NATURE OF BUSINESS

The Company was originally incorporated under the laws of British Columbia ("BC") on June 21, 1989 under the Company Act (British Columbia) and changed its name to Foran Mining Corporation on September 8, 1989. On November 13, 2007, the Company continued into Saskatchewan under The Business Corporations Act (Saskatchewan) and on July 4, 2014, the Company continued back to British Columbia under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The Company is a reporting issuer in each Province and Territory of Canada. The Company's Common Shares are traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") under the symbol "FOM" and on OTCQX Best Market under the ticker symbol "FMCXF".

The Company's principal business activity is the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties with the objective of discovering mineral reserves and the development of an operating mine. The Company's flagship property is its 100% owned McIlvenna Bay property ("McIlvenna Bay Property") in Saskatchewan, Canada, 65 kilometres ("km") west of Flin Flon, Manitoba. The Company holds its interest in the McIlvenna Bay Property through its wholly owned subsidiary, McIlvenna Bay Operating Ltd. ("MBO"). Foran is presently in the pre-development stage after announcing the results from the National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") compliant 2022 Feasibility Study for the McIlvenna Bay deposit, a copper ("Cu") - zinc ("Zn") - gold ("Au") - silver ("Ag") rich volcanic hosted massive sulphide ("VHMS") deposit ("McIlvenna Bay Deposit"), intended to be the center of a new mining camp in a prolific district that has already been producing for 100 years.

The McIlvenna Bay Project hosts the McIlvenna Bay Deposit and the Tesla Zone and comprises the infrastructure and works related to pre-development and advanced exploration activities of the Company (the "McIlvenna Bay Project"). The Tesla Zone lies adjacent to and approximately 300 metres north of the McIlvenna Bay Deposit (the "Tesla Zone").

Foran's objective is to develop the McIlvenna Bay Property based on the Company's carbon neutrality goals and targets, as part of a broader mission to create a blueprint for responsible mining that is upheld as

Page 5 of 25

leading practice globally. Foran is committed to creating value for all stakeholders, which includes striving to work with and support local communities, provide safe employment, ensure diversity and equality, protect biodiversity, and limit its contribution to climate change, while producing critical minerals that will enable the world to transition away from reliance on fossil fuels.

To date, the Company has not generated any revenues.

Further information regarding the business of Foran, its operations and its mineral properties can be found in the Company's most recent annual information form filed on SEDAR+ under the Company's profile at www.sedarplus.ca.

OUTLOOK FOR 2024

Surface Prep and Exploration Decline

During the year-ended December 31, 2023, total surface prep and exploration decline costs incurred on the McIlvenna Bay Project were $12.6 million, including $6.9 million on underground works and $3.7 million on water treatment. After pausing the decline development in 2022, the Company restarted the decline works in August following the receipt of the water treatment discharge permits and completion of the temporary water treatment plant construction, with approximately 58 metres advanced in 2023.

The Company plans to complete approximately 3,150 metres of development during 2024. Upon and subject to the Company reaching a full construction decision, the site operations are expected to transition from the surface prep and exploration decline permit to a construction permit later in 2024.

Early Works

Early works on the McIlvenna Bay Project continued through 2023, focused primarily on securing long lead items, procurement of surface infrastructure, and the installation of temporary and permanent construction camps.

During 2024, and in advance of a construction decision, the Company's early works program is expected to continue to focus on the following key areas:

  • Commissioning of Phase 1 of the permanent camp (96 dormitories, kitchen and recreation centre);
  • Commissioning of Phase 2 of the permanent camp (an additional 196 dormitories);
  • Commissioning of Liquid natural gas ("LNG") tank farm and genset power generation;
  • Commissioning of the sewage treatment plant;
  • Commissioning of the potable water plant;
  • Commissioning the warehouse;
  • Pre-strippingof the process plant terrace;
  • Relocation of administration buildings;
  • Commencing construction of the underground ventilation fresh air infrastructure;
  • Commencing construction of the truck shop and mine service centre; and
  • Site preparation for the dry stack tailings storage facility.

Exploration

Exploration activities in 2023 were primarily focused on the expansion of the Telsa Zone and other regional targets in the Hanson Lake area. Highlights from the 2023 program included a significant expansion of the Tesla Zone and the discovery of mineralization between the Telsa Zone and the McIlvenna Bay Deposit, referred to as the Bridge Zone (the "Bridge Zone"). The mineralized zones intersected at the Bridge Zone appear to correlate with ore zones from the McIlvenna Bay Deposit and this drilling has also identified important stratigraphic links, which suggest that the Tesla Zone and McIlvenna Bay Deposit are likely connected by a fold and that this area may represent a target for future exploration growth.

