1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Business Operations

Business Operations

Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. ("Thunder Mountain", "THMG", or "the Company") was originally incorporated under the laws of the State of Idaho on November 9, 1935, under the name of Montgomery Mines, Inc. In April 1978, the Montgomery Mines Corporation was obtained by a group of the Thunder Mountain property holders and changed its name to Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc., with the primary goal to further develop their holdings in the Thunder Mountain Mining District, located in Valley County, Idaho. Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. takes its name from the Thunder Mountain Mining District, where its principal lode mining claims were located. For several years, the Company's activities were restricted to maintaining its property position and exploration activities. During 2005, the Company sold its holdings in the Thunder Mountain Mining District. During 2007, the Company acquired the South Mountain Mines property in southwest Idaho and initiated exploration activities on that property, which continue today.

On December 30, 2022, Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. by and through its subsidiaries Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc., a Nevada Corporation, and South Mountain Mines, Inc., an Idaho Corporation ("SMMI") (collectively the "Company", "THMG", or "We", "Our" or "Us") agreed to terminate an Option Agreement, (the "BeMetals Option Agreement") with BeMetals Corporation, a British Columbia corporation, and BeMetals USA Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("BeMetals BMET").

The "BeMetals Option Agreement was entered into on February 27, 2019, the original terms of the Option Agreement, BeMetals provided the funding to SMMI for project expenses including Management Services Income. The Company has 8 million common shares of BMET USA with a market value of $591,184, and the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $464,225 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. See Note 3 for further information.

Basis of Presentation and Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has historically incurred losses, however, the Company has cash reserves and available for sale securities sufficient to cover normal operating expenses for the following 12 months. If necessary, the Company continues to have the ability to raise additional capital in order to fund its future exploration and working capital requirements.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company; its wholly owned subsidiaries, Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc. ("TMRI") and South Mountain Mines, Inc. ("SMMI"); and a company in which the Company owns 75% and has majority control, Owyhee Gold Trust, LLC ("OGT"). The Company's consolidated financial statements reflect the other investor's 25% non-controlling, capped interest in OGT. Intercompany accounts are eliminated in consolidation.

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant areas requiring the use of management estimates and assumptions include the carrying value of properties and mineral interests, environmental remediation liabilities, deferred tax assets, and stock-based compensation. Management's estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

Management service revenue is recognized when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation required under its management contract with BeMetals. Such an obligation is satisfied over time as work is performed and the Company has a contractual right to payment.

Income Taxes

The Company recognizes deferred income tax liabilities or assets at the end of each period using the tax rate expected to be in effect when the taxes are actually paid or recovered. A valuation allowance is recognized on deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purposes of the balance sheet and statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be a cash equivalent.

Fair Value Measurements

When required to measure assets or liabilities at fair value, the Company uses a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used. The Company determines the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements in their entirety fall. The categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Level 1 uses quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, Level 2 uses significant other observable inputs, and Level 3 uses significant unobservable inputs. The amount of the total gains or losses for the period are included in earnings that are attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to those assets and liabilities still held at the reporting date. At March 31, 2023, the Company has one financial asset, investment in equity security, that is adjusted to fair value on a recurring basis for which the fair value is determined based on Level 1 inputs as the equity security is traded on a stock exchange. The Company has no financial liabilities that are adjusted to fair value on a recurring basis.

Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, and the investment in BeMetal's equity securities, the carrying value of which approximates fair value based on the nature of those instruments.

Investments

The Company determines the appropriate classification of investments at the time of acquisition and re-evaluates such determinations at each reporting date. Equity securities that have a readily determined fair value are carried at fair value determined using Level 1 fair value measurement inputs with the change in fair value recognized as unrealized gain (loss) in the consolidated statement of operations each reporting period. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recognized on a specific identification basis.

Mineral Interests

The Company capitalizes costs for acquiring mineral interests, and expenses costs to maintain mineral rights and leases as incurred. Exploration costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Should a property reach the production stage, these capitalized costs would be amortized using the units-of-production method based on periodic estimates of ore reserves. Mineral interests are periodically assessed for impairment of value and any subsequent losses are charged to operations at the time of impairment.

