***See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements***

**NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

Augusta Gold Corp. (the "Company") is a junior exploration stage mining company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of properties that may contain gold, silver, and other metals in the United States. The Company's target properties are those that have been the subject of historical exploration. The Company owns, controls or has acquired mineral rights on patented claims and federal unpatented claims in the state of Nevada for the purpose of exploration and potential development of gold, silver, and other metals. The Company plans to review opportunities and acquire additional mineral properties with current or historic precious and base metal mineralization with meaningful exploration potential.

The Company's Reward Gold Project has mineral reserves under subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K ("S-K 1300") under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), but the Company has not yet made a development and production determination for the project and the Company's other mineral properties do not have any reserves. The Company plans to conduct exploration and engineering evaluation programs on these properties with the objective of ascertaining whether any of its properties contain economic concentrations of precious and base metals that are prospective for mining.

**<u>Basis of Presentation and Statement of Compliance</u>**

The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (the "consolidated financial statements") have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP. The Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

**<u>Basis of Measurement</u>**

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, under the historical cost convention, except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value as described herein.

**<u>Principles of Consolidation</u>**

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Augusta Gold Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Standard Gold Corp. ("Standard Gold"), Bullfrog Mines LLC ("Bullfrog Mines"), CR Reward, LLC ("CR Reward" or "Reward") and Rocky Mountain Minerals Corp. ("Rocky Mountain Minerals" or "RMM"). All significant inter-entity balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Subsidiaries are entities the Company controls when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement in the entity and can affect those returns through its power to direct the relevant activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial results of the Company from the date of acquisition up to the date of disposition or loss of control.

**<u>Going Concern and Management's Plans</u>**

As at June 30, 2025, the Company has a working capital deficiency of approximately $37,000,000. The Company expects to continue to obtain necessary funds primarily through additional debt, the issuance of common shares, or a strategic alternative. While the Company has been successful in securing financing to date, there can be no assurances that additional debt, future equity financing, or strategic alternatives will be available on acceptable terms to the Company or at all. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. See Subsequent Events Note 8 for additional information regarding the Company's merger with AngloGold.

**<u>Cash, Cash Equivalents and Concentration</u>**

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions in the United States and Canada. On June 30, 2025, the Company's cash balance was approximately $1,000,000. To reduce its risk associated with the failure of such financial institution, the Company will evaluate, as needed, the rating of the financial institution in which it holds deposits.

**<u>Critical Judgements and Estimation Uncertainties</u>**

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and expenses. These estimates and judgements are subject to change based on experience and new information which could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities affecting future periods. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized prospectively.

*Impairment of mineral properties* – Management applies significant judgment in its assessment of mineral properties and whether there are any indications of impairment. The Company considers both internal and external sources of information when making the impairment assessment. External sources of information considered are changes in the Company's economic, legal and regulatory environment, which it does not control, but affects the recoverability of its mining assets. Internal sources of information the Company considers include the manner in which mining properties are expected to be used and indications of economic performance.

*Share-based compensation* – The fair value of share-based compensation is calculated using the Black-Scholes model. The main assumptions used in the model include the estimated life of the option, the expected volatility of the Company's share price, and the risk-free rate of interest. The resulting value calculated is not necessarily the value that the holder of the option could receive in an arm's-length transaction.

*Warrant liability* – The fair value of the warrant liability is calculated using the Black-Scholes model. The main assumptions used in the model include the estimated life of the warrant, the expected volatility of the Company's share price, and the risk-free rate of interest. The resulting value calculated is not necessarily the value that the holder of the warrant could receive in an arm's-length transaction.

*Asset retirement obligation* – Significant judgment is involved in the determination of future reclamation costs, inflation rates, discount rate, and the life of mine. Revisions to these inputs may result in an adjustment to the carrying value of the obligation and the mineral properties involved.

**<u>Foreign Currency Translation</u>**

The Company is exposed to currency risk on transactions and balances in currencies other than the functional currency. The Company has not entered into any contracts to manage foreign exchange risk.

These consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars ("USD"), which is the Company's reporting currency. The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the US dollar; therefore, the Company is exposed to currency risk from financial assets and liabilities denominated in Canadian dollars. The Company does not consider the currency risk to be material to the future operations of the Company and, as such, does not have a program to manage currency risk.

Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded in the functional currency at exchange rates prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the period end exchange rates. Non-monetary items are translated at the exchange rates in effect on the date of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses arising on translation are presented in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.

**<u>Property and Equipment</u>**

Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 5 to 15 years. Additions, renewals, and betterments that significantly extend the life of the asset are capitalized. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. For assets sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts, and any related gain or loss is reflected in income for the period.

**<u>Leases</u>**

The Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), for reporting leases. For leases of 12 months or less, the Company has elected to apply the short-term lease exemption permitted by ASC 842. For leases with a lease term greater than one year, the Company recognizes a lease asset for its right to use the underlying leased asset and a lease liability for the corresponding lease obligation.

**<u>Mineral Property Acquisition and Exploration Costs</u>**

Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred until economic reserves are quantified. To date, the Company has established proven and probable reserves on its Reward Gold Project but has not established any proven or probable mineral reserves on its other mineral properties. The Company has not yet made a development decision on the Reward Gold Project. Costs of lease, exploration, carrying and retaining unproven mineral lease properties are expensed as incurred. The Company has chosen to expense all mineral exploration costs as incurred given that it is still in the exploration stage. Once the Company has identified proven and probable mineral reserves in its investigation of its properties and upon development of a plan for operating a mine, it would enter the development stage and capitalize future costs until production is established. When a property reaches the production stage, the related capitalized costs will be amortized over the estimated life of the probable-proven mineral reserves. When the Company has capitalized mineral properties, these properties will be periodically assessed for impairment of value and any diminution in value. To date, the Company has only determined the commercial feasibility of its Reward Gold Project but has not made a development decision on the project and has not established the commercial feasibility of any of its other exploration prospects; therefore, all exploration costs are being expensed. Costs of property and equipment acquisitions are being capitalized.

The Company is required to reclaim the property at the Bullfrog Project and Reward Project at the end of their useful lives. In accordance with FASB ASC 410-20, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations, the Company recognized the fair value of a liability for an ARO in the amount of $1,721,680 at the Bullfrog Project and $837,557 at the Reward Project. During the period ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred certain costs related to the ARO estimate that had an effect on the accretion and estimated costs.

Although the ultimate amounts for future site reclamation and remediation are uncertain, the best estimate of these obligations was based on information available, including current legislation, third-party estimates, and management estimates. The amounts and timing of the mine closure obligations will vary depending on several factors including future operations and the ultimate life of the mine, future economic conditions, and changes in applicable environmental regulations.

**<u>Fair Value of Financial Instruments</u>**

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Valuation based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 - Valuation based on quoted market prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets.

Level 3 - Valuation based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, therefore requiring management's best estimate of what market participants would use as fair value.

The fair value of cash, deposits, accounts payable, and notes payable approximates their carrying values due to their short term to maturity. The warrant liabilities are measured using level 3 inputs (Note 4).

**<u>Income Taxes</u>**

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, "Income Taxes". Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases as well as operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent that the recoverability of the asset is unlikely to be recognized.

The Company reports a liability, if any, for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain tax positions taken, or expected to be taken, in an income tax return. The Company has elected to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized income tax benefits, if and when required, as part of income tax expense in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss. No liability has been recorded for uncertain income tax positions, or related interest or penalties. The tax returns are generally open for IRS examination for three years from the date the return was filed or the due date of the return, whichever is later.

**<u>Long Lived Assets</u>**

The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. When the Company determines that the carrying value of long-lived assets may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more indicators of impairment and the carrying value of the asset cannot be recovered from projected undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment charge. The Company measures any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in the current business model. Significant management judgment is required in determining whether an indicator of impairment exists and in projecting cash flows.

