REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders of Coral Gold Resources Ltd.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Coral Gold Resources Ltd. which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at January 31, 2015 and 2014 and the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), equity and cash flows for the years ended January 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, and the related notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the Company’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting; accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Coral Gold Resources Ltd. as at January 31, 2015 and 2014 and the results of its financial performance and its cash flows for the years ended January 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
Emphasis of Matter
Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 1 to these consolidated financial statements which describes the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the ability of Coral Gold Resources Ltd. to continue as a going concern.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the years ended January 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013
(Expressed in Canadian dollars)
1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
Coral Gold Resources Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated in 1988 under the Company Act of British Columbia and is primarily involved in the exploration and development of its mineral properties. The Company’s head office and principal place of business is Suite 900, 570 Granville Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada. The Company’s common shares are traded on the TSX-V, OTCBB, and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.
The business of mining and exploring for minerals involves a high degree of risk and there can be no assurance that current exploration programs will result in profitable mining operations. The recoverability of the carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets and the Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the preservation of its interest in the underlying properties, the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the achievement of profitable operations, or the ability of the Company to raise alternative financing.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As at January 31, 2015, the Company has a working capital of $11,324 and accumulated losses of $29,723,877. The Company has not yet generated any revenues from its operations. The Company is required to raise new financing through the sale of shares or issuance of debt to continue with its operations and to develop its mineral properties. Although management intends to secure additional financing, there is no assurance that management will be successful in its efforts to secure additional financing or that it will ever develop a self-supporting business. These factors together form a material uncertainty which may raise significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Statement of compliance
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
Basis of presentation
These consolidated financial statements are expressed in Canadian dollars, the Company’s functional currency and have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments that have been measured at fair value. The accounting policies in Note 3 have been applied consistently to all periods presented.
Approval of the consolidated financial statements
These consolidated financial statements were reviewed by the Audit Committee and approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on May 29, 2015.
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional and reporting currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the Canadian dollar. Transactions in currencies other than the Company’s functional currency are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At each financial position reporting date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing at the date of the statement of financial position. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated. Foreign currency translation differences are recognized in net income or loss for the year.
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the years ended January 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013
(Expressed in Canadian dollars)
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)
Significant Accounting Judgements and Estimates
Significant assumptions about the future and other sources of estimation uncertainty that management has made at the statement of financial position date, that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, in the event that actual results differ from assumptions made, relate to, but are not limited to, the following:
Determining if the Company has the ability to raise the financing required to continue as a going concern is a judgment made by management. Further disclosure is included in Note 1.
b)
|
Impairment of equipment and exploration and evaluation assets
|
Management considers both external and internal sources of information in assessing whether there are any indications that the Company’s equipment and exploration and evaluation assets are impaired. External sources of information management considers include changes in the market, economic and legal environment in which the Company operates that are not within its control and affect the recoverable amount of its equipment and mining interests.
c)
|
Depreciation rate for equipment
|
Depreciation is allocated based on assumed asset lives. Should the asset life or depreciation rates differ from the initial estimate, an adjustment would be made in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income or loss.
d)
|
Estimated reclamation provisions
|
The Company’s provision for decommissioning liabilities represents management’s best estimate of the present value of the future cash outflows required to settle estimated reclamation and site closure costs. The provision reflects estimates of future costs, inflation, and assumptions of risks associated with the future cash outflows, and the applicable risk free interest rates for discounting the future cash outflows. Changes in the above factors can result in a change to the provision recognized by the Company.
e)
|
Valuation of share based payments
|
The Company uses the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model for valuation of share-based payments. Option pricing models require the input of subjective assumptions including expected price volatility, interest rate and forfeiture rate. Changes in the input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate and the Company’s earnings and equity reserves.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)
Significant Accounting Judgements and Estimates (continued)
f)
|
Recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities
|
Estimates of future taxable income are based on forecasted cash flows from operations and the application of existing tax laws in each jurisdiction. Weight is attached to tax planning opportunities that are within the Company’s control, and are feasible and implementable without significant obstacles. The likelihood that tax positions taken will be sustained upon examination by applicable tax authorities is assessed based on individual facts and circumstances of the relevant tax position evaluated in light of all available evidence. Where applicable tax laws and regulations are either unclear or subject to ongoing varying interpretations, it is reasonably possible that changes in these estimates can occur that materially affect the amounts of income tax assets/liabilities.

