MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2015

The following management?s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations (the “MD&A”) has been prepared by management and provides a review of the
activities, results of operations and financial condition of Delrand Resources Limited (the
“Company” or “Delrand”) based upon International Financial Reporting Standards
(“IFRS”). This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial
statements of the Company as at and for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 (the
“Financial Statements”) as well as the notes thereto. All amounts are expressed in
Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated.

This MD&A is dated September 28, 2015. Additional information relating to the Company,
including the Company?s annual information form, is available on SEDAR at
www.sedar.com.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The following MD&A contains forward-looking statements. All statements, other than
statements of historical fact, that address activities, events or developments that the
Company believes, expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future (including, without
limitation, statements relating to exploration results, potential mineralization and future
plans and objectives of the Company) are forward-looking statements. These forward-
looking statements reflect the current expectations or beliefs of the Company based on
information currently available to the Company. Forward-looking statements are subject to
a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause the actual results of the Company to
differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements, and even if such
actual results are realized or substantially realized, there can be no assurance that they will
have the expected consequences to, or effects on the Company. Factors that could cause
actual results or events to differ materially from current expectations include, among other
things, uncertainties relating to the availability and costs of financing needed in the future,
the possibility that future exploration results will not be consistent with the Company's
expectations, changes in equity markets, changes in diamond markets, foreign currency
fluctuations, political developments in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (the "DRC"),
changes to regulations affecting the Company's activities, delays in obtaining or failure to
obtain required project approvals, the uncertainties involved in interpreting geological data
and the other risks involved in the mineral exploration business.

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made and, except
as may be required by applicable securities laws, the Company disclaims any intent or
obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information,
future events or results or otherwise. Although the Company believes that the assumptions
inherent in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, forward-looking statements are
not guarantees of future performance and accordingly undue reliance should not be put on
such statements due to the inherent uncertainty therein.

COMPANY OVERVIEW

The Company's business is the acquisition and exploration of diamond properties in known
diamond producing areas in the DRC. The Company also has rights to iron ore exploration
properties in the DRC.

For the year ended June 30, 2015, the Company reported a net loss of $4,375,171 (year
ended June 30, 2014: $3,487,552). The Company had a negative net asset value of
$(2,387,928) as at June 30, 2015 (June 30, 2014: net asset value of $1,745,816).

The Company's accumulated deficit as at June 30, 2015 was $127,917,345 (June 30, 2014:
$123,542,174). The Company had a working capital deficit of $2,387,928 as at June 30,
2015 (June 30, 2014: $587,641) and had a net decrease in cash of $22,396 during the year
ended June 30, 2015 (year ended June 30, 2014: net decrease of $70,154).

While the Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of
IFRS accounting principles applicable to a going concern, adverse conditions may cast
substantial doubts upon the validity of this assumption. In the event the Company is
unable to identify recoverable resources, receive the necessary permitting, or arrange
appropriate financing, the carrying value of the Company's assets could be subject to
further material adjustment. Furthermore, the volatile global economic environment and its
impact on certain market conditions may cast significant doubts upon the validity of this
assumption.

Delrand is a mineral exploration company such that the Company's ability to execute its
work plan, meet its administrative overhead obligations, discharge its liabilities and fulfill its
commitments as they come due, is dependent on its success in obtaining additional equity
or debt financing and ultimately, on attaining future profitable operations. These conditions,
along with the fact that the Company does not have revenue-generating properties,
incurred a loss of $4,375,171 for the year ended June 30, 2015 and had an accumulated
deficit of $127,917,345 as at June 30, 2015 indicate the existence of a material uncertainty
that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

During the year ended June 30, 2015, the Company completed a private placement of
500,000 units of the Company at a price of $0.50 per unit for gross proceeds to the
Company of $250,000. Each such unit was comprised of one common share of the
Company and one-half of one warrant of the Company, with each full warrant entitling the
holder to purchase one common share of the Company at a price of $0.75 for a period of
two years. During the year ended June 30, 2014, 1,036,617 warrants were exercised at a
price of $0.396 per share. This resulted in the issuance of 1,036,617 common shares of the
Company and gross proceeds to the Company of $410,500. 703,283 of the shares were
issued to a director of the Company (Arnold T. Kondrat). In April 2014, the Company closed
a non-brokered private placement of 666,667 common shares of the Company at a price of
$0.225 per share for gross proceeds of $150,000. A director of the Company (Mr. Kondrat)
was the purchaser of all of these shares.

