Apart from these and the risk factors described under the heading "Risks and Uncertainties", management is not aware of any other trends, commitments, events or uncertainties that would have a material effect on the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations.

The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2.4 million as of March 31, 2025 and proceeds of $12 million from private placement completed in June 2025 is adequate to cover current expenditures and exploration expenses for the coming year.

In April 2024, the Company completed its non-brokered private placement raising gross proceeds of $6.1 million. From December 2024 to February 2025, the Company completed its non-brokered private placement raising gross proceeds of $3.9 million.

The Company may, from time to time, when marketing and financing conditions are favourable, seek additional financing to fund exploration and property acquisition projects.

The Company has commenced evaluating strategic opportunities to add shareholder value through merger and acquisitions or by acquiring projects directly. The Company will focus primarily on silver projects and opportunities in the Americas; however, the Company may explore opportunities in other regions or with a focus on minerals other than or in addition to silver if advantageous to the Company. The activities of the Company are financed through the completion of equity transactions such as equity offerings and the exercise of stock options and warrants. There is no assurance that equity capital will be available to the Company in the future in the amounts or at the times desired or on terms that are acceptable to the Company, if at all. See "Risks and Uncertainties" below.

As of March 31, 2025, and to the date of this MD&A, the cash resources of the Company are held with certain Canadian chartered banks.

Regardless of whether the Company discovers a significant silver deposit, its cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2.4 million as of March 31, 2025 and proceeds of $12 million from private placement completed in June 2025 is anticipated to be adequate for it to continue operations for the twelve-month period ending March 31, 2026.

Cash Flows

As of March 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $2,353,167. The increase in cash and cash equivalents of $1,146,262 from the March 31, 2024 cash and cash equivalents balance of $1,206,905 was a result of cash outflows in operating activities of $8,524,627, cash inflow in investing activities of $507,841 and cash inflows in financing activities of $9,163,048.

Operating activities were affected by adjustments of stock based compensation of $1,662,494, depreciation of $447,813, accretion of $1,241,252, foreign exchange income of $83,348, loss on settlement of debt of $62,336, unrealized loss on change in fair value of marketable securities of $7,335, and net change in non-cash working capital balances of $2,090,735 because of a decrease in sale taxes receivable of $268,045, a decrease in other receivables of $65,748, a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of $498,188, an increase in inventories of $21,098, a decrease in long-term assets of $43,896 and an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $1,235,956.

Mineral Exploration Properties

Property Descriptions

La Parrilla Silver Mine Complex, Mexico:

On August 14, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of a 100% interest in the La Parrilla Silver Mine Complex located in San Jose de la Parrilla, Durango, Mexico.

The property is located in Durango State, Mexico, approximately 76 kilometres ("km") southeast of the capital city of Durango and is comprised of 40 contiguous mining concessions, in good standing, covering 38,128 hectares. The property was acquired by FMS in 2004 and became their operating first silver mine. When placed on care and maintenance in September 2019, the complex hosted five underground mines surrounding the mill including Rosarios, La Rosa, San Jose, Quebradillas and San Marcos, as well as the Quebradillas open pit. The complex collectively produced 34.3 million silver-equivalent ounces between 2005 and 2019.

In January 2025, the Company submitted an application with the government to drop a non-core concession (Michis - title No. 230602).

Mineralization occurs as vein and replacement deposits, the locations of which are structurally controlled by pre-existing faults, fractures, and bedding planes. Veins can be either open space filling, forming massive sulphide and breccia veins, or fault-related, consisting of matrix-supported breccias or gouge containing disseminated sulphides and oxides. The La Parrilla deposits contain primary sulphides. Due to supergene oxidation, the primary sulphides in the upper parts of some deposits have been altered.

The metallurgical processing plant at La Parrilla consists of parallel 1,000 tpd flotation and 1,000 tpd cyanidation leach circuits to treat both oxide and sulfide ores, for a total capacity of 2,000 tpd, using a conventional flowsheet. Both ore types are polymetallic containing silver as their principal economic component as well as significant amounts of lead and zinc, and minor amounts of gold. Oxide ore is processed by cyanide leaching to produce doré bars while sulphide ore is processed by differential flotation to produce a silver-rich lead concentrate and a zinc concentrate.

