Vista GoldFINANCIAL REVIEW Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2021 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF RADIUS GOLD INC. Opinion We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Radius Gold Inc. (the "Company"), which comprise: the consolidated statements of financial position as at December 31, 2021 and 2020; the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss for the years then ended; the consolidated statements of changes in equity for the years then ended; the consolidated statements of cash flows for the years then ended; and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2021 and 2020, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). Basis for Opinion We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Other Information Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises Management’s Discussion and Analysis. Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. We obtained Management's Discussion and Analysis prior to the date of this auditors' report. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process. Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors' report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern. 2 Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditors' report is Michelle Chi Wai So.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) 1. CORPORATE INFORMATION Radius Gold Inc. (the “Company”) was formed by the amalgamation of Radius Explorations Ltd. and PilaGold Inc. effective on July 1, 2004 under the laws of British Columbia. The Company is engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties and investment in companies which hold mineral property interests. The address of the Company’s head office and principal place of business is 650 – 200 Burrard Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada V6C 3L6. 2. BASIS OF PREPARATION These consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Statement of Compliance These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The accounting policies set out in Note 3 have been applied consistently by the Company and its subsidiaries to all periods presented. Basis of Measurement These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments measured at fair value. In addition, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars (“CDN”), which is the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ functional currency. The preparation of financial statements in compliance with IFRS requires management to make certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 4. At the time these consolidated financial statements were prepared, the COVID-19 pandemic continued to cause significant disruptions to the global economy and increased volatility in the global financial markets. While the COVID- 19 pandemic has not significantly impacted the Company’s operations during the 2021 fiscal year, the extent to which COVID-19 may adversely impact the Company’s business and financing opportunities going forward will depend on future developments such as the geographic spread of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, travel restrictions and social distancing at the properties, business closures or business disruptions, and the effectiveness of actions taken in Canada and other countries to contain and treat the disease. 8 RADIUS GOLD INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all years presented in these consolidated financial statements. a) Basis of Consolidation These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. A wholly owned subsidiary is an entity in which the Company has control, directly or indirectly, where control is defined as the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an enterprise so as to obtain benefits from its activities. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation. Subsidiaries are deconsolidated from the date control ceases. Details of the Company’s principal subsidiaries at December 31, 2021 and 2020 are as follows: Name Minerales Sierra Pacifico S.A. Radius Gold (U.S.) Inc. Geometales Del Norte-Geonorte Radius (Cayman) Inc. b) Revenue Recognition Place of Incorporation Guatemala Nevada, USA Mexico Cayman Islands Interest % 100% 100% 100% 100% Principal Activity Exploration company Exploration company Exploration company Investment Holding company The Company earns revenue from royalty agreements and is based on amounts contractually due. Royalty revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable when the Company can reliably estimate the amount, pursuant to the terms of the royalty agreement. For royalty interests, revenue recognition generally occurs in the month of production from the royalty property. Royalty revenue may be subject to adjustment upon final settlement of estimated metal prices, weights, and assays. Adjustments recorded upon final settlement are offset against revenue when incurred. Variations between the estimated price recorded upon production and the actual final price set upon final settlement are caused by changes in market commodity prices, and result in an embedded derivative in the receivable. The embedded derivative is recorded at fair value each period until final settlement occurs, with changes in fair value classified as provisional price adjustments and included as a component of royalty revenue. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, there was no embedded derivative. c) Investment in Associate Where the Company has significant influence over the financial and operating policy decisions of another entity, it is classified as an associate. Associates are initially recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost. The Company's share of post-acquisition profits and losses is recognized in profit or loss, except that losses in excess of the Company’s investment in the associate are not recognized unless there is an obligation to fund those losses. Profits and losses arising on transactions between the Company and its associates are recognized only to the extent of unrelated investors' interests in the associate. The investor's share in the associate's profits and losses resulting from these transactions is eliminated against the carrying value of the associate. Any premium paid for an associate above the fair value of the Company's share of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired is capitalized and included in the carrying amount of the associate. Adjustments to the carrying amount may also be necessary for changes in the Company's proportionate interest in the associate arising from changes in the associate's other comprehensive income. Such adjustments to the carrying amount are charged to operations as a gain or loss on dilution in the associate. Where there is objective evidence that the investment in an associate has been impaired, the carrying amount of the investment is tested for impairment in the same way as other non-financial assets. 9 RADIUS GOLD INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d) d) Foreign Currency Translation The functional and presentation currency of the Company and its principal subsidiaries is the Canadian dollar. Transactions denominated in a currency other than an entity’s functional currency are translated as follows: unsettled monetary items denominated in a foreign currency are translated into Canadian dollars at exchange rates prevailing at the date of the statement of financial position and non-monetary items are translated at exchange rates prevailing when the assets were acquired or obligations incurred. Foreign currency denominated revenue and expense items are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the transaction date. Gains or losses arising from the translations are included in profit or loss. e) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash at banks and on hand, and other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change of value. f) Mineral Property and Royalty Interests Exploration and evaluation assets Acquisition costs for exploration and evaluation assets are capitalized and include the cash consideration paid and the fair value of common shares issued on acquisition, at the earlier of the date the counterparty’s performance is complete or the share issuance date. Exploration expenditures, net of recoveries, are charged to operations as incurred. After a property is determined by management to be commercially feasible, exploration and development expenditures on the property will be capitalized. On transfer to development properties, capitalized exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment. Options are exercisable entirely at the discretion of the optionee and amounts received from optionees in connection with option agreements are credited against the capitalized acquisition costs classified as exploration and evaluation assets on the consolidated statement of financial position, with amounts received in excess credited to gain from mineral property option agreements in profit or loss. Where the Company has entered into option agreements to acquire interests in exploration and evaluation assets that provide for periodic payments or periodic share issuances, amounts unpaid and unissued are not recorded as liabilities since they are payable and issuable entirely at the Company’s option. Option payments are recorded as exploration and evaluation costs when the payments are made or received and the share issuances are recorded as exploration and evaluation costs using the fair market value of the Company’s common shares at the earlier of the date the counterparty’s performance is complete or the share issuance date. The Company is in the process of exploring and developing its exploration and evaluation assets and has not yet determined the amount of reserves available. Management reviews the carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets on a periodic basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, the Company will test the asset for impairment based upon a variety of factors, including current exploration results, the prospect of further work being carried out by the Company, the assessment of future probability of profitable revenues from the asset or from the sale of the asset. Amounts shown for exploration and evaluation assets represent costs incurred to date, net of write-downs and recoveries, and are not intended to represent present or future values. Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are expensed or capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations and which do not contribute to current or future revenue generation are expensed. Liabilities are recorded when environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. Generally, the timing of these accruals would be when the actual environmental disturbance occurs. 10 RADIUS GOLD INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d) f) Mineral Property and Royalty Interests (cont’d) Royalties Royalty interests consist of acquired royalties in producing and exploration and evaluation stage properties. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depletion and depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Producing properties are those that have generated revenue from steady-state operations for the Company. Exploration and evaluation stage properties represent early stage exploration properties that are speculative and are expected to require more than two years to generate revenue, if ever, or are currently not active. Producing royalty interests are recorded at cost and capitalized in accordance with IAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment. Producing royalty interests are depleted using the units-of-production method over the life of the property to which the interest relates, which is estimated using available estimates of proven and probable reserves specifically associated with the properties. Management relies on information available to it under contracts with the operators and/or public disclosures for information on proven and probable reserves and resources from the operators of the producing royalty interest. Royalty interests for exploration and evaluation assets are recorded at cost and capitalized in accordance with IFRS 6, Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources. Acquisition costs of exploration and evaluation royalty interests are capitalized and are not depleted until such time as revenue-generating activities begin. g) Property, Equipment and Amortization Recognition and Measurement On initial recognition, property and equipment are valued at cost, being the purchase price and directly attributable costs of acquisition required to bring the asset to the location and condition necessary to be capable of operating in a manner intended by the Company, including appropriate borrowing costs and the estimated present value of any future unavoidable costs of dismantling and removing items. The corresponding liability is recognized within provisions. Property and equipment is subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization, less any accumulated impairment losses, with the exception of land, which is not amortized. When parts of an item of property and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property and equipment. Gains and Losses Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount, that are recognized net within other income in profit or loss. Amortization Amortization is recognized in profit or loss and property and equipment is amortized over their estimated useful lives using the following methods: Trucks Computer equipment Furniture and equipment Geophysical equipment Field equipment 4 – 8 years straight-line 25% –50% declining balance 20% declining balance 20% declining balance 30% declining balance 11 RADIUS GOLD INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d) h) Right-of-Use Assets Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are initially recorded at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability and any initial direct costs incurred less any lease payments made at or before the initial recognition date. ROU assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset if the Company expects to take ownership of the asset at the end of the lease term, or over the lease term if the Company does not expect to take ownership of the asset at the end of the lease term. The lease term includes periods covered by an option to extend if the Company’s intention is to exercise that option. ROU assets are periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for re-measurements of the lease obligation. i) Earnings/Loss per Share Basic earnings/loss per share is calculated by dividing the net earnings loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in earnings of the Company. For the year ended December 31, 2021, potentially dilutive common shares (relating to options outstanding at year-end) totaling 5,870,000 (2020: 5,595,000) were not included in the computation of earnings/loss per share, because their effect was anti-dilutive. As such, basic and diluted earnings and losses per share were the same for the periods presented. j) Income Taxes Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current and deferred tax are recognized in net loss/income except to the extent that it relates to a business combination or items recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive loss/income. Current income taxes are recognized for the estimated income taxes payable or receivable on taxable income or loss for the current year and any adjustment to income taxes payable in respect of previous years. Current income taxes are determined using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year-end date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized where the carrying amount of an asset or liability differs from its tax base, except for those taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill or on the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Recognition of deferred tax assets for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences is restricted to those instances where it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deferred tax asset can be utilized. At the end of each reporting year the Company reassesses unrecognized deferred tax assets. The Company recognizes a previously unrecognized deferred tax asset only to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. k) Share Capital Equity instruments are contracts that give a residual interest in the net assets of the Company. Financial instruments issued by the Company are classified as equity only to the extent that they do not meet the definition of a financial liability or financial asset. The Company’s common shares, share warrants, and options are classified as equity instruments. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from proceeds. Warrants issued by the Company typically accompany an issuance of shares in the Company (a “Unit”) and entitle the warrant holder to exercise the warrants for a stated price and a stated number of common shares in the Company. The fair value of the Unit’s components sold is measured using the residual value approach. The proceeds received are first allocated to common shares at the time the Units are priced, and any excess is allocated to warrants. 12 RADIUS GOLD INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d) l) Share-based Payments Where equity-settled share options are awarded to employees, the fair value of the options at the date of grant is charged to profit or loss over the vesting period. Performance vesting conditions are taken into account by adjusting the number of equity instruments expected to vest at each reporting date so that, ultimately, the cumulative amount recognized over the vesting period is based on the number of options that eventually vest. As long as all other vesting conditions are satisfied, a charge is made irrespective of whether these vesting conditions are satisfied. The cumulative expense is not adjusted for failure to achieve a market vesting condition or where a non-vesting condition is not satisfied. Where terms and conditions of options are modified before they vest, the increase in the fair value of the options, measured immediately before and after the modification, is also charged to profit or loss over the remaining vesting period. Where equity instruments are granted to employees, they are recorded at the fair value of the equity instrument granted at the grant date. The grant date fair value is recognized in profit or loss over the vesting period, described as the period during which all the vesting conditions are to be satisfied. Where equity instruments are granted to non-employees, they are recorded at the fair value of the goods or services received in profit or loss. Options or warrants granted related to the issuance of shares are recorded as a reduction of share capital. When the value of goods or services received in exchange for the share-based payment cannot be reliably estimated, the fair value is measured by use of a valuation model or the fair value of the shares granted. All equity-settled share-based payments are reflected in other equity reserve, until exercised. Upon exercise, shares are issued from treasury and the amount reflected in other equity reserve is credited to share capital, adjusted for any consideration paid. Where a grant of options is cancelled or settled during the vesting period, excluding forfeitures when vesting conditions are not satisfied, the Company immediately accounts for the cancellation as an acceleration of vesting and recognizes the amount that otherwise would have been recognized for services received over the remainder of the vesting period. Any payment made to the employee on the cancellation is accounted for as the repurchase of an equity interest except to the extent the payment exceeds the fair value of the equity instrument granted, measured at the repurchase date. Any such excess is recognized as an expense. m) Provisions Rehabilitation Provision The Company is subject to various government laws and regulations relating to environmental disturbances caused by exploration and evaluation activities. The Company records the present value of the estimated costs of legal and constructive obligations required to restore the exploration sites in the year in which the obligation is incurred. The nature of the rehabilitation activities may include restoration, reclamation and revegetation of the affected exploration sites. The rehabilitation provision generally arises when the environmental disturbance is subject to government laws and regulations. When the liability is recognized, the present value of the estimated costs is capitalized by increasing the carrying amount of the related exploration properties. Over time, the discounted liability is increased for the changes in present value based on current market discount rates and liability specific risks. As at December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had no significant asset retirement or rehabilitation obligations. Other Provisions Provisions are recognized where a legal or constructive obligation has been incurred as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefit will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. If material, provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation. The increase in any provision due to passage of time is recognized as accretion expense. 13 RADIUS GOLD INC.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d) n) Impairment of Non-Financial Assets Impairment tests on non-financial assets, including exploration and evaluation assets, are undertaken whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Where the carrying value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of value in use and fair value less costs of disposal, the asset is written down accordingly. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the impairment test is carried out on the asset’s cash-generating unit, which is the lowest group of assets in which the asset belongs for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets. An impairment loss is charged to profit or loss, except to the extent they reverse gains previously recognized in other comprehensive loss/income. o) Financial Instruments Financial Assets The Company recognizes a financial asset when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. The Company classifies financial assets at initial recognition as financial assets: measured at amortized cost, measured at fair value through other comprehensive income or measured at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets measured at amortized cost A financial asset that meets both of the following conditions is classified as a financial asset measured at amortized cost. - The Company’s business model for the such financial assets, is to hold the assets in order to collect contractual cash flows. - The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the amount outstanding. A financial asset measured at amortized cost is initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs directly attributable to the asset. After initial recognition, the carrying amount of the financial asset measured at amortized cost is determined using the effective interest method, net of impairment loss, if necessary. Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”) A financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income is recognized initially at fair value plus transaction costs directly attributable to the asset. After initial recognition, the asset is measured at fair value with changes in fair value included in other comprehensive income. Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) A financial asset measured at fair value through profit or loss is recognized initially at fair value with any associated transaction costs being recognized in profit or loss when incurred. Subsequently, the financial asset is re-measured at fair value, and a gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss in the reporting period in which it arises. The Company derecognizes a financial asset if the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or the Company transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. Any interests in transferred financial assets that are created or retained by the Company are recognized as a separate asset or liability. Gains and losses on derecognition are generally recognized in profit or loss. However, gains and losses on derecognition of financial assets classified as FVTOCI remain within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). 14 RADIUS GOLD INC.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d) o) Financial Instruments (cont’d) Financial Liabilities Financial liabilities are classified as amortized cost, based on the purpose for which the liability was incurred. These liabilities are initially recognized at fair value net of any transaction costs directly attributable to the issuance of the instrument and subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. This ensures that any interest expense over the period to repayment is at a constant rate on the balance of the liability carried in the statement of financial position. Interest expense in this context includes initial transaction costs and premiums payable on redemptions, as well as any interest or coupon payable while the liability is outstanding. Accounts payables represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of the period which are unpaid. Accounts payable amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within forty-five days of recognition. The Company has made the following designations of its financial instruments: Cash and cash equivalents Equity investments Derivative investments Receivables Deposits Accounts payable and accrued liabilities Lease liability FVTPL FVTOCI FVTPL Amortized cost Amortized cost Amortized cost Amortized cost p) Lease Liabilities The lease liability is measured at the present value of the expected lease payments over the lease term, discounted at the implicit rate in the lease; if the rate cannot be determined, the incremental borrowing rate of the asset or asset grouping is used. The lease liability is increased for the passage of time and payments on the lease are offset against the lease liability. The liability is subsequently re-measured when there is a change in the lease agreement, such as a change in future lease payments or if the Company decides to purchase, extend, or terminate the lease option. When the lease liability is re-measured, an adjustment is applied to the carrying value of the ROU asset. q) Standards, Amendments and Interpretations Not Yet Effective The Company has reviewed upcoming policies and determined that none are expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. 4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS The Company makes estimates and assumptions about the future that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. In the future, actual experience may differ from these estimates and assumptions. The effect of a change in an accounting estimate is recognized prospectively by including it in profit or loss in the period of the change, if the change affects that period only, or in the period of the change and future periods, if the change affects both. 15 RADIUS GOLD INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) 4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS (cont’d) The key areas of judgment applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities are as follows: a) Where the Company holds a material shareholding in an investment and has the power to exercise significant influence through common officers and board members, such an investment is treated as an associate. The Company can exercise significant influence over Rackla Metals Inc. (“Rackla”). b) The functional currency for each of the Company’s subsidiaries is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Determination of the functional currency may involve certain judgments to determine the primary economic environment and the Company reconsiders functional currency of its entities if there is a change in events and conditions which determined the primary economic environment. c) The application of the Company’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation assets and royalty interests requires judgment in determining whether it is likely that future economic benefits will flow to the Company. If, after exploration and evaluation assets are capitalized, information becomes available suggesting that the carrying amount of an exploration and evaluation asset may exceed its recoverable amount, the Company carries out an impairment test at the cash-generating unit or group of cash-generating units level in the year the new information becomes available. d) The determination of when receivables are impaired requires significant judgment as to their collectability. e) The Company applies judgment in determining whether a lease contract contains an identified asset, whether they have the right to control the asset, and the lease term. The lease term is based on considering facts and circumstances, both qualitative and quantitative, that can create an economic incentive to exercise renewal options. Management considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise an extension option, or not to exercise a termination option. f) Although the Company has taken steps to identify any decommissioning liabilities related to mineral properties in which it has an interest, there may be unidentified decommissioning liabilities present. The key estimates applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities are as follows: a) The Company is subject to income tax in several jurisdictions and significant judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes. During the ordinary course of business, there are transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. As a result, the Company recognizes tax liabilities based on estimates of whether additional taxes and interest will be due. These tax liabilities are recognized when, despite the Company's belief that its tax return positions are supportable, the Company believes that certain positions are likely to be challenged and may not be fully sustained upon review by tax authorities. The Company believes that its accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open audit years based on its assessment of many factors including past experience and interpretations of tax law. This assessment relies on estimates and assumptions and may involve a series of complex judgments about future events. To the extent that the final tax outcome of these matters is different than the amounts recorded, such differences will impact income tax expense in the period in which such determination is made. b) In estimating the fair value of share-based payments and derivative instruments, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, management is required to make certain assumptions and estimates. Changes in assumptions used to estimate fair value could result in materially different results. c) The Company uses estimation in determining the incremental borrowing rate used to measure the lease liability. Where the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the discount rate of the lease obligations is estimated using a discount rate similar to the Company’s specific borrowing rate. 16 RADIUS GOLD INC.

