Significant Acquisitions

During the year ended April 30, 2021, the Company did not complete any significant acquisitions for which disclosure is required under Part 8 of National Instrument 51-102.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

General Description of the Business

Business of the Company

As of the date of this AIF, the primary business of the Company is the exploration and development of the Panuco-Copala Property.

Specialized Skill and Knowledge

A number of aspects of the Company's business require specialized skills and knowledge. Such skills and knowledge include the areas of geology, drilling, logistical planning, geophysics, metallurgy and mineral processing, implementation of exploration programs, mine construction and operation, and accounting. While recent increased activity in the resource mining industry has made it more difficult to locate competent employees and consultants in such fields, the Company has found that it can locate and retain such employees and consultants and believes it will continue to be able to do so.

Competitive Conditions

As a mineral exploration and development company, the Company may compete with other entities in the mineral exploration and development business in various aspects of the business including: (a) seeking out and acquiring mineral exploration and development properties; (b) obtaining the resources necessary to identify and evaluate mineral properties and to conduct exploration and development activities on such properties; and (c) raising the capital necessary to fund its operations. The mining industry is intensely competitive in all its phases, and the Company may compete with other companies that have greater financial resources and technical facilities. Competition could adversely affect the Company's ability to acquire suitable properties or prospects in the future or to raise the capital necessary to continue with operations.

Cycles

The mineral exploration business is subject to mineral price cycles. The marketability of minerals and mineral concentrates and the ability to finance the Company on favourable terms is also affected by worldwide economic cycles.

-10-

Environmental Protection

The Company is subject to the laws and regulations relating to environmental matters in all jurisdictions in which it operates, including provisions relating to property reclamation, discharge of hazardous materials and other matters.

The Company may also be held liable should environmental problems be discovered that were caused by former owners and operators of its properties. The Company conducts its mineral exploration activities in compliance with applicable environmental protection legislation. The Company is not aware of any existing environmental problems related to any of its properties that may result in material liability to the Company.

Employees

As of April 30, 2021, the Company had two full-time employees and four consultants at its head office in Vancouver, Canada. The Company had sixty-one full-time employees and seventeen consultants at its offices in Mazatlán, Mexico.

Foreign Operations

The Panuco-Copala Property is the Company's material property. The Panuco-Copala Property is located in Sinaloa, Mexico. As such, the Company's operations and investments may be affected by local political and economic developments, including expropriation, invalidation of government orders, permits or agreements pertaining to property rights, political unrest, labour disputes, limitations on repatriation of earnings, limitations on mineral exports, limitations on foreign ownership, inability to obtain or delays in obtaining necessary mining permits, opposition to mining from local, environmental or other non-governmental organizations, government participation, royalties, duties, rates of exchange, high rates of inflation, price controls, exchange controls, currency fluctuations, taxation and changes in laws, regulations or policies as well as by laws and policies of Canada affecting foreign trade, investment and taxation.

Bankruptcy and Similar Procedures

There is no bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings against the Company, nor is the Company aware of any such pending or threatened proceedings. There have not been any voluntary bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings by the Company within the three most recently completed financial years or currently proposed for the current financial year.

Reorganizations

There have been no material reorganizations of or involving the Company within the three most recently completed financial years or currently proposed for the current financial year.

Social or Environmental Policies

At its current stage of development and activities (i.e., drilling, prospecting and development), the Company has limited financial obligations in meeting applicable environmental standards. This will change as the Company advances its projects. Environmental regulations that are applicable to the Company cover a wide variety of matters, including, without limitation, prevention of waste, pollution and protection of the environment, labour regulations and worker safety. While the Company does not currently expect the impact of costs and other effects related to compliance with environmental, health and safety regulations to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations, such regulations are evolving in a manner which is likely to result in stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and their directors and employees. Such stricter standards could impact the Company's costs and have an adverse effect on results of operations. Furthermore, an environmental, safety or security incident could impact the Company's reputation in such a way that the result could have a material adverse effect on its business and on the value of its securities.

-11-

Risk Factors

The Company is in the business of acquiring, exploring and, if warranted, developing and exploiting natural resource properties. Due to the nature of the Company's proposed business and the present stage of exploration of its mineral properties, the following risk factors, among others, will apply:

Resource Exploration and Development is a Speculative Business

Resource exploration and development is a speculative business and involves a high degree of risk, including, among other things, unprofitable efforts resulting not only from the failure to discover mineral deposits but from finding mineral deposits which, though present, are insufficient in size to return a profit from production. The marketability of natural resources that may be acquired or discovered by the Company will be affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company. These factors include market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of natural resource markets, government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land use, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but the combination of these factors may result in the Company not receiving an adequate return on invested capital.