A Mineral Resource Estimate completed by SRK Consulting (Canada) in accordance with NI 43-101 was summarized in a news release dated February 11, 2025 entitled "Silver Storm Announces 107% Increase in Indicated Mineral Resources at La Parrilla." This report is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on the Company web site at www.silverstorm.ca.

The Mineral Resource Estimate includes 45 mineralized structures within the Rosarios, San Marcos and Quebradillas underground mines, currently on care & maintenance. All Mineral Resources are within close proximity to existing underground access and development. Separate block models were defined for each mineralized structure. The Mineral Resource estimation process at La Parrilla is aligned with generally accepted CIM Estimation of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves Best Practices Guidelines (November 2019). The Independent qualified person (QP) has applied particular care in the incorporation of the reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction ("RPEEE") to Mineral Resources. The QP used a stope optimizer to identify those portions of the block model that can be reasonably expected to be extracted using selective underground mining methods.

Table 1 represents the Mineral Resource Statement for the La Parrilla Mine, effective December 31, 2024.

Additional drilling in 2023 and 2024 confirmed the continuity of vein mineralization, increasing the Indicated Resources Ag.Eq metal content by 107% and increasing Inferred Resources by 22%. respectively. The 23 newly interpreted mineralized structures, enhanced by new drilling and a thorough review of the legacy First Majestic Silver Mineral Resources database, contributed an additional 22% and 44% to the Ag.Eq metal content in Indicated and Inferred Resources, respectively.

Since 2023, the Company has collected significant specific gravity (SG) data, improving confidence in the in-situ density of mineralization in oxidized and sulphide materials, distinct from host rock density. This update has increased the estimated Ag-Eq metal content by over 10%, though these gains are largely offset by updated cut-off grades. Refreshed RPEEE criteria, with revised costs, metal prices and optimization parameters, led to slight reduction of 15% and 10% in the Ag-Eq metal content of Indicated and Inferred Resources, respectively.

San Diego Property, Mexico:

Silver Storm owns a 100% interest in the San Diego Property. The project was advanced through various exploration programs between 2005 and 2016 which included 6 Phases of surface diamond drilling totaling 32,933 metres ("m"). Phase 7 of diamond drilling commenced in October of 2020 culminating in 10,558 m completed in 24 holes by the end of 2022. The total amount of drilling completed on the property to the end of 2022 is 43,491 m.

The San Diego Property consists of 4 mining concessions (91.65 hectares) in the Municipality of Cuencame, Durango State, Mexico. It is located approximately 75 km southwest of the city of Torreon, Mexico and is 12 km northeast of Peñoles Velardeña Mine. The Peñoles non-ferrous metallurgical complex (smelting and refining) is in Torreon. The property can be accessed via a 10 km dirt road from the village of San Diego, which is only 5 km east of Highway 400 and Federal Road 49.

The property lies within the Velardeña Mining District where several mines have produced silver, zinc, lead and gold over the past century from polymetallic mineralization associated with intermediate to felsic intrusive bodies. The mineral deposits of the Velardeña Mining District consist primarily of quartz-calcite veins with associated silver, lead, zinc, gold and copper mineralization typical of the polymetallic, intrusive related skarn and low-sulfidation epithermal deposits of northern Mexico.

A Mineral Resource Estimate was completed by SGS Canada and an Independent Technical Report prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 was published in April 2013. This report is available on the Company website at www.silverstorm.ca as well as on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. The Estimated Indicated and Inferred Resources at San Diego from this Mineral Resource Estimate are summarized in Table 2.

resources due to lack of metallurgical tests illustrating their potential recoveries. (5) Totals may not add up precisely due to rounding. (6) (Mt): million tonnes; (M oz): million ounces.

Cautionary Statement: Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The resource estimate for the 21 veins and mineralized body were defined by a drill pattern and applying reasonable geological shapes to limit the lateral extent of the veins and mineralized body. Combinations of cross sectional and plan level views were used in order to develop an understanding of the structural relationship and cut off grades were applied. The indicated and inferred categories were partially based on historic structures that consistently exhibit lateral continuity and constant thickness, many of which can be traced along surface for hundreds of metres. There are no known factors such as environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio economic, marketing, political or other relevant factors which could materially affect the resources.