Financial Instruments
All financial assets are initially recorded at fair value and classified into one of four categories: held to maturity, available for sale, loans and receivable or fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”). All financial liabilities are initially recorded at fair value and classified as either FVTPL or other financial liabilities. Financial instruments comprise cash and cash equivalents, investments in related companies, amounts due from a related party, accounts payable and amounts due to related parties. At initial recognition management has classified financial assets and liabilities as follows:

Investments in related companies are classified as available for sale and amounts due from a related party are classified as loans and receivables. Accounts payable and amounts due to related parties are classified as other liabilities.
Fair value hierarchy
Fair value measurements of financial instruments are required to be classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of inputs in making the measurements. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated statements of financial position comprise cash at banks and on hand, and short term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are cashable readily convertible into a known amounts of cash.
Exploration and evaluation assets
The Company is in the exploration stage with respect to its mineral properties and capitalizes all costs relating to the acquisition, exploration and evaluation of mineral claims and recognizes any proceeds received as a reduction of the cost of the related claims. At such time as commercial production commences, these costs will be charged to operations on a unit-of-production method based on proven and probable reserves. The aggregate costs related to abandoned mineral claims are charged to operations at the time of any abandonment. All capitalized exploration and evaluation expenditures are monitored for indications of impairment. Where a potential impairment is indicated, assessments are performed for each area of interest. To the extent that exploration expenditure is not expected to be recovered, it is charged to the results of operations. An impairment charge relating to a mineral property is subsequently reversed when new exploration results or actual or potential proceeds on sale or farm out of the property result in a revised estimate of the recoverable amount, but only to the extent that this does not exceed the original carrying value of the property that would have resulted if no impairment had been recognized.
The recoverability of amounts shown for exploration and evaluation assets is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain financing to complete development of the properties, and on future production or proceeds of disposition.
Incidental revenues and operating costs are included in exploration and evaluation assets prior to commercial production.
Once the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the extraction of mineral resources in an area of interest are demonstrable, exploration and evaluation assets attributable to that area of interest are first tested for impairment and then reclassified to mine development properties, and subsequently amortized over the life of the resources associated with the area of interest once mining operations have commenced.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Historical costs include expenditures that are directly attributable to bringing the asset to a location and condition necessary to operate in a manner intended by management. Such costs are accumulated as construction in progress until the asset is available for use, at which point the asset is classified as plant and equipment. Once commercial production has commenced, certain equipment are depreciated using the units of production method, if sufficient reserve information is available or the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, not to exceed the life of the mine to which the assets related.
Property and equipment are depreciated annually using the following methods and rates:
Computer hardware
|
|
20% declining balance
|
Equipment
|
|
20% declining balance
|
Vehicles
|
|
5 years straight line
|
An item of property and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on disposal of the asset, determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, is recognized in profit or loss in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income or loss.
Where an item of property and equipment comprises major components with different useful lives, the components are accounted for as separate items of property and equipment. Expenditures incurred to replace a component of an item of plant and equipment that is accounted for separately, including major inspection and overhaul expenditures, are capitalized.
Impairment
At each financial reporting date, the carrying amounts of the Company’s assets are reviewed to determine whether there is any indication that those assets are impaired. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment, if any. Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Fair value is determined as the amount that would be obtained from the sale of the asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and the impairment loss is recognized in the profit or loss for the year.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
Accounting for equity units
Proceeds received on the issuance of units, comprised of common shares and warrants are allocated based on a value determined by the Black-Scholes option pricing model for the warrants.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Share-based payment transactions
The share option plan allows Company employees, directors and consultants to acquire shares of the Company. All options granted are measured at fair value and are recognized in expenses as share-based payments with a corresponding increase in equity reserves. An individual is classified as an employee when the individual is an employee for legal or tax purposes (direct employee) or provides services similar to those performed by a direct employee.
