DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Generic Gold was incorporated by articles of incorporation dated May 30, 2017 under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). Generic Gold's principal business activity is the acquisition and exploration of potentially high-grade gold properties in Canada. The registered head office of the Company is located at 217 Queen Street West, Suite 401, Toronto, Ontario, M5V 0R2.

The Company acquired the rights to explore eight gold properties in the Yukon Territory of Canada.

On July 7, 2020, Generic Gold acquired three blocks of claims (the "Belvais Project") in the Abitibi

region of northwestern Quebec, proximal and to the east of the town of Normétal. The Project is comprised of 169 mineral claims covering approximately 8,148 hectares of prospective Archean stratigraphy of felsic through to mafic volcanic rocks, sediments, and numerous intrusions of varying age and compositions. On November 25, 2020, the Company acquired an additional 4,415 hectares (the "De Meloizes Property"), which increased the land position of the overall Belvais project to 12,563 hectares (125.65 km2).

OVERALL PERFORMANCE

As at December 31, 2021, the Company had total consolidated assets of $3,878,687 (the Company expenses all of its exploration and acquisition costs), and total shareholders' equity of $3,359,301 compared to total consolidated assets of $5,657,327 and total shareholders' equity of $4,816,718 as at December 31, 2020. The Company had current liabilities of $484,634 as at December 31, 2021 compared to $749,882 as at December 31, 2020, resulting in working capital of $3,307,311 as at December 31, 2021 compared to working capital of $4,765,917 as at December 31, 2020.

EXPLORATION ACTIVITIES

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company continued its exploration activities on its Belvais property in the Abitibi, Québec. Phase 1 of the announced 7,500m diamond drill program was completed. It total, 13 drill holes were completed for 4,303m of drilling. Phase 1 principally targeted EM plates that had been identified and modelled from the VTEM survey that was previously conducted. On October 28, 2021, the Company announced the results from Phase 1 of drilling and outlined targets for Phase 2. On December 2, 2021, the Company announced the beginning on Phase 2 drilling. New targets for this phase include systematic drilling along the Normétal Mine Horizon, where neighbouring companies Starr Peak Mining and Amex Exploration have both recently made VMS discoveries. A splay fault disrupting the main Normétal fault has also been identified as a target. Other targets include IP anomalies identified from a 2019 survey and off-hole BHEM (borehole electromagnetics) anomalies identified during Phase 1 operations. Drilling operations continued into 2022, with the drill rig leaving the property in mid March. In total, a further 4,496m was drilled during Phase 2 bringing the combined total conducted on Belvais to 8,799m. All drill core samples are now with AGAT Laboratories in Val d'Or, Quebec and results are pending.

An airborne geophysical VTEMTM (time versatile electromagnetic) survey that had commenced in November, 2020 was completed in late January, 2021. Initial results were received at the end of February with final data sets obtained at the end of March, 2021. The entirety of the Belvais property was flown as part of a larger project in conjunction with neighbouring companies. Many EM (electromagnetical) anomalies were identified across the property, with some large EM plates modelled surrounding and along strike to the historic Normétal copper/zinc mine. This information has been instrumental in drill hole planning, with important identified anomalies not having seen any previous drilling. An external geophysicist was engaged to complete a full structural analysis of the Belvais project with magnetic and VTEM data and to suggest drill hole targets. A 3D compilation of all historic geological data was completed by consultants Laurentia Exploration and combined together with current results, which has provided a clear geological picture of the Belvais area.

The Company also continues to review its Yukon property portfolio. Of particular interest is the Goodman & Seattle property package, located near the town of Mayo, Yukon. The neighbouring property to Goodman, owned by Victoria Gold Corp., has been actively mining its Eagle Gold Mine in the commercial production phase. Victoria Gold Corp. is also actively drilling the past-producing Rex-Peso high-grade silver target 4km west of the Eagle Gold Mine. Generic Gold has 4 claims directly west of this activity and will continue to monitor results closely. The Company continues to review and compare the Goodman & Seattle project in contrast to the Eagle Gold Mine to identifynew exploration targets. Also of continuing interest to the Company is its VIP project, located directly west of Newmont Corporation's Coffee Project.

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL POSITION

To date, the Company has not generated significant revenues from its operations and is considered to be in the exploration stage. The Company's long-term financial success is dependent on discovering properties that contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable. All of the

Company's resource property agreements are option agreements and the exercise thereof are at the discretion of the Company. To earn its interest in the properties, the Company must incur certain expenditures in accordance with the agreements. At present, the Company is dependent on equity or debt financing for additional funding if required. Should one of the Company's projects proceed to the mine development stage, it is expected that a combination of debt and equity financing would be available

As at December 31, 2021, the Company had cash of $3,577,976 (2020 - $5,356,826) and amounts receivable and other assets of $213,969 (2020 - $158,973).

As at December 31, 2021, the Company had current assets of $3,791,945 (December 31, 2020 - $5,515,799) and current liabilities of $484,634 (December 31, 2020 - $749,882) resulting in working capital of $3,307,311 compared to working capital of $4,765,917 at December 31, 2020.

On August 11, 2020, the Company completed a brokered private placement financing through the issuance of an aggregate of 16,858,298 units (the "Units") of the Company at a price of $0.35 per Unit and an aggregate of 2,857,500 flow-through units (the "FT Units") of the Company at a price of $0.40 per FT Unit for gross proceeds of $7,043,404.

Each Unit is comprised of one common share (each, a "Common Share") in the capital of the Company and one Common Share purchase warrant (each, a "Unit Warrant"). Each Unit Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at a price of $0.50 until August 10, 2022.
