ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Item 1. BUSINESS.
Overview
Background
Idaho Copper Corporation (formerly known as Joway Health Industries Group Inc.) (the “Company” or “Idaho Copper”), incorporated in Nevada, was initially engaged in the manufacture, distribution, and sales of tourmaline-related healthcare products through operating entities in China. As a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of December 31, 2020, with Dynamic Elite International Limited, a British Virgin Islands company, Crystal Globe Limited, a British Virgin Islands company, and Joway Merger Subsidiary Limited, a British Virgin Islands company, the Company no longer had any assets or business operations. Accordingly, the Company became a shell company, as that term is defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
On February 3, 2022, the Company consummated the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of January 31, 2022 (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company, Crystal Globe Limited and JHP Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“JHP”), pursuant to which JHJP purchased 16,644,820 shares of common stock of the Company from Crystal Globe. The shares represented 83% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company on a fully diluted basis. The purchase price for the shares paid by JHP was $100,000. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, each of Crystal Globe, JHP and the Company made customary representations and warranties to each other. In connection with the acquisition of the 83% by JHP, Jinghe Zhang, the sole officer and director of the Company, resigned and Ramon Lata was appointed as the sole officer and director of the Company.
On January 23, 2023, the Company entered into and consummated the transactions contemplated by a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) by and among the Company, International CuMo Mining Corporation, an Idaho corporation (“ICUMO”), and all of the shareholders of ICUMO (collectively, the “ICUMO Shareholders”). Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, the ICUMO Shareholders transferred all the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of ICUMO to the Company in exchange for newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”). As a result of this share exchange (the “Exchange”), ICUMO became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
ICUMO owns or controls the mining claims and rights to the CuMo Project, a large primary molybdenum deposit with silver and copper deposits. Located in Boise County, Idaho, ICUMO was formed to explore the geologic and environmental factors that will determine the future development plan of the CuMo Project. A more detailed description of ICUMO’s history and business is included in Item 2 below.
Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, each share of ICUMO’s common stock held by the ICUMO Shareholders was converted into the right to receive the number of shares of Common Stock (the “Exchange Shares”) equal to an exchange ratio of 1.34 (the “Exchange Ratio”).
As a result of the Exchange, a change in control of the Company occurred with the ICUMO Shareholders owning 90.1% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. Immediately after giving effect to the Exchange, there were 202,294,000 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, held as follows:
● The stockholders of the Company prior to the Exchange held 20,054,000 shares of issued and outstanding Common Stock; and
● The ICUMO Shareholders held 182,240,000 shares of issued and outstanding Common Stock.
Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, on January 23, 2023 at the closing of the Exchange (the “Closing”) the Company assumed: (i) all ICUMO’s obligations for the options, whether or not vested, granted to key management personnel pursuant to certain incentive stock option agreements (the “Incentive Stock Options”), and any vested options are now exercisable to purchase shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.125 until December 31, 2027; and (ii) all ICUMO’s obligations pursuant to certain warrants to purchase shares of ICUMO common stock (the “2021 Warrants”), which warrants are now exercisable to purchase shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.15, until May 11, 2027. The Incentive Stock Options and 2021 Warrants are (i) exercisable for that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of ICUMO’s common stock subject to such option and warrants, immediately prior to the Closing and as adjusted by the Exchange Ratio, and (ii) have an initial exercise price per share equal to the initial exercise price per share in effect for that option or warrant immediately prior to the Closing. With respect to these Incentive Stock Options and 2021 Warrants, the Company assumed at Closing, after applying the Exchange Ratio, vested and unvested options to purchase an aggregate of 56,615,000 shares of Common Stock and warrants exercisable for up to 41,540,000 shares of Common Stock.
At the Closing, Ramon Lata, the sole officer, and director of the Company, resigned from all his offices and from the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”). In his place, the Board appointed four new directors, Robert Scannell, John Moeller, Shaun Dykes, and Andrew Brodkey, and the following four executive officers, Steven Rudofsky as Chief Executive Officer and President, Robert Scannell as Chief Financial Officer, Andrew Brodkey as Chief Operating Officer, and Shaun Dykes as Vice President, Exploration.
