CORPORATE AND EXPLORATION HIGHLIGHTS

Highlights of the Company’s activities during the year ended February 28, 2017 and up to August 23, 2017:

  • On March 28, 2016, Pan Andean announced that it had received notice from Gorilla Minerals Corp., (“Gorilla”) that it would not provide an extension to the March 31, 2016 deadline to close the previously disclosed property agreement between Pan Andean and Gorilla. This is in spite of the fact that the extension was intended to accommodate the fact that Gorilla had called its shareholder’s meeting to approve the Transaction for April 12, 2016. Pan Andean subsequently notified Gorilla that the Company waived the Gorilla shareholder meeting requirement and Pan Andean remained ready and willing to proceed with the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement in a timely manner, given the delays occasioned by the actions of Gorilla, and expected Gorilla to proceed in good faith to take such steps as reasonably required to complete the transaction in a timely manner. Furthermore, Pan Andean requested Gorilla to confirm its willingness to confirm this on or before close of business on April 4, 2016, and failing that, Pan Andean reserved the right to proceed without further notice to pursue all remedies available to it.

  • On April 14th , 2016, and subsequently amended on April 20th , 2016, Pan Andean had signed a Letter of Intent with the shareholders of Circum Pacific Holdings Ltd., a private Canadian company to acquire all their issued and outstanding shares and consequently, 100% interest in the contiguous Chanape and Pucacorral mineral concessions, (or the “Properties”) situated in west-central Peru.

Highlights

  • Pan Andean to acquire 100% interest in the Chanape and Pucacorral Properties, comprising a number of contiguous mineral concessions (5,785 hectares) within the historic Chanape and San Mateo exploration and mining district, 100 kilometres east of Lima, Peru.

  • The Properties overlay 3-separate porphyry-centred gold-silver epithermal systems in a prolific mining district that has been actively mined for silver, gold and copper since colonial times.

  • The Properties include the Veta Fulvia and the San Mateo silver-coppergold mines, and completely surrounds the recent high-grade Chanape porphyry / breccia hosted Cu-Au-Ag discovery (formerly owned by Inca Minerals Ltd. - ASX), which has been demonstrated to extend onto the Chanape property being acquired by Pan Andean. Inca has spent approximately $7 million in exploration on the Chanape discovery during the past 4 years.

  • Past Chanape drilling by Inca Minerals returned high-grade intercepts in near-surface epithermal breccias that includes 55 metres averaging 2.3% Cu, 0.6 g/t Au, 42.9 g/t Ag and 108 metres averaging 2.0 g/t Au, 41.0 g/t Ag from surface, including 42 metres averaging 3.3 g/t Au, 34.9 g/t Ag. Sufficient information has not been received to report true widths.

  • Historic and artisanal mines being acquired by Pan Andean will be evaluated for third party mining and processing at nearby facilities, such as Nyrstar’s Coricancha mine and milling complex, currently being evaluated by Great Panther Silver Ltd., 15 kilometres distant.

  • Proximal to the giant Toromocho Cu-Mo-Ag deposit, 30 kilometres to the north.

  • Augmentation of Pan Andean’s Board of Directors and the addition of a highly-experienced and proven Peru exploration and management group.

  • Private placement fundraising of a minimum of $750,000.

Transaction Summary

On April 27, 2016, Pan Andean closed the first tranche of its private placement previously announced on April 14, 2016. The Company raised $286,000 through the issuance of 5,720,000 units (“Units") priced at $0.05 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share at a price of $0.10 per share for up to two years expiring April 27, 2018. The Company paid finder’s fees of $18,400 and

PAN ANDEAN MINERALS LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS February 28, 2017

issued 368,000 finder warrants, each of which entitle the holder to purchase one Pan Andean common share at a price of $0.05 per share for up to one year expiring April 27, 2017.

As the Company has previously advised, of the gross proceeds of the private placement, approximately $200,000 was to be used to pay the costs associated with the closing of the Peruvian Transaction, and the remaining $550,000 will be applied to advance the Chanape and Pucacorral Properties (the “Peru Properties”).

On July 19, 2016, Pan Andean received TSX Venture Exchange approval to increase the previously announced $750,000 private placement (April 14, 2016) to $1,000,000.

The Company conducted due diligence studies and a site visit to the Chanape and Pucacorral Properties in early May, 2016. Mr. Jerry Blackwell, P.Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 and on behalf of Pan Andean, has prepared a technical report detailing the exploration history, geological potential and Pan Andean’s exploration plans for the Peru Properties. On July 29, this report was approved by the Exchange and will be posted on SEDAR and the Company’s website. (www.panandeanminerals.com) upon Closing of the Peru Transaction.

On August 2, 2016 the Company announced that it had completed agreements to acquire a 100% interest in the Chanape and Pucacorral properties located in Peru. The acquisition of this interest was effected partially by way of an agreement whereby the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding shares of a closely-held British Columbia company. Circum-Pacific Holdings Ltd., (‘Circum Pacific’), which holds interest in two private Peruvian subsidiaries, by issuing 20,000,000 shares of the Company, and by paying the sum of $40,000, to the vendors.

The Company also acquired all minority interests in the two Peruvian subsidiary companies, not already held by Circum Pacific, through the issuance of 10,000,000 shares of Pan Andean and the payment of $20,000 to a separate vendor.