The fair value of employee options is measured at grant date, and each tranche is recognized using the graded vesting method over the period during which the options vest. The fair value of the options granted is measured using the Black-Scholes option pricing model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. For non-employees, share-based payments are measured at the fair value goods and services received or the fair value or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined the fair value cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received. The fair value of the options is accrued and charged either to operations or exploration and evaluation assets, with the offset credit to equity reserves. This includes a forfeiture estimate, which is revised for actual forfeitures in subsequent periods. Upon the expiration or cancellation of unexercised stock options, the Company will transfer the value attributed to those stock options from equity reserves to deficit.
Provisions
Provisions are recognized where a legal or constructive obligation has been incurred as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefit will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. If material, provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation. The increase in any provision due to passage of time is recognized as accretion expense.
Reclamation provision
The Company records the present value of estimated costs of legal and constructive obligations required to restore mineral properties in the period in which the obligation is incurred. The nature of these restoration activities includes dismantling and removing structures, rehabilitating mines and restoration, reclamation and re-vegetation of affected areas. The reclamation provisions are initially recorded with corresponding increase to the carrying amount of related mineral properties.
When the liability is initially recognized, the present value of the estimated cost is capitalized by increasing the carrying amount of the related mineral property. Over time, the discounted liability is increased for the change in present value based on the risk-free interest rate applicable to the future cash outflows, which is accreted over time through periodic charges to income or loss.
Income (loss) per share
The Company presents basic and diluted income (loss) per share data for its common shares, calculated by dividing the income (loss) attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share is determined by adjusting the income (loss) attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares. In the Company's case, diluted income (loss) per share is the same as basic income (loss) per share as the effects of including all outstanding options and warrants would be anti-dilutive.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Income taxes
Income tax on the profit or loss for the years presented comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognized in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized as equity.
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.
The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the consolidated statement of financial position date.
A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized.
New accounting standards adopted by the Company
The mandatory adoption of the following new and revised accounting standards and interpretations on February 1, 2014 had no significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years presented:
IAS 36 – Impairment of Assets
In May 2013, the IASB issued an amendment to address the disclosure of information about the recoverable amount of impaired assets or a CGU for periods in which an impairment loss has been recognized or reversed. The amendments also address disclosure requirements applicable when an asset’s or a CGU’s recoverable amount is based on fair value less costs of disposal.
IFRIC 21 – Levies
In May 2013, the IASB issued IFRIC 21, Levies (“IFRIC 21”), an interpretation of IAS 37, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets (“IAS 37”), on the accounting for levies imposed by governments. IAS 37 sets out criteria for the recognition of a liability, one of which is the requirement for the entity to have a present obligation as a result of a past event (“obligating event”). IFRIC 21 clarifies that the obligating event that gives rise to a liability to pay a levy is the activity described in the relevant legislation that triggers the payment of the levy.
Accounting Standards and Amendments Issued But Not Yet Effective
The following accounting standards were issued but not yet effective as of January 31, 2015:
IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers
In May 2014, the IASB issued IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("IFRS 15") which supersedes IAS 11 – Construction Contracts, IAS 18 – Revenue, IFRIC 13 – Customer Loyalty Programmes, IFRIC 15 – Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate, IFRIC 18 – Transfers of Assets from Customers, and SIC 31 – Revenue – Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services. IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive five-step framework for the timing and measurement of revenue recognition. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the final standard may have on its consolidated financial statements.
IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments
The IASB intends to replace IAS 39 – Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement in its entirety with IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”) which is intended to reduce the complexity in the classification and measurement of financial instruments. In February 2014, the IASB tentatively determined that the revised effective date for IFRS 9 would be January 1, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the final standard may have on its consolidated financial statements.