Private Placement by ICUMO
Prior to entering into the Share Exchange Agreement, from December 2022 to January 9, 2023, ICUMO conducted a private placement offering whereby it issued and sold convertible secured promissory notes in the total amount of $898,000 with a conversion price of $0.10 (the “Notes”) and 8,980,000 warrants to purchase ICUMO common stock, with an exercise price of $0.15 (the “2023 Warrants”). As a condition to entering into the Share Exchange Agreement, ICUMO and the Company agreed that the Company would exchange the Notes and 2023 Warrants for notes and warrants issued by the Company. Such replacement notes and warrants were issued by the Company to the holders of the Notes and 2023 Warrants on January 23, 2023 (the “Replacement Notes and Warrants”). After applying the Exchange Ratio to the conversion rate, the Company now has outstanding convertible secured promissory notes in the principal amount of $898,000 which will convert into shares of Common Stock at an adjusted conversion price of $0.075 per share of Common Stock and 11,973,333 warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock at an adjusted exercise price of $0.15 per share. Principal on the Notes is due and payable on July 23, 2025. The warrants expire on January 9, 2028.
The Replacement Notes and Warrants are secured by a first priority lien on all of the assets and mining claims of the Company, other than certain patented lode mining claims that represent approximately 7.3% of the CuMo Project.
The Company continues to be a “smaller reporting company,” as defined under the Exchange Act, however, as a result of the Exchange, the Company has ceased to be a “shell company”.
In connection with the Exchange, the Company entered into lock-up and leak-out agreements (“Lock-Up Agreements”) with (i) certain majority shareholders of ICUMO, (ii) the holders of the Incentive Stock Options, (iii) the majority stockholder of the Company prior to the Exchange; and (iv) certain service providers who will receive shares of Common Stock as payment for services rendered in connection with the Share Exchange Agreement. These Lock-Up Agreements cover the Exchange Shares, any Common Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of any Incentive Stock Options or 2021 Warrants, and all shares of Common Stock issued to such service providers (the “Covered Securities”). The Lock-Up Agreements did not require any additional restrictions to be added to the Covered Securities at issuance but rather were applicable to the holders of the Covered Securities. The Lock-up Agreements provide that the Covered Securities are subject to an 18-month lock-up from January 23, 2023, subject to (i) early release upon the Company up-listing to a national securities exchange, and (ii) termination upon certain corporate events and transactions, and also provide for certain limited permitted transfers where the recipient takes the shares subject to the restrictions in the Lock-Up Agreement. At the end of the lock-up period, the Covered Securities are subject to a one-year leak-out restriction for public resales of five percent of the trailing ten (10) day average trading volume of the Common Stock. The Company may waive these restrictions.
In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement, prior to the Closing, the Company assigned all the amounts owed to a third-party service provider to JHP, the former controlling stockholder of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of this Debt Assignment and Release Agreement, JHP Holdings, Inc. assumed all the outstanding debts of the Company as of January 23, 2023.
The CuMo Project, Geology and Mineralization
The CuMo Project currently consists of one hundred and twenty-six (126) federal unpatented lode mining claims, and six (6) patented mining claims. In total, the project comprises approximately 2,640 acres. The unpatented lode mining claims and patented claims are situated in an unorganized mining district, in Boise County, Idaho, spanning Sections in Township 7N and 8N, Range 5E and 6E, Boise Meridian.
The regional tectonic setting consists of a basement of amalgamated Archean and Paleoproterozoic crystalline terrains that were joined during the Paleoproterozoic Trans-Montana orogeny, and are overlain discontinuously by sedimentary rocks of Mesoproterozoic, Neoproterozoic, and Paleozoic ages; and volcanic and sedimentary rocks of Eocene and Miocene ages. Voluminous tonalite to granite bodies of the Idaho batholith and later granitic plutons of Eocene age intrude the older rocks. Major deformational episodes superimposed on the Precambrian basement include the Cretaceous Sevier orogeny, which mainly involved east-vergent “thin-skinned” thrusting; Eocene extensional deformation, which resulted in development of metamorphic core complexes; and basin and range type faulting.
The CuMo deposit is situated within the Idaho batholith and is part of a regional scale belt of porphyry and related deposits identified as the Idaho-Montana Porphyry Belt. Igneous complexes in this belt are interpreted to be related to an Eocene, intra-arc rift, and are characterized by alkalic rocks in the northeast, mixed alkalic and calc-alkalic rocks in the middle, and calc-alkaline rocks in the southwest. The CuMo deposit is located at the southwestern end of this belt and is associated with a calc-alkalic monzogranite, reported as 45-52Ma age that intrudes Cretaceous equigranular intrusive rocks of the Atlanta Lobe of the Idaho Batholith. The CuMo area is underlain by biotite granodiorite, the most common rock type of the Atlanta lobe of the Idaho batholith. All of the felsic intrusive phases contain molybdenite (MoS2) mineralization.
