RUBICON MINERALS CORPORATION

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

June 30, 2015 and 2014

(in Canadian Dollars, in thousands except for share data)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Rubicon Minerals Corporation (the “Company”) has been primarily involved in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral property interests in Canada and the United States. The Company is incorporated and domiciled in British Columbia, Canada. The address of its registered office is Suite 2800 - 666 Burrard Street Vancouver, BC V6C 2Z7. The Company maintains its head office at 44 Victoria Street, Suite 400, Toronto, Ontario M5C 1Y2.

The ability of the Company to recover the costs it has incurred to date on its properties, including the Phoenix Gold Project, is dependent upon profitable extraction of gold or other minerals from its properties, the ability of the Company to resolve any environmental, regulatory, or other constraints which may hinder the successful operation and expansion of its properties, obtaining financing to complete exploration and development, and upon future profitable production or proceeds from disposition of mineral properties.

Although the Company is unaware of any defects in its title to its mineral properties, no guarantee can be made that none exist.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

a) Statement of compliance

The Company prepares its annual financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), and with interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Committee which the Canadian Accounting Standards Board has approved for incorporation into Part 1 of the CPA Canada Handbook - Accounting. These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” (“IAS 34”). Accordingly, these interim consolidated financial statements follow the same accounting principles and methods of application as the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 except as noted below and may condense or omit certain disclosures that otherwise would be present in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. These financial statements should therefore be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2014 financial statements. These financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Audit Committee on behalf of the Board of Directors on August 10, 2015.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial statements to conform with the current period presentation, and increases the understanding of the Company’s operations and results in classifications that are more comparable to its peers.

b) Significant accounting judgments and sources of estimation uncertainty

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and the valuation of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the period reported. Management uses its best estimates for these purposes, based on assumptions that it believes reflect the most probable set of economic conditions and planned courses of action. While actual results could differ materially from these estimates, and other than as described below in impairment of non-current non-financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss, no specific sources of estimation uncertainty have been identified by management that are believed to have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment within the next financial year to the carrying amount of the Company’s assets and liabilities as recorded at June 30, 2015.

The most significant judgments and estimates made by management in preparing the Company’s consolidated financial statements are described as follows:

Impairment of non-current non-financial assets

The Company reviews and evaluates the carrying value of each of its non-current non-financial assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the related asset may not be recoverable. The

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)

identification of such events or changes and the performance of the assessment requires significant judgment. Furthermore, management’s estimates of many of the factors relevant to completing this assessment, including commodity prices, foreign currency exchange rates, mineral resources, and operating, capital and reclamation costs, are subject to risks and uncertainties that may further affect the determination of the recoverability of the carrying amounts of its non-current non-financial assets.

At each reporting period, management reviews property plant and equipment, and exploration and evaluation assets for indicators of impairment. If any such indicator exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated to determine the extent of the impairment, if any. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Fair value is determined as the amount that would be obtained from the sale of the asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties.

Fair value of mineral assets is generally determined as the present value of the estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continued use of the asset, including any expansion prospects, using a post-tax discount rate. Value in use is determined as the present value of the estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continued use of the asset in its present form and from its ultimate disposal, using a pre-tax discount rate.

If the recoverable amount of the asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and the impairment loss is recognized in the profit or loss for that period. Impairment is normally assessed at the level of cash-generating units (“CGUs”), which are identified as the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets.

Non-financial assets other than goodwill that have been impaired are tested for possible reversal of the impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the impairment may have reversed. When a reversal of a previous impairment is recorded, the reversal amount is adjusted for depreciation that would have been recorded had the impairment not taken place.

The determination of fair value and value in use requires management to make estimates and assumptions about expected production and sales volumes, gold prices, mine plan estimates, operating costs, mine closure and restoration costs, future capital expenditures and appropriate discount rates for future cash flows. The estimates and assumptions are subject to risk

and uncertainty, and as such there is the possibility that changes in circumstances will alter these projections, which may impact the recoverable amount of the assets. In such circumstances, some or all of the carrying value of the assets may be further impaired or the impairment charge reduced with the impact recorded in the statement of income.

