and personnel employed by Rockhaven.

Grid electrical power will provide the majority of the electrical power to the project over the life of the mine. An on-site camp is envisioned to house mine and mill personnel.

LITTLE SALMON/CARMACKS FIRST NATION

In 2015, Rockhaven and the Little Salmon/Carmacks First Nation (“LSCFN”) formally signed an exploration benefits agreement (the “EBA”) related to Rockhaven’s exploration activities at its Klaza project, which is located within the LSCFN traditional territory. The EBA provides certainty for both parties through the exploration phase of the Klaza project as it establishes the framework under which Rockhaven and the LSCFN will advance the project through a mutually beneficial working relationship.

The key elements under the EBA are as follows:

The establishment of a cooperative working relationship between LSCFN and Rockhaven based on mutual respect, communication and collaboration;
A recognition of the importance of the natural environment and ongoing LSCFN traditional values and activities;
Direct and indirect economic benefits for the LSCFN, LSCFN citizens and LSCFN businesses through equity involvement and employment and business opportunities related to the Klaza exploration activities;
The establishment of specific processes under which exploration and environmental monitoring activities at the Klaza project will be undertaken;
The prohibition of any exploration activities by Rockhaven on LSCFN Class A or Class B lands prior to the completion of a separate exploration agreement; and
Rockhaven and LSCFN agree to work toward negotiation of a full economic participation agreement in tandem with any future feasibility study that might be conducted for the project.

Pursuant to the terms of the EBA, 500,000 share purchase warrants remain issued and outstanding to the LSCFN, exercisable at a price of $0.17 per share at any time on or before August 5, 2025.