MINERAL PROPERTY AND ROYALTY INTERESTS (cont’d) Guatemala i) Southeast Guatemala Ag-Au Epithermal Fields (formerly called Banderas) The Company’s 100% owned land holdings in southeast Guatemala as at December 31, 2021 consist of 44 concessions (one granted exploration licence, forty exploration applications, two exploitation applications, and one reconnaissance application) filed with the Guatemala Ministry of Energy and Mines. The two exploitation applications were filed in order to convert one previously granted exploration licence to exploitation; until the exploitation licences are granted, the granted exploration licence remains in place. In May 2020, the Company signed an agreement whereby it granted to Volcanic the exclusive option (the “Option”) to acquire a 60% interest in the Company’s granted exploration licence (known as the Holly and Banderas gold- silver properties) (the “Properties”). Volcanic may exercise the Option by raising a minimum $3.0 million financing (completed in 2020) and spending US$7.0 million on exploration of the Properties within 48 months from the date drilling permits for the Properties are granted (granted in March 2021). An initial US$1.0 million must be spent on exploration within 12 months of receiving the required drill permits (incurred), including a minimum 3,000 metres of drilling (completed). Volcanic was also required to make a cash payment to the Company of $100,000 which was received during the 2020 fiscal year and recorded as a gain on mineral property option agreements. Upon exercise of the Option, Volcanic will enter into a standard 60/40 joint venture with the Company in order to further develop the Properties. Volcanic also has the exclusive right for 24 months following the execution of the Option to evaluate the Company’s other land holdings in Guatemala and to enter into an agreement to acquire an interest in any of such other properties on reasonable mutually agreed upon terms. ii) Tambor Project Royalty In 2012, the Company sold its interest in its subsidiary, Exploraciones Mineras de Guatemala S.A., which holds the Tambor gold project, to KCA, giving KCA a 100% interest in the project. KCA agreed to make royalty payments to the Company, upon commercial production, based on the then price of gold and the number of ounces produced from the property. Commercial production commenced in December 2014. In May 2016, KCA informed the Company that mining operations were suspended by the Supreme Court of Guatemala due to a lack of consultation by the Guatemalan Ministry of Mines with local indigenous people when the mine was permitted in 2011. To date, the Supreme Court has not made a decision on when the mine may re-open. There was no royalty income recognized for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. As at December 31, 2021, all gold sales subject to the Company’s royalty had been final settled and the balance that remained unpaid to the Company was $784,180. Due to the uncertainty as to when the mine may re-open and when the amount owing by KCA to the Company will be paid, a provision of $784,180 against the receivable amount was charged to operations in 2016. 24 RADIUS GOLD INC.

MINERAL PROPERTY AND ROYALTY INTERESTS (cont’d) USA Bald Peak Property In 2017, the Company acquired a 100% interest in the Bald Peak gold property from Nevada Select Royalty, Inc. (“Nevada Select”) in consideration of a cash payment to Nevada Select of $46,032 (US$35,115), the granting to Nevada Select and/or a former property owner of a total 3% NSR royalty and making annual advance royalty payments to Nevada Select of US$25,000. The advance royalty payments were to become payable on the date the Company received a drill permit for the property and on each annual anniversary thereof so long as the Company held title to the property. The Company had the right to reduce either royalty by 1% by paying US$1.0 million to Nevada Select, and/or US$500,000 to the former owner. In 2017, the Company staked an additional 113 unpatented mining claims at a cost of $71,784, increasing the land position of the Bald Peak Property to 140 unpatented mining claims in Mineral County, Nevada and eleven unpatented mining claims and one mineral prospecting licence in Mono County, California. During the 2020 fiscal year, the Company allowed a portion of the staked Mineral County claims to lapse, reducing the unpatented mining claims in Nevada from 140 to 50. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company decided it will not renew all claims comprising the Bald Peak Property, and as a result, the Company wrote off acquisition costs totaling $117,816 during the year ended December 31, 2021. 13. COMMITMENTS The Company has entered into an operating lease agreement for its office premises. The Company also rents space to other companies related by common directors and officers on a month-to-month basis, the amounts of which are netted against rental expense; however, there are no commitments from these companies and thus the amounts presented below are the gross commitments. The annual commitments under the lease are as follows: 2022 2023 2024 $ 130,035 131,952 133,869 $ 395,856 For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company received a total of $96,255 (2020: $90,708) from those companies which share office space with the Company. 25 RADIUS GOLD INC.

The weighted average remaining contractual life of the options outstanding at December 31, 2021 is 5.21 years (2020: 5.93 years). Options Issued to Employees The fair value at grant date is determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date, the expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option. Options Issued to Non-Employees Options issued to non-employees are measured based on the fair value of the goods or services received, at the date of receiving those goods or services. If the fair value of the goods or services received cannot be estimated reliably, the options are measured by determining the fair value of the options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The model inputs for options granted during the year ended December 31, 2021 included: Grant date Expiry date Feb 11, 2021 Feb 10, 2031 Mar 4, 2021 Mar 3, 2031 Oct 26, 2021 Oct 25, 2031 Share price at grant date Exercise price Risk-free interest rate Expected life Volatility factor Dividend yield $0.35 $0.23 $0.33 $0.34 $0.24 $0.34 1.04% 10 years 1.54% 10 years 1.68% 10 years 81% 81% 78% 0% 0% 0% 27 RADIUS GOLD INC.

SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS (cont’d) b) Fair Value of Options Granted During the Year (cont’d) Options Issued to Non-Employees (cont’d) The model inputs for options granted during the year ended December 31, 2020 included: Grant date Expiry date Mar 16, 2020 Mar 15, 2030 Dec 9, 2020 Dec 8, 2030 Share price at grant date $0.14 $0.30 Exercise price $0.15 $0.27 Risk-free interest rate Expected life Volatility factor Dividend yield 0.84% 10 years 0.81% 10 years 81% 81% 0% 0% The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility (based on the remaining contractual life of the options), adjusted for any expected changes to future volatility due to publicly available information. The risk-free rate of return is the yield on a zero-coupon Canadian Treasury Bill of a term consistent with the assumed option life. The expected average option term is the average expected period to exercise, based on the historical activity patterns for each individually vesting tranche. Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected price volatility. Changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate and, therefore, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the Company’s stock options. c) Expenses Arising from Share-based Payment Transactions Total expenses arising from the share-based payment transactions recognized during the year ended December 31, 2021 as part of share-based compensation expense were $174,845 (2020: $55,694) (Note 17). 28 RADIUS GOLD INC.

SEGMENTED INFORMATION Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. All of the Company’s operations are within the mining sector relating to mineral exploration. Due to the geographic and political diversity, the Company’s exploration operations are decentralized whereby exploration managers are responsible for business results and regional corporate offices provide support to the exploration programs in addressing local and regional issues. The Company’s operations are therefore segmented on a district basis. The Company’s assets were located in Canada, USA, Guatemala, Mexico, and Cayman Islands.

General Objectives, Policies and Processes The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the determination of the Company’s risk management objectives and policies and, whilst retaining ultimate responsibility for them, it has delegated the authority for designing and operating processes that ensure the effective implementation of the objectives and policies to the Company’s finance function. The Board of Directors receive periodic reports through which it reviews the effectiveness of the processes put in place and the appropriateness of the objectives and policies it sets. The overall objective of the Board is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the Company’s competitiveness and flexibility. Further details regarding these policies are set out below. a) Market Risk Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market prices are comprised of three types of risk: foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, and equity price risk. Foreign Currency Risk Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currencies through its operations in foreign countries. The Company monitors this exposure but has no hedge positions. As at December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company is exposed to currency risk through the following financial assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the Canadian dollar: December 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 US Dollar (CDN equivalent) $ 404,866 - (27,883) Mexican Peso Guatemala Quetzal (CDN equivalent) (CDN equivalent) $ 2,341 6,625 - $ 14,507 - (1,050) US Dollar (CDN equivalent) $ 130,620 11,300 (10,557) Mexican Peso Guatemala Quetzal (CDN equivalent) (CDN equivalent) $ 1,128 5,235 - $ 2,843 - (2,780) $ 376,983 $ 8,966 $ 13,457 $ 131,363 $ 6,363 $ 63 Cash Receivables Current liabilities Based on the above net exposures at December 31, 2021, a 10% depreciation or appreciation of the above currencies against the Canadian dollar would result in approximately a $39,900 (2020: $13,800) increase or decrease in profit or loss, respectively. 33 RADIUS GOLD INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) 19. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT (cont’d) General Objectives, Policies and Processes (cont’d) a) Market Risk (cont’d) Commodity Price Risk The Company’s royalty revenue has been derived from a royalty interest that is based on the extraction and sale of gold. Factors beyond the control of the Company may affect the marketability of gold discovered or extracted. Gold prices have historically fluctuated widely. Consequently, the economic viability of the Company’s royalty interest cannot be accurately predicted and may be adversely affected by fluctuations in gold prices. The Company has not engaged in any hedging activities. The Company is not exposed to commodity price risk as the Company has not earned any royalty revenue during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. The Company does not have any borrowings. Interest rate risk is limited to potential decreases on the interest rate offered on cash held with chartered Canadian financial institutions. The Company considers this risk to be limited as it holds no assets or liabilities subject to variable rates of interest. Equity Price Risk Equity price risk is the uncertainty associated with the valuation of assets arising from changes in equity markets. The Company’s equity investments consisting of common shares and derivative investments consisting of share purchase warrants are exposed to significant equity price risk due to the potentially volatile and speculative nature of the businesses in which the investments are held. The Company’s equity investments are monitored by the Board with decisions on sale or exercise taken by Management. A 10% decrease in fair value of the shares and warrants would result in an approximate $74,000 (2020: $90,000) decrease in comprehensive income and shareholders’ equity. b) Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its cash and cash equivalents, equity investments, derivative investments and receivables. The Company limits exposure to credit risk by maintaining its cash and cash equivalents with large financial institutions. The Company does not have cash and cash equivalents or equity investments that are invested in asset based commercial paper. For advances and other receivables, the Company estimates, on a continuing basis, the probable losses and provides a provision for losses based on the estimated realizable value. c) Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to provide reasonable assurance that it will have sufficient funds to meet liabilities when due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows required by operations and anticipated investing and financing activities. At December 31, 2021, the Company had working capital of $2.2 million (2020: $3.1 million) available to apply against short-term business requirements. All of the Company’s financial liabilities have contractual maturities of less than 45 days and are subject to normal trade terms with the expectation of the Company’s lease liability which matures based on the lease agreement (Note 13). Determination of Fair value Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability. Management considers that due to their short-term nature the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities, which include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, deposits, and accounts payables and accrued liabilities are assumed to approximate their fair values. 34 RADIUS GOLD INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) 19. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT (cont’d) Determination of Fair value (cont’d) The fair value investments in associate are detailed in the following table: Financial assets Shares held in Rackla (Note 11) Fair Value Hierarchy December 31, 2021 Book value December 31, 2021 Fair value $ 1 $ 1,609,176 Financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value are grouped in Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable: Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). The equity investments are based on quoted prices and are therefore considered to be Level 1. The derivative instruments are based on inputs other than quoted prices and therefore considered to be Level 3. The lease liability is based on prices and therefore considered to be Level 2. As of December 31, 2021, there was no embedded derivative on royalty income receivables derived from gold prices to include as a Level 2 measurement and therefore no fair value measurement was necessary. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2, or 3 during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. 20. 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 advance its mineral properties. In order to facilitate the management of its capital requirements, the Company prepares periodic budgets that are updated as necessary. The Company manages its capital structure and adjusts it to effectively support the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. The properties in which the Company currently has a direct or indirect interest are in the exploration or development stage. As such the Company is dependent on external financing to fund its activities. In order to carry out the planned exploration and pay for general administrative costs, the Company will spend its existing working capital and raise additional amounts as needed. The Company will continue to assess new properties and seek to acquire an interest in additional properties if it feels there is sufficient geologic or economic potential and if it has adequate financial resources to do so. Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. The Company monitors its cash and cash equivalents, equity investments, derivative investments, common shares, warrants and stock options as capital. There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company’s investment policy is to hold cash in interest bearing bank accounts and highly liquid short-term interest-bearing investments with maturities of one year or less and which can be liquidated at any time without penalties. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is subject to externally imposed capital requirements and does not have exposure to asset-backed commercial paper or similar products. The Company expects its current capital resources to be sufficient to carry out its planned exploration programs and operating costs for the next twelve months. 35 RADIUS GOLD INC.