In a press release dated September 15, 2014, the Company announced it had entered into
a share exchange agreement where it had agreed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of
VoiceTrust Holding Inc. (“VoiceTrust”), a privately-held global provider of voice biometrics
solutions based in Toronto, from VoiceTrust Holding B.V., an indirect subsidiary of
Ramphastos Participaties Coöperatief U.A. The said agreement provided that the Company
would acquire VoiceTrust for aggregate consideration of $27,000,000 to be paid by the
issuance of up to 36,565,839 common shares in the capital of the Company subject to
adjustment in certain circumstances (the “Acquisition”). Concurrently with the closing of the
Acquisition, the Company proposed to complete a private placement by the issuance of up
to 22,660,000 common shares of the Company. It was a condition of closing the Acquisition
that the Company dispose of its existing exploration assets to an arm's length party. At an
annual and special meeting of shareholders the Company held on December 8, 2014,
shareholders authorized, among other things, the Acquisition and concurrent private
placement. On February 12, 2015, the Company issued a press release announcing that by
mutual agreement, Delrand and VoiceTrust Holding B.V. had elected not to proceed with the
Acquisition. Accordingly, the share exchange agreement dated September 15, 2014 was
terminated. The proposed disposal of Delrand Resources Congo SPRL did not proceed as a
result of the termination of the said agreement. Delrand will continue to explore
opportunities in the resources and other fields.

In a press release dated September 11, 2015, the Company announced that its common
shares will begin trading on NEX, a separate board of the TSX Venture Exchange, on
Monday, September 14, 2015. The voluntary delisting of the Company?s common shares
from the Toronto Stock Exchange was effected at the close of business on September 11,
2015.

DIAMOND PROJECTS

The Company's business is the exploration and evaluation of mineral properties for
diamonds in the DRC. The Company's exploration programs in the DRC have been focused
on the Coexco and Bomili exploration permit areas in the Bafwasende region in the northern
DRC, and on the selection of targets in the Kasai provinces in the southern DRC.

Further interpretation of the results of the very large concentrates from the Coexco ground
and results from the Bomili ground detailed sampling permitted the reduction of the eight
Coexco permits to two permits whilst the two Bomili permits were relinquished. The two
remaining Coexco permits have now also been relinquished based on exploration results.
The Company has completed the program to evaluate a large exploration dataset covering
the Kasai provinces.

Northern DRC Project

Results from the 2009 reconnaissance stream samples, collected over the original 44
Coexco and two Bomili exploration permit areas, reported positive results in terms of
ilmenites, chrome spinels, garnet and micro-diamonds (i.e. less than 0.5 mm but larger
than 0.4 mm in size). The follow-up sampling program in 2011 over these positive areas
was narrowed down to 22 Coexco and the two Bomili exploration permits. Pursuant to the
follow-up sampling program, 490 and 97 follow-up stream samples were collected over the
Coexco and Bomili project areas, respectively, in 2012.

The number of positive samples from both the reconnaissance and follow-up stream
sampling were limited to five targets within the Coexco permit areas and two targets in the
Bomili permit areas. These seven blocks were earmarked for further detailed stream
sampling, that was conducted in 2012.

The Bomili project area is underlain by the Archaean rocks of the Mbomou Craton and there
is no cover of Neoproterozoic sediments. The two targets on the two Bomili permits were
covered by detailed stream sampling in the second half of 2012. The results of these
samples highlighted four streams on exploration permit (PR) no. 1774 as highly anomalous.
These samples were screened in the field, concentrated in Kinshasa, DRC and sorted for
kimberlitic minerals in South Africa. The results produced ilmenite grains in 15 samples with
up to five grains per sample. This follow-up program produced no garnets, a few chromites
but an abundance of ilmenite particularly in respect of permit PR 1774. All ilmenites have
been probed and confirmed as kimberlitic and the mineral chemistry indicates two, possibly
three, separate kimberlite sources for these ilmenites. These areas were identified as
priority and covered by a detailed "hammer" prospecting mission carried out by the
Company in 2013 with some samples returning more than 20 ilmenite. In late 2013 and
2014, additional detailed samples and more check samples were collected here. During this
program, ten samples produced 21 ilmenites, 16 of which had “SS” surface textures – these
are sculptured surfaces and represent the mineral's original surface indicating that these
ilmenites have not been transported. At the same time, a start was made with a ground
magnetic survey over these high counts on PR 1774. Break down of the geophysical
equipment meant that only 3 lines were surveyed and these results were inconclusive.