Substantial expenditures are required to establish ore reserves through drilling and metallurgical and other testing techniques, determine metal content and metallurgical recovery processes to extract metal from the ore, and construct, renovate or expand mining and processing facilities. No assurance can be given that any level of recovery of ore reserves will be realized or that any identified mineral deposit, even it is established to contain an estimated resource, will ever qualify as a commercial mineable ore body which can be legally and economically exploited. The great majority of exploration projects do not result in the discovery of commercially mineable deposits of ore.

Fluctuation of Metal Prices

Even if commercial quantities of mineral deposits are discovered by the Company, there is no guarantee that a profitable market will exist for the sale of the metals produced. Factors beyond the control of the Company may affect the marketability of any substances discovered. The prices of various metals have experienced significant movement over short periods of time and are affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company, including international economic and political trends, expectations of inflation, currency exchange fluctuations, interest rates and global or regional consumption patterns, speculative activities and increased production due to improved mining and production methods. The supply of and demand for metals are affected by various factors, including political events, economic conditions and production costs in major producing regions. There can be no assurance that the price of any commodities will be such that any of the properties in which the Company has, or has the right to acquire, an interest may be mined at a profit.

Financing Risks

Although the Company has been successful in the past in obtaining financing through the sale of equity securities, there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that the terms of such financing will be favorable. Failure to obtain such additional financing could result in delay or indefinite postponement of further exploration and development of its projects with the possible loss of such properties.

-12-

Increased Costs

Management anticipates that costs at the Company's projects will frequently be subject to variation from one year to the next due to a number of factors, such as the results of ongoing exploration activities (positive or negative), changes in the nature of mineralization encountered, and revisions to exploration programs, if any, in response to the foregoing. Increases in the prices of such commodities or a scarcity of consultants or drilling contractors could render the costs of exploration programs to increase significantly over those budgeted. A material increase in costs for any significant exploration programs could have a significant effect on the Company's operating funds and ability to continue its planned exploration programs.

Reclamation

There is a risk that monies allotted for land reclamation may not be sufficient to cover all risks, due to changes in the nature of the waste rock or tailings and/or revisions to government regulations. Therefore, additional funds, or reclamation bonds or other forms of financial assurance may be required over the tenure of any mineral project of the Company to cover potential risks. These additional costs may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

Mining Industry is Intensely Competitive

The Company's business of the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties is intensely competitive. Increased competition could adversely affect the Company's ability to attract necessary capital funding or acquire suitable producing properties or prospects for mineral exploration in the future.

Permits and Licenses

The operations of the Company will require licenses and permits from various governmental authorities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain all necessary licenses and permits that may be required to carry out exploration, development and mining operations at its projects, on reasonable terms or at all. Delays or a failure to obtain such licenses and permits or a failure to comply with the terms of any such licenses and permits that the Company does obtain, could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Government Regulation

Any exploration, development or mining operations carried on by the Company, will be subject to government legislation, policies and controls relating to prospecting, development, production, environmental protection, mining taxes and labour standards. In addition, the profitability of any mining prospect is affected by the market for precious and/or base metals which is influenced by many factors including changing production costs, the supply and demand for metals, the rate of inflation, the inventory of metal producing corporations, the political environment and changes in international investment patterns.

Environmental Restrictions

The activities of the Company are subject to environmental regulations promulgated by government agencies in different countries from time to time. Environmental legislation generally provides for restrictions and prohibitions on spills, releases or emissions into the air, discharges into water, management of waste, management of hazardous substances, protection of natural resources, antiquities and endangered species and reclamation of lands disturbed by mining operations. Certain types of operations require the submission and approval of environmental impact assessments. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner which means stricter standards, and enforcement, fines and penalties for non-compliance are more stringent. Environmental assessments of proposed projects carry a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and directors, officers and employees. The cost of compliance with changes in governmental regulations has a potential to reduce the profitability of operations.