One of the Peruvian subsidiaries acquired, Cima de Oro S.A.C. (‘Cima’), has an option agreement (the ‘Tres Agreement’) to purchase all the issued and outstanding shares of another private Peruvian company, SMRL Cerro de Oro Tres (‘Tres’), which in turn holds nine additional mineral concessions. Included in this acquisition is the Company’s assumption of Cima’s obligations pursuant to this option.

Of the 30,000,000 common shares issued by the Company, a total of 6,672,000 shares will be held in escrow and released concurrent with certain payments or other ownership milestones being met under the Tres Agreement.

The acquisition of Circum-Pacific was accounted for as an asset acquisition recorded at the fair value of the consideration paid.

On August 4, 2016 Pan Andean announced that it had received TSX Venture Exchange (or the “TSXV”) approval and closed its Peru Transaction, previously announced on April 14th and subsequently amended on April 20, 2016. Furthermore, the Company also announced that it had closed a second tranche of its $750,000 private placement, an underlying condition for the Peru Transaction that was increased to $1,000,000 on July 19, 2016.

Each Unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share at a price of $0.10 per share for up to two years expiring August 3, 2018.

New Board of Directors and Peruvian Management Group

Upon Closing of the Peruvian transaction, the board of directors of Pan Andean was modfied to include Mr. Brian P. Fowler, Mr. John Kowalchuk and two nominees of Circum, Dra. Jenny Egúsquiza and Mr. Gary W. Anderson.

These

Page | 5

PAN ANDEAN MINERALS LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS February 28, 2017

exploration results supported the premise that epithermal gold mineralisation at Chanape is related to a larger underlying porphyry system, which was proven by subsequent and deep drilling by Inca Minerals Ltd. (“Inca”) within their tenements in 2015. Inca spent >A$7 million and drilled over 11,500 metres at Chanape over the past 5 years, defining epithermal breccia and porphyry-style mineralization over a +1.3 kilometre vertical extent, that remains open at depth.

The Chanape and Pucacorral Properties, Peru

Pan Andean’s Peru Properties consist of the adjoining Chanape and Pucacorral mineral concessions and total 5,785 hectares. The Properties are situated central to the historical mining area in the San Mateo Mining District, which contains numerous narrow-vein, epithermal gold, copper, silver and base metal mines, including the Pacococha, Millotingo, Silveria, Germania, Veta Fulvia, Chanape and San Mateo mines. Several of these mines persisted as artisanal operations into the late 1990s. The concept (and discovery) for the existence of much larger poly-metallic epithermal breccia bodies related to a deeper, causative Cu-Au-Mo porphyry intrusion at Chanape, was the brainchild of Mr. Gary Anderson and Dr. Adam Szybinski, the 2007 management group of Vancouver-based High Ridge Resources Ltd., and new Peru management group for Pan Andean. This concept was supported by ASX-listed Inca Minerals Ltd. (Inca) through a subsequent drill program targeting the High Ridge IP anomalies.

Inca recently reported some outstanding drilling results at the Inca Property that supported the presence of a deep-seated porphyry-style Cu-Mo system (220 metres averaging 0.13% Cu and 120 ppm Mo) beneath a shallower zone of high-grade epithermal breccia hosted AuAg mineralisation (108 metres averaging 2.0 g/t gold and 41 g/t silver from surface). These breccia bodies were mapped by the High Ridge I.P. survey and have been demonstrated to occur and extend onto the surrounding Minera Chanape property. The Inca discovery has significantly enhanced the prospectivity of the San Mateo district, demonstrating the discovery potential for giant porphyry copper deposits and associated, higher level epithermal breccia and vein-style gold-silver-base metal deposits, similar to the nearby

Toromocho deposit. Additional details of the Peru Properties are provided in Pan Andean’s website at www.bcgoldcorp.com.

Inca spent >A$7 million and drilled over 11,500 metres at Chanape over the past 5 years. Inca dropped the Chanape option in April 2016, citing an inability to negotiate more favorable option terms with the vendor (a 2016 expenditure commitment of A$5.33M was due at year end). Pan Andean has excellent relations and on-going discussions with the Chanape property vendor to work together and jointly advance our Chanape projects.

On September 20h , 2016, Pan Andean announced that Phase I exploration had commenced at the Company’s 100% owned Pucacorral property, situated in the San Mateo mining district in east-central Peru. On November 15th, 2016, Pan Andean announced the completion of Phase I exploration and the discovery of a broad area of porphyry intrusive and copper porphyry-style mineralization at its Pucacorral Project in Central Peru.

Pan Andean’s 1.5-month, Phase I Pucacorral field program has greatly exceeded Company expectations, defining what appears to be a large, porphyry system without any drilling. Exploration work included detailed mapping of tabular or elongated (vein-like) breccia bodies and selective sampling of a number of old mine workings, existing ore piles and waste rock dumps (92 rock samples and 18 QA/QC samples).

The Pucacorral hydrothermal breccia veins display multiple phases of mineralization accompanied by faulting that have broken the earlier, probably more massive and/or banded quartz base metal veins. At least 8 types of breccia types have been identified among abandoned mineralized stockpiles at the Lourdes breccia vein. These breccias are mostly mineralized with argentiferous galena, sphalerite and to a lesser degree chalcopyrite and the best grab sample of a breccia from Lourdes yielded 131g/t Ag, 13.75% Zn, 7.4% of Pb, 0.48% Cu, and 0.445g/t Au.

