Business  Background  The lithium-ion battery manufacturing supply chain is organized into four industries that operate in series: battery feedstock providers, material refiners, cell manufacturers, and end-use product (electric vehicle, stationary storage, consumer electronics, etc.) manufacturers. While the scale of manufacturing of lithium-ion battery cells and of electric vehicles and other end-use products have grown substantially within the US in recent years, there has been little domestic growth in the battery feedstock and material refining portions of the manufacturing supply chain. This has led to an imbalance within the domestic US supply chain and has caused the majority of cell manufacturing and end-use product manufacturers to rely on foreign supplies of their raw and refined feedstock materials. The situation is so dire that in its “Mineral Commodity Summaries 2020” report, the US Geological Survey calculated that less than 1% of each of the critical and strategic battery metals (lithium, nickel, cobalt, and manganese) produced globally in 2019 were produced within the US.  American Battery Metals Corporation (“ABMC”) is a startup company in the lithium-ion battery industry that is working to increase the domestic US production of these four battery metals through its engagement in the exploration of new primary resources of battery metals, in the development and commercialization of new technologies for the extraction of these battery metals from primary resources, and in the commercialization of an internally developed integrated process for the recycling of lithium-ion batteries for the recovery of battery metals. Through this three-pronged approach ABMC is working to both increase the domestic production of these battery metals, and also to ensure that as these materials reach their end of lives that the constituent elemental battery metals are returned to the manufacturing supply chain in a closed-loop fashion.  Battery Metals Exploration  The Company’s exploration efforts are currently focused on the sampling and characterization of lithium-bearing of brine and claystone sedimentary resources in the Western Nevada Basin (WNB) located in Nye County, Nevada. Through sampling and evaluation of its previous holdings over the past year, the Company has recently down selected from 1,300 claims to the most promising resources and currently holds 647 placer mining claims on over 12,940 acres of land. The Company is performing bench scale characterization and extraction trials to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of extracting elemental lithium from these resources in order to produce battery grade lithium hydroxide, and other high value lithium products, for sale to the battery metals market.  ABMC has been evaluating the expansion of exploration efforts to nickel, cobalt, and manganese rich resources throughout the US and Canada, however, has not yet entered into any formal agreements or contracts.  Battery Metals Extractions  In addition, ABMC has been working in collaboration with several lithium-rich resource owners within the Clayton Valley area of Central Nevada. These resources largely consist of lithium-rich claystone sedimentary deposits, and ABMC has been working with these resource owners in order to receive sample quantities of materials from various drilling locations. Through characterizations and experimentation, ABMC has found that the mechanisms by which lithium is held within these deposits is quite unique, and ABMC has been performing bench scale trials on an internally developed first-of-kind selective leaching process for the low-cost extraction of lithium from these claystone resources. This novel method of enabling a selective leaching of lithium from these claystone sedimentary resources has allowed for significantly lower consumption of acid, lower levels of contaminants in the generated leach liquor, and lower overall costs of production. After reviewing the performance of this novel process and confirming its uniqueness through discussions with third party industry analysts, ABMC is considering preparing and submitting an initial provisional patent application for this technology.  With the material generated during these selective extraction trials, ABMC has performed bench scale separations, purification, and concentration processes to produce a high purity aqueous lithium hydroxide solution followed by crystallization and filtration processes to produce a battery cathode grade lithium hydroxide powder product. ABMC is currently evaluating the composition and morphology of these product materials relative to the required material specifications from high energy density cathode manufacturers in order to determine the technical and economic feasibility of manufacturing lithium hydroxide monohydrate products through this set of technologies with Clayton Valley claystone sedimentary resources as the feedstock.  The remainder of the Company’s extraction efforts have been through using recycled materials as feedstock.  5     Lithium-Ion Battery Recycling  ABMC has developed a universal lithium-ion battery recycling system that is able to recycle batteries of a wide range of form factors (packs, modules, cylindrical cells, prismatic cells, pouch cells, defect and intermediate waste cells, metal scraps, slurries, and powders) and of a wide range of cathode chemistries (lithiated cobalt oxide, lithiated nickel-cobalt-aluminum oxide, lithiated nickel-cobalt-manganese oxide, lithiated nickel-cobalt-manganese-aluminum oxide, lithiated nickel-oxide, and lithiated manganese-oxide) of various relative weighting of transition metals. While there currently has not been a large proliferation of lithium-ion battery recycling facilities in operation globally, the few that are operating generally implement “brute force” methods of processing batteries, by performing bulk high temperature calcinations or bulk acid dissolutions. These upfront processes can be simpler to implement; however, they also make it very difficult to enable high material recovery efficiencies of high value metal products downstream.  ABMC has developed a highly strategic recycling processing train that does not employ any high temperature operations or any bulk chemical treatments of the full battery. Several of the leaders of the ABMC team have previously worked in the design, construction, commissioning, and optimization of one of the largest lithium-ion battery manufacturing factories in the world. Through these experiences they gained a first principles physics-based understanding of every stage of lithium-ion battery cell manufacturing, and more importantly a fundamental understanding of the failure mechanisms that can cause battery components, cells, and modules to fail. Through these fundamental understandings the ABMC team has developed an automated high-speed mechanical separation process, which works to exploit the weaknesses in battery design to essentially “de-manufacture” the modules and cells in a rapid and automated fashion in order to dissect and separate the constituent components. This system is able to feed battery materials, without bulk discharging operations, and separate module materials, cell casings, electrode foils, low density materials, material powders, and wastewater in a matter of minutes without any direct hands-on operator interactions.  