-13-

Public Health Crises, including the COVID-19 Pandemic

COVID-19 has threatened a slowdown in the global economy as well as caused volatility in the global financial markets. While the full impact of COVID-19 on the global economy is uncertain, the rapid spread of COVID-19 may have an adverse effect on the Company's financial position. The extent to which COVID-19 may impact the Company's business will depend on future developments such as the geographic spread of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, travel restrictions, physical distancing, business closures or business disruptions and the effectiveness of actions taken in Canada and other countries to contain and treat the disease. Although it is not possible to reliably estimate the length or severity of these developments and their financial impact as of the date of approval of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, continuation of the prevailing conditions could have a significant adverse impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations for future periods.

Foreign Countries and Political Risk

Any changes in regulations or shifts in political conditions are beyond the control of the Company and may adversely affect its business, or if significant enough, may make it impossible to continue to operate in the country. Operations may be affected in varying degrees by government regulations with respect to restrictions on production, price controls, foreign exchange restrictions, export controls, income taxes, expropriation of property, environmental legislation and mine safety.

Title Matters

Although the Company has taken steps to verify the title to the mineral properties in which it has or has a right to acquire an interest in accordance with industry standards for the current stage of exploration of such properties, these procedures do not guarantee title (whether of the Company or of any underlying vendor(s) from whom the Company may be acquiring its interest). Title to mineral properties may be subject to unregistered prior agreements or transfers and may also be affected by undetected defects or the rights of indigenous peoples. The Company has investigated title to all of its mineral properties and, to the best of its knowledge, title to all of its properties for which titles have been issued are in good standing.

Exploration and Mining Risks

Fires, power outages, labour disruptions, flooding, explosions, cave-ins, landslides and the inability to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment or labour are other risks involved in the operation of mines and the conduct of exploration programs. Substantial expenditures are required to establish reserves through drilling, to develop metallurgical processes, to develop the mining and processing facilities and infrastructure at any site chosen for mining. Although substantial benefits may be derived from the discovery of a major mineralized deposit, no assurance can be given that minerals will be discovered in sufficient quantities to justify commercial operations or that funds required for development can be obtained on a timely basis. The economics of developing mineral properties is affected by many factors including the cost of operations, variations of the grade of ore mined, fluctuations in the price of gold or other minerals produced, costs of processing equipment and such other factors as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection. In addition, the grade of mineralization ultimately mined may differ from that indicated by drilling results and such differences could be material. Short term factors, such as the need for orderly development of ore bodies or the processing of new or different grades, may have an adverse effect on mining operations and on the results of operations. There can be no assurance that minerals recovered in small scale laboratory tests will be duplicated in large scale tests under on-site conditions or in production scale operations. Material changes in geological resources, grades, stripping ratios or recovery rates may affect the economic viability of projects.

Regulatory Requirements

The activities of the Company are subject to extensive regulations governing various matters, including environmental protection, management and use of toxic substances and explosives, management of natural resources, exploration, development of mines, production and post-closure reclamation, exports, price controls, taxation, regulations concerning business dealings with indigenous peoples, labour standards on occupational health and safety, including mine safety, and historic and cultural preservation. Failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations may result in civil or criminal fines or penalties, enforcement actions thereunder, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment, or remedial actions, any of which could result in the Company incurring significant expenditures. The Company may also be required to compensate those suffering loss or damage by reason of a breach of such laws, regulations or permitting requirements. It is also possible that future laws and regulations, or more stringent enforcement of current laws and regulations by governmental authorities, could cause additional expense, capital expenditures, restrictions on or suspension of the Company's operations and delays in the exploration and development of the Company's properties.

No Assurance of Profitability

The Company has no history of earnings and, due to the nature of its business there can be no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable. The Company has not paid dividends on its Common Shares since incorporation and does not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future. The only present source of funds available to the Company is from the sale of its Common Shares or, possibly, from the sale or optioning of a portion of its interest in its mineral properties. Even if the results of exploration are encouraging, the Company may not have sufficient funds to conduct the further exploration that may be necessary to determine whether or not a commercially mineable deposit exists. While the Company may generate additional working capital through further equity offerings or through the sale or possible syndication of its properties, there can be no assurance that any such funds will be available on favorable terms, or at all. At present, it is impossible to determine what amounts of additional funds, if any, may be required. Failure to raise such additional capital could put the continued viability of the Company at risk.

