RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.<br><br><br>NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM<br><br><br>CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS<br><br><br>(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)<br><br><br>(Unaudited)

**1.**NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

Red Metal Resources Ltd. (the “Company”) is involved in acquiring and exploring mineral properties in Chile through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Minera Polymet SpA (“Polymet”) organized under the laws of the Republic of Chile. The Company has not determined whether its properties contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable.

The Company’s head office is located at 1130 West Pender Street, Suite 820, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 4A4. Its registered office address is 700 – 595 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V7X 1S8. The Company's mailing address is 278 Bay Street, Suite 102, Thunder Bay, Ontario, P7B 1R8. Polymet's head office is located in Vallenar, III Region of Atacama, Chile.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern, meaning it will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the ordinary course of operations. As at April 30, 2022, the Company has not advanced its mineral properties to commercial production and is not able to finance day to day activities through operations. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon the successful results from its mineral property exploration activities and its ability to attain profitable operations and generate funds there from and/or raise equity capital or borrowings sufficient to meet current and future obligations. As at April 30, 2022, the Company had $166,451 cash and working capital deficit of $2,225,344. The Company raises financing for its exploration and development activities in discrete tranches to finance its activities for limited periods only. The Company has identified that further funding may be required for working capital purposes, and to finance the Company’s  exploration program and development of mineral assets. These conditions may cast substantial doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not give effect to any adjustment which would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and, therefore, be required to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in the consolidated financial statements and such adjustments may be material. Uncertainty Associated with Global Outbreak of COVID-19 In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared an outbreak of COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak, which continues to spread, and any related adverse public health developments, have adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, potentially leading to an economic downturn. It is not possible for the Company to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on the Company’s business or ability to raise funds.

**2.**BASIS OF PREPARATION

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue on June 27, 2022, by the directors of the Company.

a) Statement of Compliance and Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations  Committee which the Canadian Accounting Standards Board has approved for incorporation into Part 1 of the CPA Canada Handbook - Accounting including IAS 34 Interim financial reporting. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2022.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments which have been measured at fair value.

RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.<br><br><br>NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM<br><br><br>CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS<br><br><br>(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)<br><br><br>(Unaudited)

During the year ended January 31, 2022, the Company changed its presentation currency from the United States dollar to the Canadian dollar. The Company believes that the change in presentation currency will provide shareholders with a better reflection of the Company’s business activities and enhance the comparability of the Company’s financial information to its peers. For more details, see Note 4 of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements. Reference herein to $ or CAD is to Canadian dollars, USD$ is to the US dollars.

Balance sheet items are classified as current if receipt or payment is due within twelve months. Otherwise, they are presented as non-current.

b) Significant accounting policies

The accounting policies applied in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2022.

c) Accounting standards issued but not yet effective

Accounting standards, amendments to standards, or interpretations 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 condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

**3.**CHANGE IN PRESENTATION AND FUNCTIONAL CURRENCY

Effective February 1, 2021, the Company changed its presentation currency to Canadian dollars from US dollars. The Company believes that the change in presentation currency will provide shareholders with a better reflection of the Company’s business activities and enhance the comparability of the Company’s financial information to its industry peers. The change in presentation currency represents a voluntary change in accounting policy, which is accounted for retrospectively.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three-month period ended April 30, 2021, have been translated into the new presentation currency in accordance with IAS 21 – The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, using the procedures outlined below:

·assets and liabilities were translated to CAD using exchange rates at April 30, 2021;

·income and expenses were translated using average exchange rates during the three-month period ended April 30, 2021;

·share capital and deficit were translated at the historical rates prevailing at the dates of transactions; and

·differences arising from the translation of the results for the reporting period have been taken to the accumulated other comprehensive loss.

The change in presentation currency resulted in the following impact on the April 30, 2021, condensed interim consolidated statement of financial position:

The functional currency of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entities operate. The Company reconsiders the functional currency of its entities if there is a change in events and conditions which determined the primary economic environment. The continuation of Red Metal from Nevada to British Columbia, listing of its common shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange, as well as Canadian dollar denominated private placements, have significantly increased the Parent Company’s exposure to the Canadian dollar. Therefore, as of February 1, 2022, the Company adopted Canadian dollar as corporate entity’s functional currency on a prospective basis. Minera Polymet continues to use Chilean peso as its functional currency.

**4.**SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

The preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make assumptions and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements include estimates which, by their nature, are uncertain. These assumptions and associated estimates are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. The current market conditions introduce additional uncertainties, risks and complexities in management’s determination of the estimates and assumptions used to prepare the Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements. As the COVID-19 pandemic and volatility in financial markets is an evolving situation, management cannot reasonably estimate the length or severity of the impact on the Company. As such, actual results may differ from estimates and the effect of such differences may be material. The impacts of such estimates are pervasive throughout the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and the revision affects both current and future periods.

The following are critical judgments that management has made in the process of applying accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements:

•classification/allocation of expenses as exploration and evaluation expenditures;

•classification and measurement of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities;

•determination that the Company is able to continue as a going concern; and

•determination whether there have been any events or changes in circumstances that indicate the impairment of the Company’s exploration and evaluations assets.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty include the following:

•the carrying value and recoverability of exploration and evaluation assets;

•recoverability and measurement of deferred tax assets;

•provisions for restoration and environmental obligations and contingent liabilities; and

•measurement of share-based transactions.

**5.**FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISKS

Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels at the fair value hierarchy are:

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 - observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 3 - unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data available, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The Company has classified its cash as measured at fair value in the statement of financial position, using level 1 inputs.

$        166,451 $          - $          - $        166,451

Accounts payable, accrued liabilities, due to related parties, and notes payable approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Risk management

The Company has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments: credit risk, market risk and liquidity risk. Management, the Board of Directors, and the Audit Committee monitor risk management activities and

review the adequacy of such activities.

Credit risk:

Credit risk is the risk of potential loss to the Company if a customer or counter party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s credit risk is limited to the carrying amount on the statement of financial position and arises from the Company’s cash, which is held with a high-credit quality financial institutions in Canada and in Chile. As such, the Company’s credit risk exposure is minimal.

Market risk:

Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and equity prices.

*i.*Interest rate risk:

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company has minimal interest rate risk as it has no interest accumulating financial assets that may become susceptible to interest rate fluctuations.

*ii.*Currency risk:

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because they are denominated in currencies that differ from the respective functional currency. The Company has offices in Canada and Chile, and holds cash in Canadian, United States, and Chilean Peso currencies. A significant change in the currency exchange rates between the Canadian dollar relative to US dollar and Chilean Peso could have an effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, and/or cash flows. At April 30, 2022, the Company had no hedging agreements in place with respect to foreign exchange rates. As the majority of the transactions of the Company are denominated in CAD and Chilean Peso currencies, movements in the foreign exchange rates are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.<br><br><br>NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM<br><br><br>CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS<br><br><br>(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)<br><br><br>(Unaudited)

*iii.*Equity price risk:

Equity price risk is the risk that the fair value of equity/securities decreases as a result of changes in the levels of equity indices and the value of individual stocks. The Company is not exposed to equity price risk as it does not have any investments in marketable securities.