After the battery feedstock material is separated and sorted, what remains is a stream that contains rinse water, organic carbonates, dissolved fluorine and phosphorous species, dissolved metals, and is of very high pH due to the leaching of loosely held lithium from the electrodes. While many current facilities lightly treat this water stream in order to meet discharge requirements, the ABMC team has instead developed a 6-part system that is able to treat this water in a targeted fashion, extract contaminants in non-hazardous forms, and purify the water to a higher quality than even the onsite well water. This treated water is then re-used back in the separations process in a closed loop fashion. The avoidance of the discharge of this water, and of the purchasing of makeup water, results in significant levelized cost savings and a dramatically lowered environmental footprint.  While the scrap metal products are sold directly after being separated from the automated disassembly system, the cathode and anode powders are sent for further processing in an internally developed chemical extraction system. This consists of a series of dilute acid dissolution, impurity removal, selective extraction, and purification systems that are able to individually extract lithium, nickel, cobalt, and manganese elemental metals and upgrade them to the battery cathode grade specifications demanded by high energy density cathode manufacturers.  Through the high speed and automated de-manufacturing of a wide variety of battery feedstock materials, and the low cost and high material recovery efficiency chemical extraction train, ABMC is able to successfully extract battery metals from end of life products and manufacturing waste and return them to the lithium-ion battery manufacturing supply chain in an economically sustainable fashion. As a result of their lower environmental footprint, lower total cost of production, and high stability of supply these recycled battery cathode metal feedstocks are highly valuable and sought after by domestic US high energy density cathode manufacturers.  The largest high energy density cathode manufacturing within the US is BASF, and in order to accelerate the commercialization of closed loop lithium-ion battery recycling, they initiated the Circularity Challenge in early 2019. This was a global competition where they challenged companies throughout the world to develop new innovative technologies for the recycling of large format lithium-ion batteries to establish a circular economy in the battery supply chain industries. To winners of the Circularity Challenge, BASF offered seed funding, access to development laboratories, and the exploration of partnership agreements. Over 100 companies throughout the world applied to this challenge throughout 2019, and after several down select and review presentations, in September 2019 BASF selected ABMC as the sole winner of the battery recycling portion of this Circularity Challenge. BASF is one of the largest purchasers of lithium-ion battery metal feedstocks in the US, and through the relationship established through this Circularity Challenge ABMC and BASF have been exploring several avenues of working together to accelerate the commercialization of this lithium-ion battery recycling technology.  6     Company History  The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 6, 2011 for the purpose of acquiring rights to mineral properties with the eventual objective of being a producing mineral company, if and when it ever occurs. We have limited operating history and have not yet generated or realized any revenues from our activities. Our principal executive offices are located at 930 Tahoe Blvd., Suite 802-16, Incline Village, NV 89451.  On August 8, 2016, the Company formed Lithortech Resources Inc. as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company to serve as its operating subsidiary for lithium resource exploration and development. On June 29, 2018, the Company changed the name of Lithortech Resources to LithiumOre Corp. (“LithiumOre”). On May 3, 2019, the Company changed its name to American Battery Metals Corporation.  The growth in demand for lithium-ion batteries is predicted by industry researchers to grow by over ten-fold over the next ten years, while over the same period there are limited announcements for new production sources of domestic US based lithium, nickel, cobalt, or manganese. As a result, there will be increased pressure on the prices of domestically sourced battery metals, and increased reliance on foreign sourced battery metals. These industry trends support and validate the Company’s multifaceted three-pronged business model to increase the production of domestic US sourced battery metals. The Company is currently a pre-revenue organization and we do not anticipate earning revenues until such time as we have initial operations of our lithium-ion battery recycling facility underway, or until we have undertaken sufficient exploration work to identify lithium and or other battery metals reserves and have validated and commercialized a cost effective extraction system.  Market and Industry  Lithium is extracted from primarily two sources: hard rock spodumene and pegmatite crystals, and dissolved lithium salts from brine pools. Currently, the world’s top producers of Lithium are located in Australia, Chile, Argentina, and China.  In 2019, worldwide Lithium production totaled approximately 77,000 metric tons, with the top 4 countries (Australia, Chile, China, Argentina) contributing roughly 95% of the global production. Most of the world’s lithium supply is produced by five companies: Albemarle Corporation, FMC Corporation/Livent, Chile’s Sociedad Quimica Y Minera de Chile (SQM), Ganfeng Lithium, and Tianqi Lithium. Albemarle, FMC, and SQM have traditionally been considered the “Big 3” of global lithium producers. FMC Corporation spun off its lithium production to Livent in 2018.  In 2019, the market share of the “Big 3” companies decreased from 85% to 53%, with the Chinese companies attaining 40% market share.  Much of the current production of Lithium in Australia is derived from conventional mining techniques of ancient Precambrian rocks containing Lithium ore which is crushed and fed into capital intensive processing plants which upgrade the lithium mineral using gravity, flotation, magnetic and roasting purification processes.  Alternatively, Lithium production from Chile and Argentina uses a much less capital intense extraction method. Lithium is located beneath various salt flats. The Lithium is leached from nearby source rocks and becomes concentrated in salty brines just under the surface. The Lithium enriched brines are then pumped up to settle in multiple shallow surface evaporation pools which produces a thicker Lithium rich liquid. That liquid is treated with sodium carbonate, which creates lithium carbonate.  The Lithium market has typically been dominated by the ceramic and medical sectors, however recently the demand for Lithium for the battery markets- to fuel electric vehicles and energy storage applications- outstripped any other sector.  The primary lithium-ion battery manufacturers by capacity are: CATL, BYD, Tesla, Panasonic of Japan, and LG Chem of South Korea.  Lithium is not currently traded on any commodity exchanges, but rather is usually distributed in a chemical form such as lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) and sold directly to end users for a negotiated price per ton of lithium carbonate.  General Market Analysis  Lithium-ion batteries have become the rechargeable battery of choice in cell phones, computers, electric cars and now larger scale electric storage. The growth in demand for lithium batteries is predicted to far outpace lithium production in the coming decade; in particular, Lithium-ion batteries for the automotive industry is expected to continue to drive demand beyond supply.  7     Recently, Japan and South Korea have both recorded high levels of Lithium-ion battery exports as auto companies’ ramp up battery consumption to power all-electric vehicle sales. China has the most electric vehicles on the road, but both European and North American auto manufacturers are committed to significantly increasing EV sales by 2025. In November 2019, Ford unveiled its long awaited fully electric Mustang-styled SUV.  