Uninsured or Uninsurable Risks

Exploration, development and mining operations involve various hazards, including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, metallurgical and other processing problems, unusual or unexpected rock formations, structural cave-ins or slides, flooding, fires, metal losses and periodic interruptions due to inclement or hazardous weather conditions. These risks could result in damage to or destruction of mineral properties, facilities or other property, personal injury, environmental damage, delays in operations, increased cost of operations, monetary losses and possible legal liability. The Company may not be able to obtain insurance to cover these risks at economically feasible premiums or at all. The Company may elect not to insure where premium costs are disproportionate to the Company's perception of the relevant risks. The payment of such insurance premiums and of such liabilities would reduce the funds available for exploration and production activities.

-15-

Potential Conflicts of Interest

The directors and officers of the Company may serve as directors and/or officers for other public and private companies, including companies in which the Company has invested in, and may devote a portion of their time to manage other business interests. This may result in certain conflicts of interest. To the extent that such other companies may participate in ventures in which the Company is also participating, and to the extent that such companies may receive funds from the Company, such directors and officers of the Company may have a conflict of interest in negotiating and reaching an agreement with respect to the extent of each company's participation. The Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), which governs the Company, requires the directors and officers to act honestly, in good faith, and in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. However, in conflict of interest situations, directors and officers of the Company may owe the same duty to another company and will need to balance the competing obligations and liabilities of their actions. There is no assurance that the needs of the Company will receive priority in all cases. From time to time, several companies may participate together in the acquisition, exploration and development of natural resource properties, thereby allowing these companies to: (i) participate in larger programs; (ii) acquire an interest in a greater number of programs; and (iii) reduce their financial exposure to any one program. A particular company may assign, at its cost, all or a portion of its interests in a particular program to another affiliated company due to the financial position of the Company making the assignment. In determining whether or not the Company will participate in a particular program and the interest therein to be acquired by it, it is expected that the directors and officers of the Company will primarily consider the degree of risk to which the Company may be exposed and its financial position at that time.

Key Executives and Outside Consultants

The Company is dependent upon the services of key executives, including the directors of the Company, and will be dependent on a small number of highly skilled and experienced executives and personnel if development plans progress at the Panuco-Copala Property. Due to the relatively small size of the Company, the loss of these persons or the inability of the Company to attract and retain additional highly-skilled employees may adversely affect its business and future operations.

The Company has also relied upon outside consultants, geologists, engineers and others and intends to rely on these parties for their exploration and development expertise. Substantial expenditures are required to construct mines, to establish mineral resources and reserves estimates through drilling, to carry out environmental and social impact assessments, to develop metallurgical processes and to develop the development, exploration and plant infrastructure at any particular site. If such parties' work is deficient or negligent or is not completed in a timely manner, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

Litigation

Defense and settlement costs of legal claims can be substantial, even with respect to claims that have no merit. Like most companies, the Company is subject to the threat of litigation and may be involved in disputes with other parties in the future which may result in litigation or other proceedings. The results of litigation or any other proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. If the Company is unable to resolve these disputes favourably, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

-16-

Potential Volatility of Market Price of Common Shares and Related Litigation Risks

Securities of publicly listed companies such as the Company have, from time to time, experienced significant price and volume fluctuations unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the Common Shares. In addition, the market price of the Common Shares is likely to be highly volatile. Factors such as gold prices, the average volume of shares traded, announcements by competitors, changes in stock market analysts' recommendations regarding the Company and general market conditions and attitudes affecting other exploration and mining companies may have a significant effect on the market price of the Company's Common Shares. It is likely that the Company's results or development and exploration activities may fluctuate significantly or may fail to meet the expectations of stock market analysts and investors and, in such event, the market price of the Common Shares could be materially adversely affected. In the past, securities class action litigation has often been initiated following periods of volatility in the market price of a company's securities. Such litigation, if brought against the Company, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management's attention and resources, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial position and results of operations.

Future Sales of Common Shares by Existing Shareholders

Sales of a large number of common shares in the public markets, or the potential for such sales, could decrease the trading price of the common shares and could impair the Company's ability to raise capital through future sales of common shares. The Company has previously completed private placements at prices per share which may be, from time to time, lower than the market price of the common shares. Accordingly, a significant number of the Company's shareholders at any given time may have an investment profit in the common shares that they may seek to liquidate.

Dividend Policy

No dividends on the Common Shares have been paid by the Company to date. The Company currently plans to retain all future earnings and other resources, if any, of the future operation and development of its business. Payment of any future dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of the Company's board of directors (the "Board") after taking into account many factors, including the Company's operating results, financial condition and current and anticipated cash needs.

