Entrée Resources Ltd. (the “Company” or the “Registrant” or “Entrée”) is a Canadian issuer eligible to

“Exchange Act”), on Form 40-F pursuant to the multi-jurisdictional disclosure system of the Exchange 
Act.  The Company is a “foreign private issuer” as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act.  The

the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 3a12-3. 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS 

This Annual Report on Form 40-F and the exhibits attached hereto contain “forward-looking statements” 
and “forward looking information” (together the “forward-looking statements”) within the meaning of the 
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. These forward-looking statements are made 
as of the date of this Annual Report and the Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, 
to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by applicable securities laws. Capitalized 
terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Company’s Annual Information 
Form  (“AIF”),  filed  as  Exhibit  99.1  to  this  Annual  Report  on  Form  40-F  and  incorporated  herein  by 
reference. 

Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to corporate strategies

set out in OTMSS20 and the 2021 Technical Report on the Company’s interest in the Entrée/Oyu Tolgoi 
JV Property; timing and status of Oyu Tolgoi underground development; the expected timing of sustainable 
production  from  Panel  0  on  the  Oyu  Tolgoi  mining  licence;  the  nature  of  the  ongoing  relationship  and

the impact of any delays on the Company’s cash flows, expected copper, gold and silver grades, liquidity, 
funding requirements and planning; future commodity prices; the potential impact of COVID-19 on Oyu 
Tolgoi  underground  development  and  the  Company’s  business,  operations  and  financial  condition;  the

capital  and  operating  costs,  mill  throughput,  cash  flows  and  mine  life;  capital,  financing  and  project 
development risk; mining dilution; discussions with the Government of Mongolia, Rio Tinto, OTLLC and 
Turquoise Hill on a range of issues including Entrée’s interest in the Entrée/Oyu Tolgoi JV Property, the

Government  of  Mongolia  with  respect  to  the  Shivee  Tolgoi  and  Javhlant  mining  licences  and  Entrée’s 
interest in the Entrée/Oyu Tolgoi JV Property; the potential for Entrée to be included in or otherwise receive 
the benefits of the Oyu Tolgoi Investment Agreement or another similar agreement; the potential for the 
Government  of  Mongolia  to  seek  to  directly  or  indirectly  invest  in  Entrée’s  interest  in  the  Hugo  North 
Extension and Heruga deposits; the potential application of the Government of Mongolia’s Resolution 81, 
Resolution  140  and  Resolution  175  to  the  Shivee  Tolgoi  and  Javhlant  licences;  potential  size  of  a 
mineralized  zone;  potential  expansion  of  mineralization;  potential  discovery  of  new  mineralized  zones; 
potential metallurgical recoveries and grades; plans for future exploration and/or development programs 
and budgets; permitting time lines; anticipated business activities; proposed acquisitions and dispositions 
of assets; and future financial performance. 

In certain cases, forward-looking statements and information can be identified by words such as "plans", 
"expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "budgeted", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", 
"anticipates", or "does not anticipate" or "believes" or variations of such words and phrases or statements 

 
 
 
that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might", "will be taken", "occur" or "be 
achieved". While the Company has based these forward-looking statements on its expectations about future 
events as at the date that such statements were prepared, the statements are not a guarantee of Entrée’s 
future  performance  and  are  based  on  numerous  assumptions  regarding  present  and  future  business 
strategies;  the  correct  interpretation  of  agreements,  laws  and  regulations;  local  and  global  economic 
conditions  and  negotiations  and  the  environment  in  which  Entrée  will  operate  in  the  future,  including 
commodity  prices,  projected  grades,  projected  dilution,  anticipated  capital  and  operating  costs,  and 
anticipated future production and cash flows; the anticipated location of certain infrastructure and sequence 
of  mining  within  and  across  panel  boundaries;  the  construction  and  continued  development  of  the  Oyu 
Tolgoi  underground  mine;  the  status  of  Entrée’s  relationship  and  interaction  with  the  Government  of 
Mongolia, OTLLC, Rio Tinto and Turquoise Hill; and the Company’s ability to operate sustainably, its 
community relations and its social licence to operate.  