Liquidity risk: Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company has a planning and budgeting process in place to help determine the funds required to support the Company’s normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis. Historically, the Company's sources of funding have been through equity financings and loans from the Company’s management and its major shareholder; however, the Company cannot be certain that it will be able to raise sufficient funds to meet its short-term business requirements. The following table details the remaining contractual maturities of the Company’s financial liabilities as of April 30, 2022:

Within 1 year 1-5 years 5+ years
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities $ 178,542 $ - $ -

**6.**EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS

As of April 30, 2022, and January 31, 2022, the Company’s interest in exploration and evaluation assets consisted of three active copper-gold projects on two properties, namely the Farellón and Perth Projects both located on the Carrizal Property, and the Mateo Project located on the Mateo Property. The Company capitalizes acquisition costs incurred on the Company’s exploration and evaluation properties; the costs associated with exploration and drilling programs as well as property tax payments are expensed as period costs in the period they are incurred. Following tables present, as of April 30, 2022 and January 31, 2022  acquisition costs associated with each property:

Options

On July 13, 2021, the Company adopted an incentive stock option plan (the “Option Plan”) which provides that the Board of Directors of the Company may, from time to time, at their discretion and in accordance with the CSE requirements, grant stock options to directors, officers and technical consultants for up to 10% of the issued and outstanding common Shares of the Company.  Such options are exercisable for a period of up to ten years from the date of grant.  Exercise price and vesting terms are determined at the time of grant by the Board of Directors.

On November 24, 2021, the Company’s board of directors granted 1,750,000 incentive stock options to its directors, officers, and consultants.  The stock options are exercisable at a price of $0.25 per Share for a period of five years expiring on November 24, 2026.  The options to acquire up to 1,700,000 Shares vested immediately upon grant, therefore the Company recognized $330,425 as share-based compensation for the period ended January 31, 2022. The fair value of these stock options was estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing model using the following assumptions:

The NSR will be paid quarterly once commercial exploitation begins and will be paid on gold, silver, copper and cobalt sales. If, within two years, the Company does not commence commercial exploitation of the mineral properties, an annual payment of USD$10,000 per purchaser will be paid.

Pursuant to Chilean law, the NSR agreements will come in force only when registered against the land title in Chile. Due to temporary safety restrictions associated with COVID-19 pandemic, the registration of the NSR Agreements has been deferred, therefore the payments made by the CEO, CFO, and the major shareholder have been recorded as advances on the books of the Company and will be applied towards the NSR Agreements, once they are fully legalized.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS FOR

THE THREE MONTHS ENDED

APRIL 30, 2022 & 2021


RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.<br><br><br>Management's Discussion and Analysis<br><br><br>As of April 30, 2022

INTRODUCTION

The following Management Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) of Red Metal Resources Ltd. (the “Company” or “Red Metal”), has been prepared by management, in accordance with the requirements of National Instrument 51-102 as of June 27, 2022, and should be read in conjunction with condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three-month periods ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, and the related notes contained therein which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations  Committee which the Canadian Accounting Standards Board has approved for incorporation into Part 1 of the CPA Canada Handbook - Accounting including IAS 34 Interim financial reporting.  The information contained herein is not a substitute for detailed investigation or analysis on any particular issue. The information provided in this document is not intended to be a comprehensive review of all matters and developments concerning the Company. The Company is presently a “Venture Issuer” as defined in National Instrument 51-102.  Additional information relevant to the Company’s activities can be found on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and the Company’s website at http://www.redmetalresources.com.

References to “Red Metal”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our” or similar terms refer to Red Metal Resources Ltd. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Minera Polymet SpA, which owns a 100% interest in  three active copper-gold projects on two properties, namely the Farellón and Perth Projects both located on the Carrizal Property, and the Mateo Project located on the Mateo Property. All of the Company’s mineral properties are located in the Candelaria iron oxide copper-gold (IOCG) belt of the coastal cordillera, in the Carrizal Alto Mining District, Atacama Region, Chile.

All financial information in this MD&A has been prepared in accordance with IFRS and all dollar amounts are quoted in Canadian dollars, the reporting and functional currency of the parent Company, unless specifically noted. The functional currency for the Company’s Chilean subsidiary is the Chilean peso.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Except for statements of historical fact relating to the Company, certain statements in this MD&A may constitute forward-looking information, future oriented financial information, or financial outlooks (collectively, “forward-looking information”) within the meaning of Canadian securities laws. Forward-looking information may relate to this MD&A, the Company's future outlook and anticipated events or results and, in some cases, can be identified by terminology such as “may”, “could”, “should”, “expect”, “plan”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “intend”, “estimate”, “projects”, “predict”, “potential”, “targeted”, “possible”, “continue” or other similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts and include, but are not limited in any manner to, those with respect to commodity prices, mineral resources, mineral reserves, realization of mineral reserves, existence or realization of mineral resource estimates, the timing and amount of future production, the timing of construction of any proposed mine and process facilities, capital and operating expenditures, the timing of receipt of permits, rights and authorizations, and any and all other timing, development, operational, financial, economic, legal, regulatory and political factors that may influence future events or conditions, as such matters may be applicable.

In particular, this MD&A contains forward-looking statements pertaining to the following:

•expectations regarding revenue, expenses and operations;

•the Company having sufficient working capital and being able to secure additional funding necessary for the continued exploration of the Company’s mineral interests;

•expectations regarding the potential mineralization, geological merit and economic feasibility of the Company’s projects;

•expectations regarding drill programs and potential impacts thereof;

•expectations regarding any environmental issues that may affect planned or future exploration programs and the potential impact of complying with existing and proposed environmental laws and regulations;

•treatment under applicable governmental regimes for permitting and approvals; and

•key personnel continuing their employment with the Company. See “Risk Factors”.


1 | Page


RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.<br><br><br>Management's Discussion and Analysis<br><br><br>As of April 30, 2022

Such forward-looking statements are based on a number of material factors and assumptions, and include the ultimate determination of mineral reserves, if any, the availability and final receipt of required approvals, licenses and permits, sufficient working capital to develop and operate any proposed mine, access to adequate services and supplies, economic conditions, commodity prices, foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, access to capital and debt markets and associated costs of funds, availability of a qualified work force, and the ultimate ability to mine, process and sell mineral products on economically favourable terms.

While the Company considers these assumptions to be reasonable based on information currently available to it, they may prove to be incorrect. Actual results may vary from such forward-looking information for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to risks and uncertainties disclosed in this MD&A. Forward-looking statements are based upon management's beliefs, estimates and opinions on the date the statements are made and, other than as required by law, the Company does not intend, and undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking information to reflect, among other things, new information or future events.