**<u>Preferred Stock</u>**

The Company accounts for its preferred stock under the provisions of the ASC 480 on Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, which sets forth the standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. This standard requires an issuer to classify a financial instrument that is within the scope of the standard as a liability if such financial instrument embodies an unconditional obligation to redeem the instrument at a specified date and/or upon an event certain to occur. The Company has determined that its preferred stock does not meet the criteria requiring liability classification as its obligation to redeem these instruments is not based on an event certain to occur. Future changes in the certainty of the Company's obligation to redeem these instruments could result in a change in classification.

**<u>Stock-Based Compensation</u>**

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). This ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

The estimated fair value of each stock option as of the date of grant was calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock at the date of grant based on Company stock price history. The Company determines the expected life based on the simplified method given that its own historical share option exercise experience does not provide a reasonable basis for estimating expected term. The Company uses the risk-free interest rate on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury issues with an equivalent remaining term approximately equal to the expected life of the award. The Company has never paid any cash dividends on its common stock and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The shares of common stock subject to the stock-based compensation plan shall consist of unissued shares, treasury shares or previously issued shares held by any subsidiary of the Company, and such number of shares of common stock are reserved for such purpose.

**<u>Derivative Financial Instruments</u>**

The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging ("ASC 815"), which requires additional disclosures about the Company's objectives and strategies for using derivative instruments, how the derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for, and how the derivative instruments and related hedging items affect the financial statements. The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risk. Terms of convertible debt and equity instruments are reviewed to determine whether or not they contain embedded derivative instruments that are required under ASC 815 to be accounted for separately from the host contract and recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. The fair value of derivative liabilities, if any, is required to be revalued at each reporting date, with corresponding changes in fair value recorded in current period operating results. Pursuant to ASC 815, an evaluation of specifically identified conditions is made to determine whether the fair value of warrants issued is required to be classified as equity or as a derivative liability.

Certain warrants are treated as derivative financial liabilities. The estimated fair value, based on the Black-Scholes model, is adjusted on a quarterly basis with gains or losses recognized in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss. The Black-Scholes model is based on significant assumptions such as volatility, dividend yield, expected term and liquidity discounts.

**<u>Earnings (Loss) per Common Share</u>**

| Diluted loss per common share | $(0.02) | $(0.01) | $(0.04) | $(0.04) |

---

In periods when the Company has a net loss, all common stock equivalents are excluded as they would be anti-dilutive. All options and warrants were excluded in the diluted weighted average shares calculation because of the net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

**<u>Recent Accounting Pronouncements</u>**

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting – Improvements to Reportable Segments Disclosures. The amendments enhance disclosures of significant segment expenses by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM), extend certain annual disclosures to interim periods, and permit more than one measure of segment profit or loss to be reported under certain conditions. The amendments are effective for the Company in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption of the amendment is permitted, including adoption in any interim periods for which financial statements have not been issued. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 effective as of December 31, 2024, and the segment disclosures in Note 7 are reflective of that adoption.

**<u>Accounting pronouncements not yet adopted</u>**

Mineral properties consist of two main projects:

<u>Bullfrog Gold Project, Nevada</u>

On October 26, 2020, the Company completed its acquisition of Bullfrog Mines pursuant to the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the "MIPA") among the Company, Homestake Mining Company of California ("Homestake"), and Lac Minerals (USA) LLC ("Lac Minerals" and together with Homestake, the "Barrick Parties").

<u>Reward Gold Project, Nevada</u>

On June 13, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of the outstanding membership interests (collectively, the "CR Interests") of CR Reward LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Waterton ("CR Reward"), pursuant to a membership interest purchase agreement with Waterton Nevada Splitter, LLC ("Waterton"). CR Reward holds the Reward Project located seven miles from the Company's Bullfrog Project in Nevada.

See Note 6 Commitments for discussion of other option agreements underlying mineral claims.

