Farellon Property

Farellon Alto Uno al Ocho Mineral Claims

On September 25, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with a related company to acquire, by assignment, the option to purchase the Farellon Alto Uno al Ocho mining claims located in the Commune of Freirina, Province of Huasco, III Region of Atacama, Chile. On April 25, 2008, the Company exercised the option to acquire the right to purchase the property by paying $550,000 to acquire the claims. The claims are subject to a 1.5% royalty on the net sales of minerals extracted from the property to a total of $600,000.  The royalty payments are due monthly once exploitation begins, and are subject to minimum payments of $1,000 per month.  The Company has no obligation to pay the royalty if it does not commence exploitation.  At April 30, 2010, the Company had spent a total of $550,539 on the acquisition of those claims.

Cecil Mineral Claims

On September 5, 2008, the Company paid $20,000 to acquire the Cecil mining claims.  The properties are located near the Farellon property in commune of Freirina, Province of Huasco, III Region of Atacama, Chile.  The acquisition of the Cecil properties was completed on September 17, 2008.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Forward-Looking Statements

This quarterly report on form 10-Q filed by Red Metal Resources Ltd. contains forward-looking statements.  These are statements regarding financial and operating performance and results and other statements that are not historical facts.  The words “expect,” “project,” “estimate,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “forecast,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.  Certain important risks could cause results to differ materially from those anticipated by some of the forward-looking statements.  Some, but not all, of these risks include, among other things:

  
general economic conditions, because they may affect our ability to raise money
  
our ability to raise enough money to continue our operations
  
changes in regulatory requirements that adversely affect our business
  
changes in the prices for minerals that adversely affect our business
  
political changes in Chile, which could affect our interests there
  
other uncertainties, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control

We caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect our management’s view only as of the date of this report.  We are not obligated to update these statements or publicly release the results of any revisions to them to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.  You should refer to and carefully review the information in future documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

General
 
You should read this discussion and analysis in conjunction with our interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this form 10-Q and the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our annual report on form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2010.  The inclusion of supplementary analytical and related information may require us to make estimates and assumptions to enable us to fairly present, in all material respects, our analysis of trends and expectations with respect to our results of operations and financial position taken as a whole.  Actual results may vary from the estimates and assumptions we make.
 
Overview
 
Red Metal is a mineral exploration company engaged in locating and, eventually, developing mineral resources in Chile. Our business strategy is to identify, acquire and explore prospective mineral claims with a view to either developing them ourselves or, more likely, finding a joint venture partner with the mining experience and financial means to undertake the development. All of our claims are in the Candelaria IOCG belt in the Chilean Coastal Cordillera.
 
We have no revenue-generating operations and are entirely dependent upon the equity markets for our working capital. The collapse of the equity markets late in 2008 and the economic uncertainty and market instability that followed and persist have affected our ability to raise equity capital despite the generally positive market prices of copper and gold in 2009 and 2010.
 
In response to the difficulty in raising equity capital, we have reduced our costs in Chile by abandoning certain mineral claims that we hadn’t the capital to maintain or explore; reduced our administration, travel and promotion costs; and even terminated our duty to file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission to save the legal and auditing costs. These measures significantly reduced our operating costs. We own nothing in Chile except our claims and have no long term commitments except the obligation to pay royalties if we exploit our properties. All of our support there—vehicles, office and equipment, and administrative personnel—is supplied under short-term contracts. We resumed filing reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission as of April 13, 2010, which has increased our legal and auditing costs for the three months ended April 30, 2010.

We conducted a drilling program on our Farellon property in September of 2009. We have analyzed the results and believe that further drilling of the property is warranted. Micon International Limited, from whom we commissioned a Canadian National Instrument 43-101 technical report summarizing the drilling results, has recommended that we conduct a two-phase drilling program. The first phase would consist of 1,200 meters of diamond drilling to define the structural controls on the mineralization, which may have been misinterpreted in the past due to the limited geological information available from the historic RC drilling, and assist in defining the depth and nature of the sulphide mineralization. The estimated cost of this phase is $220,000.
 