Investors are cautioned against placing undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Uncertainty Associated with Global Outbreak of COVID-19

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared an outbreak of COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak, which continues to spread, and any related adverse public health developments, have adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, potentially leading to an economic downturn. It is not possible for the Company to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on the Company’s business or ability to raise funds.

Change in Functional and Presentation Currency

Effective February 1, 2021, the Company changed its presentation currency from US dollars to Canadian dollars. The Company believes that the change in presentation currency will provide shareholders with a better reflection of the Company’s business activities and enhance the comparability of the Company’s financial information to its industry peers. The change in presentation currency represents a voluntary change in accounting policy, which is accounted for retrospectively.

In order to satisfy the requirements of IAS 21 - The effects of changes in foreign exchange rates, with respect to the change in presentation currency, the condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three-month period ended April 30, 2021, have been restated from USD to CAD as follows: (i) the consolidated income statement and consolidated statement of comprehensive income have been translated into the presentation currency using the average exchange rate prevailing during the reporting period, (ii) all assets and liabilities have been translated using the period-end exchange rate, (iii) all resulting exchange differences have been recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss, and (iv) shareholders’ deficit balances have been translated using historical rates based on rates in effect on the date of material transactions.

The functional currency of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The Company reconsiders the functional currency of its entities if there is a change in events and conditions which determined the primary economic environment. The continuation of Red Metal from Nevada to British Columbia, listing of its common shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange, as well as closing latest private placements in Canadian dollars, have significantly increased the Company’s exposure to the Canadian dollar. Therefore, as of February 1, 2022, the Company adopted Canadian dollar as corporate entity’s functional currency on a prospective basis. Minera Polymet continues to use Chilean peso as its functional currency.

RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.<br><br><br>Management's Discussion and Analysis<br><br><br>As of April 30, 2022

COMPANY OVERVIEW

Background

Red Metal Resources Ltd. was incorporated under the Nevada Business Corporations Act on January 10, 2005, as Red Lake Exploration, Inc. On August 27, 2008, the name of the Company was changed to Red Metal Resources Ltd. On February 10, 2021, the Company changed its corporate jurisdiction from the State of Nevada to the Province of British Columbia by means of a process called a “conversion” under the Nevada Revised Statutes and a “continuation” under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). Upon the Company’s continuation to British Columbia, the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company, under the Nevada Revised Statutes, were replaced with the Articles of the Company, under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The authorized capital of the Company was amended to an unlimited number of common shares without par value. On November 18, 2021, the Company filed a final non-offering prospectus ( the “Prospectus”) with the B.C. Securities Commission and became a reporting issuer in the province of British Columbia. The common shares of the Company were approved for listing on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) and began trading under the symbol “RMES” as of market open on November 25, 2021, and the Company automatically became a reporting issuer in the province of Ontario. The Company’s common shares continue to trade on the OTC Link alternative trading system on the OTC PINK marketplace under the symbol “RMESF”. The Company’s head office is located at 1130 West Pender Street, Suite 820, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 4A4. Its registered office address is 595 Burrard Street, Suite 700, Vancouver, British Columbia, V7X 1S8. The Company's mailing address is 278 Bay Street, Suite 102, Thunder Bay, Ontario, P7B 1R8.

On August 21, 2007, the Company formed Minera Polymet Limitada (“Polymet”) as a limited liability company, under the laws of the Republic of Chile. On September 28, 2015, the Company changed Polymet’s incorporation from Limited Liability Company to a Closed Stock Corporation (“SpA”). As of the date of this MD&A the Company owns 100% of Polymet, which holds its Chilean mineral property interests. The Company is engaged in the business of mineral exploration in Chile with the objective to explore and, if warranted, develop mineral properties.All of the Company’s mineral concessions are located in the Candelaria iron oxide copper-gold (IOCG) belt of the coastal cordillera, in the Carrizal Alto Mining District, Atacama Region, Chile.The Company has three active copper-gold projects on two properties, namely the Farellón and Perth Projects both located on the Carrizal Property, and the Mateo Project located on the Mateo Property. In addition to holding these active properties, as an exploration company, the Company periodically stakes, purchases or options claims to allow time and access to fully consider the geological potential of claims. The Company’s flagship project, the Farellón Project, is an early-stage exploration property consisting of eight mining concessions totaling 1,234 hectares.

Consistent with the Company’ historical practices, the Company’s management continues to monitor its costs in Chile by reviewing the Company’s mineral claims to determine whether they possess the geological indicators to economically justify the capital to maintain or explore them. As at the time of this MD&A, Polymet has six employees and engages independent consultants on as needed basis. Most of the Company’s support - such as vehicles, office, and equipment - is supplied under short-term contracts. The only long-term commitments that the Company has are for royalty payments on four of its mineral concessions - Farellón Alto 1 - 8, Quina 1 - 56, Exeter 1 - 54, and Che. These royalties are payable once exploitation begins. The Company is also required to pay property taxes that are due annually on all the concessions that are included in its properties.

The cost and timing of all planned exploration programs are subject to the availability of qualified mining personnel, such as consulting geologists, geo-technicians and drillers, and drilling equipment. Although Chile has a well-trained and qualified mining workforce from which to draw and few early-stage companies such as Red Metal are competing for the available resources, if the Company is unable to find the personnel and equipment needed at the prices that were budgeted for the programs, the Company might have to revise or postpone its exploration plans.

OVERVIEW OF MINERAL PROPERTIES As of the date of this MD&A the Company has three active copper-gold projects on two properties, namely theFarellón and Perth Projects both located on the Carrizal Property, and the Mateo Project located on the Mateo Property (see Figure 1 below) Picture 3

Figure 1 - Location and access to active properties (accessible by road from Vallenar)

Mineral Tenure

Chile’s current mining and land tenure policies were incorporated into laws in 1982 and amended in 1983. The laws were established to secure the property rights of both domestic and foreign investors to stimulate mining development in Chile. While the state owns all mineral resources, exploration and exploitation of these resources is permitted by acquiring mining concessions which are granted by the courts according to the law.

Concessions are defined by UTM coordinates representing the centre-point of the concession and dimensions (in metres) in north-south and east-west directions. There are two kinds of concessions, mining and exploration, and three possible stages of a concession to get from an exploration concession to a mining concession: ‘pedimento’, ‘manifestacion’, and ‘mensura’ (see below for descriptions). An exploration concession (‘pedimento’) can be placed on any area, whereas the survey to establish a permanent exploitation concession (‘mensura’) can only be effected on “free” areas where no other mensuras exist.

RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.<br><br><br>Management's Discussion and Analysis<br><br><br>As of April 30, 2022

Pedimento

A pedimento is an initial exploration concession with well-defined UTM coordinates delineating the north-south and east-west boundaries. The minimum size of a pedimento is 100 ha and the maximum is 5,000 ha, with a maximum length-to-width ratio of 5:1. A pedimento is valid for a maximum period of 2 years. At the end of the 2-year period it can either be reduced in size by at least 50% and renewed for an additional 2 years or, entered into the process to establish a permanent concession by converting it into a manifestacion. New pedimentos are allowed to overlap pre-existing pedimentos, however, the pedimento with the earliest filing date always takes precedence providing the concession holder maintains their concession in accordance with the Mining Code of Chile and the applicable regulations.

Manifestacion

Before a pedimento expires, or at any stage during its two-year life (including the first day the pedimento is registered), it may be converted to a manifestacion. A manifestacion is valid for 220 days, and then prior to the expiry date, the owner must request an upgrade to a mensura.

Mensura

Prior to the expiration of a manifestacion, the owner must request a survey (mensura). After acceptance of the Survey Request (‘Solicitud de Mensura’), the owner has approximately 12 months to have the concession surveyed by a government licensed surveyor. The surrounding concession owners may witness the survey, which is subsequently described in a legal format and presented to the National Mining Service of Chile (Sernageomin) for technical review, which includes field inspection and verification. Following the technical approval by Sernageomin, the file returns to a judge of the appropriate jurisdiction, who dictates the constitution of the claim as a mensura (equivalent to a patented claim in Canada). Once constituted, an abstract describing the claim is published in Chile’s official mining bulletin (published weekly), and 30 days later the claim can be inscribed in the appropriate Mining Registry (Conservador de Minas).

Once constituted, a mensura is a permanent property right, with no expiration date. As long as the annual fees (‘patentes’) are paid in a timely manner (from March to May of each year), clear title and ownership of the mineral rights is assured in perpetuity. Failure to pay the annual patentes for an extended period can result in the concession being listed for ‘remate’ (auction sale), wherein a third party may acquire a concession for the payment of back taxes owed (plus a penalty payment). In such a case, the claim is included in a list published 30 days prior to the auction and the owner has the possibility of paying the back taxes plus penalty and thus removing the claim from the auction list.

Due to the complicated nature of the land tenure system in Chile, Red Metal has engaged a land tenure specialist who sends a monthly report on the status of all claims in the areas we are working in.  This report includes a list of any new concessions in our area along and any obligation on our part to notify new concession holders of our existing concessions.

2022 Drill Program on Farellón Alto 1-8

During January - February 2022, the Company successfully completed a nine-hole 2,010m drill program on Farellón Alto 1-8 concession. The drill program targeted down dip extensions of known mineralized zones as well as testing new zones.

Highlights

·First hole on new zone intercepted six meters of vein with strong visible copper sulphides; further 1.5 km of untested strike length;

·All holes have intercepted visible copper sulphide mineralization and alteration associated with IOCG deposits; and

·Diamond drill core provided valuable alteration and structural information not seen in previous RC drilling.

Diamond Drilling

First five drillholes were focused at the northern end of the previously drilled Farellón project close to the artisanal mine workings. All five drill holes intercepted zones of sulphide mineralization including chalcopyrite and chalcocite, zones of strong alteration associated with IOCG deposits and breccia zones up to 20m in width.  Significant elements noted in initial observations included widespread potassic and argillic alteration and significant amounts of iron oxides transitioning from hematite into magnetite at depth.

RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.<br><br><br>Management's Discussion and Analysis<br><br><br>As of April 30, 2022

The final four drillholes of the program targeted the south and north end of the Farellón zone and tested a previously undrilled structure parallel to the Farellón zone.  These four drillholes intercepted zones of sulphide mineralization including chalcopyrite and chalcocite and zones of strong alteration associated with IOCG deposits.

Table **** 5 - Summary of holes ^(1)^

Drillhole Target Length Highlights
FAR-22-012 Farellón North 143 9 metre zone with visible copper sulphide mineralization, infill gap in historic drilling
FAR-22-013 Farellón North 170 Extending known mineralization down dip by ~50m, 23-metre zone of quartz/calcite veining with copper sulphides
FAR-22-014 Farellón North 158 Step out ~100m along strike
FAR-22-015 Farellón North 266 Down dip from FAR-22-014
FAR-22-016 Farellón North 286 Extend known mineralization to 196m vertical depth
FAR-22-017 Farellón South 326 Mineralized breccia zone at 236-243m
FAR-22-018 Farellón South 293 Multiple zones of disseminated chalcopyrite mineralization and intense IOCG associated alteration

FAR-22-020 New Zone 182 142-147.6m quartz calcite vein with strong chalcopyrite mineralization and actinolite, iron and sericite alteration

^(1)^ Widths are drill-indicated core length as insufficient drilling has been undertaken to determine true widths at this time.

New Zone Drill Tested

The newly tested parallel structure lies approximately 250 metres west of the Farellón vein and was mapped and sampled on surface in 2012. Mapping completed in 2012 traced the vein continuously over approximately 1.5km.  All six surface samples taken along the structure in 2012 are listed below and all samples returned significant copper, gold and cobalt. The structure was tested with one drillhole and a six-metre quartz calcite vein was intercepted from 142m to 142.6m with visible chalcopyrite mineralization, intense pyrrhotite, albite and actinolite alteration.

In June 2022, the Company announced the assay results for four of the nine holes drilled.

Highlights

·Results for four drillholes were proven to be consistent with historic drilling;

·FAR-22-020: 5.7m of 1.10% Cu, 0.12% Co and 0.25 g/t Au, a first intercept on a new vein previously only sampled at surface, the Gordal Vein

·FAR-22-017: 3.6m of 1.36% Cu, 0.01% Co and 0.42 g/t Au, this intercept confirms continuity of the mineralized structure and extends mineralization approximately 25 metres down dip to a vertical depth of approximately 200 metres on the south Farellón zone

·Mineralization remains open down dip on all areas drilled

Work is ongoing on the Farellón project to continue to expand the Company’s knowledge of the Gordal vein through mapping of structures and alteration on surface. The first significant amount of diamond drilling has allowed the geological team to better understand the mineralized structures and associated alteration that can now be applied to the rest of the property. The mapping program will result in new targets which the Company is planning to test in the next phase of drilling.  The Company’s management believes there remains significant unrealized potential in the numerous veins observed on surface but not yet thoroughly investigated.

Sample Preparation, Analysis, and Security

Red Metal has implemented a quality control program to comply with industry best practices for sampling, chain of custody, and analyses. Certified copper gold reference standards, blanks and duplicates are inserted at the core processing site as part of the QA/QC program in addition to the control samples inserted by the lab.

