ABOUT DOYON

Tectonic and Doyon initially partnered in the summer of 2018, where Tectonic was granted exclusive rights to explore, develop and mine all minerals, ores and mineral products extracted from Tectonic’s Seventymile and Northway Projects, which are situated on Doyon land. Forming partnerships and establishing production agreements on Tectonic’s early-stage projects at the onset is a critical component of Tectonic’s business model. Such discovery-to-production agreements manage risks and align the interests and expectations of all parties involved, so the task of advancing a project from discovery through to the development of a mine is more streamlined.

==> picture [96 x 19] intentionally omitted <==

On July 30, 2019, the Company received notice from another junior mining company that seven of the claims at Tibbs wholly or partially overstake their claims, and that they are asserting the senior claim. Tectonic considers the disputed claims to be non-core, and this notice will not impact Tectonic’s exploration efforts going forward on the rest of the Company’s Tibbs claims. The Company is currently investigating the validity of this notice with its counsel and will not be performing any exploration work on the disputed claims until the matter is resolved.

Option Payments and Exploration Commitments

In consideration for the Tibbs Agreement, the Company paid TCG $239,098 ($180,000 USD) to December 31, 2020. The Company is committed to paying a $50,000 USD option payment each June in 2021-2027 (the “Tibbs Anniversary Payments”). The Company must incur an aggregate amount of $1,000,000 USD in exploration expenditures by June 15, 2022. As of December 31, 2020, the Company fulfilled this exploration expenditure commitment and is up to date on the Tibbs Anniversary Payments. Further, the Company has agreed to pay TCG a cash payment of $1,000,000 USD if the Company commences commercial production on the Tibbs Property. The Company has the option to acquire the Tibbs Property at any time during the lease term by making a lump sum payment equal to the aggregate amount of any remaining Tibbs Anniversary Payments. If during the term of the Tibbs Agreement the Company completes a preliminary economy assessment (“PEA”), the Company must make a cash payment of $25,000 USD each year to Tibbs in addition to the Tibbs Anniversary Payments.

Carrie Creek and Mt. Harper Properties

In August 2020, the Company entered into a mining lease agreement with Doyon for a 100% interest in two areas of Alaska Native Regional Corporation mineral estate in the Goodpaster District, Alaska (the “Carrie Creek and Mt.

1. Eligible expenditures include all actual, direct costs, expenses, and charges related to exploration and development conducted on or for the benefit of the Carrie Creek and Mt. Harper Properties, including without limitation costs and expenses off the property and reasonably allocated to operations on the property. The Company is permitted to carry forward excess expenditures and apply them against a future year. Tectonic is required to spend at least 25% of its required aggregate expenditures for each expenditure period for the benefit of each the Carrie Creek Property and Mt. Harper Property.

Additionally, the Company contributes to the Doyon Foundation, an annual $10,000 USD scholarship for the term of the lease. The scholarship amount increases to $50,000 USD each year following the commencement of commercial production at either the Carrie Creek or Mt. Harper Property. The Company paid Doyon $10,000 USD for a scholarship payment during the year ended December 31, 2020.

Exploration Program for Tibbs, Carrie Creek and Mt. Harper Properties

During July and August 2020, the Company completed a Rotary Air Blast (“RAB”) drill program at the Tibbs Property. The drill program targeted expansion of the Company’s 2019 drill discovery of 6.03 grams per tonne gold (“g/t Au”) over 28.95 metres (“m”) at the Michigan Zone. The 2020 drill program focused on stepping out from this highlight drill intercept while also testing for additional Michigan-style structures along a 3 kilometre (“km”) long prospective corridor at the Upper and Lower Trench Zone and the Wolverine Zone. The Company drilled 3,202m over a total of 27 holes.

The 2020 drill program identified additional high-grade gold at Michigan with highlight intercepts of 6.71 g/t Au over 9.14m including 19.3 g/t Au over 3.05m, 2.61 g/t Au over 12.19m including 5.56 g/t Au over 3.05m, and 3.73 g/t Au over 7.62m including 12.8 g/t Au over 1.52m. Drilling delineated over 275m of strike, with all 2020 drill holes intersecting gold mineralization along a northeast-trending corridor open to the northeast, southwest, and at depth.

