Q2 2025 OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS
Mineral Properties
Canada
Copper Queen Project
The project consists of five different target areas: Breccias 1-2-3, Roof, Charlotte, Nogwon, and Breccia 4. These five areas show highly anomalous Cu, Ag, Mo, and Au values which will require follow up work in 2025 and future seasons. The Breccia 1-2-3 target is drill ready and a notice of work has been submitted to the BC Ministry. A 520km VTEM survey initially started in November 2024 was completed during the first week of May 2025. Results from this survey show promising conductivity and magnetic anomalies below Breccias 1-2-3 suggesting a connection with a concealed porphyry system. Additional conductivity anomalies were obtained east of the Roof target and between Roof and Breccias 1-2-3. While waiting for drilling permits, the Company initiated surface exploration work including rock and soil sampling at the Charlotte target, mapping and sampling at Roof, and prospection of additional parts of the property.
REGIONAL BRITISH COLUMBIA
Copper Prince Property
The 2024 soil grid results showed consistent Cu, Mo, Ag and other pathfinders anomalies located within and on the margins of a large magnetic feature. In June 2025, the Company decided to collect 356 new soil samples trying to close the anomalies that remained open towards the margins of the 2024 grid. Results from this new soil sampling were received in July and confirm highly anomalous values of Cu and
Page 3
SABLE RESOURCES LTD. Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the three and six month period ended June 30, 2025
Mo up to 155 ppm and 4.3 ppm, respectively. 21 rock samples were collected during the soil sampling campaign returning results of up to 991 ppm Mo and 516 ppm Cu.
As at the date of this MD&A, SJ Geophysics is starting the planned geophysical program at Copper Prince which consists of 100km of GroundMag and 24km of IP. Both surveys will assess the magnetic, chargeability, and resistivity response of the Cu-Mo geochemical anomalies.
Argentina
Don Julio Project
On January 17, 2025, the Company completed the drilling program at Don Julio with 2,355m in six drill holes, one at the Morro target, two at the Colorado target, and three more tested shallow geophysical anomalies along the main Chita Valley. Hole DJ-DH-24-23 drilled at the Morro target revealed the existence of a new porphyry centre located 2.5km of La Gringa centre. Holes DJ-DH-24-24 and DJ-DH-2527 intercepted anomalous Cu-Zn-Ag mineralization. On July 28, 2025, the Company announced that its partner South32 has decided to terminate the Earn-in agreement signed in 2021 related to the Don Julio project. The Company is maintaining conversations with different potential new partners to continue advancing the exploration of the many targets that comprise the Don Julio Project.
El Fierro Project
In mid April 2025, the Company completed the drilling campaign at the Pyros porphyry target with 1,411m in four drill holes. This was the first campaign funded by Moxico under the Letter Agreement. Three of the four holes drilled intercepted significant copper mineralization including zones of high-grade. On June 10, 2025, the Company released the results from the drilling program and notes that these results represent the best intercepts drilled by the Company at Pyros.

Cerro Negro Project
The Company engaged Quantec Geoscience to extend the Induced Polarization (“IP”) lines conducted in 2023 with 24km along four lines acquired in July 2025 and an additional 14km being acquired during the month of August 2025. The new line extensions have revealed multiple consistent chargeability and resistivity anomalies that will be followed by MMI soil sampling looking for coincident geochemical anomalies.
OUTLOOK
In Canada, the Company will finish the mapping and sampling activities at Copper Queen during the month of August 2025 as well as the IP and Mag surveys at Copper Prince. In Argentina, Quantec will finish the remaining 14km of IP lines at Cerro Negro and 387 MMI soil samples will be collected along the same IP lines. Sable and its partner Moxico are currently defining the budget for the next drilling campaign at the Pyros porphyry within El Fierro project. The Company continues to evaluate opportunities for acquisition of an advanced copper-gold asset in good jurisdictions within the Americas and advancing conversations with potential partners for the Don Julio project.

