HORIZON MINERALS CORP.

Notes to Financial Statements

For The Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 and 2016

(Expressed In US Dollars)

(Unaudited)



NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS


Horizon Minerals Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on May 11, 2011. On October 4, 2016, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with an arms-length party to acquire 1,223 lithium mineral claims in Nevada and California (the “Claims”). The acquisition resulted in a shift of the Company’s business model to that of a mineral exploration.


The Company’s financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) which contemplate the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has funded its operations through the issuance of capital stock and debt. Management intends to obtain additional funding by borrowing funds from its directors and officers, issuing promissory notes and/or a private placement of common stock. There is no certainty that further funding will be available as needed. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue operating as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue its operations as a going concern, realize the carrying value of its assets, and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business is dependent upon its ability to raise new capital sufficient to fund its commitments and ongoing losses, and ultimately on generating profitable operations. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.


NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION


The unaudited interim financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2016. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2017, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017. For further information, these unaudited interim financial statements and the related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016, included in the Company’s report on Form 10-K.


Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts in the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the results of operations or financial position for any period presented.


NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS


As at March 31, 2017, the Company was indebted to Mr. Robert Fedun, a director, CEO and CFO of the Company, in the amount of $19,038 (December 31, 2016 - $10,038).  Of this balance, $1,038 (December 31, 2016 - $1,038) was associated with advances given to the Company by Mr. Fedun; and $18,000 (December 31, 2016 - $9,000) was associated with the services provided by Mr. Fedun. Amounts due to related party are due on demand, bear no interest, and are unsecured.


During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company accrued $9,000 (March 31, 2016 - $9,000) in consulting fees to Mr. Fedun. The consulting fees were recorded as part of professional fees on the Statement of Operations.

NOTE 4 - UNPROVED MINERAL PROPERTIES


On October 4, 2016, the Company entered into the Agreement with an arms-length party (the “Vendor”) to acquire 423 twenty-acre lithium mineral claims situated in southern Nye County, Nevada and 600 twenty-acre lithium mineral claims located in California, for a total of 1,023 claims. As consideration for the Claims the Company agreed to issue the Vendor thirty million (30,000,000) restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, which shares were issued on October 4, 2016. The value recorded for this acquisition was determined based on the estimated fair value of the Claims. In addition to the above payment, the Company agreed to pay a 2.0% carried gross production royalty on any mineral or fluid production from the Claims.


On December 20, 2016, the Company amended the Agreement to increase the number of claims acquired by the Company from the Vendor from 1,023 claims to 1,365 claims, of which 306 claim units totaling 6,120 acres are fully registered and renewed and 1,059 claim units totaling 20,540 acres have been located, however, for which required fees have not been paid. To finalize the registration of the located units the Company will be required to pay the filing fees within 90 days from the date the claims were located.


During the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, the Company did not have any expenditures associated with exploration activities on the Claims.


NOTE 5 - THIRD PARTY NOTES PAYABLE


On November 1, 2016, the Company entered into a credit line agreement (the “Qinn Agreement”) with Qinn Media Limited (“Qinn Media”). Pursuant to the Qinn Agreement, the Company can use up to $60,000 for a duration of one year, expiring on October 31, 2017 (the “Credit Line”). Principal borrowed under the Credit Line is unsecured, and accrues interest at 8% per annum compounded annually. As at March 31, 2017, the Company had borrowed $39,850 (December 31, 2016 - $39,850), and accrued $1,209 in interest associated with the Credit Line (December 31, 2016 - $423).


During the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, the Company borrowed $50,278 from non-related parties in exchange for the notes payable. The amounts borrowed under the notes payable are due on demand, unsecured, and bear interest at 5% per annum compounded monthly.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Plan of Operations


Forward-Looking Statements


This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements about our business, financial condition and prospects that reflect management’s assumptions and beliefs based on information currently available.  We can give no assurance that the expectations indicated by such forward-looking statements will be realized.  If any of our management’s assumptions should prove incorrect, or if any of the risks and uncertainties underlying such expectations should materialize, our actual results may differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements.