According to Goldman Sachs, 25% of cars sold will have electric engines by 2025, up from 5% today. Just a 1% increase of Electric Vehicles hitting the market could increase lithium demand by roughly half of the current production of lithium today.  Tesla’s mile long Gigafactory started producing powerful Lithium-ion batteries in January 2017 with its partner Panasonic. The Gigafactory will supply batteries for the 500,000 cars Tesla hopes to produce by the end of the decade, as well as to power homes. Also, Chrysler, Dodge, Ford, GM, BMW, Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Saturn, Tesla and Toyota have all announced plans to build lithium-ion battery powered cars. After Tesla released the Model 3 in July 2017, there have been over 500,000 reservations for the vehicle and production is starting 2 years ahead of schedule. Elon Musk has stated that Tesla will have to acquire the entire lithium market to meet the current demands. Thus, the global lithium market is approaching shortages, which has made it a useful commodity and mineral explorers have launched efforts to locate and bring new suppliers to the marketplace.  Lithium brine exploration and development has proven to be much more cost effective and faster to be put into production than the hard rock mine counterparts. Lithium brine deposits are considered placer deposits and are easier to gain mining permits for. Brine is also a liquid which means that drilling to find it is more akin to drilling for water or oil. It’s also typically located relatively close to surface, which limits the depth of required drilling. Once lithium brine is found, the reserve data is more straightforward to understand and quantify.  As the brines are found in large flat areas, the construction of numerous flat evaporation pools or direct solvent extraction can be achieved at relatively low cost. Environmental impact is minimized as the excess residual brines can be pumped back into the salt flats.  In Summary:  Historically, lithium demand came from industrial sectors manufacturing greases, glass, and ceramics. The processing of lithium for industrial applications requires lower specification products.  The introduction of the lithium-ion battery for consumer electronics, EV, and energy storage applications changed the demand dynamic; the batteries for e-mobility and energy storage now dominate current and future demand for lithium. Electric vehicles will continue to require vast amounts of lithium with higher grade and purities.  Electric Vehicle OEM are increasingly quality-conscious and develop close relationships to the modern “megafactories” that supply them with battery cells. In order to consistently supply the desired high nickel cathodes, megafactories need high purity raw materials - particularly lithium - to create low impurity lithium hydroxide.  In the United States, there are not currently enough chemical producers in operation to meet existing or future standards; battery grade hydroxide production is quite small as compared to the whole lithium supply chain. To meet market demand, this segment must quickly grow in the short term, at an estimated rate of 35-40% between now and 2025.  In 2019, explanations for the drop in the price of lithium were erroneously attributed to the “oversupply myth.” The reality is that there is not “too much lithium” in production but rather that there is not enough battery grade lithium hydroxide to meet market demand to fuel the explosive projections for Electric Vehicles.  Existing producers know that aside from handling and limited shelf life, consistently producing battery grade hydroxide within "spec,” while meeting the qualification challenges going forward will require significantly more high-grade lithium products. This will require new resources of raw materials, which demands investment in new exploration and mining projects.  Competition  We compete with other mining/exploration and battery recycling companies, many of which possess greater financial resources and technical facilities than we do, in connection with the acquisition of suitable exploration properties, building and operating process plants and in connection with the engagement of qualified personnel. The lithium exploration/mining and battery recycling industries are fragmented, and we are a very small participant in these sectors. Many of our competitors have been in business longer than we have and have established more strategic partnerships and relationships and have greater financial accessibility than we have.  8     While we compete with other exploration companies in acquiring suitable properties, we believe that there would be readily available purchasers of lithium and other precious metals if they were to be produced from any of our leased properties. The price of precious metals can be affected by a number of factors beyond our control, including:  ·fluctuations in the market prices for lithium; ·fluctuating supplies of lithium; ·fluctuating demand for lithium; and ·mining activities of others.  If lithium mineralization that is determined to be of economic grade and in sufficient quantity to justify production were located, additional capital would be required to develop, mine and sell our production.  Covid-19Impact  In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. As COVID-19 continues to spread throughout the world, the ongoing global pandemic continues to prompt governments and businesses to maintain and, in some cases, extend unprecedented measures in response. Such measures have included federal, state, county and local governments, and public health organizations and authorities around the world implementing a variety of measures intended to control the spread of the virus, including quarantines, “stay-at-home” orders, travel restrictions, school closures, business limitations and closures, social distancing and hygiene requirements. The COVID-19 pandemic has also disrupted global supply chains and workforce participation and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. A prolonged economic downturn and adverse impact to global economies or a sustained slowdown in growth or demand could have an adverse effect on commodity prices and/or our ability to raise financing to meet our ongoing obligations. The full extent to which COVID-19 impacts the Company will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning COVID-19 and the actions required to contain or treat its impact, among others.  Item 1A. Risk Factors  Not required.  Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments  Not applicable.  Item 2. Properties  We operate within the U.S.A, with our principal executive offices located in Incline Village, Nevada, our corporate offices located in Moraga, California, our battery metal extraction and lithium-ion battery recycling technologies laboratories located in Virginia City, Nevada and Greentown, Massachusetts, our mining claims located in the Western Nevada Basin, our farm and water rights located in Currant, Nevada and our undeveloped industrial land in Fernley, Nevada.  We believe that all our property and facilities are generally well maintained, effectively used and are adequate to operate our business.  Set forth below is information regarding significant properties operated by us:  UndevelopedIndustrialLand–Fernley,NV  On July 29, 2020, the Company entered into escrow to purchase approximately 12 1⁄2 acres of industrial land in Fernley, Nevada in a Qualified Opportunity Zone (QOZ). The Company intends to construct a commercial pilot plant of its first-of-its-kind lithium-ion battery recycling facility on this land. The Company intends to invest approximately $15 million between Q3 2020 and Q1 2021 in order to construct and commission the first portion of this facility. This first portion will consist of approximately 30,000 sq. ft. of industrial processing space, as well as laboratory and office space. Once this first portion is operational, the Company estimates that this battery recycling facility will be operating in a financially self-sufficient manner as it sells scrap metal and high value metal filter cake products.  