EXPLORATION PROPERTIES
CANADA
As of the date of this MD&A, the Company controls 21,038 hectares in three 100% owned properties in British Columbia including:
-
Copper Queen
-
Copper Prince
-
Core Mountain
Copper Queen Project
The Copper Queen Project is located 245km west of Williams Lake. Exploration work conducted by Anaconda American Brass (“Anaconda”) between 1968 and 1969 reported the existence of quartz feldspar porphyries and at least five mineralized diatreme breccias within a porphyry system of approximately 4.5km by 2km. The only rock results available come from work undertaken in 1982 at the Breccia 1 including several samples >0.5% Cu up to 0.75% Cu associated with chalcopyrite and bornite mineralization. There has not been any exploration activity on the property since 2011 and no actual mapping since the Anaconda times. Sable started fieldwork in July 2024 and extended its mineral tenure to 15,133 ha during the summer and fall 2024 and the project now includes five exploration targets: Breccias 1-2-3, Roof, Nogwon, Charlotte, and Breccia 4.
Breccias 1-2-3
The Breccias 1-2-3 target includes three of the six breccias originally described by Anaconda. Cu mineralization as chalcopyrite and local bornite is hosted in the cement of the magmatic-hydrothermal breccias along quartz, calcite, and chlorite. Sable’s sampling returned values up to 1.07% Cu, 27.7 g/t Au, and 214 g/t Ag.
Page 6
SABLE RESOURCES LTD. Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the three and six month period ended June 30, 2025
Roof
The Roof target exhibits copper mineralization hosted in foliated metavolcanic rocks 3.5km north of Breccias 1,2,3. Chalcopyrite and malachite are disseminated along the foliation planes and deposited along fractures. Outcropping mineralization is observed for approximately 420m with the possibility of extending to 610m. Of the 17 samples collected, 13 returned values higher than 0.1% Cu, reaching 2.67% Cu, 37.9 g/t Ag, and 0.19 g/t Au.
Nogwon
The Nogwon target is located approximately 14.5km east from Breccias 1,2,3. Limited outcrop exposed within a glacier cirque shows the presence of granite hosted intrusion breccias with Cu mineralization in their cement. Chalcopyrite is also observed in the granite within small cavities that resemble miarolitic cavities but are lined with the same cement minerals (quartz, calcite, chlorite, chalcopyrite). Of the 23 samples collected, nine returned values higher than 0.1% Cu with a maximum of 1.25% Cu, 20.8 g/t Ag, and 0.1 g/t Au. Mineralization is distributed over an area of 320m by 200m and is open in all directions since the cirque is heavily surrounded by moraine material.
Charlotte
The Charlotte target is located 11.5km north of Breccias 1,2,3 and 28km southwest of the village of Nimpo Lake. It is accessible by road from Highway 20 along the Charlotte Lake Forest Service Road. Colour anomalies illustrated in satellite images correspond to quartz veins with chalcopyrite and copper mineralization also observed in skarn alteration along the contact of Jurassic granite with fine grain hornfelsed sediments. A large zone with altered and oxidized boulders is located on the most eastern part of the target, a single sample collected from these boulders returned 0.27% Cu and 41 ppm Mo. Another sample 440m to the east returned 880 ppm Mo suggesting a possible porphyry environment. Anomalous Cu values are spread along 1.4 km in an east-west direction.
Breccia 4
Breccia 4 is one of the original breccias discovered by Anaconda in 1968 and is located on the eastern side of McClinchy Lake. Breccia 4 consists of granite clasts with sericite-pyrite cement. This breccia does not show Cu mineralization but local molybdenite with values up to 131 ppm Mo. Exploration around Breccia 4 showed the presence of three zones of Cu bearing veins located west, east, and southeast. Values in these veins reach 0.68% Cu and 473 ppm Mo. All the copper occurrences around Breccia 4 extend over an area of 3.7 km2 that is heavily covered and requires additional mapping and prospection.