The CuMo deposit is located in an historic gold mining camp. Gold was discovered in the Boise Basin in 1862 and lode mining began within a year. As of 1940, total gold production amounted to 2.8 million ounces of which 74% was from placer operations. More gold has been produced from the Boise Basin than any other mining locality in Idaho. Although they are primarily gold deposits, considerable silver and minor copper, lead and zinc were produced as byproducts from the lodes.
The area features two separate mineralizing events that are referred to as early Tertiary and early Miocene. The first event consists of gold-quartz veins containing minor sulfide minerals that occur within the Idaho batholith and are associated with weak wall rock alteration. Associated sulfide minerals include pyrite, arsenopyrite, sphalerite, tetrahedrite, chalcopyrite, galena, and stibnite. The second mineralizing event occurs within porphyry dikes and stocks as well as in the batholith, and is characterized by relatively abundant sulfide mineralization, subordinate quartz, and widespread wall rock alteration. Base metal mineralization consists of pyrite, sphalerite, galena, tetrahedrite, chalcopyrite, minor quartz, and siderite with local occurrences of pyrrhotite and enargite.
Molybdenum mineralization was discovered at CuMo in 1963. Mineralization on the property occurs in veins and veinlets developed within various intrusive bodies. Molybdenite (MoS2) occurs within quartz veins, veinlets, and vein stockworks. Individual veinlets vary in size from tiny fractures to veinlets five centimeters in width, with an overall thickness averaging 0.3- 0.4 cm. Pyrite and/or chalcopyrite are commonly associated with molybdenite although molybdenite can occur alone without other metallic mineralization.
The CuMo deposit has been classified as a porphyry copper molybdenum deposit. But more specifically, it is a stockwork-type deposit where the principal mineralization, as described immediately above, is found in thin veins and veinlets, whereas a typical porphyry deposit features disseminated mineralized areas throughout the orebody.
The CuMo deposit is typical of large, dispersed, lower grade copper-molybdenum deposits that are associated with hybrid magmas typified by fluorine-poor, differentiated monzogranite igneous complexes. Due to their large size, the total contained economic molybdenum in these types of deposits can be equivalent to or exceed that of high-grade molybdenum deposits.
Internal Controls and Data Verification
Shaun M. Dykes (the “Qualified Person”) reviewed the procedures used by ICUMO and produced a description and an analysis of the results as contained in Section 8 of the TRS. These are standard data verifications with no limitations.
All assay results used in the verification process by the Qualified Person were obtained from fully certified analytical laboratories with signed assay certificates.
The Qualified Person has reviewed the data collection and verification procedures followed by ICUMO and by third parties on behalf of ICUMO, and believes these procedures are consistent with industry best practices and acceptable for use in geological and resource modelling.
These procedures have also been verified by several independent qualified people over the years.
For more information about quality control/quality assurance and data verification, see Section 8 and Section 9 of the TRS.
The mineral resources estimated may ultimately be affected by a broad range of environmental, permitting, socio-economic (as discussed in Section 17 of the TRS), legal, title (as discussed in Section 3 of the TRS), marketing and political factors (as discussed in Section 22 of the TRS). At this time the authors are unaware of any of these factors that could materially affect the mineral resource estimate. Of course, going forward, relevant factors that could influence the resource estimate include changes to the geological, geotechnical or geometallurgical models, infill drilling to convert mineral resources to a higher classification, drilling to test for extensions to known resources, collection of additional bulk density data and significant changes to commodity prices. It should be noted that all these factors pose potential risk and opportunities to the current mineral resource.
Current Planned Working Programs
Ore Sorting and Updated Preliminary Economic Assessment
ICUMO presently is investigating the potential to utilize additional ore sorting scanning technologies to optimize the separation of waste from ore post-mining and increase the head grade of ICUMO ore being fed to a concentrator. The thin-veined, stockwork nature of the CuMo deposit lends itself nicely to ore sorting, as noted above, since these darker colored veins largely carry the metals of interest and are much different from waste in appearance. A visual scanning exercise of all of the core recovered from the drilling activities described herein shows that on average, 84% of the waste mined can be theoretically separated through application of ore sorting, versus the 28% waste removal that SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc. (“SRK”) conservatively used in its 2020 Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”). There are over 90 active mines in the world today which utilize some form of ore sorting.