If a mineral interest is abandoned or sold, its capitalized costs are charged to operations. Consideration received by the Company pursuant to joint ventures or purchase option agreements is applied against the carrying value of the related mineral interest. When and if payments received exceed the carrying value, the excess amount is recognized as a gain in the consolidated statement of operations in the period the consideration is received.

Leases

Arrangements meeting the definition of a lease are classified as operating or financing leases and are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet as both a right-of-use asset and lease liability, calculated by discounting fixed lease payments over the lease term at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company's incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are increased by interest and reduced by payments each period, and the right-of-use asset is amortized over the lease term. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the right-of-use asset result in straight-line rent expense over the lease term. For finance leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the right-of-use asset results in front-loaded expense over the lease term. Variable lease expenses are recorded when incurred.

Investments in Joint Ventures

For companies and joint ventures where the Company holds more than 50% of the voting interests, but less than 100%, and has significant influence, the company or joint venture is consolidated, and other investor interests are presented as noncontrolling. See Note 3 regarding the Company's investment in Owyhee Gold Trust. Joint ventures in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not control, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

Reclamation and Remediation

The Company's operations have been, and are subject to, standards for mine reclamation that have been established by various governmental agencies. The Company would record the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which the Company incurred a legal obligation for the retirement of tangible long-lived assets. A corresponding asset would also be recorded and depreciated over the life of the asset.

For non-operating properties, the Company accrues costs associated with environmental remediation obligations when it is probable that such costs will be incurred, and they are reasonably estimable. Such costs are based on management's estimate of amounts expected to be incurred when the remediation work is performed. The Company had accrued $81,250 at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, on its consolidated balance sheets relating to estimated mine closure and reclamation costs on its South Mountain Mines property.

Share-Based Compensation

Share-based payments to employees and directors, including grants of employee stock options, are measured at fair value and expensed in the consolidated statements of operations over the vesting period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Updates Adopted

In June 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2022-03 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Resale Restrictions. This update is to clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. This update is effective for fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2023 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2020-06 Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity. The update is to address issues identified because of the complexity associated with applying generally accepted accounting principles for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years and with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this standard did not impact the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

The Company is required to have dual presentation of basic earnings per share ("EPS") and diluted EPS. The Company calculates basic earnings (loss) per share by dividing net income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, including options and warrants that could share in our earnings through the conversion to common shares, except where their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. For the periods ended March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 Outstanding common stock equivalents were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive due to the net loss for the period.

2. Mineral Interest Commitments

On January 31, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a resolution to purchase 56 acres of private land for $50,000. This is contiguous on the south end of the existing patented and lode claims at the South Mountain Project. A real estate purchase and sale agreement was signed on February 07, 2023. Under terms of the agreement $10,000 was paid and recorded as a deposit for the period ending March 31, 2023. The balance of $40,000 is due by December 29, 2023. Failure to make the payment forfeits the deposit of $10,000 and cancels the agreement.

The Company has two lease arrangements with landowners that own land parcels adjacent to the Company's South Mountain patented and unpatented mining claims. The leases were originally for a seven-year period, with annual payments of $20 per acre. The leases were renewed for an additional 10 years at $30 per acre paid annually, Acree Lease renewed on June 19, 2014, and the Lowry Lease was on October 23, 2014; committed payments are listed in the table below. The leases have no work requirements.

		Annual Payment
Acree Lease (June)	$	3,390
Lowry Lease (October)		11,280
Total	$	14,670

The Company has 26 unpatented claims (533 acres) in the Trout Creek area and 21 unpatented claims in the South Mountain area.

The claim fees are paid on these unpatented claims annually as follows:

Target Area		2023
Trout Creek -State of Nevada	$	4,290
Trout Creek -Lander County, Nevada		324
South Mountain-State of Idaho		3.465
Total	$	8,079

3. South Mountain Project

BeMetals Option Agreement:

On December 30, 2022, the Company agreed to terminate the Option Agreement, with BeMetals Corporation. The BeMetals Option Agreement ("the Option Agreement") was entered into on February 27, 2019, under the original terms of the Option Agreement, BeMetals provided the funding to SMMI for project expenses including management services.

