While the Company is not aware of any misstatements regarding any industry data presented herein, the industry involves risks and uncertainties and is subject to change based on various factors.

The Company is a mineral exploration and resource development company engaged in the business of acquiring, exploring and evaluating mineral properties, and either joint venturing, developing or disposing of the properties, when the evaluation is complete. The Company is currently focusing its resources in conducting exploration programs on its Maniitsoq Property, in Greenland, Sudbury, Ontario nickel properties being Post Creek and Halcyon and Section 35 being a property in the United States.

North American Nickel Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada, by filing of Memorandum and Articles of Association on September 20, 1983, under the name Rainbow Resources Ltd. The company’s name was changed to Widescope Resources Ltd. on May 1, 1984, and to Gemini Technology Inc. on September 17, 1985. In conjunction with a reverse split of its common shares on a five-old for one-new basis, the Company adopted the name International Gemini Technology Inc., effective September 23, 1993. The Company’s name was changed to Widescope Resources Inc., effective July 12, 2006. Effective April 19, 2010, the Company’s shareholders approved a special resolution to reorganize the Company’s capital structure by consolidating in a reverse stock split the existing common shares on the basis of every 2 old shares being equal to 1 new share and concurrently increasing the authorized capital of the Company from 100,000,000 common shares without par value to an unlimited number of common shares without par value. Also effective this date, the Company’s name was changed to North American Nickel Inc. to reflect its new focus. All references to common shares, stock options, warrants and weighted average number of shares outstanding in this discussion and the accompanying consolidated financial statements retroactively reflect the share consolidation unless otherwise noted.

In April 2010, the Company initiated a series of actions to realign its focus into the field of nickel exploration in the prolific nickel belts around Sudbury, Ontario and Thompson, Manitoba. Concurrently, the directors of the Company appointed new senior management to oversee the daily operations of the Company.

On May 3, 2011, the Company’s listing application was conditionally accepted by the TSX-V Venture Exchange. On May 30, 2011, the common shares of the Company began trading under the symbol “NAN”.

On August 15, 2011, the Company was granted an exploration license by the Bureau of Minerals and Petroleum of Greenland for exclusive exploration rights over an area totalling 4,841 square kilometres located near Sulussugut, Greenland.

On March 4, 2012, the Company was granted an additional exploration license by the Bureau of Minerals and Petroleum of Greenland for exclusive exploration rights over an area covering a total of 142 square kilometres license and located near Ininngui, Greenland.

On January 19, 2015, the Company signed an exclusivity agreement with Minelco AS (“Minelco”) to acquire the deepwater Seqi Port (the “Port”). Minelco granted to the Company the right to proceed with a due diligence process on the Port and to negotiate exclusively with Minelco in relation to this transaction according to the terms set out in the agreement. During the exclusivity period, Minelco provided the Company with access to its facilities, personnel, books, records and documents to allow the Company to conduct the due diligence process for the purpose of evaluating the transaction and use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide all documents and information requested by the Company. On March 31, 2015, Minelco and the Company signed an assignment agreement for the Port. Under the terms of the agreement, Minelco will transfer to the Company all its rights, title, and interest in and to the Port. The assignment will, subject to the assumption of closure obligations of DKK 6,000,000 by the Company, be made free of charge with no consideration payable by the Company to Minelco. To date, the Company has completed a surface and underwater due diligence examination of the Seqi pier. Environmental due diligence and a preliminary assessment of reindeer was completed by Golder Associates – INUPLAN in and around the Port and a report has been completed. The Company upon review has determined not to continue with the Seqi Port assignment.

The business of the Company entails significant risks. Any analysis of the trend of the Company’s activities would reveal this and there is nothing to suggest that these trends will change.

The recoverability of amounts shown for mineral property costs is dependent upon a number of factors including environmental risk, legal and political risk, the existence of economically recoverable mineral reserves, confirmation of the Company’s interests in the underlying mineral claims, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to complete exploration and development, and to attain sufficient net cash flow from future profitable production or disposition proceeds. As of September 30, 2016, the Company had working capital of $5,208,705 (December 31, 2015 — $2,682,397) and a deficit of $23,350,086 (December 31, 2015 — $23,820,013). The Company has sufficient capital to continue its planned operations and to meet its obligations.

When managing capital, the Company’s objective is to ensure the entity continues as a going concern as well as to maintain optimal returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. Management adjusts the capital structure as necessary in order to support the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company’s management team to manage its capital.

The properties in which the Company currently has an interest are in the exploration stage. As such, the Company is dependent
on external financing to fund its activities. In order to carry out the planned exploration and pay for administrative costs, the Company will spend its existing working capital and raise additional amounts as needed. The Company will continue to assess new properties and seek to acquire interests in additional properties if there is sufficient geologic or economic potential and if it has adequate financial resources are available to do so. The Company has not yet determined whether these properties contain ore reserves that are economically recoverable.