At June 30, 2015 the Company’s market capitalization was below the carrying amount of the Company’s net assets.  Combined with the volatile gold price, escalating costs in the industry and the Company’s depressed share price, management determined that an impairment indicator was identified and an impairment assessment for the Phoenix Gold Project was completed including an estimate of the project’s fair value less costs to sell.

Key assumptions incorporated in the impairment model included the following:

Long term gold price: US$1,263/oz.

Life of Mine gold head grade: 8.06 grams/tonne

Life of Mine average operating costs: $154/tonne mineralized material milled

Canadian / US dollar exchange rate: $1.17

Production volume and recoveries as indicated in the Company’s Technical Report filed on SEDAR February 28, 2014

Discount rate: 5%

Management’s impairment assessment did not result in the identification of an impairment loss as of June 30, 2015.  Although management believes the estimates applied in these impairment assessments are reasonable, such estimates are subject to significant uncertainties and judgments. Sensitivities to changes in gold price, grade and estimated operating costs that differ from current projections, along with increases to estimated capital costs may trigger an impairment that could be material.

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss

As discussed in Note 14 – Warrant Liability, the Company entered into a secured loan facility with CPPIB Credit Investments Inc (“CPPIB”) for US $50,000 on May 12, 2015.  As part of the loan facility the Company granted CPPIB 10,000,000 common share purchase warrants (“Warrant”) exercisable on or before May 12, 2020, at a price of $1.715 per Warrant.  The Company reviewed the terms of the Warrant agreement and determined that IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement is the applicable standard under which the accounting for the agreement should be evaluated. As the Warrant agreement meets the criteria for treatment as a financial liability through profit and loss, the Company designated it as such with initial and subsequent measurement at fair value.

Fair value of the Warrant Liability on initial recognition and in subsequent periods is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Subsequent fair value is calculated on each reporting date with gains and losses recorded in profit and loss as other fair value adjustments.

As discussed in Note 15 - Gold Stream Facility, the Company entered into a Gold Stream Facility with Royal Gold Inc. and its subsidiary (“Royal Gold”) on February 10, 2014. The Company reviewed the terms of the agreement and determined that IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement is the applicable standard under which the accounting for the agreement should be evaluated. In accordance with this standard, the Company concluded that the agreement represents an embedded derivative within a host debt instrument (the purchase and sale agreement for gold). As the entire hybrid contract meets the criteria for treatment as a financial liability at fair value through profit and loss, the Company designated it as such with initial and subsequent measurement at fair value. Transaction costs directly attributable to the Gold Stream Facility are expensed through profit and loss as incurred.

Fair value of the Gold Stream Facility on initial recognition is determined by the amount of the cash advance received. Subsequent fair value is calculated on each reporting date with gains and losses recorded in profit and loss as fair value and foreign exchange adjustments. Components of the adjustment to fair value at each reporting date include:

● Accretion expense due to passage of time

● Change due to movement in USD/CAD exchange rate as the liability is incurred in USD

● Change in the risk free interest rate

● Change in the Company specific credit spread

● Change in any expected ounces to be delivered

● Change in forward gold price forecast

Estimates and assumptions underlying the fair value calculations are reviewed on an ongoing basis in consideration of experience, internal and external sources of information and expectations of future events that management believes to be reasonable in the circumstances.

3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a)	New accounting policies
Long-term Incentive Plan

In the first quarter of 2015 the Company established a Long-Term Incentive Plan consisting of Restricted Share Units and Performance Share Units for directors and certain employees of the Company.  Each performance share unit (“PSU”) has the same value as one Common Share of the Company at the prevailing market price on the TSX.  The initial fair value of the PSU is calculated as of the grant date and is subsequently amortized as part of compensation expense over the vesting period.  The PSUs vest based on the Company achieving certain performance targets over a three year period and are settled in shares.

