FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2015, 2014 AND 2013
(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT
To the Shareholders of Rouge Resources Ltd.:
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Rouge
Resources Ltd., which comprise the statements of financial position as at
January 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, and the statements of comprehensive loss,
changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and a summary of
significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair
presentation of these financial statements in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting
Standards Board, and for such internal control as management determines is
necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with
Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that
we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from
material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit
evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The
procedures selected depend on the auditors judgment, including the assessment
of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due
to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers
internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of
the financial statements 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 entity's internal control. An audit also
includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the
reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our
audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Rouge Resources Ltd. as at January
31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, and its financial performance and its cash flows for
the years then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting
Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
Emphasis of Matter
Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 1 in
the financial statements which describes certain conditions that indicate the
existence of a material uncertainty that casts substantial doubt about Rouge
Resources Ltd.s ability to continue as a going concern.

Notes to the Financial Statements |
(Expressed in Canadian dollars) |
For the years
ended January 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 |
|
1. |
Nature and continuance of operations
|
Rouge Resources Ltd. (the Company)
was incorporated on March 31, 1988 under the laws of the province of British
Columbia, Canada, and its principal activity is the acquisition and exploration
of mineral properties in Canada. The Companys shares are traded on the TSX
Venture Exchange (TSX-V) under the symbol ROU and quoted on the OTC:BB in the
United States. The Companys registered and records office is located at Suite
203 - 409 Granville St., Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 1T2.
These financial statements have been
prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern,
meaning it will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be
able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the ordinary course of
business. As at January 31, 2015, the Company had not advanced any of its
properties to commercial production and is not able to finance day-to-day
activities through operations. The Companys continuation as a going concern is
dependent upon the successful results from its mineral property exploration
activities; its ability to attain profitable operations and generate funds
therefrom; and its ability to raise equity capital or borrowings sufficient to
meet current and future obligations. These factors indicate the existence of a
material uncertainty that casts substantial doubt about the Companys ability to
continue as a going concern. Management intends to finance operating costs over
the next twelve months with cash on hand, loans from directors and companies
controlled by directors, and/or private placement of common shares. Should the
Company be unable to continue as a going concern, the net realizable value of
its assets may be materially less than the amounts presented on its Statements
of Financial Position.
|
2. |
Significant accounting policies and basis of
preparation |
These financial statements were
authorized for issue on May 28, 2015 by the directors of the Company.
Statement of compliance with
International Financial Reporting Standards
These financial
statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as
issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and
interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations
Committee (IFRIC).
Basis of preparation
These financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis;
are based on historical costs, modified where applicable; and are presented in
Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.
Significant estimates and
assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in
accordance with IFRS requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions
concerning the future. The Companys management reviews these estimates and
underlying assumptions on an ongoing basis, based on experience and other
factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be
reasonable under the circumstances. Revisions to estimates are adjusted for
prospectively in the period in which the estimates are revised.
Estimates and assumptions where there
is significant risk of material adjustments to assets and liabilities in future
accounting periods include: the useful lives of equipment, the recoverability of
the carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets, fair value measurements
for financial instruments, the recoverability and measurement of deferred tax
assets, and provisions for restoration and environmental obligations and
contingent liabilities.
Significant judgments
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS
requires the Company to make judgments, apart from those involving estimates and
assumptions, in applying accounting policies. The most significant judgments in
preparing the Companys financial statements include:
|
- |
assessment of the Companys ability to continue
as a going concern and whether there are events or conditions that may
give rise to significant uncertainty; and |
|
- |
classification / allocation of expenditures as
exploration and evaluation assets or operating expenses.

Notes to the Financial Statements |
(Expressed in Canadian dollars) |
For the years
ended January 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 |
Foreign currency translation,
transactions and balances
The functional currency of a Company is
measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which it
operates. These financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars which is
the Companys functional and presentation currency.
Foreign currency transactions, where
applicable, are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates
prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are
translated at the period-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at
historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the
transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the
exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.
Exchange differences arising on the
translation of monetary items or on settlement of monetary items are recognized
in the Statement of Comprehensive Loss in the period in which they arise, except
where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.
Exchange differences arising on the
translation of non-monetary items are recognized in other comprehensive income
to the extent that gains and losses arising on those non-monetary items are also
recognized in other comprehensive income. Where the non-monetary gain or loss is
recognized in profit or loss, the exchange component is also recognized in
profit or loss.
Exploration and evaluation
expenditures
Costs incurred before the Company has obtained the legal
rights to explore an area are expensed as incurred.
Exploration and evaluation
expenditures include the costs of acquiring licenses and costs associated with
exploration and evaluation activity. Option payments are considered acquisition
costs provided that the Company has the intention of exercising the underlying
option.
Property option agreements are
exercisable entirely at the option of the optionee. Therefore, option payments
(or recoveries) are recorded when payment is made (or received) and are not
accrued.
Exploration and evaluation expenditures
are capitalized. The Company capitalizes costs to specific blocks of claims or
areas of geological interest. Government tax credits received are recorded as a
reduction to the cumulative costs incurred and capitalized on the related
property.
Exploration and evaluation assets are
tested for impairment if facts or circumstances indicate that impairment exists.
Examples of such facts and circumstances are as follows:
|
- |
the period for which the Company has the right to explore
in the specific area has expired during the period or will expire in the
near future, and is not expected to be renewed; |
|
|
|
|
- |
substantive expenditure on further exploration for and
evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area is neither budgeted