Additional 3 varieties of breccia have been identified from grab samples taken from abandoned mineralized stockpiles at the Sairita breccia vein, where they are mostly mineralized with disseminations and clusters of chalcopyrite, with lesser galena and sphalerite. The best grab sample at Sairita returned 93g/t Ag, 2.27% Zn, 1.84% of Pb, 3.4% Cu, and 0.463g/t Au.

There are at least two stages of mineralization after the emplacement of the copper porphyry type mineralization at Pucacorral. The first is the formation of quartz Zn-Pb-CuAg veins along NE-SW faults and the second is the development of base metal quartz-calcite breccias along the earlier quartz veins. The early stage veins contain inclusions of sphalerite, chalcopyrite and argentiferous galena, and the second stage veins comprise base metal mineralization in a breccia of quartz and porphyry rock fragments.

Pan Andean’s Phase I exploration program was tremendously successful as results indicate the presence of a potentially large porphyry system at Pucacorral, with an area exposure measuring at least 1.5 kilometre x 1.5 kilometre, comprised of hydrothermally altered porphyry, breccias and wall rock. The porphyry discovery occurs within 30 metres of the entrance to the lower two levels of the Lourdes vein and approximately 70 metres into the lower adit on the Sairita vein, where it is open-ended.

PAN ANDEAN MINERALS LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS February 28, 2017

While it is possible that all discovered underground porphyry may represent apophyses and/or dykes, it is considered more plausible to represent a shallow-seated porphyry “shoulder”. At least two larger exposures of porphyry have been located on the surface, one of which is co-hosting the Lourdes vein and has dimensions of approximately 250 metres x 120 metres. Another cluster of porphyry exposures is located about 300 metres east and 100 metres above the Sairita vein, with approximate dimensions of 300 metres x 120 metres. If all exposures are related to a single intrusion, then the porphyry could have a relative height above that of the nearby Pucacorral Valley floor.

On January 26, 2017, the “Company” announced that it has received and filed a technical report on its Pucacorral Project. The Report has been prepared pursuant to the Canadian Securities Administrators’ National Instrument 43-101 and was authored by independent Qualified Person, Mr. Victor Jaramillo, P. Geo. of Discover Geological Consultants Inc.

A Phase II exploration program has been highly recommended by the author of the Technical Report comprising of a 3D IP and 3D magnetic geophysical surveys, and further surface and underground geological mapping and sampling, both designed to enhance drill targeting for both the vein-type breccia occurrences and the possible underlying mineralized porphyry at Pucacorral.

Pan Andean will continue efforts to combine the Chanape properties by way of an option or joint venture agreement with Minera Altas Cumbres and advance both Chanape and Pucacorral, possibly by an agreement with a major partner, undertaking deliberate programs of compilation work, geological mapping, sampling, geophysical surveys, and diamond drilling. The Company will also be actively seeking and evaluating additional copper-gold-silver exploration opportunities in Peru.

Engineer Mine Property, Atlin, British Columbia

On January 16, 2007, the Company entered into an option agreement to acquire up to a 100% interest in the Engineer Mine property, situated 32 kilometres west of Atlin, British Columbia and 140 kilometres south of Whitehorse, Yukon (for details of the agreement terms see financial statements for the years ended February 28, 2013 and February 29, 2012) . Since that time, Pan Andean Ltd. has methodically invested in excess of $4.0 million in acquisition, development, bulk sampling, on-site milling and exploration for high-grade and bulk tonnage gold on the property. On September 25, 2012, Pan Andean announced it had vested its final 25% interest and acquired 100% ownership of the Engineer Mine property from Engineer Mining Corp. (“EMC”).

In September 2010, the Company increased its land position around the Engineer Mine by signing an option agreement with Guardsmen Resources Inc. (“Guardsmen”) to acquire a 100% interest in the east adjoining Gold Hill property. The Gold Hill property consists of 5 mineral claims (2,104 hectares), which include the Happy Sullivan high-grade gold prospect and a 2.2 kilometre-long segment of the highly prospective Shear Zone “B” structure.

On August 19, 2013, the Company further consolidated its land position around the Engineer Mine by signing an option agreement with Blind Creek Resources Ltd. (“Blind Creek”) to acquire a 100% interest in nine mineral claims bordering the west and south sides of the Engineer Mine and Gold Hill properties. In essence, Pan Andean has

Page | 15

PAN ANDEAN MINERALS LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS February 28, 2017

consolidated land holdings over the entire Engineer Mine Camp with 3,537 hectares of contiguous mineral claims and crown grants under its control.

On February 22nd, 2017, Pan Andean entered into an agreement with Blind Creek Resources Ltd. to sell its interest in the Engineer Mine property and related assets and the adjoining Gold Hill property. The purchase price is $350,000 of which approximately $332,500 is to be applied to paying certain outstanding obligations of the Company. As part of the Transaction, Blind Creek has also agreed to assume certain liabilities owed by the Company to Brian Fowler, the former CEO of the Company. In connection with the closing of the Transaction Mr. Fowler has resigned as a director of the Company. In addition, Blind Creek will grant to the Company a 1.0% net smelter return royalty (“Royalty”) on the Engineer Mine property, the Gold Hill property and the Blind Creek Property that borders the west and south sides of the Engineer Mine property and Gold Hill property. Blind Creek has rights under the Agreement to buy back all of the Royalty for $2,000,000.

