Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Business Operations


Business Operations


Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. (“Thunder Mountain” 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.


Basis of Presentation and Going Concern


The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, as well as the instructions to the Form 10-Q. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements have been included. Operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2015. For further information refer to the financial statements and the footnotes thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company is an exploration stage company and has historically incurred losses and does not have sufficient cash at June 30, 2015 to fund normal operations for the next 12 months. The Company has no recurring source of revenue and its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise capital to fund its future exploration and working capital requirements. The Company’s plans for the long-term return to and continuation as a going concern include financing the Company’s future operations through sales of its common stock and/or debt and the eventual profitable exploitation of its mining properties. Additionally, the current capital markets and general economic conditions in the United States are significant obstacles to raising the required funds. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is currently investigating a number of alternatives for raising additional capital with potential investors, lessees and joint venture partners.


The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. If the going concern basis was not appropriate for these financial statements, adjustments would be necessary in the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses and the balance sheet classifications used.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Business Operations, continued:


Accounting Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 claims, environmental remediation liabilities, deferred tax assets, stock options granted and the fair value of financial and derivative instruments. 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.


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.


Investments in Joint Venture


The Company’s accounting policy for joint ventures is as follows:


1.

The Company uses the cost method when it does not have joint control or significant influence in a joint venture. Under the cost method, these investments are carried at cost. If other than temporary impairment in value is determined, it would then be charged to current net income or loss.


2.

If the Company enters into a joint venture in which there is joint control between the parties or the Company has significant influence, the equity method is utilized whereby the Company’s share of the ventures’ earnings and losses is included in the statement of operations as earnings in joint ventures and its investments therein are adjusted by a similar amount. If other than temporary impairment in value is determined, it would then be charged to current net income or loss.


3.

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’s management committee.


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 statement of operations over the vesting period.  


Net Income (Loss) Per Share


The Company is required to have dual presentation of basic earnings per share (“EPS”) and diluted EPS.  Basic EPS is computed as net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the effect of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, including warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Business Operations, continued:


As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, the remaining potentially dilutive common stock equivalents not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive are:

Reclassifications


Certain reclassifications have been made to conform data from prior periods to the current presentation.  These reclassifications have no effect on the results of operations or stockholders’ equity.


2.

Commitments


On March 21, 2011, the Company signed an exploration agreement with Newmont Mining Corporation (“Newmont”) on the Trout Creek Project that significantly expands the Trout Creek target area. Newmont’s private mineral package added to the Project surrounds the Company’s South Mountain claim group and consists of about 9,565 acres within a thirty-square mile Area of Influence defined in the agreement.  Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is responsible for conducting the exploration program and is obligated to expend a minimum of $150,000 over the ensuing two years, with additional expenditures possible in future years.  In late 2014, Newmont agreed to extend the date for completion of the work commitment, and is redrafting the agreement to allow the Company additional time to conduct the exploration.  


3.  

South Mountain Project LLC

On November 8, 2012, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary South Mountain Mines, Inc., (“SMMI”), and Idaho State Gold Company II, LLC (“ISGC”) formed the Owyhee Gold Trust, LLC, (“OGT”) a limited liability company.

ISGC resigned as Manager and SMMI was inserted as Manager of the OGT as of January 27, 2015 by unanimous vote of Management Committee meeting, under the terms of the operating agreement. Beginning on that date, SMMI began paying OGT’s expenses to ensure ongoing operations at the site.  Accordingly, there is a possible loss contingency or financial impairment from the ongoing default by ISGC.  The parties continue to engage in discussions as to possible courses of agreement and cure. Due to ongoing discussions with ISGC over the future of the venture, the Company decided to recognize these payments as its own expenses because it is not clear whether SMMI will be reimbursed by OGT.


During the six months ending June 30, 2015, the Company has recognized expenses of $293,108 it has paid on behalf of OGT. Included in the total expenditures is $118,000 of payroll costs incurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2015. These costs are for management of OGT including Eric Jones (Chief Executive Officer), Jim Collord (Chief Operating Officer), and Larry Thackery (Chief Financial Officer). Payment of the salaries has been deferred until a later date.