**NOTE 3 - STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY**

The Company did not issue common shares for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and year ended December 31, 2024.

**<u>Convertible Preferred Stock</u>**

In August 2011, the Board of Directors designated 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock as Series A Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into one share of common stock at the option of the preferred holder. The Series A Preferred Stock is not entitled to receive dividends and does not possess redemption rights. The Company is prohibited from effecting the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock to the extent that, as a result of the conversion, the holder of such shares would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or, if this limitation is waived by the holder upon no less than 61 days prior notice to us, 9.99%) in the aggregate of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. The holders of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock are also entitled to certain liquidation preferences upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the business of the Company.

In October 2012, the Board of Directors designated 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock as Series B Preferred Stock. In July 2016, the Board of Directors increased the total Series B Preferred Stock designated to 7,500,000. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into one share of common stock at the option of the preferred holder. The Series B Preferred Stock is not entitled to receive dividends and does not possess redemption rights. The Company is prohibited from effecting the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock to the extent that, as a result of the conversion, the holder of such shares would beneficially own more than 4.99% (which may be increased or waived upon no less than 61 days prior notice) in the aggregate of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. For a period of 24 months from the issue date, the holder of Series B Preferred Stock were entitled to price protection as determined in the subscription agreement. The Company has evaluated this embedded lower price issuance feature in accordance with ASC 815 and determined that it is clearly and closely related to the host contract and is therefore accounted for as an equity instrument.

As of June 30, 2025 and 2024, there was no Preferred Stock outstanding.

**<u>Common Stock Options</u>**

On February 22, 2021, the Company's Board of Directors approved a new stock option plan (the "Plan"). The aggregate number of shares of common stock of the Company (a "Share") that may be reserved for issuance pursuant to the Plan shall not exceed 10% of the number of Shares issued and outstanding from time to time. Options granted vest in accordance with terms at the discretion of the Board.

On April 16, 2024, the Company granted 2,800,000 options to certain directors, officers and employees. On August 13, 2024, the Company granted 200,000 options to an officer.

The Company recognized share-based compensation expense related to stock options of $202,831 and $416,482 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The options are vested based on years of service, with options vesting between immediately and three years.

The Black Scholes option pricing model was used to estimate the aggregate fair value of the options with the following inputs:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Options** | **Exercise<br> Price** | **Exercise<br> Price** | **Expected<br> Life** | **Volatility** | **Risk <br> Free<br> Interest<br> Rate** |

**NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY**

*Augusta Investments Inc.*

● On September 13, 2022, the Company entered into a secured note purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Augusta Investments Inc. ("Augusta Investments"), which shares a common director of Augusta Gold, to offer and sell a secured promissory note of the Company (the "Note") in exchange for Augusta Investments loaning the Company $22,232,561 (the "Loan"). The Loan and the issuance of the Note occurred on September 13, 2022. The Company used the Loan to make the second payment and deferred payment to Waterton Nevada Splitter LLC ("Waterton") on September 13, 2022, in connection with the Company's acquisition of its Reward gold project that closed on June 13, 2022.

The Note bears interest at a rate of prime plus 3%. The Note is secured by a first-priority, perfected security interest in all the assets of the Company pursuant to a guarantee and security agreement (the "Security Agreement") and certain deeds of trust (the "Deeds of Trust", collectively with the Purchase Agreement, the Note and the Security Agreement, the "Loan Documents").

The payment of the obligations of the Company under the Note is also guaranteed by each of the subsidiaries of the Company pursuant to the Security Agreement. The Company paid Augusta Investments an origination fee of 0.5% of the amount of the Loan on the closing of the issuance of the Note pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

● On September 13, 2023, the Company and Augusta Investments entered into Amendment Number One (the "Amendment") to the Note. The Amendment amended Section 1 of the Note to change the maturity date of the Note from September 13, 2023 to the earlier of (i) first Business Day occurring 30 days after the Lender has provided written notice to the Company demanding payment on the entire unpaid balance of principal and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon; (ii) the date upon which the Company makes payment in full of the entire unpaid balance of principal and all accrued and unpaid interest; and (iii) December 13, 2023.