The 2020 drill program identified a highlight intercept at Lower Trench of 10.78 g/t Au over 3.05m within a broader interval of 4.50 g/t Au over 7.62m. Gold was found in association with disseminated sulphides in sericite-altered granodiorite and discrete quartz-sulphide veins, identical to the Michigan Zone. The recognition of Michigan-style mineralization at Lower Trench indicates that a significant hydrothermal system was active

throughout a multi-kilometre structural damage zone, expanding the potential of both the Michigan and Lower Trench targets.

In addition, the Company collected 1,153 soil and 115 rock samples at the Tibbs and Carrie Creek Properties over prospective ground with the goal of generating new drill targets for follow up. A highlight was a 27.9 g/t Au rock grab sample of granodiorite cut by sheeted quarter veins containing visible gold. As well, the Company conducted an induced polarization (“IP”) geophysical survey to test the strike and depth extent of mineralization in the Michigan structural corridor.

HEALTH AND SAFETY, ENVIRONMENT, AND COMMUNITY

Health and Safety

There were no fatalities or lost time injuries reported at any of the Company’s project sites.

During June 2020, certain officers and employees of the Company met virtually with a representative from Alaska’s Occupational Health & Safety (“AKOSH”). The AKOSH representative provided an informative presentation outlining the Company’s legal responsibilities regarding health & safety while working in Alaska, employee protected rights, and directed the Company to additional resources.

COVID-19 Mitigation Plan

The Company has a robust COVID-19 mitigation plan for its exploration work being conducted in Alaska. All employees and contractors presented a qualifying negative COVID-19 test to enter Alaska. While waiting for transportation, all individuals self-isolated at a hotel room. The team travelled directly to the first drill site at the Tibbs Property in privately arranged transportation. The same crew remained onsite and travelled directly between the Company’s properties for the duration of the exploration programs to minimize community exposure.

The Company implemented additional safety measures at program sites for all employees and contractors including frequent washing of hands, discouraging sharing of tools and equipment, regular cleaning and disinfecting of surfaces, maintaining a physical distance of at least 2m when possible, and daily temperature readings of all individuals. All non-essential travel to rural communities was prohibited. If resupplies were required, the individual shopping was required to practice social distancing.

A basic response plan was implemented that if a person displayed signs and symptoms of COVID-19, the person was not to come to the work site. If the person was already at camp, they were to remain in their tent until their supervisor was alerted to the situation and then they were to be moved to an area separated from others. Given the small size of the camps, if one person became infected or is suspected of being infected, the entire camp would enter into quarantine from the community. An extraction plan was in place depending on the severity of the symptoms. The Company would coordinate and communicate with local and state officials if any cases of suspected cases arose.

As of the date of this report, there have been no cases or suspected cases of COVID-19 at any of the Company’s project and work sites.

Environment

There were no environmental issues reported at any of the Company’s project sites.

Community

As per the Seventymile Agreement, during May 2020 the Company paid its annual $25,000 USD scholarship contribution to the Doyon Foundation. The Doyon Foundation was established as a separate nonprofit

11

charitable organization in 1989 by Doyon. Doyon Foundation’s mission is to provide educational, career and cultural opportunities to enhance the identity and quality of life for Doyon shareholders. Doyon Foundation carries out its mission by providing basic and competitive scholarships, works with organizations to place interns, and advances traditional Native knowledge by partnering with various organizations.

As per the Carrie Creek Mt. Harper Agreement, during August 2020 the Company paid its annual $10,000 USD scholarship contribution to the Alaska Resource Education (“ARE”), a non-profit organization whose mission is to educate students about Alaska’s resources. ARE provides statewide educational opportunities to students & teachers and distributes primary education curriculum.

During May 2020, certain members of the Tectonic team including the Chief Executive Officer and Vice President, Exploration, virtually met with the chiefs of select local villages in and around the Northway and Seventymile Properties to discuss potential upcoming programs, job opportunities, and to assess the current states of affairs given the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Diversity

During November 2020, all employees and directors of Tectonic participated in a two-day anti-racism workshop.. The awareness training developed Tectonic’s collective understanding of anti-racism by providing tools to embed practices of equity, diversity and inclusion both corporately and personally with the overall mission that all members of our community feel welcomed, valued and supported to achieve their highest potential.