Convertible Notes Payable


On December 9, 2014 the Company executed two promissory notes payable to directors, Eric Jones and Jim Collard. The amount of the notes was $25,000 each for a total of $50,000, and identical in terms. The interest rate on these notes is 10% per month of the principal balance. The notes were due in full no later than July 1, 2015, and had a minimum amount due if the notes are paid back earlier (See Note 7). Interest expense recorded in connection with these notes was $29,696 during the six months ended June 30, 2015.


The convertible notes contained a beneficial conversion feature of $13,492 which was recognized as a discount on the notes on the date of issuance. The discount was amortized over the note term using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded the full amount of $13,492 in interest expense related to the amortization of the discount.



5.

Stockholders’ Equity


The Company’s common stock has a par value of $0.001 with 200,000,000 shares authorized. The Company also has 5,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001.


On October 3, 2013, the Board of Directors approved a Private Placement financing of up to 5,000,000 units of the Company (“Unit”) at a price of $0.05 per Unit for gross proceeds of up to $250,000.  Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock and one-half of one common share purchase warrant.  Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional share of common stock of the Company at a price of $0.15 for a period of 18 months.  


Pursuant to a Selling Agreement, the Selling Agent was entitled to compensation in the following form: (a) a cash commission equal to 10% of the price of the Units sold; (b) an additional cash commission of 10% of gross proceeds received from the exercise of Warrants issued as part of such Units or any other equity investment made by investors introduced by the Agent within a 24 month period following closing; and (c) non-transferable broker warrants to purchase a number of additional Units equal to 5% of Units sold by the Agent in the initial offering.


The Agent Warrants have the same exercise price and terms as the Warrants.  Through December 31, 2014, 15,000 agent warrants have been issued, and $1,500 in commissions were paid based on the sale of 300,000 shares.


Through December 31, 2014 the Company received $460,000 in gross proceeds from the Private Placement, issuing a total 9,240,000 in common stock and 4,620,000 common stock purchase warrants.


For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company received $417,000 in gross proceeds, issued 8,340,000 in shares of common stock and 4,170,000 common stock purchase warrants.


During 2014, the Company awarded 300,000 in common shares and 150,000 common stock purchase warrants, in lieu of $15,000 cash for Professional services, legal and accounting.


Pixellight of Boise, Idaho developed photos to be used in advertising and brochures by Thunder Mountain Gold. On October 1, 2014, in lieu of payment on account of $3,000, Pixellight elected to participate in the private placement, and received 60,000 common shares and 30,000 common stock purchase warrants.    


On February 28, 2015, the Company entered into a subscription agreement with a two individuals whereby the Company sold 4,000,000 shares at US $0.05 per share. There were no warrants associated with the subscriptions. As of March 15, 2015, the Company has issued the 4,000,000 shares under this agreement raising $250,000, and the placement is closed.

Stock Options


The Company has established a Stock Option Incentive Plan (“SIP”) to authorize the granting of stock options up to 10 percent of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock to employees, directors and consultants. Upon exercise of options, shares are issued from the available authorized shares of the Company.


Option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s stock at the date of grant. 


On February 6, 2015, the Board approved a grant of one million options to purchase shares of common stock under the SIP to Directors, Executive Officers and other non-employees consultants. The granted options have been valued and recorded using the Black Scholes model. The Black Scholes calculation on the 1,000,000 options that were issued was a fair value of $0.06 per option ($60,000 in total). The option certificates reflected the actual date of the issuance of February 6, 2015.  The SIP was approved by shareholder vote during the January 20, 2015 annual shareholder meeting. The options were fully vested and recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2015.


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


Stock price

$           0.06

Exercise price

Expected volatility

224.20%

The following is a summary of the Company’s options issued under the Stock Option Incentive Plan;

The average remaining contractual term of the options outstanding and exercisable at June 30, 2015 was 2.997 years.  As of June 30, 2015 options outstanding and exercisable had no aggregate intrinsic value.