ICUMO’s sorting examination is designed to not just rely on a single sorting pass, but to possibly integrate multiple sorting technologies, such as combining surface XRF scanning at the face with downstream penetrative prompt gamma neutron activation analysis (PGNAA) or pulsed fast thermal neutron activation (PFTNA) scanners installed on the material conveyors, and potentially particle scanners to finish. The potential combination of different ore sorting technologies and equipment is intended to enable the Company to optimize the separation of ore from waste, substantially increasing the head grade of mill feed, and thereby reducing the size of the concentrator which then will only be concerned with the processing of ore. Consequently, this will in theory allow the Company to design and build a smaller concentrator, significantly reducing capital and operating costs. As an example, the Company believes that if ore sorting can remove 75% of waste pre-mill feed, this result will reduce the size of the mill to around 30,000 tons per day to produce the same amount of metal as the SRK 2020 PEA mill design of 150,000 tons per day, and thereby save over $1.5 billion in projected capital expenditures. The Company has just commenced initial discussions with consultants, and mining equipment providers who design and fabricate penetrative scanning systems for testing of CuMo material.
To date, ICUMO has performed an internal ore sorting investigation. The next phase of of ore sorting will require the Company to contract with an independent third-party engineering firm to publish an updated PEA, utilizing ore sorting results to revise the technical and economic sections of the document. The expected budget for this work is roughly $750,000 and expected completion in the fourth quarter of 2024 assuming the Company is able to raise sufficient additional capital to commission the PEA. There can be no assurance the Company will be able to raise such capital nor complete the PEA timely based on the Company’s current operational state and available capital. Refer to the Company’s Item 1A “Risk Factors” additional information concerning the Company’s current level of available capital.
Additional Exploration and Metallurgical Studies; Pre-Feasibility Study
Following completion of the updated PEA and pending issuance of a new FONSI by the USFS relating to the “2018 Supplemental Redline Environmental Assessment CuMo Exploration Project” issued by the USFS (the “2018 SREA”), the Company intends to resume its plans for additional exploration including infill, expansion, and geotechnical pit wall drilling. The infill work is intended to enable the Company to reclassify resources currently labeled as Inferred, to the level of Indicated, or Measured and Indicated. The expansion drilling should allow the Company to add more resources to at least the Inferred category. The Company has tentatively budgeted $8 million for this drilling work.
The Company also plans to initiate additional metallurgical studies to (1) determine the optimal concentrator design for both copper-silver, and molybdenum concentrate circuits, and (2) investigate the potential to recover copper and molybdenum via heap leaching of lower grade ore that is stockpiled and not immediately processed at the concentrator. The Company has identified a number of outside consultants that can be engaged for both of these studies. In total, the Company expects that these studies will cost approximately $1,000,000 and will take on the order of four (4) months to complete.
These undertakings are part of the Company’s plan to develop an independent, third-party Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) for the CuMo Project. In addition to the exploration and metallurgical work, explained above, the PFS will include expenditures for infrastructure and road improvements, environmental and permitting work, preliminary engineering, community, and public/governmental relations work, and potentially costs for expansion of the current land position. All-in, the Company has budgeted a range of $25 to $30 million to reach the PFS stage and estimates that the PFS can be completed within two years of the release of the updated PEA.
Competitive Position in the Industry
The mineral exploration, development, and production industry are largely un-integrated. The Company competes with other exploration companies looking to acquire and obtain financing for the exploration and development of mineral resource properties. While the Company competes with other exploration companies to locate and acquire mineral resource properties, it may also compete with them for the removal or sales of mineral products from its properties if it should eventually discover their presence in quantities sufficient to make production economically feasible. Readily available markets for the sale of mineral products only sometimes exist for all mineral commodities; however, the principal CuMo Project commodities of copper, silver and molybdenum are traded on international exchanges and therefore, at a minimum a terminal market exists for which these commodities can be delivered and sold.
Competition
ICUMO’s competition includes large, established mining companies with substantial capabilities and more significant financial and technical resources. As a result of this competition, it may have to compete for financing and may need help to acquire the funding on terms it considers acceptable. ICUMO may also have to compete with other mining companies to recruit and retain qualified managerial and technical employees. If ICUMO cannot compete successfully for financing or qualified employees, its exploration programs may be slowed down or suspended, which may cause it to cease operations as a company.
Employees
As of the date of this Report, other than certain executives, ICUMO has no employees. ICUMO does not have or maintain any employee benefit plans or similar plans under any applicable laws.
Name Change
On February 7, 2023, the Board and the holder of 121,343,700 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 59.98% of the Company’s voting equity, approved by written consent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of Nevada law, the execution and filing of a Certificate of Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company (the “Amendment”) with the Nevada Secretary of State, to effect the change of the Company’s name from “Joway Health Industries Group Inc.” to “Idaho Copper Corporation”. On March 9, 2023, the Company filed the Amendment with the Nevada Secretary of State, with immediate effect.