● On December 13, 2023, the Company and Augusta Investments entered into Amendment Number Two ("Amendment 2") to the Note. Amendment 2 amended Section 1 of the Note to change the maturity date of the Note from December 13, 2023, to March 31, 2024. In consideration for the Lender granting an extension to the maturity date, the Company has agreed to pay to the Lender an extension fee of $33,501, which is accrued and due on the maturity date.

● On March 27, 2024, the Company entered into Amendment Number One (the "Purchase Agreement Amendment") to its previously issued Purchase Agreement with Augusta Investments, pursuant to which Augusta Investments agreed to purchase the Note in the amount of US$22,232,561.

In connection with entering into the Purchase Agreement Amendment, Augusta Investments loaned the Company an additional $525,000, less a $25,000 loan origination fee, and the Company issued an amended and restated Note to Augusta Investments dated March 27, 2024 (the "Amended and Restated Note"). The Amended and Restated Note amended the Note to provide that the principal amount due and payable thereunder will be set forth on Schedule A thereto, as amended from time to time, by the mutual agreement of the parties. As issued on March 27, 2024, the Amended and Restated Note was for a principal amount of $22,818,853, which includes (i) the original issue amount of the Note on September 13, 2022 of $22,126,000 (along with $106,561 of debt issuance costs), (ii) an extension fee of $33,501 on December 13, 2023, (iii) the $500,000 loan (along with an additional $25,000 of debt issuance costs) on March 27, 2024 and (iv) the extension fee of $27,791 on March 27, 2024. The Amended and Restated Note bears interest at a rate of prime plus 3% and had an outside maturity date of June 30, 2024.

● On April 26, 2024, the Company amended Schedule A to the Amended and Restated Note. In connection with amending Schedule A, the Purchaser loaned the Company an additional $1,500,000 pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Note. As amended by the amended Schedule A, the Amended and Restated Note was for a principal amount of $24,318,853.

● On June 28, 2024, the Company entered into Amendment Number One (the "June 2024 Amendment") to the Amended and Restated Note.

The June 2024 Amendment amended Section 1 of the Amended and Restated Note to change the outside maturity date of the Amended and Restated Note from June 30, 2024, to September 30, 2024. In consideration for Augusta Investments granting an extension to the maturity date, the Company agreed to pay to Augusta Investments an extension fee of $30,399, which amount is accrued and due on the maturity date.

In connection with the June 2024 Amendment, the Company and Augusta Investments further amended Schedule A to the Amended and Restated Note to add the amount of the Extension Fee to the principal amount of the Amended and Restated Note. As amended by the amended Schedule A, the Amended and Restated Note was for a principal amount of $24,349,251.

● On September 3, 2024, the Company further amended Schedule A to the Amended and Restated Note.

● Legal fees and professional fees increased due to additional corporate activities in 2025.

● The payroll and corporate expenses result from the Company having an agreement to share office space, equipment, personnel, consultants and various administrative services for the Company's head office located in Vancouver, BC, Canada. Management expects payroll costs to fluctuate based on the personnel and consultants used during the period.

● Share-based compensation decreased to $203,000 from $416,000 primarily due to vesting of a large grant of stock options in April 2024.

For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company decreased exploration, evaluation and project expenses by approximately $273,000. The change was due to the following year over year variances:

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company continued with development and compliance activities for the Reward and Bullfrog Projects.

The revaluation of the warrant liability is based on the 3,362,573 warrants issued in January 2023 with an exercise price of C$2.30.

**<u>Liquidity and Capital Resources</u>**

The Company has no revenue generating operations from which it can internally generate funds. To date, the Company's ongoing operations have been financed by the sale of its equity securities by way of public offerings, private placements and the exercise of incentive stock options and share purchase warrants. The Company believes that it will be able to secure additional private placements and public financing in the future, although it cannot predict the size or pricing of any such financing.