(in Canadian Dollars, in thousands except for share data)

3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Each restricted share unit (“RSU”) has the same value as one Common Share of the Company at the prevailing market price on the TSX.  The initial fair value of the RSU is calculated as of the grant date and is subsequently amortized as part of compensation expense over the vesting period.  The RSUs vest one-third on the first, second and third anniversary of the grant date and are settled in shares.

Inventories

Inventories may include materials and supplies, mineralized material in stockpile, in-circuit, and finished metal. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value.  Cost is determined on a weighted average basis and includes all costs incurred, based on a normal production capacity, in bringing in each product to its present location and condition.

Net realizable value is determined with reference to relevant market prices, less estimated applicable costs of completion.

Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of the asset.  A qualifying asset is one that takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use.  Capitalization of borrowing costs ceases when the asset is completed and ready for productive use.  All other borrowing costs are recognized as finance costs in the period in which they are incurred.

(b New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

IFRS 15, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”

In May 2014, the IASB and the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) completed its joint project to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard for IFRS and United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“US GAAP”). As a result of the joint project, the IASB issued IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“IFRS 15”). IFRS 15 establishes principles to address the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers.

IFRS 15 will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. Management is currently assessing the effect of this standard on our financial statements.

IFRS 9, “Financial Instruments”

The IASB issued its completed version of IFRS 9, Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”) in July 2014. The completed standard provides revised guidance on the classification and measurement of financial assets. It also introduces a new expected credit loss model for calculating impairment for financial assets. The new hedging guidance that was issued in November 2013 is incorporated into this new final standard.

This final version of IFRS 9 will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. Management is currently assessing the effect of this standard on our financial statements.

4. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair value hierarchy

Financial instruments recognized at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets must be classified into one of the three following fair value hierarchy levels:

Level 1 – measurement based on quoted prices (unadjusted) observed in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

- 9 -

RUBICON MINERALS CORPORATION

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

June 30, 2015 and 2014

(in Canadian Dollars, in thousands except for share data)

4. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

Level 2 – measurement based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability;

Level 3 – measurement based on inputs that are not observable (supported by little or no market activity) for the asset or liability.

The Company’s financial assets recognized at fair value consist of marketable securities having a fair value of $nil (December 31, 2014 - $825) and were measured in accordance with Level 1 of the above hierarchy.

The Company’s financial liabilities recognized at fair value through profit and loss consist of the Gold Stream Facility having a fair value of $92,827 (December 31, 2014 - $72,937) and measured in accordance with Level 3 of the above hierarchy, and the Warrant Liability having a fair value of $6,418 (December 31, 2015 - $nil), and measured in accordance with Level 2 of the above hierarchy.

The fair value of long-term debt approximates the carrying amount of $59,049 (December 31, 2014 - $nil).

Financial instrument risks

The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to the following risks:

Credit Risk

The Company’s primary exposure to credit risk is the risk of non-payment of cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2015 amounted to $77,375 (December 31, 2014 - $120,164).  These cash and cash equivalents are held on deposit with major Canadian banks or in bank guaranteed investment certificates which are guaranteed by a major Canadian bank or by a provincial government.

As the Company’s policy is to limit excess cash investments to deposits or investments with or guaranteed by major Canadian banks or the federal or a provincial government, the credit risk is considered by management to be negligible.

The Company’s credit risk exposure from accounts receivable financial instruments, which excludes HST refunds, at June 30, 2015 amounted to $417 (December 31, 2014 - $3).

Liquidity Risk

The Company’s liquidity risk from financial instruments is its need to meet operating accounts payable requirements, commitments, finance lease obligations, and debt service payments.  The Company maintains sufficient cash balances to meet these needs.

Foreign Exchange Risk

Foreign exchange risk is the risk that fluctuations in foreign exchange rates may have an effect on future cash flows associated with the Company’s US dollar denominated cash balances and financial instruments. Fluctuations in the CAD/USD exchange rate may result in a decrease or increase in foreign exchange income or expense. As at June 30, 2015, the foreign exchange risk related to the US dollar denominated Gold Stream Facility and Long-Term Debt was partially offset by the US dollar denominated cash balance.