The Company is in the process of establishing an anti-racism scholarship and the development and implementation of an anti-racism workshop targeting participation from the broader natural resource community. Other company initiatives include cultural awareness training and co-training for indigenous work.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Summary of cash position and changes in cash

	Year ended Mar. 31, 2021	Year ended Mar. 31, 2020
Cash flow used in operating activities Cash flow used in investing activities Cash flow used in financing activities Effect of foreign exchange on cash Net change Cash – beginning of period	$ (584,035) (50,928) (7,405) (1,821) 644,189 3,423,212	$ (878,787) (78,885) (7,202) 10,772 (954,102) 1,791,241
Cash — end of period	$ 3,423,212	$ 837,139

Cash flow used in operations was lower during the three month period ended March 31, 2021 compared to March 31, 2020 due to the Company having a smaller loss for the 3 month period year ended March 31, 2021.

Cash flow used in investing activities was lower during the three month period ended March 31, 2021 compared to March 31, 2020 as the Company had less exploration activity.

Cash flow used in financing activities during the three month period ended March 31, 2021 compared to March 31, 2020 was a result of the difference in lease payments.

Going concern

The Financial Statements and financial results discussed herein of the Company were prepared assuming Tectonic will continue on a going concern basis. The Company has incurred losses since its inception and the ability of the Company to continue as a going-concern depends upon its ability to raise adequate financing and to develop profitable operations. The Financial Statements do not include adjustments to amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue operations. Management estimates it has sufficient funds to continue operations for the next 12 months.

Capital Management

The Company manages its capital structure based on the funds available to the Company in order to support the acquisition and exploration of exploration and evaluation assets. 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 to sustain future development of the business. The Company defines capital that it manages as components of shareholders’ equity.

The properties in which the Company currently has an interest are in the exploration stage and are not positive cash-flow generating; as such the Company has historically relied on the equity markets to fund its activities.

Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital restrictions.

There has been no significant change in the Company's objectives, policies, and processes for managing its capital during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

SHAREHOLDER'S EQUITY

Tectonic is authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares without par value. As at March 31, 2021 and date of this report the Company had 89,917,175 common shares outstanding.

Restricted Shares

On July 29, 2019, the Company adopted a restricted share plan (the “Restricted Share Plan”). The Company may grant common shares to eligible employees, officers, directors and consultants with performance conditions to be determined by the Company’ board of directors (a “Restricted Share”). No cash consideration is received for Restricted Shares. Performance conditions are placed on the Restricted Shares as determined by the Board. If employees fail to meet the conditions, the Restricted Shares are subsequently cancelled and returned to the Company’s treasury. The Restricted Share Plan permits the issuance of restricted shares, which, together with the Stock Option Plan, may not exceed 10% of the Company’ issued common shares as at the date of grant.

16

Management’s Discussion and Analysis Three Months Ended March 31, 2021

==> picture [96 x 19] intentionally omitted <==

On July 29, 2019, the Company granted 2,400,000 Restricted Shares, and on September 17, 2019, the Company granted 950,000 Restricted Shares. Both grants were to certain employees and directors at a value of $0.35 per Restricted Share. The performance condition set by the Board was a two-year employment period from the date of grant. During the year ended December 31, 2020, 675,000 Restricted Shares were forfeited and the shares were cancelled.

Stock Options

On April 10, 2019, the Company adopted a stock option plan (the “Stock Option Plan”). The Company may grant share options to eligible employees, officers, directors and consultants at an exercise price, expiry date and vesting conditions to be determined by the Company’s board of directors. The maximum expiry date is 10 years from the grant date. The Stock Option Plan permits the issuance of stock options which, together with the Restricted Share Plan, may not exceed 10% of the Company’s issued common shares as at the date of grant.

On July 27, 2020, the Company granted 400,000 stock options to newly appointed William Stormont, Investor Relations. Each stock option has an exercise price of $0.33 and expire July 27, 2025. The stock options vest as follows: 100,000 vest July 27, 2021, 100,000 vest July 27, 2022, and 200,000 vest July 27, 2023. The vesting is conditional upon continued employment with the Company.

On April 7, 2021, the Company granted an employee 400,000 stock options. Each stock option has an exercise price set at a 35% premium to the share price on the date of the grant of the Options. The Options shall vest in four equal installments with 100,000 Options vesting on the first anniversary of the Agreement, and an additional 100,000 Options vesting on the three subsequent anniversary dates thereafter. The vesting and exercise of Options shall otherwise be governed by the terms and conditions of the Company’s stock option plan. As of the date of this report there were 800,000 stock options outstanding.