All technical information in this document has been reviewed by Patricia Tirschmann, P. Geo, the qualified person for the Company under National Instrument 43-101.

The project is located adjacent to the coastline approximately 100 km north of Nuuk, the capital of Greenland (a safe, stable, mining-friendly jurisdiction) and covers numerous high-grade nickel-copper sulphide & PGM occurrences associated with norite and other mafic-ultramafic intrusions. The deep water coastline adjacent to Maniitsoq is typical of Greenland’s southwest coast which is free of pack ice with a year-round shipping season. The optimum shipping conditions are due to the Irminger current, a tributary of the warming Gulf Stream flowing continuously past the south west coastline of Greenland. The Company acquired the project because it believed that modern, time-domain, helicopter EM systems would be more effective at detecting nickel sulphide deposits in the rugged terrain of Maniitsoq than previous fixed wing geophysical surveys performed in the 1990’s. These earlier surveys detected a limited number of anomalies but none were drill tested by previous explorers. High powered helicopter TEM systems were not available in 1990’s and their availability now gives the Company a significant advantage over previous explorers.

Effective August 15, 2011, the Company was granted an exploration license (the “Sulussugut License”) by the Bureau of Minerals and Petroleum (“BMP”) of Greenland for exclusive exploration rights of an area located near Sulussugut, Greenland. The Company paid a license fee of $5,742 (Danish Krones (“DKK”) 31,400) upon granting of the Sulussugut License. The Sulussugut License was valid for 5 years until December 31, 2015, with December 31, 2011 being the first year providing the Company meets the terms of the license, which includes that specified eligible exploration expenditures must be made. The application for another 5 year term on the Sulussugut License was submitted to the Greenland Mineral Licence & Safety Authority (MLSA) which was effective on April 11, 2016, with December 31, 2016 being the sixth year.

The Greenland MLSA for the year 2016 has adjusted the minimum required exploration expenditures to zero. The accumulated exploration credits held at the end of 2015, DKK 100,303,710 can be carried forward until 2019. There will be an annual licence fee on the Sulussugut License for year 6 and forward of DKK 40,400.

In conjunction with the granting of the Sulussugut License, on August 12, 2011, the Company entered into an arm’s length Intellectual Property and Data Acquisition Agreement (the “IP Acquisition Agreement”) with Hunter Minerals Pty Limited (“Hunter”) and Spar Resources Pty Limited (“Spar”). Pursuant to the IP Acquisition Agreement, Hunter and Spar agreed to sell the IP Rights to the Company in consideration for the Company paying $300,000 in cash ($150,000 to each of Hunter and Spar which is paid) and the issuing of 12,960,000 share purchase warrants, 6,480,000 to each of Hunter and Spar exercisable for a period of five years expiring on August 30, 2016. The warrants were exercisable at the following prices, 4,750,000 of the warrants are at a price of $0.50 per share, 4,750,000 of the warrants are at a price of $0.70 per share and 3,460,000 of the warrants are at a price of $1.00 per share. The warrants were subject to an accelerated exercise provision in the event the Company relinquished its interests in the Maniitsoq Licenses or any other mineral titles held within a defined area of interest without receiving consideration for such relinquishment. The granted warrants were recorded at a fair value of $1,813,263 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. As of August 30, 2016 the warrants expired unexercised and the Company has reversed the fair value of $1,813,263 to deficit. Granting to each of Hunter and Spar or their designates a 1.25% net smelter returns royalty, subject to rights of NAN to reduce both royalties to a 0.5% net smelter returns royalty upon payment to each of Hunter and Spar (or their designates) of $1,000,000 on or before the 60^th day following a decision to commence commercial production on the mineral properties. On August 30, 2011 the Company issued 200,000 common shares at $0.14 per share for a value of $28,000 as a finder’s fee on the Greenland project.

Under the terms of the Sulussugut License, the Company was obligated to reduce the area of the license by at least 30% (1,452 square kilometres) by December 31, 2013. The Company completed this in 2013.

On the first 5 year license, the Company completed the exploration requirements of an estimated minimum of DKK 83,809,340 (approximately CDN $15,808,386) between the years ended December 31, 2011 to 2015 by incurring $26,110,746 on the Sulussugut License.

In 2015 there was an exploration commitment of DKK 21,668,160 (approximately CDN $4,394,303). The Company completed approved expenditures for 2015 of DKK 59,149,846 (approximately CDN $11,995,589). With a credit from 2014 of DKK 28,680,741 (approximately CDN $5,816,454) and commitment of DKK 21,668,160 leaves the Company with excess credits of DKK 100,303,710 (approximately CDN $20,341,592).

The required minimum exploration expenditures on the Sulussugut License for year 5, ending December 31, 2015 was based on an annual approximation of DKK 21,668,160 (approximately CDN $4,084,000). The Sulussugut License area was not reduced in 2015.