Recommended Plan of Exploration and Development

Based on the positive results from the multiple past exploration programs on the Farellón Project area, as well as successful 2022 drill program, the Company will continue with a planned 20,000m drill program to test down to 400m depth with enough intercepts to complete an initial mineral resource estimate. The Company has budgeted approximately $5,202,000 for this drill program.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

During the three-month period ended April 30, 2022, the Company reported a net loss of $836,847 as compared to net loss of $167,638 the Company incurred during the three-month period ended April 30, 2021. The Company’s total operating expenses during the three-month period ended April 30, 2022, were $795,664, an increase of $657,184 as compared to $138,480 the Company reported for the three-month period ended April 30, 2021. The largest factor that contributed to the increase in operating expenses was attributed to $521,261 in exploration expenses, which were associated with the drill program on the Company’s Farellón Alto 1 - 8 concession; during the comparative three-month period ended April 30, 2021, the Company spent $11,578 on exploration expenses, which were associated with an initial preparation of the Farellón Alto 1-8 concession for planned drill program. The Company’s general and administrative expenses increased by $141,387 to $160,399 during the period ended April 30, 2022, as compared to $19,012 for the period ended April 30, 2021. The largest component of general and administrative expenses was associated with $102,677 in value added tax (“IVA”) the Company recorded on its vendor payables (2021 - $1,586), and $40,333 the Company spent on advertising and promotion fees (2021 - $6,835). The Company expenses its Chilean IVA as this tax can only be offset against tax payable by the Company on revenue-generating activities, which the Company does not expect to start generating in the foreseeable future.

In addition to the above noted expenses, the Company incurred $52,120 in consulting fees to its management, the companies controlled by them, and to external consultants, an increase of $17,122, as comapred to $34,998, the Company incurred for the three-month period ended April 30, 2021. The regulatory fees and salaries, wages and  benefits amounted to $19,461 and $18,224, respectively, representing increases of $15,697 adn $8,792 as compared to $3,764 and $9,432, the Company incurred during the comparative period.

The above increases in operating expenses, were in part offset by a $34,361 decrease in professional fees, to $19,822 as compared to $54,183 the Company incurred during the three-month period ended April 30, 2021; and by a $3,000 decrease in office rent fees, as the Company was not required to pay any rent during the three-month period ended April 30, 2022.

In addition to the regular business operating expenses, the Company’s overall net loss for the three-month period ended April 30, 2022, was effected by $35,837 in interest payable on the notes payable the Company issued to its related parties (2021 - $27,469), which was further increased by $5,346 loss on foreign exchange fluctuations (2021 - $1,689).

RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.<br><br><br>Management's Discussion and Analysis<br><br><br>As of April 30, 2022

issuing 3,849,668 units at a price of $0.15 per unit (each a “Unit”) for gross proceeds of $577,450 (the “Unit Offering”). The Company raised further $969,131 by issuing 6,460,872 subscription receipts (each a “Subscription Receipt”) from its non-brokered private placement of subscription receipts, which the Company closed on June 15, 2021. On May 16, 2022, the Company closed the first tranche of a non-brokered private placement (the “2022 Offering”) by issuing 3,308,666 units (the “2022 Units”) at a price of $0.15 per 2022 Unit for gross proceeds of $496,300, of which $25,250 the Company received during the three-month period ended April 30, 2022.

The Company did not generate cash flows from its operating activities to satisfy the cash requirements for the three-month period ended April 30, 2022. The amount of cash that the Company has generated from its operations to date is significantly less than its current and long-term debt obligations, including advances and notes payable to related parties. To service the Company’s debt, management relies mainly on attracting cash through debt or equity financing.

RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.<br><br><br>Management's Discussion and Analysis<br><br><br>As of April 30, 2022

Purchaser. The Company’s CEO agreed to acquire the NSR for $1,919 (USD$1,500), CFO agreed to acquire the NSR for $1,279 (USD$1,000), and the major shareholder agreed to acquire the NSR for $3,198 (USD$2,500).

The NSR will be paid quarterly once commercial exploitation begins and will be paid on gold, silver, copper and cobalt sales. If, within two years, the Company does not commence commercial exploitation of the mineral properties, an annual payment of USD$10,000 per purchaser will be paid.

Pursuant to Chilean law, the NSR agreements will come in force only when registered against the land title in Chile. Due to temporary safety restrictions associated with COVID-19 pandemic, the registration of the NSR Agreements has been deferred, therefore the payments made by the CEO, CFO, and the major shareholder have been recorded as advances on the books of the Company and will be applied towards the NSR Agreements, once they are fully legalized.

On October 31, 2021, the Company and its related parties agreed to defer certain debt the Company owed to them until January 31, 2023. As at January 31, 2022, the following amounts were included in long-term debt due to related parties

New accounting standards and interpretations

Accounting standards, amendments to standards, or interpretations 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 condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

General

The Company is in the business of exploring and, if warranted, developing mineral properties, which is a highly speculative endeavor. A purchase of any of the common shares involves a high degree of risk and should be undertaken only by purchasers whose financial resources are sufficient to enable them to assume such risks and who have no need for immediate liquidity in their investment. An investment in the common shares should not constitute a significant portion of an individual's investment portfolio and should be made only by persons who can afford a total loss of their investment. Prospective shareholders should evaluate carefully the following risk factors associated with an investment in the common shares.

The following risks and uncertainties could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to management of the Company or that are currently deemed immaterial may also impair the Company’s operations and financial condition.

Risks Relating to our recent Conversion and Continuation

The **** Company **** may **** still **** be **** treated **** as **** a **** U.S. **** corporation **** and **** taxed **** on **** our **** worldwide **** income **** after **** the **** conversion **** and **** continuation.

The conversion and continuation of the Company from the State of Nevada to the Province of British Columbia, Canada is considered a migration of the Company from the State of Nevada to the Province of British Columbia, Canada. Certain transactions whereby a U.S. corporation migrates to a foreign jurisdiction can be considered by the United States Congress to be an abuse of the U.S. tax rules because thereafter the foreign entity is not subject to U.S. tax on its worldwide income. Section 7874(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), was enacted in 2004 to address this potential abuse. Section 7874(b) of the Code provides generally that certain corporations that migrate from the United States will nonetheless remain subject to U.S. tax on their worldwide income unless the migrating entity has substantial business activities in the foreign country to which it is migrating when compared to its total business activities.

If Section 7874(b) of the Code applied to the migration of the Company from the State of Nevada to the Province of British Columbia, Canada, Red Metal would continue to be subject to United States federal income taxation on its worldwide income. Section 7874(b) of the Code could apply to the Company’s migration unless it had substantial business activities in Canada when compared to its total business activities.

The **** Company **** may **** be **** classified **** as **** a **** Passive **** Foreign **** Investment **** Company **** as **** a **** result **** of **** the **** merger **** and **** continuation.

Sections 1291 to 1298 of the Code contain the Passive Foreign Investment Company (“PFIC”) rules. These rules generally provide for punitive treatment of “U.S. holders” of PFICs. A foreign corporation is classified as a PFIC if more than 75% of its gross income is passive income or more than 50% of its assets produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income.

Because most of the Company’s assets after the conversion and continuation are in cash or cash equivalents and shares of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Minera Polymet SpA, the Company may in the future be classified as a PFIC. If Red Metal is classified as a PFIC, then the holders of shares of the Company who are U.S.