SGS Canada also recognized that there is Additional Target Potential of between 20 to 50 million tonnes grading 100 to 150 g/t silver equivalent. This Additional Target Potential is conceptual in nature as there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.

Exploration Update

On September 18, 2023, the Company announced the commencement of a 7,000 m Phase 1 drill program at La Parrilla which will focus on infill and step-out drilling in proximity to underground mining infrastructure and existing development in three key areas:

  1. Rosarios and Cuerpo 340 Veins – 3,000 m of drilling to test the east, west and central down-dip extensions. The Rosarios vein strikes north 70 degrees (°) west on average, dips at 64° to the northeast and has a known strike length of 2,000 m. The mineralization extends vertically for 900 m, and its thickness varies from 0.2 to 14 m. The vein sits roughly at the northern contact of the granodiorite stock and the limestone. The vein pinches and swells; economic grades can occur either at the footwall or at the hangingwall of the main controlling structure. Stockwork zones are developed either at the footwall or hangingwall of the vein; vein splays, such as Cuerpo 340, and replacements are typically developed at the hangingwall.

  2. Quebradillas Underground – 3,000 m of drilling to test the strike and down-dip extensions of three key zones including Cuerpo 460, Norte-Sur, and San Nicolas. The Cuerpo 460 Replacement vein strikes north 16° west on average, dips at 63° to the northeast, and has a known strike length of 425 m. The zone is mineralized for a vertical extent of 570 m, and its thickness varies from 0.1 to 8.5 m. The replacement body is hosted by the Indidura Formation and is concordant to bedding planes. The Norte-Sur vein strikes north 45° west on average, dips at 71° to the northeast and has a known strike length of 125 m. The vein is mineralized for a vertical extent of 465 m, and its thickness varies from 0.25 to 5.0 m. The structure is a fault-vein hosted by the Indidura Formation and the granodiorite stock, with replacement bodies developed at its footwall and hangingwall. The San Nicolas vein strikes north 25° west on average, dips at 70° to the northeast and has a known

strike length of 525 m. The vein is mineralized for a vertical extent of 470 m, and its thickness varies from 0.3 to 1.8 m. The vein shows open-space mineralization textures with small splays of massive sulphides in its hangingwall. It is hosted by Indidura Formation and it is oxidized in its upper 100 m.

  1. San Marcos – 1,000 m of drilling to test the extension of San Marcos and Cuerpo 1100 at depth. The San Marcos vein strikes north 20° west on average, dips at 60° to the northeast and has a known strike length of 650 m. The vein is mineralized for a vertical extent of 350 m, and its thickness varies from 0.5 to 17 m. The structure is a fault-vein that marks the eastern contact of the granodiorite stock with the Indidura Formation, and it is concordant with bedding. The structure pinches and swells, reaching its maximum thickness in flexure zones along strike where it generally develops cymoid loops. The Cuerpo 1100 vein strikes north 50° west on average, dips at 75° to the northeast and has a known strike length of 500 m. The vein is mineralized for a vertical extent of 430 m, and its thickness varies from 0.5 to 1.5 m. The structure is a fault-vein that pinches and swells and is hosted by the Indidura Formation and the granodiorite stock. The vein is oxidized in the upper 150 m and it usually develops mineralized stockwork.

On November 2, 2023, the Company announced drill results from 5 holes targeting the C460B, C460, Quebradillas, and Q38 Zones in the Quebradillas mine. Key highlights include:

  • Hole Q-23-001 successfully intersected C460B Zone returning 299 g/t Ag.Eq⁽¹⁾ over 1.64 m and 328 g/t Ag.Eq over 1.60 m within a broader interval grading 206 g/t Ag.Eq over 5.20 m, approximately 44 m beneath the last stope mined where channel sample results returned a composite weighted average grade of 266 g/t Ag.Eq over a strike length of 29 m and an average width of 2.9 m⁽²⁾.
  • Hole Q-23-003 successfully intersected replacement mineralization, returning 300 g/t Ag.Eq over 0.32 m (C460B1) and 414 g/t Ag.Eq over 0.84 m (C460B2), which is 75 m directly on-strike to the north of the C460B2 mineralization encountered in hole Q-23-001.
  • Hole Q-23-005 successfully intersected replacement mineralization returning 225 g/t Ag.Eq over 1.52 m (C460B1) and 172 g/t over 0.97 m (C460B2) extending the C460B Zone to 110 m below the bottommost stope mined in the zone.