Escrow

The Company entered into an escrow agreement pursuant to which 19,272,071 common shares and 4,275,642 warrants have been placed in escrow. The escrow agreement provides that 10% of the escrowed securities will be released upon the Company’s listing date and that an additional 15% will be released every six months after, over a period of 36 months. As of March 31, 2021 and the date of this report, there were 11,563,243 common shares and 2,565,387 warrants held in escrow.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Financial Assets and Liabilities

The Company's financial assets, which consist of cash and accounts receivable, and financial liabilities, which consist of trade and other payables, are both classified as amortized cost. The value of cash and trade and other payables approximates their carrying values as at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 due to their short-term nature.

Financial Risk Factors

The Company is exposed to a variety of financial risks by virtue of its activities including credit, liquidity, interest rate, foreign currency, and price risk.

Credit risk

The Company is exposed to industry credit risks arising from its cash. The Company manages credit risk by holding cash with major Canadian financial institutions. Management believes that credit risk related to these amounts is nominal.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not have sufficient funds to meet its financial obligations when they are due. To manage liquidity risk, the Company has in place a planning and budgeting process to help determine the funds required to support the Company's operating requirements on an ongoing basis and assess available and required sources of additional capital and financing.

19

Management’s Discussion and Analysis Three Months Ended March 31, 2021

==> picture [96 x 19] intentionally omitted <==

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is not exposed to interest rate risk as it does not have any significant financial instruments with interest rates, with the exception of cash. Interest earned on cash is based on prevailing bank account interest rates, which may fluctuate. A 10% change in interest rates would result in a nominal difference for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Foreign currency risk

The Company is exposed to nominally foreign currency risk on fluctuations related to cash and trade and other payables that are denominated in United States Dollars.

Price risk

The Company has limited exposure to price risk with respect to commodity and 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. Commodity price risk is defined as the potential adverse impact on earnings and economic value due to commodity price movements and volatilities.

RISKS TO TECTONIC

The primary risk factors affecting the Company are set forth below. For additional discussion of risk factors, please refer to the Company’s Annual Information Form dated April13, 2020, which is available on www.sedar.com.

Exploration Stage Company

The Company is an exploration stage company and cannot give assurance that a commercially viable deposit, or "reserve," exists on any properties for which the Company currently has or may have (through potential future joint venture agreements or acquisitions) an interest. Therefore, the determination of the existence of a reserve depends on appropriate and sufficient exploration work and the evaluation of legal, economic, and environmental factors. If the Company fails to find a commercially viable deposit on any of its properties, its financial condition and results of operations will be materially adversely affected.

Mineral Exploration and Development

Resource exploration and development is a speculative business, characterized by a number of significant risks including, among other things, unprofitable efforts resulting not only from the failure to discover mineral deposits but from finding mineral deposits which, though present, are insufficient in quantity and quality to return a profit from production. The marketability of minerals acquired or discovered by the Company may be affected by numerous factors which are beyond the control of the Company and which cannot be accurately

20

Management’s Discussion and Analysis Three Months Ended March 31, 2021

==> picture [96 x 19] intentionally omitted <==

predicted, such as market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of milling facilities, mineral markets and processing equipment and such other factors as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection, the combination of which factors may result in the Company not receiving an adequate return of investment capital.

There is no assurance that the Company's mineral exploration and development activities will result in any discoveries of commercial bodies of ore. The long-term profitability of the Company's operations will in part, be directly related to the costs and success of its exploration programs, which may be affected by a number of factors. Substantial expenditures are required to establish reserves through drilling and to develop the mining and processing facilities and infrastructure at any site chosen for mining. Although substantial benefits may be derived from the discovery of a major mineralized deposit, no assurance can be given that minerals will be discovered in sufficient quantities to justify commercial operations or that funds required for development can be obtained on a timely basis.

Substantial expenditures are required to establish ore reserves through exploration and drilling, to develop metallurgical processes to extract the metal from the ore and, in the case of new properties, to develop the mining and processing facilities and infrastructure at any site chosen for mining. Although substantial benefits may be derived from the discovery of a major mineralized deposit, no assurance can be given that minerals will be discovered in sufficient quantities and grades to justify commercial operations or that funds required for development can be obtained on a timely basis. Estimates of reserves, mineral deposits and production costs can also be affected by such factors as environmental permitting regulations and requirements, weather, environmental factors, unforeseen technical difficulties, unusual or unexpected geological formations and work interruptions. In addition, the grade of ore ultimately mined may differ from that indicated by drilling results. Short term factors relating to reserves, such as the need for the orderly development of ore bodies or the processing of new or different grades, may also have an adverse effect on mining operations and the results of operations. Material changes in ore reserves, grades, stripping ratios or recovery rates may affect the economic viability of any project.