Effective March 4, 2012, the Company was granted an additional exploration license (the “Ininngui License”) by the BMP of Greenland for exclusive exploration rights over an area covering a total of 142 square kilometres The license is located near Ininngui, Greenland. The Company paid a license fee of DKK 32,200 upon granting of the Ininngui License. The Ininngui License is valid for 5 years until December 31, 2016, with December 31, 2012 being the first year. The Ininngui License is contiguous with the Sulussugut License.

The exploration commitment for 2016 provided the licence area is unchanged during 2016 will be calculated as follows:

On September 28, 2013, the Ininngui License was enlarged to 265 square kilometres at the Company’s request.

In June 2015, the Ininngui License was enlarged to 296 square kilometres at the Company’s request.

To September 30, 2016, the Company’s expenditures exceeded the minimum requirement and the Company has a surplus of DKK 11,602,095 (approximately CDN $2,187,256), and the Company was granted a credit for the excess, which may be used towards future expense requirements on the Ininngui License until years 2017 DKK 5,325,997 and 2018 DKK 6,276,098 and, should the Company be granted an extension on the exploration license.

For both licenses, future required minimum eligible exploration expenses will be adjusted each year on the basis of the change to the Danish Consumer Price Index.

Should the Company not incur the minimum eligible exploration expenses on either license in any one year from years 2-5, the Company can pay 50% of the difference in cash to MLSA as full compensation for that year. This procedure may not be used for more than 2 consecutive calendar years. To December 31, 2015, the Company has not used the procedure for either license.

The Company may apply for an additional 5 year term for either license following year five of the initial licence. At the expiration of the second licence period (years 6-10), the Company may apply for a new 3-year licence for years 11 to 13. Thereafter, the Company may apply for additional 3-year licences for years 14 to 16, 17 to 19 and 20 to 22. The Company will be required to pay additional license fees and will be obligated to incur minimum eligible exploration expenses for such years.

The Company may terminate the licenses at any time; however, any unfulfilled obligations applicable to the license will remain in force, regardless of the termination.

During the period 2012-2015:
Exploration in 2012 continued with the geophysical interpretation of data acquired in 2011. Three dimensional Maxwell models were established by Condor Consulting for the 25 anomalies defined by the 2011 airborne surveys and three of these were selected for priority follow-up prior to the first drill program on the property. Heliborne geophysical surveys by Geotech Ltd. totaling 3,532 line-kilometers over portions of mineral exploration licences 2011/54 and 2012/28 were continued in 2012. Preliminary interpretation of the data was completed August 13, 2012.

The intersection of high grade nickel – copper mineralization at Imiak Hill was announced in November. The mineralization intersected by hole MQ-12-001 averaged 1.36% nickel, 0.52% copper and 0.07% cobalt over 16.41 meters including 5.12 meters at 2.20% nickel, 0.55% copper and 0.07% cobalt. The mineralization in MQ-12-002 averaged 0.55% nickel, 0.20% copper and 0.02% cobalt over 66.08 meters and included 14.18 meters at 1.33% nickel, 0.38% copper and 0.04% cobalt. A new discovery of shallow nickel-copper-PGE mineralization was announced in December and included 123.94 meters averaging 0.81% nickel, 0.21% copper, 0.03% cobalt and 0.26 g/t platinum+ palladium+gold.

Assay and geochemical analyses on samples from the 2012 drilling program were completed in January 2013 and confirmed significant nickel + copper + cobalt + PGE mineralization at Imiak Hill and Spotty Hill. The 2013 Maniitsoq exploration plan consisting of 3,000 meters of diamond drilling, surface EM surveys and 550 line-km of heliborne geophysical surveys was finalized in May 2013.

Results from a QEMSCAN (Quantitative Evaluation of Materials by Scanning Electron Microscopy) study for three samples of mineralized drill core at Imiak Hill and Spotty Hill were announced in June. Results indicated that nickel was hosted primarily in pentlandite and that potential existed for good recovery of nickel and copper.

In August and September of 2013 the Company announced the intersection of massive to semi-massive sulphide mineralization at Imiak Hill. Hole MQ-13-026 intersected this mineralization between 142 and 159 m vertically below surface and subsequently hole MQ-13-028 extended the mineralization to 185 metres below surface.

Significant mineralization at Imiak North, 950 metres north northeast of Imiak Hill and 1200 metres northwest of Spotty Hill was announced in September. These three closely spaced mineralized zones are referred to as the Imiak Hill Complex (IHC). Later the same month a new discovery within the Fossilik norite intrusion situated approximately 9 kilometres from the IHC was announced. Hole MQ-13-018 intersected 4.53 metres averaging 1.06% nickel, 0.23% copper, 0.04% cobalt, 0.33 g/t platinum+palladium+gold at 51.8 metres down the hole.