According to the terms of the Option Agreement BMET USA and SMMI entered a management contract whereby BeMetals paid $25,000 monthly to SMMI for management services to enable BMET to perform exploration and development work with respect to the South Mountain Project. Management service income of $75,000 was recognized during the three month period ended March 31, 2022.

On February 7, 2023, the Company entered into a Mutual Release (the “Release”) with BeMetals Corp. whereby the Company acknowledged and agreed that BeMetals had completed all of its obligations under the Option Agreement in consideration of a final payment of $33,530, which includes payment of all expenditures incurred through the date of termination. The Company also agreed that BeMetals shall not be obligated to make any additional payments or share issuances of further expenditures. The release discharges both parties from any and all claims arising in connection with the Option Agreement.

Subsequent to the receipt of the Release payment, the Company made payments of $6,035 related to expenses attributable to the Option Agreement and covered under the Release. The remaining balance of $27,495 was recognized in other accrued liabilities for the period ended March 31, 2023 to cover any additional expenses associated with the Option Agreement.

SMMI Joint Venture - OGT, LLC

The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary SMMI is the sole manager of the South Mountain Project in its entirety through a separate Mining Lease with Option to Purchase (“Lease Option”) with the Company’s majority-owned subsidiary OGT. SMMI has an option to purchase the South Mountain mineral interest for a capped $5 million less net returns royalties paid through the date of exercise. The Lease Option expires in November 2026. If SMMI exercises the option, the option payment of $5 million less advance royalties will be distributed 100% by OGT to OGT’s minority member, and OGT will cease to exist. Under the Lease Option, SMMI pays an advance of $5,000 net returns royalty to OGT annually on November 4 which is distributed to OGT’s minority member.

On March 21, 2022, the Company granted 1,820,000 stock options to officers and directors of the Company. The fair value of the options was determined to be $158,341 using the Black Scholes model and included share-based payment awards to nonemployees of $13,920. The Company has elected to recognize the effect of forfeitures in compensation cost when they occur. Previously recognized compensation cost for a nonemployee share-based payment award shall be reversed in the period that the award is forfeited. The options are exercisable on or before March 21, 2027, and have an exercise price of $0.09. The options were fully vested upon grant and the entire fair value was recognized as compensation expense during the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

The fair value of each option award was estimated on the date of the grant using the assumptions noted in the following table:

	March 21, 2022
Stock price	$0.088
Exercise price	$0.09
Expected volatility	188.9%
Expected dividends	-
Expected terms (in years)	5.0
Risk-free rate	2.39%

For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, no options were granted and no options expired.

The following is a summary of the Company's options issued and outstanding under the SIP:

	Shares			Weighted Average Exercise Price
Outstanding and exercisable at December 31, 2021	3,355,000		$	0.10
Granted	1,820,000			0.09
Expired	(400,000	)		0.09
Outstanding and exercisable at December 31, 2022	4,775,000			0.10

Outstanding and exercisable at March 31, 2023	4,775,000		$	0.093

The average remaining contractual term of the options outstanding and exercisable at March 31, 2023 was 2.47 years. On March 31, 2023, options outstanding and exercisable had an aggregate intrinsic value of $12,580 based on the Company's stock price of $0.094 on March 31, 2023.

9. Leases

The Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, Leases. Under this guidance, arrangements meeting the definition of a lease are classified as operating or financing leases and are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet as both a right-of-use asset and lease liability, calculated by discounting fixed lease payments over the lease term at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company's incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are increased by interest and reduced by payments each period, and the right-of-use asset is amortized over the lease term. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the right-of-use asset result in straight-line rent expense over the lease term. For finance leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the right-of-use asset results in front-loaded expense over the lease term. Variable lease expenses are recorded when incurred.

The Company renewed its office operating lease on February 1, 2023, for 24 months. The Company entered into a two-year operating lease for its corporate office space for a total lease payment of $41,625, and as a result a liability and right-of-use asset of $38,701 was recognized on the lease inception date, February 1, 2023. To calculate the liability and right of use asset, the Company utilized a 7.0% incremental borrowing rate to discount the future rent payments of approximately $1,734 per month over the two-year lease term.