Competition and Mineral Exploration

The mineral exploration industry is intensely competitive in all of its phases, and the Company must compete in all aspects of its operations with a substantial number of large established mining companies with greater liquidity, greater access to credit and other financial resources, newer or more efficient equipment, lower cost structures, more effective risk management policies and procedures and/or greater ability than the Company to withstand losses. The Company's competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new laws or regulations or emerging technologies or devote greater resources to the expansion of their operations than the Company can. In addition, current and potential competitors may make strategic acquisitions or establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties. Competition could adversely affect the Company's ability to acquire suitable new producing properties or prospects for exploration in the future. Competition could also affect the Company's ability to raise financing to fund the exploration and development of its properties or to hire qualified personnel. The Company may not be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors, and any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations.

21

Management’s Discussion and Analysis Three Months Ended March 31, 2021

==> picture [96 x 19] intentionally omitted <==

Limited Operating History

The Company has a limited operating history, and its mineral properties are exploration stage properties. As such, the Company will be subject to all of the business risks and uncertainties associated with any new business enterprise, including under-capitalization, cash shortages, limitations with respect to personnel, financial and other resources and lack of revenues. The current state of the Company's mineral properties requires significant additional expenditures before any cash flow may be generated. Although Tectonic possesses an experienced management team, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving a return on shareholders' investment, and the likelihood of success of the Company must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered in connection with the establishment of any business. There is no assurance that the Company can generate revenues, operate profitably, or provide a return on investment, or that it will successfully implement its plans.

Negative Cash Flow from Operating Activities

The Company has no history of earnings and had negative cash flow from operating activities since inception. The Company's mineral properties are in the exploration stage, and there are no known mineral resources or reserves and the proposed exploration programs on the Company's mineral properties are exploratory in nature. Significant capital investment will be required to achieve commercial production from the Company's existing projects. There is no assurance that any of the Company's mineral properties will generate earnings, operate profitably or provide a return on investment in the future. Accordingly, the Company will be required to obtain additional financing to meet its future cash commitments.

Going Concern Risk

The Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under which an entity is considered to be able to realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company's future operations are dependent upon the identification and successful completion of equity or debt financings and the achievement of profitable operations at an indeterminate time in the future. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in completing equity or debt financings or in achieving profitability. The Financial Statements do not give effect to any adjustments relating to the carrying values and classifications of assets and liabilities that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Additional Funding

The exploration and development of the Company's mineral properties will require substantial additional capital. When such additional capital is required, the Company will need to pursue various financing transactions or arrangements, including joint venturing of projects, debt financing, equity financing or other means. Additional financing may not be available when needed or, if available, the terms of such financing might not be favourable to the Company and might involve substantial dilution to existing shareholders. The Company may not be successful in locating suitable financing transactions in the time period required or at all. A failure to raise capital when needed would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. Any future issuance of securities to raise required capital will likely be dilutive to existing shareholders. In addition, debt and other debt financings may involve a pledge of assets and may be senior to interests of equity holders. The Company may incur substantial costs in pursuing future

22

Management’s Discussion and Analysis Three Months Ended March 31, 2021

==> picture [96 x 19] intentionally omitted <==

capital requirements, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, securities law compliance fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs. The ability to obtain needed financing may be impaired by such factors as the capital markets (both generally and in the gold and copper industries in particular), the Company's status as a new enterprise with a limited history, the location of the Company's mineral properties, the price of commodities and/or the loss of key management personnel.

Government or Regulatory Approvals

Exploration and development activities are dependent upon the grant of appropriate licenses, concessions, leases, permits and regulatory consents, which may be withdrawn or made subject to limitations. There is no guarantee that, upon completion of any exploration, a mining license will be granted with respect to exploration territory. There can also be no assurance that any exploration license will be renewed, or if so, on what terms. These licenses place a range of past, current and future obligations on the Company. In some cases, there could be adverse consequences for breach of these obligations, ranging from penalties to, in extreme cases, suspension or termination of the relevant license or related contract.