Recent Developments
Between February and April 2024, we entered into subscription agreements (each a “Subscription Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (each, a “Subscriber” and collectively, the “Subscribers”), pursuant to which the Company offered and sold to the Subscribers in a private placement offering (the “Offering”), units (each, a “Unit” and, collectively, the “Units”), for a purchase price of $12,000 per Unit, for gross proceeds of $1,952,000. Each Unit consists of one (1) share of the Company’s Series A Convertible Non-Voting Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), and (ii) 62,500 common stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”). Each share of Preferred Stock converts into 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”). The Warrant entitles the holders to shares of Common Stock for three (3) years, at an exercise price of $0.24 per share. The Company intends to utilize the net proceeds from the sale of the Units in the Offering for working capital and general corporate purposes.
Newbridge Securities Corporation acted as the sole placement agent and received cash commissions of 10.0% of the gross proceeds. Certain members of placement agent participated as investors in the Offering.
Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, the Company agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the re-sale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock and upon the exercise of the Warrants within 90 business days after the final Closing date. If the Company fails to file a registration statement by such date, the Company shall pay the Subscribers 2.5% of their respective purchase price for each 30 days that the registration statement is not filed, with a maximum of 10%.

On October 31, 2014, as subsequently amended March 26, 2015, and January 29, 2016, ICUMO entered into a Loan Agreement with La Familia II, LLC, evidenced by a secured promissory note, in the amount of $500,000. The promissory note accrues annual interest at 8.5%, has a maturity date of December 31, 2025, and is secured by a first priority deed of trust over the patented mining claims listed above.
Location, Access, Climate, Infrastructure and Topography
The CuMo Project is situated in the mountains of south-central Idaho, in the Boise National Forest, in Boise County, Idaho, approximately 15 miles northeast of the town of Idaho City, near the unincorporated community of Centerville, roughly 37 miles on a straight line, and 60 miles by road, from the city of Boise. Good all-weather highways, and USFS logging roads provide access to the project from Idaho City and Centerville. The trip from Boise takes approximately 1.5 hours. Access is limited during some winter months when significant snow cover can impede passage via the Forest Service roads.
The property is accessed by road from Boise by taking US State Highway 55 northerly for approximately 40 miles (65 km) to the town of Banks, Idaho, and then east on the Banks Lowman Road towards the town of Garden Valley for approximately 10 miles (16 km). One mile east of Garden Valley is a secondary road heading south across the Payette River. Following this secondary road, the westernmost edge of the CuMo claim block is approximately 10 miles (16 km) from Garden Valley. Alternatively, access can be gained by traveling northeast from Boise along Highway 21 past the towns of Idaho City and Centerville, along Grimes Creek, and then over the Grimes Pass.
The elevation of the CuMo project ranges between 5,100 feet and 7,200 feet. The project site features a mountain top which contains the bulk of the mineral deposit, deep ravines adjacent, and is largely forested, except for sections that have been cleared by several fires which occurred in 2014 and 2016.
The climate is defined by summer temperatures to a maximum of 100° F (38°C) and cold, windy winters with lows to -10° F (-23°C). Precipitation is moderately light with an average rainfall of 30 inches (<1 meter) and an average snowfall of approximately 140 inches (3.6 m). Vegetation in the project area consists of cedar, lodgepole pine, mountain mahogany, and juniper.
The area is serviced by the Idaho Power Company which supplies electricity to residents of Garden Valley, Lowman and Pioneerville. The nearest rail line is the Idaho Northern & Pacific line formerly operated by Union Pacific that runs through the town of Banks, approximately 20 road miles (32 km) to the west of the property. Equipment, supplies, and services for exploration and mining development projects are available at Boise. There is also a trained mining-industrial workforce available in Boise.
Exploration and mining activities at the property can be conducted year-round, due to the established road system and its proximity to other infrastructure. The property is large enough to accommodate exploration within the current CuMo deposit property footprint.

Holders of Common Stock have no preemptive rights and no right to convert their Common Stock into any other securities. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the Common Stock.
