The following table discloses what the Company's available funds will be after the Offering, together with additional sources of funding:

The Company's most recently filed audited annual financial statements and interim financial report each include a going concern note. The Company is an exploration stage mining company and has not yet generated positive cash flows from its operating activities, which may cast doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Offering is not expected to affect the decision to include a going concern note in the next annual financial statements of the Company.
The Company intends to spend the funds available to it as stated above. However, there may be circumstances where, for sound business reasons, a reallocation of the net proceeds may be necessary. The actual amount that the Company spends in connection with each of the intended uses of proceeds will depend on a number of factors, including the Company's ability to execute on its business plan and financing objectives.
How have we used the other funds we have raised in the past 12 months?
On January 19, 2026, the Company completed the January 2026 Offering. The Company issued 4,000,000 common shares for aggregate gross proceeds of C$200,000. The proceeds of the January 2026 Offering will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
| Previous Financing | Intended Use of Funds | Use of Funds to Date | Variance and Impact on Business Objectives |

Forward-looking statements are based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by the Company at this time, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies that may cause the Company's actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied herein. Some of the material factors or assumptions used to develop forward-looking statements include, without limitation, anticipated costs and the Company's ability to fund its programs; the Company's ability to carry on exploration activities; the Company's ability to secure and to meet obligations under property agreements; the timing and results of planned exploration drilling programs; the discovery of mineral resources and mineral reserves; that political and legal developments will be consistent with current expectations; the timely receipt of required approvals and permits; the costs of operating and exploration expenditures; the Company's ability to obtain financing as and when required and on reasonable terms; that the Company's activities will be in accordance with the Company's public statements and stated goals; and that there will be no material adverse change or disruptions affecting the Company or the Wildcat Property.