Forward looking statements are based on the reasonable assumptions, estimates, analysis and opinions of management made in light of its experience and perception of trends, current conditions and expected developments, as well as other factors that management believes to be relevant and reasonable at the date such statements are made.


We intend to discuss in our Quarterly Reports and Annual Reports any events or circumstances that occurred during the period to which such documents relate that are reasonably likely to cause actual events or circumstances to differ materially from those disclosed in this Quarterly Report. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all of such factors and to assess in advance the impact of each such factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of such factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward looking statements.


We advise you to carefully review the reports and documents we file from time to time with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), particularly our periodic reports filed with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act").


Overview


We were incorporated in Delaware on May 11, 2011.  During the second quarter of our fiscal 2016 we decided to terminate our Share Purchase Agreement dated for reference April 6, 2015, to acquire all issued and outstanding shares of Boomchat Inc. and as such started evaluating other alternative business opportunities within mining industry. In August 2016 we engaged Gold Exploration Management Inc. a private Nevada corporation (“GEM”) controlled by David A. Bending, M.Sc., P. Geo., providing mineral exploration project management services, to assist us with evaluation of several potential projects in Clayton Valley known for its potential to host lithium deposits.


On October 4, 2016, we entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with GEM to acquire a title to lithium mineral claims situated in the states of Nevada and California. As a result of our entry into the Agreement, we have ceased to be both a shell company and an issuer described in paragraph (i)(1)(i) of Rule 144 of the Securities Act.


Our business plan is to assemble a portfolio of mineral properties and to engage in the exploration and development of these properties.

Revenues


We did not generate any revenue during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. Due to the exploration stage of our operations, we do not expect to have significant operating revenue in the foreseeable future.


Operating Expenses


During the three months ended March 31, 2017, our expenses increased by $14,573 or 72.4% from $20,141 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, to $34,714 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase in our operating expenses was mainly associated with the acquisition of the mineral properties and change in our business operations, as well as with 15-day temporary halt trade order initiated by Alberta Securities Commission (the “ASC”) as a result of unauthorized promotional activities related to our stock. As such, our professional fees increased by $6,023, or 36.1%, from $16,665 we incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2016, to $22,688 we incurred during the three-month period ended March 31, 2017. Our general and administrative expenses increased by $2,565, from $42 we incurred during the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, to $2,607 we incurred during the three-month period ended March 31, 2017; and our filing fees increased by $5,985, or 174.3%, from $3,434 we incurred during the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, to $9,419 we incurred during the three-month period ended March 31, 2017.


Net Loss


Our net loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, increased by $18,680 from $15,311 we incurred during the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, to $33,991 we incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase was mainly associated with overall increase in our operating expenses as discussed above, which was augmented by the decrease in foreign currency transaction gains.


We anticipate incurring ongoing operating losses and cannot predict when, if at all, we may expect these losses to plateau or narrow.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we used $59,339 in our day-to-day operating activities. We used $33,967 to cover our cash operating costs and $4,455 to increase our prepaid expenses. These uses of cash were further increased by $9,775 decrease in our accounts payable and by $11,142 decrease in accrued liabilities.  During the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, we borrowed $50,278 from an unelated parties in exchange for unsecured promissory notes, which are due on demand and bear interest at 5% per annum compounded monthly. During the same period we recorded $9,000 owed to our President and a director for services he performed during the first quarter of our Fiscal 2017.


During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we used $9,036 in our day-to-day operating activities. We used $15,110 to cover our cash operating costs, which was offset by an increase in our accounts payable of $3,668 and by an increase in our accrued liabilities of $2,406. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, we recorded $9,000 owed to our President and a director for services he performed during the first quarter of our Fiscal 2016.


We do not have sufficient funds to maintain our operations and support our exploration initiatives for the next twelve months, as such, we continue with our ongoing efforts to raise additional capital by conducting additional issuances of our equity and debt securities for cash.  The sale of additional equity securities will result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness will result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financial covenants that could restrict our operations or modify our plans to grow the business. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any failure by us to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us, or at all, will limit our ability to expand our business operations and could harm our overall business prospects.  We cannot assure you that any financing can be obtained or, if obtained, that it will be on reasonable terms.  As such, our management has expressed doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern because we have limited operations and have not fully commenced planned principal operations.