The Company's management consider the risks disclosed to be the most significant to potential investors of the Company, but not all risks associated with an investment in securities of the Company. If any of these risks materialize into actual events or circumstances or other possible additional risks and uncertainties of which the directors are currently unaware or which they consider not to be material in relation to the Company's business, actually occur, the Company's assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations (including future results of operations), business and business prospects, are likely to be materially and adversely affected. In such circumstances, the price of the Company's securities could decline and investors may lose all or part of their investment.

Material Mineral Projects

As at the date of this AIF, the Panuco-Copala Property is the Company's only material property.

The Panuco-Copala Property

In accordance with the instructions set out in Section 5.4 of Form 51-102F2 - Annual Information Form, the Company has reproduced below the summary from the Technical Report on the Panuco-Copala Property dated with an effective date of March 1, 2022 and prepared for the Company by Tim Maunula, P.Geo, . of T. Maunula & Associates Consulting Inc. ("TMAC") and Kevin Murray, P.Eng. of Ausenco Engineering Canada Inc. ("Ausenco"). Reference should be made to the full text of the Technical Report, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this AIF, and which is available for review under the Company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Property Description, Location, and Ownership

The Panuco-Copala Property is in the Panuco-Copala mining district in the municipality of Concordia, southern Sinaloa state, along the western margin of the Sierra Madre Occidental physiographic province in western Mexico. The Panuco-Copala Property is centred at 23 18' north latitude and 105 56' west longitude on map sheets F13A-37. The Panuco-Copala Property comprises 105 approved mining concessions in nineteen blocks, covering a total area of 5,433 hectares (ha), and two applications for two mineral concessions covering 1,321.15 ha. The mineral concessions are held 100% by the Company.

Accessibility, Local Resources, and Infrastructure

The Panuco-Copala Property area is accessed heading east from Mazatlán via Federal Highway 15 to Villa Union, then east on Highway 40 for 56 km (one-hour drive). Highway 40 crosscuts the Panuco-Copala Property area and most of the vein structures. Toll Highway 40D also crosses the Project. In addition, local dirt roads provide access to most of the workings, but some require repairs or are overgrown, and four-wheel-drive vehicles are recommended in the wet season. Two power lines connecting Durango and Mazatlán cross the Project, with 400 kV and 240 kV capacities.

The Panuco-Copala Property is in the Concordia municipality, which has a population of approximately 27,000. Public services, including health clinics and police, are in the town of Concordia. Residents provide an experienced mine labour force. Contractors in Durango and Hermosillo have a strong mining tradition and provide the Panuco-Copala Property with a local source of knowledgeable labour and contract mining services.

Geology Setting

Regional Geology

The Panuco-Copala Property is on the western margin of the Sierra Madre Occidental (SMO), a high plateau and physiographic province that extends from the U.S.A.-Mexico border to the east-trending Trans- Mexican Volcanic Belt. The SMO is an igneous province recording continental magmatic activity from the Late Cretaceous to the Miocene; it has been divided into two main episodes. The first episode, termed the Lower Volcanic Complex (LVC), comprises an intermediate intrusive suite including the Sonora, Sinaloa, and Jalisco batholiths and associated volcanic components of the Tarahumara Formation in Sonora, and equivalent volcanic rocks in the Jalisco block. This period of magmatic activity is associated with the Laramide orogeny and occurred from 80 to 50 million years ago (Ma).

The second magmatic episode is dominated by rhyolitic ignimbrites that built one of the earth's largest silicic volcanic provinces and has been termed the Upper Volcanic Supergroup (UVS). These dominantly rhyolitic lavas were extruded in two episodes, from about 35 to 29 Ma and 24 to 20 Ma. The western part of the SMO is cut by normal fault systems associated with the Gulf of California rift zone and subsequent extensional basins that developed between about 27 and 15 Ma containing continental sedimentary rocks. The continental sedimentary rocks occur in a north-northwesttrending belt extending from western Sonora to most of Sinaloa.

-18-

The basement to the SMO is locally exposed in Sinaloa. It comprises folded metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks, deformed granitoids., phyllitic sandstones, quartzites, and schists ranging from Jurassic to Early Cretaceous (Montoya-Lopera et al., 2019).

Mineralization

Mineralization on the Panuco-Copala Property comprises several epithermal quartz veins. The Company and previous workers have traced approximately 75 km of cumulative strike length of these veins. Individual vein corridors are up to 7.6 km long and range from decimetres to greater than 10 m wide. Veins have narrow envelopes of silicification, and local argillic alteration is commonly in contact with clay gouge. More distal alteration comprises propylitic alteration as chlorite.

