Cash Position:
As of September 30, 2025, the Company held
$4,241,082
in cash and cash
equivalents.
Fees Earned:
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company's fee income,
which includes operator fees, option payments, interest, and miscellaneous income, totaled
$1,107,464
compared to $1,042,956 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The
increase of approximately 10% was primarily driven by fees earned in Q3 2025 for the rental of
passive seismic equipment and by higher option payments received.
Exploration Expenditures:
The exploration expenditures, the majority of which are funded by
partners, were lower for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 at
$4,885,987
compared to
$5,980,712 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, due to lower actual expenditures.
Recoveries from option partners during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024
amounted to
$3,984,257
and $5,154,147, resulting in net exploration costs of
$901,730
in 2025
and $825,565 in 2024.
Generative Expenditures:
The Company's net exploration costs mainly relate to Project
Generative operations, which involve exploring unpartnered projects and developing new
opportunities. These efforts aim to create projects that can generate payments, royalties, and other
fees by optioning mineral projects to third parties, while the Company actively seeks partners for
its listed Mundoro Projects.
Corporate Expenditures:
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company
recorded overall corporate expenses of
$1,034,157
as compared to $903,774 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2024.This difference is due primarily to an increase in corporate
governance expenses from an ongoing internal company reorganization and higher accounting
and audit fees.
Net Loss:
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded a net loss of
$952,269
($0.00 per share), compared to a net loss of $643,1411 ($0.00 per share) for the nine
months ended September 30, 2024, representing an increased loss of $309,158.
Q3-2025 Portfolio Updates and Outlook
BHP-Mundoro Central Timok JV (Serbia)
During the quarter, the Company's primary focus was the finalization of the definitive earn-in agreement.
Outlook & Future Plans (Q4-2025 - Q2-2026)
Following the signing of the agreement, the project is
transitioning into a targeting phase:
Joint Technical Working Group:
Mundoro and BHP have established a joint technical working
group to oversee exploration planning.
Data Integration & Targeting:
The primary objective for the upcoming quarters is the systematic
review of the historical datasets. The partners will work to integrate the geological models to "rank
and prioritize" drill targets across the seven licenses.
Drill Readiness:
Fieldwork will focus on ground-truthing priority anomalies to prepare a drill
program proposal for 2026.
BHP-Mundoro Borsko-South Timok-Trstenik JV (Serbia)
Borsko Project
Q3-2025 Exploration Highlights:
Activities in Q3 focused on testing new geophysical data and
rigorously standardizing geochemical data to facilitate vectoring:
Northwest Target Drill Testing:
Following the June 24, 2025 announcement, the Company
commenced and completed a maiden drill test of a new target area in the northwest portion of the
license. One diamond drill hole was completed to a depth of 1,000 meters. The drill hole provided
useful stratigraphic information with no significant mineralization.
Systematic Geochemical Consolidation:
To enhance vectoring capabilities, the Company
initiated an extensive re-assay program of historical drill pulps. Approximately 63% of the existing
sample library has now been re-assayed using modern, multi-element suites. This initiative will
harmonize the geochemical database, allowing for the calculation of key pathfinder element ratios
essential for navigating the hydrothermal system.
Outlook & Future Plans (Q4-2025 - Q2-2026)
The strategy for the upcoming quarters is to integrate
the drill results with new higher-resolution geophysics to refine the drill targets at Target 1:
Ground Magnetic Survey:
A Ground Magnetic survey commenced and concluded in October.
This survey is useful for identifying the demagnetized zones (associated with the phyllic alteration)
versus the magnetic highs (potential altered potassic porphyry cores) beneath the cover.
Drill Program Analysis & Age Dating:
A specific molybdenite sample from previous drill
campaigns will undergo Re-Os (Rhenium-Osmium) dating. This will provide the precise age of the
mineralization event, determining if it links to the main pulse of mineralization to adjacent systems.
Target 1 Drill Design:
By integrating the new magnetic model with the consolidated geochemical
vectors, the Company will prepare a detailed proposal for diamond drilling at Target 1. This
program will be designed to test the roots of the preserved lithocap for the interpreted mineralized
porphyry source.
Trstenik Project
Q3-2025 Exploration Highlights: Active Drilling & Target Refinement
During the quarter, the
Company successfully transitioned from permitting to active drill testing, while simultaneously advancing
the geological model for the southern targets:
Commencement of Drilling (North-Central Target):
Diamond drilling commenced on
September 14, 2025. As of the end of the quarter, the first drill hole had progressed to a depth of
441.6 meters of a targeted 900 meter drill hole
, targeting the depth extension of surface
geochemical anomalies.
Southern Target Integration:
The technical team completed a comprehensive data review for
the Southern Target area (adjacent to Majdanpek). This study integrated historical geophysics,
surface geochemistry, and spectral (SWIR) data from previous drilling. The analysis has
strengthened the vectoring model, highlighting specific zones where skarn mineralization may
transition into the porphyry core at the southeast target.