There are no known trends, events or uncertainties that have had or that are reasonably expected to have a material impact on our revenues from continuing operations.


We have not paid for expenses on behalf of our directors.  Additionally, we believe that this fact shall not materially change.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.


Going Concern Consideration


Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills and meet our other financial obligations. This is because we have not generated any revenues and no revenues are anticipated in the near future. Accordingly, we must raise capital from sources other than the actual sale of the product. We must raise capital to implement our project and stay in business.


Unproved Mineral Properties


On October 4, 2016, we entered into an asset purchase agreement with Gold Exploration Management Inc. (“GEM”).  Pursuant to the Agreement, GEM agreed to sell to us its title to 220 twenty-acre Crystal Basin Claims, 203 twenty-acre claim units entitled the Scotty’s Southeast Claims, 400 twenty-acre Cholla Claims, and 200 twenty-acre North Limb Claims (collectively the “Claims” or “Portfolio”). As consideration for the sale of the Claims, we issued thirty million (30,000,000) restricted shares of our common stock to GEM. Furthermore, we agreed to appoint David A. Bending to the Board of Directors.


On December 20, 2016, we amended the Agreement to reflect the change in the Portfolio we negotiated with GEM. Pursuant to the Agreement, as amended, the number of claims had changed as follows: the Crystal Basin Claims increased to 245 claims from the original 220 claims, the Scotty’s Southeast Claims increased form the original 203 claims to 312 claims, the Cholla Claims increased from the original 400 claims to 424 claims , and the North Limb Claims were decreased from the original 200 claims to 160 claims. North Limb claims were also renamed as North Lobe claims. In addition we added 224 twenty-acre generative claims that are located in the area of our interest, however, which have not been assigned to any specific group of claims.



10



As of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our Claims consist of 306 fully registered and renewed claim units totaling 6,120 acres and 1,059 claim units totaling 20,540 acres that have been located, however, for which required fees have not been paid. To finalize the registration of the located units we will be required to pay the filing fees within 90 days from the date they were located or re-located.


As part of our Agreement, as amended, we agreed to assume all financial liabilities of the Claims including registration fees and taxes payable to federal, state, and county government agencies.


The mineral titles are subject to payment of annual maintenance fees as of August 31, 2017, and the Company is fully prepared to meet these requirements as warranted by the results of the exploration work.  No minimum field or assessment expenditures are required by either the US Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) or the Agreement.  Exploration work is planned purely on the basis of the financial capacity and objectives of the Company, save and except the annual maintenance fees but Horizon plans an efficient and focused effort to rank and advance the targets to the discovery stage or decisions to negotiate farm out transactions or termination.


Crystal Basin Claims


The Crystal Basin Claims consist of 245 twenty-acre unpatented mining claims located in Southern Nye County. 154 of the 245 original claims have been filed and renewed with the BLM and will expire on September 1, 2017, if we do not renew the claims. The Crystal Basin Claims are held in irrevocable trust by GEM based on the terms of the Agreement, as amended, with 91 claims pending filing. They are 100% controlled by Horizon without underlying obligations or encumbrances save and except a 2% Gross Production Royalty to GEM.


The Crystal Basin lies in southern Nye County at the SE corner of the Amargosa Valley in a structurally defined secondary closed basin between 2 and 10 km (1.24 to 6.21 miles) SW of Nevada highway 95, 70 km (43.50 miles) northeast of the City of Las Vegas and 25 km (15.53 miles) northwest of the unincorporated community of Pahrump, Nevada.  The claims are traversed by roads developed for the adjoining complex of clay mining operations, power lines and a history of surface disturbance and prospecting.  The clay deposits overlie the basinal sediments of interest and the surface is dominated by very young felsic ash deposits which have been altered to the commercially significant saponite, montmorillonite and zeolite deposits that have generated a local mining culture and infrastructure. The village of Crystal offers low cost lodging within 3.21 km (2 miles) of the subject property in this area. The elevation of the area is 609.6 to 640 meters (2000 to 2100 feet) above mean sea level, and the climate is typical of the Amargosa/ Mojave Desert with hot summers and cool dry winters. Annual rainfall is about 5 cm (1.97 inches ) per year.