Assay results were received in October 2013 from mineralization intersected in hole MQ-13-026 at Imiak Hill and averaged 3.25% nickel, 0.48% copper and 0.11% cobalt over a core length of 25.51 metres including 18.62 metres at 4.31% nickel, 0.62% copper and 0.14% cobalt. Assay results for holes MQ-13-024 and 019 which intersected mineralization above hole MQ-13-026 included 14.90 metres averaging 2.67% nickel, 0.39% copper and 0.09% cobalt and 8.68 metres averaging 1.53% nickel, 0.43% copper and 0.06% cobalt, respectively. Additional assays for high-grade intercepts were also announced for DDH MQ-13-029 and MQ-013-027 at Imiak Hill and included 4.65% nickel over a core length of 9.99 metres and 64.11 metres grading 0.45% nickel and 0.20% copper, respectively. DDH MQ-13-022 drilled at Spotty Hill returned 20.07 metres grading 0.68% nickel, 0.28% copper and 0.32g/t platinum+palladium+gold. Assay results from the deepest hole drilled on the Imiak Hill mineralization to date at 180 metres below surface, hole MQ-13-028, were announced in November 2013 and averaged 3.19% nickel, 1.14% copper and 0.11% cobalt over 24.75 metres core length. A new discovery at target P-13 was also announced in November 2013 and included an intercept of from hole MQ-13-032 averaging 0.44% nickel, 0.20% copper over 6.51 metres core length in DDH MQ-13-032.

The commencement of surface time-domain electromagnetic and gravity surveys was announced in April 2014 and subsequently Crone Geophysics completed gravity surveys at 655 stations and 67 km of surface Time Domain EM surveys at the IHC. Diamond drilling was commenced with one drill at the IHC and a second drill was used to test regional mineralized targets. In July 2014, new TDEM anomalies were identified at the IHC and Fossilik areas by the Crone surveys and gravity surveys were found to be potentially effective in outlining noritic intrusions in the subsurface. Structural geological mapping was initiated at the IHC and Fossilik in August 2014. An intercept of 11.03 metres averaging 3.07% nickel and 0.53% copper in hole MQ-14-037at Imiak hill was also announced.

In September, assay results were announced for mineralization intersected at the P-058 target in the Fossilik area as well as the P-149 (“Pingo”) regional target:

3.31% nickel, 0.61% copper and 0.27 g/t platinum+palladium+gold over 0.5 metres (Pingo)

Additional assay results were received in October for two holes completed as Spotty Hill which intersected disseminated and semi-massive sulphides. Hole MQ-14-062 intersected 8.55 metres averaging 2.98% nickel, 0.59% copper and 0.86 g/t platinum+palladium+gold. and hole MQ-14-065 intersected 10.6 metres averaging 1.69% nickel, 0.34% copper and 0.50 g/t platinum+palladium+gold.

Additional drilling and assay results at target P-13 were announced in November. Multiple nickel sulphide intersections at target P-013 included 5.85 metres averaging 2.07% nickel and 0.12% copper in hole MQ-14-066 and 3.40 metres averaging 2.07% nickel and 0.34% copper in hole MQ-14-068. More new nickel sulphide discoveries were announced in November 2014 including those from the southern portion of the Maniitsoq project and the IHC. Highlights from southern Maniitsoq included 20.10 metres averaging 0.63% nickel and 0.20% copper in hole MQ-14-070 at target P-030 and 0.24 metres of 0.85% nickel and 1.80% copper in hole MQ-14-071 at target P-053. At Imiak Hill, hole MQ-14-072 intersected 16.35 metres averaging 2.51% nickel and 0.77% copper and confirmed the continuity of mineralization between historical hole IM-9 and MQ-14-037. However, drilling in 2014 identified a mylonite zone at depth at Imiak Hill which appears to have truncated and/or displaced the mineralization. At Mikissoq (formerly Imiak North), hole MQ-14-073 intersected 61.35 metres averaging 0.63% nickel and 0.18% copper indicating a steep north easterly plunge for this mineralization.

On March 2, 2015, the Company announced potential high nickel recoveries utilizing SGS Canada Inc. QEMSCAN (Quantitative Evaluation of Minerals by Scanning Electron Microscopy) on its regional targets. Pentlandite was found to be the main nickel-bearing mineral in each sample with nickel contents ranging from 90.1 to 93.1%. Potential recoveries ranged from 96.1 to 97.2% based on liberation, association and exposed characteristics of crushed samples that were stage pulverized to 90% passing 150 µm.

In September, October and November, 2015 the Company announced several new nickel sulphide intersections including:

On March 30, 2016 the Company filed National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report on the Maniitsoq property.

On April 11, 2016, the Company reported the results of QEMSCAN mineralogical analyses from drill core indicating the potential for high nickel recoveries from Maniitsoq mineralization, similar to results from previous studies.