FORAN MINING CORPORATION | MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Page 6 of 25

During 2024, the Company plans to continue to focus on regional exploration of its mineral dispositions and claims and the expansion of the Tesla Zone and Bridge Zone. For 2024, the Company has budgeted for an exploration program of up to 48,700 metres of drilling, consisting of:

  • Up to 20,000 metres of winter drilling on regional targets in the McIlvenna Bay Property, including the Tesla Zone and Bridge Zone.
  • Up to 28,700 meters of summer drilling focused on continued expansion of the Tesla Zone and other regional targets in the Hanson Lake area during the summer months.

RECENT EVENTS AND DEVELOPMENTS

  • On February 22, 2024, the Company announced initial assay results from the 2024 winter program at the Tesla Zone and Bridge Zone. Initial results from recent Tesla Zone drilling continue to confirm the continuity of mineralization along strike, currently up to 1,050m and beyond the limits of the modelled conductor. The Tesla Zone remains open in all directions for expansion with further drilling.
  • On February 16, 2024, the Company filed a final short form base shelf prospectus to offer Common Shares, warrants, subscription receipts, units, debt securities and share purchase contracts, or any combination thereof, with a total offering price, in the aggregate, of up to $200 million at any time during the 25-month effective period of such base shelf prospectus. No securities have been issued under the base shelf prospectus as of the date hereof.
  • On December 12, 2023, the Company closed a private placement (the "December 2023 Offering") for aggregate gross proceeds of $200 million. The net proceeds of the December 2023 Offering are expected to be used for exploration and development of the Company's mineral projects in
    Saskatchewan, and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

  • On May 11, 2023, the Company announced that Darren Morcombe was stepping down as Director of the Company after more than 12 years of dedicated service. During his tenure, Mr. Morcombe provided strong stewardship and played a significant role in advancing the Company to its current state. Mr. Morcombe will remain with the Company as a strategic advisor.
  • On March 27, 2023, the Company closed a private placement (the "March 2023 Offering" and, together with the December 2023 Offering, the "2023 Offerings")) for aggregate gross proceeds of $100 million. The net proceeds of the March 2023 Offering have been partly used and are expected to continue to be used for exploration and development of the Company's mineral projects in
    Saskatchewan, and for working capital and general corporate purposes.
  • On February 23, 2023, the Company announced the appointment of Majd Bakar to its Board of Directors. Mr. Bakar brings a wealth of experience and knowledge from the technology sector to Foran's Board of Directors, having spent over 20 years holding key positions at Google and Microsoft.
  • From January 2023 to December 2023, the Company completed several drill programs encompassing over 31,783 metres of drilling, targeting the Tesla Zone, Bridge Zone and McIlvenna Bay Deposit in the McIlvenna Bay Property, and select regional targets elsewhere on the
    Company's properties.

MINERAL PROPERTIES

As of the date of this MD&A, the Company holds 8 properties comprising a total of 93 mining claims covering approximately 103,384 hectares ("ha") and also holds the Denare West property title in trust, which consists of 10 mining claims and covers approximately 21,066 ha. The properties are located between 15 and 102 km west of Flin Flon, Manitoba. All tenements are within 63 km of the McIlvenna Bay Deposit where the McIlvenna Bay Project is located.

The Company considers the following four properties to be its high priority properties: the McIlvenna Bay Property, which contains the McIlvenna Bay Deposit and the Tesla Zone; and three adjacent properties - Hanson, Balsam and Bigstone, all of which occur at the western limit of the Flin Flon Greenstone Belt. All four properties are underlain by prospective felsic volcanic stratigraphy that hosts variably significant VHMS styles of alteration and mineralization. The Comeback Bay property, also located in Saskatchewan, is of lower priority but has both precious and base metal VHMS potential within the western limit of the Flin Flon Arc Assemblage (Birch Lake Belt). The Galvani, Curie and Hanson North properties, which were recently acquired, and the Denare West Property, for which legal title was transferred to the Company to be held in trust as described below, are at an early stage of exploration maturity, but are expected to have the potential to host significant precious and base metal VHMS occurrences.

On November 20, 2023 the Company entered into an option agreement with Purepoint Uranium Group Inc. ("Purepoint"), which granted the Company the option to acquire up to a 100% beneficial interest in the Denare West property (the "Denare West Option") in stages by incurring certain exploration expenditures over a six-year period and, in respect of the final stage, making a final payment and granting a 2% net smelter returns royalty (the "Purepoint NSR") to Purepoint. In the event of the exercise of Foran's options to acquire 100% beneficial interest in Denare West, Foran has a further multi-stage option to buy back the Purepoint NSR. The Company holds title to the Denare West property in trust on its own behalf and on behalf of Purepoint.