All the ilmenites have been identified visually as kimberlitic and 30 ilmenites from the two
missions were submitted to the microprobe for major element analysis to verify its
paragenesis. Although these have shown to be kimberlitic, based on the major element
mineral chemistry provided by Mineral Services, the chemistry of these grains have high
Fe³ values which indicates that crystalisation occurred under high fO2 (oxidizing) conditions
which is not favourable for the preservation of diamonds. Furthermore and based on the
limited geophysical work done over these targets, the presence of kimberlite dykes are
strongly suspected which are likely to be limited in size. In the absence of the other
important indicators such as garnet, Cr-Spinel and diamond in all of the stream samples,
the disappointing mineral chemistry of the ilmenites, and the likelihood of being small
kimberlite bodies, the Bomili project has been downgraded in terms of its diamond potential
and the Bomili permits have been relinquished.

The Coexco project area is dominated by almost horizontally bedded Neoproterozoic Lindian
Group sediments (shale, sandstone and conglomerate) overlying the Archaean Mbomou
Craton. A large part of the Coexco project area is covered by a thick and mature laterite
crust masking most of the rock formations of the area. These laterites have chemically
altered and etched, and hence depressed the occurrences of kimberlitic satellite minerals
significantly. Artisanal diamond diggings were observed along several rivers and its
tributaries within the target area. The 2012 follow-up program produced 48 diamonds, 12
kimberlitic ilmenites (picro-ilmenite), 21 chromites and 7 garnets that have a marginal
mantle signature (G3 and G5) over the reduced area. Although the follow-up work failed to
focus on any specific targets, the depressed distribution of the mantle minerals is due to the
thick (at least 10 metres) laterite.

The abundance of diamonds which are not affected by the chemical etching of the laterite,
made this a promising target. The conclusion from infra-red work on the initial micro-
diamonds recovered from the reconnaissance work suggests that there are two sources, one
in the north and one more to the south. Visual observations of the diamonds recovered from
the follow-up samples indicate that there is no obvious sign of wear or breakage. The infra-
red studies of the 48 diamonds recovered from the follow-up work show derivation from a
restricted number of sources. The sorting of these concentrates, by Afrid Laboratory in
South Africa, was only completed during Q1 of 2014 due to the large concentrates. The
results of those samples produced eight diamonds in a relatively small area covering the
two Coexco permits that had been retained. However, due to the general spread of the
diamonds across the permits and lack of focus of these minerals into specific targets it has
been decided to discontinue with any further exploration in respect of these permits. The
two permits have been returned to Coexco (the holder of the permits) and the agreement
with Coexco has been cancelled.

Southern DRC

Delrand negotiated an exploration agreement with Rio Tinto Minerals Development Limited
("Rio Tinto") in order to access and interpret a large diamond exploration dataset which
Rio Tinto acquired. Delrand has since recognized a regional background "noise" of kimberlitic
indicator minerals which has complicated the recognition of residual mineral anomalies.
However, it has now highlighted several promising targets. The DRC Department of Mines
(CAMI) however remains closed for applications for new exploration permits (PR) and Rio
Tinto has therefore suspended the agreement until such time when it will be possible to
secure exploration permits over these promising targets.

At the same time, Delrand has reviewed its own dataset which it has built up since 2003
and has identified several promising targets which it hopes to secure once the CAMI is in a
position to accept new applications.

Security of Tenure

The Company has relinquished the Bomili exploration permits and its rights to the Coexco
exploration permits based on exploration results and presently does not hold any
exploration permits. However, Delrand is looking to make additional applications for
exploration permits as soon as CAMI opens for new applications.

IRON ORE PROPERTIES

In May 2011, the Company announced the discovery of high grade haematite (a form of
iron ore) in its exploration areas within Province Orientale, DRC, through its then joint
venture with Rio Tinto. Additional iron ore results were announced by the Company in
November 2011. The drilling results for 1,117 metres of diamond drill holes, which are
detailed below, revealed average grades from the mineralized intercepts ranging from
62.5% to 68.5% iron. The iron ore exploration was funded and operated by Rio Tinto.