Copper Prince Property
The Copper Prince Property is located 13km of Princeton in southern British Columbia. Significant deposits in the region include the Copper Mountain mine (25km SW – Hudbay Minerals), the past producer Brenda Mine (40km NE), the Elk gold mine (26km North), and Kodiak Copper’s MPD project contiguous to the west. The geology of the property consists exclusively of a large granitic batholith of Jurassic age, very close to its western contact with the Triassic Nicola Group. Four historical porphyry showings are reported within the property and abundant float of sericite altered granite were found near the chromium showing; the altered boulders contain D and B veinlets with abundant pyrite and local molybdenite. These boulders
Page 7
SABLE RESOURCES LTD. Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the three and six month period ended June 30, 2025
extend for several hundred metres to the south where also biotite altered boulders were found and local chalcopyrite and additional molybdenite were found in several boulders on the western margin of a 1.5km wide magnetic high. Based on those observations, the Company expanded the property to 3,980 ha and decided to complete a soil grid of 727 samples covering the entire mag anomaly to evaluate the geochemical zoning across this heavily covered area. Results of the soil sampling show large and consistent anomalies of Cu, Mo, and Ag, located within and around a large magnetic feature and rocks samples, especially from boulders show values up to 341 ppm Mo. In 2025, the Company expanded the soil grid with additional 356 samples; a geophysical program consisting of IP and Ground Magnetic surveys that will be finished in late August. The expanded geochemistry combined with the geophysical data will support the targeting for a potential 2026 drill campaign.
Core Mountain Property
The property was staked in May 2024 given its favourable geology and the proximity to several significant copper deposits including the past producer Huckleberry mine (Imperial Metals – 25km North), the Ootsa deposit (Surge Copper – 23km NNE) and the Berg deposit (Surge Copper – 39km NW). Vein and red-bed hosted copper mineralization has been historically reported in at least seven showings. No exploration work has been conducted on the property since 1986. The regional geology suggests the presence of multiple Cretaceous and Tertiary dykes intruding Jurassic volcanic rocks of the Hazelton Group. The Company conducted a one day review of the property in September 2024, collecting 13 rock samples which returned values up to 2.6% Cu, 14.3 g/t Ag, and 0.53 g/t Au.

ARGENTINA
The Company has four projects in Argentina:
-
Don Julio
-
Don Julio Regional (including Los Pumas)
-
El Fierro
-
Cerro Negro
Don Julio
Through its option agreement and staking, Sable controls more than 69,000 hectares at its Don Julio project, Don Julio Cluster, and other associated regional properties (“Don Julio Regional”), collectively “Don Julio” or the “Don Julio Projects”. Located in the pro-mining province of San Juan, the mineral claims are 62 km south of Barrick's Alturas gold deposit. The main targets within the Don Julio Cluster are described below.
Don Julio - La Gringa Target
La Gringa target has become the focus of exploration within Don Julio. During the 2022 and 2023 exploration seasons, the Company drilled 12 holes at La Gringa extending its footprint to 1.6km by 1.2km and defining several styles of mineralization such as Cu-Mo porphyry and high-grade Cu-Au in highsulfidation “mantos” and mineralized breccias with diatreme style. The Gringa porphyry centre is a 7.3 Ma system that has only been drilled to the depth of its “Moly halo”, a zone with biotite alteration in host rock with abundant B-type veinlets and Mo>Cu. During the 2024-2025 drilling campaign, only one hole was drilled near La Gringa (DJ-DH-25-27)testing an IP anomaly on the eastern side of the target. The hole intercepted 0.8m @ 0.15% Mo, 0.1% Cu, 0.11g/t Au from 54.5m and 0.55m @ 4.55% Cu, 0.86 g/t Au, 13.7 g/t Ag from 160.75m.
