Inception Mining, Inc.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

JuneSeptember 30, 2023

1. Nature of Business

Inception Mining, Inc. (formerly known as Gold American Mining Corp.) was incorporated under the name of Golf Alliance Corporation and under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 2, 2007. Inception Mining, Inc. is a precious metal mineral acquisition, exploration and development company. Inception Development, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary, was incorporated under the laws of the State of Idaho on January 28, 2013.

Golf Alliance Corporation pursued its original business plan to provide opportunities for golfers to play on private golf courses normally closed to them due to the membership requirements of the private clubs. During the year ended July 31, 2010, the Company decided to redirect its business focus toward precious metal mineral acquisition and exploration.

On March 5, 2010, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to (1) change its name to Silver America, Inc. and (2) increase its authorized common stock from 100,000,000 to 500,000,000.500,000,000. In 2020, the Company increased its authorized common stock from 500,000,000 to 800,000,000.800,000,000. In 2022, the Company increased its authorized common stock from 800,000,000 to 10,300,000,000.10,300,000,000.

On June 23, 2010, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to change its name to Gold American Mining Corp.

On November 21, 2012, the Company implemented a 200 to 1 reverse stock split. split. Upon effectiveness of the stock split, each shareholder canceled 200 shares of common stock for every share of common stock owned as of November 21, 2012. This reverse stock split was effective on February 13, 2013. All share and per share references have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this 200 to 1 reverse stock split in the financial statements and in the notes to financial statements for all periods presented, to reflect the stock split as if it occurred on the first day of the first period presented.

On February 25, 2013, Gold American Mining Corp. and its majority shareholder (the “Majority Shareholder”), and its wholly owned subsidiary, Inception Development Inc. (the “Subsidiary”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Inception Resources, LLC, a Utah corporation (“Inception Resources”), pursuant to which Inception purchased the U.P. and Burlington Gold Mine in consideration of 16,000,000 shares of common stock of Inception, the assumption of promissory notes in the amount of $950,000$950,000 and the assignment of a 3%3% net royalty. Inception Resources was an entity owned by and under the control of the majority shareholder. This transaction was deemed an asset purchase by entities under common control. The Asset Purchase Agreement closed on February 25, 2013 (the “Closing”). Inception was a “shell company” (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) immediately prior to our acquisition of the gold mine pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement. As a result of such acquisition, the Company’s operations were then focused on the ownership and operation of the mine acquired from Inception Resources and the Company then ceased to be a shell company as it no longer has nominal operations. On February 21, 2020, the Company sold the Up & Burlington property and mineral rights to Ounces High Exploration, Inc. in exchange for $250,000$250,000 in cash consideration and 66,974,252 shares of common stock of Hawkstone Mining Limited, a publicly-trade Australian company.

On May 17, 2013, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to change its name to Inception Mining, Inc. (“Inception” or the “Company”).

On October 2, 2015, the Company consummated a merger with Clavo Rico Ltd. (“Clavo Rico”). Clavo Rico is a privately held Turks and Caicos company with principal operations in Honduras, Central America. Clavo Rico operates the Clavo Rico mining concession through its subsidiaries Compañía Minera Cerros del Sur, S.A de C.V. and Compañía Minera Clavo Rico, S.A. de C.V. and holds other mining concessions. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company issued 240,225,901 shares of common stock of Inception and assumed promissory notes in the amount of $5,488,980$5,488,980 and accrued interest of $3,434,426.$3,434,426. Under this merger agreement, there was a change in control, and it was treated for accounting purposes as a reverse recapitalization with Clavo Rico, Ltd. being the surviving entity. Its workings include several historical underground operations dating back to the early Mayan and Spanish occupation.

On January 11, 2016, the Company implemented a 5.5 to 1 reverse stock split.split. This reverse stock split was effective on May 26, 2016. All share and per share references have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this 5.5 to 1 reverse stock split in the financial statements and in the notes to financial statements for all periods presented, to reflect the stock split as if it occurred on the first day of the first period presented. Immediately before the Reverse Split, the Company had 266,669,980 shares of common stock outstanding. Immediately after the Reverse Split, the Company had 48,485,451 shares of common stock outstanding, pending fractional-share rounding-up calculations to adjust for the Reverse Split.

On January 12, 2023, Inception Mining, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a non-binding Letter of Intent (the “LOI”) with Mother Lode Mining, Inc. (“MLM”). The LOI became binding on January 24, 2023. Pursuant to the terms of the LOI, the Company agreed to sell all of the shares of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Compañía Minera Cerros Del Sur, S.A. de C.V. (“CMCS”), to MLM. CMCS is the Honduran-based company that owns the Clavo Rico mine.