Subsequent Events


On July 1, 2015 when the convertible notes payable (see Note 4) became due and payable.  Eric Jones and Jim Collord extended their notes six months maturing December 31, 2015.  The Company converted accrued interest payable of $33,616 to principal in accordance with the extension agreement bringing the balance of each note to $41,808 on July 1, 2015 (total of $83,616).

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’s financial position remained unchanged during the first quarter of 2015 and the metals commodity markets were mostly unchanged during the year.  Equity markets will likely open up periodically in response to favorable price movements in certain metals during 2015, providing some companies with the opportunity to take advantage of short periods of positive sentiment in the market. However, until markets provide more favorable metal prices, equity financing in the mining industry will remain challenging. Analyst estimates for 2015 are for volatile metals markets, with a positive outlook for future years.


The Company continued to operate on a limited budget in 2015 while they seek additional financing for the South Mountain Mine. Due to ISGC`s choice not to continue with management of the South Mountain Project, SMMI was inserted as Manager of the OGT LLC as of Jan. 27th, 2015 by way of Management Committee meeting.  The parties are currently in discussions to determine the best path forward for advancing the mine.


The Company’s plan of operation for the next twelve months, subject to business conditions, will be to continue to advance the development at the South Mountain Project.  This work may include the following:


·

Finish the rehabilitation of the Laxey and Sonneman drifts, utilizing a mining contractor to conduct the mine development.  

·

Initiate a drill program of between 20,000 to 30,000 feet of underground core drilling, mostly from the Sonneman level, at drill stations engineered to further define the mineralization on the up-dip and down-dip extensions of the historic Texas, DMEA-2, and Laxey ore zones.

·

Continued baseline environmental work.


Although the South Mountain Project will still remain the focus, the Company will continue exploration and advancement of the Trout Creek Project in 2015, with the following planned scope of work:


·

Drill pre-defined drill target on the Joint Exploration area with Newmont Mining.

·

Analyze the drill data, and prepare for further exploration in the 2015/2016 seasons.

·

Continue geophysical interpretation of the valley area. Define potential drill targets and develop additional drill targets for remaining field season of 2015.



South Mountain Project, Owyhee County, Idaho


The land package at South Mountain consists of a total of approximately 1,518 acres, consisting of (i) 17 patented claims (326 acres) and 360 acres of private land; (ii) lease on private ranch land (542 acres); and, (iii)  21 unpatented lode mining claims on BLM managed land (290 acres).  All holdings are located in the South Mountain Mining District, Owyhee County, Idaho.

The property is located approximately 70 air miles southwest of Boise, Idaho and approximately 24 miles southeast of Jordan Valley, Oregon. It is accessible by highway 95 driving south from the Boise area to Jordan Valley Oregon, then by traveling southeast approximately 22 miles back into Idaho, via Owyhee County road that is dirt and improved to within 4 miles of historic mine site. The last 4 miles up the South Mountain Mine road are unimproved dirt road. The property is accessible year-round to within 4 miles of the property, where the property is accessible from May thru October without plowing snow. There is power to within 4 miles of the site as well. The climate is considered high desert. The Company has water rights on the property, and there is a potable spring on the property that once supplied water to the main camp.


During the rehabilitation of the Sonneman Drift during 2012-2013 several massive sulfide mineralized zones were mined through.  Detailed rib sampling along some of these zones yielded the following results:

Other Underground Pre-Development Work


The rehabilitation of the Sonneman and Laxey drifts continued successfully until January 2014, when the Project went into care and maintenance.  The Sonneman Level advanced 2,711 feet from the portal and is constructed to 12 feet X 12 feet for future development and mining. There is approximately 350 feet of engineered drift to construct in order to reach the historic Texas ore zone located at the end of the old workings.  This advance to and through this zone will allow for drill stations and underground drilling to further define the high-grade resource encountered by William Bowes group in the 1980s.


The historic 2,200-foot long Laxey Level drift has been rehabilitated to 10 feet by 10 feet for a distance of approximately 720 feet.  At that point the old tunnel had recently collapsed in at an intrusive dike and preparations were being made to advance through the caved area.  This old tunnel was rehabilitated and accessed along its full length in 2008, at which point it intercepted the historic Texas ore zone, one of many that had limited exploration and development during and after the World War II period.  Profound high grade massive sulfide is exposed in this area, and the surface drilling during 2013 helped confirm its continuity between the Laxey Level and the surface, an up-dip distance of nearly 400 feet.