Page 9
SABLE RESOURCES LTD. Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the three and six month period ended June 30, 2025
Don Julio – Poposa/Morro Target
In the 2024-2025 field season, Sable consolidated the Poposa and Morro zones, combining historical data with new observations. In 2022, the Company drilled holes DJ-DH-22-01, 02, and 03, which did not reach the planned depth due to technical drilling issues. Hole DJ-DH-22-02 showed B veinlets with Mo mineralization. Prospecting work completed during the 2023-2024 field season found several magmatic hydrothermal breccias containing porphyry veinlets fragments east of the historical hole ATW-05 drilled through a Miocene diatreme, which also contains biotite altered fragments. In November 2024, the Company drilled hole DJ-DH-24-23 at Morro to a final depth of 643m. The hole showed a transition from advanced argillic and sericitic alteration to intense biotite alteration with B veinlets and abundant Mo mineralization. Hole 23 is located 2.5km south of La Gringa porphyry centre, clearly indicating the discovery of a new porphyry centre. Additional drilling will be required to vector towards a Cu rich mineralized zone. Significant intercepts from hole DJ-DH-24-23 include:
-
14.0m @ 0.45 g/t Au from 33.0m
-
74.0m @ 0.13 g/t Au from 79.7m
-
27.8m @ 0.14 g/t Au; 0.1% Cu; 82 ppm Mo
-
245.0m @ 114 ppm Mo from 397.2m
Don Julio – Colorado Target
During the 2023-2024 field season, a 21km IP survey was completed along the main Chita valley, located 3km east of La Gringa target significantly expanding the size of the known hydrothermal system at Don Julio. One of the main achievements of this geophysical program was the Colorado chargeability anomaly which identified that the IP anomaly seems to be connected to the Colorado breccia, a structurally controlled breccia with high grade Cu-Au containing advanced argillic alteration and high-sulfidation mineralization. The chargeability anomaly is covered by Quaternary gravels on the valley and represents a high-potential target at lower elevation. Drilled hole DJ-DH-24-24 intercepted significant Zn-Ag-Cu mineralization associated with the mentioned IP anomaly. Highlights from hole 24 include:
-
10.0m @ 5.0 g/t Ag and 0.19% Zn from 36.0m
-
2.0m @ 35.4 g/t Ag from 74.0m
-
2.0m @ 8.19 g/t Ag and 0.18% Cu from 260.5m
-
21.0m @ 3 g/t Ag and 0.21% Zn from 307.0m
-
9.5m @ 3.44 g/t Ag and 0.29% Zn from 382.5m
Don Julio - Tocota Target
Tocota is an outcropping porphyry centre located on the SE part of the Don Julio cluster. A diorite intrusive with B-type and Maricunga-style veinlets is outcropping and subcropping in an area of approximately 400m by 400m. Au-Cu mineralization reaches values up to 0.4 g/t and 0.4% respectively. The porphyry mineralization at Tocota coincides with a very strong and vertically continuous magnetic anomaly. A soil grid of 628 samples was completed in the 2023-2024 season covering the Tocota target showing a strong coincidence of Cu and Au with the mineralized area, and a large NW trending anomaly of As, Sb, Mo, Te, Bi located northwest of the mineralized area at higher elevation, which may suggest additional porphyry mineralization at depth. Road access to the Tocota target has been completed and the target is drill ready for future drilling campaigns.

SABLE RESOURCES LTD. Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the three and six month period ended June 30, 2025
Don Julio - Punta Cana Target
The Company discovered the Punta Cana porphyry in November 2021. The Punta Cana Au-Cu porphyry is located approximately 1.5km west of the southern margin of the known lithocap over an area of approximately 400m by 400m. Surface samples collected over the porphyry zone are as high as 3.2 g/t Au; and 0.53% Cu. During the 2022-2023 exploration season, the Company drilled one hole at the Punta Cana target (DJ-DH-23-16) with results included below.
DJ-DH-23-16
-
0.32 g/t AuEq (6.39 g/t Ag; 0.11 g/t Au; 0.086% Cu; 32 ppm Mo) over 156.0m from 281.0 to 437.0m Including
-
0.45 g/t AuEq (11.05 g/t Ag; 0.14 g/t Au; 0.11% Cu; 39 ppm Mo) over 55.0m from 330.0 to 385.0m Including
- 1.05 g/t AuEq (46.68 g/t Ag; 0.13 g/t Au; 0.15% Cu; 0.17% Pb; 0.14% Zn; 51 ppm Mo) over 12.0m from 330.0 to 342.0m
The Punta Cana porphyry remains a significant gold-copper anomaly with only three holes drilled. The target requires additional drilling in future seasons.
