Each unit consisted of one common share and one-half share purchase warrant exercisable at C$0.75 each and exercisable for a period of two years. The note was secured by a First Deed of Trust on the Cosgrave property land and water rights.
In June 2013 the Company returned, to the note holder, the Cosgrave Ranch for the value of the promissory note thereby extinguishing this debt. (Note 5)

Promissory Notes related to continuing operations
On June 24, 2014, the Company completed a $2,500,000 loan financing which includes a convertible feature. The loan has a maturity date of December 24, 2015 and bears loan interest that increases in quarterly increments from 4% to a maximum of 12%. The full loan can be converted into an effective 20% JV interest in Nyngan and Honeybugle. This conversion features can convert at the lender’s option or once EMC raises $3,000,000 million in equity. The 20% JV partner has a carried interest until EMC meets two milestones: (1) filing a feasibility study on SEDAR, and (2) receiving a mining license on either JV property. The JV partner becomes fully participating on development and build costs thereafter. The JV partner holds an option to convert their 20% JV interest into equivalent value of EMC shares, at market prices, rather than participate in construction. The JV partner’s option to convert its project interest to EMC shares is a one-time option, at such time the partner becomes fully participating on project costs. If the Company is unable to raise $3,000,000 and repay the loan, the lender may exercise a purchase option wherein the debt will be settled in exchange for 100% interest in the Nyngan mineral rights.

On June 24, 2013 the Company completed a $1,204,875 financing consisting of a series of insider and non-insider loans. The loans had a maturity date in June 2014 and bore interest at 10% per annum. The loans were secured by the ownership interest the Company has or earns in the Nyngan Scandium Project. As an inducement to enter into this loan, the lenders received a royalty of 0.2% of average scandium sales value, produced from the Nyngan property, on the first 100 tonnes of scandium oxide product produced and sold. The royalty was capped at $370,000 and EMC retained a right to buy back the royalty from the lenders or their assigns for $325,000 at any time up to the commencement of first production, or three years from loan date, whichever occurs first. This financing was paid in full of June 2014.

| During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company completed a $3,000,000 loan financing which included a $1,000,000 note payable bearing interest of 7% per annum maturing August 15, 2013. Presented is this principle balance, less financing and costs, which are amortized over the term of the debt using the effective interest method. This resulted in a carrying costs of $831,841 upon deducting a debt discount of $168,159 from the principal balance of $1,000,000. During fiscal 2013, the Company recognized $69,313 in accretion through interest expense. During fiscal 2012, the Company recognized $98,847 in accretion through interest expense. The note payable was secured by an interest in the Company’s subsidiary, Springer Mining Company. The financing was repaid in full on September 13, 2013. |