After technical feasibility and
commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource are demonstrable, the
Company stops capitalizing expenditures for the applicable block of claims or

balance, net of any impairment recognized, is then reclassified to either
tangible or intangible mine development assets according to the nature of the
asset.

Development expenditures
Costs arising from the construction, installation or completion of
infrastructure facilities are capitalized within mine development assets until
the mine achieves commercial production at which point accumulated costs are
transferred to producing mine assets.
Share-based payments
The Company has a stock option plan. Share-based payments to
employees are measured at the fair value of the instruments issued and amortized
over the vesting periods. Share-based payments to non-employees are measured at
the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity
instruments issued, if it is determined the fair value of the goods or services
cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services
are received. Compensation expense is recognized and the corresponding amount is
recorded in the share option reserve. The fair value of options is determined
using the BlackScholes Option Pricing Model. The number of shares and options
expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period
such that the amount recognized for services received as consideration for the
equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments
that eventually vest. When the options are exercised, share capital is credited
for the consideration received and the related share option reserve is
decreased.
Loss per share
Basic
loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to common
shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the
period. For all periods presented, the loss attributable to common shareholders
equals the reported loss attributable to owners of the Company. Diluted loss per
share is calculated by the treasury stock method. Under this method, the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the calculation of
diluted loss per share assumes that the proceeds to be received on the exercise
of dilutive share options and warrants are used to repurchase common shares at
the average market price during the period. Any stock options or share purchase
warrants outstanding cause the calculation of diluted loss per share to be
anti-dilutive and are therefore not included in the calculation.
Financial instruments
The Company classifies its financial instruments in the following
categories: fair value through profit or loss , loans and receivables,
held-to-maturity investments, available-for-sale and financial liabilities. The
classification depends on the purpose for which the financial instruments were
acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial instruments
at initial recognition.
Fair value through profit or loss
investments are either held-for-trading for the purpose of short-term profit
taking, derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or held on a fair value basis
in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy when
designated as such to avoid an accounting mismatch or to enable performance
evaluation where a group of financial assets is managed by key management
personnel. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value with unrealized
changes in carrying value being included in profit or loss.
Loans and receivables are
non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not
quoted in an active market and are subsequently measured at amortized cost. They
are included in current assets except for maturities greater than 12 months
after the end of the reporting period. These are classified as non-current
assets.
Held-to-maturity investments are
non-derivative financial assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or
determinable payments with Companys intention to hold these investments to
maturity. They are subsequently measured at amortized cost. Held-to-maturity
investments are included in non-current assets, except for those instruments
that are expected to mature within 12 months after the end of the reporting
period.
Available-for-sale investments are
non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-for-sale or are
not suitable to be classified as financial assets at fair value through profit
or loss, loans and receivables or held-to-maturity investments and are
subsequently measured at fair value. These are included in current assets to the
extent they are expected to be realized within 12 months after the end of the
reporting period. Unrealized gains and losses are recognized in other
comprehensive income, except for impairment losses and foreign exchange gains
and losses on monetary financial assets which are recognized in profit or
loss.