Initial geological research and exploration had indicated that the exploration permit areas,
which hitherto had been largely unexplored using modern exploration methods, were highly
prospective for the discovery of iron ore deposits. This assessment is supported by these
initial drill results. Mapping and first pass drilling was completed on the Zatua 01 and 02
target areas with 11 diamond drill holes, one of which had to be abandoned, totaling 1,117
meters. Seven of these holes intercepted high grade haematite mineralization. The
mineralized package was not present in the remaining holes despite their central location.
The target areas had been selected after a regional airborne magnetic survey had identified
geophysical anomalies which subsequent ground follow up indicated to be associated with
outcropping haematite mineralization. Mineralized intervals, where intercepted by a drill
hole, range in thickness from 37 meters to 121 meters with both friable and massive
textures being observed.

Analytical results were received for all seven holes with values of 62.5%-68.5% for Fe;
0.56% to 4.78% for Al 2O3; 0.48% to 6.36% for SiO2 and 0.040% to 0.148% for P, with the
elevated high phosphorous values appearing to be associated with recent weathering.
Despite limited thicknesses in some of the holes, the results give encouragement that high-
grade haematite is present in the area. No further work has been conducted at the iron ore
project since early 2012. Subsequently, Rio Tinto has withdrawn from the joint venture iron
ore project. Delrand has however maintained its interest in the properties with a view to
realizing any potential value at a future date.

QUALIFIED PERSON

Dr. Michiel C. J. de Wit, the Company's President and a “qualified person” as such term is
defined in National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical
information in this MD&A.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the year ended June 30, 2015, the Company reported a net loss of $4,375,171 (or
$0.20 per share), compared to a net loss of $3,487,552 (or $0.16 per share) incurred
during the year ended June 30, 2014. The loss in the year ended June 30, 2015 is mainly
the result of an impairment taken on Northern DRC properties in the amount of $2,353,315,
as well as legal fees in the connection with VoiceTrust transactions. As compared to the loss
in the year ended June 30, 2014 which was the result of an impairment taken on the Acacia
exploration permits in the amount of $3,115,554 as well as higher general and
administrative expenses relating to corporate activities.

During the three month period ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded a net loss of
$253,185 compared to a net loss of $90,682 recorded during the three month period ended
March 31, 2015.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2015, the Company recorded a net loss of
$90,682 compared to a net loss of $3,457,790 recorded during the three month period
ended December 31, 2014.

During the three month period ended December 31, 2014, the Company recorded a net loss
of $3,457,790 compared to a net loss of $573,514 that was recorded during the three
month period ended September 30, 2014. The increase in net loss was mainly due to an
impairment of deferred exploration expenditures of $2,353,315 during the three month
period ended December 31, 2014 and increased legal and consulting fees pertaining to the
VoiceTrust transaction.

During the three month period ended September 30, 2014, the Company recorded a net
loss of $573,514 compared to a net loss of $3,311,169 that was recorded during the three
month period ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in the net loss was due to an impairment
of deferred exploration expenditures of $3,115,554 during the three month period ended
June 30, 2014, which was partially offset by higher legal and consulting fees.
During the three month period ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded a net loss of
$3,311,169 compared to a net loss of $74,819 that was recorded during the three month
period ended March 31, 2014. The increase in the net loss was mainly due to impairment
of deferred exploration expenditures of $3,115,554 and an increase in audit fees related to
year end reporting as well as legal and consultant fees relating to corporate activities.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2014, the Company recorded a net loss of
$74,819 compared to a net loss of $55,783 that was recorded during the three month
period ended December 31, 2013. The increase in the net loss was mainly due to an
increase in filing fees relating to the TSX listing and tax consulting fees.

During the three month period ended December 31, 2013, the Company recorded a net loss
of $55,783 compared to a net loss of $45,781 that was recorded during the three month
period ended September 30, 2013. The increase in the net loss was mainly due to an
increase in both shareholder information costs and consulting fees.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As at June 30, 2015, the Company had cash of $9,163 and a working capital deficit of
$2,387,928 compared to cash of $31,559 and a working capital deficit of $587,641 as at
June 30, 2014.

During the year ended June 30, 2014, 1,036,617 warrants were exercised at a price of
$0.396 per share. This resulted in the issuance of 1,036,617 common shares of the
Company and gross proceeds to the Company of $410,500. 703,283 of the shares were
issued to Arnold T. Kondrat, a director of the Company (Mr. Kondrat was also, subsequent
to the warrant excercise, appointed Chief Executive Officer of the Company).