18 | Page


RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.<br><br><br>Management's Discussion and Analysis<br><br><br>As of April 30, 2022

taxpayers may be subject to PFIC provisions which may impose U.S. taxes, in addition to those normally applicable, on the sale of their shares of the Company or on distribution from the Company.

Holders of shares of the Company who are U.S. taxpayers should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the application of the PFIC rules in their particular circumstances.

Negative **** Operating **** Cash **** Flow

Mineral exploration and development are very expensive. During the three-month period ended April 30, 2022, the Company earned no revenue while the net loss from operations totaled $836,847.

The Company’s operating expenses for the three-month period ended April 30, 2022, totaled $795,664 (2021 - $138,480). These expenses were further increased by $35,837 (2021 - $27,469) in interest the Company accrued on its notes payable and by $5,346 loss on foreign exchange fluctuation (2021 - $1,689).

As of April 30, 2022, the Company had $166,451 in cash on hand. Since inception, the Company has supported its operations through equity and debt financing and, to a minor extent, through option payments received on its option or joint venture agreements, and royalty payments from third-party vendors, who the Company allowed to mine its mineral claims. The Company’s ability to continue its operations, including exploring and developing its mineral properties, will depend on its ability to generate operating revenue, obtain additional financing, or enter into joint venture agreements. Until the Company earns enough revenue to support its operations, which may never happen, the Company will continue to be dependent on loans and sales of its equity or debt securities to continue the development and exploration activities. If the Company do not find sources of financing as and when it needs them, the Company may be required to severely curtail, or even to cease, its operations.

Insufficient **** Capital

The Company was incorporated on January 10, 2005, and to date has been involved primarily in organizational activities, acquiring and exploring mineral claims and obtaining financing. The Company’s financial statements have been prepared assuming that it will continue as a going concern. From the Company’s inception, on January 10, 2005, the Company has accumulated losses of $12,981,611. As a result, the Company’s management has expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The continuation of the Company’s operations depends on its ability to complete equity or debt financings as needed or generate capital from profitable operations. Such financings may not be available or may not be available on reasonable terms. The Company’s financial statements do not include any adjustments that could result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Whether the Company will be successful as a mining company must be considered in light of the costs, difficulties, complications and delays associated with its proposed exploration programs. These potential problems include, but are not limited to, finding claims with mineral deposits that can be cost-effectively mined, the costs associated with acquiring such properties and the unavailability of human or equipment resources.  The Company cannot provide assurance it will ever generate significant revenue from its operations or realize a profit. The Company expects to continue to incur operating losses during the next 12 months.

Debt **** Owing **** to **** Related **** Parties

As of April 30, 2022, the Company owed $301,744 to related parties for the services and reimbursable expenses they have provided; in addition, the Company owed its related parties $2,028,826 on account of notes payable, which are payable on or after January 31, 2023. The Company does not have the cash resources to pay the long-term debt; therefore, it may decide to partially pay these individuals by issuing shares of the Company’s common stock to them. Because of the low market value of the Company’s common stock, the issuance of shares will result in substantial dilution to the percentage of the outstanding common stock owned by current shareholders.


19 | Page


RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.<br><br><br>Management's Discussion and Analysis<br><br><br>As of April 30, 2022

Financing **** Risks

The Company has no history of significant earnings and, due to the nature of its business, there can be no assurance that the Company will be profitable. The Company has paid no dividends on its shares since incorporation and does not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future. The only present source of funds available to the Company is through the sale of its securities. Even if the results of any future 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 on the Properties. While the Company may generate additional working capital through equity offerings or through the sale or possible syndication of the Properties, there is no assurance that any such funds will be available. If available, future equity financing may result in substantial dilution to shareholders

Speculative **** Nature **** of **** Mineral **** Exploration

Resource exploration is a speculative business, characterized by a number of significant risks including, among other things, unprofitable efforts resulting not only from the failure to discover mineral deposits but also from finding mineral deposits that, though present, are insufficient in quantity and quality to return a profit from production. The marketability of minerals acquired or discovered by the Company may be affected by numerous factors which are beyond the control of the Company and which cannot be accurately predicted, such as market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of milling facilities, mineral markets and processing equipment and such other factors as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection, the combination of which factors may result in the Company not receiving an adequate return of investment capital.

There is no assurance that the Company’s mineral exploration and development activities will result in any discoveries of commercial bodies of ore. The long-term profitability of the Company’s operations will, in part, be directly related to the costs and success of its exploration programs, which may be affected by a number of factors. Substantial expenditures are required to establish reserves through drilling and 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.

No **** Known **** Mineral **** Reserves

It is unknown whether the Properties contain viable mineral reserves. If the Company does not find a viable mineral reserve, or if it cannot exploit the mineral reserve, either because the Company does not have the money to do it or because it will not be economically feasible to do so, the Company may have to cease operations and you may lose your investment. Mineral exploration is a highly speculative endeavor. It involves many risks and is often non-productive. Even if mineral reserves are discovered on the Properties, the Company’s production capabilities will be subject to further risks and uncertainties including:

•Costs of bringing the property into production including exploration work, preparation of production feasibility studies, and construction of production facilities, all of which the Company has not budgeted for;

•Availability and costs of financing;

•Ongoing costs of production; and

•Environmental compliance regulations and restraints.

RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.<br><br><br>Management's Discussion and Analysis<br><br><br>As of April 30, 2022

Market **** Factors **** May **** Affect **** Ability **** to **** Market **** Any **** Minerals **** Found

Even if the Company discovers minerals that can be extracted in a cost-effective manner, it may not be able to find a ready market for its minerals. Many factors beyond the Company’s control affect the marketability of minerals. These factors include market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of natural resource markets and processing equipment, government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use, importing and exporting minerals and environmental protection. The Company cannot accurately predict the effect of these factors, but any combination of these factors could result in an inadequate return on invested capital.

Mineral **** Exploration **** is **** Hazardous

The search for minerals is hazardous. In the course of exploration, development and production of mineral properties, the Company could incur liability or damages as it conducts its business due to the dangers inherent in mineral exploration, including pollution, cave-ins, fires, flooding, earthquakes and other hazards. It is not always possible to fully insure against such risks or against which the Company may elect not to insure. The Company has no insurance for these types of hazards, nor does it expect to obtain such insurance for the foreseeable future. Should such liabilities arise, they could reduce or eliminate any future profitability and result in increasing costs and a decline in the value of the securities of the Company.