For the years
ended January 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 |
Non-derivative financial liabilities
(excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at amortized cost.
Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on the
trade-date, being the date when the Company commits to purchase the asset.
Financial assets are derecognized when
the rights to receive cash flows from the investments have expired or have been
transferred and the Company has transferred substantially all risks and rewards
of ownership.
At each reporting date, the Company
assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has
been impaired. In the case of available-for-sale financial instruments, a
significant and prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered
to determine whether an impairment has arisen.
Transaction costs related to financial
instruments include professional, consulting, regulatory, agency commissions and
other costs that are incremental to the acquisition, issuance or disposition of
financial assets, liabilities or equity instruments. Transaction costs are
initially charged to the related financial instrument or equity instrument,
except where the financial instrument is classified as fair value through profit
or loss, in which case transaction costs are expensed to the Statement of
Comprehensive Loss immediately.
The Company does not have any
derivative financial assets and liabilities.
Impairment of assets
The carrying amount of the Companys non-current assets, which
include equipment and exploration and evaluation assets, is reviewed at each
reporting date to determine whether there is an indication of impairment. If
such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in
order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. An impairment loss is
recognized in the Statement of Comprehensive Loss whenever the carrying amount
of the asset, or its cash-generating unit, exceeds its recoverable amount.
The recoverable amount is the greater
of an assets fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. In assessing
value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present
value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of
the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For an asset that
does not generate cash flows largely independent of those from other assets, the
recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset
belongs.
A cash-generating unit is the smallest
identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows largely independent of
the cash flows from other assets or groups of assets. Impairment losses
recognized in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the
carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit and then
to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit on a pro-rata
basis.
An impairment loss is only reversed if
there is an indication that the impairment loss may no longer exist and there
has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount.
However, any reversal of impairment cannot increase the carrying value of the
asset to an amount higher than the carrying amount that would have been
determined had no impairment loss been recognized in previous years. An
impairment loss with respect to goodwill is never reversed.
Assets that have an indefinite useful
life are not subject to amortization and are tested annually for impairment.
Cash
Cash includes
cash on hand and deposits held at call with banks.

Income taxes
Current income tax
Current income tax
assets and liabilities for the current period are measured at the amount
expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates
and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or
substantively enacted, at the reporting date, in the countries where the Company
operates and generates taxable income.
Current income tax relating to items
recognized directly in other comprehensive income or equity is recognized in
other comprehensive income or equity and not in profit or loss. Management
periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to
situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and
establishes provisions where appropriate.
Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax is recognized using the asset and liability method
on temporary differences at the reporting date arising between the tax bases of
assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting
purposes.
The carrying amount of deferred income
tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and recognized only
to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable profit will be
available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be
utilized.
Deferred income tax assets and
liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year
when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and
tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the
reporting period.
Deferred income tax assets and deferred
income tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set
off current tax assets against current income tax liabilities and the deferred
income taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation
authority.
Flow-through shares
On the issuance of flow-through shares, any premium received in excess
of the closing market price of the Companys common shares is initially recorded
as a liability (flow-through tax liability). Provided that the Company has
renounced the related expenditures, or that there is a reasonable expectation
that it will do so, the flow-through tax liability is reduced on a pro-rata
basis as the expenditures are incurred. If such expenditures are capitalized, a
deferred tax liability is recognized. To the extent that the Company has
suitable unrecognized deductible temporary differences, an offsetting recovery
of deferred income taxes would be recorded.
Restoration and environmental
obligations
The Company recognizes liabilities for statutory,
contractual, constructive or legal obligations associated with the retirement of
long-term assets, when those obligations result from the acquisition,
construction, development or normal operation of the assets. The net present
value of future restoration cost estimates arising from the decommissioning of
plant and other site preparation work is capitalized to the related asset along
with a corresponding increase in the restoration provision in the period
incurred. Discount rates using a pre-tax rate that reflects the time value of
money are used to calculate the net present value.
The Companys estimates of restoration
costs could change as a result of changes in regulatory requirements, discount
rates and assumptions regarding the amount and timing of the future
expenditures. These changes are recorded directly to exploration and evaluation
assets with corresponding entries to the related asset and the restoration
provision. The Companys estimates are reviewed annually for changes in
regulatory requirements, discount rates, effects of inflation and changes in
estimates.
Changes in the net present value,
excluding changes in the Companys estimates of restoration costs, are charged
to the Statement of Comprehensive Loss for the period. The net present value of
restoration costs arising from subsequent site damage that is incurred on an
ongoing basis during production are charged to the Statement of Comprehensive
Loss in the period incurred. These changes are recorded directly to the related
asset with a corresponding entry to the provision. The increase in the
restoration provision due to the passage of time is recognized as interest
expense.

The net present value of restoration
costs arising from subsequent site damage that is incurred on an ongoing basis
during production are charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Loss in the
period incurred.
The costs of restoration projects that
were included in the provision are recorded against the provision as incurred.
The costs to prevent and control environmental impacts at specific properties
are capitalized in accordance with the Companys accounting policy for
exploration and evaluation assets.
At present, the Company has not
identified any significant restoration and environmental obligations in its
operations. Accordingly, no provision has been made.
Equipment
Equipment
is stated at historical cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated
impairment losses.
Subsequent costs are included in the
asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only
when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will
flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The
carrying amount of the replaced part, if applicable, is derecognized. All other
repairs and maintenance are charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Loss
during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Gains and losses on disposals are
determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognized
in the Statement of Comprehensive Loss.
Amortization is calculated on a
declining balance method to write-off the cost of the equipment to its residual
value over its estimated useful life at the rate of 30% per year.
Comparative figures
Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the
current years presentation.