In April 2014, the Company closed a non-brokered private placement of 666,667 common
shares of the Company at a price of $0.225 per share for gross proceeds of Cdn$150,000. A
director of the Company (Mr. Kondrat) was the purchaser of all of the shares.

In July 2014, the Company closed a non-brokered arm's length private placement of
500,000 units of the Company at a price of $0.50 per unit for gross proceeds to the
Company of $250,000. Each such unit was comprised of one common share of the
Company and one-half of one warrant of the Company, with each full warrant entitling the
holder to purchase one common share of the Company at a price of $0.75 for a period of
two years.

The Company has no operating revenues and is wholly reliant upon external financing to
fund its activities. There is no assurance that such financing will be available on acceptable
terms, if at all.

Rio Tinto had previously funded exploration at the Company's DRC North diamond project
and all of the exploration at the DRC iron ore project.

In general, market conditions have limited the availability of funds. Given the Company's
financial position and available resources, the Company currently expects a need to access
equity markets for financing over the next twelve months. In light of current conditions,
the Company has continued a series of measures to bring its spending in line with the
projected cash flows from its operations, in order to preserve its balance sheet and
maintain its liquidity position. The Company believes that based on its current financial
position and liquidity profile, the Company will be able to satisfy its current and long-term
obligations. The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in
accordance with IFRS applicable to a going concern.

As at June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, there were no contractual obligations or other off-
balance sheet commitments entered into by the Company.

FUTURE ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Certain pronouncements were issued by the IASB or the IFRIC that are mandatory for
accounting periods on or after January 1, 2015 or later periods. Many are not applicable or
do not have a significant impact to the Company and have been excluded. The following
have not yet been adopted and are being evaluated to determine their impact on the
Company.

IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”) was issued by the IASB in November 2009 with
additions in October 2010 and May 2013 and will replace IAS 39 Financial Instruments:
Recognition and Measurement (“IAS 39”). IFRS 9 uses a single approach to determine
whether a financial asset is measured at amortized cost or fair value, replacing the multiple
rules in IAS 39. The approach in IFRS 9 is based on how an entity manages its financial
instruments in the context of its business model and the contractual cash flow
characteristics of the financial assets. Most of the requirements in IAS 39 for classification
and measurement of financial liabilities were carried forward unchanged to IFRS 9, except
that an entity choosing to measure a financial liability at fair value will present the portion of
any change in its fair value due to changes in the entity's own credit risk in other
comprehensive income, rather than within profit or loss. The new standard also requires a
single impairment method to be used, replacing the multiple impairment methods in IAS 39.
IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. Earlier
adoption is permitted.

IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements (“IAS 1”) was amended in December 2014 in
order to clarify, among other things, that information should not be obscured by
aggregating or by providing immaterial information, that materiality consideration apply to
all parts of the financial statements and that even when a standard requires a specific
disclosure, materiality considerations do apply. The amendments are effective for annual
periods beginning on or after January 1, 2016. Earlier adoption permitted.

IAS 27 – Separate Financial Statements (“IAS 27”) was amended in August 2014 to
reinstate the equity method as an accounting option for investments in subsidiaries, joint
ventures and associates in an entity?s separate financial statements. The amendments are
effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2016. Earlier adoption
permitted.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS
requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the
application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and
expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying
assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Information about critical judgments in
applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts
recognized in the financial statements include the following:

Provisions and contingencies

The amount recognized as provision, including legal, contractual and other exposures or
obligations, is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the related liability,
including any related interest charges, taking into account the risks and uncertainties
surrounding the obligation. In addition, contingencies will only be resolved when one or
more future events occur or fail to occur. Therefore, assessment of contingencies
inherently involves the exercise of significant judgment and estimates of the outcome of
future events. The Company assesses its liabilities and contingencies based upon the best
information available, relevant tax laws and other appropriate requirements.

Exploration and evaluation expenditures

The application of the Company's accounting policy for exploration and evaluation
expenditures requires judgment in determining whether it is likely that future economic
benefits will flow to the Company, which may be based on assumptions about future events
or circumstances. Estimates and assumptions made may change if new information
becomes available. If, after the expenditures are capitalized, information becomes available
suggesting that the recovery of expenditure is unlikely, the amount capitalized is written off
in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss during the period the new information
becomes available.