Annual improvements
In December 2013, the IASB issued the Annual Improvements 2010-2012 and 2011-2013 cycles, effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2014. In September 2014, the IASB issued the Annual Improvements 2012-2014 cycle, effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2016. These Annual Improvements made necessary but non-urgent amendments to existing IFRSs. These amendments are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

4. EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS (continued)
Realization of Exploration and Evaluation Assets
The investment in and expenditures on exploration and evaluation assets comprise a significant portion of the Company’s assets. Realization of the Company’s investment in these assets is dependent upon the establishment of legal ownership, the attainment of successful production from the properties or from the proceeds of their disposal. Resource exploration and development is highly speculative and involves inherent risks. While the rewards can be substantial if an ore body is discovered, few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines. There can be no assurance that current exploration programs will result in the discovery of economically viable quantities of ore.
The amounts shown for acquisition costs and deferred exploration expenditures represent costs incurred to date and do not necessarily reflect present or future values.
Title to Exploration and Evaluation Assets Interests
Although the Company has taken steps to verify the title to exploration and evaluation assets in which it has an interest, in accordance with industry standards for the current stage of exploration of such properties, these procedures do not guarantee the Company’s title. Property title may be subject to unregistered prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.
Environmental
The Company is subject to the laws and regulations relating to environmental matters in all jurisdictions in which it operates, including provisions relating to property reclamation, discharge of hazardous material, and other matters. The Company may also be held liable should environmental problems be discovered that were caused by former owners and operators of its properties and properties in which it has previously had an interest. The Company conducts its mineral exploration activities in compliance with applicable environmental protection legislation. The Company is not aware of any existing environmental problems related to any of its current or former properties that may result in material liability to the Company other than the amount presented and disclosed as a reclamation provision in these consolidated financial statements.
Environmental legislation is becoming increasingly stringent and costs and expenses of regulatory compliance are increasing. The impact of new and future environmental legislation on the Company’s operations may cause additional expenses and restrictions. If the restrictions adversely affect the scope of exploration and development on the mineral properties, the potential for production on the property may be diminished or negated.
5. IMPAIRMENT OF EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS
The Company reviews the carrying amounts of its long‐term assets at each statement of financial position date to determine whether there is any indication that those assets are impaired.
During the year ended January 31, 2014, the Company determined that 184 claims were insignificant to the core property and did not warrant additional expenditures for claims maintenance. The 184 claims were previously part of the core claims – 100% and described in note 4 (a). The Company concluded that these claims were not required to maintain the value of the other core claims and therefore the costs incurred to date on those claims should be written off. The Company acquired these claims between 1986 and 1991. The $498,528 carrying value of the claims disposed was recorded as a charge to operations and is included in net loss in 2014. There were no impairments or write-offs during the current year.

13. COMMITMENTS
The Company has a cost-sharing agreement to reimburse Oniva for a percentage of its overhead expenses, to reimburse 100% of its out-of-pocket expenses incurred on behalf of the Company, and to pay a percentage fee based on the total overhead and corporate expenses. The agreement may be terminated with one-months’ notice by either party. Transactions and balances with Oniva are disclosed in Note 11.
14. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The fair values of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, amounts receivable from a related party, accounts payable, and amounts payable to related parties approximate their carrying values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. Investment securities are accounted for at fair value based on quoted market prices.
The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, and market risk.

14. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents is exposed to credit risk. The Company is not exposed to significant credit risk on amounts receivable (excluding GST).
The Company manages credit risk, in respect of cash, by maintaining the majority of cash at high credit rated Canadian financial institutions.
Concentration of credit risk exists with respect to the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and reclamation deposits as the majority of the amounts are held with a single Canadian and US financial institution. The Company’s concentration of credit risk, and maximum exposure thereto, is as follows:

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in satisfying financial obligations as they become due.
The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows required by operations and anticipated investing and financing activities. The Company had a working capital of $11,324 at January 31, 2015 and a working capital deficit of $486,109 at January 31, 2014. The Company has cash at January 31, 2015 in the amount of $147,575 (2014 - $8,074) in order to meet short-term business requirements.

14. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)
Market risk consists of interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, and other price risk. These are discussed further below.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk consists of two components:
|
|
(i)
|
To the extent that payments made or received on the Company’s monetary assets and liabilities are affected by changes in the prevailing market interest rates, the Company is exposed to interest rate cash flow risk.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(ii)
|
To the extent that changes in prevailing market rates differ from the interest rate in the Company’s monetary assets and liabilities, the Company is exposed to interest rate price risk.
|
The Company is exposed to interest rate price risk with respect to reclamation deposits as they bear interest at market rates. However, given the stated rates of interest are fixed, the Company is not exposed to significant interest rate price risk as at January 31, 2015 and 2014.
Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk to the extent that monetary assets and liabilities are denominated in foreign currency.
The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk with respect to cash, other amounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and amounts payable to related parties, as a portion of these amounts are denominated in US dollars as follows:

Based on the net Canadian dollar denominated asset and liability exposures as at January 31, 2015, a 10% (2014 – 10%) fluctuation in the Canadian/US exchange rates will impact the Company’s net income and comprehensive income by approximately $74,093 (2014 - $45,063).
The Company manages foreign currency risk by minimizing the value of financial instruments denominated in foreign currency. The Company has not entered into any foreign currency contracts to mitigate this risk.

c)
|
Market risk (continued)
|
Other price risk
Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market prices, other than those arising from interest rate risk or foreign currency risk. The Company is exposed to other price risk with respect to its investment securities, as they are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices.
The Company’s ability to raise capital to fund mineral resource exploration is subject to risks associated with fluctuations in mineral resource prices. Management closely monitors commodity prices, individual equity movements and the stock market to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.
d)
|
Classification of Financial instruments
|
IFRS 7 ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosures’ establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the input to valuation techniques used to measure fair value as follows:
Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included in 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 – inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy as at January 31, 2015:

15. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to pursue the exploration and development of its properties and to maintain flexible capital structure for its projects for the benefit of its stakeholders. In the management of capital, the Company includes the components of shareholders’ equity.
The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue new shares or adjust the amount of cash and cash equivalents. Management reviews the capital structure on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. There were no changes to the Company’s capital management during the year ended January 31, 2015.