Subsequently, between Q2 2021 and the end of Q4 2021 the Company intends to invest an additional approximately $20 million in order to install value-add operations to this recycling facility in order to further increase operating margins. These value-add operations will allow for the manufacturing of battery cathode grade metal products (lithium hydroxide, nickel sulfate, cobalt sulfate, manganese sulfate) in addition to the sale of scrap metals.  9     LaboratoryFacilities  The Company operates out of two laboratory facilities for the research and development of its battery metal extraction and lithium-ion battery recycling technologies.  Greentown Labs, Somerville, MA  The Company occupies wet chemistry laboratory space, free of charge, from Greentown Labs, which is the largest clean technology incubator in North America. Besides desk and lab space, the Company also has access to more than $1 million worth of resources, equipment, programming, and staff support. The Company was afforded this opportunity by winning the Greentown Labs Circularity Challenge, an accelerator program for start-ups developed in partnership with BASF, one of the world's leading chemical companies. The program intends to advance innovative ideas to disrupt the plastics, energy storage and recycling value chains to enable a circular economy. The Company is utilizing Greentown Labs to advance their metal extraction techniques and lithium-ion battery recycling technologies.  Virginia City, NV Laboratory  The Company leases a laboratory from Comstock Mining, Inc. The laboratory is utilized for metal extraction experiments and for the testing of soil samples. The cost of the month-to-month lease is $2,500 a month.  MiningClaims  LithiumOre, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, currently has 647 placer mining claims on over 12,940 acres in the area known as the Western Nevada Basin, situated in Railroad Valley in Nye County, Nevada. We do not currently have any partnership agreements or royalty agreements in connection with such claims.  We also own a 120-acre parcel of private property with water rights, in the town of Currant, NV near Railroad Valley, which we acquired for exploratory purposes and was fully impaired in prior years. It will act as a base for such operations of the Company.  We lease from the Bureau of Land Management our Western Nevada Basin Claims where we are exploring and drilling for possible lithium-rich brine.  The Western Nevada Basin (WNB) Claims are located in east central Nye County, Nevada (Figure 1) approximately 93 miles northeast of the county seat of Tonopah, NV, the major commercial center for the region; 56 miles southwest of the town of Ely, NV and 120 miles northeast of Silver Peak NV, the only currently operating lithium producer in the State.  image2.jpeg  10     Figure 1. Location Map. The Western Nevada Basin Claim is located within the central portion of the Railroad Valley, approximately 169 miles north-northwest of Las Vegas, NV and 234 miles east-southeast of Reno, NV.  Picture 1  Figure 2. The Western Nevada Basin Mining Property covers 12,940 acres. It consists of a total six hundred and forty-seven (647) placer claims. Each claim covers approximately 20 acres and was laid out by aliquot parts as required by the Bureau of Land Management.  Lithium is a locatable mineral according to the Code of Federal Regulations. Rights to lithium are to be held by lode claims where it occurs in bedrock and by placer claims where it occurs in sediments and brines.A body of legal precedents set during the original development of lithium brines in the area provides that lithium in valley sediments by nature of the unconsolidated host rock are staked by and produced from placer claims.  In Nevada the claim staking procedure requires recording documents with both the county Recorder’s Office and the state BLM office. Claims must be held by posts at the claims four corners and a Notice of Location which describe the claims legal description of location and owner. The claims are required to be recorded at the county courthouse within the proper jurisdiction within 90 days from the staking date.  Placer claims on Federal lands are held to a September 1 to August 31 assessment year when Intent to Hold or Proof of labor documents need to be filed with the county for the annual assessment work. The pertinent documents are filed with the Nye County Recorder’s Office.  The current annual maintenance fee is $165 per 20-acre (or a portion thereof) placer claim (http://www.blm.gov/ca/st/en/info/iac/miningfacts.html). Payment of those fees allows the claim to stay on the BLM active database. Non-payment results in the claims moving to ‘closed’ status.  Before August 31st of each year, a payment of $165 per claim is made to the BLM to hold the claims in good standing for the following assessment year. The total BLM cost for the 2020 assessment year for the 647 WNB Claims was $106,755. These fees were also paid in 2018 and 2019 in order to maintain the current mining claims.  In 2020 the total number of placer mining claims were reduced from 1,300 to 647. The decision to reduce the current mining claim holdings was based on detailed geologic and geophysical interpretations of field studies conducted on the WNB Claims over several months in 2019 and 2020. In order to increase shareholder value “on a claim by claim basis”; only the most prospective claims were maintained while interpreted potential unproductive claims were effectively dropped in order to save exploration funds.  11     When fees are paid a claim is deemed ‘active’. Active and approved claim fees are also due to the County before November 1st of each year. A payment to Nye County, NV, of $12 per claim to file an affidavit of assessment fees paid and notice of intent to hold the claims into the next assessment year. The total Nye County holding cost for the current 647 WNB claims is $7,774 and will be paid before November 1, 2020. Payments to the County are current as of October 31, 2019.  As public lands, there is right of free access and both surface and mineral rights are held by the Federal government. Public records (Bureau of Land Management) show no military withdrawals or Areas of Critical Environmental Concern. The Railroad Valley Wildlife Management Area is located to the west of the WNB claim boundary and has no effect on any planned work on the WNB claim area.  To the Company’s knowledge, there are no known environmental liabilities to which the property is subject or other significant factors and risks that may access, title, or the right or ability to perform work on the property. The NOI permit for the drilling site was approved on July 13, 2018.  Accessibility  The main route of access to the WNB project is Nevada State U.S. Route 6 which provides all year access to Railroad Valley and the project area. U.S. Route 6 provides direct access to the two nearby commercial centers; Tonopah, located southwest of the project at the junction of Routes 6 and 95, approximately 90 minutes away, and Ely, a slightly larger commercial center with a population of over 4,200 approximately, located northeast of the project approximately 60 minutes away. US Highway 95 is the main highway linking Las Vegas and Reno, the two largest metropolitan areas in Nevada.  