Hole Q-23-001

Hole Q-23-001 was drilled to target the C460B Zone, within the Quebradillas Mine, approximately 44 m beneath the last stope mined in this zone, successfully intersecting replacement mineralization returning 299 g/t Ag.Eq over 1.64 m (32.70 to 34.34 m) and 328 g/t Ag.Eq over 1.60 m (36.30 to 37.90 m) within a broader interval grading 206 g/t Ag.Eq over 5.20 m (32.70 to 37.90 m).

These results compare favorably with and validate historical channel sample results previously completed by First Majestic Silver within the extracted stope (located 44 m directly above hole Q-23-001). The composite weighted average grade of the channel samples in this stope is 266 g/t Ag.Eq over a strike length of 29 m and average width of 2.9 m. Specifically hole Q-23-001 cut across the zone directly underneath channel 460B-1766-040 which graded 211 g/t Ag.Eq over 4.10 m, which is directly in-line with the intercept from this hole. Furthermore, historical hole ILP-Q-15-05 intersected 270 g/t Ag.Eq over 6.6 m approximately 26 m up-dip above hole Q-23-001. The combination of these results should result in an expansion of Indicated Resources within this area.

Capital management policies and procedures

When managing capital, the Company's objective is to ensure the entity continues as a going concern as well as to maintain optimal returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. The Company's capital items are cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and share capital. Management adjusts the capital structure as necessary in order to support the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management but rather relies on the expertise of the Company's management team to sustain the future development of the business.

The property in which the Company currently has an interest is in the exploration stage. As such the Company is dependent on external financing to fund its activities. In order to carry out the planned exploration and pay for administrative costs, the Company will spend its existing working capital and raise additional amounts as needed. The Company will continue to assess new properties and seek to acquire an interest in additional properties if it feels there is sufficient potential and if it has adequate financial resources to do so. Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is appropriate.

There were no changes in the Company's approach to capital management during the twelve-month period ended March 31, 2025. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

Financial instruments risks

The Company is exposed to various risks in relation to financial instruments. The Company's financial assets and liabilities by category are summarized in note 3 in the Company's consolidated financial statements. The main types of risks are market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's risk management is coordinated in close cooperation with the Board of Directors, and focuses on actively securing the Company's short to medium-term cash flows by minimizing the exposure to financial markets. The Company does not actively engage in the trading of financial assets for speculative purposes.

The most significant financial risks to which the Company is exposed are described below. The Company is exposed to market risk through its use of financial instruments and specifically to currency risk and market risk on the marketable securities. No changes were made in the objectives, policies and processes during the reporting periods.

Foreign currency risk

Most of the Company's transactions are carried out in Canadian dollars. Exposures to currency exchange rates arise from the Company's expenses in foreign currency, which are primarily denominated in US dollars and Mexican Pesos since a portion of the Company's expenditures related to exploration and evaluation activities are incurred in US dollars and Mexican Pesos. The Company does not enter into arrangements to hedge its foreign exchange risk.

Financial instruments denominated in foreign currency are as follows:

Short term exposure – US Dollars March 31, 2025 (US$) March 31, 2024 (US$)
Cash and cash equivalents 845,872 379,581
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities (703,073) (125,616)
Due to First Majestic Silver Corp. (3,164,307) (2,893,686)
Total short-term exposure (3,021,508) (2,639,721)
Short term exposure – Mexican Pesos March 31, 2025 (MX$) March 31, 2024 (MX$)
--- --- ---
Cash and cash equivalents 244,994 241,978
Other receivable 694,977 1,412,000
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities (5,100,952) (10,326,892)
Total short-term exposure (4,160,981) (8,672,914)

At March 31, 2025, with other variables unchanged, a 10% change in the US/CDN and Peso/CDN exchange rate would impact pre-tax income by approximately $434,372 and $29,441, respectively (fifteen months ended March 31, 2024 - $34,489 and $461,695, respectively). Exposure to foreign exchange rates varies during the period depending on the volume of foreign transaction.