No exploration has been carried out by the Company on the Crystal Basin Claims to date and the Company has no immediate exploration plans.


Scotty’s Southeast Claims


The Scotty’s Southeast Claims consisted of 312 twenty-acre unpatented mining claims located in Central Nye County. The only retained interest the Company has in these claims are referred to as the SFE Property. The Scotty’s Southeast Claims are held in irrevocable trust by GEM based on the terms of the Agreement and are 100% controlled by Horizon without underlying obligations or encumbrances save and except a 2% Gross Production Royalty to GEM.


The Scotty’s Southeast Claims were located September 14 to 18, 2016, in south Central Nye County 24 KM (15 miles) south of Scotty’s Junction Airport, two to four miles southwest of US Highway 95.  The claims lie in south central Nye County, 16 to 32 km (10 to 20 miles) north of the mining community of Beatty, Nevada, 129 km (80 miles) south of Goldfield, 5 to 13 km (3 to 8 miles) west of Nevada Highway 95, and 249 km (155 miles) north of Las Vegas.  The elevation of the area is 609.6 to 640 meters (2000 to 2100 feet) above mean sea level, and the climate is typical of the Amargosa/ Mojave Desert with hot summers and cool dry winters.  Annual rainfall is about 5 cm (1.97 inches) per year.


The location and climate of these Claim areas permit exploration work at all times of the year, subject to very rare periods in which transient rainfall renders the salina or mudflat surface soft but still accessible to ATV and four wheel drive conventional vehicles.



11



With the exception of SFE Property, no exploration has been carried out by the Company on the Scotty’s Southeast Claims to date and the Company has no immediate exploration plans.


Cholla Claims


The Cholla Claims consist of 424 unpatented twenty-acre claims located in eastern San Bernardino County between Barstow and Needles, California, which were located in September and October and relocated in the period December 2 to December 5 and further relocated on March 20, 2017. As of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q Cholla Claims are yet to be filed with the BLM or San Bernardino County. We have until June 18, 2017, to file our Cholla Claims with San Bernardino County, and until June 16, 2017, to file the Cholla Claims with BLM at which time filings fees will be required to be paid. The funds to file these claims have not been available during this phase of work but the documentation is ready to be filed.


The Cholla Claims are held in irrevocable trust by GEM based on the terms of the Agreement and are 100% controlled by Horizon without underlying obligations or encumbrances save and except a 2% Gross Production Royalty to GEM.


The Cholla Claims consist of 53 association placer claim blocks, representing the equivalent of 424 claim units totaling 7,840 acres, in San Bernardino County, 3.2 to 9.7 km (two to six miles) south of the historic route 66, approximately midway between the communities of Barstow and Needles in the Mojave Desert in California. They are located in four discrete parcels called the Northwest, West, East and Turtle trend Blocks. Although the geological data available suggest that the prospective environment is far more extensive than the current land position most of the area selected for consolidation in early 2016 was alienated from mineral development by the new Mojave Trails National Monument. The claims which were relocated and retained for evaluation after systematic study of the area lie in the Bristol Basin east and northeast of the Bristol Lake Salt Flats.


No exploration has been carried out by the Company on the Cholla Claims to date and the Company has no immediate exploration plans.


North Lobe Claims


The North Lobe Claims originally called North Limb Claims consist of 160 unpatented twenty-acre claims located in northeastern Nevada in Elko County along the border with Utah, approximately 16 to 24 km (10 to 15 miles) north of Wendover, Nevada. The original package of 200 claims was reduced to 160 claim units, and lies 8 to 19 km (5 to 12 miles) north of U.S. Interstate Highway 80 and is accessible along unpaved roads and four-wheel-drive trails.  As of the date of this filing we have yet to file  these claims with Elko County and the BLM. In order to keep our interest in these claims we have to file them with both Elko County and BLM by mid June 2017.