Property Interests Mexico – Amalia Project The Amalia Project comprises 10,250 hectares located in the Sierra Madre gold belt in the State of Chihuahua, Mexico. In June 2017, the Company signed a binding agreement with a private individual to option 380 hectares of the project area which is host to high grade epithermal silver-gold mineralization. Following the signing of the option agreement, the Company staked an additional 9,081 hectares surrounding the Amalia Project, covering three new regional target areas. In late 2019, the Company signed a binding agreement with a private family to option - 4 - the adjacent 800-hectare Palmillas Property which hosts high-grade epithermal gold-silver mineralization. The Palmillas concessions cover the northeastern and southwestern strike extension of the Amalia fault zone. The Amalia Project is located approximately 25 kilometres SW of the historic Guadalupe y Calvo mining district in Chihuahua, Mexico. During due diligence evaluation the Company’s geologists sampled bonanza grade outcrop containing 20.4 g/t Au and 5,360 g/t Ag from a 1.2 metre chip. The Company established a camp at Amalia and completed an initial exploration program comprising geological mapping, prospecting, and channel sampling of the three main targets: San Pedro, Guadalupe and Dulces. Epithermal Au-Ag mineralization was sampled by the Company in several veins, vein breccias and disseminated zones over 3.5 kilometres of strike length and a 600 metre vertical interval following the trace of the large regional Amalia fault zone. In July 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with Pan American Silver Corp. (“Pan American”) to drill and explore the Amalia Project – see “Pan American Option Terms” below. Addition of Palmillas Property / El Cuervo Target In late 2019, the Company signed a binding agreement with a private family to option the 800-hectare Palmillas Property which hosts high-grade epithermal gold-silver mineralization. The Palmillas concessions are immediately adjoining the Amalia Project and cover the northeastern and southwestern strike extension of the Amalia fault zone. Pan American has elected to exercise its right to include the Palmillas Property within the Amalia Project joint venture. Pan American, as the operator will fund and manage the expanded project according to its option agreement with the Company. The Palmillas Property hosts multiple exploration targets, including El Cuervo and Palmillas. Phases 1 to 3 Drill Programs In October and November 2018, the Company conducted an initial 9 hole - 1,909 metre diamond core drill program at Amalia to test the three target zones across a strike length of 1.8 kilometres following the trace of the Amalia regional fault and associated surficial epithermal gold and silver mineralization. Five drill holes (AMDD-001 / 003 / 007 / 008 / 009) were drilled within the San Pedro structural corridor, intercepting gold and silver mineralization in all holes and defining a 650 metre strike length of epithermal banded veining, stockworks and multiphase breccia with significant gold and silver mineralization. A table of drill results is listed below. This initial drill program resulted in discovery hole AMDD-009 which intersected 26 metres at 7.80 g/t Au and 517 g/t Ag, including bonanza interval of 5 metres at 14.71 g/t Au and 1,378 g/t Ag. The Company commenced Stage 2 drilling at the San Pedro target in April 2019 completing six diamond holes, AMDD19-010 to AMDD19-015, totalling 1,743 metres. The Stage 2 drill program expanded multiphase gold and silver mineralization with high grade mineralized shoots expanded at San Pedro. Geological controls on the mineralization are complex with multiple events of gold and silver mineralization within veins, stockworks and hydrothermal breccias. The Amalia structure trends 320/60E and can be traced for several kilometres. The Amalia fault is a large regional fault zone separating Tertiary rhyolitic ignimbrites from the Late Cretaceous Tarahumara formation with gold and silver mineralization typically occurring within the hanging wall. High grade shoot control is still uncertain but appears to be located by cross faults. With Pan American as operator, a Phase 3 drill program at Amalia was conducted in October 2019. The drill program included holes AMDD19-016 to AMDD19-021. The program was successful in proving that the high- grade mineralized shoot continues with depth, up to 300 metres, and its lateral extents have been better defined. Drill holes AMD002 / 004 / 005 / 006 targeted mineralization at the Guadalupe and Dulces zones. These drill holes did not intercept significant gold/silver mineralization. The table below present the interesting results, with the highlighting indicate the high points. - 5 - Phase 4 Drill Program The Phase 4 drilling commenced in November 2020 and was designed to test down dip and lateral expansions of the high-grade gold and silver mineralization of the San Pedro structure that was previously defined by drilling Phases 1 to 3. On April 27, 2021, the Company announced the completion of the Phase 4 drill program with 10 diamond holes, AMDD20-022 to AMDD21-031, drilled totalling 4,385 metres. Significant results from the Phase 4 drilling include: DRILLHOLEFROM (m)TO (m)INTERVAL (m)EST.

The first shoot now appears to be closed off at depth and immediately adjacent. Phase 5 Drill Program Phase 5 drilling commenced in August 2021 at California and El Cuervo targets. To date, 3,814 metres of diamond core drilling in 14 drill holes have been completed at California, and 4,752 metres of diamond drilling in 12 drill holes have been completed at El Cuervo. California target drilling intersected multi-phase breccia and stock-work vein systems with significant widths (up to 50m) and high grades up to 4210 g/t Ag and 33.1 g/t Au (AMDD21-038). Drill platforms were located on 6 sections, spaced 200 metres apart. The drill program defined a coherent and robust silver gold mineralized system over 1 kilometre and to a depth of 300 metres. The California structure has been mapped over 2.8 kilometres. Mineralization is open in all directions. California drill testing was limited to pre-existing roads that allowed easy access. Further on strike, targets such as Oro Viejo, La Caverna, and California NW, are yet to be drill tested. At Oro Viejo, 1 kilometre northeast from the current drilling, high grade gold has been sampled in surface rock chips with assays up to 27 g/t gold. DRILLHOLEFROM (m)TO (m)INTERVAL (m)EST.

Drill core was cut in half using a rock saw with one half of the core then taken as a sample for analysis. Sample intervals are generally 1 metre intervals, producing samples of between 2 to 9 kilograms. Half-core samples are delivered to the ALS Geochemistry laboratory facilities in Chihuahua, Mexico. The samples are fire assayed for Au and are analysed for Ag and multi-elements using method code ME-ICP61 following a four-acid digestion. Over-limits are analysed using an appropriate method. Multi-element geochemical standards and blanks are routinely entered into the drill core sample stream to monitor laboratory performance. Quality control samples submitted to ALS were returned within acceptable limits. Pan American Option Terms Pursuant to an agreement signed in June 2018, Pan American has the option to earn up to an initial 65% interest in the Company’s Amalia Project and Palmillas Properties by making cash payments to the Company totaling US$1.5 million (of which US$800,000 has been received) and expending over four years US$2 million on exploration and reimbursement of the Company’s costs to maintain its option agreements with the owners of Amalia and Palmillas. Pan American may earn an additional 10% by advancing the property to preliminary feasibility. Mexico – Plata Verde Project In early 2020, the Company entered into an option agreement with a local concession holder to acquire a 100% interest in the Plata Verde Project which consisted of the 300 hectare Don Benja concession covering an historic silver mining camp located in Chihuahua, Mexico. The Plata Verde Project is located north of the Company’s Amalia Gold-Silver project and east of the historic Batopilas silver mining district (1708 to 1920) which reputedly produced over 300 million ounces of silver from high grade veins and structures. The property is accessible by road, with a one hour hike required to access the historic mines. The Company subsequently signed an option agreement with local concession holders to acquire the rights to the 500 hectare Don Jose concession that surrounds the 300 hectare Don Benja concession, bringing the Company’s holdings at Plata Verde to 800 hectares. The Don Jose concession has no exploration history and covers the same prospective rocks that host the Plata Verde silver mineralization. The Company has conducted limited prospecting and stream sediment geochemistry at Don Jose. When the Company’s geologists discovered Plata Verde Project, the property was accessed by a strenuous 6 hour hike and all supplies and samples for subsequent exploration programs were transported by mules. A local landowner has since constructed 4x4 road access to the property and has signed an agreement providing the Company with legal right of way and use of the road to access the property. At Plata Verde, the Company’s geologists re-discovered a large scale underground bulk mining operation where in the late 1800’s, historic miners hand excavated an extensive series of anastomosing caverns, producing silver bars at an associated smelter operation. The project was un-explored since the historic miners ceased their operations. - 10 - Initial phases of rock chip sampling by the Company returned widespread silver mineralization between 5 and 1,070 g/t Ag over a large area within the historic mines. Geological Model and Silver Mineralization At Plata Verde, the Company’s geological team completed several months of detailed underground mapping and sampling of the historic Mina Real and Mina Mojonera. Three distinct mineralization styles have been defined within the basaltic andesite volcanic host rock: 1. Multiple large scale breccia zones with chimney type structures up to 75 metre diameter and sampled on multiple mine levels. The breccias are cemented by massive to crustiform banded barite calcite with silver chlorides, sulphosalt minerals and native silver. 2. Fracture fill and stockwork silver mineralization occurs as massive to crustiform banded barite calcite with silver chlorides, sulphosalt minerals and native silver. 3. Disseminated style mineralization with fine silver sulphosalts disseminated within the volcanic host with little to no brecciation, veining or fracture fill. All three mineralization styles host significant silver grades, although the highest grades are related to intense brecciation and fracturing. Geological maps and sampling data are available at http://www.radiusgold.com/s/plata- verde.asp. In total, 255 2 x 2 metre panel samples were collected from the historic Mina Real and Mina Mojonera. Each mine covers a shallow dipping anastomosing sequence of mining areas on at least 3 levels with Mina Real covering approximately 200 x 200 metres and Mina Mojonera 150 x 150 metres. Results reported between 2 and 815 g/t Ag and averaging 185 g/t Ag. Samples were collected to represent all rock types and mineralization styles. Summary of underground rock chip sampling.