If the first phase is successful, we propose to conduct a larger exploration program consisting of 10,000 meters of RC drilling, 5,000 meters of diamond drilling, geophysical surveys and geological mapping to ascertain the extent of the structural controls and the potential size of the mineralization. The estimated cost of this phase is $1.9 million.
 
The cost and timing of both phases are subject to the availability of qualified mining personnel, such as consulting geologists and geo-technicians, and drillers and drilling equipment. When we first started exploring in Chile in late 2007 and early 2008, geologists, geo-technicians, drillers and drilling rigs were in short supply, those that were available were often unreliable and very expensive, and we had to work to their schedules rather than to ours. This changed following the market collapse in 2008, but the increasing prices of copper and gold—the price of copper increased steadily from a low of $1.26 per pound in December 2008 to $3.55 per pound in March, 2010, has fluctuated somewhat since then, and is now approximately $2.85 per pound; and the price of gold has increased from a low of $750 per ounce in December 2008 to a high of more than $1,230 per ounce in June 2010—have caused mining companies to increase their operations, reducing the availability of personnel and equipment. Although Chile has a well-trained and qualified mining workforce from which to draw, we have good contacts within the local mining community, and not a lot of early-stage companies such as Red Metal are competing for the available resources, if we are unable to find the personnel and equipment that we need when we need them at the prices that we have estimated today, we might have to revise or postpone our plans.
 
At April 30, 2010, we had a working capital deficit of $375,390 and $124,908 cash.  To complete our exploration programs, we will have to raise approximately $2.1 million in capital.  We will also have to raise approximately $400,000 to cover our estimated expenditures for legal, audit and other professional fees, administration, consulting, advertising and promotion, office and vehicle rental that we will incur over the next 12 months.   We have engaged a broker-dealer to assist us with our capital raising efforts.   We cannot predict whether the equity markets will stabilize or whether we will be able to raise the capital necessary to carry on operating or to execute our proposed exploration programs. If we are unable to raise the capital that we need to meet our working capital needs, we might have to alter our business plan and revise or postpone our exploration and development plans.

All of the revenue that we received during the three quarters ended July 31 and October 31, 2008 and January 31, 2009 was the result of a 5% royalty from Minera Farellon, which had the right to mine our Santa Rosa claims.  On October 27, 2008, Minera Farellon stopped mining the Santa Rosa claims, which ended our royalty revenue. In November 2008, we terminated our option agreement to purchase the Santa Rosa. Due to the exploration rather than production nature of our business, we do not expect to have operating revenue within the next year. 
 
During the quarters ended July 31 and October 31, 2008 we began acquiring mineral claims, which increased our administration, advertising, mineral exploration and professional overheads. Due to the downturn in the economy, we substantially decreased our operations during the quarters ended April 30, 2009 and July 31, 2009. Excluding the written down unproved mineral claims, our net losses for these quarters were $179,425 and $95,037 respectively. During the quarter ended October 31, 2009 we conducted a drilling program on one of our properties, which increased our mineral exploration expenses. Excluding the recovery of written down unproved mineral property costs, our net loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2010 was $202,537. During the quarter ended January 31, 2010, we filed a registration statement on form 10 to resume our reporting obligations, which resulted in a substantial increase in our professional fees. During the quarter ended April 30, 2010 we filed an amendment to our form 10 and increased our investor related activities, which increased our travel and entertainment costs, investor relations costs and professional fees.

Operating expenses. Our operating expenses decreased by $93,337, or 32%, from $290,188 for the three months ended April 30, 2009 to $196,851 for the three months ended April 30, 2010. The most significant changes were:

  
During the three months ended April 30, 2009, we wrote down $110,763 in mineral property acquisition costs after we wrote down several generative claims. During the three months ended April 30, 2010, we did not write down any of our properties.
  