A change in the CAD/USD exchange rate of 1.0% on the June 30, 2015 US dollar denominated balances related to  the Gold Streaming Facility, Long-Term Debt, and cash balances, would result in a change to net loss of approximately $840.

(a)     Provision for Closure and Reclamation

The Company’s provision for closure and reclamation is for its Phoenix Gold Project. Closure and reclamation activities related to this project will include land rehabilitation, demolition of buildings and processing facilities, ongoing care and maintenance and other costs.

The current estimated value of the future liability as of June 30, 2015 is $2,478 (December 31, 2014 - $2,263).

The estimated closure costs of the Phoenix Gold Project, based on the current condition of the site, were inflation adjusted to the estimated date of site remediation, which is 14 years from June 30, 2015, and then discounted back to the year-end using an estimate of the risk free rate as of June 30, 2015 of 1.68% (December 31, 2014 – 1.79%).  Accretion of the discount during the year was recorded to interest expense.

(b)     Provision for power agreements

In February 2015, the Company entered into certain agreements necessary to secure long-term power requirements for the Phoenix Gold Project.  The cost to the Company as a result of these agreements is dependent on a number of factors including the cost to construct the power infrastructure upgrades and power load consumption.

During the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company initiated and completed power infrastructure upgrade activities which triggered the recognition of a liability and a corresponding asset.  The current estimated value of the future liability as of June 30, 2015 is $6,600 (December 31, 2014 - $nil).

(c)     Flow-through share premium liability

Flow-through share liability consists of the remaining liability (premium) of the flow-through shares issued on April 9, 2015.  Flow-through share premium liability is recognized in deferred tax recoveries when the related qualifying resource expenditures are incurred.  The Company recognized $1,146 of deferred tax recoveries related to the flow-through share premium liability during the three months ended June 30, 2015.

14. WARRANT LIABILITY

As discussed in Note 12 – Long Term Debt, the Company entered into a secured loan facility with CPPIB for US$50,000 on May 12, 2015.  As part of the loan facility the Company granted CPPIB 10,000,000 Warrants exercisable on or before May 12, 2020, at a price of $1.715 per Warrant.

15. GOLD STREAM FACILITY

On February 10, 2014, the Company entered into a Gold Stream Facility with Royal Gold pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell an equivalent of 6.30% of future gold production from the Phoenix Gold Project to Royal Gold to a maximum of 135,000 ounces of gold and then 3.15% of future gold production thereafter. In consideration, Royal Gold agreed to pay US$75,000 to the Company as a deposit on the purchase price.

As at June 30, 2015, the Company had received the full US$75,000 deposit.

Upon delivery of gold to Royal Gold, Royal Gold will pay the current market price on the first 135,000 ounces by way of allocation of the deposit to satisfy 75% of the payment.  In addition, the Company will receive a cash payment equal to 25% of the spot gold price. After the deposit has been drawn down to $nil, Royal Gold will make a cash payment for all future gold deliveries equal to 25% of the spot gold price.

Upon expiry of the 40-year term of the agreement, any balance remaining unpaid, relating to the US$75,000 deposit, shall be refunded to Royal Gold.  The Gold Stream Facility continues to the end of the mine life.

Repayment of the deposit is secured against the assets of the Phoenix Gold Project. Rubicon has the right to raise up to US$100,000 of debt financing that will rank in priority to the Gold Stream Facility deposit. In the event that Royal Gold’s interest is subordinated to more than US$50,000 of debt, Royal Gold’s additional cash payments for gold deliveries will be reduced from 25% of market price by 5.4% multiplied by the amount of the senior debt outstanding and drawn in excess of US$50,000 divided by US$50,000.  As discussed in Note 12 – Long Term Debt, the Company entered into a debt financing with CPPIB for US$50,000 that qualified as ranking in priority to the Gold Stream Facility deposit.