With  respect  to  the  construction  and  continued  development  of  the  Oyu  Tolgoi  underground  mine, 
important risks, uncertainties and factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from future 
results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements and information include, amongst others, 
the nature of the ongoing relationship and interaction between OTLLC, Turquoise Hill and Rio Tinto and 
the  Government  of  Mongolia  with  respect  to  the  continued  operation  and  development  of  Oyu  Tolgoi 
following the implementation of the comprehensive agreement with the Government of Mongolia along 
with the implementation of Resolution 103; the continuation of undercutting in accordance with the mine 
plan  and  design;  actual  timing  of  first  sustainable  production  from  Panel  0  as  well  as  the  lifting  of 
restrictions by the Government of Mongolia on the ability of OTLLC to incur additional indebtedness; the 
amount of any future funding gap to complete the Oyu Tolgoi project; liquidity, Oyu Tolgoi project funding 
sources and Oyu Tolgoi project funding requirements; the implementation and successful execution of the 
funding plan that is the subject of the Amended HoA and potential delays in the ability of Turquoise Hill 
or OTLLC to proceed with the funding elements contemplated by the Amended HoA; the timing and cost 
of  the  construction  and  expansion  of  mining  and  processing  facilities;  the  ability  of  OTLLC  or  the 
Government of Mongolia to deliver a domestic power source for Oyu Tolgoi (or the availability of financing 
for OTLLC or the Government of Mongolia to construct such a source) within the required contractual 
timeframe; sources of interim power; OTLLC’s ability to operate sustainably, its community relations, and 
its  social  licence  to  operate  in  Mongolia;  the  potential  impact  of  COVID-19,  including  any  restrictions 
imposed  by  health  and  governmental  authorities  relating  thereto;  the  impact  of  changes  in,  changes  in 
interpretation to or changes in enforcement of, laws, regulations and government practises in Mongolia; 
delays, and the costs which would result from delays, in the development of the underground mine; the 
anticipated location of certain infrastructure and sequence of mining within and across panel boundaries; 
projected commodity prices and their market demand; and production estimates and the anticipated yearly 
production of copper, gold and silver at the Oyu Tolgoi underground mine.  

The  2021  PEA  is  based  on  a  conceptual  mine  plan  that  includes  Inferred  mineral  resources.  Numerous 
assumptions were made in the preparation of the 2021 PEA, including with respect to mineability, capital 
and  operating  costs,  production  schedules,  the  timing  of  construction  and  expansion  of  mining  and 
processing facilities, and recoveries, that may change materially once production commences at Hugo North 
Extension  Lift  1  and  additional  development  and  capital  decisions  are  required.  Any  changes  to  the 
assumptions underlying the 2021 PEA could cause actual results to be materially different from any future 
results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by forward-looking statements and information 
relating to the 2021 PEA.  

Other risks,  uncertainties  and factors  which could cause  actual  results, performance or achievements of 
Entrée  to  differ  materially  from  future  results,  performance  or  achievements  expressed  or  implied  by 
forward-looking  statements  and  information  include,  amongst  others,  unanticipated  costs,  expenses  or 
liabilities;  discrepancies  between  actual  and  estimated  production,  mineral  reserves  and  resources  and 
metallurgical  recoveries;  development  plans  for  processing  resources;  matters  relating  to  proposed 
exploration  or  expansion;  mining  operational  and  development  risks,  including  geotechnical  risks  and 
ground conditions; regulatory restrictions (including environmental regulatory restrictions and liability); 

 
risks related to international operations, including legal and political risk in Mongolia; risks related to the 
potential impact of global or national health concerns, including the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic; 
risks associated with changes in the attitudes of governments to foreign investment; risks associated with 
the  conduct  of  joint  ventures;  inability  to  upgrade  Inferred  mineral  resources  to  Indicated  or  Measured 
mineral  resources;  inability  to  convert  mineral  resources  to  mineral  reserves;  conclusions  of  economic 
evaluations;  fluctuations  in  commodity  prices  and  demand;  changing  foreign  exchange  rates;  the 
speculative  nature  of  mineral  exploration;  the  global  economic  climate;  dilution;  share  price  volatility; 
activities, actions or assessments by Rio Tinto, Turquoise Hill or OTLLC and by government authorities 
including  the  Government  of  Mongolia;  the  availability  of  funding  on  reasonable  terms;  the  impact  of 
changes  in  interpretation  to  or  changes  in  enforcement  of  laws,  regulations  and  government  practices, 
including laws, regulations and government practices with respect to mining, foreign investment, royalties 
and taxation; the terms and timing of obtaining necessary environmental and other government approvals, 
consents  and  permits;  the  availability  and  cost  of  necessary  items  such  as  water,  skilled  labour, 
transportation  and  appropriate  smelting  and  refining  arrangements;  unanticipated  reclamation  expenses; 
changes to assumptions as to the availability of electrical power, and the power rates used in operating cost 
estimates and financial analyses; changes to assumptions as to salvage values; ability to maintain the social 
licence to operate; accidents, labour disputes and other risks of the mining industry; global climate change; 
global conflicts; title disputes; limitations on insurance coverage; competition; loss of key employees; cyber 
security incidents; misjudgements in the course of preparing forward-looking statements; as well as those 
factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s AIF, filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this 
annual report on Form 40-F and incorporated herein by reference. Although the Company has attempted to 
identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those 
described in forward-looking statements and information, there may be other factors that cause actions, 
events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-
looking statements and information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ 
materially from those anticipated in such statements and information. Except as required under applicable 
securities legislation, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise forward-looking 
statements  and  information,  whether  as  a  result  of  new  information,  future  events,  or  otherwise.  
Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements and information. 

