On November 4, 2020, the Company completed its Qualifying Transaction, under which West has acquired all right, title and interest in, to and under an option and joint venture agreement (the "Transaction") respecting the Kagoot Brook Property (the "Kagoot Brook Property"). On December 7, 2020 the Company’s common shares began trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the trading symbol “WEST”.

EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS

Qualifying Transaction

On May 11, 2020, the Company entered into a sale, assignment and assumption agreement (the “Assumption Agreement”) with Origen Resources Inc. (“Origen”) in connection with the purchase and assumption by the Company of all of Origen’s right and interest under an option and joint venture agreement (the “Underlying Agreement”) dated May 10, 2018, as amended January 7, 2020, with Great Atlantic Resources Corp. (“Great Atlantic”).

As consideration for the Assumption Agreement, the Company has issued an aggregate of 500,000 common shares to Origen on November 4, 2020, valued at $90,000. Pursuant to the Underlying Agreement, the Company has the right to earn (the "Option") a 75% interest in the Kagoot Brook Property located near Bathhurst, New Brunswick, comprised of one mineral tenure covering 4,233 hectares. To successfully exercise the Option, the optionee is required to: (a) incur a total of $650,000 in exploration expenditures on the Property on or before May 10, 2022; and (b) make aggregate cash payments of $110,000 to Great Atlantic, as follows: $30,000 by May 23, 2020 (paid by Origen); $30,000 by January 23, 2021 (paid); and $50,000 ($28,500 paid) by January 23, 2022.

West Mining Corp. (Formerly Ironwood Capital Corp.) Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the nine months ended July 31, 2021

Once the Option has been exercised, the Kagoot Brook Property will be subject to a 2% NSR royalty in favor of the prospectors, with 1% of such NSR royalty being subject to a repurchase right for $500,000. Upon successful exercise of the Option, the optionee shall have acquired an undivided 75% interest in the Kagoot Brook Property, which interest will be subject to the 75%/25% joint venture formed between the optionee and Great Atlantic. If a joint venture party does not contribute its proportionate share of expenditures on the Property, the non-contributing party's joint venture interest will be reduced proportionately. If Great Atlantic's joint venture interest is reduced to 5% or less, Great Atlantic will be deemed to have withdrawn from the joint venture and its remaining interest will convert into a 3% NSR royalty, with the optionee having the right to repurchase up to 2% of such royalty for $1,000,000 per each 1%.

On November 4, 2020, the Company completed the Transaction, under which the Company has acquired all right, title and interest in, to and under an option and joint venture agreement with respect to the Kagoot Brook Property.

Share Purchase Agreement respecting Nelson Mining District Mineral Exploration Claims

On December 23, 2020, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) with shareholders of Pilgrim Exploration Corp.

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and to maintain a flexible capital structure that optimizes the costs of capital within a framework of acceptable risk. In the management of capital, the Company includes the components of shareholders’ equity as well as cash. The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust its capital structure, the Company may issue new shares, issue debt, acquire or dispose of assets or adjust the amount of cash. The Company is dependent on the capital markets as its primary source of operating working capital and the Company’s capital resources are largely determined by its ability to compete for investor support of its projects.

In March 2020, there was a global pandemic outbreak of COVID-19. The actual and threatened spread of the virus globally has had a material adverse effect on the global economy and specifically, the regional economies in which the Company operates. The pandemic could result in delays in the course of business and could have a negative impact on the stock market, including trading prices of the Company’s shares and its ability to raise new capital. It is not possible for the Company to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on the Company’s business or results of operations at this time. These factors indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Secured Loan bears interest at 6% per year, compounded monthly; and was to be repayable on the earlier of: (a) December 4, 2020; and (b) the date which is 90 days after the date on which the LOI is terminated for any reason other than the execution of the definitive agreement.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, loan receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company designated its cash, loan receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities as amortized cost.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy establishes three levels to classify the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value, by reference to the reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values.

• Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

• Level 2 – techniques (other than quoted prices included in level 1) that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and

• Level 3 – techniques which use inputs which have a significant effect on recorded fair values for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

As at July 31, 2021, the Company believes that the carrying values of cash, loan receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values because of their nature and relatively short maturity dates or durations.

Credit risk

Credit risk arises from cash held with banks and financial institutions. The maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value of the financial assets. The Company’s cash is held with a reputable Canadian bank. The credit risk related to cash is considered minimal.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The risk that the Company will realize such a loss is limited because the Company’s loan receivable has a fixed interest rate.

Liquidity risk

The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash to enable settlement of transactions as they come due. Management monitors the Company’s contractual obligations and other expenses to ensure adequate liquidity is maintained.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

In connection with National Instrument 52-109 (Certificate of Disclosure in Issuer’s Annual and Interim Filings) (“NI 52-109”), the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company have filed a Venture Issuer Basic Certificate with respect to the financial information contained in the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the nine months ended July 31, 2021 and this accompanying MD&A.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

West Mining Corp. (Formerly Ironwood Capital Corp.) Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the nine months ended July 31, 2021

The Company is currently subject to financial and regulatory risks. The financial risk is derived from the uncertainty pertaining to the Company’s ability to raise capital to continue operations. Regulatory risks include the possible delays in getting regulatory approval for the transactions that the Board of Directors believe to be in the best interest of the Company, and include increased fees for filings and the introduction of ever more complex reporting requirements, the cost of which the Company must meet in order to maintain its exchange listing.

There is no assurance that the exploration of the Company’s properties will be successful in its quest to find a commercially viable quantity of mineral resources. The Company's exploration and development activities may be affected by changes in government and the nature of various government regulations relating to the mining industry. The Company cannot predict the government's positions on mining concessions, land tenure, environmental regulation or taxation. A change in government positions on these issues could adversely affect the Company's business and/or its holdings, assets and operations. Any changes in regulations are beyond the control of the Company.