Interest rate risk

The Company has $2,353,167 cash and cash equivalents balance and no interest-bearing debt and was not exposed to interest rate risk. The Company's current policy is to invest excess cash in high yield savings accounts and guaranteed investment certificates issued by a Canadian chartered bank with which it keeps its bank accounts. The Company periodically monitors the investments it makes and is satisfied with the creditworthiness of its Canadian chartered bank. As a result, the Company's exposure to interest rate risk is minimal.

Credit risk

The Company's maximum exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amount of financial assets. The credit risk is considered not material, since the counterparties are reputable banks with high quality external credit ratings and Canadian sales taxes receivable.

Future Applicable Accounting Standards

IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, which replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18 introduces new requirements for presentation within the statement of profit or loss, including specified totals and subtotals. Furthermore, entities are required to classify all income and expenses within the statement of profit or loss into one of five categories: operating, investing, financing, income taxes and discontinued operations, whereof the first three are new.

It also requires disclosure of newly defined management-defined performance measures, subtotals of income and expenses, and includes new requirements for aggregation and disaggregation of financial information based on the identified 'roles' of the primary financial statements (PFS) and the notes.

In addition, narrow-scope amendments have been made to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows, which include changing the starting point for determining cash flows from operations under the indirect method, from 'profit or loss' to 'operating profit or loss' and removing the optionality around classification of cash flows from dividends and interest. In addition, there are consequential amendments to several other standards.

IFRS 18, and the amendments to the other standards, is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027, but earlier application is permitted and must be disclosed. IFRS 18 will apply retrospectively. The Company is currently working to identify all impacts the amendments will have on the primary consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Share Capital

As at the date of this MD&A, the Company had 594,869,273 common shares, 188,310,358 warrants and 19,700,000 stock options outstanding, which resulted in fully diluted common shares of 802,879,631.

Disclosure of Internal Controls

Management has established processes to provide them with sufficient knowledge to support representations that they have exercised reasonable diligence to ensure that the consolidated financial statements (i) do not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated or that is necessary to make a statement not misleading in light of the circumstances under which it is made, and (ii) fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flow of the Company, in each case as of the date of and for the periods presented by such statements.

In contrast to the certificate required for non-venture issuers under National Instrument 52-109 – Certification of Disclosure in Issuers' Annual and Interim Filings ("NI 52-109"), the Venture Issuer Basic Certificate filed by the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company does not include representations relating to the establishment and maintenance of disclosure controls and procedures ("DC&P") and internal control over financial reporting ("ICFR"), as such terms are defined in NI 52-109. In particular, the certifying officers filing such certificate are not making any representations relating to the establishment and maintenance of:

  • 38 -

Silver Storm Mining Ltd.
Management's Discussion & Analysis
Twelve Month Ended March 31, 2025
Dated: June 30, 2025

(i) controls and other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its annual filings, interim filings or other reports filed or submitted under securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in securities legislation; and
(ii) a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS.

The Company's certifying officers are responsible for ensuring that processes are in place to provide them with sufficient knowledge to support the representations they are making in such certificate. Investors should be aware that inherent limitations on the ability of the Company's certifying officers of a venture issuer to design and implement, on a cost-effective basis, DC&P and ICFR may result in additional risks to the quality, reliability, transparency and timeliness of interim and annual filings and other reports required to be provided under securities legislation.

Risks and Uncertainties

The exploration, development and mining of mineral resources are highly speculative in nature and are subject to significant risks. In addition to the usual risks associated with an investment in a business at an early stage of development, management and the directors of the Company believe that, in particular, the following risk factors should be considered by prospective investors. It should be noted that this list is not exhaustive and that other risk factors may apply. An investment in the Company may not be suitable for all investors.

Nature of Mining, Mineral Exploration and Development Projects

Mining operations generally involve a high degree of risk. The Company's operations are subject to the hazards and risks normally encountered in mineral exploration, including environmental hazards, and unusual or unexpected geological occurrences. Such risks could result in damage to, or destruction of, mineral properties or producing facilities, personal injury, environmental damage, monetary losses and possible legal liability.

Mineral exploration is highly speculative in nature. There is no assurance that exploration efforts will be successful. Even when mineralization is discovered, it may take several years until production is possible, during which time the economic feasibility of production may change.