NOTE TO UNITED STATES READERS 
DIFFERENCES IN UNITED STATES AND CANADIAN REPORTING PRACTICES 

The Company is permitted, under the multi-jurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States 
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”  or “Commission”), to prepare this Annual Report in 
accordance  with  Canadian  disclosure  requirements,  which  differ  from  those  of  the  United  States.  The 
Company has prepared its financial statements, which are filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this Annual Report and 
incorporated by reference herein, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), 
as  issued  by  the  International  Accounting  Standards  Board  and  they  are  not  comparable  to  financial 
statements of United States companies.   

CAUTIONARY NOTE TO UNITED STATES INVESTORS 

The  Company’s  AIF,  filed  as  Exhibit  99.1  to  this  Annual  Report  on  Form  40-F  and  management’s 
discussion and analysis for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed as Exhibit 99.3 to this Annual 
Report on Form 40-F have been prepared in accordance with the requirements  of the securities laws in 
effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of United States securities laws.   

All mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates included in this Annual Report on Form 40-F and the 
documents  incorporated  by  reference  herein  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  Canadian  National 
Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”), which incorporates by 
reference  the  definitions  of  the  terms  ascribed  by  the  Canadian  Institute  of  Mining,  Metallurgy  and 
Petroleum  (the  “CIM”)  in  the  CIM  Definition  Standards  on  Mineral  Resources  and  Mineral  Reserves, 

 
 
 
 
 
 
adopted  by  the  CIM  Council,  as  amended.  NI  43-101  is  a  rule  developed  by  the  Canadian  Securities 
Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical 
information concerning mineral properties. NI 43-101 differs significantly from the disclosure requirements 
of the SEC generally applicable to U.S. companies.  

Accordingly,  descriptions  of  mineral  deposits  contained  in  this  Annual  Report  and  the  documents 
incorporated  by  reference  herein  may  not  be  comparable  to  similar  information  made  public  by  U.S. 
companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under the United States federal securities 
laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. 

The  SEC  has  adopted  amendments  to  its  disclosure  rules  to  modernize  the  mineral  property  disclosure 
requirements for issuers whose securities are registered with the SEC. These amendments became effective 
February  25,  2019  (the  “SEC  Modernization  Rules”)  and,  following  a  transition  period,  the  SEC 
Modernization Rules have replaced the historical property disclosure requirements for mining registrants 
that are included in SEC Industry Guide 7. As a “foreign private issuer” (as such term is defined in Rule 
3b-4 under the Exchange Act) that files its annual report on Form 40-F with the SEC pursuant to the U.S.-
Canada  Multijurisdictional  Disclosure  System  (“MJDS”),  the  Company  is  not  required  to  provide 
disclosure  on  its  mineral  properties  under  the  SEC  Modernization  Rules  and  will  continue  to  provide 
disclosure  under  NI  43-101  and  CIM.  If  the  Company  ceases  to  be  a  foreign  private  issuer  or  loses  its 
eligibility to file its annual report on Form 40-F pursuant to the MJDS, then the Company will be subject 
to the SEC Modernization Rules, which differ from the requirements of NI 43-101 and CIM. 

ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM 

The Company’s AIF for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Annual 
Report and incorporated by reference herein.

of the United States and Canada that are not described in this Annual Report.  

TAX MATTERS 

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures 

At the end of the period covered by this Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, an 
evaluation  was  carried  out  under  the  supervision  of,  and  with  the  participation  of,  the  Company’s 
management, including its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the 
effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in 
Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act).  Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and 
CFO have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to give reasonable assurance 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the 
Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the 
SEC’s  rules  and  forms,  and  (ii)  accumulated  and  communicated  to  management,  including  its  principal 
executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow 
timely decisions regarding required disclosure. 