Since the divestiture of the Clavo Rico Mine, the Company has been operating as a consultant and advisor to the mining industry, including to Mother Lode Mining, the new owner of the Clavo Rico mine. It also has an ongoing financial interest in the Clavo Rico Mine under the LOI, with monthly payments due through February 2025 that are secured by a net smelter royalty.

COVID-19 - The challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy increased significantly as the first quarter of 2020 progressed. COVID-19 has spread across the globe during 2020 and is impacting economic activity worldwide. In response to COVID-19, national and local governments around the world have instituted certain measures, including travel bans, prohibitions on group events and gatherings, shutdowns of certain businesses, curfews, shelter-in-place orders and recommendations to practice social distancing. Based on management’s assessment as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023, the ultimate impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows is dependent on future developments, including the duration of the pandemic and the related length of its impact on the global economy, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Going Concern - The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had net income of $15,526,678$14,992,619 during the nine-month period ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023 and had a working capital deficit of $142,091$192,993 as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023. Since the net income was from non-operating sources and the working capital is still a deficit along with other factors, these along with other factors indicate that the Company may be unablehas substantial doubt of being able to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements.

The Company’s existence is dependent upon management’s ability to develop profitable operations and to obtain additional funding sources. There can be no assurance that the Company’s financing efforts will result in profitable operations or the resolution of the Company’s liquidity problems. The accompanying statements do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Management is currently working to make changes that will result in profitable operations and to obtain additional funding sources to meet the Company’s need for cash during the next twelve months and beyond.

Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Inception Mining, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Inception Development, Corp., Clavo Rico Development Corp., Clavo Rico, Ltd. and Compañía Minera Cerros del Río, S.A. de C.V., and its controlling interest subsidiaries, Compañía Minera Cerros del Sur, S.A. de C.V. and Compañía Minera Clavo Rico, S.A. de C.V. (collectively, the “Company”) until the divestiture of the subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Basis of Presentation - The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

F-6

 

Condensed Financial Statements - The interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Inception Mining Inc. (“Inception Mining” or the “Company”) without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in this filing and the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on April 17, 2023.

Table of Contents

In the opinion of management, all adjustments have been made consisting of normal recurring adjustments and consolidating entries, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company and subsidiaries as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023, the results of its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive lossincome (loss) for the three-month periodthree and nine-month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023, its condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ deficit and its consolidated cash flows for the six-monthnine-month period ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023. The results of consolidated operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

Use of Estimates – In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenditures during the reported periods. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Estimates may include those pertaining to valuation of inventories and mineralized material on leach pads, the estimated useful lives and valuation of properties, plant and equipment, mineral rights and properties, deferred tax assets, convertible preferred stock, derivative assets and liabilities, reclamation liabilities, stock-based compensation and payments, and contingent liabilities.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At JuneSeptember 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $0$40,625 and $0$0 in cash equivalents, respectively. The aggregate cash balance on deposit in these accounts is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000.$250,000. The Company has never experienced any losses in such accounts.

Settlement of Contracts in Company’s EquityEquity– In accordance with ASC 815-40-25, the Company must meet certain requirements in order to report contracts as equity versus liabilities. These requirements must be met by the Company or the contracts need to be reported as liabilities. The Company has adopted the sequencing approach as guidance on contracts that permit partial net share settlement. The Company evaluates the contracts based on the earliest issuance date. Currently, the Company doesn’t have any items that are reported as equity instead of liabilities.

Fair Value Measurements - The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that could be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Financial assets are marked to bid prices and financial liabilities are marked to offer prices. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity. In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk, including the party’s own credit risk.

Fair value measurements do not include transaction costs. A fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy is defined into the following three categories:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.

F-7

 

To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is disclosed and is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The carrying value of the Company’s cash, accounts payable, short-term borrowings (including convertible notes payable), and other current assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term maturity.

The Company recognizes its derivative liabilities as level 3 and values its derivatives using the methods discussed below. While the Company believes that its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, it recognizes that the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. The primary assumptions that would significantly affect the fair values using the methods discussed below are that of volatility and market price of the underlying common stock of the Company.

Notes Receivable - Notes receivable include amounts due to the Company pursuant to financial agreements stipulating interest rates, payment terms and maturity dates. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, notes receivable balance includes one note due from Mother Load Mining, Inc. in the amounts of $2,445,000$2,265,000 and $0,$0, respectively, net of reserves of $0$0 (see Note 4 – Note Receivable).