The Mineral Resource includes eight mineralized vein systems grouped as domains: the Napoleon, Josephine, Napoleon hanging wall veins; the Tajitos, Vein 3, and Copala veins; the San Antonio vein; and the Rosarito vein. These domains are west to east within the Napoleon, Cinco Senores, Cordon del Oro, and Animas-Refugio corridors. The bulk of the resource veins strike north-northwest to north-northeast, with thicknesses varying from sub-metres to tens of metres.

Exploration

The Company commenced exploration on its Panuco-Copala Property in July 2019. This work has comprised geological mapping, rock geochemical sampling, geophysical surveys, and diamond drilling, and has outlined numerous targets for further testing.

Geological mapping and prospecting are key ongoing processes in exploring and understanding the geology of the Panuco-Copala Property. Rock and soil sampling is usually conducted in conjunction with geological mapping and prospecting. Overall, 3,777 rock samples have been collected from surface and underground exposures.

Geophysics has been a tool to help identify targets on the Panuco-Copala Property. Techniques used on the property include airborne magnetics producing first derivative, residual-signal, reverse to pole, and analytical signal maps. Electromagnetic surveys have also been conducted on the property. In addition to the magnetic surveys, The Company has been collecting magnetic susceptibility readings from most of the drill core. Electromagnetic surveys have also been used for exploration and targeting.

Drilling

Since November 2019, twenty-two prospects have been drill-tested. They are Los Generales, Rosarito, Cuevillas, La Negra, Josephine, Ojo de Agua, La Pipa, Mariposa, Paloma, Honduras, San Carlos, Tajitos, Peralta, Broche del Oro, Aguita Zarca, and the seven prospects making up the Napoleon vein- Gallinero Sur, Gallinero, Napoleon, Limoncito, Papayo, Venadillo, and Estrella.

The Mineral Resource database contains 442 holes, for 124,610.9 m of HQ- and NQ-diameter drilling, with less PQ-diameter drilling. The Company has continued to drill at the Panuco-Copala Property since the data cut off for the Mineral Resource estimate.

Sample Preparation, Analysis, and Security

The Company maintain their core logging facility and longer -term core storage area in Concordia, Sinaloa. Sample preparation is carried out at ALS in Zacatecas, and sample pulps are forwarded to ALS in North Vancouver for analysis. The ALS Zacatecas and North Vancouver facilities are ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 17025 certified.

-19-

Silver and base metals are analyzed using a four-acid digestion with an ICP finish as part of a geochemical suite (ALS Method Code ME-ICP61). Over-limit analyses for silver (>100 ppm), lead (>10,000 ppm), and zinc (>10,000 ppm) are re-assayed using an ore-grade four-acid digestion with AA finish (ALS Method Code OG62). For silver assays between 1500 ppm and 10,000 ppm, fire assay with gravimetric finish conducted on 30 g sample was used (ALS Method Code Ag-GRA21). Gold was assayed by 30 g fire assay with AA spectroscopy finish (ALS Method Code AuAA23). Gold over-limit values (>10 ppm) are retested with fire assay with gravimetric finish (ALS Method Code Au-GRA21).

Data Verification

TMAC conducted data verification during the Mineral Resource estimate. This included the built-in checks associated with importing data into GEMS, random checks of database assays compared with assay certificates, and review of the QA/QC performance. The data verification was supported by the site visit conducted between September 28, 2021 to October 1, 2021 (TMAC, 2021). Exploratory data analysis is an additional component of the data verification process.

Metallurgical Testwork

A metallurgical test program was developed on drill core samples taken from the Napoleon vein to support the Panuco-Copala Property evaluation. The testwork was carried out from August 2021 to January 2022 by ALS Metallurgy located in Kamloops, Canada.

The drill core sample used in the testing program consisted of 330 kg from 108, half HQ drill core intervals. A total of 11 composite samples were prepared from the drill core and used in the metallurgical testwork.

The rationale for sample selection considered primary lithologies, spatial coverage and representation, contiguous mineralization, distribution of grade and potential dilution. The selected mineralized drill holes were within the area of the potentially minable material and are believed to be representative of the material with a cut off grade of 127 g/t silver (Ag) and 2.77 g/t gold (Au).