Q3 2014 vs. Q3 2013 - Variance Analysis
|
||
|
Item
|
Variance Favourable / (Unfavourable)
|
Explanation
|
|
Loss from discontinued operations
|
$21,693,164
|
The Company’s results from one year ago included a write-down of assets on the sale of the Springer mine in the second half of 2013.
|
|
Interest expense
|
$130,722
|
The Company reduced its debt load from one year ago with the sale of the Springer operations in the second half of 2013. The lower debt resulted in lower interest costs in the current quarter.
|
|
General and administrative
|
$58,062
|
$59,500 of this favorable variance is the result of certain accruals for salary in 2013 being renegotiated to much lower costs in 2014. Without consideration of the renegotiated salaries, the actual variance is $(1,438), bringing the costs in line for the two quarters.
|
|
Amortization
|
$117
|
Lower amortization is reflective of the fact that the assets held in our Sparks office are declining in value.
|
|
Insurance
|
$(11)
|
Costs for the comparative periods are almost identical.
|
|
Travel and entertainment
|
$(10,620)
|
In 2014 travel to Australia to work on the Nyngan project resulted in the higher costs when compared to 2013.
|
|
Salaries and benefits
|
$(11,445)
|
Increased salary expenses in Q3 2014 relate to the return of the CFO to a more active role in the Company when compared to one year ago.
|
|
Professional fees
|
$(15,978)
|
Unfavorable variance is due to legal fees incurred in association with June 2014 loan financing transaction. No such costs were incurred in Q2 2013.
|
|
Consulting
|
$(29,475)
|
In Q3 2013, certain consulting costs carried in the books of EMC were reallocated to Springer Mining Company, resulting in a credit balance in that period. This variance is favorable when the costs associated with the sale of Springer are taken into consideration.
|
|
Foreign exchange loss
|
$(43,369)
|
In Q3 2013, the Canadian dollar weakened against the US dollar making those assets held in Canadian dollars worth less when converted to US$. In Q3 2014 the Canadian dollar weakened to a greater extent resulting in funds held in Canadian dollars being devalued.
|
|
Exploration
|
$(220,454)
|
In Q3 2013, very little exploration took place as the Company was making every effort to conserve cash. With a new financing agreement in place during June 2014 and private placements in Q2 and Q3 of 2014, the Company increased work effort on the Nyngan project in Australia.
|
|
Stock-based compensation
|
$(269,239)
|
The Company issued stock options in Q3 of 2014 of which 72% vested immediately and resulted in an expense of $272,292. In 2013, a lower number of options were granted during the quarter, resulting in a lower option expense.
|
|
Nine months ending September 30, 2014 vs. nine months ending September 30, 2013 - Variance Analysis
|
||
|
Item
|
Variance Favourable / (Unfavourable)
|
Explanation
|
|
Loss from discontinued operations
|
$21,889,561
|
The Company’s results from one year ago included a write-down of asset value on the sale of the Springer mine in the second half of 2013.
|
|
Interest expense
|
$377,762
|
In 2013, the Company was making interest payments on the loan taken out in February of 2012. This loan matured in August 2013 and the sale of the Springer operation was used to extinguish that debt. Smaller financings were taken subsequent which has resulted in lower financing costs.
|
|
General and administrative
|
$90,178
|
Lower overall activity in 2014 as well as a renegotiation of accrued costs has resulted in this favorable variance.
|
|
Salaries and benefits
|
$82,135
|
Decreased salary expenses in 2014 are as a result of the Company’s decision to forgo salaries for key executives in an effort to conserve capital
.
|
|
Consulting
|
$39,178
|
Consulting in the pursuit of the Springer mine and mill sale
in 2013 resulted in the higher consulting costs when compared to 2014. No such costs were incurred in 2014.
|
|
Exploration
|
$35,270
|
In 2014, the Company carried out a small exploration program at its Honeybugle operation and began work on the Nyngan project resulting in costs of $292,763. In the prior year funds were expended to secure the Nyngan project in Australia resulting in the cost differential between the two comparative periods.
|
|
Insurance
|
$8,016
|
In 2014, the Company received a refund on workers compensation premiums charged in the prior year. This adjustment resulted in current charges being lower than in 2013.
|
|
Amortization
|
$349
|
Lower amortization is reflective of the fact that the assets held in our Sparks office are declining in value.
|
|
Travel and entertainment
|
$(9,344)
|
In 2014, travel to Australia to work on the Nyngan project resulted in the higher costs when compared to 2013.
|
|
Professional fees
|
$(20,849)
|
Unfavorable variance is due to legal fees incurred in association with June 2014 loan financing transaction. No such costs were incurred in Q2 2013.
|
|
Foreign exchange loss
|
$(67,028)
|
In 2013, the Canadian dollar strengthened against the US dollar making those assets held in Canadian dollars worth more when converted to US$. In 2014 there was weakening against the US dollar making the bank deposits held in Canadian funds lower in value.
|
|
Stock-based compensation
|
$(206,209)
|
The Company issued stock options in Q3 2014 of which 72% vested immediately and resulted in an expense of $272,292. In 2013, a lesser number of options were granted resulting in a lower option expense.