*Liquidity*

As of June 30, 2025, the Company had total liquidity of $1,020,000 in cash and cash equivalents. The Company had negative working capital of $37,000,000 and an accumulated deficit of $43,300,000. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company had negative operating cash flows before changes in working capital of $3,400,000 and a net loss of $3,500,000.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had total liquidity of $613,000 in cash and cash equivalents. The Company had negative working capital of $30,000,000 and an accumulated deficit of $36,000,000. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company had negative operating cash flows before changes in working capital of $3,400,000 and a net loss of $3,100,000.

The Company does not expect that it will be required to raise additional funds through public or private equity financings prior to closing of the Merger.

*Capital Management*

The Company's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in order to pursue the development and exploration of its mineral properties and to maintain a flexible capital structure, which optimizes the costs of capital to an acceptable risk.

As of June 30, 2025, the capital structure of the Company consists of 85,929,753 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001. The Company manages the capital structure and adjusts it in response to changes in economic conditions, its expected funding requirements, and risk characteristics of the underlying assets. The Company's funding requirements are based on cash forecasts. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may issue new debt, new shares and/or consider strategic alliances. Management reviews its capital management approach on a regular basis. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

*Contractual obligations and commitments*

The Company's contractual obligations and commitments as of June 30, 2025, and their approximate timing of payment are as follows:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **<1 year** | **1 - 3 years** | **4 - 5 years** | **>5 years** | **Total** |
| Leases | $88000 | $205000 | $50000 | $600000 | $943000 |
| Royalty | $60400 | $197200 | $147300 | $791500 | $1196400 |

---

**<u>Off Balance Sheet Arrangements</u>**

The Company does not engage in any activities involving variable interest entities or off-balance sheet arrangements.

**<u>Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates</u>**

Stock based compensation is measured at grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employee's requisite service period. We estimate the fair value of each stock option as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Company determines the expected life based on historical experience with similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms, vesting schedules and post-vesting forfeitures. The Company uses the risk-free interest rate on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury issues with an equivalent remaining term approximately equal to the expected life of the award. The Company has never paid any cash dividends on its common stock and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred until economic reserves are quantified. To date, the Company has established proven and probable reserves on its Reward Gold Project but has not established any proven or probable mineral reserves on its other mineral properties. The Company has not yet made a development decision on the Reward Gold Project. Costs of lease, exploration, carrying and retaining unproven mineral lease properties are expensed as incurred. The Company has chosen to expense all mineral exploration costs as incurred given that it is still in the exploration stage. Once the Company has identified proven and probable mineral reserves in its investigation of its properties and upon development of a plan for operating a mine, it would enter the development stage and capitalize future costs until production is established. When a property reaches the production stage, the related capitalized costs will be amortized over the estimated life of the probable-proven mineral reserves. When the Company has capitalized mineral properties, these properties will be periodically assessed for impairment of value and any diminution in value. To date, the Company has only determined the commercial feasibility of its Reward Gold Project but has not made a development decision on the project and has not established the commercial feasibility of any of its other exploration prospects; therefore, all exploration costs are being expensed. Costs of property and equipment acquisitions are being capitalized.

**ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES AND MARKET RISK**

Not Applicable.

**ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

**<u>Disclosure Controls and Procedures</u>**

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2025.

Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures.

Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

With respect to the quarterly period ending June 30, 2025, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based upon our evaluation regarding the quarterly period ending June 30, 2025, our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has concluded that its disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that: (i) information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms and (ii) material information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow for accurate and timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

**<u>Changes in Internal Controls</u>**

There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal controls over financial reporting.

**PART II. OTHER INFORMATION**

**ITEM 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS**

The Company knows of no material, active or pending legal proceedings against the Company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.

**ITEM 1A - RISK FACTORS**

Other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. The risks described in our Annual Report and as otherwise herein are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, cash flows, and/or future results.