This Management Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) is dated May 29, 2015 and discloses specified information up to that date. Coral is classified as a “venture issuer” for the purposes of National Instrument 51-102. The Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Unless otherwise cited, references to dollar amounts are Canadian dollars.
Throughout this report we refer to “Coral”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”, or “its”. All these terms are used in respect of Coral Gold Resources Ltd. We recommend that readers consult the “Cautionary Statement” on the last page of this report. Additional information relating to the Company is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and the Company’s website at www.coralgold.com.
Business Overview
The Company is an exploration stage entity whose principal business activities are the acquisition, exploration, and development of mineral properties. The Company’s mining claims are located in the states of Nevada and California in the United States. The Company’s present principal exploration activities have been focused on the Robertson mining claims located in Crescent Valley, Nevada. The Company is a reporting issuer in British Columbia, Alberta, and Ontario, a foreign issuer with the United States Securities & Exchange Commission, and trades on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol CLH, on the OTCBB under the symbol CLHRF, and on the Berlin & Frankfurt Stock Exchanges under the symbol GV8.
The Consolidated Financial Statements reflect the financial position and results of operations of Coral and its active US subsidiary, Coral Resources, Inc. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
Overall Performance
The following is a summary of significant events and transactions during the year ended January 31, 2015 and to the date of this MD&A:
Robertson Property, Nevada
Coral’s Robertson property is an advanced stage exploration project located along the Battle Mountain/Cortez Gold trend in north-central Nevada and immediately adjacent to the Pipeline gold mine. Over the past 25 years, Coral Gold and various joint venture partners have spent more than $25 million exploring the Robertson property.
In that time an extensive database comprised of 533,453 feet of drilling through 1,160 drill holes and 101,757 gold assays has outlined 10 gold zones.
In January 2012, Coral's independent engineering firm, Beacon Hill Consultants (1988) Ltd. (“Beacon Hill”) published a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) on 3 of the 10 known gold zones and determined that the Robertson Property is one of merit that warrants further development. The report also contained a current mineral resource estimate.

In mid-2010, exploration of the property was essentially halted by the BLM, who required Coral to submit a new Environmental Assessment before approving Coral’s new plan of operations. The situation, which is outlined below, was resolved in September 2013 after considerable expense and delayed progress.
In March 2014, Coral signed an Option, Joint Venture, and Private Placement agreement with Barrick Gold Exploration Inc. ("Barrick Gold") and Barrick Gold Corporation ("Barrick") on the Gold Ridge property. This property had previously been considered part of the Robertson property, but was partitioned for the sake of the exploration agreement.
Gold Ridge Property
The Gold Ridge Property consists of 108 claims covering approximately 2.5 square miles, and is adjacent to the western side of the Robertson claim block located in North Central Nevada on the Cortez Gold Trend. The Cortez gold mine is one of the world's largest and lowest cost gold mines, and the surrounding area hosts excellent upside exploration potential. In 2007, Coral drilled two deep holes on the northern most area of the Gold Ridge Property and encountered lower plate Carlin type formation with anomalous gold intercepts.
During 2007, the Company completed two deep flooded reverse circulation drill holes on the Gold Ridge Property, TV07-1 and TV07-2, to depths of 2,990 feet and 3,450 feet, respectively. The drilling was designed to test the lower plate of the Roberts Mountains thrust fault (“RMTF”) for high-grade Carlin-type mineralization hosted by favorable carbonate strata. TV07-1 intersected a thick sequence of fine grained siliceous sedimentary and volcanic rocks followed by biotite and quartz hornfels equivalents in the upper plate of the RMTF. Although the hole failed to reach the lower plate of the RMTF, it did intersect a number of narrow low-grade zones. TV07-2 was collared along a dike-filled splay of the Try fault zone and intersected a sequence of mostly fine grained siliceous sedimentary rocks and hornfels to 3,080 feet, at which point altered and mineralized limy mudstone in the lower plate was encountered. Beginning at 3,080 feet, the hole returned 200 feet of weakly to strongly anomalous gold values ranging from 0.031 to 2.190 ppm gold, including four 10-foot-thick intervals that exceed 0.01 oz Au/t.
Follow up mapping, rock sampling, and infill gravity surveys in 2008 lead to the Company’s identification of a new lower plate target zone that extends from the Company’s deep hole, 2 km to the south. The Carlin-type target added significant discovery potential to the Robertson Property for a world-class gold deposit. The target zone consists of 107 claims covering approximately 2.5 square miles and is adjacent to the western side of the Robertson claim block just north of the Pipeline Mine open pit along a projected mineralized fault and fracture system that controls gold within that deposit.
2014 Gold Ridge Property Exploration Program*
The purpose of the 2014 drilling at Gold Ridge was to test a strong surface gold (up to 9.4 ppm) and Carlin-type trace element anomaly located 4.5 km north of the Pipeline mine. It was proposed that this anomaly (Ridge anomaly), defined by soil and rock chip samples, represented the surface expression of a Carlin-type system hosted by favorable carbonate rocks in the lower plate of the Roberts Mountains Thrust Fault. The second was a structural target defined by intersecting sets of west-northwest and north-northwest striking dikes and a surface gold anomaly (up to 6.06 ppm), located 1.5 km west of the Tenabo granodiorite stock.
Three vertical diamond core holes, RGR-0001D through RGR-0003D, were completed to depths of between 955 m and 1,255 m, for a total of 3,191 m. Selected analytical results for the three holes are reported in the table below.