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting 

The Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, is responsible for establishing and 
maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”), as such term is defined in Rules 
13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s ICFR is a process designed to provide 
reasonable  assurance  regarding  the  reliability  of  financial  reporting  and  the  preparation  of  consolidated 
financial  statements  for  external  purposes  in  accordance  with  IFRS,  as  issued  by  the  International 
Accounting Standards Board.  The Company's ICFR includes policies and procedures that: pertain to the 
maintenance  of  records  that,  in  reasonable  detail  accurately  and  fairly  reflect  the  transactions  and 
disposition of assets; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit 
preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS, as issued by the International 
Accounting Standards Board, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with 
authorization of management and directors of the Company; and provide reasonable assurance regarding 
prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a 
material effect on the consolidated financial statements. 

Because of their inherent limitations, ICFR can provide only reasonable assurance and may not prevent or 
detect  misstatements.  Furthermore,  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. 

The Company's management (with the participation of the CEO and the CFO) conducted an evaluation of 
the  effectiveness  of  the  Company’s  ICFR  as  of  December  31,  2021.  This  evaluation  was  based  on  the 
criteria set forth in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring 
Organizations  of  the  Treadway  Commission.  Based  on  its  assessment,  management  concluded  that  the 
Company’s ICFR was not effective as at December 31, 2021, and there was a material weakness in the 
Company’s ICFR relating to operations.  

The  Public  Company  Accounting  Oversight  Board  defines  a  “material  weakness”  as  a  deficiency,  or  a 
combination of deficiencies, in ICFR, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement 
of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. 
Management  identified  the  following  material  weakness  relating  to  operations,  which  existed  as  of 
December 31, 2021: 

  Evidence  of  testing  of  controls,  policies  and  procedures  was  not  sufficiently  documented  and 

retained.     

While  management  does  perform  periodic  testing  of  specific  controls  and  procedures,  the  absence  of 
sufficient documented evidence of testing resulted in management being unable to determine that ICFR as 
a whole is effective.  

To  address  the  material  weakness,  management  performed  additional  analyses  and  other  procedures  to 
ensure  that  the  consolidated  financial  statements  fairly  present,  in  all  material  respects,  the  Company’s 
financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Accordingly, management 
believes that the consolidated financial statements fairly present, in all material respects, the Company’s 
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. 

In addition, no significant deficiencies relating to the design of ICFR were identified. 

As  a  result  of  the  material  weakness  described  above,  the  Company’s  auditor  did  not  have  sufficient 
appropriate  evidence  of  testing  to  provide  a  basis  for  an  opinion  on  ICFR  and  accordingly  issued  a 
disclaimer of opinion on the Company’s ICFR.  

 
 
 
Remediation 

In response to the material weakness described above, the Company will be implementing a remediation 
plan to address the material weakness which will include measures such as hiring an independent third-
party internal controls consultant to assist with our internal controls testing, testing documentation retention, 
and other internal control enhancements.    

The  Company  will  continue  to  monitor  and  evaluate  the  effectiveness  of  the  Company’s  ICFR  on  an 
ongoing basis and if the remediation plan is not sufficient to eliminate the material weakness, the Company 
will consider what additional actions would be required. 

Auditor’s Attestation Report  

Davidson & Company LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, has issued a disclaimer of opinion on the 
Company’s  ICFR  which  accompanies  the  Company’s  audited  consolidated  financial  statements  for  the 
years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 included as Exhibit 99.2 to this Annual Report.  

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting 

There have been no changes in the Company’s ICFR during its fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 that 
have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s ICFR.   

AUDIT COMMITTEE 

The  Company  has  a  separately  designated  standing  Audit  Committee  established  in  accordance  with 
Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act.  The Company’s Audit Committee is comprised of Anna El-Erian 
(chair), Michael Price and James Harris. 

In the opinion of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), all members of the Audit Committee 
are independent, based on the criteria for independence prescribed by Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act and 
Section  803  of  the  NYSE  American  Company  Guide,  and  are  financially  literate,  meaning  each  such 
member has the ability to read and understand a set of financial statements that present a breadth and level 
of  complexity  of  the  issues  that  can  reasonably  be  expected  to  be  raised  by  the  Company’s  financial 
statements. 

Audit Committee Financial Expert 

The Company’s Board has determined that Anna El-Erian qualifies as a financial expert (as defined in Item 
407(d)(5)(ii)  of  Regulation  S-K  under  the  Exchange  Act)  and  is  independent  (as  determined  under 
Exchange Act Rule 10A-3). 

The SEC has indicated that the designation or identification of a person as an audit committee financial 
expert does not make such person an “expert” for any purpose, impose any duties, obligations or liability 
on such person that are greater than those imposed on members of the audit committee and the board of 
directors who do not carry this designation or identification, or affect the duties, obligations or liability of 
any other member of the audit committee or board of directors.