Don Julio - Fermin Target
The Fermin target is a Zn-Pb-Ag-Cu skarn that was discovered in 2020 and drill tested for the first time during the 2022-2023 exploration season with two holes (DJ-DH-23-20 and DJ-DH-23-21) intercepting the targeted calcareous unit. Hole DJ-DH-23-20 returned 2.45% ZnEq (1.6% Zn; 1.01% Pb; 2.73 g/t Ag) over 5.0m from 165.0 to 170.0m including 3.85% ZnEq (2.49% Zn; 1.7% Pb; 2.09 g/t Ag) over 1.0m from 165.0 to 166.0m and 5.33% ZnEq (3.64% Zn; 1.95% Pb; 7.9 g/t Ag) over 0.5m from 168.5 to 169.0m.
In addition to the Punta Cana, La Gringa, Poposa and Fermin targets, the Don Julio cluster includes several intermediate sulfidation vein systems such as San Gabriel, and Lodo, which are untested.
Don Julio Regional - Los Pumas Project
In January 2021, Sable announced geochemical sampling results from the Los Pumas Project located 21 km south of the Don Julio Cluster where the Company collected 260 rock samples that returned values of up to 103 g/t Au; 2,650 g/t Ag; and 2.9% Cu.
Exploration work in the 2021-2022 exploration season included 23km of road construction, 1.6km of trenching, mapping, prospection, and 294 rock samples. Trenching at the “Main zone” returned encouraging values including 35.2m @ 0.71 g/t AuEq (19.93 g/t Ag, 0.067 g/t Au, 0.29% Cu) in trench 9; 31.4m @ 0.3 g/t AuEq (5.7 g/t Ag, 0.015 g/t Au, 0.16% Cu) in trench 8; and 33.4m @ 0.35 g/t AuEq (15.45 g/t Ag, 0.032 g/t Au, 0.072%Cu, 86 ppm Mo) in trench 12. Los Pumas represents a very attractive target for Cu-Au-Ag mineralization and is drill ready with easy access.
In addition to the Los Pumas Project, the Company holds large unexplored areas within the regional block of Don Julio.

El Fierro Project
El Fierro Project is located 250 km northwest of San Juan city and 120 km north of Sable’s Don Julio Project. El Fierro is a historical small-scale mining district where silver, lead and zinc were intermittently mined from the late 1800s until the 1960’s decade. The area had not seen any modern exploration and had never been drilled before Sable’s first drill program conducted in 2021.
El Fierro is a large (approximately 10km by 10km) magmatic hydrothermal system located on the eastern margin of an interpreted Miocene caldera. Magmatism as currently understood is centered on the Pyros porphyry stock and the Antenna Hill diorite stock. Peripheral to these intrusive centres and distributed in four main zones there are several sub-epithermal polymetallic veins that were the initial focus of Sable’s exploration and yielded very significant intercepts of Ag, Au, Cu, Pb, Zn mineralization in multiple holes drilled in 2021. The discovery of the Pyros porphyry shifted Sable’s exploration focus to the discovery of a large Cu-Au-Mo porphyry deposit.
El Fierro - Pyros Target
The Pyros porphyry target was discovered by Sable during the 2021-2022 drilling campaign. Sable drilled 13 holes at Pyros in 2022, discovering a large multiphase Miocene stock hosted within Permian granitic rocks. Several of the holes intercepted significant intervals of Cu-Mo-Au mineralization. After extensive trenching and interpretation of geochemistry, and spectral data, the Company believes that higher-grade Cu-Au-Mo mineralization is present at deeper and lateral levels associated to “early halo” style mineralization, and later SCC alteration. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, a drill program of 1,411m in four holes was funded by Moxico and completed in late April intercepting significant copper mineralization in at least three holes. On June 10, 2025, the Company released very encouraging results from the mentioned three holes.