- Minto/Carmacks Copper Gold Properties, Central Yukon

Pan Andean currently owns 100% of 8 out of the original 16 Minto/Carmacks Copper-Gold properties which are strategically situated in the Minto/Carmacks Copper-Gold Belt, a significant high-grade copper-gold district centered some 220 kilometres northwest of Whitehorse, Yukon. The properties are located proximal and adjacent to Capstone Mining Corp.’s Minto Mine, currently in production, and Copper North Mining Corp.’s Carmacks Copper Project, which is in the advanced mine permitting stage. All of the Company’s properties were staked by Shawn Ryan at the time when Sherwood Copper and Western Copper Corp. were both conducting feasibility studies over the Minto and Carmacks Copper projects, respectively, over areas with similar geological, geochemical and geophysical characteristics known to indicate near surface, high-grade copper-gold mineralization in the district.

Pan Andean has incurred approximately over $4.0 million in exploration expenditures since acquiring the properties. As a result, the Company has discovered seven significant copper zones and has advanced seven properties with “Minto-type” exploration targets to the drillready stage. All of Pan Andean’s Minto / Carmacks properties have NI43-101 technical reports and a number of them have been optioned to exploration partners over the years. The most significant discovery is located on the WS Property, immediately south of Copper North Mining Corp.’s Carmacks Copper Project, where Pan Andean’s drill hole WS08-09B intersected 2 near-surface copper sulphide horizons over 63.1 metres that averaged 0.17% Cu (containing 23.6 m averaging 0.34% Cu). This hole targeted a weak copper MMI anomaly coincident with a pronounced, 2 kilometre long linear Induced Polarization (“IP”) geophysical anomaly. This potential target warrants further drilling.

In early 2016, Pan Andean commissioned Ms. Jean Pautler, P.Geo. to prepare a NI 43-101 compilation report for the Williams South Property. The Company also applied for and received a 2016 Yukon Mineral Exploration Program (YMEP) exploration grant for up to $40,000. In October, 2016, Pan Andean commissioned Aurora Geosciences to conduct a 90 line-kilometers detailed ground magnetic survey on the Williams South Property, in attempt to define discrete copper oxide / sulphide structure extensions from Copper North’s Carmacks property. During the period of September 30th to October 6th 2016, Aurora Geosciences conducted a 88.9 line-kilometres of walking Mag were completed over two target areas (WS North and WS South). Both areas were initially surveyed with 50 m

PAN ANDEAN MINERALS LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS February 28, 2017

line spacing and then infilled to 25 m line spacing as time permitted. To aid with the interpretation, the IP data collected by Aurora Geosciences Ltd. in 2008 were used to examine the magnetics data in the context of the chargeability data. The MMI soils collected for BC Gold are used to complement the magnetics data during targeting.

The WS (Williams South) Property holds significant exploration and strategic value for Pan Andean, as it demonstrably overlays the south strike extension of Copper North’s Carmacks deposits. On October 12, 2016, Copper North announced results of a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for their adjacent Carmacks Copper Project. (See Copper North News Release dated October 12, 2016). Dr. Harlan Meade, President and CEO of Copper North states: “The work completed at Carmacks has significantly improved the project with addition of gold and silver recovery alongside copper recovery. Application of standard agitated tank leach technology reduced operating and environmental risk, compared to the previously proposed heap leach of copper, gold and silver. The application of agitated tank leach provides for rapid leaching of the copper-gold-silver mineralization and reduction of production cost of copper production. We are particularly pleased with the low cash cost of copper production to US$1.08/lb, net of gold and silver credits. The PEA indicates that, not only has good progress been made, but also with the potential expansion of mineral resources, a modest increase of metal prices and other improvements could result in significant benefits for project economics”. In the October news release, Copper North further states that “The Company intends to complete geotechnical study for dry stacked tailings storage, needed for completion of environmental report for resumption of permitting of the project. A modest metallurgical and process study will be undertaken to improve and upgrade the PEA. Additional drilling is planned to expand the Measured and Indicated mineral resources that were reported in the January 2016 mineral resource prepared in accordance with NI 43-101, and undertake mine planning of the new oxide mineral resources for inclusion into an expanded mine plan.”

Drill Targets Defined

Three drill targets have been defined by this survey. Target 1 is the intersection of several magnetic low lineations. An associated chargeability anomaly makes this target prospective. Additionally, Target 1 is on trend with zone 12 of Carmacks Copper. The high resolution magnetic survey identifies separate lineations all intersecting at the target location. If a proposed Geoprobe line were extended it would test this target.

Target 2 is the possible south-east extension of Zone 14 of the Carmacks Copper project. It is a magnetic low lineation that is on trend with Zone 14. Pan Andean’s drilling in 2008 of WS-08-09B intersected copper mineralization highlighting this area as prospective. The target is correlative with a near surface IP anomaly and a Geoprobe sampling line is proposed for this target.

Target 3 is a pronounced magnetic high that does not follow a topographic high. However, there is no correlative chargeability high or soil anomalies to make it a target of high priority.