Permits and Government Regulation

The future operations of the Company may require permits from various federal, state, provincial and local governmental authorities and will be governed by laws and regulations governing prospecting, development, mining, production, export, taxes, labour standards, occupational health, waste disposal, land use, environmental protection, mine safety and other matters. Although the U.S. has a favourable legal and fiscal regime for exploration and mining, including a relatively simple system for the acquisition of mineral titles and relatively low tax burden, possible future government legislation, policies and controls relating to prospecting, development, production, environmental protection, mining taxes and labour standards could cause additional expense, capital expenditures, restrictions and delays in the activities of the Company, the extent of which cannot be predicted. Before development and production can commence on any properties, the Company must obtain regulatory and environmental approvals. There is no assurance that such approvals can be obtained on a timely basis or at all. The cost of compliance, with changes in governmental regulations, has the potential to reduce the profitability of operations. The Company is currently in compliance with all material regulations applicable to its exploration activities.

Laws and Regulation

The Company's exploration activities are subject to extensive federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations governing prospecting, development, production, exports, taxes, labour standards, occupational health and safety, mine safety and other matters in all the jurisdictions in which it operates. These laws and regulations are subject to change, can become more stringent, and compliance can, therefore, become more costly. The Company applies the expertise of its management, advisors, employees and contractors to ensure compliance with current laws.

COVID-19 Coronavirus Outbreak

The current global uncertainty with respect to the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus (“COVID-19”), the rapidly evolving nature of the pandemic and local and international developments related thereto and its effect on the broader global economy and capital markets may have a negative effect on the Company and its ability to continue exploration activities at its properties. While the precise impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the Company remains unknown, rapid spread of COVID-19 and declaration of the outbreak as a global pandemic has resulted in travel advisories and restrictions, certain restrictions on business operations, social distancing precautions and restrictions on group gatherings which are having direct impacts on businesses in Canada and around the world and could result in travel bans, post-travel quarantines, closure of assay labs, work delays, difficulties for contractors and employees getting to site, and diversion of management attention all of which in turn could have a negative impact on the Company. In particular, the current pandemic spread of the COVID-19 virus and the current review of closing cross-country border crossings and the reduction in available commercial flights between the U.S. and Canada has increased mobility and infrastructure risks for the Company to send its employees to Alaska to conduct exploration work. The Company may need to rely entirely on U.S. contractors to complete the remaining exploration programs and meet minimum exploration expenditures, which may result in higher costs. The spread of COVID-19 may also have a material adverse effect on global economic activity and could result in volatility and disruption to global supply chains and the financial and capital markets, which could affect the business, financial condition, results of operations and other factors relevant to the Company, including its ability to raise additional financing.

Environmental Risks

The Company's exploration and/or development activities are subject to extensive laws and regulations governing environmental protection. The Company is also subject to various reclamation related conditions. Although the Company closely follows and believes it is operating in compliance with all applicable environmental regulations, there can be no assurance that all future requirements will be obtainable on reasonable terms. Failure to comply may result in enforcement actions causing operations to cease or be curtailed and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures. Intense lobbying over environmental concerns by non-governmental organizations has caused some governments to cancel or restrict the development of mining projects. Current publicized concern over climate change may lead to carbon taxes, requirements for carbon offset purchases or new regulation. The costs or likelihood of such potential issues to the Company cannot be estimated at this time.

The legal framework governing this area is constantly developing; therefore the Company is unable to fully ascertain any future liability that may arise from the implementation of any new laws or regulations, although such laws and regulations are typically strict and may impose severe penalties (financial or otherwise). The proposed activities of the Company, as with any exploration, may have an environmental impact, which may result in unbudgeted delays, damage, loss and other costs and obligations including, without limitation, rehabilitation and/or compensation. There is also a risk that the Company's operations and financial position may be adversely affected by the actions of environmental groups or any other group or person opposed in general to the Company's activities and, in particular, the proposed exploration and mining by the Company within the State of Alaska.

Dependence on Management and Key Personnel

The success of the Company is currently largely dependent on the performance of its directors and officers. The loss of the services of any of these persons could have a materially adverse effect on the Company's business and prospects. There is no assurance the Company can maintain the services of its directors, officers or other qualified personnel required to operate its business. As the Company's business activity grows, the Company will require additional key financial, administrative and mining personnel as well as additional operations staff. There can be no assurance that these efforts will be successful in attracting, training and retaining qualified personnel as competition for persons with these skill sets increase. If the Company is not successful in attracting, training and retaining qualified personnel, the efficiency of its operations could be impaired, which could have an adverse impact on the Company's operations and financial condition.

Material Contract Obligations

The agreements pursuant to which the Company acquired its interest in its properties provide that the Company must make a variety of payments in cash and common shares over certain time periods and expend certain minimum amounts on the exploration of its properties. If the Company fails to make such payments or expenditures in a timely fashion, the Company may lose its interest in one or more of the properties.