Share-based payment transactions

The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference
to the estimated fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted.
Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determining the most
appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant.
This estimate also requires determining the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model
including the expected life of the share option, volatility and dividend yield and making
assumptions about them.

The estimated fair value at grant date is determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing
model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of
dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share,
the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option. Under
IFRS, the Company is required to estimate the number of forfeitures likely to occur on grant
date and reflect this in the share-based payment expense revising for actual experiences in
subsequent periods.

Decommissioning and environmental provisions

The Company's operations are subject to environmental regulations in the DRC. Upon any
establishment of commercial viability of a site, the Company will estimate the cost to
restore the site following the completion of commercial activities and depletion of reserves.
These future obligations are estimated by taking into consideration closure plans, known
environmental impacts, and internal and external studies which estimate the activities and
costs that will be carried out to meet the decommissioning and environmental obligations.
Amounts recorded for decommissioning and environmental provisions are based on
estimates of decommissioning and environmental costs which may not be incurred for
several years or decades. The decommissioning and environmental cost estimates could
change due to amendments in laws and regulations in the DRC. Additionally, actual
estimated decommissioning and reclamation costs may differ from those projected as a
result of an increase over time of actual remediation costs, a change in the timing for
utilization of reserves and the potential for increasingly stringent environmental regulatory
requirements. The Company is currently in the exploration stage and as such, there are no
decommissioning and environmental reclamation costs as at June 30, 2015.

Functional and presentation currency

Judgment is required to determine the functional currency of each entity. These judgments
are continuously evaluated and are based on management's experience and knowledge of
the relevant facts and circumstances.

Impairment

Judgment is involved in assessing whether there is any indication that an asset or cash
generating unit may be impaired. This assessment is made based on the analysis of,
amongst other factors, changes in the market or business environment, events that have
transpired that have impacted the asset or cash generating unit, and information from
internal reporting.

Going concern

As referred to in the continuation of business note in the Financial Statements, management
uses its judgment in determining whether the Company is able to continue as a going
concern. Refer to Note 1 of the Financial Statements.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Company is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could significantly
impact its operations and future prospects. The following discussion pertains to certain
principal risks and uncertainties but is not, by its nature, all inclusive.

The only sources of future funds for further exploration programs which are presently
available to the Company are the sale of equity capital, or the offering by the Company of
an interest in its properties to be earned by another party carrying out further exploration.
There is no assurance that such sources of financing will be available on acceptable terms, if
at all. In the event that commercial quantities of minerals are found on any properties held
by the Company, the Company does not have the financial resources at this time to bring a
mine into production.

The current financial climate is characterized by volatile and uncertain times. The
uncertainty of forward looking statements is therefore greater. Diamond prices were
reduced significantly as a result of the economic downturn and the recovery could be
accompanied by volatility.

The Company's business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties in the DRC.
Assets and operations of the Company are therefore subject to various political, economic
and other uncertainties, including, among other things, the risks of war and civil unrest,
hostage taking, military repression, labor unrest, illegal mining, expropriation,
nationalization, renegotiation or nullification of licenses, permits, approvals and contracts,
taxation policies, foreign exchange and repatriation restrictions, changing political
conditions, international monetary fluctuations, currency controls and foreign governmental
regulations that favor or require the awarding of contracts to local contractors or require
foreign contractors to employ citizens of, or purchase supplies from, a particular
jurisdiction. Changes, if any, in mining or investment policies or shifts in political attitude in
the DRC may adversely affect the Company's operations. Operations may be affected in
varying degrees by government regulations with respect to, but not limited to, restrictions
on production, price controls, export controls, currency remittance, income taxes, foreign
investment, maintenance of claims, environmental legislation, land use, land claims of local
people, water use and mine safety. Failure to comply strictly with applicable laws,
regulations and local practices relating to mineral rights could result in loss, reduction or
expropriation of entitlements. In addition, in the event of a dispute arising from operations
in the DRC, the Company may be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of foreign courts or
may not be successful in subjecting foreign persons to the jurisdiction of courts in Canada.
The Company also may be hindered or prevented from enforcing its rights with respect to a
governmental instrumentality because of the doctrine of sovereign immunity. It is not
possible for the Company to accurately predict such developments or changes in laws or
policy or to what extent any such developments or changes may have a material adverse
effect on the Company's operations.