Climate  Railroad Valley is in the rain shadow of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. The region is arid to almost semiarid. Winters are cold while summers are hot. Average annual precipitation is approximately 5 inches; however, variations occur at differing altitudes. Exploration can be conducted in the spring, summer, and fall seasons.  Local Resources  Railroad Valley contains several small communities which include Currant, Crow’s Nest, Green Springs, Locke’s, and Nyala. Electrical power is available within the valley area.  The larger population centers of Ely and Tonopah are connected via U.S. Route 6 to the project area. Tonopah has a population of approximately 2,500 and is the governmental center for the region. Ely has a population of approximately 4,200 and is the closest commercial center. Groceries, hardware, a bank and a choice of motels and restaurants are available in both Ely and Tonopah.  The area has a long history of mining. Mining personnel can be sourced mostly from the larger towns of Tonopah or Ely.  Infrastructure  A reasonable network of 4x4, graded and paved roads connects the claim area to the rest of Nevada. Electrical power is available at several sites throughout the valley and could easily provide power to any operation at the project area. The nearest rail and large commercial airline service are in Las Vegas, NV approximately 169 miles to the south.  Physiography  Railroad Valley is one of the longest topographically closed drainage basins in Nevada, extending more than 110 miles in a north-south direction and up to 20 miles wide. This valley is one of the Central Nevada Desert Basins in the Tonopah Basin. The southern end of the valley begins near Gray Top Mountain (7,036 feet) and stretches north all the way to Mount Hamilton (10,745 feet). The mountain masses are dominated by the White Pine, Grant and Quinn Canyon ranges east of the valley.  Railroad Valley comprises an area of approximately 2,750 square miles. Two large flat areas occur within the valley. The claims are located on the large Northern flat area of the valley floor at elevations generally of 4400 – 4700 feet. The valley floor is characterized by subdued topography with washes eroding into slightly older valley-fill sediments.  The claims are located on flat areas where vegetation is scarce. There is sufficient surface area for recovery and processing facilities within the Claims.  12     Geologic Setting  The claims are located in the Basin and Range physiographic province which stretches from southern Oregon and Idaho to Mexico. It is characterized by extreme elevation changes between mountains and flat intermountain valleys or basins.  Plate tectonics powered by crustal spreading broadly generates two types of forces: compression as plates are moved together and extension as those forces relax. Compression was the dominant geologic force affecting the western United States beginning about 200 million years ago as the Pacific Ocean plate moved eastward under the North American continental plate. Those forces compressed the overlying pile of sedimentary rocks accumulated over hundreds of millions of years into a thick stack reaching up to elevations of 14,000 feet, similar to the altiplano of Mexico and South America which formed at the same time from similar forces. That highland plateau stretched west – east from the Sierra Nevada Mountains in California to the Wasatch Range in Utah.  Extension became the dominant force beginning in the Eocene - Oligocene epochs approximately 55 to 25 million years ago. Also, the relative movement of the tectonic plates changed about 30 million years ago with the movement becoming more oblique to the continent. This relaxed the compressional forces and also tended to ‘tear’ the crust apart, creating diagonal extensions.  The resulting compressional and extensional tectonics have created throughout Nevada a classical Basin and Range province consisting of narrow, N- to NE-trending, fault block mountain chains separated by flat linear valleys. This geological pattern is repeated across the State and has created a number of currently arid, ‘trapped’ or closed basins with respect to drainage that have the potential of containing lithium brine deposits.  Geology of Lithium Brines  Lithium brine deposits are accumulations of saline groundwater that are enriched in dissolved lithium. All producing lithium brine deposits share a number of first-order characteristics:  ·arid climate; ·closed basin containing a salt flat (also known as a Playa or Salar); ·tectonically driven subsidence; ·associated igneous or geothermal activity; ·suitable lithium source-rocks; ·one or more adequate aquifers; and ·sufficient time to concentrate a brine.  The single most important factor determining if a nonmarine basin can accumulate lithium brine is whether or not the basin is closed.  Lithium enriched brines are formed by complex processes that include evaporation, re-mobilization, salt and lithium clay dissolution and precipitation. In essence, lithium is liberated through weathering or derived from hydrothermal fluids from a variety of rock sources within a closed basin where lithium, a lightweight element, cannot escape.  Lithium is highly soluble and, unlike sodium (Na), potassium (K), or calcium (Ca), does not readily produce evaporite minerals when concentrated by evaporation. Instead it ends up in residual brines in the shallow subsurface. Economic brines have Li concentrations in the range of 200 to 4,000 milligrams per liter (mg/l). 1 mg/l = 1 ppm.  Clayton Valley contains the only currently producing lithium brine project in Nevada. Production has been on-going since 1967. The production at Clayton Valley is located approximately 120 miles west of Railroad Valley. Evidence from Clayton Valley suggests that felsic vitric tuffs are a particularly favorable primary source of lithium as well, uplifted Neogene lake beds from earlier in the basin’s history, which have been altered to hectorite, may provide a source of lithium.  Geology of Railroad Valley  Railroad Valley has produced about 44 million barrels of oil (MMBO) from nine petroleum fields and has been extensively studied to determine relations between structure and oil production. Several interpretations of basin configuration have evolved, based on improved seismic acquisition and processing and better understanding of deformation styles and kinetics.  13     Oil was first discovered at Railroad Valley by Shell Oil in 1954. Their first discovery well reached a depth of 10,360 feet and it was determined that there were commercial oil reserves at intervals between 6,450 and 6,730 feet. The valley area is essentially wedge shaped with the wedge increasing in thickness from west to east. A low-angle attenuation fault has been reported to underlie Railroad Valley which has been interpreted to be a result of asymmetric arching rather than a series of down-to-the-west high-angle normal faults.  The stratigraphy of the valley is known to contain Paleozoic platform carbonate rocks, Tertiary volcanic rocks, and Tertiary lacustrine sediments. In comparison to Clayton Valley, Railroad Valley has a large endowment of Neogene volcanic flows and tophaceous rocks.  Oil exploration has reported several laterally continuous thick lithium brine horizons throughout Railroad Valley. Testing for lithium from the brines was not conducted by the oil industry. Good reservoir rocks for oil may not represent good reservoir hosts for lithium. The underlying brine-waters of the Railroad Valley were at one time examined as a potential reservoir for Las Vegas.  Volcanic rocks form a large part of the Neogene rock sequence: ash-flow tuffs and basalt flows from major calderas in eastern and central Nevada. Thickness of the volcanic section can vary greatly because of Neogene erosion and faulting. The thickness of ash flow tuffs in Railroad Valley can range from less than 1,000 ft to more than 3,000 ft. These rocks have shown good porosity and may represent an enormous source for lithium.  