Cerro Negro Project
The Cerro Negro prospect highlights a small Miocene dacitic intrusion that is fully surrounded by Quaternary gravels. The outcropping intrusive is the centre of a large magnetic anomaly. In August 2023, two IP lines revealed a chargeability anomaly located on the SW of the Mag anomaly, close to Paleozoic metasediments. Small Cu occurrences have been identified in the sedimentary country rock with values up to 0.15 Cu and 64 ppm Mo. These anomalies are interpreted as distal geochemical leaking from a concealed mineralized system. The Company collected 272 MMI soil samples on the gravel cover obtaining significant anomalies of Cu, Au, Ag, Mo, and other pathfinders. The coincidence of geophysical and geochemical anomalies represents a good opportunity for discovering porphyry mineralization below post mineral gravels.
In June 2025, funded by its partner Moxico, the Company acquired 24km of IP lines that will be soon extended to 38km followed with at least 387 MMI soil samples. Sable is a first mover in exploration below gravels in San Juan; the Cerro Negro project has been never explored before Sable.
DISCUSSION OF OPERATIONS
For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
Net income for the three month period ended June 30, 2025 was $21,580,417 compared with a net loss $994,275 for the three month period ended June 30, 2024. Changes period over period are attributable to the one-time items recognized in the recovery of exploration expenditures of $19,581,981 and the gain on the sale of net smelter royalties of $3,800,000. The removal of these one-time items would have resulted in a net loss of $1,801,564 for the three month period ended June 30, 2025.
Comparing the periods without the one time items relating to the recovery of exploration expenditures and the gain on the sale of net smelter royalties, the variances between the two periods include:
-
Exploration expenditures were $1,371,994 for the three month period ended June 30, 2025 (June 30, 2024 - $590,297). The increase is due primarily to increased activity at the El Fierro, Copper Queen, and BC Regional projects.
-
Provision of $202,161 for value-added tax receivable for the three month period ended June 30, 2025 (June 30, 2024 - $89,126). The increase is due to increased expenditures in Argentina that were subject to value-added tax.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
Net income for the six month period ended June 30, 2025 was $19,501,581 compared with a net loss $2,123,141 for the six month period ended June 30, 2024. Changes period over period are attributable to the one-time items recognized in the recovery of exploration expenditures of $19,581,981 and the gain on the sale of royalties of $3,800,000. The removal of these one-time items would have resulted in a net loss of $3,880,400 for the six month period ended June 30, 2025.
Comparing the periods without the one time items relating to the recovery of exploration expenditures and the gain on the sale of royalties, the variances between the two periods include:

-
Exploration expenditures were $3,139,464 for the six month period ended June 30, 2025 (June 30, 2024 - $1,381,110). The increase is due primarily to increased activity at the El Fierro, Copper Queen, and BC Regional projects.
-
General and administrative expenditures were $645,089 for the six month period ended June 30, 2025 (June 30, 2024 - $797,097). The decrease is due to the timing of certain taxes (non-income) applicable to the company’s Argentina subsidiaries.
-
Provision of $460,060 for value-added tax receivable for the six month period ended June 30, 2025 (June 30, 2024 - $205,964). The increase is due to increased expenditures in Argentina that were subject to value-added tax.

SELECTED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Current assets at June 30, 2025 were $12,339,327 versus $9,623,913 at December 31, 2024. The increase is primarily the result of $4,102,662 of cash flows used in operating activities, offset by the receipt of $3,345,972 from South32 and Moxico under their respective agreements, as well as the receipt of $3,800,000 from the sale of net smelter royalties.
Non-current assets at June 30, 2025 were $2,571,762 versus $2,367,274 at December 31, 2024. The increase is primarily due to the $338,668 option payment made on the Don Julio project, and the $54,572 option payment made on the El Fierro project.
Current liabilities at June 30, 2025 were $438,123 versus $19,434,223 at December 31, 2024. The decrease is due to the recognition of the deferred exploration recovery, as a result of South32 providing the company notice of its intention to terminate the EIA.