The testwork was performed to characterize the mineralization chemically and mineralogically, as well as to test various flowsheets and methods for concentration and extraction of metals. The testwork program undertaken included:

  • Chemical and mineralogical analysis of the feed samples

  • Preliminary comminution test

  • Investigation of metal pre-concentration through flotation

  • Investigation of cyanidation leaching for the whole ore and bulk concentrates from flotation tests

  • Study of gold and silver gravity concentration.

These tests provided a basic understanding of the response from the samples to the test program and will allow for process options to be further evaluated in future work. Highlights of the conducted testwork include:

  • Gravity Recoverable Gold (GRG) testing yielded recovery of 29% Ag and 40% Au.

-20-

  • Open circuit rougher bulk flotation testing yielded recoveries of up to 93% for silver (Ag), 90% Au (Au), 94% lead (Pb), and 94% Zn (Zn).

  • Open circuit cleaner bulk flotation testing (with one cleaning stage) yielded recoveries of up to 89% Ag, 88% Au, 87% Pb, and 90% Zn, respectively.

  • Open circuit rougher sequential flotation testing has produced:

-Rougher lead concentrate with a recovery of 79% Ag; 80% Au; 93% Pb and 24% Zn, respectively.

-Rougher zinc concentrate with a recovery of up to 9% Ag; 8% Au; 3% Pb and 72% Zn, respectively

  • Open circuit cleaner bulk flotation testing (with one cleaning stage) has produced:

-Cleaner lead concentrate with a recovery of up to 71% Ag, 76% Au, 87% Pb, and 12% Zn.

-Cleaner zinc concentrate with a recovery of up to 8% Ag, 7% Au, 2% Pb, and 71% Zn.

  • Cyanide leaching of the bulk sulphide rougher concentrate exhibited recoveries of 80.5% for silver and 86.8% for the gold, respectively.

  • Direct cyanide whole ore leach tests yielded recoveries of up to 87% Ag and 93% Au after 48 hours retention time.

  • Cyanide leaching of the bulk sulphide rougher concentrate exhibited recoveries of 80.5% for silver and 86.8% for the gold, respectively.

Sequential lead/zinc flotation followed by cyanidation of a pyrite rougher concentrate have resulted in a combined flotation and leach recovery of 83% Ag and 87% Au, respectively.

Mineral Resource Estimates

TMAC prepared a maiden Mineral Resource estimate for the Panuco-Copala Property consisting of Indicated and Inferred Resources. Mr. Tim Maunula, P.Geo., Principal Geologist for TMAC, was the QP responsible for the completion of the 2022 Mineral Resource estimate for the Panuco-Copala Property . The effective date of the 2022 Mineral Resource estimate is March 1, 2022.

The 2022 Mineral Resource estimate is based on drill-hole data provided by the Company from surface diamond drill programs completed between 2019 and 2021. The cut-off date for assay data used in the 2022 Mineral Resource estimate was November 30, 2021.

The silver-gold-lead-zinc mineralization for the Panuco-Copala Property was modelled in four prospect areas of mineralization: Napoleon, Tajitos, Cordon del Oro and Animas. The mineralization was modelled in Seequent Leapfrog GEO v2021.1 (Leapfrog). Grades were estimated within each mineralization wireframe separately using Geovia GEMS 6.8.3 Desktop (GEMS).

Mineral Resource Statement

The maiden 2022 Mineral Resource estimate is reported in Table 1-1, as prepared by TMAC for the Panuco-Copala Property (effective date March 1, 2022).

-21-

The Mineral Resource estimates were classified according to the CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (CIM, 2014). The 2022 Mineral Resource estimate was reported at a 150.0 g/t AgEq cut-off grade for Mineral Resources which are amenable to underground extraction.

The cut-off grade used for the 2022 Mineral Resource estimates is 150.0 g/t AgEq based on the Company's estimated break-even operating expenditure cost of US$95/t. Assumed recoveries were 93% for silver, 90% for gold, and 94% for both lead and zinc. Mineral Resource estimates can be sensitive to the reporting cut-offs used.

Recommendations

Mineral Resource Recommendations

The maiden MRE and associated interpretated mineralization provides guidance for continued exploration of the Panuco-Copala Property . TMAC recommends the following work which can potentially improve upon the 2022 MRE:

  • Continue drilling on the four Prospect Areas targeting both infill to upgrade resource classification and step-out drilling to expand the Mineral Resource

  • Identify target areas in zones of mineralization outside of the four Prospect Areas to expand the Mineral Resource

  • Collect additional density samples of host lithologies and mineralization

  • Update topography using Lidar survey.