The DRC is a developing nation emerging from a period of civil war and conflict. Physical
and institutional infrastructure throughout the DRC is in a debilitated condition. The DRC is
in transition from a largely state-controlled economy to one based on free market
principles, and from a non-democratic political system with a centralized ethnic power base,
to one based on more democratic principles. There can be no assurance that these changes
will be effected or that the achievement of these objectives will not have material adverse
consequences for the Company and its operations. The DRC continues to experience
violence and significant instability in parts of the country due to certain militia and criminal
elements. While the government and United Nations forces are working to support the
extension of central government authority throughout the country, there can be no
assurance that such efforts will be successful.

As a mineral exploration company, Delrand operates at a loss and does not generate any
revenue from operations. The exploration and development of mineral deposits involve
significant financial risks over a significant period of time which even a combination of careful
evaluation, experience and knowledge may not eliminate. Few properties which are explored
are ultimately developed into producing mines. Major expenditures may be required to
establish reserves by drilling and to construct mining and processing facilities at a site. It is
impossible to ensure that exploration programs will result in a profitable commercial mining
operation.

The Company is exposed to currency risk as its principal business is conducted in foreign
currencies. Unfavorable changes in the applicable exchange rate may result in a decrease
or increase in foreign exchange gains or losses. The Company does not use derivative
instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.

The exploration and, if such exploration is successful, development of mineral properties is
subject to all of the hazards and risks normally incident to mineral exploration and
development, any of which could result in damage to life or property, environmental damage
and possible legal liability for any or all damage.

The natural resource industry is intensely competitive in all of its phases, and the Company
competes with many companies possessing greater financial resources and technical
facilities than itself.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

a) Fair value of financial assets and liabilities

The consolidated statements of financial position carrying amounts for cash, prepaid expenses
and other assets and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due
to their short-term nature. Due to the use of subjective judgments and uncertainties in the
determination of fair values, these values should not be interpreted as being realizable in an
immediate settlement of the financial instruments.

The following presents the fair value and carrying value of the Company's financial
instruments:


Fair value hierarchy
The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent
to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the
fair value is observable:
-   Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in
    active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
-   Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices
    included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e.
    as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
-   Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that
    include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data
    (unobservable inputs).

There were no transfers between Level 1 and 2 during the reporting periods. The fair values of
financial assets and liabilities carried at amortized cost are approximated by their carrying
values.

b) Risk Management Policies

   The Company is sensitive to changes in commodity prices and foreign-exchange
   fluctuations. The Company's Board of Directors has an overall responsibility for the
   establishment and oversight of the Company?s risk management framework. Although
   the Company has the ability to address its price-related exposures through the use of
   options, futures and forward contacts, it does not generally enter into such
   arrangements.

c) Foreign Currency Risk

   Foreign currency risk is the risk that a variation in exchange rates between the Canadian
   dollar and United States dollar or other foreign currencies will affect the Company?s
   operations and financial results. Different portions of the Company's transactions are
   denominated in United States dollars, Congolese francs and South African rand. The
   Company is also exposed to the impact of currency fluctuations on its monetary assets
   and liabilities. The Company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar. The majority
   of major expenditures are transacted in US dollars. The Company maintains the majority
   of its cash in Canadian dollars but it does hold balances in US dollars. Significant foreign
   exchange gains or losses are reflected as a separate component of the consolidated
   statement of loss and comprehensive loss. The Company does not use derivative
   instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk. See Note 11(c) of the
   Financial Statements for additional details.

d) Credit Risk

   Financial instruments which are potentially subject to credit risk for the Company consist
   primarily of cash. Cash is maintained with several financial institutions of reputable
   credit in Canada, the DRC and South Africa and may be redeemed upon demand. It is
   therefore the Company's opinion that such credit risk is subject to normal industry risks
   and is considered minimal.

e) Liquidity Risk

   Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial
   obligations as they become due. The Company attempts to ensure that there is sufficient
   cash to meet its liabilities when they are due and manages this risk by regularly
   evaluating its liquid financial resources to fund current and long-term obligations and to
   meet its capital commitments in a cost-effective manner. The key to success in
   managing liquidity is the degree of certainty in the cash flow projections. If future cash
   flows are fairly uncertain, the liquidity risk increases. The Company's liquidity
   requirements are met through a variety of sources, including cash and equity capital
   markets. In light of market conditions, the Company initiated a series of measures to
   bring its spending in line with the projected cash flows from its operations and available
   project specific facilities in order to preserve its financial position and maintain its
   liquidity position.