Dividends
In January 2022, the Company distributed a special dividend to its minority shareholders in connection with the Merger Agreement. Other than the special distribution in January 2022, the Company does not pay dividends on shares of Common Stock and does not anticipate paying such dividends in the foreseeable future. The declaration of any future cash dividends is at the discretion of the Board and depends upon earnings, if any, capital requirements and financial position, the Company’s general economic conditions, and other pertinent conditions.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
On January 12, 2024, we entered into Unit Subscription Purchase Agreements (“Subscription Agreements”) with purchasers for an aggregate of 23 (“Units”) at a price of $12,000 per Unit. Each Unit comprised of one (1) share of Series A Convertible Non-Voting Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), and (ii) 62,500 common stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”). The rights and preferences of the Series A Preferred Stock, include without limitation, the right of each holder thereof to convert each share of Series A Preferred Stock into 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), as set forth in the Certificate of Designation of Series A Convertible Non-Voting Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”). The Warrant holders have the right to exercise the Warrants for three (3) years at an exercise price of $0.24 per share of Common Stock. The Units were offered and sold in reliance upon exemptions from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and/or Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The Company has agreed to file a registration statement to cover the re-sale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, and upon the exercise of the Warrants. The Company intends to utilize the net proceeds from the sale of the Units in the Offering for working capital and general corporate purposes.
Penny Stock Regulations
Our shares of common stock are subject to the “penny stock” rules of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and various rules under this Act. In general terms, “penny stock” is defined as any equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. The rules provide that any equity security is considered to be a penny stock unless that security is registered and traded on a national securities exchange meeting specified criteria set by the SEC, issued by a registered investment company, and excluded from the definition on the basis of price (at least $5.00 per share), or based on the issuer’s net tangible assets or revenues. In the last case, the issuer must meet one of the following requirements: (i) net tangible assets must exceed $3,000,000 if the issuer has been in continuous operation for at least three years; or (ii) net tangible assets must exceed $5,000,000 if the issuer has been in operation for less than three years; or (iii) the issuer’s average revenues for each of the past three years must exceed $6,000,000.
Trading in shares of penny stock is subject to additional sales practice requirements for broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Accredited investors, in general, include individuals with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 (or $300,000 together with their spouse), and certain institutional investors. For transactions covered by these rules, broker-dealers must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of the security and must have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, the rules require the delivery, prior to the first transaction of a risk disclosure document relating to the penny stock. A broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, and current quotations for the security. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stocks. These rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to trade or maintain a market in our common stock, to the extent it is penny stock, and may affect the ability of shareholders to sell their shares.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Item 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION.
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report.
This discussion and analysis below include forward-looking statements that are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors described in the “Risk Factors” section that could cause actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward- looking statements as a result of various factors. Additionally, our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any period in the future. We caution you to read the “Forward Looking Statements” section of our Annual Report.
Nature of Operations
The Company is in the process of exploring its mineral right interests in the United States and at the date of these consolidated financial statements, has not yet determined whether any of its mineral properties contain economically recoverable mineral reserves. Accordingly, the carrying amount of mineral right interests represents cumulative expenditures incurred to date and does not necessarily reflect present or future values. The recovery of these costs is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable mineral reserves and the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete their exploration and development and to resolve any environmental, regulatory, or other constraints. Uncertainty also exists with respect to the recoverability of the carrying value of certain mineral right interests. The ability of the Company to realize its investment in resource properties is contingent upon the maintenance and integrity of the Company’s title to such properties.
Mining Operations
To determine material mining operations in accordance with subpart 1300 of SEC Regulation S-K, management considered both quantitative and qualitative factors, assessed in the context of the Company’s overall business and financial condition. The Company concluded that, as of the date of the filing of this Report, its sole material mining operation is the CuMo Project. The Company will update its assessment of individual material mines on an annual basis.
The information relating to such sole material mining operation is contained in the technical report summary (“TRS”) relating to the CuMo Project prepared in compliance with the Item 601(b)(96) and subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K. Reference should be made to the full text of the TRS, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 96.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K, dated January 27, 2023.
Pursuant to Item 1302(b)(5) of Regulation S-K (17 C.F.R. §229.1302(b)(5)), the Company states that the TRS was prepared by Shaun M. Dykes, M. Sc. (Eng), P.Geo of Geologic Systems, Ltd. Mr. Dykes is also serving as a technical advisor to the registrant. Mr. Dykes meets the qualifications specified under the definition of “qualified person” under Item 1300 of Regulation S-K.
The CuMo Project currently consists of one hundred and twenty-six (126) federal unpatented lode mining claims, and six (6) patented mining claims. In total, the project comprises approximately 2,640 acres. The unpatented lode mining claims and patented claims are situated in an unorganized mining district, in Boise County, Idaho, spanning Sections in Township 7N and 8N, Range 5E and 6E, Boise Meridian.
No assurances can be given that any of these plans will come to fruition or that if implemented they will necessarily yield positive results.