The following is a summary of the changes in the Company’s Gold Stream Facility:

	Total
		$
Balance, as at January 1, 2014		-
Funds advanced during the year		69,901
Fair value adjustments recorded in the year:

Fair value adjustments recorded in the period:
Foreign exchange		5,153
Other fair value adjustments		(1,030	)
Balance, as at June 30, 2015		92,827

Other fair value adjustments represent the net effect on the Gold Stream Facility of changes in the variables included in the Company’s valuation model between the date of receipt of funds and the reporting date. These variables include loan accretion, risk free interest rate, forward gold price forecast, Company specific credit spread and expected gold ounces to be delivered.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 other fair value adjustments include accretion of $1,858 and $3,677 (June 30, 2014 - $159 and $768).  As the Gold Stream Facility is denominated in US dollars, foreign exchange represents the effect of the change in the CAD/USD exchange rate between the date of receipt of funds and the reporting date.

As of June 30, 2015 the Company has not repaid any of the deposit to Royal Gold.

(1) No options were exercised during six months ended June 30, 2015 or the year ended December 31, 2014.

The following is a summary of outstanding stock options:

June 30, 2015
Option Price Range		Number     Outstanding		Weighted Average Price		Weighted Average Life
					$	Years
$	1.13 - $1.46		816,653		1.27		3.92
$	1.47 - $3.63		11,260,964		1.82		3.58

Total Stock Options			17,428,947		2.72		2.83

The fair value of stock options granted during the period, has been estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on the following weighted average assumptions:

	Six Months Ended June 30, 2015		Six Months Ended June 30, 2014
Weighted average exercise price		$1.51		$1.48
Risk-free interest rate		0.97%		1.00%
Expected life	3.7 Years		3.7 Years
Expected volatility		70.51%		65.40%
Expected dividend yield	Nil		Nil

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded share-based payments expense, related to stock options, of $604 and $1,241 (June 30, 2014 - $493 and $733), in addition, share-based payments of $43 and $89 (June 30, 2014 - $20 and $55) were capitalized to exploration and evaluation assets. The fair value of each stock option is accounted for over the vesting period of the stock options and the related credit is included in share-based payments.

The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on Canadian government bonds with terms matching the expected life of the stock options. The expected volatility assumption is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s share price on the Toronto Stock Exchange over the recent past period equal to the expected life of the stock options.

16. SHARE CAPITAL (continued)

The weighted average measurement date fair value of options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2015 is $0.76 (June 30, 2014 - $0.52).

Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, particularly as to the expected price volatility of the share price.  Changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate and therefore it is management’s view that the existing models do not necessarily provide a single reliable measure of the fair value of the Company’s stock option grants.

Performance Stock Options

On June 6, 2012, the Company granted 1,400,000 stock options to an executive officer. Of the options granted, 400,000 stock options vested within 1 year of the grant date and the remaining 1,000,000 stock options (the “Performance Stock Options”) vest based on milestones related to certain of the Company’s objectives. As of June 30, 2015 500,000 of these Performance Stock Options are vested and 500,000 remain unvested. Subject to the vesting of these Performance Stock Options, the Performance Stock Options are exercisable at $2.94 per share for a period of five years from the date of grant.  These stock options are included in all the above stock option tables.

The fair value of the Performance Stock Options granted are estimated at the grant date using the Black Scholes option pricing model with the expense being recognized over the expected vesting term. The amount of expense recognized to subsequent period ends will be adjusted for any change in the estimated vesting period and any change to this expense will be recorded in the period of the change. The expense recorded relating to the Performance Stock Options during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 is $37 and $95 (June 30, 2014 - $57 and $115).

(b) Stock Appreciation Rights

The following is a summary of the changes in the Company’s outstanding stock appreciation rights (“SARs”):

	Six Months Ended June 30, 2015				Year Ended December 31, 2014
	Number of SARS		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Number of SARS		Weighted Average Exercise Price
			$					$
Balance at the beginning of the year		400,000		3.71		400,000		3.71
Granted		-		-		-		-
Exercised		-		-		-		-
Converted to stock options		-		-		-		-
Outstanding, end of the period		400,000		3.71		400,000		3.71
Exercisable, end of the period		400,000		3.71		400,000		3.71

The amount of cash payable under these stock appreciation rights will be an amount that will achieve the same after tax receipt of funds as the exercise of an equivalent number of stock options, followed by an immediate sale of the stock.  At June 30, 2015, the total liability outstanding for SARs calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model was $19 (December 31, 2014 - $24).