Tertiary lacustrine formations consist of varying proportions of fresh-water carbonate, shale, sandstone, and volcanic debris. To date, oil production from Tertiary lacustrine reservoirs is limited, but there is production from the Sheep Pass Formation in the Eagle Springs field, and formerly there was production from Currant field; both in Railroad Valley.  The northern Playa area of Railroad Valley contained a large lake during the Pleistocene Epoch, more than 7,000 years ago. The lake has subsequently evaporated within the valley; however, at one point it reportedly covered an area of over 525 square miles and attained a maximum depth of 315 feet. The large Railroad Valley north playa today is partly covered by young erosional alluvium.  Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves  The Railroad Valley has demonstrated enrichment in lithium in the nearby dry sediments as evidenced from the NURE sample database from the U.S. Geological Survey. However, the project is at an exploration stage. There are no lithium brine mineral resources or reserves for the property.  Exploration and Development  Exploration and Development would consist of direct sampling and analysis of lithium both laterally and vertically across the project area from both volcanic horizons and underground brines contained within the Playa. Drilling and mobilization represent the largest costs of the program. Every effort would be made to minimize costs and maximize the sampling of brine from either re-entry and perforation of ‘shut-in’ oil wells or testing of current water wells in the project area.  Future Exploration and Development  The Company believes there is value in their WNB claims and will continue to evaluate those claims. However, resources are limited, and the Company’s primary focus is on the development of its battery recycling facility in Fernley, NV.  Item 3. Legal Proceedings  In January 2018, the Company filed a complaint in Nevada seeking the return or cancellation of 16 million common shares which the Company believes were fraudulently issued as well as claims against the former CEO of the Company, Craig Alford. As a result, the Company entered into agreements to cancel eleven million shares (of which ten million shares have already been cancelled). The remaining five million shares were cancelled and reissued after the Company determined that the recipients provided proper consideration for such shares. Alford has filed a counterclaim against the Company for amounts allegedly owed to him that the Company believes is entirely without merit. The litigation continues against Alford and certain other relief defendants but has been delayed due to Covid -19 restrictions.  Other than the preceding, to the best of our knowledge, we are not currently a party to any legal proceedings that, individually or in the aggregate, are deemed to be material to our financial condition or results of operations.  14     We are required by Section 78.090 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the "NRS") to maintain a registered agent in the State of Nevada. Our registered agent for this purpose is United Corporate Services, Inc., 2520 St Rose Pkwy Suite 319, Henderson, NV 89074. All legal process and any demand or notice authorized by law to be served upon us may be served upon our registered agent in the State of Nevada in the manner provided in NRS 14.020(2).  Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures  Not applicable.  PART II  Item 5. Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters  Market Information  Our shares of common stock are eligible for quotation on “OTCQB” operated by the OTC Markets Groupunder the symbol “ABML.” Quotations for our securities represent inter-dealer prices, without retail markups, markdowns or commissions and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.  On September 22, 2020, the closing price of our Common Stock as reported by the OTC Markets Group was $0.10089 per share.  Holders  As of September 21, 2020, we have approximately 114 shareholders including our directors and officers. One such holder is Cede & Co., a nominee for Depository Trust Company, or DTC. Shares of common stock that are held by financial institutions as nominees for beneficial owners are deposited into participant accounts at DTC and are considered to be held of record by Cede & Co. as one stockholder.  Dividends  We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to support our operations and finance the growth and development of our business. We do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. Any future determination related to dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors. The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, prohibits us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:  ·we would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or  ·our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of stockholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution, unless otherwise permitted under our Articles of Incorporation.  Stock Options, Warrants and Rights  As at June 30, 2020, ABMC has potentially issuable shares of common stock as follows:  ·8,603,112 potentially issuable shares of common stock from share purchase warrants issued with an exercise price that ranges from $0.10 to $0.50 per share; and  ·In addition, the Company had an indeterminable number of shares issuable based on $2,251,200 in principal amount of outstanding in convertible notes which have a conversion price based on a discount to the market price of the Company’s stock prior to conversion.  15     Penny Stock  Our common stock is subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act and Rule 15g-9 thereunder, commonly referred to as the “penny stock rule”. Section 15(g) sets forth certain requirements for transactions in penny stock, and Rule 15g-9(d) incorporates the definition of “penny stock” that is found in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act. The SEC generally defines a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price less than US$5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. We are subject to the SEC’s penny stock rules. Since our common stock is deemed to be penny stock, trading in the shares of our common stock is subject to additional sales practice requirements on broker dealers who sell penny stock to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. “Accredited investors” are generally persons with assets in excess of US$1,000,000 or annual income exceeding US$200,000 or US$300,000 together with their spouse. For transactions covered by these rules, broker dealers must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of securities and must have the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the first transaction, of a risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. A broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for penny stocks held in an account and information to the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, these rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealer to trade and/or maintain a market in our common stock and may affect the ability of our stockholders to sell their shares.  Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans  As of the date of this Report, we do not have any compensation plans under which our equity securities are authorized for issuance. We intend to adopt an equity compensation plan in which our directors, officers, employees and consultants will be eligible to participate. However, no formal steps have yet been taken to adopt such a plan.