Independent Valuation
On March 3, 2023, an independent valuation firm issued a valuation of the assets, specifically the CuMo project in Boise County, Idaho, acquired by the Company in the ICUMO transaction. The CuMo project is a molybdenum-copper deposit that will be developed as an open pit mining operation. The estimate fair value of the assets was $23,919,754.
Exchange Transaction
As a result of the Exchange, which was consummated January 23, 2023, we are no longer a shell company. However, for the fiscal year ended as of December 31, 2022, we were a shell company and did not generate any revenues.
The Report of our independent registered public accountants on our financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2024 states that these conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the years ended January 31, 2024, and 2023, and related management discussion herein.
Our consolidated financial statements are stated in U.S. Dollars and are prepared in accordance with US GAAP.
For the Year Ended January 31, 2024 Compared to the Year Ended January 31, 2023
Revenue
The Company did not have revenues for the year ended January 31, 2024 or January 31, 2023.
Operating expenses
The Company had operating expenses of $3,004,684 for the year ended January 31, 2024, compared to $4,152,885 for the year ended January 31, 2023, comprised of the following categories:
$ Change % Change
Professional fees $ 524,931 $ 240,324 284,607 118 %
Payroll and related expenses 318,561 963,055 (644,494 ) -67 %
Rent expense 42,000 42,000 - 0 %
Stock-based stock compensation 2,043,909 2,769,292 (725,383 ) -26 %
Other general and administrative expenses 75,283 138,214 (62,931 ) -46 %
$ 3,004,684 $ 4,152,885
Professional fees increased due to increases in costs associated with being a fully reporting public company. Payroll and related expenses decreased due to cash salary reductions associated with our officers during as compared to the prior period. Stock-based compensation decreased due to a reduction in equity-based compensation as management continues to work to reduce dilution of existing shareholders. Additionally, the prior year amount included $1.7 million of expense related to costs associated with the issuance of warrants associated with the extinguishment of ICUMO debt which was replaced by debt and warrants of the Company. General and administrative costs increased due to increased in the Company’s activity generally as it continues to seek the development of its existing mining claims.
Loss from operations
The Company had a loss from operations of $3,004,684 for the year ended January 31, 2024, compared to $4,152,885 for the year ended January 31, 2023.
Other Income / Expenses
The Company had $707,363 in other expenses for the year ended January 31, 2024, compared to net expenses of $146,585 for the year ended January 31, 2023.
Net loss
The Company had a net loss of $3,712,047 for the year ended January 31, 2024, compared to $4,299,470 for the year ended January 31, 2023.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of January 31, 2024, we had current assets of $51,770 and liabilities of $6,212,379, and our working capital deficit was $1,868,607. We do not have sufficient resources to effectuate our business. We expect to incur expenses without revenues during the next twelve months of operations. We estimate that these expenses will be comprised primarily of general expenses including overhead, legal and accounting fees. To maintain our plan of growth, we need to raise a minimum of an additional $750,000. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
We will have to raise funds to pay for our expenses. We may have to borrow money from shareholders or issue debt or equity or enter into a strategic arrangement with a third party. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to us. We currently have no arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources. Since we have no such arrangements or plans currently in effect, our inability to raise funds for our operations will have a severe negative impact on our ability to remain a viable company.
We currently have no external sources of liquidity such as arrangements with credit institutions or off-balance sheet arrangements that will have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition or immediate access to capital.
Cash Flows
Operating Activities
For the year ended January 31, 2024, net cash used in operating activities was $868,427 compared to $147,574 for the year ended January 31, 2023.
Investing Activities
For the years ended January 31, 2024, and 2023, we reported no cash provided by our investing activities.
Financing Activities
For the year ended January 31, 2024, we had cash provided by financing activities of $467,200, related to proceeds from convertible notes payable and the sale of preferred stock. For the year ended January 31, 2023, we had cash provided by financing activities of $361,000, related to proceeds from notes payable.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with US GAAP, which contemplates our continuation as a going concern. The Company has no revenue and has incurred losses to date of $31,600,305. In addition, the Company’s current liabilities exceed its current assets by $1,868,607. The Company intends on financing its future development activities and its working capital needs largely from the sale of public equity securities with some additional funding from other traditional financing sources, including term notes until such time that funds provided by operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue operating as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue our operations as a going concern, realize the carrying value of our assets, and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business is dependent upon our ability to raise capital sufficient to fund its commitments and ongoing losses, and ultimately generate profitable operations.
Contractual Obligations
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information under this item.