2013 Core Drilling Program


The surface drilling program was completed in November, 2013.  Twelve core holes totaling 7,535.5 feet were drilled and targeted three separate ore shoots:


1.

Seven holes targeted the historic Texas Ore Zone from the surface to the Laxey Level, and between the Laxey and Sonneman Levels.  The continuity of sulfide mineralization was confirmed and the surface to Laxey Level offers an upside to the ore shoot that has never been explored.  Additional drilling, primarily from underground, will be necessary to move this into a reserve category.

Long section looking north showing the Laxey and Sonneman tunnels and locations of some of the core drill holes.


2.

Three holes were drilled to test the DMEA 2 Ore Shoot between the two levels.  The best hole, DMEA13-09, intercepted 15 feet of massive sulfide with a grade of 0.22 opt gold, 2.67 opt silver, 20.2% zinc, 0.27% copper and 0.35% lead.


3.

Two holes tested the down dip extension of the ore shoot mined during World War II from the 800-foot deep Laxey Shaft.  Encouraging mineralization was intercepted in both holes, with the best being LX13-11 that cut 34 feet of sulfide grading 0.004 opt gold, 4.41 opt silver and 7.18% zinc.


A detailed underground fan drilling program commenced as soon as the surface drilling program was completed.  Drilling on the historic DMEA 2 and Texas Ore zones were planned in order to define a mineable resource, but unfortunately the program was terminated after the first four holes were drilled in the DMEA 2 down dip target.  The results of the drilling are summarized below on the following page:

Results from the first drill fan testing the down dip extension of the historic DMEA ore zones.


This drilling confirms and enhances the DMEA 2 and DMEA 3 massive sulfide zone mined during the rehabilitation of the Sonneman Drift.  (The rib sample results from these zones are reported above.)  There is some indication that the two or three zones may be coalescing with depth.  Additional fans are planned, but were put on hold due to lack of funding.


The advance of the Sonneman Level tunnel was stopped about 300 feet short of the primary target, the Texas Ore Shoot.  The caved older tunnel built by Bowes around 1980 intercepted approximately 70 feet of sulfide grading 0.26 opt gold, 7.42 opt silver, 14.0% zinc, 3.7% lead and 0.16% copper.  Once the new tunnel advances and drill stations construction, fan drilling is planned to test the up and down dip of this attractive zone.


Management remains encouraged by results of the underground pre-development work completed to date. The South Mountain Model continues to prove that the continuation of the replacement sulfide mineralized ore shoots at depth.  Detailed follow-up core drilling will be needed to better define the quality and quantity of the historic ore zones at depth.


Other work on the Project included access road work, infrastructure facilities and some environmental remediation.  A 440-foot 48-inch culvert was constructed for protection so that Williams Creek would flow beneath the waste rock without contacting the mine workings.  


Status of the Operating Agreement with Idaho State Gold Company (ISGC II)


On November 8, 2012, the Company and Idaho State Gold Company II LLC (“ISGC”) formed Owyhee Gold Trust, LLC, (“OGT”) a limited liability Corporation.  Details of this Agreement were filed by Form 8K on November 9, 2012. Currently, the project is in a care and maintenance status while new capital is sought. There is a possible loss contingency or financial impairment from the ongoing default by ISGC, as the parties continue to engage in discussions as to possible courses of agreement and cure. The Company remains very positive on commencing with development, with expectations that metals markets will strengthen in the coming months.


Property History


The limited historic production peaked during World War II when, based on smelter receipts, the production of direct shipped ore totaled 53,653 tons containing 3,118 ounces of gold, 566,439 ounces of silver, 13,932 pounds of copper, 2,562,318 pounds of lead and 15,593,061 pounds of zinc.  In addition to the direct-ship ore, a flotation mill was constructed and operated during the late-1940s and early-1950s.