Operations Recommendations

Other engineering and processing work could be carried out to develop the Panuco-Copala Property . Ausenco recommends the following work:

-22-

  • Additional drilling to collect approximately 500 kg of core samples, spatially and lithologically representing the first five years of a potential mine plan.

  • Further metallurgical testwork to better understand the continuity of the Napoleon deposit regarding the metallurgical response and to optimize the flowsheet.

In addition, further engineering work including mine design and development are needed.

DIVIDENDS

The Company has not paid any dividends since incorporation and it has no plans to pay dividends for the foreseeable future. The directors of the Company will determine if and when dividends should be declared and paid in the future based on the Company's financial position at the relevant time. All of the Common Shares are entitled to an equal share of any dividends declared and paid.

CAPITAL STRUCTURE

Common Shares

The Company's authorized capital consists of an unlimited number of Common Shares without par value. As of April 30, 2021, a total of 94,068,744 Common Shares were issued and outstanding. As of the date of this AIF, a total of 148,288,357 Common Shares are issued and outstanding.

Each Common Share ranks equally with all other Common Shares with respect to dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company and payment of dividends. The holders of Common Shares are entitled to one vote for each share of record on all matters to be voted on by such holders and are entitled to receive pro rata such dividends as may be declared by the Board out of funds legally available therefore and to receive, pro rata, the remaining property of the Company on dissolution. The holders of Common Shares have no redemption, retraction, purchase, pre-emptive or conversion rights. The rights attaching to the Common Shares can only be modified by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the votes cast at a meeting of shareholders called for that purpose.

Warrants

There were 22,757,961 Common Share purchase warrants ("Warrants") outstanding as of April 30, 2021, exercisable into 22,757,961 Common Shares, with a weighted average exercise price of $1.86 per Common Share. As of the date of this AIF, there are 33,262,348 Warrants outstanding, exercisable into 33,262,348 Common Shares, with a weighted average exercise price of $2.77 per Common Share, which would result in $92,031,076 cash proceeds to the Company, if exercised.

Stock Options

The Company has approved an incentive share option plan (the "Stock Option Plan"), for the employees, directors, officers, consultants and employees of a person or company which provides management services to the Company or its associated, affiliated, controlled and subsidiary companies (the "Participants"), to grant such Participants stock options to acquire up to 10% of the Company's issued and outstanding Common Shares from time to time. This is a "rolling" plan as the number of shares reserved for issuance pursuant to the grant of stock options will increase as the Company's issued and outstanding share capital increases. The Stock Option Plan provides that the directors of the Company may grant options to purchase Common Shares on terms that the directors may determine, within the limitations of the Stock Option Plan. The exercise price of an option issued under the Stock Option Plan is determined by the directors but may not be less than the closing market price of the Common Shares on the day preceding the date of granting of the option less any available discount, in accordance with TSXV Policies. No option may be granted for a term longer than ten years. An option may expire on such earlier date or dates as may be fixed by the Board, subject to earlier termination in the event the optionee ceases to be eligible under the Stock Option Plan by reason of death, retirement or otherwise.

-23-

The Stock Option Plan provides for the following restrictions: (i) no Participant may be granted an option if that option would result in the total number of stock options granted to the Participant in the previous 12 months, exceeding 5% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares unless the Company has obtained disinterested shareholder approval in accordance with TSXV Policies; (ii) the aggregate number of options granted to Participants conducting Investor Relations Activities (as defined in TSXV Policies) in any 12 month period must not exceed 2% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, calculated at the time of grant; and (iii) the aggregate number of options granted to any one consultant in any 12 month period must not exceed 2% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, calculated at the time of grant.

In addition, options granted to consultants conducting Investor Relations Activities (as defined in TSXV Policies) will vest over a period of not less than 12 months as to 25% on the date that is three months from the date of grant, and a further 25% on each successive date that is three months from the date of the

previous vesting or such longer vesting.

There were 9,090,000 options outstanding as of April 30, 2021, exercisable into 6,509,000 Common Shares, with a weighted average exercise price of $1.00 per Common Share. As of the date of this AIF, there are 14,492,972 options outstanding, exercisable into 9,415,861 Common Shares with a weighted average exercise price of $1.41 per Common Share, which would result in $13,276,364 cash proceeds to the Company, if exercised. 4,145,000 options outstanding are exercisable into one Common Share for a period of nine years and are fully vested. 5,270,861 options outstanding are exercisable into one Common Share for a period of up to five years.