Two holes, RGR-0001D and RGR-0003D were designed to test the Ridge anomaly. RGR-0001D was collared on Gold Ridge along the north edge of a significant surface rock chip and soil anomaly (Ridge anomaly) and drilled to a depth of 981 m. RGR-0003D was offset 451 m southwest of RGR-0001D and completed to a depth of 955 m. Both holes returned scattered anomalous Au value up to 0.698 ppm and 0.573 ppm, respectively, along with several narrow intervals exhibiting Carlin-type geochemical signatures. The holes encountered a mostly siliciclastic sequence dominated by mudstone and chert and disrupted by major west dipping thrust faults in the upper 450 m. All of the intervals exhibiting a Carlin-type geochemistry are spatially associated with thrust faults. Neither hole intersected significant gold values or lower plate carbonate rocks.
Hole RGR-0002D was collared about 1.6 km north of RGR-0001D and 1.16 km south of TV07-2, a deep hole drilled by Coral in 2007. The hole was drilled to a depth of 1,255 m and was located near the structural intersection between west-northwest and north-west striking dike swarms. RGR-0002 encountered a significant number of anomalous gold intercepts including one 5-ft-thick interval that returned 36.3 ppm (1.06 oz Au/t). Most of the higher grade Au values (>0.34 ppm), including the high-grade intercept, are hosted by retrograde-altered calc-silicate hornfels replacing calcareous strata of the Ordovician Valmy Fm. Accompanying gold are anomalous levels of Se (up to 35 ppm), Bi (up to 114 ppm), Te (up to 34.8 ppm), Co (up to 119.5 ppm) as well as Ag (62.9 ppm), Cu (6,490) and As (978 ppm). The strong association of gold in RGR-0002D with zones of retrograde-altered hornfels, as well as the overall metal association (Au-As-Cu, Fe, Bi-Se-Te, Co and Ag) is strongly suggestive of distal skarn-type mineralization. The upper 900 m of RGR-0002D are dominated by an interbedded sequence of mudstone, chert and minor limestone intruded by numerous dikes ranging from granodiorite to rhyolite. Beginning at a depth of about 1,067 m and continuing to at least 1,130 m, RGR-0002D encountered a major shear zone interpreted to be the Roberts Mountains Thrust Fault. From about 1,090 m, rocks within the shear zone become increasingly calcareous and are thought to represent lower plate carbonate rocks. This interpretation is supported by a single conodont fossil age determination.