Non-current liabilities at June 30, 2025 were $1,901,740 versus $nil at December 31, 2024. The increase is due to receipt of contributions from Moxico under the Letter Agreement.

Page 16
SABLE RESOURCES LTD. Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the three and six month period ended June 30, 2025
The net losses incurred are a result of ongoing exploration work at the Company’s projects in Argentina and Canada. Due to the geographical location of the Company’s mineral properties, the Company’s business activities generally fluctuate with the exploration seasons, through increased exploration expenditures during the summer months in Argentina and Canada. The Company incurred net income in second quarter of 2025 due to the recovery of exploration expenditures as a result of South32 giving notice to terminate the EIA, as well as the gain on the sale of net smelter royalties.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has no known mineral resources and is not in commercial production on any of its properties and accordingly, the Company does not generate cash from operations. The Company finances exploration activities by raising capital from equity markets, the sale of mineral properties and the sale of royalties from time to time. As at June 30, 2025, the Company had a cash and cash equivalents position of $11,802,808 (December 31, 2024 - $9,095,198).
The Company's capital management objectives are to raise the necessary funds for its exploration projects and to manage these funds to best optimize its exploration and mining programs in the interests of its shareholders and other stakeholders at an acceptable risk.
In the management of capital, the Company includes shareholders' equity and cash and cash equivalents in the definition of capital.
The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjusts it based on changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of its underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may raise additional equity funds and acquire new exploration properties as circumstances dictate. There is no assurance that future equity capital will be available to the Company in the amounts or at the times desired by the Company or on terms that are acceptable to it, if at all. See “Risk Factors” below.
Management believes that the Company’s cash resources are sufficient to meet its working capital and mineral exploration requirements for its next fiscal year, as these expenditures are considered discretionary by management.
Management regularly monitors economic conditions and estimates their impact on the Company’s operations and incorporates these estimates in both short-term operating and longer-term strategic decisions. Apart from these and the risk factors noted under the heading “Risk Factors”, management is not aware of any other trends, commitments, events, or uncertainties that would have a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, or results of operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES, JUDGEMENTS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The Company makes estimates and assumptions about the future that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated based on the historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. In the future, actual experience may differ from these estimates and assumptions.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions
Critical accounting estimates are estimates and assumptions made by management that may result in material adjustments to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
Share-based Payments
The Company applies the Black-Scholes pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options granted and warrants issued, which is expensed to the statement of net loss and comprehensive loss over each option award’s vesting period. Under this model, the Company must estimate the term, volatility, the forfeiture rate of options granted, and warrants issued. Changes in these input assumptions can significantly affect the fair value estimate.
Critical Accounting Judgments
Critical accounting judgments are accounting policies identified as being complex or involving subjective judgments or assessments.
Title to Mineral Property Interests
Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, these procedures do not guarantee the Company's title. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.
Impairment of Mineral Property
The Company reviews and evaluates mineral property interests for indications of impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount may not be recoverable or at least at the end of each reporting period. An impairment test is conducted if an indication of impairment is found to exist.
Recoverability of Value-Added Tax Receivables
The Company reviews and evaluates assumptions regarding the recoverability of VAT receivables in Argentina and Mexico at the end of each reporting period considering the relevant facts and circumstances, including past collectability and the general economic environment of the country to determine if a provision for the VAT receivable is required. As the amount receivable depends on performance by the government in Mexico and Argentina, including the Mexican properties moving into
Page 19
SABLE RESOURCES LTD. Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the three and six month period ended June 30, 2025
commercial production, the timing and amount of collection for the VAT receivables may be materially different from the amount recorded in the consolidated financial statements.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND OTHER INSTRUMENTS
The Company has not entered into any specialized financial agreements to minimize its investment risk, currency risk or commodity risk. As of the date hereof, the Company’s investment in resource properties has full exposure to commodity risk, both upside and downside. As commodity price moves so too does the underlying value of the Company’s gold projects. The Company monitors gold and silver prices to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.
An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of an asset, or its cash generating unit ("CGU"), exceeds its recoverable amount. A CGU is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. Impairment losses are recognized in profit and loss for the period. Impairment losses recognized in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to CGUs and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit on a pro-rata basis. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs.