Substantial expenditures are required to establish proven and probable mineral reserves through drilling. Because of these uncertainties, no assurance can be given that exploration programs will result in the establishment or expansion of mineral resources or mineral reserves. There is no certainty that the expenditures made by the Company towards the search and evaluation of mineral deposits will result in discoveries or development of commercial quantities of ore.

No Revenues

To date the Company has recorded no revenues from operations and the Company has not commenced commercial production on any property. There can be no assurance that significant losses will not occur in the near future or that the Company will be profitable in the future. The Company's operating expenses and capital expenditures may increase in subsequent years related to consultants, personnel and equipment associated with advancing exploration, development and commercial production of the Company's properties. The Company expects to continue to incur losses unless and until such time as it enters into commercial production and generates sufficient revenues to fund its continuing operations. The development of the Company's properties will require the commitment of substantial resources to conduct time-consuming development. There can be no assurance that the Company will generate any revenues or achieve profitability.

Foreign Exchange

Exploration is paid in United States dollars in Mexico and consequently, the Company is subject to foreign exchange risks relating to the relative value of the Canadian dollar as compared to the US dollar.

Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve Estimates may be Inaccurate

There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating mineral resources and mineral reserves, including many factors beyond the control of the Company. Such estimates are a subjective process, and the accuracy of any mineral resource or mineral reserve estimate is a function of the quantity and quality of available data and of the assumptions made and judgments used in engineering and geological interpretation. These amounts are estimates only and the actual level of mineral recovery from such deposits may be different.

Title to Properties

The acquisition of title to resource properties is a very detailed and time-consuming process. The Company holds its interest in certain of its properties through mining claims. Title to, and the area of, the mining claims may be disputed. There is no guarantee that such title will not be challenged or impaired. There may be challenges to the title of the properties in which the Company may have an interest, which, if successful, could result in the loss or reduction of the Company's interest in the properties.

Commodity Price Risk

The ability of the Company to develop its properties and the future profitability of the Company are directly related to the market price of certain minerals.

Government Regulations, Permitting and Taxation

The Company's exploration operations are subject to government legislation, policies and controls relating to prospecting, development, production, environmental protection, mining taxes and labour standards. In order for the Company to carry out its activities, its various licences and permits must be obtained and kept current. There is no guarantee that the Company's licences and permits will be granted, or that once granted

  • 40 -

Silver Storm Mining Ltd.
Management's Discussion & Analysis
Twelve Month Ended March 31, 2025
Dated: June 30, 2025

will be extended. In addition, the terms and conditions of such licences or permits could be changed and there can be no assurances that any application to renew any existing licences will be approved. There can be no assurance that all permits that the Company requires will be obtainable on reasonable terms, or at all. Delays or a failure to obtain such permits, or a failure to comply with the terms of any such permits that the Company has obtained, could have a material adverse impact on the Company. The Company may be required to contribute to the cost of providing the required infrastructure to facilitate the development of its properties. The Company will also have to obtain and comply with permits and licences that may contain specific conditions concerning operating procedures, water use, waste disposal, spills, environmental studies, abandonment and restoration plans and financial assurances. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to comply with any such conditions. Future taxation of mining operators cannot be predicted with certainty so planning must be undertaken using present conditions and best estimates of any potential future changes.

Health, Safety and Community Relations

The Company's operations are subject to various health and safety laws and regulations that impose various duties on the Company's operations relating to, among other things, worker safety and obligations in respect of surrounding communities. These laws and regulations also grant the relevant authorities broad powers to, among other things, close unsafe operations and order corrective action relating to health and safety matters. The costs associated with the compliance with such health and safety laws and regulations may be substantial and any amendments to such laws and regulations, or more stringent implementation thereof, could cause additional expenditure or impose restrictions on, or suspensions of, the Company's operations. The Company has made, and expects to make in the future, significant expenditure to comply with the extensive laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment, waste disposal, worker safety, mine development and protection of endangered and other special status species, and, to the extent reasonably practicable, to create social and economic benefit in the surrounding communities near the Company's mineral properties.