Regional Geology and Stream Sediments At Plata Verde, silver mineralization occurs as massive to crustiform banded barite calcite with silver chlorides, sulphosalt minerals and native silver infilling and cementing breccias and fractures within a basaltic/andesite extrusive volcanic. The basaltic/andesite host occurs at the base of the Upper Rhyolitic Volcanics of the Northern Sierra Madre. In general, the silver mineralization is covered by the overlying rhyolitic volcanics and is only exposed within the historic mines and at surface in a few areas along the length of a small creek. The Company conducted a geological mapping and stream sediment sampling program within the district which indicates that a north south orientated regional structural zone likely controls development of the mineralization at - 11 - Plata Verde. Stream sediment sampling at Plata Verde clearly identifies the creek where the historic mines are exposed. There are also strong silver stream sediment anomalies (several times higher than background) that indicate potential for further mineralization 300 metres to the east and 1,000 metres south of the known mines. Discussion and Exploration Targets During February 2021, the Company completed geophysical programs at Plata Verde, consisting of 7.5 line kilometre magnetic survey and 4.5 line kilometre IP/Resistivity survey conducted by consultants, Geofisica TMC. The program was designed to locate potential feeder systems below the historic silver mines and successfully identified compelling drill targets below the known mines. All relevant data and sections from the geophysical surveys are available on the Company’s website. The Company has defined two priority targets: 1) Extensions and repetitions of the shallow dipping large scale silver rich breccias, stockworks and disseminated silver mineralization exposed within the historic mines. 2) Sub-vertical feeder zones below the historic silver mines. In general, the silver mineralization is covered by the overlying rhyolitic volcanics and is only exposed within the historic mines and at surface in a few areas along the length of a small creek. The barite/silver chloride mineralization appears to be a late-stage low temperature mineralizing event with the source and feeder systems an attractive exploration target. Barite and silver chloride are often part of the upper levels or supergene zone around large silver deposits. The solubility of barite and silver chlorides is low, and hence the source zone is likely to be close by. Extensions of the known mineralization below the ignimbrite cover to the north, east and west are open. Potential feeder structures have been clearly defined by the recent geophysics. The Company has completed an environmental study in support of drill permits which have been granted. Management is currently evaluating options to fund drilling later this year. The Plata Verde Agreements The Company may earn a 100% interest in the 300 hectare Don Benja concession by making staged payments totalling US$801,000 over four years with the final payment equal to US$400,000 at the end of year four. US$61,000 has been paid to date. The owner retains a 1% NSR which the Company may buy back for US$1,000,000. The Company can earn a 100% interest in the 500 hectare Don Jose concession by making staged payments totalling US$500,000 over four years with a final payment of US$185,000 due at the end of year four. US$18,000 has been paid to date. The owner retains a 1% NSR which the Company can buy back for US$600,000. The Company is responsible for paying taxes owing on the properties of up to US$138,000 and is working to minimize and then pay the outstanding taxes, file outstanding claim reports and restore the properties to compliance. Quality Assurance and Quality Control Reported assays are rock chip and channels samples taken by Company geologists and trained sampling teams. Sample intervals are generally 2 metre chip channels or 2x2 metre panels producing samples of between 2 to 9 kilograms. Reported samples were delivered to SGN Laboratories in Paral, Chihuahua. The samples were crushed and pulverised. Two 100 gram splits were taken. The Company’s geologists removed and stored the excess and a - 12 - 100 gram split at the Company’s offices. SGN performed initial Ag and Au analysis. The second split was subsequently sent to the ALS Geochemistry laboratory facilities in Chihuahua, Mexico and was analysed for Ag and multi-elements using method code ME-ICP61 following a four-acid digestion. Overlimits are analysed using an appropriate method. All assays reported above 30 g/t Ag have been analysed by ALS Geochemistry. The Company routinely inserts multi-element geochemical standards and blanks into the sample stream to monitor laboratories performance. Quality control samples submitted were returned within acceptable limits. Comparisons between sample splits demonstrate acceptable accuracy and precision. Mexico – Maricela Project In March 2021, the Company optioned the Maricela group of mineral concessions covering 155 hectares in the State of Sonora, Mexico. The Project is within a prolifically mineralized Arizona – Sonora porphyry belt, one of the most important centres of copper mineralization world-wide. Spatially and genetically related to this giant porphyry trend are numerous epithermal gold and silver deposits. The Project has excellent infrastructure, with good road access and internal roads, nearby power, water and low rolling terrain. The Maricela property shows no evidence of previous drilling or systematic exploration. The property has a number of small open pits and shafts where limited high grade material was mined in the 1950’s and 1960’s and shipped to a processing plant in Cananea. Prior to the Company acquiring an interest in the Project, the most recent work conducted was a small sampling program (24 samples) conducted by the Mexican Geological Survey in 2000. In June 2021, the Company announced that its rock sampling programs identified both high grade gold-silver vein targets and wide (up to 25 metres) stockwork and breccia zones. The combination of multiple intersecting vein systems, with mineralized stockworks on the vein margins, result in large breccia and stockwork zones at the vein intersections and compelling drill targets. Highlights from recent rock chip continuous sampling include: • 3m at 4.46 g/t Au and 1335 g/t Ag - Baby Gloria Vein • 6m at 1.03 g/t Au and 418 g/t - Ag Central Vein • 25.3m at 0.31 g/t Au and 62 g/t Ag - (intersecting veins) The project hosts an epithermal silver & gold mineralized vein system extending approximately 1.5 kilometres long by 300 metres wide, within which occurs multiple veins, stockworks and breccias which at intersections have exposed widths +25 metres. Recent mapping and sampling (273 rock chips) identified 6 major veins with combined strike approximately of 5 kilometres. The main vein Virgin de Plata strikes NW-SE and has been defined for approximately 1 kilometre. Virgin de Plata is intersected by at least 5 veins (striking NE-SW) forming a horse tail structure of intersecting veins. The veins are generally 1 to 3 metres of massive quartz with mineralized stockworks and brecciated veins selvages, extending commonly +10 metres across the vein zones. At intersections, larger stockwork zones are observed. The mineralization type is silver plus gold epithermal vein system hosted within an andesite volcanic sequence, with felsic dykes emplaced sub-parallel to mineralized structures. Continuous rock chip sampling was used to estimate the average grade and thickness of the outcropping veins. Significant mineralized intervals are reported in Table 1: - 13 - Table 1. Significant continuous rock chip gold silver intervals.

Most of the known veins and associated stockworks occur within a tightly spaced area approximately 1 kilometre x 600 metres, defining an obvious open pit target. The district around Marcela is well known for high grade low sulphidation epithermal vein systems that extend to significant depth with nearby examples: Silvercrest’s Las Chispas deposit (55 kilometres south) and Equinox Gold’s Mercedes mine (55 kilometres southwest). The multiple intersecting mineralized veins at Maricela make for compelling drill targets that have never been tested. The Company’s team is currently preparing drill and access permits for a planned first program this year. Maricela Drone Videos The Company has flown drone videos over the property during the recent geological mapping program. The drone videos highlight some of the property geology and potential and a short presentation clip is available on the Company’s website and at the following link: https://youtu.be/s9SDtTRt0SM The Option Agreement The Company can earn a 100% interest in the Maricela Project by making staged payments to the private property owner totalling US$1,250,000 over three years with a final payment of US$1,060,000 due at the end of year three. A total of US$30,000 has been paid to date. The owner retains a 1% NSR which the Company can buy back for US$1,000,000. Quality Assurance and Quality Control - 14 - Reported assays are rock chip and channels samples taken by Company geologists and trained sampling teams. Sample intervals are generally 3m chip channels producing samples of between 2 to 9 kilograms. Reported samples were delivered to ALS in Chihuahua. The samples were crushed and pulverised and two 100 gram splits were taken. Company geologists transported a 100 gram split to SGN laboratory in Parral for rapid initial Ag and Au analysis. The second split was analyzed by ALS Geochemistry for Au and Ag and multi-elements using method code ME- ICP61 following a four-acid digestion. Overlimits are analyzed using an appropriate method. In effect duplicate analysis was done on all samples, ALS geochemistry an internationally certified laboratory, and by SGN Laboratories in Parral, a reliable mining laboratory that is not internationally certified. This was completed to prevent delays which have become common during the COVID pandemic. The Company routinely inserts multi- element geochemical standards and blanks into the sample stream to monitor both laboratories performance. Quality control samples submitted were returned within acceptable limits. Comparisons between sample splits demonstrate acceptable accuracy and precision. Mexico – Rambler Project In January 2019, the Company staked the 10,379 hectare Rambler Project located in the Sierra Madre Mountains of the State of Chihuahua, Mexico, approximately 20 kilometres northwest of the Company’s Amalia Project. The project area is previously unexplored with only minor historic artisanal-scale pitting of surface outcrops known. The Company’s geologists discovered the project during regional prospecting surveys. Epithermal silver/gold (plus significant copper, zinc and lead) mineralization has been sampled by the Company in several veins, vein breccias and disseminated zones over a 9 kilometre north-west trend. The property will be further evaluated once the license application has been granted. Guatemala - Southeast Guatemala Ag-Au Epithermal Fields The Company signed an agreement in May 2020 whereby it has granted to Volcanic the exclusive option (the “Option”) to acquire a 60% interest in the Company’s Holly and Banderas gold-silver properties in Guatemala. Volcanic may exercise the Option by spending US$7.0 million on exploration of the properties within 48 months from the date drilling permits are granted. First year requirements of incurring at least US$1.0 million on exploration, including carrying out a minimum 3,000 metres of drilling, have been completed by Volcanic. Volcanic also has the exclusive right for 24 months following the execution of the Option to evaluate the Company’s other property interests in Guatemala and to enter into an agreement to acquire an interest in any of such other properties on reasonable mutually agreed upon terms. Recent exploration activities conducted by Volcanic on the Holly and Banderas Properties are summarized below. Holly Property In April 2021, Volcanic commenced a 3,000 metre diamond core drilling program at Holly, with the emphasis on exploring for high grade shoots associated with the intersection of the Jocotan Fault Zone and the NW-SE trending high grade vein systems, El Pino and La Peña. To date, results received from the initial 30 diamond drill holes completed on the La Peña target and the El Pino and Alpha structures. Highlights include: • 30 holes completed to date testing three distinct vein sets cutting the Jocotan fault zone. • Drilling cuts high grade gold and silver at La Peña and confirms vein orientations. • Veins appear to be increasing in size with depth. - 15 - Table 1.

