1.	BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Organization and Nature of Operations

Lode-Star Mining Inc. (formerly International Gold Corp.) (“the Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada, U.S.A., on December 9, 2004. The Company’s principal executive offices are located in Cypress, Texas. The Company was originally formed for the purpose of acquiring exploration stage natural resource properties. The Company acquired a mineral property interest from Lode Star Gold Inc., a private Nevada corporation (“LSG”) on December 11, 2014 (See Note 3) in consideration for the issuance of 35,000,000 common shares of the Company. As a result of this transaction, control of the Company was acquired by LSG.

On May 12, 2015, International Gold Corp. completed a merger with its wholly owned subsidiary, Lode-Star Mining Inc., and formally assumed the subsidiary’s name by filing Articles of Merger with the Nevada Secretary of State (the “Name Change”). The subsidiary was incorporated entirely for the purpose of effecting the Name Change and the merger did not affect the Company’s corporate structure in any other way.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.

The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to establish a business and to obtain new financing to execute a business plan. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred accumulated losses of $1,620,904 for the period from December 9, 2004 (inception) to September 30, 2016, and has had no revenue. There is no assurance that management’s plans to seek additional capital through private placements of its common stock will be realized, and these factors cast substantial doubt upon the use of the going concern assumption. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited financial information furnished herein reflects all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to fairly state the Company’s financial position and the results of its operations for the periods presented. These third quarter financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The Company assumes that the users of the interim financial information herein have read, or have access to, the audited financial statements for the preceding fiscal year, and that the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation may be determined in that context. Accordingly, footnote disclosure, which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, has been omitted. The results of operations for the nine month period ended September 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year ending December 31, 2016.

Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications on the interim statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 had no effect on the reported results of operations. Expenses paid by related parties on behalf of the Company were removed from the net change in loan advances and from the change in accounts payable and are shown as a Non-cash Financing Activity. The foreign exchange gain component of the change in loan advances was removed and shown as an adjustment to reconcile net loss to net cash used in operating activities. Accrued interest that was converted to shares has been removed from the change in loan advances and included in the change in accrued interest. The remaining change in loan advances was separated into repayments of loans payable to non-related parties and loan proceeds from related parties. These changes in classification decreased the amount previously reported as Cash Used In Operating Activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 from $174,020 to $132,798. Offsetting that change, the amount previously reported for the 2015 period as Cash Provided By Financing Activities decreased from $179,648 to $138,426.

2.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of estimates which have been made using careful judgment. All dollar amounts are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted. The financial statements have, in management’s opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality.

The Company has implemented all applicable new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. Those pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

3.	MINERAL PROPERTY INTEREST

Given that permitting for operations on the Property is still to be completed, at the request of the Company’s management, LSG granted a deferment to January 18, 2017 of payments otherwise due in accordance with the Mineral Option Agreement between the parties. At September 30, 2016, $198,901 was accrued for fees due under the terms of the agreement.

The Company assessed its mineral property interest at September 30, 2016 and to the date of these financial statements and concluded that facts and circumstances do not suggest that the mineral property interest’s carrying value exceeds its recoverable amount and therefore no impairment is required.

4.	CAPITAL STOCK

During the nine months ended September, 2016, the Company had no cash subscriptions for shares of its common stock. No preferred shares have been issued to the date of issue of these financial statements.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this report. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results

Mineral Property Interest

On August 29, 2014, we entered into a Letter of Intent (the “LSG LOI”) with Lode-Star Gold, Inc. (“LSG"), a private Nevada corporation, pursuant to which we agreed to issue shares of our common stock and make certain payments to LSG in consideration for the acquisition of an interest in LSG's Nevada Goldfield Bonanza property (the “Property”). As a result of the intended transaction, control of us would be acquired by LSG.

On October 4, 2014, we entered into a definitive mineral option agreement (the "Option Agreement") which superseded the LSG LOI. Pursuant to the Option Agreement, we were to issue LSG 35,000,000 shares of our common stock in exchange for a 20% undivided interest in the Property (the “Acquisition”). In order to earn an additional 60% undivided interest in the Property (for a total of 80%), we are required to fund all expenditures on the Property and pay LSG an aggregate of $5 million in cash in the form of a net smelter returns ("NSR") royalty, each beginning on the closing date of a subscription agreement for the shares (the “Closing Date”). Until such time as ITGC has earned the additional 60% interest, the NSR royalty will be split as to 79.2% to LSG, 19.8% to and 1% to the former Property owner.