Outlook & Future Plans (Q4-2025 - Q2-2026)
The Company completed the current drill hole and will
finalize a 3D model for the high-priority Southern Targets:
North-Central Target Area Drill Program:
The completion of the current drilling program,
including downhole geophysics, is expected during Q4-2025, with full assays to be received by the
end of 2025.
Southern Targets 3D Modelling:
3D modelling of the southern targets is planned for Q4-2025 to
Q2-2026. This advanced modelling will enhance the visualization and understanding of the
mineralized system. Data analysis from the southern target area and refinement of the drilling
proposal are planned for Q4-2025 to Q2-2026.
South Timok Project
Q3-2025 Exploration Highlights: District-Scale Data Acquisition
Exploration activities during the
quarter focused on the systematic acquisition and integration of geophysical and structural data across
the project area:
Project-Wide Passive Seismic Deployment:
To accurately map the basement architecture and
cover thickness across the district, the Company initiated a large-scale passive seismic survey
around the end of August. By quarter end, the field team had successfully deployed a significant
portion of the planned nodal array. This survey is designed to define the "basement topography",
for targeting concealed intrusions in the Lipovica and Orlovac prospects.
Geophysical Inversion (AMT & Gravity):
Interpretation and inversion of Audio-Magnetotelluric
(AMT) and Gravity datasets were completed for all four licenses. These surveys have identified
multiple coincident anomalies characterized by resistivity lows (potential hydrothermal alteration)
and density contrasts (potential intrusive stocks), which are now being correlated across the
project area.
Structural & Geological Modelling:
The technical team advanced the construction of regional
geological cross-sections. This work integrates surface mapping from exposed outcrops with the
geophysical inversions to build a continuous 3D structural framework for the entire project area.
Outlook & Future Plans (Q4-2025): Integrated Targeting & Drill Definition
The primary objective
for Q4 is to integrate the newly acquired datasets into a unified 3D exploration model to define high-
confidence drill targets:
Seismic Processing & Basement Mapping:
Retrieval of the passive seismic array was
completed in mid-October. Data processing commenced, generating a project-wide depth-to-
basement model that will allow the team to refine targets for depth.
Integrated 3D Modelling:
The Company will complete a comprehensive 3D integration of the
Seismic (structure/depth), Gravity (intrusive bulk), and AMT (alteration) datasets.
Drill Program Proposal:
Based on the results of the integrated modelling, the Company will
finalize a drilling proposal for the South Timok Project Area in Q4. This proposal will detail collar
locations, target sequencing, and total meterage for a campaign designed to test the highest-
priority geophysical and geochemical anomalies across the contiguous project area. Once target
areas are identified the company will commence permitting.
JOGMEC-Mundoro Iskar (EE1) JV (Bulgaria)
Project Update (Q3-2025)
The Company previously received a positive "Appropriate Assessment" decision from the Ministry of
Environment and Water (MoEW). However, this decision was subject to a third-party NGO appeal.
Following a decision by the higher court in Q2 to remand the case for further review, the lower court
resumed proceedings in Q3. A court hearing is currently scheduled for Q4-2025.
Outlook & Future Plans (Q4-2025 - Q2-2026)
Legal Resolution:
The timeline for the resumption of fieldwork is dependent on the conclusion of
the court hearing and the finalization of the administrative permitting process.
Drill Program Execution:
Upon favorable resolution of the court hearing, the Company is
prepared to promptly move to the drill testing phase. The proposed program is designed to test the
conductive horizons identified by the AMT survey for stratiform copper mineralization. This drill
program represents the first modern test of a stratiform copper target in this specific district.

earn-in agreement to fund maiden shallow drilling of the covered targets. To broaden the search for
partners, management has finalized a technical presentation highlighting these defined targets.
The project is prepared for rapid permitting upon securing a partner.
Copperopolis Project (Arizona)
Exploration Activities (Q3-2025)
Integration of the stream sediment geochemistry results with the existing mapping allowed the
Company to refine the exploration model, specifically for under-cover porphyry and associated
systems.
Geochronology returned ages consistent with the Laramide magmatic event, confirming
the system is temporally analogous to the region's porphyry systems.
Outlook & Future Plans (Q4-2025 - Q1-2026)
Exploration through Q1-2026 focuses on defining drill targets by conducting infill sampling in Q4 to
tighten geochemical resolution and delineate anomalous Au-Cu zones. Concurrent fieldwork will
map prospective Northwest-trending anomalies, and the NE dike swarms. The team has also
finalized two new geological cross-sections incorporating sheeted dike orientations and
geochemical vectors, forming the basis of a new technical presentation to market the project to
potential partners.