The drilling to date has defined a very high grade and robust vein system at the Peña vein system, extending 200 metres along strike and 200 metres down dip, but open in all directions. Two holes in the deeper portion of the explored vein have returned exceptionally high grade mineralization with HDD-21-027 intersecting 4.57 metres (or approximately 4.1 metres true width) returning over 54 g/t gold and over 3.9 kg/t silver. At the same depth in the system hole HDD-21-23, located 150m to the south, intersected 4.58 metres at 79.84 g/t Au and 5,053 g/t Ag. Future drilling will be focusing on extending this high-grade system at depth and along strike to the south with a goal of establishing a meaningful high-grade resource and improving confidence in the trend of the vein structure. Several other veins in the area with similar orientation warrant testing. El Pino and Alpha Structures Drill holes HDD21-005 to HDD21-013 tested the El Pino vein system. Narrow intercepts of medium and anomalous grade gold/silver were intersected. These holes tested historic surface anomalies. Drilling at El Pino cut the vein zone significantly higher than intercepts at La Peña and that may account for the narrow results. At the Alpha zone, the system was not targeted within the 200 metre wide Jocotan fault breccia, which drilling at La Peña indicates may be a key control on the mineralizing system. Current Status Field crews have continued detailed mapping and sampling at Holly project. This work has identified new drill targets on splay structures of the Jocotan fault where two large zones of mineralized breccia have been mapped and are coincident with high grade soil and rock chip results. Volcanic plans systematic drill testing of these new targets including the Jocotan splay faults and to continue testing the extensions, both strike and dip, of La Peña vein system. Assays are still pending on some additional sample for drill hole HDD-21-026 and the samples from the detailed rock chip sampling of the Jocotan splay targets. On February 24, 2022, the Company reported that a violent attack had occurred at the Holly project, significantly damaging the drill rig and equipment. No one was injured. In the latter part of 2021 and the first months of this year, a small group of individuals from the area have been aggressively spreading misinformation about our activities and the effects they say mining can have in the region. The main communities covering the Holly project area have expressed their support of the project and Volcanic has access agreements with community development councils and private landowners. Despite significant effort, the anti-mining group has been unable to gain wide community support or legally halt the project. During the last 6 months approximately 70% of local residents (approximately 1,000 people) have attended Company informative tours of the project site and core shed, keeping people educated about mining and informed of Volcanic’s activities which employ many people, gaining general support for the project. Unfortunately, a small group has resorted to violent means to further their cause. The Radius / Volcanic team has also been making good progress working with Central and Local governments. The Presidential Commission for Peace and Human Rights has held the first of a number of planned coordination meetings with institutions and authorities at the national, departmental, and municipal levels regarding the February incident at Holly and to address concerns of the small minority. From these meetings it is clear that the Central - 18 - government and Departmental government of Chiquimula support the Holly project and will work with Volcanic to regain the social license. Volcanic looks forward to a resolution of the issues and a resumption of work at the project and corresponding news flow. The gold and silver discovery made at Holly is significant. It is a high-grade vein deposit that could be mined from underground, causing very little surface disruption. It will not require a processing plant as in the near future there will likely be two mills in operation within trucking distance. Volcanic is in the process of concluding an inferred resource calculation and from that we will generate an approximate value of the deposit that has been discovered to date. Further, the deposit is open in all directions. We will continue to move forward at a pace that will protect the investment we have made and the value we have created. Elsewhere in Guatemala, Volcanic is actively reviewing the land position it optioned from the Company in June 2020. Several of the areas have been reviewed, some have been rejected and the concession applications cancelled. To date, three have shown significant promise and the process of having these concessions granted is underway. There are many more areas to review and the work is ongoing. Banderas Property In March 2021, results were announced from Volcanic’s continuing exploration program at the Banderas Property. Highlights of the results are: • Pyramid Hill vein systems extended for over 1,800 metres along strike. Mapping and sampling defined a NW/SE broad zone of stockwork and brecciation hosting multiple quartz veins of up to 3 metres width with both shallow and vertical dips. Rock chip and sub crop sampling returned grades up to 6.2 g/t Au and 273 g/t Ag. • Zapote mineralization identified 1,500 metres along strike to the southeast beyond extensive cover, returning up to 2.7 g/t Au and 14.7 g/t Ag from surface vein outcrop sampling. Zapote zone now mapped along a 3,100 metre strike length. The Banderas Property is located 7 kilometres south of the Holly Property. Previous work on the Banderas property has identified two extensive gold/silver bearing vein systems, the Pyramid Hill and the Zapote Zones. The Pyramid Hill zone consists of two northwest trending sub-parallel vein zones located approximately 500 metres apart, called the Pyramid Hill (“PH”) and the “M28” zones. Each zone hosts several 1- to 5-metre-wide quartz veins. At the PH zone, the veins dip steeply to the northeast and are surrounded by a prominent alteration zone with an approximate 20 metre wide zone of stockwork veining and brecciation, and at M28, the veins dip shallowly to the west. Mapping by Volcanic has extended both vein systems by 1.5 kilometres to the southeast, extending them both to nearly 3.5 kilometres in length. Historically, over 40 shallow drill-holes have explored the PH and M28 systems and returned broad zones of low-grade gold/silver mineralization in both mineralized corridors including: - 19 - The Zapote Zone is located 1,500 metres to the west of the Pyramid Hill. Numerous quartz veins and extensive alteration occurs at the contact between a large Dacitic dome and the andesite and rhyolite country rock. Historic rock chip sampling over an area 150 metres wide along 800 metres of this contact has returned strongly anomalous gold/silver mineralization. To the southeast, the mineralization disappears under an extensive area of thick colluvium. No drilling has been conducted at Zapote target. Recent sampling has identified the continuation of the Zapote system 850 metres along strike to the southeast, where recent sampling returned values up to 2.7 g/t Au and 14.7 g/t Ag. The planned drill program at Banderas has been suspended while Volcanic works on access agreements with an adjoining community. Volcanic has access agreements in place with the community covering the drill project at Banderas, but further consultation and work is required with the adjoining community to ensure the benefits of the project are spread out and all affected communities in the area consent. USA – Nevada – Bald Peak Property The Company acquired in 2017 a 100% interest in an epithermal gold prospect located in the Aurora gold camp, Nevada known as the Bald Peak gold property from Ely Gold & Minerals Inc. (“Ely Gold”) (TSX-V: ELY) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Nevada Select Royalty Inc. Subsequently, the Company increased its land position by staking an additional 113 unpatented mining claims which are contiguous to the claims acquired from Ely Gold. While the Company’s exploration work has defined prospective zones in the California portion of the property which warrant further exploration, management has determined that continuing the onerous permitting requirements imposed by the California State Lands Commission is not in the best interests of the Company or its shareholders. Accordingly, the Company has relinquished all of its rights to the Bald Peak Property.