The Property is located in west-central Nevada, in the Goldfield Mining District at Latitude 37° 42’, and Longitude 117° 14’. The claims comprising the Property are located in surveyed sections 35 and 36, Township 2 South, Range 42 East, and in sections 1, 2, 11, and 12, Township 3 South, Range 42 East, in Esmeralda County, Nevada. The Property is accessible by traveling approximately one-half mile northeast of the community of Goldfield, along a county-maintained road that originates at U.S. Highway 95, which runs through “downtown” Goldfield. The town of Goldfield, which is the Esmeralda county seat (population 300), is approximately 200 air miles south of Reno and 180 air miles north of Las Vegas.

The Property consists of 31 patented claims and 1 unpatented millsite claim, covering a total of approximately 460 acres, or 186 hectares. Only the single unpatented claim is administered by the United States Bureau of Land Management, and annual assessment filings and payments are due on it. The patented claims are owned as private land by LSG, and only annual property taxes must be paid.

Recent Developments

We are in the final stages of completing materials for filing our permit application. Additional activities for this quarter included general cleanup and housekeeping of the surface facilities in anticipation of submitting Notification of Commencement to both State of Nevada and MSHA agencies in order to reoccupy our mine workings.

Given that permitting for operations on the Property is still to be completed, at the request of our management, LSG granted, by a letter of agreement, a deferment to January 18, 2017 of payments totaling $198,901 due and accrued as of September 30, 2016 under the terms of the Option Agreement.

Personnel

We have no employees. Our president and CEO, Mark Walmesley, currently receives no compensation for his services. We expect to continue to use outside consultants, advisors, attorneys and accountants as necessary.

Our Chief Operating Officer, Thomas Temkin, who is also a director, is a Certified Professional Geologist and a Qualified Person under National Instrument (NI) 43101, with more than 38 years of experience in the mining industry, primarily in exploration in the Western United States. He is currently a consulting geologist working with LSG. Mr. Temkin has been associated with LSG and the Property for over 15 years and has been instrumental through its entire exploration program to date.

Our Corporate Secretary, Pam Walters, has been associated with the mining industry for over 25 years and has managed the corporate finance and business operations of LSG and its owners.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Plan of Operations

We anticipate that we will require approximately $2 million to pursue our plan of operations over 12 months, as detailed in previous quarterly filings.

Our primary focus is currently on the mine permitting process. We have retained the following specialists in underground permitting of narrow vein, high sulphide mines to assist in executing that permitting process:

· Rubicon Environmental Consulting to act as the lead consultant

· Hydrogeologica Inc. to consult on water and geology

· Tierra Group International to consult on mine planning and engineering

Unique to our permitting is the proposed underground area of work named the Red Hills Stope Zone. It is 150 feet above the 450 foot deep water table, making the mine essentially a dry mine.

The mine’s 300 foot level workings has pockets of unused volume where our potentially acid generating waste rock can be stored. This means no waste rock will come to the surface and LSM will avoid, for the short-term, the expense of having to build and maintain a surface storage facility.

We are hopeful that the two aforementioned mitigating circumstances will make our permitting process more rapid and therefore, the costs of execution and infrastructure improvements will be kept at a minimum.

Permitting costs are anticipated to be as follows:

Rubicon	$ 40,000
Hydrogeologica	$ 135,000
Tierra	$ 75,000
State / NDEP	$ 0
Total	$ 250,000

Funding

We do not currently have sufficient funds to carry out our entire plan of operations, so we intend to meet the balance of our cash requirements for the next 12 months through a combination of debt financing and equity financing through private placements. Currently we are active in contacting broker/dealers regarding possible financing arrangements; however, we do not currently have any arrangements in place to complete any private placement financings and there is no assurance that we will be successful in completing any such financings.

If we are unsuccessful in obtaining sufficient funds through our capital raising efforts, we may review other financing options, although we cannot provide any assurance that any such options will be available to us or on terms reasonably acceptable to us. Further, if we are unable to secure any additional financing then we plan to reduce the amount that we spend on our operations, including our management-related consulting fees and other general expenses, so as not to exceed the capital resources available to us. Regardless, our current cash reserves and working capital will not be sufficient for us to sustain our business for the next 12 months, even if we decide to scale back our operations.

Going Concern

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our expenses. This is because we have not generated any revenues to date and we cannot currently estimate the timing of any possible future revenues. Our only source for cash at this time is investments by others in our common stock, or loans.

Revenues

We have had no operating revenues since our inception on December 9, 2004. We recorded a net loss of $60,758 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 and have an accumulated deficit of $1,620,904. The possibility and timing of revenue being generated from our mineral property interest remains uncertain.

