The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, amounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and due to and from related parties approximate fair value due to the short term nature of these financial instruments.
Fair value measurements are categorized within the following hierarchy:
Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices); and
Level 3 - inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs).
The marketable securities held by the Company are carried at fair value based on quoted prices in the active market (Level 1).
The Company has no other financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

| 6. | Mineral Properties - Acquisition and Exploration Costs |
Caspiche
By an agreement dated October 11, 2005 and subsequently amended, the Company acquired the right to review a number of properties in the Maricunga region of Chile. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company had the right to earn a 100% interest in the properties by incurring aggregate expenditures of US$2.55 million over five years including conducting 15,500 meters (“m”) of drilling with the vendor retaining a 3% net smelter royalty (“NSR”) in the properties.
Having met the requirements to earn its interest in the properties, effective February 14, 2011 the Company exercised its option and acquired the properties. The vendor retains a 3% NSR from production from the property and has the right to buy the property back by reimbursing certain of the Company’s expenditures incurred on the property if it is not put into production within 15 years of exercising the option. In addition, the Company will be required to pay a further 0.08% NSR from production pursuant to an agreement with a private entity. The Company is required to make an advance annual royalty payment of US$250,000 up until March 31, 2020 (US$1,250,000 paid to March 31, 2015) and thereafter US$1 million annually for the period March 31, 2021 to March 31, 2025 or until commencement of commercial production, should production commence prior to March 31, 2025, at which time the advance royalty will cease and NSR will be payable.
Sideral project
On March 1, 2011 the Company announced it had entered into an option agreement to acquire 100% of the Sideral project adjacent to its Caspiche project. The agreement provides for the Company to acquire 100% of the Sideral property by meeting escalating annual drilling requirements, to a total of 15,000 m, within four years. After the 15,000 m of drilling is completed, the vendor has a once only back in right to acquire a 60% interest in the property, provided the discovery of a deposit of greater than 100 million tons at a grade of +0.5% copper has been made. Should the vendor elect to back in, it will be required to repay the Company three times its expenditure on the property, alternatively its interest will revert to a 2% NSR. The Company has the right to purchase 50% of the NSR for $10 million. To date the Company has not exercised the option on the property and is in discussions with the vendor regarding amendment of the option agreement.
Water agreement
In January 2014, the Company’s Chilean subsidiary, Sociedad Contractual Minera Eton Chile (Eton), negotiated new water exploration agreement (“Water Agreement”) terms with the Chilean subsidiary of Canadian company Atacama Pacific Gold Corporation (“Atacama Pacific”). The new terms amend the original agreement entered into between the parties in May 2013. The Water Agreement allows Eton to earn an additional 40% interest, for an aggregate 90% interest, in water exploration tenements near Peñas Blancas (Laguna Verde) and Cuenca Two in the Maricunga region, northern Chile. To earn the additional 40% interest, Eton is required to incur an additional 40% (total of 90%) of all expenditures relating to exploration and potential development on the water tenements. In addition, following any discovery and subsequent approval of water rights by the General Directorate of Water Resources (“DGA”), Eton will assume Atacama Pacific’s obligation to pay Hydro Exploranciones SpA (“Hydro”), an Atacama Pacific affiliate, US$15,000 per litre per second (“l/s”) of DGA approved water rights. Atacama Pacific will remain obligated to pay Hydro US$15,000 per l/s on its 10% interest. Regardless of the total amount of DGA approved water acquired, payments to Hydro are capped at US$1 million. These payments are not applicable to Eton’s original 50% interest in any water rights acquired. In addition, Eton will pay US$5,000 per month to Hydro from the date of any application for water rights for assisting with securing such water rights. The aggregate of the monthly payments are deductible from any amount payable to Hydro for water rights acquired. The objective of the water program is to identify, evaluate, and secure water sources to support a potential initial heap leach gold stage and a follow-on gold-copper sulphide stage of mining at the Company’s Caspiche gold-copper project.

Land easement
On June 10, 2013 the Company announced that its application for surface rights had been granted by the Chilean Government. The Company already has a lease agreement with the Chilean Government for the surface rights that correspond to its initial mineral rights in the area, and the new easement extends this area to cover most of its additional tenements as well as areas that may be required for Caspiche development. In order to maintain these rights, the Company is required to make payments of approximately US$7.4 million of which US$2.6 million has been paid to March 31, 2015, which are valid for 25 years. Annual payments are required of approximately US$600,000.

The Company has adopted an incentive stock option plan (the “Plan”), the essential elements of which are as follows: On May 31, 2013, shareholders approved an amended Plan reducing the aggregate number of shares of the Company’s capital stock issuable pursuant to options granted under the Plan, such that options granted under the Plan may not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company at the time of the option grant. At December 31, 2014, the maximum number of options issuable under the Plan was 8,840,775. The Plan provides for a limit on insider participation such that the shares reserved for issuance to insiders does not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company. Options granted under the Plan may have a maximum term of ten years, but options granted to date have had a life of 5 years. Unless subsequently amended, the exercise price of options granted under the Plan will not be less than the last closing market price of the Company’s shares immediately preceding the grant date. Options granted under the Plan may be subject to vesting at times as determined by the directors of the Company and the Toronto Stock Exchange. Stock options usually vest in tranches over a period of 1 to 2 years (50 - 100% per year).