Long-Lived Assets - We review the carrying amount of our long-lived assets for impairment whenever there are negative indicators of impairment. An asset is considered impaired when estimated future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset. In the event the carrying amount of such asset is not considered recoverable, the asset is adjusted to its fair value. Fair value is generally determined based on discounted future cash flows.

Properties, Plant and Equipment - We record properties, plant and equipment at historical cost. We provide depreciation and amortization in amounts sufficient to match the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives or productive value. We capitalize expenditures for improvements that significantly extend the useful life of an asset. We charge expenditures for maintenance and repairs to operations when incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives as follows:

Schedule of Property and equipment Useful Lives

Building

7 to 15 years

Vehicles and equipment

3 to 7 years

Furniture and fixtures

2 to 3 years

F-8

 

Stock Issued for Goods and Services - Common and preferred shares issued for goods and services are valued based upon the fair market value of our common stock or the goods and services received.

Stock-Based Compensation - For stock-based transactions, compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period, based on the estimated fair value on the grant date of the award.

Income (Loss) per Common Share - Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss), less the preferred stock dividends, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Dilutive income (loss) per share includes any additional dilution from common stock equivalents, such as stock options and warrants, and convertible instruments, if the impact is not antidilutive. 100,000278,699,849 and 430,305,633,122430,296,172,574 common share equivalents have been excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation for the three-month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, because it would be anti-dilutive. 223,204,762458,422,944 and 430,305,633,122430,296,172,574 common share equivalents have been excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation for the six-monthnine-month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, because it would be anti-dilutive.

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) – Other Comprehensive income (loss) is made up of the exchange differences arising on translating foreign operations and the net loss for the three and six-monthnine-month periods ending JuneSeptember 30, 2023 and 2022.

Derivative Liabilities - Derivative liabilities are recorded at fair value when issued and the subsequent change in fair value each period is recorded in other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations.

Income Taxes - The Company’s income tax expense and deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect management’s best assessment of estimated future taxes to be paid. Significant judgments and estimates are required in determining the consolidated income tax expense.

Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between the tax and financial statement recognition of revenue and expense. In evaluating the Company’s ability to recover its deferred tax assets, management considers all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. In projecting future taxable income, the Company develops assumptions including the amount of future state and federal pretax operating income, the reversal of temporary differences, and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require significant judgment about the forecasts of future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates that the Company is using to manage the underlying businesses. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which the Company does not consider realization of such deferred tax assets to be more likely than not.

Changes in tax laws and rates could also affect recorded deferred tax assets and liabilities in the future. Management is not aware of any such changes that would have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Non-Controlling Interest Policy – Non-controlling interest (NCI) is the portion of equity ownership in a subsidiary not attributable to the parent company, who has a controlling interest and consolidates the subsidiary’s financial results with its own. The amount of equity relating to the non-controlling interest is separately identified in the equity section of the balance sheet and the amount of the net income (loss) relating to the non-controlling interest is separately identified on the statement of operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements – From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by FASB that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

3. Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825-10”) on January 1, 2008. ASC 825-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of non-performance. ASC 825-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

The following table provides a summary of changes in fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023:

Derivative Liabilities – The Company issued convertible promissory notes which are convertible into common stock, at holders’ option, at a discount to the market price of the Company’s common stock. The Company has identified the embedded derivatives related to these notes relating to certain anti-dilutive (reset) provisions. These embedded derivatives included certain conversion features. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record fair value of the derivatives as of the inception date of debenture and to fair value as of each subsequent reporting date.

12

Table of Contents

At JuneSeptember 30, 2023, the Company marked to market the fair value of the debt derivatives and determined a fair value of $23,362.$131,487. The Company recorded a gain from change in fair value of debt derivatives of $3,239,250$3,503,454 for the period ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023. The fair value of the embedded derivatives was determined using the Binomial Option Pricing Model. The Binomial Option Pricing Model was based on the following assumptions: (1) dividend yield of 0%0%, (2) expected volatility of 309.71%298.43%, (3) weighted average risk-free interest rate of 5.50%5.53% (4) expected life of 0.300.71 years, and (5) the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock at each valuation date.

Based upon ASC 840-15-25 (EITF Issue 00-19, paragraph 11) the Company has adopted a sequencing approach regarding the application of ASC 815-40 to its outstanding convertible notes. Pursuant to the sequencing approach, the Company evaluates its contracts based upon earliest issuance date.