After the US$10.0 million has been paid and cumulative gold production from the Tambor Project has exceeded 100,000 ounces, the cash payments will be based on the then price of gold and the number of ounces of gold produced, ranging from US$25 per ounce when the gold price is below $1,500 up to $50 per ounce when gold price is $1,500 or greater. Commercial production commenced at the Tambor project in December 2014 and receipt of royalty payments by the Company commenced during the third quarter of 2015. To date, the Company has recognized net royalty income of $1,530,555 of which $746,375 has been received. In May 2016, KCA informed the Company that mining operations were suspended by the Supreme Court of Guatemala due to a lack of consultation by the Guatemalan Ministry of Mines with local indigenous people when the mine was permitted in 2011. The Supreme Court has not yet made a decision on when the mine may re-open, and as a result, KCA initiated a Central America Free Trade Agreement Arbitration action against the Guatemalan government to overturn the suspension of operations and seek compensation from the Guatemalan authorities, from which the Company would benefit as well. KCA is currently in the valuation stage of the Arbitration and the determinative hearing is scheduled for December 2021. Until these proceedings are concluded, the Company is allowing KCA to defer payment of the remaining balance owing to the Company. Due to these circumstances, for accounting purposes, a provision was recorded against the KCA receivable in the 2016 fiscal year. Mexico - Tlacolula Property Royalty In 2017, the Company completed the sale of its Tlacolula silver property, Mexico to Fortuna in consideration for 239,385 common shares of Fortuna, a cash payment of US$150,000, and a 2% NSR royalty on the property. Fortuna retains the right to purchase one-half of the royalty by paying the Company US$1.5 million. Outlook Management of the Company is enthusiastic about the current exploration programs at multiple targets. The Company plans to continue its strategy of conducting property evaluations and grassroots exploration on properties in various jurisdictions with a focus on gold and silver in Mexico. Qualified Person: Bruce A Smith, M.Sc., MAIG., a member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists, is the Company’s Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, and has approved the disclosure of the technical information in this MD&A. Selected Annual Information - 21 - The following table sets forth selected annual financial information of the Company for, and as at, the end of each of the last three financial years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019: Investment and other income Exploration expenditures Net loss for the year Total Basic & fully diluted per share Total assets Total long-term liabilities Cash dividends 2021 ($) 3,048 690,258 (892,648) (0.01) 2,803,553 154,631 - 2020 ($) 6,186 731,021 (893,037) (0.01) 3,753,243 218,891 - 2019 ($) 43,875 753,960 (2,563,125) (0.03) 4,319,672 275,487 - Investment and other income was significantly higher for the 2019 fiscal year due to a one-time dividend distribution of $34,500 the Company received from an equity investment. The net loss for the 2019 fiscal year was significantly higher than the net losses for the 2021 and 2020 fiscal years due to a $1,259,505 write-off of a formerly held royalty interest. Total assets have trended lower for each year as a result of the Company liquidating a portion of its equity investments over the course of the past three fiscal years to help fund operations. Long-term liabilities presented for all three fiscal years are related to the adoption of an accounting standard on January 1, 2019 whereby the Company began recording a lease liability associated with a right-to-use asset. Quarterly Information The following table provides information for the eight fiscal quarters ended December 31, 2021: Quarter ended Investment and other income Dec. 31, 2021 ($) 583 Sep. 30, 2021 ($) 669 June 30, 2021 ($) Mar. 31, 2021 ($) 839 957 Dec. 31, 2020 ($) 1,076 Sep. 30, 2020 ($) 1,030 June 30, 2020 ($) Mar. 31, 2020 ($) 857 3,223 Exploration expenditures 165,417 242,398 156,033 126,410 157,573 144,379 119,517 309,552 Net income (loss ) (476,632) (330,655) 287,608 (372,969) (300,131) (134,368) (3,642) (454,896) Basic and diluted income (loss) per share (0.01) (0.00) 0.00 (0.00) (0.00) (0.00) (0.00) (0.01) The quarter ended June 30, 2021 resulted in a net income position and the net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 is less than all other quarters presented due to gains of $488,705 and $206,398, respectively, from the Amalia Project option agreement with Pan American. The results for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 also included a gain of $100,000 from the Holly and Banderas properties option agreement with Volcanic. Results of Operations Quarter ended December 31, 2021 The quarter ended December 31, 2021 had a net loss of $476,632 compared to a net loss of $300,131 for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, an increase of $176,501. Exploration expenditures for the current quarter totaled $165,417 compared to $157,573 for the comparative quarter, an increase of $7,844. - 22 - General and administrative expenses for the current quarter were $296,632, compared to $126,196 for the comparative quarter, an increase of $170,436. This increase is primarily due to a share-based compensation expense of $151,310 in the current quarter compared to $12,244 for the comparative quarter, an increase of $139,066. Stock- based compensation expense for the current quarter relates to the fair value of stock options granted during the quarter to various employees in addition to the value of shares to be issued as part of a compensation package for the Chief Executive Officer of the Company whereas the comparative quarter expense relates entirely to the granting of stock options. Other notable cost increases for the current quarter were in shareholder communications, office and administration, salaries and benefits, and management fees. Shareholder communication costs were higher due to more promotional and tradeshow activity. Costs for salaries and benefits and office and administration costs were higher due to an increase in the Company’s portion of shared administrative and personnel costs. Management fees were higher due to the addition of Bruce Smith as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer at the beginning of the current fiscal year. A portion of Mr. Smith’s compensation is allocated to general and administrative expenses and a portion to exploration expenditures. Year ended December 31, 2021 The year ended December 31, 2021 had a net loss of $892,648 compared to $893,037 for the year ended December 31, 2020, a decrease of $389. The current year resulted in a lower net loss due in part to the current year recording a gain from mineral property option agreements of $488,705 compared to $306,398 for the comparative year. The current year also recorded a gain of $62,964 on the sale and disposal of equipment located in Guatemala whereas there was no such gain in the comparative year. The current year recorded a fair value loss of $3,589 on derivative investments whereas the comparative year recorded a fair value gain of $2,060, a difference of $5,649. Derivative investments consist of share purchase warrants that were acquired along with common shares in private placement investments and the fair value gains and losses on such are charged to profit or loss. Exploration expenditures for the current year totaled $690,258 compared to $731,021 for the comparative year, a decrease of $40,763. Exploration expenditures for both current and comparative years were both reduced by Pan American funding the exploration activity on the Amalia Project. The current year also recorded a mineral property write-off of $117,816 relating to the Bald Peak property whereas there were no such write-offs for the comparative year. General and administrative expenses for the current year were $629,033, compared to $432,821 for the comparative year, an increase of $196,212. This increase is partly due to the current year recording a share-based compensation expense of $174,845 compared to $55,694 for the comparative year, an increase of $119,151. As in the quarterly comparison, the current year had notable cost increases in shareholder communication, management fees, salaries and benefits, and office and administration costs. These increases are due in part to the same reasons as in the quarterly comparison in addition to there being more cost-cutting efforts during the comparative year in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. A notable cost decrease for the current year was in legal and audit fees. While actual audit fees for the current year are expected to be fairly similar to those for the comparative year, a higher estimate for such fees was used for a yearend accrual in the comparative year. Mineral Properties Expenditures A summary of the Company’s expenditures on its mineral properties during the year ended December 31, 2021 is as follows: Mexico – A total of $850,418, excluding cost recoveries, was incurred on exploration, property investigation, and miscellaneous administrative costs, of which $267,969 was incurred on the Amalia property, $120,019 was incurred - 23 - on the Plata Verde property and $117,883 on the Maricela property. A cost recovery of $268,827 relating to funding from the optionee on the Amalia property resulted in a net recovery of $858 for that property. United States – A total of $12,099 was incurred on exploration, permitting, property investigation, and miscellaneous administrative costs. Guatemala – A total of $62,183 was incurred on miscellaneous exploration and administrative costs. Other – A total of $34,385 was incurred on property investigation costs in regions other than USA, Mexico, and Guatemala. Further details regarding exploration expenditures for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 are provided in the schedules at the end of this MD&A. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company’s cash and cash equivalents were $1.53 million at December 31, 2021 compared to $2.22 million at December 31, 2020. As at December 31, 2021, working capital was $2.22 million compared to $3.06 million at December 31, 2020. Included in working capital is the fair value of the Company’s equity investments which as of December 31, 2021 was $0.74 million compared to $0.90 million as of December 31, 2020. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company received an option payment of $488,705 (US$400,000) relating to the Amalia Project option agreement with Pan American. In addition to its working capital assets, the Company held 3,973,275 common shares in Rackla with a fair value of $1.61 million as at December 31, 2021; however, the investment is being accounted for as an investment in associate, using the equity method, since the Company may be able to exercise significant influence on Rackla. The Company did not earn any royalty revenue from the Tambor Project during the current year as the operations at Tambor continue to be suspended. The Company intends to use the proceeds from any sales of its equity investments, option payments received and royalty income payments received to fund its exploration programs, investment opportunities, and general working capital requirements. The Company expects its current capital resources to be sufficient to carry out its exploration and investment plans and operating costs for the next twelve months. Commitment The Company has entered into an operating lease agreement for its office premises. The Company shares its office space with other companies related by common directors and officers on a month to month basis, and the portion of the rent paid by these companies is netted against the Company’s rental expense. However, as there are no commitments from these companies, the amounts presented below are the gross commitments of the Company. The annual commitments under the lease are as follows: 2022 2023 2024 $ 130,035 131,952 133,869 $ 395,856 For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company received a total of $96,255 (2020: $90,708) from those companies which share office space with the Company. - 24 - Financial Instruments and Risk Management The Company is exposed to the following financial risks: • Market Risk • Credit Risk • Liquidity Risk In common with all other businesses, the Company is exposed to risks that arise from its use of financial instruments. This section describes the Company’s objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them. Further quantitative information in respect of these risks is presented throughout the accompanying consolidated financial statements. General Objectives, Policies and Processes The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the determination of the Company’s risk management objectives and policies and, whilst retaining ultimate responsibility for them, it has delegated the authority for designing and operating processes that ensure the effective implementation of the objectives and policies to the Company’s finance function. The Board of Directors receive periodic reports through which it reviews the effectiveness of the processes put in place and the appropriateness of the objectives and policies it sets. The overall objective of the Board is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the Company’s competitiveness and flexibility. Further details regarding these policies are set out below. a) Market Risk Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market prices are comprised of three types of risk: foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, and equity price risk. Foreign Currency Risk Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currencies through its operations in foreign countries. The Company monitors this exposure but has no hedge positions. As at December 31, 2021, the Company is exposed to currency risk through the following financial assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the Canadian dollar: December 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 US Dollar Mexican Peso Guatemala Quetzal US Dollar Mexican Peso Guatemala Quetzal (CDN equivalent) (CDN equivalent) (CDN equivalent) (CDN equivalent) (CDN equivalent) (CDN equivalent) Cash Receivables Current liabilities $ 404,866 - (27,883) $ 2,341 6,625 - $ 14,507 - (1,050) $ 130,620 11,300 (10,557) $ 1,128 5,235 - $ 2,843 - (2,780) $ 376,983 $ 8,966 $ 13,457 $ 131,363 $ 6,363 $ 63 - 25 - Based on the above net exposures at December 31, 2021, a 10% depreciation or appreciation of the above currencies against the Canadian dollar would result in approximately a $39,900 (2020: $13,800) increase or decrease in profit or loss, respectively. Commodity Price Risk The Company’s royalty revenue is derived from a royalty interest that is based on the extraction and sale of gold. Factors beyond the control of the Company may affect the marketability of gold discovered. Gold prices have historically fluctuated widely. Consequently, the economic viability of the Company’s royalty interest cannot be accurately predicted and may be adversely affected by fluctuations in gold prices. The Company has not engaged in any hedging activities. The Company is not exposed to commodity price risk as the Company has not earned any royalties during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. The Company does not have any borrowings. Interest rate risk is limited to potential decreases on the interest rate offered on cash held with chartered Canadian financial institutions. The Company considers this risk to be limited as it holds no assets or liabilities subject to variable rates of interest. Equity Price Risk Equity price risk is the uncertainty associated with the valuation of assets arising from changes in equity markets. The Company’s equity investments consisting of common shares and derivative investments consisting of share purchase warrants are exposed to significant equity price risk due to the potentially volatile and speculative nature of the businesses in which the investments are held. The Company’s equity investments are monitored by the Board with decisions on sale or exercise taken by Management. A 10% decrease in fair value of the shares and warrants would result in an approximate $74,000 (2020: $90,000) decrease in comprehensive income and shareholders’ equity. b) Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its cash and cash equivalents, equity investments, derivative investments and receivables. The Company limits exposure to credit risk by maintaining its cash and cash equivalents with large financial institutions. The Company does not have cash and cash equivalents or equity investments that are invested in asset based commercial paper. For advances and other receivables, the Company estimates, on a continuing basis, the probable losses and provides a provision for losses based on the estimated realizable value. c) Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to provide reasonable assurance that it will have sufficient funds to meet liabilities when due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows required by operations and anticipated investing and financing activities.