Pan Andean’s exploration results demonstrate that the Williams South Property holds excellent potential for a stand-alone copper-gold deposit discovery, and also represents a potentially important “compliment resource” for any

commercial copper mining operation at Copper North’s Carmacks property. Pan Andean remains encouraged by the exploration results to date, and is currently actively seeking joint venture partners to advance its Minto / Carmacks Copper-Gold properties.

Voigtberg Property, British Columbia

On April 22, 2014, the Company signed a letter agreement with joint venture partner Kaminak Gold Corp. (“Kaminak”) to obtain 100% interest in the Voigtberg porphyry coppergold property, situated in the heart of the prolific Golden Triangle district in north western British Columbia, by acquiring Kaminak’s 50% interest in the property.

The Company issued Kaminak one million units, with $50,000 fair value being assigned to the shares and $39,670 fair value being assigned to the warrants, of the Company’s securities in exchange for Kaminak’s 50% interest in the Voigtberg property. Each “unit” consists of one common share and one share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles Kaminak to acquire one additional common share at a price of $0.10 for up to three years. All securities are subject to a four month hold period after the date of issuance.

The Company also agreed to facilitate $1.2 million in exploration expenditures on the Voigtberg property over a three-year period. If the Company fails to achieve this, Kaminak will have a one-time opportunity to acquire the Company’s entire interest in the property for $50,000.

In November 2015, claims comprising the Voigtberg property lapsed and Pan Andean was successful in re-staking 58 of the original 70 mineral claims and rectifying the previous option agreement. On July 19th, 2016 Kaminak was acquired by GoldCorp. and on August 4, 2016, Pan Andean announced that it had acquired the remaining 12 Voigtberg claims from prospector Mr. Bernie Kreft, for a cash payment of $20,000 and 400,000 Pan Andean common shares. A new Voigtberg agreement incorporating the new claim package was signed with GoldCorp., inclusive of the previous Kaminak option and buyout terms. On December 8, GoldCorp notified Pan Andean that it fully intended to exercise its $50,000 buyback option of the Voigtberg on or before the April 22, 2017 deadline, at Pan Andean’s convenience. The Company expects to conclude the Voigtberg property sale before the April 22, 2017 deadline.

On February 21, 2017, Kaminak Gold Corporation and the Company amended Joint Venture Interest Purchase Agreement dated April 17, 2017, as amended September 7, 2016. Both have agreed to amend the Purchase Agreement by deleting Section 6.1 of the Purchase Agreement in its entirety and rep1acing it with the following language:"6.1 On or before the end of the Earn-In Period, Kaminak shall purchase from BGC the BGC Joint Venture lnterest by providing notice to the Company (the "Buy-Out Notice") to that effect and by delivering $34,282 payable in cash." In all other respects the Purchase Agreement continues in full force and effect.

On March 8, 2017, pursuant to an agreement dated September 7, 2016, the Company sold its entire interest in the property to Kaminak Gold Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gold Corp Inc., for consideration of $34,282 in cash (received subsequent to year-end).

OUTLOOK

The Company will need additional funding for its corporate and overhead expenses in near future through either equity or debt financing. Many factors influence the Company’s ability to raise funds, including the health of the capital market and the Company’s track record. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to secure additional financings in the future at terms that are favorable. Pan Andean will continue its policy of minimizing general and administration and exploration expenditures to conserve cash and protect assets.

The Company’s financial status is not as robust as the previous quarter when an oversubscribed $1,000,000 private placement was closed. Proceeds of this placement were used this Quarter to address Company debt, provide for Peru transaction payments to the property vendors, to provide for the services of 3 financial consulting firms and the attendance of 2 mining investment conferences in Munich and Switzerland, minimal assessment work and maintenance required to keep the Canadian properties in good stead, provide for option payments for certain Peru properties, fund a Phase I exploration program at the Pucacorral property and for general working capital. The expectation is that financing for a Phase II geophysical program at Pucacorral and additional working capital will be provided through closing the $500,000 private placement announced by the Company on December 16th, 2016.

Pan Andean’s Peru exploration strategy is to advance the 100% owned and adjacent Chanape and Pucacorral properties to the option or joint venture stage with well-funded exploration partners. At Pan Andean’s Chanape property, which overlays mineralized extensions of the central and smaller, similarly named property previously owned by Inca Minerals Ltd. (ICG-ASX), the Company’s strategy is to jointly work with the private owner to secure a well-funded exploration partner to combine these properties and advance our interests. The Company will also be actively seeking and evaluating additional copper-goldsilver exploration opportunities in Peru.

Phase I exploration at Pucacorral consists of geological mapping, prospecting and sampling, on both surface and underground in the San Mateo mine. This US$80,000 exploration program was supervised by Dr. Adam Szybinski, Pan Andean’s Vice President Exploration – South America. Pan Andean’s Phase I exploration program was tremendously successful as results confirm the presence of a potentially large porphyry system at Pucacorral, with an area exposure measuring at least 1.5 kilometre x 1.5 kilometre, comprised of hydrothermally altered porphyry, breccias and wall rock. The 1.5-month field program has greatly exceeded Company expectations, defining what appears to be a large, porphyry system without any drilling. Exploration work included detailed mapping of tabular or elongated (vein-like) breccia bodies and selective sampling of a number of old mine workings, existing ore piles and waste rock dumps. Phase II exploration at Pucacorral will entail a 3D IP and 3D magnetic geophysical surveys, and further surface and underground geological mapping and sampling, both designed to enhance drill targeting for both the vein-type breccia occurrences and the possible underlying mineralized porphyry at Pucacorral..