**There is no assurance when or if the Merger will be completed.**

The completion of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions as set forth in the Merger Agreement, including, among others (i) approval of the Merger and the Merger Agreement by the stockholders of the Company as required under the Merger Agreement, (ii) obtaining certain regulatory and governmental approvals, and (iii) the absence of legal restraints prohibiting the completion of the Merger. There can be no assurance as to when these conditions will be satisfied or waived, if at all, or that other events will not intervene to delay or result in the failure to close the Merger. A substantial delay in obtaining satisfactory approvals or the imposition of unfavorable terms or conditions in any government or regulatory approvals could have an adverse effect on the business or financial condition of the Company. In addition, if for any reason the conditions to the Merger are not satisfied or waived or if the Merger is not completed for any reason, the Company's ongoing business and financial results may be adversely affected, the market price of the Company's shares of common stock may be adversely affected.

**Failure to complete the Merger could negatively impact the market price of the Company's shares of common stock and the Company's future business and financial results.**

If the Merger is not completed for any reason, the Company's ongoing business and financial results may be adversely affected. In addition, if the Merger is not completed, the Company will be subject to a number of additional risks, including the following:

● Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, in certain circumstances, if the Merger is not completed by reason of certain circumstances attributable to the Company, the Company will be required to pay a termination fee of US$3.6 million to Parent;

● The price of the Company's shares of common stock may decline to the extent that the current market price of the Company's shares of common stock reflects a market assumption that the Merger will be completed and that the related benefits will be realized, or as a result of the market's perceptions that the Merger was not consummated due to an adverse change in the Company's business or financial condition;

 ****

● The Company will continue to be liable to repay the amount outstanding under the secured loan with Augusta Investments Inc. and unsecured loan with Donald Taylor. There can be no certainty that the Company will have the financial capacity to repay the amounts under such loans when due, or at all.

 ****

● Whether or not the Merger is completed, the pending Merger could adversely affect the Company's operations because matters relating to the Merger require substantial commitments of time and resources by the Company's management and employees which could otherwise have been devoted to other opportunities that may have been beneficial to the Company.

The Company cannot guarantee when, or whether, the Merger will be completed, that there will not be a delay in the completion of the Merger or that all or any of the anticipated benefits of the Merger will be obtained. If the Merger is not completed or is delayed, the Company may experience the risks discussed above which may adversely affect the Company's business, financial results and share price.

**The application of interim operating covenants may restrict the Company's ability to pursue certain opportunities.**

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company has agreed to certain interim operating covenants intended to ensure that the Company carries on business in the ordinary course consistent with past practice, except as required or expressly authorized by the Merger Agreement or any applicable law, or unless the prior written consent of AngloGold Ashanti is obtained. These operating covenants cover a broad range of activities and business practices. Consequently, it is possible that a business opportunity will arise that is out of the ordinary course or is not consistent with past practices, and that the Company will not be able to pursue or undertake the opportunity due to its covenants in the Merger Agreement unless the prior written consent of AngloGold Ashanti is obtained (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

**The voting agreement entered into by directors and officers of the Company with AngloGold Ashanti may prevent certain directors and officers of the Company from supporting a third-party transaction.**

The directors and officers of the Company that own shares of the Company's common stock have agreed not to support any third-party transaction during the term of the voting agreement they have signed with AngloGold Ashanti. Because these stockholders own or control approximately 31.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock, it may not be possible for a competing purchaser to acquire the Company until the voting agreement is terminated. Directors of the Company are permitted under the voting agreement to undertake any actions necessary to the fulfilment of their fiduciary duties in their capacity as directors of the Company, which would include making a change in their recommendation regarding the Merger, but this would not extend to their support of a third-party transaction in their capacity as a stockholder of the Company. The voting agreement does terminate upon termination of the Merger Agreement, so in the case where the Merger Agreement is terminated, for example, upon acceptance of a superior proposal to acquire the Company from a third-party, the voting agreement would terminate and these restrictions would no longer apply.