Further details on the Company's significant properties are as follows:

MCILVENNA BAY PROPERTY

The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary MBO, has a 100% interest in the McIlvenna Bay Property, which consists of 44 claims covering a total of 29,418 ha and is located in east central Saskatchewan. The McIlvenna Bay Deposit is located on the McIlvenna Bay Property, approximately one km south of Hanson Lake, Saskatchewan, 375km northeast of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and 65km west south-west of Flin Flon, Manitoba. The McIlvenna Bay Deposit is linked to Flin Flon, Manitoba by 85km of highway followed by 18km of unsealed secondary road.

The McIlvenna Bay Deposit was discovered in 1988 and includes two distinct styles of VHMS mineralization which include massive to semi-massive sulphides and copper stockwork. Since 2011, the Company has been working to advance the McIlvenna Bay Deposit through continued exploration, resource definition and environmental and engineering studies.

Parts of the McIlvenna Bay Property are subject to a Net Tonnage Royalty, held by Voyageur Mineral Explorers Corp., of $0.75 per tonne of ore extracted. Cameco Corporation and BHP Billiton collectively hold an additional 1% Net Smelter Return royalty interest on parts of the McIlvenna Bay Property, which can be repurchased by the Company at any time for $1 million.

The claims that comprise the McIlvenna Bay Property are in good standing for periods between 2 and 21 years as of the date hereof.

2023 Activity

During 2023, drilling at the McIlvenna Bay Property primarily focused on three areas: expansion of the Tesla Zone near the McIlvenna Bay Deposit, exploration of the Bridge Zone between the Tesla Zone and the McIlvenna Bay Deposit and approximately 4,947 metres of infill drilling at the McIlvenna Bay Deposit.

Tesla Zone

The Tesla Zone lies adjacent to the McIlvenna Bay Deposit and was discovered during the 2022 summer program while drill testing a 900 metre long by 300 metres wide electromagnetic conductor ("EM"), located 300 metres north of the McIlvenna Bay Deposit.

During Q4 2023, the Company completed approximately 3,403 metres of land-based drilling utilizing directional drilling technologies on the Tesla Zone.

For 2023, the Company completed 20,191 metres of drilling targeting the Tesla Zone and the Higgs target located northeast of Tesla (which intersected Telsa mineralization). Drilling for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 continued to intersect significant widths of copper and zinc-rich sulphide mineralization and expanded the strike length of the zone to over 870 metres and at least 300 metres in the downdip direction.

Key highlights from the Tesla Zone for 2023 include:

  • Hole TS-23-10:
  1. 39.0m grading 2.86% Cu, 0.88% Zn, 41.4 g/t Ag and 0.74 g/t Au, including 11.2m grading 4.97% Cu, 1.72% Zn, 60.2 g/t Ag and 1.26 g/t Au;
  1. 5.9m grading 0.54% Cu, 7.18% Zn, 24.9 g/t Ag and 0.16 g/t Au, including 1.4m grading

0.22% Cu, 13.67% Zn, 20.8 g/t Ag and 0.09 g/t Au;

    1. 3.5m grading 6.47% Cu, 1.49% Zn, 86.5 g/t Ag and 0.03 g/t Au, including 2.11m grading 9.95% Cu, 0.99% Zn, 127.8 g/t Ag and 0.04 g/t Au.
  • Hole TS-23-12:
    1. 44.0m grading 1.08% Cu, 5.09% Zn, 32.3 g/t Ag and 0.39 g/t Au, including 21.1m grading

1.28% Cu, 8.22% Zn, 40.1 g/t Ag and 0.38 g/t Au

    1. 11.9m grading 0.84% Cu, 9.17% Zn, 46.4 g/t Ag and 0.36 g/t Au, including 6.0m grading 0.86% Cu, 11.36% Zn, 52.7 g/t Ag and 0.40 g/t Au.
  • Hole HG-23-01 (which expanded the Tesla Zone footprint by 120m along strike and 200m downdip)
    1. 4.5m grading 2.69% Cu, 3.14% Zn, 35.4 g/t Ag and 0.73 g/t Au
  1. 24.3m grading 0.56% Cu, 5.38% Zn, 25.5 g/t Ag and 0.59 g/t Au, including 5.6m grading 0.48% Cu, 10.69% Zn, 2.1 g/t Ag and 0.16 g/t Au

The proximity of the Tesla Zone to the McIlvenna Bay Deposit suggests that a potential future mining scenario could benefit from economies of scale with the existing and planned infrastructure of the McIlvenna Bay Project.

Bridge Zone

The Bridge Zone consists of mineralization between the Telsa Zone and the McIlvenna Bay Deposit.

During 2023, the Company completed 4,209 metres of drilling at the Bridge Zone. The 2023 drilling intersected important marker horizons within the stratigraphy in the Bridge Zone area that suggest a connection between the McIlvenna Bay Deposit and the Tesla Zone, and also successfully intersected significant sulphide mineralization in several zones that correlate well with the currently defined ore zones in the McIlvenna Bay Deposit. These results suggest that there is likely a genetic link between the Tesla