Government **** Regulations

The mining business is subject to various levels of government control and regulation, which are supplemented and revised from time to time. The Company cannot predict what legislation or revisions might be proposed that could affect its business or when any such proposals, if enacted, might become effective. The Company’s exploration activities are subject to laws and regulations governing worker safety, and, if it explores within the national park that is part of its Farellón property, protection of endangered and other special status species as well as protection of significant archeological remains, if there are any, will likely require compliance with additional laws and regulations. The cost of complying with these regulations has not been burdensome to date, but if the Company mines the Properties and processes more than 5,000 tonnes of ore monthly, it will be required to submit an environmental impact study for review and approval by the federal environmental agency. The Company anticipates that the cost of such a study will be significant and, if the study were to show too great an adverse impact on the environment, the Company might be unable to develop the property or it might have to engage in expensive remedial measures during or after developing the property, which could make production unprofitable. This requirement could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, the results of its operations and its financial condition if it were to proceed to mine a property or process ore on the property.

The **** Company **** has **** no **** immediate **** or **** intermediate **** plans **** to **** process **** ore **** on **** any **** of **** the **** Properties

If the Company does not comply with applicable environmental and health and safety laws and regulations, it could be fined, enjoined from continuing its operations, and suffer other penalties. Although the Company makes every attempt to comply with these laws and regulations, it cannot provide assurance that it has fully complied or will always fully comply with them.

Environmental **** and **** Safety **** Regulations **** and **** Risks

Environmental laws and regulations may affect the operations of the Company. These laws and regulations set various standards regulating certain aspects of health and environmental quality. They provide for penalties and other liabilities for the violation of such standards and establish, in certain circumstances, obligations to rehabilitate current and former facilities and locations where operations are or were conducted. The permission to operate can be withdrawn temporarily where there is evidence of serious breaches of health and safety standards, or even permanently in the case of extreme breaches. Significant liabilities could be imposed on the Company for damages, clean-up costs or penalties in the event of certain discharges into the environment, environmental damage caused by previous owners of acquired properties or noncompliance with environmental laws or regulations. In all major developments, the Company generally relies on recognized designers and development

RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.<br><br><br>Management's Discussion and Analysis<br><br><br>As of April 30, 2022

contractors from which the Company will, in the first instance, seek indemnities. The Company minimizes risks by taking steps to ensure compliance with environmental, health and safety laws and regulations and operating to applicable environmental standards. There is a risk that environmental laws and regulations may become more onerous, making the Company’s operations more expensive.

Competition

The mining industry is intensely competitive in all its phases. The Company competes for the acquisition of mineral properties, claims, leases and other mineral interests as well as for the recruitment and retention of qualified employees with many companies possessing greater financial resources and technical facilities than the Company. The competition in the mineral exploration and development business could have an adverse effect on the Company’s ability to acquire suitable properties or prospects for mineral exploration in the future.

Stress **** in **** the **** Global **** Economy ****

Negative fluctuations in a state of global economy may cause general tightening in the credit markets, lower levels of liquidity, increases in the rates of default and bankruptcy, and lower business spending, all of which may have a negative effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. The Company’s suppliers may not be able to supply it with needed raw materials on a timely basis, may increase prices or go out of business, which could result in the inability of the Company to carry out its planned exploration programs. Furthermore, it may become difficult to locate other mineral exploration companies with available funds willing to engage in risky ventures such as the exploration of the Properties.

Such conditions may make it very difficult to forecast operating results, make business decisions and identify and address material business risks. As a result, the Company’s operating results, financial condition and business could be adversely affected.

The **** Company **** conducts **** operations **** in **** a **** foreign **** jurisdiction **** and **** is **** subject **** to **** certain **** risks **** that **** may **** limit **** or **** disrupt **** its **** business **** operations.

The Company’s head office is in Canada and its mining operations are in Chile. Mining investments are subject to the risks normally associated with the conduct of any business in foreign countries including uncertain political and economic environments; wars, terrorism and civil disturbances; changes in laws or policies, including those relating to imports, exports, duties and currency; cancellation or renegotiation of contracts; royalty and tax increases or other claims by government entities, including retroactive claims; risk of expropriation and nationalization; delays in obtaining or the inability to obtain or maintain necessary governmental permits; currency fluctuations; restrictions on the ability of local operating companies to sell gold, copper or other minerals offshore for U.S. or Canadian dollars, and on the ability of such companies to hold U.S. or Canadian dollars or other foreign currencies in offshore bank accounts; import and export regulations, including restrictions on the export of gold, copper or other minerals; limitations on the repatriation of earnings; and increased financing costs.

These risks could limit or disrupt the Company’s exploration programs, cause it to lose its interests in its mineral claims, restrict the movement of funds, cause it to spend more than it expected, deprive it of contract rights or result in its operations being nationalized or expropriated without fair compensation, and could materially adversely affect the Company’s financial position or the results of its operations. If a dispute arises from the Company’s activities in Chile, the Company could be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of courts outside North America, which could adversely affect the outcome of the dispute.

Legal **** ownership **** of **** the **** claims **** included **** in **** the **** Company’s **** portfolio

The Company’s ability to realize a return on its investment in mineral claims depends upon whether it maintains the legal ownership of the claims. While the Company takes steps it believes are necessary to maintain legal ownership of its claims, title to mineral claims may be invalidated for a number of reasons, including errors in the transfer history or acquisition of a claim the Company believed, after appropriate due diligence investigation, to be valid, but in fact, wasn’t. The Company takes a number of steps to protect the legal ownership of its claims,

including having its contracts and deeds notarized, recording these documents with the registry of mines and publishing them in the mining bulletin. The Company also reviews the mining bulletin regularly to determine whether other parties have staked claims over its ground. However, none of these steps guarantees that another party could not challenge the Company’s right to a claim. Any such challenge could be costly to defend and, if the Company lost its claim, its business and prospects would likely be materially and adversely affected.

No **** Anticipation **** of **** Payment **** of **** Dividends

A dividend has never been declared or paid in cash on the common shares. The Company does not anticipate such a declaration or payment for the foreseeable future. The Company intends to retain any earnings to develop, carry on, and expand its business.

Price **** Volatility **** of **** Publicly **** Traded **** Securities ****

In recent years, the securities markets in Canada have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market prices of securities of many companies have experienced wide fluctuations in price which have not necessarily been related to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. There can be no assurance that continual fluctuations in price will not occur. It may be anticipated that any quoted market for the common shares will be subject to market trends generally, notwithstanding any potential success of the Company in creating revenues, cash flows or earnings. The value of common shares will be affected by such volatility.

Fluctuating **** Mineral **** Prices **** and **** Currency **** Risk

The Company’s revenues, if any, are expected to be in large part derived from the extraction and sale of precious and base minerals and metals. Factors beyond the control of the Company may affect the marketability of metals discovered, if any. Metal prices have fluctuated widely, particularly in recent years. Consequently, the economic viability of any of the Company’s exploration projects cannot be accurately predicted and may be adversely affected by fluctuations in mineral prices.

The Company sometimes holds a significant portion of its cash in U.S. dollars. Currency exchange rate fluctuations can result in conversion gains and losses and diminish the value of its U.S. dollars. If the U.S. dollar declined significantly against the Canadian dollar or the Chilean peso, its U.S. dollar purchasing power in Canadian dollars and Chilean pesos would also significantly decline and that could make it more difficult for the Company to conduct its business operations. The Company has not entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations.