Operating Expenses and Net Loss  During the nine months ended June 30, 2020, the Company incurred operating expenses of $4,387,169 compared to $10,486,623 during the twelve months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in operating expenses is due to a decrease in exploration costs of $744,379 relating to the Company lessening work on the Nye County property, a decrease of $5,780,093 of management and consulting fees which includes stock-based compensation costs from prior year, a decrease of $524,980 for general and administrative expenses as the Company had less operating activity in the current year compared to the prior year, and $245,820 decrease in legal fees due to lower stock-based compensation relating to legal fees that were paid in the prior year. The decreases were offset by an increase of $1,195,818 of payroll costs for employees of the Company as the Company had more day-to-day operations.  The Company incurred a net loss of $13,318,408 for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 compared to a net loss of $12,625,204 for the twelve months ended September 30, 2019. In addition to operating expenses, the Company incurred interest and accretion expense of $4,391,184 during the nine months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $2,491,621 for the twelve months ended September 30, 2019. The increase is due to the fact that the Company entered into more convertible notes during the current year which resulted in more interest expense and a larger accretion amount given that the majority of the convertible notes had variable conversion rates at a discount to the market price that resulted in the recognition of derivative liabilities. The Company also recorded a loss of $5,863,127 for the change in the fair value of derivative liabilities compared to $218,922 for the twelve months ended September 30, 2019 due in part to more volatility in the Company’s share price during the year which resulted in a larger spread between conversion prices and market prices which created higher derivative liabilities.  Finally, the Company recorded a gain on the settlement of debt of $1,319,326 and $571,962 during the nine months ended June 30, 2020 and twelve months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, due to increased conversion and settlement of outstanding convertible notes payable during 2020, due in part to a large derivative liability balance which would reverse upon full conversion of the notes.  18     The Company incurred a net loss of $13,318,408, or $0.05 loss per share, during the nine months ended June 30, 2020 compared to a net loss of $12,625,204, or $0.11 loss per share, during the twelve months ended September 30, 2019.  Liquidity and Capital Resources  As of June 30, 2020, the Company had cash of $829,924 and total assets of $1,161,314 compared to cash of $7,371 and total assets of $92,694 as at September 30, 2019. The increase in cash and total assets was mainly due to the fact that the Company received additional financing from issuance of convertible debts, private placements and bank loans.  As of June 30, 2020, the Company had total liabilities of $6,101,818 compared to total liabilities of $4,880,156 as at September 30, 2019. The increase in total liabilities is due to an increase in the derivative liabilities of $1,082,454 due to an increase in the number of convertible notes outstanding during the current year and the fact that the majority of the convertible notes in fiscal 2020 had variable conversion rates. The increase was offset by a decrease in the carrying value of convertible notes payable of $272,283 due in part to a greater number of convertible notes being entered into near the end of the fiscal year which resulted in a full discount of the carrying value due to the fair value of the derivative liability at the onset of the convertible note. As at June 30, 2020, the Company had total face value of convertible debentures of $2,211,200 compared to total face value of convertible notes of $3,643,259 at September 30, 2019. In addition, the Company had a decrease of $70,959 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities offset by an increase of $166,680 in amounts due to related parties which are related to management fees incurred to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Moreover, the Company had an increase of $315,228 in loans payable due from a finance loan agreement relating to the acquisition of a company vehicle and another $255,992 from the U.S. Small Business Administration as part of the Paycheck Protection Program.  As of June 30, 2020, the Company had a working capital deficit of $4,727,912 compared to a working capital deficit of $4,822,170 as at September 30, 2019. The decrease in the working capital deficit is mainly due to the additional financing received from convertible debentures, private placement, bank loan and increase in prepaid expenses.  During the nine months ended June 30, 2020, the Company issued 24,111,031 common shares with a fair value of $1,072,378 for services and 193,014,921 common shares with a fair value of $9,313,911 for the conversion of outstanding convertible notes payable. In addition, the Company issued 3,750,000 common shares for proceeds of $150,000 as part of a private placement of units, 9,924,304 common shares for the exercise of cashless warrants, and 1,712,824 common shares due to cancellation of share purchase warrants.  As at June 30, 2020, the Company received $2,450,000 relating to share subscriptions received relating to private placement units at $0.04 per unit. The units were issued subsequent to June 30, 2020.  Cashflows from Operating Activities  During the nine months ended June 30, 2020, the Company used $3,018,519 of cash for operating activities compared to $3,233,467 of cash for operating activities during the twelve months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in the use of cash for operating activities was due to significantly less costs incurred during the nine-month period from day-to-day operation and the change in year-end, which results in a shorter period than the comparative period.  Cashflows from Investing Activities  During the nine months ended June 30, 2020, the Company used cash of $3,896 for acquisition of equipment compared to use of $nil for investing activities during the twelve months ended September 30, 2019.  Cashflows from Financing Activities  During the nine months ended June 30, 2020, the Company received $3,844,968 of proceeds from financing activities which included $2,522,250 of cash from issuance of notes payable less repayment of $1,533,274, $2,600,000 of proceeds from private placements during the period, and $255,992 of proceeds from bank loan. Comparatively, during the twelve months ended September 30, 2019, the Company received proceeds of $3,118,069 from financing activities from notes payable including $4,601,900 from issuance of convertible notes payable less repayment of $1,483,831.  Going Concern  We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive acquisitions and activities. For these reasons, our auditors stated in their report on our audited financial statements that they have substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern without further financing.  19     Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements  We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.  Future Financings  We will continue to rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of the equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund planned acquisitions and exploration activities.  Critical Accounting Policies  Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. A complete summary of these policies is included in the notes to our financial statements. In general, management's estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.  Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements  The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

AMERICAN BATTERY METALS CORPORATION  Consolidated Financial Statements  For the nine months ended June 30, 2020 and twelve months ended September 30, 2019  Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting FirmF-1Consolidated Balance SheetsF-2Consolidated Statements of OperationsF-3Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ DeficitF-4Consolidated Statements of Cash FlowsF-6Notes to the Consolidated Financial StatementsF-7  21    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM  To The Board of Directors and Stockholders of American Battery Metals Corporation  Opinion on the Financial Statements  We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of American Battery Metals Corporation (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 and the twelve months ended September 30, 2019 (collectively referred to as the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  Consideration of the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern  The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has not generated sufficient cash flows from operations to fund its business operations. This factor, among others, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to this matter are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  Basis for Opinion  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.  We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.   /s/PinnacleAccountancyGroupofUtah  We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2016.