During the three months ended April 30, 2009, we incurred approximately $24,000 in mineral exploration costs as a result of active operations in Chile. During the three months ended April 30, 2010, we incurred approximately $560 in mineral exploration costs as we had no active operations during this period.
  
Our advertising and promotion and travel and entertainment expenses increased by $15,775 and $22,479, respectively, as a result of increased investor relating activities.
  
Our bank service charges and interest increased by $4,890 during the three months ended April 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended April 30, 2009. This increase was caused by interest accrued on certain outstanding accounts payable.
  
On April 14, 2010, we resumed our duty to file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which resulted in an increase of our professional fees by approximately $3,000.
  
During the three months ended April 30, 2010 and 2009 we accrued $561 and $12,788, respectively, in interest on the promissory notes issued to the father of our president.

Liquidity
 
going concern
 
The unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this form 10-Q have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that we will continue to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business. We have not generated any significant revenues from mineral sales since inception, have never paid any dividends and are unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. Our continuation as a going concern depends upon the continued financial support of our shareholders, our ability to obtain necessary equity or debt financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow depends upon our ability to locate profitable mineral claims, generate revenue from mineral production and control our production costs. Based upon our current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods, which we plan to mitigate by controlling our operating costs.  We plan to obtain sufficient working capital through additional debt or equity financing and private loans, although there is no guarantee that we will be successful in our efforts to raise working capital.  At April 30, 2010, we had a working capital deficit of $375,390 and accumulated losses of $2,581,052 since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We cannot assure you that we will be able to generate significant revenues in the future. Our consolidated financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments that would be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in our financial statements.

internal and external sources of liquidity
 
To date we have funded our operations by selling our securities and borrowing funds, and, to a lesser extent, from mining royalties.

Net cash provided by financing activities. During the three months ended April 30, 2010, we issued 540,000 shares of our common stock for $135,000, and borrowed $50,000 from a company owned by the father of a director. During the three months ended April 30, 2009, we borrowed $106,000 from the father of a director.
 
Net cash used in operating activities. During the three months ended April 30, 2010, we used net cash of $51,079 in operating activities.  We used $196,851 to cover operating costs and decreased our accrued liabilities by $31,295.
 
These uses of cash were offset by net increases in prepaid expenses and accounts receivable of $2,801, accounts payable of $75,282, consisting mainly of legal fees incurred in preparing and filing our form 10 and the amendments to it; accounts payable to related parties of $98,423 for administration, consulting, advertising and promotion, office, automobile, rental and travel expenses; and accrued interest on our notes payable to a related party of $561.  
 
During the three months ended April 30, 2009, we used $60,462 net cash in operating activities. We used $290,188 to cover our operating costs for the period. We increased our prepaid expenses and accounts receivable by $9,654, primarily for advertising and marketing; accounts payable by $42,878; accrued liabilities and professional fees by $2,554; amounts due to related parties by $51,089; and interest accrued on our notes payable by $12,788.

Net cash used in investing activities. During the three months ended April 30, 2010, we spent $12,298 acquiring mineral claims and capitalized Chilean value-added tax as part of the unproved mineral claims. This VAT is recoverable from future VAT payable.
 
During the three months ended April 30, 2009, we spent $17,126 acquiring mineral claims and options to acquire mineral claims.
 
Since inception through April 30, 2010, we have invested $1,020,519 acquiring our mineral claims.

Unproved mineral properties

We have two principal properties—the Farellon and Mateo—consisting of both mining claims and exploration claims that we have assembled since the beginning of 2007 as described in Table 5. These properties are accessible by road from Vallenar as illustrated in Figure 1.

