General Discussion, page-1742

We expect our capital expenditures and working capital requirements to continue to increase materially in the near future as we seek to continue development of the Wolfsberg Project and the Tanbreez Project. Our actual future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the results of our DFSs and other studies, final investment decision ahead of the development and construction at the Wolfsberg Project, exploration activities in Zone 2 of the Wolfsberg Project and costs associated with maintaining the Wolfsberg Project site. Our near-term capital requirements with respect to the Tanbreez Project, in accordance with the Heads of Agreement, are expected to include, but not be limited to, mineral exploration and various test work, including metallurgical test work, engineering, geological and logistics studies, socio economic, community and environmental impacts assessments, and construction of roads and operational camps and sites. In addition, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur additional costs as a result of operating as a public company.

Substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued. We will continue efforts to remedy the conditions or events that raise this substantial doubt, however, as some components of these plans are outside of management’s control, we cannot offer any assurances they will be effectively implemented. We also cannot offer any assurance that any additional financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all. Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activities and the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. We cannot be sure that any additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms if at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected.