The North Lobe Claims are held in irrevocable trust by GEM based on the terms of the Agreement and are 100% controlled by Horizon without underlying obligations or encumbrances save and except a 2% Gross Production Royalty to GEM.


The North Lobe Claims cover the eastern portion of a salt flat which is part of the Great Salt Lake north of Bonneville Salt Flats, an area in which drillhole data released by a joint publication of the USGS and the Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology documented strongly anomalous lithium concentrations in brines.


The North Lobe Claims are similar in climate and topography to the other properties but lie at an elevation of 1,250 meters (4,100 feet) above mean sea level. Mean annual rainfall is 4.5 cm (1.77 inches) and mean daily temperatures range from 46.1°C (115°F ) during July to -15°C ( 5°F) during December and January.  Access to the area is generally good via Interstate Highway 80 which traverses the Great Salt Lake to the local population center of Wendover, at the frontier between Utah (Toole County) and Nevada (Elko County). Access to the salt and mud flats which cover the target areas is generally very good via local roads and trails, with the exception that after periods of rain or snowmelt the surface can become soft and surface travel uncertain.  This is a factor primarily between February and May of each year.


No exploration has been carried out by the Company on the North Lobe Claims to date and the Company has no immediate exploration plans.

Generative Claims


In addition to the above Claims, during month of December 2016 we have located an additional 28 association placer claim blocks consisting of 224 claim units totalling 4,480 acres. These generative claims are located in Toole County, Utah and are in close proximity to our North Lobe Claims within the Great Salt Lake area. As of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, these claims have not been assigned to any specific group of claims.


As of the date of this filing we have yet to file these claims with Toole County and the BLM. In order to keep our interest in these claims we have to file them with both Toole County and BLM by mid June 2017.


The above generative claims are held in irrevocable trust by GEM based on the terms of the Agreement and are 100% controlled by Horizon without underlying obligations or encumbrances save and except a 2% Gross Production Royalty to GEM.


SFE Property


We are currently focusing our resources on the exploration of a section of the Scotty’s Southeast Claims, described above, (the “SFE Property”). The SFE Property is located in southern Nevada, approximately 29 kms (18 miles) northwest of Beatty, Nevada. The Property centroid is UTM 501,449mE, 4,105,700mN (UTM WGS84, zone 11N) or Longitude 116.984° by Latitude 37.09761°. The claim block comprising the SFE  Property lies within portions of the northwest quadrant of the Springdale SW, and the northeast quadrant of Bonnie Claire SE 7.5’ (1:24,000 scale) US Geological Survey topographic base maps. The SFE Property is located approximately 11 kms (7 miles) north of the northern boundary of Death Valley National Monument.


The mineral claims comprising the SFE Property include 21 association placer claims accruing 2,229 acres covering portions of sections 36, T9S, R44E; section 31, T9S, R45E; sections 1, 12, T10S, R44E; and sections 5, 6, 7, 8, T10S, R45E of the Mount Diablo Base and Meridian.


As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, of the 21 association placer claims, 16 claims have been located in the field and registered with full fees paid to Nye County and the BLM and renewed for the 2017 assessment year as valid, adjudicated, and active claims. The claims cover either 80 acres (4 - 20 acre units) or 160 acres (8 - 20 acre units). An additional five association placer claims have been located in the field with fees paid to Nye County. The required BLM fees have not yet been paid for these five claims, as such,  the claims cannot be considered to be fully valid.


In addition to the 21 located association placer claims described above, an additional 20 association placer claims (160 acres each, 8 - 20 acre units), were located in the field on December 18, 2016. These claims have not yet been filed with Nye County or BLM, and fees required for full validation have not yet been paid.


Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risks


Not applicable.


Item 4. Controls and Procedures


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on that evaluation, it was concluded that, due to limited segregation of duties, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in providing reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting


There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report, which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.


Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures


In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