In June 2016 the Company initiated a large exploration program comprising diamond drilling, geophysical surveys, mapping, prospecting and sampling.

In September 2016 the Company completed a large exploration program comprising diamond drilling, geophysical surveys, mapping, prospecting and sampling. On September 20, 2016, the company announced the first assay results from the 2016 drilling program. Three drill holes from the P-053 target intersected nickel-copper sulphide mineralization which extended the area of known mineralization to the east and down plunge and also indicated the potential for a second mineralized zone. Highlights included:


MQ-16-104: MQ-16-106:		1.25 metres of 2.42% nickel, 0.09% copper and 0.12 g/t platinum+palladium+gold 20.05 metres of 0.65% nickel and 0.25% copper Including:
MQ-16-107:		o6.55 metres of 1.17% nickel, 0.33% copper and 0.12 g/t platinum+palladium+gold 3.45 metres of 1.10% nickel, 0.19% copper and 0.11 g/platinum+palladium+gold

On October 12, 2016, the Company announced the intersection high grade remobilized massive and breccia sulphide veins in two drill holes at the P-058 target in the Fossilik area which have extended the mineralized zone by 150 metres in a down-dip direction:

MQ-16-105: 10.20 metres of 3.41% nickel, 0.28% copper, 0.10% cobalt and 0.13 g/t

•

4.10 metres of 4.85% nickel, 0.29% copper, 0.14% cobalt and 0.13 g/t platinum+palladium+gold

MQ-16-111: 3.06 metres of 3.93% nickel, 0.25% copper, 0.10% cobalt and 0.09 g/t platinum+palladium+gold

On October 26, 2016, the Company announced the discovery of a new zone of nickel-copper sulphide mineralization at the P-013 SE target. Hole MQ-16-109 intersected high grade remobilized sulphides averaging 2.88% nickel, 0.80% copper, 0.06% cobalt and 0.46 g/t platinum+palladium+gold over 13.35 metres.

On October 31, 2016, the Company announced the discovery of a new zone of norite-hosted nickel and copper mineralization at Mikissoq. The mineralization is located approximately 130 metres below previously intersected shallow mineralization and was intersected over a dip extent of 105 metres in three holes completed on the same section:


MQ-16-113:		53.25 metres of 0.81% nickel and 0.36% copper including:
MQ-16-117:		5.15 metres of 2.56% nickel and 0.37% copper 74.05 metres of 1.08% nickel and 0.54% copper including:
MQ-16-118:		13.65 metres of 1.84% nickel and 0.64% copper 47.00 metres of 0.51% nickel and 0.25% copper including:
		15.00 metres of 1.03% nickel and 0.32% copper

On November 16, 2016, the Company announced drilling results from Spotty Hill at the IHC. Hole MQ-16-121 intersected stringer sulphide mineralization averaging 1.59% Ni, 0.30% Cu and 0.66 g/t Pt+Pd+Au over 4.75 metres. This intersection is located approximately 115 metres down plunge of existing mineralization and represents an expansion of the Spotty Hill mineralized system. Borehole electromagnetic (BHEM) surveys also identified new moderate to high conductance off-hole anomalies which remain to be tested. In addition, a gradient array Induced Polarization (IP) survey has defined a northwest striking trend of elevated chargeability values over a distance of 1.8 kilometres, extending from G-004 through Spotty Hill to Mikissoq. These results, coupled with the new discovery at Mikissoq, indicate the strong exploration potential for this trend of norite-pyroxenite stratigraphy within the IHC area.

The Company has signed an agreement for QEMSCAN Mineralogy on four samples from Maniitsoq.

Remaining assay results from the 2016 drilling program will continue to be received and reported at regular intervals during the final quarter of 2016. The success of the 2016 drilling program has expanded several key areas of nickel-copper sulphide mineralization including Mikissoq and Spotty Hill at the Imiak Hill Complex and P-058 in the Fossilik area. The Company plans to focus on further step-out drilling and expansion of these areas in 2017.

The Company is currently in the process of developing the following infrastructure.

Hydroelectric Power Development — North American Nickel’s application to the MLSA for the acquisition of a watershed adjacent to the Maniitsoq project was submitted to the Greenland government on September 16, 2016. The application requested approval for the Company to begin the collation of available hydrologic, cultural, social and environmental data to assist in the design of future data gathering on the ground. In the absence of an approval from the MLSA a second application was submitted October 25, 2016 requesting a temporary or limited approval that would permit data collection to commence. A response from MLSA is still pending.