(“the Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada on October 6, 2011 for the purpose of acquiring and developing mineral properties. The Company has a wholly owned subsidiary called Oroplata Exploraciones E Ingenieria SRL, which was incorporated in the Dominican Republic on January 10, 2012. On July 26, 2016, the Company incorporated LithiumOre Corporation (formerly Lithortech Resources Inc.), a Nevada company, as a wholly owned subsidiary. On July 5, 2019, the Company incorporated ABMC AG, LLC, a Nevada company, as a wholly owned subsidiary. The Company currently holds mineral rights in the Western Nevada Basin of Nye County in the state of Nevada. In July 2020, management changed its year end date from September 30th to June 30th, and these consolidated financial statements reflect the nine-month period ended June 30, 2020 and the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2019.  On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak and any related adverse public health developments, has adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, leading to an economic downturn. The impact on the Company is not currently determinable, but management continues to monitor the situation.  GoingConcern  These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As at June 30, 2020, the Company has not earned revenue, has a working capital deficit of $4,727,912, and an accumulated deficit of $63,208,946. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its management, and its ability to identify future investment opportunities and obtain the necessary debt or equity financing and generating profitable operations from the Company’s future operations. If the Company is able to obtain financing, there is no certainty that terms will be favorable to the Company. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.  2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies  (a) Basis of Presentation  The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company’s fiscal year end is June 30, which has been amended from September 30.  These consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are expressed in U.S. dollars. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Oroplata Exploraciones E Ingenieria SRL and LithiumOre Corporation (formerly Lithortech Resources Inc) and ABMC AG, LLC. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.  (b) Use of Estimates  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the fair value of stock-based compensation, recoverability of long-lived assets, valuation of derivative liability, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances.  The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.  F-7    AMERICAN BATTERY METALS CORPORATION Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the nine months ended June 30, 2020 and twelve months ended September 30, 2019  2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)  (c) Cash and Cash Equivalents  The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2020, and September 30, 2019, there were no cash equivalents.  (d) Long-Lived Assets  Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, mineral properties, and purchased intangibles with finite lives (subject to amortization), are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable in accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment and ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life. The Company’s long-lived assets consist of vehicles, which is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 6 years.  Recoverability of assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by an asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. The estimated fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. Any impairment in value is recognized as an expense in the period when the impairment occurs.  (e) Asset Retirement Obligations  The Company follows the provisions of ASC 410, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations, which establishes standards for the initial measurement and subsequent accounting for obligations associated with the sale, abandonment or other disposal of long-lived tangible assets arising from the acquisition, construction or development and for normal operations of such assets.  (f) Loss per Share  The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. At June 30, 2020, the Company has 8,603,112 (September 30, 2019 – 20,094,150) potentially dilutive shares.  (g) Foreign Currency Translation  The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian dollars. Foreign currency transactions are translated to United States dollars in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Translation Matters, using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date.  Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income.  F-8    AMERICAN BATTERY METALS CORPORATION Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the nine months ended June 30, 2020 and twelve months ended September 30, 2019  2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies(continued)  (h) Comprehensive Loss  ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As at June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, the Company has no items representing comprehensive income or loss.  (i) Revenue Recognition  Revenue from the sale of minerals will be recognized in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, when a contract is in place and minerals are delivered to the customer.  (j) Financial Instruments  Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:  Level 1  Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.  Level 2  Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.  Level 3  Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.  The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, amounts due to related parties, derivative liabilities, and notes payable. Pursuant to ASC 820, the fair value of cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and derivative liabilities is determined based on “Level 3” inputs, which consists of unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the liabilities. Refer to Note 7. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.  (k) Income Taxes  The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.  F-9    AMERICAN BATTERY METALS CORPORATION Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the nine months ended June 30, 2020 and twelve months ended September 30, 2019  2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies(continued)  (k) Income Taxes (continued)  Due to the Company’s net loss position from inception on October 6, 2011 to June 30, 2020, there was no provision for income taxes recorded. As a result of the Company’s losses to date, there exists doubt as to the ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets. Accordingly, a valuation allowance equal to the total deferred tax assets has been recorded at June 30, 2020.  (l) Stock-based Compensation  The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. As at June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, the Company did not grant any stock options.  (m) Mineral Property Costs  Mineral property acquisition costs are capitalized as incurred. Exploration and evaluation costs are expensed as incurred until proven and probable reserves are established. The Company assesses the carrying costs for impairment under ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment at each fiscal quarter end. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs then incurred to develop such property, are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations.  (n) Advertising and Marketing Costs  The Company expenses advertising and marketing development costs as incurred.  (o) Recent Accounting Pronouncements  In February 2016, Topic 842, Leases, was issued to replace the leases requirements in Topic 840, Leases. The main difference between previous GAAP and Topic 842 is the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. A lessee should recognize in the balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term.  The accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under previous GAAP. Topic 842 was effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods and is to be retrospectively applied. Earlier application is permitted. The Company adopted the standard on October 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company ́s consolidated financial statements.  The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

In addition, the Company contracts with an independent firm to review and test its internal controls. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  As of June 30, 2020, the Company’s management carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934.

(b) Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting  Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. The Company has designed internal controls to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company assesses the effectiveness of internal controls based on the criteria set forth in the 2013 Internal Control - Integrated Framework developed by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting was not effective as of June 30, 2020.  Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. It should be noted that any system of internal control, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Their service on other boards of public companies should be limited to a number that permits them, given their individual circumstances, to perform responsibly all director duties for us. Each director must represent the interests of all stockholders. When considering potential director candidates, the Board also considers the candidate’s character, judgment, diversity, age and skills, including financial literacy and experience in the context of our needs and the needs of the Board.  Family Relationships  None.  Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings  Our directors and executive officers have not been involved in any of the following events during the past ten years:  ·Any bankruptcy petition filed by or against such person or any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; ·Any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); ·Being subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining him from or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities or to be associated with any person practicing in banking or securities activities; ·Being found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action, the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a Federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated; ·Being subject of, or a party to, any Federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating to an alleged violation of any Federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation, any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies, or any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or ·Being subject of or party to any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended, or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization, any registered entity or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member.  Code of Ethics  The Company has not adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct. Management intends to adopt a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct in the near future.  Term of Office  Our directors are appointed to hold office until the next annual general meeting of our stockholders or until removed from office in accordance with our Bylaws. Our officers are appointed by our Board and hold office until removed by the Board, absent an employment agreement.  Conflicts of Interest  Since we do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors, the functions that would have been performed by such committees are performed by our directors. The Board has not established an audit committee and does not have an audit committee financial expert, nor has the Board established a nominating committee. The Board is of the opinion that such committees are not necessary since the Company is in the early stages of operations. The Company has four directors, two of which are not involved in the management of the Company, and to date, such directors have been performing the functions of such committees. The involvement of the two non-management directors mitigates some potential conflict of interest issues.  25    Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Compliance Reporting  Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires a company’s directors and officers, and persons who own more than 10% of any class of a company’s equity securities which are registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, to file with the SEC reports of ownership on Form 3 and reports of changes in ownership on Forms 4 and 5. Such officers, directors and 10% stockholders are also required to furnish the company with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us and on written representations from certain reporting persons as of June 30, 2020, we do not believe that all Section 16(a) reports applicable to our officers, directors and 10% stockholders with respect to the period ended June 30, 2020 have been filed.