Accounting standards issued but not yet
effective |
New standard IFRS 9 Financial
Instruments
This new standard is a partial
replacement of IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS
9 introduces new requirements for the classification and measurement of
financial assets, additional changes relating to financial liabilities, a new
general hedge accounting standard which will align hedge accounting more closely
with risk management. The new standard also requires a single impairment method
to be used, replacing the multiple impairment methods in IAS 39. IFRS 9 is
effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 with early
adoption permitted.
New standard IFRS 15 Revenue
from Contracts with Customers
This new standard contains a single
model that applies to contracts with customers and two approaches to recognizing
revenue: at a point in time or over time. The model features a contract-based
five-step analysis of transactions to determine whether, how much and when
revenue is recognized. New estimates and judgmental thresholds have been
introduced, which may affect the amount and/or timing of revenue recognized.
IFRS 15 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017
with early adoption permitted.
The Company has not early adopted these
standards and is currently assessing the impact that these standards will have
on its financial statements.
Other accounting standards or
amendments to existing accounting standards that have been issued but have
future effective dates are either not applicable or are not expected to have a
significant impact on the Companys financial statements.

Notes to the Financial Statements |
(Expressed in Canadian dollars) |
For the years
ended January 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 |
On April 20, 2010, a director of the
Company entered into an exclusive option agreement with local prospectors
(Optionors) on behalf of the Company in order to acquire 100% interest in two
additional claims adjacent to the Dotted Lake Property, known as the Lampson
Lake Property. Option payments totaling $60,000 were required as follows: $7,000
payment when the agreement was signed on April 20, 2010 (paid); $12,000 payment
on April 20, 2011 (paid); $16,000 payment on April 20, 2012 (paid); and a final
payment of $25,000 on April 20, 2013. However on March 1, 2013, the Company
agreed with the optionors to split the final payment into two equal amounts of
$12,500. The first was paid on April 20, 2013 and the second was paid on April
20, 2014.
These claims are subject to a 2% net
smelter royalty (NSR) in favour of the optionors on one claim and with respect
to the other, a combination of a 2% NSR in favour of the optionors and a 1% NSR
on any metals and/or a 1% NSR payable to Ontario Exploration Company (OEC) on
any precious metals recovered from the property. The Company has the right to
buy back 1% of the NSR in favour of the optionors for $1,000,000 and to buy back
three-quarters of 1% of the royalty vested with OEC over 10 years on an
increasing scale from $15,000 to $750,000.
In addition and primarily due to
continuing uncertainty in the market conditions of the junior mining exploration
sector, the Company started a claims reconfiguration plan on its Dotted Lake
Property and adjacent Lampson Lake Property during the year ended January 31,
2015 and completed it subsequent to the year end in May 2015. The plan was
designed to focus entirely on claims of merit and resulted in certain claims
being allowed to lapse, certain claims being partially re-staked, and certain
land positions were modified or increased. As a result of these changes, the
Company paid $4,400 during the year ended January 31, 2015 and $7,000 subsequent
to January 31, 2015 (Note 15). The Company recorded an impairment charge of
$31,500 representing the portion of lapsed claims.

During the year ended January 31, 2013,
the Company completed two private placements, one brokered and the other
non-brokered, of 4,068,000 units for combined gross proceeds of $1,017,000.
Share issuance costs of $174,206 were incurred in relation to the brokered
private placement.
Basic and diluted loss per
share
The calculation of basic and diluted loss per share for
year ended January 31, 2015 was based on the net loss attributable to common
shareholders of $186,548 (January 31, 2014 - $209,624; January 31, 2013 -
$239,258) and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding of
44,633,171 (January 31, 2014 44,633,171 and January 31, 2013 42,299,073).
The diluted loss per share will not include the effect of any share purchase
warrants outstanding in the future since the effect would be
anti-dilutive.
Stock options
The
Company has adopted an incentive stock option plan which provides that the Board
of Directors of the Company may from time to time, in its discretion and in
accordance with the TSX-V requirements, grant to directors, officers, employees
and technical consultants to the Company, non-transferable stock options to
purchase common shares, provided that the number of common shares reserved for
issuance in any twelve month period will not exceed 10% of the Companys issued
and outstanding common shares. Such options will be exercisable for a period of
up to 10 years from the date of grant at a price not less than the closing price
of the Companys shares on the last trading day before the grant of such options
less any discount, if applicable, but in any event not less than $0.10 per
share. In connection with the foregoing, the number of common shares reserved
for issuance to any one optionee insider in any twelve month period will not
exceed ten percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding common shares and the
number of common shares reserved for issuance to any one employee or consultant
will not exceed two percent (2%) of the issued and outstanding common shares.
Options may be exercised no later than 90 days following cessation of the
optionees position with the Company or 30 days following cessation of an
optionee conducting investor relations activities.