Management

The success of the Company is currently largely dependent on the performance of its directors and officers. The loss of the services of any of these persons could have a materially adverse effect on the Company's business and prospects. There is no assurance the Company can maintain the services of its directors, officers or other qualified personnel required to operate its business.

Key **** Person **** Insurance ****

The Company does not maintain key person insurance on any of its directors or officers, and as result the Company would bear the full loss and expense of hiring and replacing any director or officer in the event the loss of any such persons by their resignation, retirement, incapacity, or death, as well as any loss of business opportunity or other costs suffered by the Company from such loss of any director or officer.

Difficulty **** for **** United **** States **** Investors **** to **** Effect **** Services **** of **** Process **** Against **** the **** Company.

The Company is incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada. Consequently, it will be difficult for United States investors to affect service of process in the United States upon the directors or officers of the Company, or to realize in the United States upon judgments of United States courts predicated upon civil liabilities under the Exchange Act. The majority of the Company’s directors and officers are residents of Canada and all of the Company’s material assets are located outside of the United States. A judgment of a United States court predicated solely upon such civil liabilities would probably be enforceable in Canada by a Canadian court if the United States court in which the judgment was obtained had jurisdiction, as determined by the Canadian court, in the matter. There is substantial doubt whether an original action could be brought successfully in Canada against any of such persons or the Company predicated solely upon such civil liabilities.

Conflicts **** of **** Interest ****

Some of the directors and officers are engaged and will continue to be engaged in the search for additional business opportunities on behalf of other corporations, and situations may arise where these directors and officers will be in direct competition with the Company. Conflicts, if any, will be dealt with in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). Some of the directors and officers of the Company are or may become directors or officers of other companies engaged in other business ventures. In order to avoid the possible conflict of interest which may arise between the directors' duties to the Company and their duties to the other companies on whose boards they serve, the directors and officers of the Company have agreed to the following:

•Participation in other business ventures offered to the directors will be allocated between the various companies and on the basis of prudent business judgment and the relative financial abilities and needs of the companies to participate;

•No commissions or other extraordinary consideration will be paid to such directors and officers; and

•Business opportunities formulated by or through other companies in which the directors and officers are involved will not be offered to the Company except on the same or better terms than the basis on which they are offered to third party participants.

Penny **** Stock **** Rules **** May **** Make **** Buying **** or **** Selling **** Our **** Common **** Stock **** Difficult, **** and **** Severely **** Limit **** its **** Marketability **** and **** Liquidity

Because the Company’s securities are considered a penny stock, shareholders will be more limited in their ability to sell their shares. The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than USD$5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or quotation system. Because the Company’s securities constitute “penny stocks” within the meaning of the rules, the rules apply to the Company and to its securities. The rules may further affect the ability of owners of shares to sell the Company’s securities in any market that might develop for them. As long as the trading price of the Common Shares is less than USD$5.00 per share, the Common Shares will be subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that:

·Contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading;

·Contains a description of the broker’s or dealer’s duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of securities laws;

·Contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price;

·Contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions;

·Defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and

·Contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type, size and format, as the SEC

RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.<br><br><br>Management's Discussion and Analysis<br><br><br>As of April 30, 2022

shall require by rule or regulation.

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with: (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such shares; and (d) a monthly account statement showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitably statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for the Common Shares.

Tax **** Issues

Income tax consequences in relation to the common shares will vary according to circumstances of each investor. Prospective investors should seek independent advice from their own tax and legal advisers prior to investing in common shares of the Company.

Other **** Risks **** and **** Uncertainties ****

Although the Company has tried to identify all significant risks, it may not have identified all risks, and other risks may exist. The Company has sought to identify what it believes to be the most significant risks to its business, but it cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized nor can it guarantee that it has identified all possible risks that might arise. Investors should carefully consider all of such risk factors before making an investment decision with respect to the Company’s common shares.

Financial Instruments

Fair **** value

Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 - Inputs that are not based on observable market data.

The Company has classified its cash as measured at fair value in the statement of financial position, using level 1 inputs. The estimated fair value of financial liabilities, being accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and due to related parties, approximates their carrying values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Capital management

The Company manages its capital to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, to ensure future benefits to stakeholders, and to have sufficient funds on hand for business opportunities as they arise.

The Company considers the items included in share capital as capital. The Company manages the capital structure and adjusts it in the light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may issue new shares through short-term prospectuses, private placements, sell assets, incur debt, or return capital to shareholders. As at the date of the filing of this MD&A, the Company does not have any debt that is subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

RED METAL RESOURCES LTD.<br><br><br>Management's Discussion and Analysis<br><br><br>As of April 30, 2022

The Company is exposed to various financial instrument risks and assesses the impact and likelihood of this exposure. These risks include liquidity risk, credit risk, and market risk. Where material, these risks are reviewed and monitored by the Board of Directors.

a)Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company has a planning and budgeting process in place to help determine the funds required to support the  Company’s normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis. Historically, the Company's sources of funding have been through equity financings and loans from the Company’s management and its major shareholder; however, the Company cannot be certain that it will be able to raise sufficient funds to meet its short-term business requirements.

Table 14 details the remaining contractual maturities of the Company’s financial liabilities as of January 31, 2022.

Table 14 -  Contractual maturities of financial liabilities

Within 1 year 1-5 years 5+ years
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities $ 178,542 $ - $ -
Amounts due to related parties 301,744 - -
Loans payable^(1)^ 2,154,688 - -
Withholding taxes payable - - 144,005
$ 2,634,974 $ - $ 144,005

^(1)^ Payments denominated in foreign currencies have been translated using the April 30, 2022, exchange rate.

b)Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of potential loss to the Company if a customer or counter party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s credit risk is limited to the carrying amount on the statement of financial position and arises from the Company’s cash, which is held with high-credit quality financial institutions in Canada and in Chile. As such, the Company’s credit risk exposure is minimal.

c)Market risk

Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and equity prices.

i.Currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because they are denominated in currencies that differ from the respective functional currency. The Company has offices in Canada and Chile, and holds cash in Canadian, United States, and Chilean Peso currencies. A significant change in the currency exchange rates between the Canadian dollar relative to US dollar and Chilean Peso could have an effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, and/or cash flows. At January 31, 2022, the Company had no hedging agreements in place with respect to foreign exchange rates. As the majority of the transactions of the Company are denominated in CAD and Chilean Peso currencies, movements in the foreign exchange rates are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

ii.Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company has minimal interest rate risk as it has no interest accumulating financial assets that may become susceptible to interest rate fluctuations.

iii.Equity Price risk

Equity price risk is the risk that the fair value of equity/securities decreases as a result of changes in the levels of equity indices and the value of individual stocks. The Company is not exposed to equity price risk as it does not have any investments in marketable securities.

CONTINGENCIES

There are no contingent liabilities.