Tailings Facility — Discussions were held with the MLSA and the Greenland Department of Nature, Environment and Energy in regards to the process for selecting and developing a tailings facility to support nickel mining and milling activities. This process is required to be undertaken as part of the submission of an exploitation licence for extraction of nickel ore. The location of the tailings facility and the process to assess a suitable site for tailings disposal/storage must be undertaken subsequent to the delineation of a mineable nickel deposit thereby avoiding long distance transport of tailings. The development of a tailings facility is considered as a component of an Environmental Impact Assessment. The process includes the determination of the scope of disposal (underground or surface), the selection of several potential tailings sites and the review of these sites for their suitability in terms of environmental impact. Review is done by external advisors to the Greenland government and may include environmental consultants or experts from Aarhuis University (Denmark). Subsequent to public consultation a white paper is produced which will identify any issues that need addressing by the Company. Following this is an abandonment plan to produce the best possible environmental solution.

The Company has completed presentations to the communities bordering the Maniitsoq project, including Nuuk, Attamik, Napasoq, Maniitsoq and Sisimiut. Regional associations (Arctic Business Councils, Fishers and Hunters association and the Greenland Employers Association) and community meetings have been updated with regards to the Company’s exploration progress and upcoming plans.

A compilation of expenditures and suppliers of goods and services made by the Company in Greenland since 2012 is in preparation for presentation to members of the Town Council of Maniitsoq and Sisimiut. These councils requested the database and a summary of the Company’s hiring practices of Greenlanders since 2011. The hiring records have been compiled and forwarded to the town councils. The expenditures compilation for the goods and services sector will demonstrate the details of the Company’s expenditures in the goods and services sector and underscore the fact that 60% of all funds raised for the project are spent on Greenlandic companies.

On December 23, 2009, the Company executed a letter of intent whereby the Company has an option to acquire the mineral claim known as the Post Creek Property located within the Sudbury Mining District of Ontario. The Company paid a non-refundable deposit of $7,500. On April 5, 2010 the Company entered into an option agreement to acquire rights to Post Creek Property. On March 12, 2013 the Post Creek Property Option Agreement was amended, in order to acquire 100% working interests in the property, subject to certain net smelter return royalties (“NSR”) and advance royalty payments the Company agreed to the following amended consideration, which has been met, cash payments totalling $137,500 and the issuance of 1,000,000 common shares. The Company has exercised its option on Post Creek and as of August 1, 2015 the Company is obligated to pay advances on the NSR of $10,000 per annum, which will be deducted from any payments to be made under the NSR.

The property is located 35 km east of Sudbury in Norman, Parkin, Aylmer and Rathburn townships and consists of 39 unpatented mining claims covering an area of 912 hectares. It is strategically located adjacent to the past-producing Podolsky copper-nickel-platinum group metal deposit of KGHM, hosted by the Whistle Offset Dyke. The property lies along an interpreted extension of the Whistle Offset Dyke trend and hosts occurrences of Quartz Diorite Dykes and Sudbury Breccia which are known to be associated with nickel-copper-PGM mineralization elsewhere in the Sudbury area.

Work completed by the Company in the past identified new occurrences of quartz diorite dyke, the “CJ Quartz Diorite”. In addition, ground traverses and prospecting carried out in April and May of 2016 have identified a number of new locations of Sudbury Breccia and led to small trenching program in the area of historic IP anomalies. These findings support the potential for the Post Creek property to host both Footwall and Offset Dyke type deposits and will help focus future exploration efforts.

Work completed on the property during the nine month period ending September 30, 2016 consisted of geological traverses, prospecting, sampling and trenching carried out in May and June. Selected assay, whole rock and thin section samples were collected for analysis and study. Results have been received and are being compiled.

A final report on an NSERC project completed on the Post Creek Property was received in March and confirmed the identification of Quartz Diorite (“Post Creek Quartz Diorite” or “CJ Quartz Diorite”) in surface trenches. The authors were unable to verify if the exposed Quartz Diorite represented an extension of the Whistle Offset Dyke or a separate new Offset Dyke, but favored the latter. Regardless, the confirmation of Quartz Diorite has significant implications for the exploration potential of the property.

Mapping of the 2016 trenches and GPSing of selected qualifying claims to obtain work credits is planned for late 2016. The Company is also planning to review and synthesize all newly obtained data in order to formulate a work plan aimed at defining the overall extents footwall breccia zones and quartz diorite dykes and identifying geological and/or geophysical drill targets.

On April 5, 2010, the Company entered into an option agreement to acquire rights to Halcyon Property. On March 12, 2013, the Halcyon Property Option Agreement was amended. In order to acquire up to a 100% working interest in the property, subject to certain net smelter return royalties (“NSR”) and advance royalty payments the Company agreed to the following amended consideration, which has been met, cash payments totalling $120,000 and the issuance of 700,000 common shares. Further, commencing on the amended date of August 1, 2015, if the Company exercises its option, the Company will be obligated to pay advances on the NSR of $8,000 per annum, which will be deducted from any payments to be made under the NSR.