Capital resources
 
Our ability to acquire and explore our Chilean claims is subject to our ability to obtain the necessary funding. To assist us with our funding efforts, we have retained the services of the following consultants:

On December 1, 2009 we retained the services of an independent investor relations specialist to handle our corporate communications. We agreed to pay him a monthly compensation in the amount of $5,000 Cdn (approximately $5,000 US) on a month-to-month contract that can be cancelled any time with 30 day’s written notice.

On April 22, 2010 we entered into a one-year agreement with a broker-dealer as our exclusive agent to arrange funding for us of either equity or debt. We agreed to pay the broker-dealer the following compensation for any financing attributable to the broker-dealer during the term of the agreement and for one year following the termination of the agreement if we complete a financing with anyone introduced to us during the term:

  
a cash fee equal to ten percent of the proceeds that we receive from a financing
  
warrants equal to ten percent of the common stock or common stock equivalent that we issue in a financing on the same terms as any warrants that are a part of the financing
  
all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses up to 1.5 percent of the funds raised
 
The securities offered will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
  
Contingencies and commitments
 
We had no contingencies at April 30, 2010.  
 
We have the following long-term contractual obligations and commitments:

  
Farellon royalty. We are committed to paying the vendor a royalty equal to 1.5% on the net sales of minerals extracted from the Farellon claims up to a total of $600,000.  The royalty payments are due monthly once exploitation begins and are subject to minimum payments of $1,000 per month.  We have no obligation to pay the royalty if we do not commence exploitation.  As of the date of this report we have not commenced exploitation.
  
Che option. Under the terms of our option agreement with Minera Farellon, we must pay $20,000 by April 10, 2011 to exercise the option and purchase the Che claims.  If we exercise our option, then we must pay a royalty equal to 1% of the net sales of minerals extracted from the claims to a maximum of $100,000 to the former owner. The royalty payments are due monthly once exploitation begins, and are not subject to minimum payments.
 
 Equity financing
 
To generate working capital, between August 13, 2007 and June 10, 2010 we issued 6,441,256 shares of our common stock and warrants for the purchase of 861,430 shares to raise $2,850,018 under Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. See Table 6 below.

a These warrants expired unexercised.
b These shares were issued to pay three related-party creditors.

Based on our operating plan, we anticipate incurring operating losses in the foreseeable future and will require additional equity capital to support our operations and develop our business plan.  If we succeed in completing future equity financing, the issuance of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing shareholders.

Debt financing
 
As of January 6, 2010, we had borrowed $744,500 from Richard Jeffs, the father of our president, to whom we issued demand promissory notes for the principal sum together with interest of 8%.  We accrued $76,785 in interest payable on these notes. On January 7, 2010, we agreed to convert $814,492 in principal and interest on these loans into 2,714,973 shares of our common stock. In return, Mr. Jeffs agreed to forgive $6,792 in interest accumulated from December 1, 2009 to January 7, 2010.  On February 22, 2010, we borrowed $50,000 from a company owned by Mr. Jeffs, to which we issued a demand promissory note to secure the repayment of the principal sum together with interest at 6% per annum.
 
Challenges and risks
 
Although we have raised $2,850,018 since January 31, 2007, our cash position is inadequate to satisfy our working capital needs for the next twelve months.  Over the next twelve months we will need to raise capital to cover our operating costs, fulfill the obligations we may incur under our property agreements, and pay exploration or development costs on our properties.
 
With the exception of legal and accounting fees which we expect to increase since we have resumed the obligation to file reports with the SEC, we expect our general and administrative expenses to remain about the same. These costs include exploring and developing our mineral properties and sourcing additional mineral properties and exploration claims.  We are reviewing other mineral claims and could decide to buy or stake more mineral claims or to acquire options to buy more claims, which would require that we raise more capital.