Although the Company holds less than 20% of the ownership interest and voting control of Rackla, the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence through both its shareholding and the number of common directors with Rackla. As such, Rackla meets the definition of an associate and has been equity accounted for in the consolidated financial statements. The following table shows the continuity of the Company’s investment in Rackla for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020: Balance, December 31, 2019, 2020, and 2021 $ 1 Prior to the 2015 fiscal year the Company’s share of losses in Rackla exceeded the carrying value of its interest and therefore the Company has not recognized any of its share of losses for the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. The cumulative unrecognized share of losses for the associate as at December 31, 2021 is $715,782 (2020: $689,982). The financial statement balances of Rackla are as follows: Total current assets Total assets Total liabilities Net loss December 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 $ 35,036 $ 36,563 $ 1,319,441 $ 107,564 $ 294,671 $ 47,748 $ 221,818 $ 220,441 - 29 - At December 31, 2021, the fair value of the 3,973,275 common shares of Rackla was $1,609,176 (2020: $595,991) based on the market price of the common shares of Rackla. Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation The Company’s significant accounting policies and future changes in accounting policies are presented in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. Future Changes in Accounting Policies The Company has reviewed upcoming policies and amendments and determined that none are expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Risks and Uncertainties Global Pandemic The Company faces risks related to health epidemics and other outbreaks of communicable diseases, which could significantly disrupt its operations and may materially and adversely affect its business and financial conditions. The Company’s business could be adversely impacted by the effects of the COVID-19 coronavirus which was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020 and continues to be to the present time. The extent to which COVID-19 may impact the Company’s business, including its operations and the market for its securities, will continue to depend on future developments which cannot be predicted, and include the duration, severity and scope of the outbreak and the actions taken to contain or treat the outbreak. The continued spread of COVID-19 globally could materially and adversely impact the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations including without limitation, employee health, workforce productivity, increased insurance premiums, limitations on travel, the availability of industry experts and personnel, restrictions to any drill programs and/or the timing to process drill and other metallurgical testing, and other factors that will depend on future developments beyond the Company’s control. The international response to the spread of COVID-19 has led to periods of significant restrictions on travel, temporary business closures, quarantines, global stock market volatility and a general reduction in consumer activity. Such public health crises can result in operating and supply chain delays and disruptions, global stock market and financial market volatility, declining trade and market sentiment, reduced movement of people and labour shortages, and travel and shipping disruption and shutdowns, including as a result of government regulation and prevention measures, or a fear of any of the foregoing, all of which could affect commodity prices, interest rates, credit ratings, credit risk and inflation. Royalty revenue The Company cannot predict future revenues from or operating results of mining activity. Management expects any future royalty revenues from the Tambor Project to fluctuate depending on the level of future production and the price of gold. The owner of the Tambor Project is not obligated to re-start or continue production from the Tambor Project and the Company will not be entitled to any compensation if this mining operation does not meet its forecasted gold production targets or if the mine operations are discontinued on a temporary or permanent basis. Risks that could negatively affect a mine’s operations include, but are not limited to economics, lack of financial - 30 - capital, floods, fire, mechanical malfunctions, social unrest, expropriation, environmental regulations, and legal and/or political changes. The Tambor Project is currently subject to a suspension of operations imposed by the Supreme Court of Guatemala. Competition The Company faces competition from other capital providers, all of which compete with it for investment opportunities. These competitors may limit the Company’s opportunities to acquire interests in investments that are attractive to the Company. The Company may be required to invest otherwise than in accordance with its Investment Policy and strategy in order to meet its investment objectives. If the Company is required to invest other than in accordance with its Investment Policy and strategy, its ability to achieve its desired rates of return on its investments may be adversely affected. Inability to dispose of illiquid securities There is a possibility that the Company will be unable to dispose of illiquid securities held in its portfolio and if the Company is unable to dispose of some or all of its investments at the appropriate time, a positive return on such investment may not be realized. Due diligence The due diligence process undertaken by the Company in connection with investments that it makes or wishes to make may not reveal all relevant facts in connection with an investment. Before making investments, the Company will conduct due diligence investigations that it deems reasonable and appropriate based on the facts and circumstances applicable to each investment. The due diligence investigations that are carried out with respect to any investment opportunity may not reveal or highlight all relevant facts that may be necessary or helpful in evaluating such investment opportunity. Moreover, such an investigation will not necessarily result in the investment being successful. Mineral property exploration and mining The business of mineral deposit exploration and extraction involves a high degree of risk. Few properties that are explored ultimately become producing mines. At present, none of the Company’s properties has a known commercial ore deposit. The main operating risks include: securing adequate funding to maintain and advance exploration properties; ensuring ownership of and access to mineral properties by confirmation that option agreements, claims and leases are in good standing; and obtaining permits for drilling and other exploration activities. If the Company does not satisfactorily complete its contribution requirements to any joint ventures it may be a party to, the Company’s interest in a joint venture can be diluted to a point where all interest in the joint venture is forfeited. Joint venture funding The Company’s strategy includes seeking partners through joint ventures to fund exploration and project development. The main risk of this strategy is that funding partners may not be able to raise sufficient capital in order to satisfy exploration and other expenditure terms in a particular joint venture agreement. As a result, exploration and development of one or more of the Company’s property interests may be delayed depending on - 31 - whether the Company can find another partner or has enough capital resources to fund the exploration and development on its own. Commodity price The Company is exposed to commodity price risk. Declines in the market price of gold, silver, base metals and other minerals may adversely affect the Company’s ability to raise capital or attract joint venture partners in order to fund its ongoing operations. Commodity price declines could also reduce the amount the Company would receive on the disposition of one of its mineral properties to a third party. The Company’s past royalty revenue was derived from a royalty interest that is based on the extraction and sale of gold. Factors beyond the control of the Company may affect the marketability of precious and base metals discovered or extracted. Metal prices have historically fluctuated widely. Consequently, the economic viability of the Company’s property and royalty interests cannot be accurately predicted and may be adversely affected by fluctuations in metal prices. Financing and share price fluctuation The Company had a limited source of operating cash flow in the form of royalty revenue from the Tambor property; however, that property is currently subject to suspension of operations. There is no assurance that additional funding from this or other sources will be available to the Company when needed for further exploration and development of its projects. Further exploration and development of one or more of the Company’s projects may be dependent upon the Company’s ability to obtain financing through equity or debt financing or other means. Failure to obtain this financing could result in delay or indefinite postponement of further exploration and development of its projects which could result in the loss of one or more of its properties. Securities markets have at times in the past experienced a high degree of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many companies, particularly those considered to be exploration stage companies such as the Company, have experienced wide fluctuations in share prices which have not necessarily been related to their operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects. There can be no assurance that these kinds of share price fluctuations will not occur in the future, and if they do occur, how severe the impact may be on the Company’s ability to raise additional funds through equity issues or the value of the Company’s equity and derivative investments and corresponding effect on the Company’s financial position. Political, regulatory and currency Some of the Company’s mineral property interests are located in emerging nations. Properties in emerging nations may be subject to a higher level of risk compared to developed countries. Operations, the status of mineral property rights, title to the properties and the recoverability of amounts shown for mineral properties in emerging nations can be affected by changing economic, regulatory and political situations. The Company’s equity financings are sourced in Canadian dollars but for the most part it incurs its exploration and property maintenance expenditures in US dollars, Guatemalan quetzals, and Mexican pesos. At this time there are no currency hedges in place. Therefore a weakening of the Canadian dollar against the US dollar, Guatemalan quetzal, or Mexican peso could have an adverse impact on the amount of exploration conducted. Insurance In the course of exploration, development and production of mineral properties, the Company is subject to a number of hazards and risks in general, including adverse environmental conditions, operational accidents, labor disputes, unusual or unexpected geological conditions, changes in the regulatory environment and natural phenomena such as inclement weather conditions, floods, earthquakes, and pandemics. Such occurrences could result in damage to - 32 - the Company’s properties or facilities and equipment, personal injury or death, environmental damage to properties of the Company or others, delays, monetary losses and possible legal liability. Although the Company may maintain insurance to protect against certain risks in such amounts as it considers reasonable, its insurance may not cover all the potential risks associated with its operations. The Company may also be unable to maintain insurance to cover these risks at economically feasible premiums or for other reasons. Should such liabilities arise, they could reduce or eliminate future profitability and result in increased costs, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results and a decline in the value of the securities of the Company. Environmental and social The activities of the Company are subject to environmental regulations issued and enforced by government agencies. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner that will require stricter standards and enforcement and involve increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects, and a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and their officers, directors and employees. There can be no assurance that future changes in environmental regulation, if any, will not adversely affect the Company’s operations. Environmental hazards may exist on properties in which the Company holds interests which are unknown to the Company at present. Social risks are fairly significant in some of the Company’s areas of operations. Violence, kidnapping, theft and other criminal activities could disrupt supply chains and discourage qualified individuals from being involved with the Company's operations.