Right of Use (ROU) asset balance as of March 31, 2023		Total Amount
Lease Present Value	$	38,701
Average Expense		(3,468	)
Rent Expense Paid		3,375
Lease Liability		(2,933	)
Balance Amount	$	35,675

The Company's ROU asset decreased by the net amount of $3,026 for a total amount of $35,675, for the period ending March 31, 2023. The lease contains no renewal option.

10. Subsequent Events

On April 12, 2023, the Company received a notice of Complaint filed in the fourth judicial district court of the State of Idaho by a law firm representing a former mining contractor who had worked on the South Mountain Mine project in the Fall of 2020. The Complaint alleges the Company owes the contractor $44,903 for past services related to the BeMetals Option Agreement. The Company has contested the amount owing and expects the action to be settled without a material impact on the Company's financial position.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation ("MD&A") is intended to help the reader understand our financial condition. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our financial statements and the accompanying integral notes ("Notes") thereto. The following statements may be forward-looking in nature and actual results may differ materially.

Plan of Operation:

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS: The following discussion may contain forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include the following: inability to locate property with mineralization, lack of financing for exploration efforts, competition to acquire mining properties; risks inherent in the mining industry, and risk factors that are listed in the Company's reports and registration statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Company, including its subsidiaries, owns mining rights, mining claims, and properties in the mining areas of Nevada and Idaho, which includes its South Mountain Property in Idaho, and its Trout Creek Property in Nevada.

The Company own 100% of the outstanding stock of Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc., a Nevada Corporation. Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc. owns 100% of the outstanding stock of South Mountain Mines, Inc. (SMMI), an Idaho Corporation., Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc. completed the direct purchase of 100% ownership of South Mountain Mines, Inc. on September 27, 2007, which consisted of 17 patented mining claims (approximately 327 acres) located in Owyhee County in southwestern Idaho. After the purchase, Thunder Mountain Resources staked 21 unpatented lode mining claims and obtained mineral leases on 545 acres of adjoining private ranch land.

The current land package at South Mountain consists of 17 patented mining claims encompassing approximately 326 acres, 21 unpatented mining lode claims covering approximately 290 acres, and approximately 489 acres of leased private land. In addition, the project owns 360 acres of private land (mill site) not contiguous with the mining claims.

All holdings are in the South Mountain Mining District, Owyhee County, Idaho.

The Company's plan of operation for the next twelve months, subject to business conditions, will be to continue to advance the South Mountain Project, including continued baseline environmental and engineering work necessary to complete a Preliminary Economic Analysis.

The South Mountain Project

South Mountain is a polymetallic development project focused on high-grade zinc and silver. It is located approximately 70 miles southwest of Boise, Idaho (see Figure 2). The Project was intermittently mined from the late 1800s to the late 1960s and its existing underground workings remain intact and well maintained. Historic production at the Project has largely come from high-grade massive sulfide bodies that remain open at depth and along strike. According to historical smelter records, approximately 53,642 tons of mineralized material has been mined to date. These records also indicate average grades; 14.5% Zn, 11.63 opt Ag, 0.063 opt Au, 2.4% Pb, and 1.4% Cu were mined.

Thunder Mountain Gold Inc. purchased and advanced the Project from 2007 through 2019 investing approximately US$12M during that period. The current mineral resource estimate of the deposit is detailed in Table 3 below. The Project is largely on and surrounded by private surface land, and as such, the permitting and environmental aspects of the Project are expected to be straightforward. Permits are currently in place for underground and surface exploration and development activities.

Figure 2. Location of South Mountain Project

South Mountain Project - BeMetals Option Agreement

Under the BeMetals Corporation (TSX-V: BMET) Option Agreement, BeMetals and Thunder Mountain Gold formed a project team early in 2019 that is focused on advancing the South Mountain Project. This Boise Idaho-based team includes key management of Thunder Mountain Gold Inc., who have coordinated re-establishment of the Project site prior to the start of drilling. In addition, BeMetals appointed a project manager and project geologist for this team, along with technical and underground support.