Environmental Protection

The mining and mineral processing industries are subject to extensive governmental regulations for the protection of the environment, including regulations relating to air and water quality, mine reclamation, solid and hazardous waste handling and disposal and the promotion of occupational health and safety, which may adversely affect the Company or require it to expend significant funds. There is also a risk that environmental and other laws and regulations may become more onerous, making it more costly for the Company to remain in compliance with such laws and regulations.

Reliance on Key Personnel

The Company's development to date has largely depended and in the future will continue to depend on the efforts of key management and other key personnel. Loss of any of these people, particularly to competitors, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business. Further, with respect to future development of the Company's projects, it may become necessary to attract both international and local personnel for such development. The marketplace for key skilled personnel is becoming more competitive, which means the cost of hiring, training and retaining such personnel may increase. Factors outside the Company's control, including competition for human capital and the high level of technical expertise and


Silver Storm Mining Ltd.
Management's Discussion & Analysis
Twelve Month Ended March 31, 2025
Dated: June 30, 2025

experience required to execute this development, will affect the Company's ability to employ the specific personnel required. The failure to retain or attract a sufficient number of key skilled personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition. The Company has not taken out and does not intend to take out 'key person' insurance in respect of any directors, officers or other employees.

Global Financial Conditions

Recent global financial conditions have been characterized by increased volatility and access to public financing, particularly for junior mineral exploration companies, has been negatively impacted. These conditions may affect the Company's ability to obtain equity or debt financing in the future on terms favourable to the Company or at all. If such conditions continue, the Company's operations could be negatively impacted.

Infrastructure

Mining, processing, development and exploration activities depend, to one degree or another, on adequate infrastructure. Reliable roads, power sources and water supply are important determinants affecting capital and operating costs. Unusual or infrequent weather phenomena, sabotage, government or other interference in the maintenance or provision of such infrastructure could adversely affect the Company's operations, financial condition and results of operations.

Public Company Obligations

The Company's business is subject to evolving corporate governance and public disclosure regulations that have increased both the Company's compliance costs and the risk of non-compliance, which could have a material adverse impact on the Company's share price.

The Company is subject to changing rules and regulations promulgated by a number of governmental and self-regulated organizations, including the Canadian Securities Administrators, the TSXV, and the International Accounting Standards Board. These rules and regulations continue to evolve in scope and complexity creating many new requirements. The Company's efforts to comply with rules and obligations could result in increased general and administration expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities.

Reporting requirements

As a reporting issuer, the Company is subject to reporting requirements under applicable securities law and exchange policies. Compliance with these requirements increases legal and financial compliance costs, makes some activities more difficult, time consuming and costly and increases demand on existing Company systems and resources. Among other things, the Company is required to file annual, quarterly and current reports with respect to its business and results of operations and maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures over financial reporting. During the course of engaging with auditors to prepare reports and review the Company's financial results, various factors may lead to delays in the preparation, and potentially the filing of the Company's financial results. Despite management's diligent efforts to comply with auditor requests and provide the necessary documentation, there is no assurance that all requirements

  • 42 -

Silver Storm Mining Ltd.
Management's Discussion & Analysis
Twelve Month Ended March 31, 2025
Dated: June 30, 2025

will be met to facilitate the timely issuance of an audit report. Additionally, regulatory challenges associated with the Canadian Public Accountability Board (CPAB) and other oversight bodies, or disagreements between management and auditors regarding accounting policies, fair market valuations of non-recurring transactions, differing interpretations of accounting standards, or assessments of the company's business model can further contribute to delays. Failure to comply with deadlines may result in regulatory penalties, loss of investor confidence, and potential reputational damage. These outcomes could adversely impact the Company's operational efficiency, financial reporting, and overall market position.

United States Tariffs and Retaliatory Tariffs

In early 2025, the new U.S. administration applied tariffs on a variety of imports, including certain imports from Canada. In response, Canada has applied tariffs on certain imports from the United States. The international trade disputes sparked by the tariffs imposed by the United States and other countries in response thereto, including a further escalation in tariffs, retaliatory tariffs, and/or the withdrawal from, or changes to, international trade agreements, are expected to have a negative impact on the Canadian and global economy and could adversely affect the Company's financial condition. In addition, general uncertainty regarding possible future tariffs, international trade disputes and restrictive trade policies may have a negative impact on the Canadian and global economy and adversely affect the Company's financial condition.