An impairment loss is reversed if there is an indication that there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized. An impairment loss with respect to goodwill is never reversed.
FINANCIAL RISK FACTORS
The Company’s risk exposure and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below. There have been no material changes in the risks, objectives, policies and procedures from the previous period.
Credit risk
The Company's credit risk is primarily attributable to cash and cash equivalents. Management believes that the credit risk concentration with respect to the cash and cash equivalents is minimal.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not have sufficient cash resources to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company’s liquidity and operating results may be adversely affected if the Company’s access to capital markets is hindered, whether as a result of a downturn in stock market conditions generally or related to matters specific to the Company.
As at June 30, 2025, the Company had a cash and cash equivalents balance of $11,802,808 (December 31, 2024 - $9,095,198) to settle current liabilities (excluding deferred exploration recovery, a non-monetary liability) of $438,123 (December 31, 2024 - $734,511).
Page 20
SABLE RESOURCES LTD. Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the three and six month period ended June 30, 2025
Market risk
(a) Interest rate risk
The Company has significant cash balances. The Company’s current policy is to invest excess cash in highyield savings accounts or other highly liquid interest-bearing short-term investments. Management has determined interest rate risk to be low.
(b) Foreign currency risk
The Company’s reporting currency is the Canadian dollar. The functional currency of the Company is the Canadian dollar. The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on fluctuations related to cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities denominated in US dollars, Argentine Peso and the Mexican Peso.
Based on the foreign currency balances at June 30, 2025, a 10% change in foreign exchange rates between the Canadian dollar and these foreign currencies over the next year would affect the net comprehensive loss by approximately $38,928. This analysis only addresses the impact on financial instruments with respect to currency movement and excludes other economic or geopolitical implications of such currency fluctuation. In practice, actual results will likely differ from this analysis and the difference may be material.
(c) Commodities price risk
The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to commodity prices. Commodity price risk is defined as the potential adverse impact on earnings and economic value due to commodity price movements and volatilities. The Company closely monitors commodity prices, particularly as they relate to gold and silver to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.
Other price risk
From time to time, as part of the funding process to its subsidiary, the Company holds equity instruments for periods of two to three business days with the intention of trading. During these holding periods, the Company is exposed to changes in share prices which result in gains or losses being recognized in profit and loss. The Company does not hold these equity instruments at period end and therefore had no exposure to price risk as of June 30, 2025.
RISKS FACTORS
The operations of the Company are speculative due to the high-risk nature of its business, which includes the acquisition, exploration, and development of mineral resource properties through its phase exploration methodology in the countries of Argentina and Canada. There are a number of factors that could negatively affect the Company’s business and the value of its common shares, and these risk factors could materially affect the Company’s future operations and financial position and could cause actual events to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements relating to the Company. There have been no material changes in the risks and uncertainties affecting the Company that were discussed in the Company’s annual MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2024, as filed on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca on April 22, 2025.

Disclosure controls and procedures (“DC&P”) are intended to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by securities regulations and that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to management. Internal controls over financial reporting (“ICFR”) are intended to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.
TSXV-listed companies are not required to provide representations in the annual filings relating to the establishment and maintenance of DC&P and ICFR, as defined in National Instrument 52-109. In particular, the CEO and CFO certifying officers do not make any representations relating to the establishment and maintenance of (a) controls and other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in its annual filings, interim filings or other reports filed or submitted under securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in securities legislation, and (b) a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with the issuer’s GAAP. The issuer’s certifying officers are responsible for ensuring that processes are in place to provide them with sufficient knowledge to support the representations they are making in their certificates regarding the absence of misrepresentations and fair disclosure of financial information. Investors should be aware that inherent limitations on the ability of certifying officers of a venture issuer to design and implement on a cost-effective basis DC&P and ICFR as defined in Multinational Instrument 52-109 may result in additional risks to the quality, reliability, transparency and timeliness of interim and annual filings and other reports provided under securities legislation.