With the help of Thunder Mountain Gold, BeMetals (BMET) commenced drilling at South Mountain in July of 2019 and drilled twenty-one holes totaling 7,517 feet (2,290 meters) from five underground drilling stations within the Sonneman level. The drilling program was designed to test potential down plunge extensions, and overall continuity to the mineralized zones and confirm the grade distribution of the current polymetallic mineral resource. All of the drill core recovered from the drilling was logged on site and assayed by ALS Chemex. Selected intervals and results are summarized in the Company`s Form 10K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

On September 21, 2021, the Company agreed to an extension of the Option Agreement with BeMetals Corp. The Extension is through the 2022 calendar year, with the same terms to acquire up to a 100% interest in the South Mountain Project in southwest Idaho, U.S.A. In exchange for the Extension, BeMetals paid the Company the Tranche 6 Payment of $250,000.

On December 30, 2022, Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. by and through its subsidiaries Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc., a Nevada Corporation, and South Mountain Mines, Inc., an Idaho Corporation ("SMMI") (collectively the "Company", "THMG", or "We", "Our" or "Us") agreed to terminate the Option Agreement, (the "BeMetals Option Agreement") with BeMetals Corporation, a British Columbia corporation, and BeMetals USA Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("BeMetals BMET").

2022 PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS - SOUTH MOUNTAIN PROJECT

On September 5, 2022, Crone Geophysics based in Toronto, Canada initiated a time domain pulse electromagnetic (PEM) survey over a portion of the South Mountain Mines. The objective of the survey is to delineate massive sulfide mineralization within a marble unit bounded by Paleozoic schists. Historic mining on the area was conducted on massive sulfide mineralization associated hosted by the Laxey marble within the survey area. Bowes (1985) describes the sulfide bodies as pipe-like dipping to the southwest at 40-50° and raking 50°. The survey was completed on November 7, 2022. In addition to the PEM survey, property scale topography, geology and ground magnetics will be included to provide supporting data for the interpretation. The digital products include raw data, intermediate processed products, and final products in several data formats.

In May of 2021, BeMetals Corp. completed an updated Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE"), incorporating results from Phase 1 and 2 underground diamond drilling programs at the South Mountain Project. The updated MRE includes a substantially increased resource for the Project while maintaining the high-grade nature of the mineralization.

The updated Independent MRE, which has an effective date of April 20, 2021, was prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI-43-101") by Hard Rock Consulting, LLC, based in the U.S.A. A technical report for this MRE was filed with SEDAR, and on the Company's website, within 45 days from the date of this news release.

After signing the Option Agreement Extension, BeMetals Corp. embarked on a phase 3 program at South Mountain with the objective to significantly expand the scale of the current Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") at South Mountain (See Summary of the MRE below), testing and establishing the down depth extent of mineralization on the DMEA zone. The DMEA Zone is the largest known body of mineralization on the Property, containing the majority of tonnage in the current MRE, and the mineralized zone remains open at depth.

Based on the last two phases of underground drilling and all the historical exploration data available, we believe there is the potential to expand the down-plunge extensions of the mineral resource with this new phase of surface drilling at the Property. The plan is to initially complete approximately 7,000 feet (2,100 meters) of surface core drilling in this phase of exploration. Assuming this exploration program is successful, the BMET will update the current MRE and continue the ongoing Preliminary Economic Assessment for the Project in 2022.

By December of 2021, 2 surface core holes had been drilled for a combined total of 3,600 feet, the results of which were added to the resource model.

Figure 1: 3D Perspective view inclined 20⁰ looking north-north-east, with hole locations for SM20-028 thru SM20-050

Underground core drilling was conducted to extend and upgrade the South Mountain resource - testing the continuity and down-dip extensions of the high-grade polymetallic massive sulfide zones. The Company and BeMetals completed additional core drilling in the DMEA and Laxey zones to complete the confirmation and extensional drilling. The Company also retrieved bulk samples for metallurgical test work.

More than 15,000 feet (4,500 meters) have been drilled at South Mountain and included in the model. The South Mountain historic ore zones remain open down-dip on the zones encountered. The successful drilling and development work proves that the South Mountain resource continues to grow with potential to increase the resource substantially.

Note to United States investors concerning estimates of measured, indicated and inferred resources.

