Management Discussion & Analysis

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

For the three months ended April 30, 2022

COVID-19

During 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. As at the date of this report, the Company has not been significantly impacted by the spread of COVID-19. However, the duration and impact of the pandemic could continue to have a negative impact on the stock market, including trading prices of the Company's shares and its ability to raise new capital. These factors, amongst others, could have a significant impact on the Company's operations going forward.

War in Ukraine

The Company's business financial condition and results of operations may be further negatively affected by economic and other consequences from Russia's military action against Ukraine and the sanctions imposed in response to that action in late February 2022. While the Company expects any direct impacts, of the pandemic and the war in the Ukraine, to the business to be limited, the indirect impacts on the economy and on the mining industry and other industries in general could negatively affect the business.

Mineral properties

Bonneville Property, Quebec

By a mineral property option agreement dated June 18, 2020 and as amended on July 27, 2020, the Company may acquire up to 100% interest in the Bonneville Property. This property consists of 36 mineral tenures and is located in central Quebec. The project covers an area of approximately 2,018 hectares in the Lac Bachelor gold camp 215 kilometres northeast of Val d'Or, Quebec. The property is located within the Abitibi greenstone belt, five km west of the village of Miquelon. Recent exploration at the Bonneville gold project includes soil sampling, ground geophysics and a single diamond drill hole in 2018, which tested one of the three target zones.

As consideration the Company will pay cash of $210,000, and incur $350,000 in exploration expenditures as follows:

  1. Cash payment of $35,000 upon signing (June 18, 2020) (Paid);
  2. Cash payment of $75,000 upon regulatory authorities' approval (June 22, 2020) (Paid);
  3. Cash payment of $75,000 by July 31, 2020 (Paid);
  4. Cash payment of $25,000 by June 18, 2021 (Paid); and
  5. Incur $350,000 in exploration expenditures on or before June 18, 2022.

In the event of a shortfall of exploration expenditures, the Company can pay the Optionor in cash or shares of the Company as long as the share issuance does not make the Optionor a holder of more than 19.9% of the shares outstanding at the time of issuance.

Should the Company acquire 100% of the property the Optionor will retain a 1% Net Smelter Returns ("NSR") royalty. The Company shall be entitled to buy back the 1% NSR for $1,000,000.

The Company is currently renegotiating an extension on the $350,000 exploration expenditure commitment.

Management Discussion & Analysis

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

For the three months ended April 30, 2022

The Company's estimated its budget to be its working capital and believes that the current capital resources are not sufficient to pay overhead expenses for the next twelve months and will need to seek additional funding to fund its overhead expenses and future commitments. The Company will continue to monitor the current economic and financial market conditions and evaluate their impact on the Company's liquidity and future prospects.

Since the Company will not be able to generate cash from its operations in the foreseeable future, the Company will have to rely on the issuance of shares or the exercise of options and warrants to fund ongoing operations and investment. The ability of the Company to raise capital will depend on market conditions and it may not be possible for the Company to issue shares on acceptable terms or at all.

During the three months ended April 30, 2022, the Company issued 570,000 common shares pursuant to the exercise of share purchase warrants for total proceeds of $57,000