**The fairness opinion obtained by the Company's board of directors from its independent financial advisor will not reflect subsequent changes.**

In connection with the proposed Merger, National Bank Financial delivered to the Company's board of directors an opinion dated July 15, 2025 to the effect that as of that date, and based upon and subject to the various considerations set forth in the opinion, the Merger Consideration was fair, from a financial point of view, to the Company's stockholders, excluding Augusta Investments Inc., Mr. Warke and Mr. Taylor (the "Related Parties"). The opinion does not reflect changes that may occur or that have occurred after the date of the opinion, including changes to the operations and prospects of the Company, fluctuations in the price of gold and silver, changes in the market prices of the Company's shares of common stock, changes in general market or economic conditions or regulatory or other factors. Any such changes, or changes of other factors on which the opinion is based, may materially alter or affect the fairness of the Merger Consideration and the value of the Merger.

**The Merger Agreement limits the Company's ability to pursue alternatives to the Merger, including if the Merger is not completed.**

The Merger Agreement contains provisions that restrict Augusta Gold from selling its business to a party other than the AngloGold Ashanti and restrict it from pursuing other strategic alternatives. These provisions include a general prohibition on soliciting any acquisition proposal or offer for a competing transaction and the requirement that the Company pay a termination fee if the Merger Agreement is terminated in specified circumstances. The Company's board of directors is also limited in its ability to make an adverse change in their recommendation to stockholders of the Company to approve the Merger. While the Company believes these provisions are reasonable, these provisions may discourage a third party that may have an interest in acquiring the Company from considering or proposing such an acquisition, even if such third party were prepared to pay consideration with a higher per share cash or market value than the consideration proposed to be received or realized in the Merger, or might result in a potential acquirer proposing to pay a lower price than it would otherwise have proposed to pay because of the added expense of the termination fee that may become payable. In addition, these provisions may prevent or delay the Company from having adequate time to avoid liquidity problems and continue as a going concern, which will be necessary if the Merger is terminated.

**Certain of the Company's directors and executive officers have interests in the Merger that are different from the interests of the Company's stockholders.**

The Company's board of directors approved the Merger Agreement and the Merger, and determined that the Merger Consideration is fair to the Company's stockholders, excluding the Related Parties, and in the best interests of the Company's stockholders should be aware that the directors and executive officers of the Company may have financial interests in the Merger that are different from, or in addition to, the interests of stockholders. The directors and executive officers hold options in the Company that will accelerate and vest by reason of the Merger and cerain out-of-the money options will be cancelled in return for the payment of the Black-Scholes value of the options. In addition, certain officers of the Compnay are entitled to certain change of control, success fees and other payments as a result of the Transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Certain directors and executive officers will also have the debt they are owed by the Company repaid at the effective time pursuant to the Merger. These interests may cause certain of directors and executive officers to view the Merger more favorably than other stockholders. Stockholders should carefully review the information in the definitive proxy statement to be sent to stockholders of the Company regarding these interests of directors and officers of the Company prior to voting on the matters at the special meeting of stockholders to be held for approval of the Merger.

**ITEM 2 - UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS**

None.

**ITEM 3 - DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES**

None

**ITEM 4 - MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES**

Pursuant to Section 1503(a) of the United States *Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2011* (the "Dodd-Frank Act"), issuers that are operators, or that have a subsidiary that is an operator, of a coal or other mine in the United States are required to disclose in their periodic reports filed with the SEC information regarding specified health and safety violations, orders and citations, related assessments and legal actions, and mining-related fatalities under the regulation of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Administration ("MSHA") under the *United States Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977* (the "Mine Act"). During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we had no U.S. properties subject to regulation by the MSHA under the Mine Act and consequently no disclosure is required under Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act.

**ITEM 5 - OTHER INFORMATION**

(a) None.

(b) None.

(c) During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, none of our directors or officers adopted, modified, or terminated any "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" or "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement," as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.