Information concerning our mining properties has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of subpart 1300 of Regulation SK, which first became applicable to us for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. These requirements differ significantly from the previously applicable disclosure requirements of SEC Industry Guide 7. Among other differences, subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K requires us to disclose our mineral resources, in addition to our mineral reserves, as of the end of our most recently completed fiscal year both in the aggregate and for each of our individually material mining properties. You are cautioned that mineral resources do not have demonstrated economic value. Mineral resources are subject to further exploration and development, are subject to additional risks, and no assurance can be given that they will eventually convert to future reserves. Inferred Resources, in particular, have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and their economic and legal feasibility. Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the Inferred Resource exists or is economically or legally mineable. See Item 1A, Risk Factors.

Disclosure of the NI-43-101 has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Canadian securities laws, including Canadian National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101"). The Highlights of South Mountain NI-43-101 section refers to "mineral resources," "measured mineral resources," "indicated mineral resources," and "inferred mineral resources."

Qualified Person - The technical information in this Form 10Q has been reviewed and approved by Larry D. Kornze, (Retired), Director of Thunder Mountain Gold Inc., and a "Qualified Person" as defined by National Instrument 43-101 standards.

Trout Creek Project, Lander County, Nevada

The Trout Creek project is a highly prospective gold exploration target located along the western flank of the Shoshone Mountain Range in the Reese River Valley in Lander County, Nevada. The Project is located approximately 155 air miles northeast of Reno, Nevada, or approximately 20 miles south of Battle Mountain, Nevada, in Sections 10, 11, 14, 16, 21, 22, 27; T.29N.; R.44E. Mount Diablo Baseline & Meridian, Lander County, Nevada. Latitude: 40 23' 36" North, Longitude: 117 00' 58" West. The property is generally accessible year-round by traveling south from Battle Mountain Nevada on state highway 305, which is paved.

The Trout Creek target is anchored by a regional gravity anomaly on a well-defined northwest-southeast trending break in the alluvial fill thickness and underlying bedrock. Previous geophysical work in the 1980s revealed an airborne magnetic anomaly associated with the same structure, and this was further verified and outlined in 2008 by Company personnel, with consultation from Jim Wright - Wright Geophysics using a ground magnetometer. The target is covered by alluvial fan deposits of generally unknown thickness, shed from the adjacent Shoshone Range, a fault block mountain range composed of Paleozoic sediments of both upper and lower plate rocks of the Roberts Mountains thrust.

Wright Geophysics also conducted a ground gravity survey and CSMAT over the pediment target area and this provided insight into the gravel-bedrock contact as well as defining the favorable structural setting within the buried bedrock. An untested drill target was identified under the gravel pediment along these structures, and the geophysics showed that the bedrock was within 500 feet of the surface, which is reasonable depth for exploration drilling and potential mining if a significant mineralization is encountered.

The Company does not plan to conduct any work on the Trout Creek Property in 2023, but instead will focus all of their efforts on their South Mountain Project.

There are currently no environmental permits required for the planned exploration work on the property. In the future, a notice of intent may be required with the Bureau of Land Management.

Competition

We are an exploration stage company. We compete with other mineral resource exploration and development companies for financing and for the acquisition of new mineral properties. Many of the mineral resource exploration and development companies with whom we compete have greater financial and technical resources than us. Accordingly, these competitors may be able to spend greater amounts on acquisitions of mineral properties of merit, on exploration of their mineral properties and on development of their mineral properties. In addition, they may be able to afford greater geological expertise in the targeting and exploration of mineral properties. This competition could result in competitors having mineral properties of greater quality and interest to prospective investors who may finance additional exploration and development. This competition could adversely impact on our ability to finance further exploration and to achieve the financing necessary for us to develop our mineral properties.

Employees

The Company employs three full-time officers. As part of the BeMetals agreement, the Company allowed these officers to work on the South Mountain Project on a consulting arrangement with BeMetals. It is anticipated that the employees will continue their work with the Company.

Results of Operations:

For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded a net loss of $359,830 compared to a net loss of $511,729 for the same period in 2022. The decrease in net loss is due to the decrease in management and administrative expenses associated with stock based compensation expense and the decrease in unrealized loss on investments recognized in 2022 when compared to the period ended March 31, 2023.