Financial instruments and financial risk
management |
The Company is exposed in varying
degrees to financial instrument related risks. The Board of Directors approves
and monitors the risk management processes, inclusive of documented investment
policies, counterparty limits, and controlling and reporting structures. The
type of risk exposure and the way in which such exposure is managed is provided
as follows:
Credit risk
Credit
risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge
an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. The Companys
primary exposure to credit risk is on its cash held in bank accounts and its
credit and security deposit. The Companys cash and credit card deposit are
deposited in bank accounts held with one major bank in Canada so there is a
concentration of credit risk. This risk is managed by using a major bank that is
a high credit quality financial institution as determined by rating
agencies.
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 has a planning and
budgeting process in place to help determine the funds required to support the
Companys normal operating requirements on an on-going basis. The Company
ensures there are sufficient funds to meet short-term business requirements,
taking into account its current cash position and potential funding sources.
Historically, the Company's source of
funding has been either the issuance of equity securities for cash through
private placements or loans from Company directors and officers. The Companys
access to financing is always uncertain and there can be no assurance of
continued access to significant funding from these sources.
Foreign exchange
risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair values of future
cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because they are denominated
in currencies that differ from the Companys functional currency. The Company
only operates in Canada and is therefore not exposed to foreign exchange risk
arising from transactions denominated in a foreign currency.

Notes to the Financial Statements |
(Expressed in Canadian dollars) |
For the years
ended January 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 |
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash
flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market
interest rates. The Companys exposure to interest rate risk relates to its
ability to earn interest income on cash balances at variable rates. Changes in
short term interest rates will not have a significant effect on the fair value
of the Companys cash account.

Fair value

expenditures and to sustain future development of its business. The capital
structure of the Company consists of share and working capital. There were no
changes in the Company's approach to capital management during the year and the
Company is not subject to any restrictions on its capital.

Description of business
The Company is a Vancouver-based junior mineral exploration
company engaged in the business of acquiring, exploring, evaluating and, if
warranted, developing mineral resource properties in Canada. No revenue has been
generated since inception and there is no assurance that a commercially viable
mineral deposit exists on our exploration and evaluation assets. Further
exploration is required before a final evaluation of its Propertys economic
feasibility can be determined. Moreover, significant financing and considerable
time and effort will be required before our mineral claims can be further
explored and, if warranted, developed into a commercial enterprise.
We hold a 100% interest in 9 claims in the Thunder Bay Mining
District of North Central Ontario area, called the Dotted Lake Property which
includes the Lampson Lake claims acquired under the now completed option
agreement dated April 10, 2010. We continue to monitor claims in North-Central
Ontario and plan to make additional acquisitions in this and other areas when
and if The Property is considered to be strategic or otherwise beneficial to the
Company.

$16,000 payment on April 20, 2012 (paid); and a final payment of $25,000 on
April 20, 2013. However on March 1, 2013, the Company agreed with the optionors
to split the final payment into two equal amounts of $12,500. The first was paid
on April 20, 2013 and the second was paid on April 20, 2014.
These claims are subject to a 2% net smelter royalty (NSR) in
favour of the optionors on one claim and with respect to the other, a
combination of a 2% NSR in favour of the optionors and a 1% NSR on any metals
and/or a 1% NSR payable to Ontario Exploration Company (OEC) on any precious
metals recovered from the property. The Company has the right to buy back 1% of
the NSR in favour of the optionors for $1,000,000 and to buy back three-quarters
of 1% of the royalty vested with OEC over 10 years on an increasing scale from
$15,000 to $750,000.
In addition and primarily due to continuing uncertainty in the
market conditions of the junior mining exploration sector, the Company started a
claims reconfiguration plan on its Dotted Lake-Lampson Lake Property (The
Property) during the year ended January 31, 2015 and completed it subsequent to
the year end in May 2015. The plan was designed to focus entirely on claims of
merit and resulted in certain claims being allowed to lapse, certain claims
being partially re-staked, and certain land positions were modified or increased
as follows:

Management Discussion and
Analysis
Year Ended January 31, 2015
|
- |
Low potential claims were allowed to lapse when due and
not re-staked. This resulted in 3 claims being cancelled during the year
ended January 31, 2015 and 3 more being cancelled subsequent to the year
end. |
|
|
|
|
- |
Some claims were allowed to lapse when due and only
partially re-staked in order to recapture the most promising geology at
significantly lower cost compared to expensive assessment work otherwise
required to keep the claims in good standing. In this connection, 6
existing claims were re-staked and combined into 3 new claims costing only
$4,400 during fourth quarter of the year ended January 31, 2015;
|
|
|
|
|
- |
Some land positions forming part of or adjacent to
existing claims were modified or increased when due in order to enhance
exposure to the gold-bearing areas previously identified from earlier
exploration on the original property. In this connection, $7,000 was paid
subsequent to the year-end for staking 6 new claims at much lower cost
than assessment work otherwise required. This action completed the
reconfiguration plan on schedule in May 2015, notwithstanding 5 additional
claims will be allowed to lapse when due in August 2015 without
re-staking. |
The Company now has a 100% interest in 9 claims of merit going
forward consisting of 101 units or 4,040 acres in The Property, located in the
Thunder Bay Mining District of North Central Ontario, until renewal is required
in January, March and May 2017. This compares to 18 claims consisting of 171
units or 6,840 acres as at year ended January 31, 2014. As a result of these
changes, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $31,500 representing the
portion of lapsed claims.
Future exploration plans will be developed when the market for
precious metals begins to improve in due course.

Our quarterly losses during year ended January 31, 2015 were
lower on average than the same quarters last year due to much lower levels of
business activity. In addition, the fourth quarter loss in both years was
greater than the quarterly averages primarily due to year-end adjustments, not
the least of which was the one-time non-cash $31,500 impairment of exploration
and evaluation assets as at year ended January 31, 2015.

deficiency increased to $186,449 from $13,947 as at January 31, 2015. This
$172,502 increase resulted primarily from the $155,048 loss for the current year

CAPITAL RESOURCES
Share Capital
Authorized share capital
The Companys
authorized share capital consisted of an unlimited number of common shares
without par value.
Issued share capital
As at January 31, 2015,
there were 44,633,171 issued and fully paid common shares outstanding (January
31, 2014 and 2013 44,633,171) of which 1,894,800 shares remained in escrow
(January 31, 2014 and 2013 3,789,600), subject to release following regulatory
approval.
Private placements
No shares were issued
during the years ended January 31, 2015 and 2014.
During the year ended January 31, 2013, the Company completed
two private placements, one brokered and the other non-brokered, of 4,068,000
units for combined gross proceeds of $1,017,000. Share issuance costs of
$174,206 were incurred in relation to the brokered private placement.
Basic and diluted loss per share
The
calculation of basic and diluted loss per share for year ended January 31, 2015
was based on the net loss attributable to common shareholders of $186,548
(January 31, 2014 - $209,624; January 31, 2013 - $239,258) and the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding of 44,633,171 (January 31, 2014
44,633,171 and January 31, 2013 42,299,073). The diluted loss per share will
not include the effect of any share purchase warrants outstanding in the future
since the effect would be anti-dilutive.
Stock options
The Company has adopted an
incentive stock option plan which provides that the Board of Directors of the
Company may from time to time, in its discretion and in accordance with the
TSX-V requirements, grant to directors, officers, employees and technical
consultants to the Company, non-transferable stock options to purchase common
shares, provided that the number of common shares reserved for issuance in any
twelve month period will not exceed 10% of the Companys issued and outstanding
common shares. Such options will be exercisable for a period of up to 10 years
from the date of grant at a price not less than the closing price of the
Companys shares on the last trading day before the grant of such options less
any discount, if applicable, but in any event not less than $0.10 per share. In
connection with the foregoing, the number of common shares reserved for issuance
to any one optionee insider in any twelve month period will not exceed ten
percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding common shares and the number of
common shares reserved for issuance to any one employee or consultant will not exceed two percent (2%) of the
issued and outstanding common shares. Options may be exercised no later than 90
days following cessation of the optionees position with the Company or 30 days
following cessation of an optionee conducting investor relations activities.