We do not anticipate generating any revenue over the next twelve months. We plan to fund our operations through any combination of equity or debt financing from the sale of our securities, private loans, joint ventures or through the sale of a part interest in our mineral properties.   Other than the letter agreement dated April 22, 2010 relating to the private placement of our securities, we do not have any financing arranged.   We cannot assure you that we can raise significant funds through this offering.  Although we have succeeded in raising funds as we have needed them, we cannot assure you that we will be able to raise sufficient funds in order to cover our general and administrative expenses and acquire and develop properties. The downturn in the United States economy could affect potential investors’ willingness to invest in risky ventures such as ours. We may consider entering into a joint venture partnership with a more senior resource company to provide the funding that we need to complete a mineral exploration program in Chile.  If we enter into a joint venture arrangement, we would likely have to assign a percentage of our interest in our mineral claims to our joint venture partner in exchange for the funding.

Investments in and expenditures on mineral interests
 
Realization of our investments in mineral properties depends upon our maintaining legal ownership, producing from the properties or gainfully disposing of them.
 
Title to mineral claims involves risks inherent in the difficulties of determining the validity of claims as well as the potential for problems arising from the ambiguous conveyancing history characteristic of many mineral claims. Our contracts and deeds have been notarized, recorded in the registry of mines and published in the mining bulletin. We review the mining bulletin regularly to discover whether other parties have staked claims over our ground. We have discovered no such claims. To the best of our knowledge, we have taken the steps necessary to ensure that we have good title to our mineral claims.
 
Foreign exchange
 
We are subject to foreign exchange risk for transactions denominated in foreign currencies.  Foreign currency risk arises from the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates relative to the United States dollar.  We do not believe that we have any material risk due to foreign currency exchange.

Trends, events or uncertainties that may impact results of operations or liquidity
 
The economic crisis in the United States and the resulting economic uncertainty and market instability may make it harder for us to raise capital as and when we need it and have made it difficult for us to assess the impact of the crisis on our operations or liquidity and to determine if the prices we will receive on the sale of minerals, assuming we begin production in the future, will exceed the cost of mineral exploitation.  If we are unable to raise cash, we may be required to cease our operations. As noted above, we expect our legal and accounting fees to increase since we have resumed the obligation to file reports with the SEC. Other than as discussed in this report, we know of no other trends, events or uncertainties that have or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our short-term or long-term liquidity.

Off-balance sheet arrangements
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements and no non-consolidated, special-purpose entities.

Critical accounting estimates
 
An appreciation of our critical accounting judgments is necessary to understand our financial results.  These policies may require that we make difficult and subjective judgments regarding uncertainties, and as a result, such estimates may significantly impact our financial results.  The precision of these estimates and the likelihood of future changes depend on a number of underlying variables and a range of possible outcomes.  Other than our accounting for the fair value of our unproved mineral properties, accruals for accounting, auditing, legal expenses and mineral property costs, our critical accounting policies do not involve the choice between alternative methods of accounting.  We have applied our critical accounting judgments consistently.
 
Reclassifications
 
Certain prior-period amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the consolidated results of operations or financial position for any period presented.
 
Unproved mineral property costs

We have been in the exploration stage since our inception on January 10, 2005 and have not yet generated significant revenue from our operations. We are primarily engaged in acquiring and exploring mining claims. We expense our mineral exploration costs as we incur them. We initially capitalize them at each fiscal quarter end. When we have determined that a mineral claim can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, we capitalize the costs then incurred to develop the claim and will amortize them using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral claims are subsequently abandoned or impaired, we will charge capitalized costs to operations.

Financial instruments
 
Our financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, accrued professional fees and accrued mineral property costs. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying values due to their short maturities.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
 
The Company has reviewed recently issued accounting pronouncements and plans to adopt those that are applicable to it. It does not expect the adoption of these pronouncements to have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

We sold all of these securities to non-US persons in offshore transactions, relying on the registration exemption in Rule 903 of Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

We gave each investor adequate access to sufficient information about the company to make an informed investment decision.  We sold none of the securities through underwriters and had no underwriting discounts or commissions; and we granted no registration rights to any of the investors.