The Company recognized no income in management services income for the three-month period ended on March 31, 2023, compared to $75,000 recognized for the Quarter ending March 31, 2022. The decrease in revenue is due to the termination of the BeMetals Option Agreement (see Note 3).

Total operating expenses for the three months ending March 31, 2023, of $213,132 decreased from the comparative period in 2022 by $134,631 or 39%. Exploration expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2023, increased by $17,266 or 1,482% when compared to same period in 2022. The increase in exploration expense is due to the termination of the BeMetals Option Agreement. Prior to the termination of the Option Agreement on December 30, 2022 BeMetals was funding all exploration expenses at the Company’s South Mountain Property.

Legal and accounting costs decreased for three-month period ended March 31, 2023, compared to 2022 by $5,731 or 8%. Management and administrative expenses decreased by $145,938 or 53% principally due to the decrease in stock compensation of $158,341 related to options issued to our officers and directors on March 21, 2022. There were no options issued for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.

Other expenses decreased by $92,268 or 39% for the quarter due to a decrease in the unrealized loss on the BeMetals investment. For the quarter ended March 31, 2023 the Company recognized an unrealized loss on the investment in BeMetals of $147,428 compared to an unrealized loss of $239,064 in the same quarter of 2022. The decrease in unrealized loss of $91,636 represents a 38% decline from the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

The consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2023, have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Such an assumption contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the consolidated financial statements for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023, we have cash reserves and available for sale securities sufficient to cover normal operating expenditures for the following 12 months.

The Company has 8 million common shares of BMET USA with a market value of $591,184, and the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $464,225 for the year ending March 31, 2023.

Based upon current plans, Thunder Mountain Gold management is confident that the Company will have the financial strength and opportunities to meet its financial obligations for the next 12 months. Factors considered in substantiating this conclusion include:

On March 31, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $464,225.
The Company has 8 million common shares of BMET USA with a market value of $591,184, on March 31, 2023.
The ability to raise additional equity capital based upon the results of the exploration and development conducted by BeMetals.

It is important to note, upon the termination of BeMetals South Mountain Option Agreement, the Company's management immediately commenced marketing the South Mountain Project to other groups that have expressed an interest.

We believe we have the ability to continue as a going concern, even though our accumulated deficit totaled $6,711,211 as of March 31, 2023. Our plans for the long-term continuation as a going concern include financing our future operations through sales of our common stock and/or debt and the eventual profitable exploitation of our mining properties. The Company does have the option of selling BeMetals common stock shares. If we are not successful with our plans, equity holders could then lose all or a substantial portion of their investment.

At March 31, 2023, we have current assets of $1,108,268. For the period ended March 31, 2023, net cash used for operating activities was $208,493. Our future liquidity and capital requirements will depend on many factors, including timing, cost and progress of our exploration efforts, our evaluation of, and decisions with respect to, our strategic alternatives, and costs associated with the regulatory approvals. If it turns out that we do not have enough cash to complete our exploration programs, we will make every effort to raise additional funds from public offerings, sale of liquid stock or loans.

On April 21, 2023, we had $439,173 in cash in our bank accounts.
We do not include in this consideration any option payments mentioned below.
Management is committed to managing expenses of all types to not exceed the on-hand cash resources of the Company at any point in time, now or in the future.
The Company will also consider other sources of funding, including potential mergers, the sale of all or part of the Company’s BeMetals Corp. (TSX-V: BMET) common shares beneficially held, and/or additional farm-out of its other exploration property.

Our future liquidity and capital requirements will depend on many factors, including timing, cost and progress of our exploration efforts, our evaluation of, and decisions with respect to, our strategic alternatives, and costs associated with the regulatory approvals. If it turns out that we do not have enough cash to complete our exploration programs, we will attempt to raise additional funds from a public offering, a private placement, mergers, farm-outs or loans.

Additional financing will be required in the future to fund our planned operations. We do not know whether additional financing will be available when needed or on acceptable terms, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional financing, when necessary, we may have to delay our exploration efforts or any property acquisitions or be forced to cease operations. Collaborative arrangements may require us to relinquish our rights to certain mining claims.