Capital Management
The Company's policy is to
maintain a sufficient capital base so as to maintain investor and creditor
confidence, safeguard the Companys ability to support its exploration and
evaluation assets and to sustain future development of the business. The capital
structure of the Company consists of share and working capital. There were no
changes in the Company's approach to capital management during the year and the
Company is not subject to any restrictions on its capital.
With no operating revenues to date, we continue to finance our
operations through the issuance of common shares and advances from related
parties. Although there were two private placements completed during year ended
January 31, 2013, there is no assurance that additional financing will be
available when needed in the future nor, if available, on commercially
reasonable terms. If we are unable to obtain additional financing on a timely
basis, either through issuance of more common shares or obtaining additional
advances from related parties, we may not be able to meet our obligations as
they come due which may impact our ability to continue as a going concern in the
future.
To a significant extent, our ability to raise capital is affected by
trends and uncertainties beyond our control. These include general economic
conditions, the market prices for precious metals and results from our
exploration programs. The Companys ability to reach its business objectives may
be significantly impaired if general economic conditions continue to
deteriorate, prices for metals such as gold, silver and molybdenum fall or if
results from planned exploration programs are unsuccessful.

ITEM
1.10 FOURTH QUARTER
ENDED JANUARY 31, 2015
The 4th quarter net loss was $75,502 compared to an
average quarterly loss of approximately $37,000 during the first nine months of
the year. This difference resulted primarily from the $31,500 one-time non-cash
impairment of exploration and evaluation assets described in Item 1.2 above
along with normal year-end adjustments in preparation for audit.
ITEM
1.11 SUBSEQUENT AND
PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS
As mentioned in Item 1.2 above, the Company paid $7,000
subsequent to the year end in order to complete its claims reconfiguration plan
of The Property and thereby keep its new claims in good standing until January,
March and May 2017.
ITEM
1.12 CRITICAL
ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
Basis of preparation
These financial
statements have been prepared on an accrual basis; are based on historical
costs, modified where applicable; and are presented in Canadian dollars unless
otherwise noted.
Significant estimates and assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires
the Company to make estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The
Companys management reviews these estimates and underlying assumptions on an
ongoing basis, based on experience and other factors, including expectations of
future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Revisions to estimates are adjusted for prospectively in the period in which the
estimates are revised.
Estimates and assumptions where there is significant risk
of material adjustments to assets and liabilities in future accounting periods
include: the recoverability of the carrying value of exploration and evaluation
assets, fair value measurements for financial instruments, the recoverability
and measurement of deferred tax assets, and provisions for restoration and
environmental obligations and contingent liabilities.

Significant judgments
The preparation of
financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the Company to make
judgments, apart from those involving estimates and assumptions, in applying
accounting policies. The most significant judgments in preparing the Companys
financial statements include:
- |
assessment of the Companys ability to continue as a
going concern and whether there are events or conditions that may give
rise to significant uncertainty; and |
|
|
- |
classification/ allocation of expenditures as exploration
and evaluation assets or operating expenses. |
ITEM
1.13 CHANGES
IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Accounting standards issued but not yet effective
New standard IFRS 9 Financial Instruments
This new standard is a partial replacement of IAS 39 Financial
Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS 9 introduces new requirements
for the classification and measurement of financial assets, additional changes
relating to financial liabilities, a new general hedge accounting standard which
will align hedge accounting more closely with risk management. The new standard
also requires a single impairment method to be used, replacing the multiple
impairment methods in IAS 39. IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning
on or after January 1, 2018 with early adoption permitted.
New standard IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with
Customers
This new standard contains a single model that applies to
contracts with customers and two approaches to recognizing revenue: at a point
in time or over time. The model features a contract-based five-step analysis of
transactions to determine whether, how much and when revenue is recognized. New
estimates and judgmental thresholds have been introduced, which may affect the
amount and/or timing of revenue recognized. IFRS 15 is effective for annual
periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017 with early adoption permitted.
The Company has not early adopted these standards and is
currently assessing the impact that these standards will have on its financial
statements.
Other accounting standards or amendments to existing accounting
standards that have been issued but have future effective dates are either not
applicable or are not expected to have a significant impact on the Companys
financial statements.
ITEM
1.14. FINANCIAL
INSTRUMENTS AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Company is exposed in varying degrees to financial
instrument related risks. The Board of Directors approves and monitors the risk
management processes, inclusive of documented investment policies, counterparty
limits, and controlling and reporting structures. The type of risk exposure and
the way in which such exposure is managed is provided as follows:
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one
party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause
the other party to incur a financial loss. The Companys primary exposure to
credit risk is on its cash held in bank accounts and its credit and security
deposit. The Companys cash and credit card deposit are deposited in bank
accounts held with one major bank in Canada so there is a concentration of credit risk. This risk is managed by using a major bank that
is a high credit quality financial institution as determined by rating
agencies.