South Mountain Mines Inc. controlled the patented claims from 1975 to the time the Company purchased the entity in 2007. They conducted extensive exploration work including extending the Sonneman Level by approximately 1,500 feet to intercept the down-dip extension of the Texas sulfide mineralization mined on the Laxey Level some 300 feet above the Sonneman.  High grade sulfide mineralization was intercepted on the Sonneman Extension.  In 1985 they did a feasibility study based on polygonal ore blocks exposed in the underground workings and drilling.  This resulted in a historic resource of approximately 470,000 tons containing 23,500 ounces of gold, 3,530,000 ounces of silver, 8,339,000 pounds of copper, 13,157,000 pounds of lead and 91,817,000 lbs of zinc. Although they determined positive economics, the project was shut down and placed into care and maintenance.


In 2008, the Company engaged Kleinfelder, Inc., a nationwide engineering and consulting firm, to complete a technical report “Resources Data Evaluation, South Mountain Property, South Mountain Mining District, Owyhee County, Idaho”. The technical report was commissioned by Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc. to evaluate all the existing data available on the South Mountain property.  Kleinfelder utilized a panel modeling method using this data to determine potential mineralized material remaining and to make a comparison with the resource determined by South Mountain Mines in the mid-1980s.  


Additional drilling and sampling will be necessary before the resource can be classified as a mineable reserve, but Kleinfelder’s calculations provided a potential resource number that is consistent with South Mountain Mines’ (Bowes 1985) reserve model.


Late in 2009, the Company contracted with Northwestern Groundwater & Geology to incorporate all the new drill and sampling data into an NI 43-101 Technical Report.  This report was completed as part of the Company’s dual listing on the TSX Venture Exchange in 2010.  The NI 43-101 can be reviewed on the Company`s website at www.thundermountaingold.com, or on www.SEDAR.com.


Gold Breccia Area


No additional work has been completed on the multi-lithic intrusive breccia outcrop that was identified and sampled in 2008 on property leased by the Company.  An extensive ground magnetic survey consisting of approximately 81 line miles was completed over the project area by Jim Wright Geophysics and was designed to tie the sediment hosted mineralization with the Gold Breccia Zone.  Additional geophysics will be justified and will consist of deep penetrating induced polarization work.


This large area (approximately one mile long and one-half a mile wide) is located several thousand feet south of the main mine area.  The intrusive breccia is composed of rounded to sub-rounded fragments of altered intrusive rock and silicified fragments of altered schist and marble.  Initial rock chip samples from the outcrop area ranged from 0.49 ppm to 1.70 ppm gold, and follow-up outcrop and float sampling in 2009 yielded gold values ranging from 0.047 ppm to 5.81 ppm.  A first pass orientation soil survey completed in 2008 was conducted near the “discovery’ breccia outcrop at a spacing of 100 feet over a distance of 800 feet east/west and 1,000 feet north/south.  The soil assays ranged from a trace to 0.31 ppm Gold.  Surface mapping indicates that the intrusive breccia covers an area of approximately 5,000 feet x 1,500 feet.

Table of Contents



Management believes that the “first-pass” drill results from the intrusive breccia drilling proves the existence of a significant gold system in an intrusive package that is related to the polymetallic mineralization in the carbonate in the historic mine area.  An IP survey is planned to isolate potential feeder structures and to evaluate the contact between the metasediments and the gold-bearing intrusive.


Qualified Person – Edward D. Fields is the Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 responsible for the technical data reported in this news release.


This property is without known reserves and the proposed program is exploratory in nature according to Instruction 3 to paragraph (b)(5) of Industry Guide 7.

An extensive data package was made available by Newmont to Thunder Mountain Gold, and follow-up fieldwork was undertaken once the agreement was finalized.  This fieldwork consisted of mapping the altered and mineralized structures that can be followed through the Shoshone Range.  Of importance is that these structures align with the Cortez-Pipeline deposits and the Phoenix deposit (part of the Eureka-Battle Mountain-Getchell Trend).  


In addition to the geologic fieldwork, Wright Geophysics 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 a reasonable depth for exploration drilling and potential mining if a significant mineralization is encountered.