F-11

 

Warrant Liabilities – Prior to the periods being reported, the Company issued warrants in conjunction with the issuance of a Crown Bridge Convertible Note. These warrants contained certain reset provisions. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments required that the Company record fair value of the derivatives as of the inception date (issuance date) and to fair value as of each subsequent reporting date.

At JuneSeptember 30, 2023, the Company had a warrant liability of $0.$0. The Company recorded a loss from change in fair value of warrant liability of $0$0 for the period ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023. The fair value of the embedded derivatives was determined using the Binomial Option Pricing Model. The Binomial Option Pricing Model was based on the following assumptions: (1) dividend yield of 0%0%, (2) expected volatility of 307.65%390.49%, (3) weighted average risk-free interest rate of 5.50%5.61% (4) expected life of 0.320.07 years, and (5) the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock at each valuation date.

4. Note Receivable

On January 12, 2023, Inception Mining, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a non-binding Letter of Intent (the “LOI”) with Mother Lode Mining, Inc. (“MLM”). The LOI became binding on January 24, 2023 when the final installment of initial payment set forth under the LOI was received by the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the LOI, the Company agreed to sell all of the shares of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Compañía Minera Cerros Del Sur, S.A. de C.V. (“CMCS”), to MLM. CMCS is the Honduran-based company that owns the Clavo Rico mine.

The purchase price for the sale of CMCS by the Company to MLM consisted of the following cash consideration (a) $280,000$280,000 was delivered by MLM to the Company on January 3, 2023 to pay outstanding debts owed by the Corporation; (b) $300,000$300,000 was delivered by MLM to the Company on January 5, 2023 to satisfy existing debts of the Company; (c) $100,000$100,000 was delivered by MLM to the Company on January 16, 2023; (d) $200,000$200,000 was delivered by MLM to the Company on January 17, 2023; (e) $1,200,000$1,200,000 was delivered by MLM to the Company on January 18, 2023, to pay a settlement amount for existing debt of the Company; (f) $500,000$500,000 was delivered by MLM to the Company on January 23, 2023, to satisfy existing debts of the Company; (g) $500,000$500,000 was delivered by MLM to the Corporation on January 24, 2023 to satisfy existing debts of the Corporation.

In addition to the amounts already delivered under the LOI, an additional amount of $2,620,000$2,620,000 shall be paid by MLM to the Company over a period of twenty-four (24) months (the “Monthly Payments”). The Monthly Payments shall be paid as follows: (i) $25,000$25,000 due March 1, 2023, (ii) $50,000$50,000 due on the first day of each of April, May and June 2023, and (iii) $100,000$100,000 due on the first day of each month for the following twenty months, until February 1, 2025 at which point all amounts due and payable hereunder shall be delivered in a final balloon payment. The March 2023 payment waspayment.The Company has received by the Company,several payments leaving an outstanding balance of $2,595,000$2,265,000 as of March 31, 2023. September 30,2023. MLM paid an additional $80,000 in initial payments than the agreement called for. Based on this additional funds, MLM has paid less than the scheduled payments to make up the cash outflow to them. However, MLM is currently $40,000 behind on payments. The Company has contacted MLM and they have agreed to get current with payments during the next couple months. Outstanding balances and missed Monthly Payments will be secured by a 10% NSR on the Clavo Rico mine production until the Monthly Payments are delivered and the purchase price is paid in full. In addition to the Monthly Payments, the Company will receive a carried forward net profits interest royalty (“NPI”) of 5% on the Clavo Rico mine production until the total NPI paid to the Company is $1,000,000,$1,000,000, subject to limited conditions.

Overview and Plan of Operation

Overview

We are a mining company that was formed in Nevada on July 2, 2007. Historically operated two mining projects and currently operate as a consultant and advisor to the mining industry. Additionally, we have been engaged in the production of precious metals. From 2013 to 2020, the Company owned certain real property and the associated exploration permits and mineral rights commonly known as the UP and Burlington Gold Mine in Idaho (“UP and Burlington”). From 2015 through January 24, 2023, the Company operated the Clavo Rico mine in Honduras through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Compañía Minera Cerros del Sur, S.A de C.V. (“CMCS”) and other mining concessions. The Clavo Rico mine’s workings include several historical underground mining operations dating back to the early Mayan and Spanish occupation, and the primary mine operated through 2022 is located on the 200-hectare Clavo Rico Concession, located in southern Honduras.