On the Canadian properties front, the Company has taken all measures to retain tenure of its significant land package through nominal work programs. The Company is pleased that its portfolio of quality exploration and development properties in Yukon and Peru continues to

Page | 19

PAN ANDEAN MINERALS LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS February 28, 2017

attract option interest from qualified partners. The Company is committed to advancing its properties through deliberate work programs and optioning them to qualified and wellfunded exploration partners.

The Board of Pan Andean is pleased with the market reaction for current exploration initiatives and remains committed to transitioning the Company into a Peru prospect generator of note and substance.

Brian P. Fowler, former President and Chief Executive Officer of Pan Andean, a member of the Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of British Columbia (“APEGBC”) and a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, was responsible for the preparation of, and verified, the technical information quoted in this MD&A on all but the Pucacorral project.

Victor Jaramillo, M.Sc.A., P.Geo, an advisor to Pan Andean, is a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, has read and approved the technical and scientific information on the Pucacorral project contained in this MD&A.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Pan Andean is in the exploration phase and its properties are in the early stages of exploration and none of the Company’s properties are in production. Exploration and evaluation expenses and administrative expenses relating to the operation of the Company’s business are being expensed as incurred. Consequently the Company’s net loss is not a meaningful indicator of its performance or potential.

The key performance driver for the Company is the acquisition and development of prospective mineral properties. By acquiring and exploring projects of superior technical merit, the Company increases its chances of finding and developing an economic deposit.

At this time, the Company is not anticipating profit from operations. Until such time as the Company is able to realize profits from the production and marketing of commodities from its mineral interest, the Company will report an annual deficit and will rely on its ability to obtain equity or debt financing to fund on-going operations.

Additional financing is required for exploration and administration costs. Due to the inherent nature of the junior mineral exploration industry, the Company will have a continuous need to secure additional funds through the issuance of equity or debt in order to support its corporate and exploration activities, as well as its share of obligations relating to mineral properties.

For the three-month period ended February 28, 2017

The net loss for the three-month period ended February 28, 2017 was $812,432, as compared to the net loss for the three-month period ended February 29, 2016 of $167,824. The comprehensive loss for the three-month period ended February 28, 2017 was $812,432 (February 29, 2016 - $180,399). Operating expenses for the three-month period ended February 28, 2017 totaled $230,791 (February 29, 2016 - $76,162) an increase of $154,629. Individual items contributing to the net loss and comprehensive loss for the three-month periods ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016 were as follows:

  • Exploration and evaluation expenses of $13,042 (February 29, 2016 - $35,042). Little exploration and evaluation activities were undertaken during the current three months due to cash constraints.

  • Investor relations were $41,830 (February 29, 3016: $Nil). The increase was a result of management’s decision to increase investor relations programs and consulting during the current year.

  • Professional fees of $32,642 (February 29, 2016: $3,463). The increase was a result of more corporate activities during the current period as compared to prior period.

  • Travel costs of $29,591 (February 29, 2016: $Nil). The costs were associated to the mining conferences attended and financing activities during the period.

  • Wages and consulting fees of $78,619 (February 29, 2016 - $6,639). The increase in wages and consulting fees is due to the expansion of the management team following the conclusion of the Peru transaction. In addition, consulting fees to the CEO were allocated to exploration and evaluation expenses in prior period.

During the three months ended February 28, 3017, the Company disposed of two mineral properties which resulted in a loss totaling $581,213. This represents 72% of the total net loss and comprehensive loss for the period.

For the year ended February 28, 2017

The net loss for the year ended February 28, 2017 was $1,504,558 compared to the net loss for the year ended February 29, 2016 of $410,684. The comprehensive loss for the current year was $1,504,558 (February 29, 2016 - $423,259). Operating expenses for the year ended February 28, 2017 totaled $919,242 (February 29, 2016 - $338,579) an increase of $464,791. Individual items contributing to the net loss and comprehensive loss for the year ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016 were as follows:

  • Corporate listing and filing fees of $42,337 (February 29, 2016 - $15,584). The increase is a result of various filings related to the Peruvian transaction and various financings, as well as transfer agent fees related to the AGM held during the period.

The increase in wages and consulting fees is due to the expansion of the management team following the conclusion of the Peru transaction. In addition, consulting fees to the CEO were allocated to exploration and evaluation expenses in prior year.

During the year ended February 28, 3017, the Company disposed of two mineral properties which resulted in a loss totaling $581,213. This represents 39% of the total net loss and comprehensive loss for the year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of February 28, 2017, the Company had $64,668 (February 29, 2016: $17,361) in cash, out of which $27,900 was restricted cash. This amount is insufficient to fund the Company’s ongoing operations beyond the next several months. The Company does not have any cash flow from operations due to the fact that it is an exploration stage company therefore financings have been the sole source of funds in the past few years.

At February 28, 2017, the Company had working capital deficiency of $221,419 (February 29, 2016: working capital deficiency of $551,821). In the opinion of management, should the Company wish to continue as a going concerns and continue its fieldwork on its exploration projects in 2017 and beyond, further financing will be required and the Company will likely have to go to the market to achieve this.