The property is located 35 Km northeast of Sudbury in the Parkin and Aylmer townships, and consists of 53 unpatented mining claims for a total of 864 hectares. It is readily accessible by paved and all-weather gravel road. Halcyon is adjacent to the Post Creek property and is approximately 2 km north of the producing Podolsky Mine of FNX Mining. Previous operators on the property defined numerous conductive zones based on induced polarization (I.P.) surveys with coincident anomalous Mobile Metal Ions soil geochemistry. Base and precious metal mineralization have been found in multiple locations on the property but follow-up work was never done. The former producing Jon Smith Mine (nickel-copper-cobalt-platinum) is situated 1 Km North of the property.

On December 14, 2011, prospecting and a small amount of outcrop stripping were completed in preparation for a drill program. A single hole was drilled on the southeast corner of the property with the purpose of providing geological information and to provide a platform for bore hole pulse EM (“BHPEM”). No anomalies were detected although quartz diorite breccia and partial melt material with 2-3% disseminated pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite was intersected over short core lengths.

Work completed on the property during the nine month period ending September 30, 2016 consisted of geological traverses, prospecting and sampling and was carried out on the southern portion of the Halcyon Property. This program was carried out concurrently with similar work on the Post Creek Property. Selected assay, whole rock and thin section samples were collected for analysis and study. Results have been received and are being compiled.

GPSing of selected qualifying claims to obtain work credits is planned for late 2016. Further work of the Halcyon Property will be rationalized with work programs on the adjacent Post Creek Property.

Section 35 Property –
On January 4, 2016, the Company made and entered into a 10 year Metallic Minerals Lease with the Michigan Department of Natural Resources for an area covering approximately 320 acres. Under the terms of the lease, an annual rental fee will be required at a rate of US $3.00 per acre per lease for years 1-5 and US $6.00 per acre per lease year for the years 6-10. A minimum royalty of US $10 per acre is due for the eleventh year of the lease and increases by $US 5 per acre through to the twentieth year. For the twentieth year of the lease and thereafter for the life of the lease, the minimum royalty is US $55 per acre per year.

The Company paid the first year rental fee and the required bond of US $10,000. The Department of Natural Resources shall annually review the level of the performance bond and shall require the amount of the bond to be increased or decreased to reflect changes in the cost of future reclamation of the leased premises.

A surface time-domain Electromagnetic survey planned for the fall of 2016 has been deferred until 2017 and will be contingent on the submission and approval of work permits.

The Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and practices. Currency amounts are in Canadian dollars, except where stated otherwise. The following selected financial information is taken from the Condensed Financial Statements and should be read in conjunction with those statements.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016 compared with Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company incurred a net loss of $2,246,959 compared to a net loss of $1,849,482 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The increase of $397,477 in net loss is a result of an increase of $21,896 in consulting fees due to taking on an advisor, management fees increased by $90,705 as a result of reclassifying the presidents fees which are higher due to a fulltime position and having a change in the number of directors resulting in a change in stipends paid out, salaries and benefits increased by $63,793 as a result of taking of fulltime vs part time employee, general and administrative costs are up by $13,674 as a result of changing IT providers, filing fees increase by $34,265 due to filing a 43-101 and the financings. The investor relations costs increased by $27,978 as a result of the Wood Mackenzie agreement. All these increases are offset by a decrease of $90,823 in Professional fees being down, and property investigation costs are down $116,394 along with less costs on travel of $8,656 and a small share-based payment amount of $80,798. Other items that increased was the fee generated on the advance of the loan of $95,238, the interest expense generated on the loan of $297,740, interest income decreased by $11,327 and the foreign exchange loss increased by $30,725.

The general operating costs increased by $99,737 which is mainly the result of the changes made to management and staff in 2015 and the costs associated with the financings. This resulted in an increase of $90,705 in management fees and an increase of $63,793 in salaries offset by fewer costs on property investigation and port development. The advance of the loan generated a fee of $95,238.

The Company shared office space with VMS Ventures Inc. upto April 2016 with the rent split at 40% for the Company and some general and administrative costs split at 50%. During the year 2015, the Company started consolidating its own business functionality and as a result a couple employees status went to full-time positions. The Company maintains its exploration staff as full-time employees with most of the cost being directly related to a project expense and the balance as a general and administrative cost. For the current nine months ending September 30, 2016 general and administrative costs increased by $13,674 as a result of switching IT providers. Some of the administrative costs are starting to show a decrease as a result of restructuring the office status.

As at September 30, 2016, total assets increased since December 31, 2015 due to $7,384,925 spent on capital expenditures of the exploration program and the financings generating a higher cash position. As at September 30, 2016 share capital increased as a result of the financings raising $12,000,000 and issuing 160,000,000 units with share issue costs of $458,092 and issuing 952,380 units as a fee on the loan with a fair value of $95,238. As at December 31, 2015, share capital increased since December 31, 2014 due to the Company closing a private placement of 29,054,079 units for net proceeds of $6,157,591, having 1,149,000 stock options exercised for net proceeds of $172,350 and having 7,461,748 warrants exercised for net proceeds of $1,566,967. As at December 31, 2015, total assets increased by $5,679,139 since December 31, 2014 as a result of capital expenditure purchases of $137,662 mainly computer software and spending $9,086,094 on the exploration properties and raising funds through a private placement.