Off Balance Sheet Items
Under SEC regulations, we are required to disclose off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, such as changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. An off-balance sheet arrangement means a transaction, agreement, or contractual arrangement to which any entity that is not consolidated with us is a party, under which we have:
● any obligation under certain guarantee contracts,
● any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to that entity for such assets,
● any obligation under a contract that would be accounted for as a derivative instrument, except that it is both indexed to our stock and classified in shareholder equity in our statement of financial position, and
● any obligation arising out of a material variable interest held by us in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to us, or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that we are required to disclose pursuant to these regulations. In the ordinary course of business, we enter into operating lease commitments, purchase commitments and other contractual obligations. These transactions are recognized in our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
Going Concern
We incurred net losses of $3,712,047 for the year ended January 31, 2024. We had an accumulated deficit of $31,600,305 and working capital deficit of $1,868,607 as of January 31, 2024. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The continuation of the Company as a going concern through the next twelve months is dependent upon the continued financial support from its stockholders or external financing. There can be no assurances to that effect, nor assurance that we will be successful in securing sufficient funds to sustain the operations.
These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. We believe that the actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plan provides the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Exploration Stage Company
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles related to accounting and reporting by exploration stage companies. An exploration stage company is one in which planned principal operations have not commenced or if its operations have commenced, there has been no significant revenues there from.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Major improvements and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the statements of operations as other gain or loss, net.
The processing plant and other machinery are depreciated over an estimated useful life of ten years; vehicles are depreciated over an estimated life of five years; and computer and other office equipment over an estimated useful life of five years.
Mineral Properties
Costs of exploration, carrying and retaining unproven mineral lease properties are expensed as incurred. Mineral property acquisition costs, including licenses and lease payments, are capitalized. Although we have taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, these procedures do not guarantee our rights. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.
Impairment losses are recorded on mineral properties used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amount. As of January 31, 2024, we did not recognize any impairment losses related to mineral properties held.
Impairment of Intangible Assets with Indefinite Useful Lives
We account for intangible assets in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”). ASC 350 requires that intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead be evaluated for impairment at least annually. On an annual basis, in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year, we review our intangible assets with indefinite useful lives for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances makes it more-likely-than-not that the fair value of an intangible asset is less than its carrying amount. If it is determined that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of an intangible asset is less than its carrying amount, the intangible asset is further tested for impairment by comparing the carrying amount to its estimated fair value using a discounted cash flow. Impairment, if any, is measured as the amount by which an indefinite-lived intangible asset’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value.
Application of impairment tests requires significant management judgment, including the determination of fair value of each indefinite-lived intangible asset. Judgment applied when performing the qualitative analysis includes consideration of macroeconomic, industry and market conditions, overall financial performance of the entity, composition, or strategy changes affecting the recoverability of asset groups. Judgments applied when performing the quantitative analysis includes estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and making other assumptions. Changes in these judgments, estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value for each indefinite-lived intangible asset.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
For long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization, we continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, we assess the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, we recognize an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.
Recently Adopted Accounting Policies
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, to address the complexity in accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. This ASU significantly changes the guidance on the issuer’s accounting for convertible instruments and the guidance on the derivative scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity so that fewer conversion features will require separate recognition, and fewer freestanding instruments, like warrants with require liability treatment. ASU 2020-06 is effective for smaller reporting companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company is still considering the effect of this.
Management does not believe any other recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncement, if adopted, would have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Item 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our senior management, consisting of Steven Rudofsky, President and Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Robert Scannell (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer), as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, consisting of Steven Rudofsky, President and Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Robert Scannell (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of January 31, 2024. Based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, and in light of the material weaknesses found in our internal controls over financial reporting, primarily due to the lack of separation of duties due to a small staff, our senior management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by our Board, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
As of January 31, 2024, management consisted of Steven Rudofsky, President and Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Robert Scannell, Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer). Current management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control--Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in 2013 and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on that evaluation, we believe that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of US GAAP rules as more fully described below. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.
The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of independent directors on our Board, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; and (3) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by Steven Rudofsky, President and Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Robert Scannell (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer) in connection with the review of our financial statements as of January 31, 2024.
Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in items (2) and (3) above did not have an effect on our financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and the lack of independent directors on our Board results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.
Management’s Remediation Initiatives
In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we have initiated, or plan to initiate, the following series of measures:
Assuming we are able to secure additional working capital, we will create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function when funds are available to us.
We also plan to appoint one or more outside directors to our Board who shall be appointed to an audit committee resulting in a fully functioning audit committee which will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures such as reviewing and approving estimates and assumptions made by management.
Management believes that the appointment of one or more independent directors, who shall be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of independent directors on our Board.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the year ended January 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