(c) Public Offering

On March 12, 2014, the Company closed a public offering and issued 74,290,000 units consisting of one common share of the Company (“Share”) and one half of one common share purchase warrant (“Warrant”) at a price of $1.55 per unit (“Unit”)

16. SHARE CAPITAL (continued)

for total gross proceeds of $115,150.  Each whole Warrant gives the holder the right to purchase one Share in the Company for a price of $2.00 per Share.  The proceeds are inclusive of an overallotment option which was fully exercised on closing.

Unit issuance costs were $7,672 including an underwriter’s commission of 5% of the gross proceeds.

Proceeds and related issue costs of the offering have been allocated between Share Capital and Warrant Reserve based on the pro-rata value of the underlying share and half warrant of the unit.  For the purposes of this allocation a share value on closing of the offering of $1.52 a Share and a Black-Scholes calculated value of $0.175 for each half Warrant were used. The assumptions used to value the Warrant include an expected life of one year, 81.5% volatility, a risk free rate of 1.04% and expected dividends of $nil.

The Warrants expired on March 12, 2015 unexercised.  Upon expiration $11,097 was transferred from the Warrant Reserve to Contributed Surplus.

On July 23, 2014, the Company closed a public flow-through share offering of 7,060,000 common shares on a “flow-through” basis under the Income Tax Act (Canada) at a price of $1.70 per flow-through share for aggregate gross proceeds of $12,002. $10,943 was recorded in share capital and the remaining $1,059 representing the implied premium was recorded as flow-through share premium liability. In connection with the offering, the Company incurred share issuance costs of $757 including an underwriter’s commission representing 5% of the gross proceeds. As at December 31, 2014, the Company had spent the full gross proceeds of the offering of $12,002 on eligible expenditures and the full amount of the flow-through share premium liability has been reversed. The expenditures were renounced to investors in February 2015 with an effective renunciation date of December 31, 2014.

On April 9, 2015, the Company closed a public flow-through share offering of 23,600,000 common shares on a “flow-through” basis under the Income Tax Act (Canada) at a price of $1.28 per flow-through share for aggregate gross proceeds of $30,208.  $28,635 was recorded in share capital and the remaining $1,573, representing the implied premium, was recorded as flow-through share premium liability (Note 13).  In connection with the offering, the Company incurred share issuance costs of $2,049 including an underwriter’s commission representing 5% of the gross proceeds.  As at June 30, 2015, the Company estimates it has spent $23,255 on eligible expenditures.  The Company expects the full amount of the offering will be renounced to investors with an effective renunciation date of December 31, 2015.

(f) Long-Term Incentive Plan

In January 2015 the Company granted 506,767 RSUs.  The amortized value of the RSUs at June 30, 2015 was $203 (December 31, 2014 - $nil).  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded share-based payments expense, related to the RSUs, of $116 and $182 (June 30, 2014 - $nil), in addition, share-based payments of $21 (June 30, 2014 - $nil) were capitalized to exploration and evaluation assets.

(b) The Company is required to make certain cash payments, incur exploration costs and pay certain advance royalty amounts to maintain its mineral properties in good standing.  These payments and costs are at the Company’s discretion and are based upon available financial resources and the exploration merits of the mineral properties which are evaluated on a periodic basis.

(c) In February 2015 the Company entered into certain agreements necessary to secure the remaining electric grid power requirements for the Phoenix Gold Project once it enters production.  The cost to the Company as a result of these agreements is dependent on a number of factors including the cost to construct the required power line upgrades.

As of June 30, 2015 the estimated cost of these agreements, in excess of amounts accrued and as described in Note 13 - Provisions and Other Liabilities, is estimated to be between $2,700 and $16,500.  The balance remains unaccrued as it is contingent on uncertain future events.