2023 Divestiture of the Clavo Rico Mine

On January 12, 2023, Inception Mining, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a non-binding Letter of Intent (the “LOI”) with Mother Lode Mining, Inc. (“MLM”). The LOI became binding on January 24, 2023 when the final installment of initial payment set forth under the LOI was received by the Company.

Pursuant to the terms of the LOI, the Company agreed to sell all of the shares of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Compañía Minera Cerros Del Sur, S.A. de C.V. (“CMCS”), to MLM. CMCS is the Honduran-based company that owns the Clavo Rico mine.

The purchase price for the sale of CMCS by the Company to MLM consisted of the following cash consideration (a) $280,000 was delivered by MLM to the Company on January 3, 2023 to pay outstanding debts owed by the Corporation; (b) $300,000 was delivered by MLM to the Company on January 5, 2023 to satisfy existing debts of the Company; (c) $100,000 was delivered by MLM to the Company on January 16, 2023; (d) $200,000 was delivered by MLM to the Company on January 17, 2023; (e) $1,200,000 was delivered by MLM to the Company on January 18, 2023, to pay a settlement amount for existing debt of the Company; (f) $500,000 was delivered by MLM to the Company on January 23, 2023, to satisfy existing debts of the Company; (g) $500,000 was delivered by MLM to the Corporation on January 24, 2023 to satisfy existing debts of the Corporation.

In addition to the amounts already delivered under the LOI, an additional amount of $2,620,0000 shall be paid by MLM to the Company over a period of twenty-four (24) months (the “Monthly Payments”). The Monthly Payments shall be paid as follows: (i) $25,000 due March 1, 2023, (ii) $50,000 due on the first day of each of April, May and June 2023, and (iii) $100,000 due on the first day of each month for the following twenty months, until February 1, 2025 at which point all amounts due and payable hereunder shall be delivered in a final balloon payment. Outstanding balances and missed Monthly Payments will be secured by a 10% NSR on the Clavo Rico mine production until the Monthly Payments are delivered and the purchase price is paid in full. In addition to the Monthly Payments, the Company will receive a carried forward net profits interest royalty (“NPI”) of 5% on the Clavo Rico mine production until the total NPI paid to the Company is $1,000,000, subject to limited conditions.

Following the Closing of the LOI on January 24, 2023, the Company divested its ownership interest in CMCS and its interests in the Clavo Rico mine, resulting in the transfer of operations to Mother Lode Mining and full control of the Clavo Rico mine asset.

Current Operations

Since the Divestiture of the Clavo Rico Mine, the Company has been operating as a consultant and advisor to the mining industry, including to Mother Lode Mining, the new owner of the Clavo Rico mine. It also has an ongoing financial interest in the Clavo Rico Mine under the LOI.

The Company will receive $2,445,000 in cash payments through January 2025, with such payments secured by a ten percent net smelter royalty on the Clavo Rico Mine’s production.

The Company will also receive a carried forward net profits interest royalty of five percent of the Clavo Rico mine production until payment to the Company reaches $1,000,000, subject to reduction for certain limited Clavo Rico mine expenses.

Results of Operations

We anticipate generating losses and, therefore, may be unable to continue operations in the future, if we don’t acquire additional capital and issue debt or equity or enter into a strategic arrangement with a third party.

Going Concern Consideration

As reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company and has an accumulated deficit of $26,142,563.$26,676,622. In addition, there is a working capital deficit of $142,091$192,993 as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financials.

27

Table of Contents

Costs of acquiring mining properties and any exploration and development costs are expensed as incurred unless proven and probable reserves exist, and the property is a commercially mineable property. Mine development costs incurred either to develop new gold and silver deposits, expand the capacity of operating mines, or develop mine areas substantially in advance of current production are capitalized. Costs incurred to maintain current production or to maintain assets on a standby basis are charged to operations. Costs of abandoned projects are charged to operations upon abandonment. The Company evaluates, at least quarterly, the carrying value of capitalized mining costs and related property, plant, and equipment costs, if any, to determine if these costs are in excess of their net realizable value and if a permanent impairment needs to be recorded. The periodic evaluation of carrying value of capitalized costs and any related property, plant and equipment costs are based upon expected future cash flows and/or estimated salvage value.

7

 

The Company capitalizes costs for mining properties by individual property and defers such costs for later amortization only if the prospects for economic productions are reasonably certain. Capitalized costs are expensed in the period when the determination has been made that economic production does not appear reasonably certain.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

For recent accounting pronouncements, please refer to the notes to financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