Table of Contents



Lack of an adequate budget prevented drilling during 2014, but Newmont and the Company are currently amending the agreement to allow for a modified work commitment and timeframe.  It is anticipated that funding will be available during the latter part of the 2015 season, and one or two reverse circulation holes can test the bedrock beneath the gravel along the mineralized structures.


The Trout Creek target is based on 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 using a ground magnetometer. The target is covered by alluvial fan deposits of 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. The geophysical anomaly could define a prospective and unexplored target within a well mineralized region.


The ongoing exploration field work, including claim maintenance and assessment, is financed by the Company through sales of unregistered common stock funded by the Company through private placements with accredited investors.  Future work will be funded in the same manner or through a strategic partnership with another mining company.  The Company is attempting to consolidate the land package to cover a larger area of the positive geophysical target in the pediment by acquiring and/or joint venturing adjoining mineral property.


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.  This property is without known reserves and the proposed program is exploratory in nature according to Instruction 3 to paragraph (b)(5) of Industry Guide 7.


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.


Results of Operations:


The Company had no revenues and no production for the quarter ending June 30, 2015. Total expenses for the six months ending June 30, 2015 increased from the same respective time frame ending 2014 by $253,159, up 183% in total expenses of $391,585. Exploration expenses for the six months ending June 30, 2015, increased by $63,017, when compared to the same period in 2014. Legal and accounting fees slightly increased from 2014 by the amount of $5,843 for a total of legal and accounting expenses of $96,644. Management and administrative expense increased $184,299 or 490%, for a total expense of $221,906. The increase in expenses is due to ongoing discussions with ISGC over the future of the OGT venture, the Company decided to maintain the cost, of the venture, as its own expenses because it is not clear whether SMMI will be reimbursed by OGT.   During the six months ending June 30, 2015, the Company has recognized expenses of $293,108 it has paid on behalf of OGT. Included in the total expenditures is $118,000 of deferred payroll costs incurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2015.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:


The consolidated financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2015, have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Such assumption contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing as may be required, or ultimately to attain profitability. Potential sources of cash, or relief of demand for cash, include additional external debt, the sale of shares of our stock or alternative methods such as mergers or sale of our assets. No assurances can be given, however, that we will be able to obtain any of these potential sources of cash. We currently require additional cash funding from outside sources to sustain existing operations and to meet current obligations and ongoing capital requirements.


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. Our plans may also, at some future point, include the formation of mining joint ventures with senior mining company partners on specific mineral properties whereby the joint venture partner would provide the necessary financing in return for equity in the property.

 

The Company`s management is confident that the continued operations of Thunder Mountain Gold can be assured by the following:


·

At June 30, 2015, we had $63,528 cash in our bank accounts.

·

Management and the Board have not undertaken plans or commitments that exceed the cash available to the Company.  We do not include in this consideration any additional investment funds mentioned below. Management is committed to manage expenses of all types so as to not exceed the on-hand cash resources of the Company at any point in time, now or in the future.

We firmly believe we can outlast the current disruptions in the investment markets and continue to attract investment dollars in coming months and years.  The Company will also consider other sources of funding, including potential mergers and/or additional farm-out of some of its exploration properties.


For the six months ended June 30, 2015, net cash used for operating activities was $218,464, consisting of our  net loss of $432,922, reduced by non-cash expenses and net cash provided by changes in current assets and current liabilities. There was no cash provided by investing activities for the quarter.


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 money to complete our exploration programs, we will try to raise additional funds from a second public offering, a private placement, mergers, farm-outs or loans.


We know that 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.

On October 3, 2013, the Board of Directors approved a Private Placement financing of up to 5,000,000 units of the Company (“Unit”) at a price of $0.05 per Unit for gross proceeds of up to $250,000.  Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock and one-half of one common share purchase warrant.  Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional share of common stock of the Company at a price of $0.15 for a period of 18 months. The Placement was closed on November 24, 2014, with an oversubscription of 5,000,000 units, for a total of 10,000,000 units sold for gross proceeds of $500,000.

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.

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.