Given volatility in equity markets, global uncertainty in economic conditions, cost pressures and results of exploration activities, management constantly reviews expenditures and exploration programs and equity markets such that the Company has sufficient liquidity to support its growth strategy.

Liquidity Outlook

The Company’s cash position is highly dependent on the ability to raise cash through financings and the expenditures on its exploration programs. Capital expenditures are not expected to have any material impact on liquidity. As results of exploration programs are

Page | 23

PAN ANDEAN MINERALS LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS February 28, 2017

determined and other opportunities become available to the Company, management may complete an external financing as required.

At present, the Company’s operations do not generate cash inflows and its financial success is dependent on management’s ability to discover economically viable mineral deposits. The mineral exploration process can take many years and is subject to factors that are beyond the Company’s control. In order to finance the Company’s future exploration programs and to cover administrative and overhead expenses, the Company raises money through equity sales, from the exercise of convertible securities and from optioning its resource properties.

Many factors influence the Company’s ability to raise funds, including the health of the resource market, the climate for mineral exploration investment, the Company’s track record, and the experience and caliber of its management. Actual funding requirements may vary from those planned due to a number of factors, including the progress of exploration activities. Management believes it will be able to raise equity capital as required in the long term, but recognizes that there will be risks involved which may be beyond its control.

This outlook is based on the Company’s current financial position and is subject to change if opportunities become available based on current exploration program results and/or external opportunities.

Going Concern

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations. The Company continues to incur operating losses, has limited financial resources, no source of operating cash flow, and no assurances that sufficient funding, including adequate financing, will be available to conduct further exploration and development of its exploration and evaluation assets projects. These material uncertainties may cast a significant doubt on the validity of this assumption. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the financing necessary to continue operations. As at February 28, 2017, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $19,161,297 (February 29, 2016: $17,656,739), a net loss of $1,504,558 (February 29, 2016: $410,684) and comprehensive loss of $1,504,558 (February 29, 2016: $423,259) for the year ended February 28, 2017 and has a working capital deficiency of $ 221,419 (February 29, 2016: $551,821).

If the going concern assumption was not appropriate, then financial statement adjustments would be necessary in the carrying values of assets, liabilities, reported income and expenses and the statement of financial position classifications used. Such adjustments could be material.

Strategy and Risk Management

Further exploration activities are dependent on the Company obtaining financing to meet its planned exploration activities for 2016 and beyond. Management believes that it will be able to raise additional capital in order to meet both its planned exploration activities and

Page | 24

PAN ANDEAN MINERALS LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS February 28, 2017

its administrative expenditures. Although management has been successful in the past when raising additional financing, there can be no assurance they will be successful in the future.

EXPLORATION STAGE COMPANY RISKS

The Company is engaged in the business of acquiring, exploring and developing mineral properties with the expectation of locating economic deposits of minerals. All of the properties are without proven ore deposits and there is no assurance that the Company’s exploration programs will result in proven ore deposits, nor can there be any assurance that economic deposits can be commercially mined. As a consequence, any forward-looking information is subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties as follows, but not limited thereto:

  • Exploration and development of mining properties is highly speculative in nature and involves a high degree of risk.

  • Timing delays in exploration and development and delays in funding may result in delays and postponement of projects.

  • Many competitors are in the business, some of which have greater financial, technical and other resources than the Company.

Page | 25

PAN ANDEAN MINERALS LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS February 28, 2017

  • Mining involves many hazards and risks in the field such as unexpected rock formations, seismic activity, cave-ins, adverse weather conditions, unstable political conditions and many other conditions.

  • Lack of assurance that: the Company will be able to obtain all necessary permits and approvals to conduct its affairs or that future tax, environmental or other legislation will not cause additional expenses, delays or postponements.

  • Operations of the Company are subject to environmental regulation, a breach of which may result in imposition of enforcement actions. Environmental hazards may exist on current properties which are presently unknown to the Company and regulations and laws change over time.

  • World prices for metals can be unstable and unpredictable and may materially affect the Company’s operations, as well as economic conditions which may change the demand for minerals.

  • The securities markets worldwide can experience high price and volume volatility.

  • The Company is dependent on the services of several key individuals, the loss of which could significantly affect operations.

  • There is potential for officers and directors of the Company to have conflicts of interest with other entities.

  • Uncertainties as to the development and implementation of future technologies.

  • Changes in accounting policies and methods may affect how the financial condition of the Company is reported.

  • Breaches of contracts, such as property agreements, could result in significant loss.

Page | 27

PAN ANDEAN MINERALS LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS February 28, 2017

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NOT YET EFFECTIVE

The consolidated financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of application as the annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended February 28, 2017.

Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets (Amendments to IAS 36) amends IAS 36 Impairment of Assets to reduce the circumstances in which the recoverable amount of assets or cash-generating units is required to be disclosed, clarify the disclosures required, and to introduce an explicit requirement to disclose the discount rate used in determining impairment (or reversals) where recoverable amount (based on fair value less costs of disposal) is determined using a present value technique. The application of this standard did not have a significant impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

IFRS 7 was amended to require additional disclosures on transition from IAS 39 and IFRS 9, effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015. The application of this standard did not have a significant impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

Accounting standards anticipated to be effective January 1, 2018

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (2014)

This is a finalized version of IFRS 9 which contains accounting requirements for financial instruments, replacing IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. The standard contains requirements in the following areas:

  • Classification and measurement. Financial assets are classified by reference to the business model within which they are held and their contractual cash flow characteristics. The 2014 version of IFRS 9 introduces a 'fair value through other comprehensive income' category for certain debt instruments. Financial liabilities are classified in a similar manner to under IAS 39, however there are differences in the requirements applying to the measurement of an entity's own credit risk.