f) Mineral Property Risk

   The Company's activities in the DRC are exposed to various levels of political risk and
   uncertainties, including political and economic instability, government regulations
   relating to exploration and mining, military repression and civil disorder, all or any of
   which may have a material adverse impact on the Company's activities or may result in
   impairment in or loss of part or all of the Company's assets.

g) Market Risk

   Market risk is the potential for financial loss from adverse changes in underlying market
   factors, including foreign-exchange rates, commodity prices, interest rates and stock
   based compensation costs.

h) Interest rate risk

   Interest rate risk is the potential impact on any Company earnings due to changes in
   bank lending rates and short term deposit rates. The Company is not exposed to
   significant interest rate risk other than cash flow interest rate risk on its cash. The
   Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk.
   A fluctuation of interest rates of 1% would not affect significantly the fair value of cash.

i) Title risk

   Title to mineral properties involves certain inherent risks due to the difficulties of
   determining the validity of certain claims as well as the potential for problems arising
   from the frequently ambiguous conveyancing history characteristic of many mining
   properties. Although the Company investigates title to any mineral properties that it may
   hold, the Company cannot give any assurance that title will not be challenged or
   impugned and cannot be certain that it will have valid title to any mineral properties that
   it may hold. The Company relies on title opinions by legal counsel who base such
   opinions on the laws of countries in which the Company operates.

j) Country risk

   The DRC is a developing country and as such, the Company's activities in the DRC could
   be adversely affected by uncertain political or economic environments, war, civil or other
   disturbances, a changing fiscal regime and by DRC's underdeveloped industrial and
   economic infrastructure.

   The Company's activities in the DRC may be affected by economic pressures on the DRC.
   Any changes to regulations or shifts in political attitudes are beyond the control of the
   Company and may adversely affect its business. Operations may be affected in varying
   degrees by factors such as DRC government regulations with respect to foreign currency
   conversion, production, price controls, export controls, income taxes or reinvestment
   credits, expropriation of property, environmental legislation, land use, water use and
   mine safety.

   There can be no assurance that policies towards foreign investment and profit
   repatriation will continue or that a change in economic conditions will not result in a
   change in the policies of the DRC government or the imposition of more stringent foreign
   investment restrictions. Such changes cannot be accurately predicted.

k) Capital Management

  The Company manages its common shares and warrants as capital. The Company's main
  objectives when managing its capital are:

  - to maintain a flexible capital structure which optimizes the cost of capital at an
    acceptable level of risk while providing an appropriate return to its shareholders;
  - to maintain a sufficient capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market
    confidence and to sustain future development of the business;
  - to safeguard the Company's ability to obtain financing; and
  - to maintain financial flexibility in order to have access to capital in the event of future
    acquisitions.

  The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in accordance
  with the objectives stated above, as well as responds to changes in economic conditions
  and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets.

  There were no significant changes to the Company's approach to capital management
  during the year ended June 30, 2015.

  Neither the Company nor its subsidiary is subject to externally imposed capital
  requirements.

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that all
relevant information is gathered and reported to senior management, including the
Company's Chief Executive Officer and Vice President, Finance, on a timely basis so that
appropriate decisions can be made regarding public disclosure. As at June 30, 2015, the
Company's Chief Executive Officer and Vice President, Finance evaluated or caused to be
evaluated under their supervision the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls
and procedures as required by Canadian securities laws. Based on that evaluation, the Chief
Executive Officer and Vice President, Finance have concluded that, as of June 30, 2015, the
Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Internal controls have been designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of the Company's financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements
together with the other financial information for external purposes in accordance with IFRS.
As at June 30, 2015, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Vice President, Finance
evaluated or caused to be evaluated under their supervision, the effectiveness of the
Company?s internal control over financial reporting as required by Canadian securities laws.
Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Vice President, Finance have
concluded that, as of June 30, 2015, the Company's internal control over financial reporting
was effective.

The Company is required under Canadian securities laws to disclose herein any change in
the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's
most recent interim period that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. No changes were identified in
the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the year ended June 30,
2015, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the
Company's internal control over financial reporting.

It should be noted that a control system, including the Company's disclosure and internal
controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived can provide only reasonable, but not
absolute, assurance that the objective of the control system will be met and it should not be
expected that the disclosure and internal controls and procedures will prevent all errors or
fraud.