As at September 30, 2016, the Company had accumulated losses totaling $23,350,086. The Company had working capital of $5,280,705 at September 30, 2016. The continuation of the Company is dependent upon the continued financial support of shareholders, its ability to raise capital through the issuance of its securities, as well as obtaining long-term financing when the company concludes an appropriate merger or acquisition agreement.

On April 22, 2016 the entered into a term loan with Sentient Executive GP IV Limited and received an advance of $4,500,000. The loan is due on April 30, 2017 and has been made on an interest free basis. Sentient is to be paid 952,380 common shares, which is equivalent value of 2.2% of the principal amount of the loan, as a fee for advancing the loan. The fee was booked at a fair value of $95,238. The loan is subject to early pre-payment in the event that, during the term of the loan, the Company completes a private placement of gross proceeds of $2,000,000 or more. On July 21, 2016, the Company closed its market offering of units of the Company for total gross proceeds of $6,950,168 and on September 12, 2016, the Company closed a non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of $5,049,831.98 which being the maximum offering amount raised, Sentient was repaid the full loan of $4.5 million.

The Company discounted the loan with the interest not being charged by Sentient using an interest rate of 15% per annum and an amount of $297,740 to a Capital Contribution Reserve. This amount was amortized over 161 days since the Company raised $6,950,168 in an offering and closed a non-brokered private placement for $5,049,831. The amount of $297,740 in interest expense was recorded on the profit and loss statement for the period.

The Company has financed its operations to date primarily through the issuance of common shares and exercise of stock options and warrants. The Company continues to seek capital through various means including the issuance of equity and/or debt and the securing of joint venture partners where appropriate.

The properties in which the Company currently has an interest are in the exploration stage. As such, the Company is dependent on external financing to fund its activities. In order to carry out the planned exploration and pay for administrative costs, the Company will spend its existing working capital and raise additional amounts as needed. The Company will continue to assess new properties and seek to acquire an interest in additional properties if it feels there is sufficient geologic or economic potential and if it has adequate financial resources to do so.

Management considers its approach to capital management to be appropriate given the relative size of the Company. There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the year.

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and trade payables and accrued liabilities. Cash and cash equivalents are designated as held for trading and therefore carried at fair value, with the unrealized gain or loss recorded in income. Receivables are designated as loan receivables and trade payables, are designated as other financial liabilities and recorded at amortized cost. Marketable securities are available for sale with the unrealized gain or loss recorded in other comprehensive income.

The fair value hierarchy establishes three levels to classify inputs to the valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted market prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

Cash and cash equivalents are stated at fair value and are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of accounts receivables and trade payables approximate carrying value because of the short term nature of these instruments.

The fair value of available for sale investments are determined based on a market approach reflecting the closing price of each particular security at the closing balance sheet date. The closing price is a quoted market price obtained from the exchange that is the principal active market for the particular security, and therefore available for sale securities are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Risk management is carried out by the Company’s management team with guidance from the Board of Directors. The Company’s risk exposures and their impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below:

Credit Risk
The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to cash, short-term investments and amounts receivable. Cash and cash equivalents, and short-term investments are held with one reputable Canadian chartered bank which is closely monitored by management. Financial instruments included in amounts receivable consist primarily of HST/GST recoverable from the Canadian government. Management believes that the credit risk concentration with respect to financial instruments included in cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and amounts receivable is minimal.

Liquidity Risk
The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. As at September 30, 2016, the Company held cash and a short-term investment totaling $5,642,443 (December 31, 2015 — $2,824,923) and had current liabilities of $625,063 (December 31, 2015 — $249,604). All of the Company’s liabilities have contractual maturities of less than 30 days and are subject to normal trade terms.

The Company had cash balances and no interest bearing debt. The Company’s current policy is to invest excess cash in investment-grade short-term deposit certificates issued by its banking institutions. The Company periodically monitors the investments it makes and is satisfied with the creditworthiness of its banks. As of September 30, 2016, the Company had non-interest bearing accounts with one Canadian chartered bank.

The Company is exposed to the financial risk related to fluctuations of foreign exchange rates. The Company operates in Canada and Greenland and a portion of exploration and evaluation assets are incurred in US dollars, Euros and Danish Krones (“DKK”). Foreign currency risk is considered low as the majority of transactions are settled and reported in Canadian dollars.

The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to commodity prices. Commodity price risk is defined as the potential adverse impact on earnings and economic value due to commodity price movements and volatilities. To mitigate price risk, the Company closely monitors commodity prices of precious metals and the stock market to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.

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 Company’s financial statements.

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.