Contractual Obligations

During 2008 and 2009, three lease arrangements were made with landowners that own land parcels adjacent to the Company's South Mountain patented and unpatented mining claims. The leases were for a seven-year period, with options to renew, with annual payments (based on $20 per acre) listed in the following table. The leases have no work requirements.

Contractual obligations	Payments due by period
Contractual obligations	Total*	Less than 1 year	2-3 years	4-5 years	More than 5 years
Acree Lease (yearly, June)(1)	$3,390	$3,390	—	—	$ -
Lowry Lease (yearly, October)(1)(2)	$11,280	$11,280	—	—	$ -
OGT LLC⁽³⁾	$15,000	$5,000	$10,000	—	$ -
Total	$29,670	$19,670	$10,000	—	$ -

(1) Amounts shown are for the lease periods years 15 through 16, a total of 1 year that remains after 2022, the lease was extended an additional 10 years at $30/acre after 2014.

(2) The Lowry lease has an early buy-out provision for 50% of the remaining amounts owed in the event the Company desires to drop the lease prior to the end of the first seven-year period.

(3) OGT LLC, managed by the Company's wholly owned subsidiary SMMI, receives a $5,000 per year payment for up to 10 years, or until a $5 million capped NPI Royalty is paid.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have identified our critical accounting policies, the application of which may materially affect the financial statements, either because of the significance of the financials statement item to which they relate, or because they require management's judgment in making estimates and assumptions in measuring, at a specific point in time, events which will be settled in the future. The critical accounting policies, judgments and estimates which management believes have the most significant effect on the financial statements are set forth below:

a) Estimates. Our management routinely makes judgments and estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. As the number of variables and assumptions affecting the future resolution of the uncertainties increase, these judgments become even more subjective and complex. Although we believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable, actual results may differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in estimates and assumptions based upon actual results may have a material impact on our results of operation and/or financial condition.

b) Stock-based Compensation. The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, "Compensation - Stock Compensation" using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

c) Income Taxes. We have current income tax assets recorded in our financial statements that are based on our estimates relating to federal and state income tax benefits. Our judgments regarding federal and state income tax rates, items that may or may not be deductible for income tax purposes and income tax regulations themselves are critical to the Company's financial statement income tax items.

d) Investments. In a joint venture where the Company holds more than 50% of the voting interest and has significant influence, the joint venture is consolidated with the presentation of non-controlling interest. In determining whether significant influences exist, the Company considers its participation in policy-making decisions and its representation on the venture management committee.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Not required for smaller reporting companies.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

At the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision of, and with the participation of, the Company's Management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a - 15(e) and Rule 15d - 15(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were adequately designed and effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its reports that it files or submits to the SEC under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in applicable rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

During the quarter covered by this report, there have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Mineral resources are subject to further exploration and development, are subject to additional risks, and no assurance can be given that they will eventually convert to future reserves. Inferred Resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and their economic and legal feasibility. Mineral interests are periodically assessed for impairment of value and any subsequent losses are charged to operations at the time of impairment. Thunder Mountain Gold evaluated these impairment considerations and determined that no such impairments occurred as of March 31, 2023.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

On March 21, 2022, the Company granted 1,600,000 stock options to officers and directors of the Company. The fair value of the options was determined to be $139,200 using the Black Scholes model. The options are exercisable on or before March 21, 2027 and have an exercise price of $0.09. The options were fully vested upon grant and the entire fair value was recognized as compensation expense during the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

None.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures

Pursuant to Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the "Dodd-Frank Act"), issuers that are operators, or that have a subsidiary that is an operator, of a coal or other mine in the United States are required to disclose in their periodic reports filed with the SEC information regarding specified health and safety violations, orders and citations, related assessments and legal actions, and mining-related fatalities.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2023, the Company did not have any operating mines and therefore had no such specified health and safety violations, orders or citations, related assessments or legal actions, mining-related fatalities, or similar events in relation to the Company's United States operations requiring disclosure pursuant to Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act.

Item 5. Other Information