Management Discussion and
Analysis
Year Ended January 31, 2015
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 has a planning and budgeting process in place to help determine
the funds required to support the Companys normal operating requirements on an
on-going basis. The Company ensures there are sufficient funds to meet
short-term business requirements, taking into account its current cash position
and potential funding sources.
Historically, the Company's source of funding has been either
the issuance of equity securities for cash through private placements or loans
from Company directors and officers. The Companys access to financing is always
uncertain and there can be no assurance of continued access to significant
funding from these sources.
Foreign exchange risk
Foreign currency risk is
the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument
will fluctuate because they are denominated in currencies that differ from the
Companys functional currency. The Company only operates in Canada and is
therefore not exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from transactions
denominated in a foreign currency.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future
cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market
interest rates. The Companys exposure to interest rate risk relates to its
ability to earn interest income on cash balances at variable rates. Changes in
short term interest rates will not have a significant effect on the fair value
of the Companys cash account.
Commodity Price Risk
The Companys ability to
raise capital to fund exploration or development activities is subject to risks
associated with fluctuations in the market price of gold, silver and molybdenum.
The Company closely monitors commodity prices to determine the most appropriate
course of actions.

1.15 OTHER MD&A
REQUIREMENTS
Managements Responsibility for Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation
of the Companys financial statements in accordance with IFRS, and for such
internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation
of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to
fraud or error.
Conflicts of interest
The Companys directors
and officers may serve as directors or officers, or may be associated with,
other reporting companies, or have significant shareholdings in other public
companies. To the extent that such other companies may participate in business
or asset acquisitions, dispositions, or ventures in which the Company may
participate, the directors and officers of the Company may have a conflict of
interest in negotiating and concluding on terms with respect to the transaction.
If a conflict of interest arises, the Company will follow the provisions of the
Business Corporations Act (BC) (Corporations Act) dealing with conflict of
interest. These provisions state that where a director has such a conflict, that
director must, at a meeting of the Companys directors, disclose his or her
interest and refrain from voting on the matter unless otherwise permitted by the
Corporations Act. In accordance with the laws of the Province of British
Columbia, the directors and officers of the Company are required to act
honestly, in good faith, and in the best interest of the Company.
Business and Regulatory Risks
We are engaged
in the mineral exploration business and manage related industry risk directly.
We are potentially at risk for environmental reclamation and fluctuations and
commodity-based market prices associated with resource property interests.
Management is of the opinion that the Company addresses environmental risk and
compliance in accordance with industry standards and specific project
environmental requirements. At present, the Company is not required to provide
for restoration and environmental obligations so no provision has been made.
However, there is no certainty that all environmental risks and contingencies
have been addressed.
Our exploration program will require significant future
expenditures and there is no assurance any commercial mineral quantities will be
found. If we are unable to generate significant revenues from our mineral
claims, continued losses are expected into the foreseeable future. There is no
history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood we will prove
successful, and there is no assurance that we will generate any revenues nor
ever achieve profitability. If unsuccessful in addressing these risks, the
business will fail and investors could lose all of their investment in the
company.
Regulatory risks include the possible delays in getting
regulatory approval to the transactions that senior management and the Board of
Directors believe to be in the Companys best interest, increased fees for
statutory filings, and the introduction of increasingly more complex reporting
requirements which must be complied with in order to maintain our public company
position.

Cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements
This Management Discussion and Analysis may contain certain
forward-looking statements, as defined in the United States Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and within the meaning of Canadian securities
legislation, relating to the proposed use of proceeds. Forward-looking
statements are statements that are not historical facts; they are generally, but
not always, identified by the words expects, plans, anticipates,
believes, intends, estimates, projects, aims, potential, goal,
objective, prospective, and similar expressions, or that events or
conditions will, would, may, can, could or should occur.
Forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, estimates and opinions of the Companys management on the date
the statements are made and they involve a number of risks and uncertainties.
Consequently, there can be no assurances that such statements will prove to be
accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those
anticipated in such statements. Factors that could cause future results to
differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements
include, but are not limited to, the following: a change in the use of proceeds,
the volatility of mineral prices, the possibility that exploration efforts will
not yield economically recoverable quantities of minerals, accidents and other
risks associated with mineral exploration and development operations, the risk
that the Company will encounter unanticipated geological factors, the Companys
need for and ability to obtain additional financing, the possibility that the
Company may not be able to secure permitting and other governmental clearances
necessary to carry out the Companys exploration and development plans, and the
other risk factors discussed in greater detail in the Companys various filings
on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) with Canadian securities regulators and its filings
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on EDGAR (www.sec.gov). Readers are cautioned not to place undue
reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date
hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly release the results of any
revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events
or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events.