Expenses – Three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015

Notable period over period differences are as follows:

	Three Months Ended September 30		Change
	2016	2015	Amount	Percentage
Mineral option fees	$ 25,000	$ -	$ 25,000	-
Office, foreign exchange and sundry	$ 3,789	$ (2,306 )	$ 6,095	(264 %)
Transfer and filing fees	$ 5,074	$ 2,470	$ 2,604	105 %
Interest, bank and finance charges	$ 7,374	$ 5,544	$ 1,830	33 %

■

Mineral option fees were incurred in Q3 of 2016, but not in Q3 of 2015, under the terms of our Mineral Option Agreement with LSG. They first became due in Q4 of 2015.

■

Office, foreign exchange & sundry expenses were higher in Q3 of 2016 mainly due to increases in foreign exchange costs and travel necessitated by site visits and business development activity.

■

Transfer and filing fees were higher in Q3 of 2016 as the Company filed five reports with the SEC in that quarter, compared to one in Q3 of 2015.

■

Interest, bank and finance charges were higher in Q3 of 2016 mainly due to increased loan amounts. Interest-bearing loan balances totaled approximately $520,215 at September 30, 2016 compared to $367,635 at September 30, 2015.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Balance Sheet at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015

Items with notable period-end differences are as follows:

			Change
	September 30 2016	December 31 2015	Amount	Percentage
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities	$ 25,460	$ 14,302	$ 11,158	78 %
Due to related parties	$ 700,761	$ 495,384	$ 205,377	41 %
Loans payable	$ 66,088	$ 76,180	$ (10,092 )	(13 %)

■

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased mainly due to the accrual of approximately $20,000 for an IRS penalty in connection with the Company’s 2013 income tax filing, which was partly offset by a decrease of approximately $10,000 in accounting and legal fees due since the end of 2015. An identical IRS penalty for the Company’s 2012 tax year was waived and we are waiting for a determination of our appeal of the 2013 penalty.

■

The change in Due to Related parties was a result of increased related party loans and accrued interest in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 of approximately $130,000, together with the accrual of fees due under the terms of the Company’s mineral option agreement with LSG of approximately $75,000.

■

Loans payable decreased due to repayment of $15,000 in loan principal, partially offset by the accrual of interest totaling approximately $5,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2016, our total assets were $243,416, and our total liabilities were $792,309. Our working capital as at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 and the changes between those dates are summarized as follows:

	September 30	December 31	Increase/(Decrease)
	2016	2015	Amount	Percentage
Current Assets	$ 13,236	$ 15,673	$ (2,437 )	(16 %)
Current Liabilities	792,309	585,866	206,443	35 %
Working Capital (Deficiency)	$ (779,073 )	$ (570,193 )	$ (208,880 )	37 %

The increase in our working capital deficiency from December 31, 2015 to September 30, 2016 was primarily due to the increase in amounts due to related parties of approximately $205,000, which is explained above. The increase in accounts payable of approximately $11,000 was largely offset by the decrease in loans payable of approximately $10,000.

Cash Flows

	Nine Months Ended September 30		Change
	2016	2015	Amount	Percentage
Cash Provided By (Used In):
Operating Activities	$ (47,437 )	$ (132,798 )	$ 85,361	(64 %)
Financing Activities	45,000	138,426	(93,426 )	(67 %)
Net increase (decrease) in cash	$ (2,437 )	$ 5,628	$ (8,065 )	(143 %)

Cash Used In Operating Activities

The decrease in cash used in operating activities of approximately $85,000 was mainly due to the following:

An increase in net loss for the 2016 period compared to the 2015 period of approximately $88,000, offset by:

■

a change of approximately $5,000 from a foreign exchange gain in 2015 to a loss in 2016;

■

an increase of approximately $2,000 in Prepaid fees in the 2015 period , with no change in the 2016 period;

■

a difference of approximately $84,000 in the change in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in 2016 versus 2015;

■

accrued mineral option fees of approximately $75,000 for the nine month period in 2016, with none in the equivalent period in 2015; and

■

an increase of approximately $7,000 in the change in accrued interest, as interest-bearing loan balances increased.

Cash Provided By Financing Activities

The decrease of approximately $93,000 in cash provided by financing activities was due to repayment of loans being $11,000 higher in the 2016 period and direct loans from related parties increasing by $60,000 in 2016, compared to approximately $142,000 in the 2015 period, a net decrease of approximately $82,000.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

As of the date of this quarterly report, we have yet to generate any revenues from our business operations. Our ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet our needs is entirely dependent on the issuance of shares or loans.

Our principal source of working capital has been in the form of loans and subscriptions for our common stock. For the foreseeable future, we will have to continue to rely on those sources for funding. We have no assurance that we can successfully engage in any further private sales of our securities or that we can obtain any additional loans.