  • Impairment. The 2014 version of IFRS 9 introduces an 'expected credit loss' model for the measurement of the impairment of financial assets, so it is no longer necessary for a credit event to have occurred before a credit loss is recognized

  • Hedge accounting. Introduces a new hedge accounting model that is designed to be more closely aligned with how entities undertake risk management activities when hedging financial and non-financial risk exposures

  • De-recognition. The requirements for the de-recognition of financial assets and liabilities are carried forward from IAS 39.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair Value

Certain of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is

Page | 28

PAN ANDEAN MINERALS LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS February 28, 2017

significant to the fair value measurement. The Company does not have any non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. There are three levels of the fair value hierarchy that prioritize the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value, with Level 1 inputs having the highest priority. The levels and the valuation techniques used to value our financial assets and liabilities are described below:

Level 1 – Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets or Liabilities

Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Short-term investments and marketable securities are valued using quoted market prices in active markets. Accordingly, these items are included in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Level 2 – Significant Other Observable Inputs

Quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. The Company does not have any financial assets or liabilities included in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Level 3 – Significant Unobservable Inputs

Unobservable (supported by little or no market activity) prices. The Company does not have any financial assets or liabilities included in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as at February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016 are summarized in the following table:

Financial Risk Management

The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks including credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk and market price risk.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, shortterm investments and other receivables. Pan Andean deposits its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality major Canadian financial institutions as determined by ratings agencies. The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any allowances for losses, represents the maximum exposure to credit risk.

Page | 29

PAN ANDEAN MINERALS LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS February 28, 2017

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet commitments associated with financial instruments. The Company attempts to manage liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash and cash equivalent balances. Liquidity requirements are managed based on expected cash flows to ensure that there is sufficient capital in order to meet short-term obligations. As of February 29, 2017, the Company had a cash balance of $64,668 (February 29, 2016 - $17,361), out of which $27,900 is restricted cash, to settle current liabilities of $428,326 (February 29, 2016 - $584,669). Further information relating to liquidity risk is disclosed in Note 1 of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended February 28, 2017.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. Cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and reclamation bonds include deposits which are at variable interest rates. For the year ended February 28, 2017, a plus or minus 0.5% change in market interest rates would affect the Company’s interest earned on cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments by approximately $322.

Market Price Risks

The only significant market price risks to which the Company is exposed to is interest rate risk and price volatility on its marketable securities. The Company’s bank account earns interest at variable rates. The fair value of its portfolio is relatively unaffected by changes in short-term interest rates. The Company’s future interest income is exposed to changes in short-term rates.

MANAGEMENT OF CAPITAL

In the management of capital, the Company considers shareholders’ equity. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, based on the funds available to the Company, in order to support exploration and development of mineral properties. The Board of Directors has not established quantitative capital structure criteria management, but will review on a regular basis the capital structure of the Company to ensure its appropriateness to the stage of development of the business.

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are:

  • To maintain and safeguard its accumulated capital in order to provide an adequate return to shareholders by maintaining a sufficient level of funds, to support continued evaluation and maintenance at the Company’s existing properties, and to acquire, explore, and develop other precious and base metal deposits.

Page | 30

PAN ANDEAN MINERALS LTD. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS February 28, 2017

  • To invest cash on hand in highly liquid and highly rated financial instruments with high credit quality issuers, thereby minimizing the risk and loss of principal.

  • To obtain the necessary financing to complete exploration and development of its properties, if and when it is required.

The properties in which the Company currently holds an interest in are in the exploration stage and the Company is dependent on external financing to fund its activities. In order to carry out planned exploration and development and pay for administrative costs, the Company will spend its existing working capital and raise additional amounts as needed.

Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable.

In order to facilitate the management of capital and development of its mineral properties, the Company prepares annual expenditure budgets, which are updated as necessary and are reviewed and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. In addition, the Company may issue new equity, incur additional debt, option its mineral properties for cash and/or expenditure commitments from optionees, enter into joint venture arrangements, or dispose of certain assets. When applicable, the Company’s investment policy is to hold cash in interest bearing accounts at high credit quality financial institutions to maximize liquidity. In order to maximize ongoing development efforts, the Company does not pay dividends.

The Company expects to continue to raise funds, from time to time, to continue meeting its capital management objectives.

There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the year ended February 28, 2017 compared to the year ended February 29, 2016. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On June 23rd , 2017, Pan Andean announced that it is undertaking a non-brokered private placement of up to 45.33 million units at a price of $0.03 per unit for proceeds of up to $1,360,000. Each unit will consist of one common share of the Company and one share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the registered holder to acquire one additional share of the Company at a price of $0.06 for a period of two years. In the event that the Company’s shares trade at a closing price of $0.15 per share for a period of 10 consecutive days at any time after the closing of the Offering, the Company may at its discretion accelerate the expiry date of the warrants by providing notice to shareholders thereof and in such case the warrants will expire on the 30th day after the date on which such notice is given by the Company.

The Company has received a total of $206,850 in share subscriptions.