The sample preparation, gold assays and multi-element analyses were done by ALS Minerals. Gold assays were by inductively coupled plasma with atomic emission spectroscopy. This analytical method has a 0.001 ppm lower limit of detection. Samples with gold values exceeding 10.0 ppm were assayed using gravimetric determinations. Multi-element analyses were by four acid digestion of samples followed by mass spectroscopy determinations.
Gold Ridge Property Exploration Recommendations
In May 2014, Coral received a report summarizing the results of the 2014 Barrick Drilling Program prepared by Robert T. McCusker, P. Geol., Coral's Qualified Person for this project. Mr. McCusker makes the following recommendations for further exploration of the Gold Ridge property:
Ridge Anomaly
At the Ridge Anomaly, Hole RGR-0003D intersected a 130-ft.-thick zone of weakly anomalous gold values (up to 0.4ppm) from 1,238 ft., accompanied by locally anomalous levels for As (up to 745 ppm), Sb (up to 89 ppm), Hg (up to 1 ppm), and correspondingly low levels for Cu-Pb-Zn. This weakly mineralized zone is partly hosted by calcareous rocks in the Valmy Fm in the immediate footwall of a west-dipping imbricate fault in the hanging wall of the Abyss fault.Recommendations as follow-up to the 2014 Ridge anomaly drilling:
|
·
|
Complete detailed geological mapping of the area.
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
Undertake additional surface sampling focusing on faults.
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
Drill at least one additional core hole located on either the Coral 75 claim (Coral 100%) or the Coral 58 claim with the Excluded claim block (Barrick 61%, Coral 39%).
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
The core hole should be drilled vertical to a depth of at least 2,000 ft.
|
|
|

|
June Gulch Area
In the June Gulch area, drill hole RGR-0002D returned numerous significant gold intercepts including a single five-foot-thick interval that assayed 34.4 ppm gold. Most of the higher anomalous gold values (>0.34 ppm) occur in retrograde-altered calc-silicate hornfels suggesting both a spatial and genetic relation to the Tenabo porphyry system. Additionally, dike-filled segments of the Try fault zone transect the entire district from the western edge of Crescent Valley to Indian Creek, creating a major conduit for hydrothermal fluids.
Recommendations as follow-up to the 2014 June Gulch drilling:
|
·
|
Complete additional rock chip and dump sampling in the upper June Gulch and adjacent Mill Gulch areas. This should include sampling the numerous small dikes and fault zones.
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
Continue mapping in these areas focusing on dikes and structures.
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
Consider offsetting RGR-0002D with three core holes drilled to depths of at least 2,000-2,500 ft., depending on collar elevation.
|
Lower Plate Exploration
The 2014 Gold Ridge deep drilling did not include offsetting the intercept in Coral's 2007 hole, TV07-2, which encountered strongly anomalous Au values up to 2.19 ppm, accompanied by Carlin-type geochemistry in lower plate carbonate rocks. It is recommended that the mineralized zone intersected in TV07-2 be offset by two diamond core holes. This should include re-entry of TV07-2 and deflecting a hole to the southwest from a depth of about 1,500 ft. A second pre-collared vertical hole should be located 1,200 ft. south of TV07-2 and drilled to a depth of at least 3,500 ft. The purpose of the two holes is to test the potential for higher grade Carlin-type mineralization in the lower plate rocks closer to dike-filled high-angle fault segments in the Try fault zone.
|
·
|
Using a TH-75 or equivalent RC drill, re-enter and clean out TV07 to a depth of 1,500 ft. and set casing and a wedge.
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
Using HQ-diameter core, re-enter the cased hole and deflect the hole up to 10° to the southwest at least 2,000 ft.
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
Using a TH-75 or equivalent RC drill rig, drill and case a 1,500-ft.-deep vertical pre-collar hole located 1,200 ft. south of TV07-2.
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
Using HQ-diameter core, re-enter pre-collared hole and deepen to 3,500 ft.

Environmental Assessment (“EA”)
In April 2010, SRK Consulting (US) Inc. (“SRK”), Coral’s environmental compliance and permitting consultants, submitted an amended Plan of Operation ("APO") to the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the Nevada Department of Environmental Protection (NDEP) to allow the Company to carry out its work plan. A setback occurred when the BLM declined the drilling permit application because Coral’s existing EA (circa 1980's) was out of date. Realizing the importance to the Company of the ability to keep drilling, the BLM suggested withdrawing the APO, and reverting back to a previous APO from 2007 that allowed the Company to drill on certain areas of the property without any amendments.
In June 2010, the original APO was withdrawn. The Company immediately commissioned SRK to commence work on the new EA, which was to include archeological and endangered species studies, as well as addressing a number of other environmental issues. While the completion of the new comprehensive EA has delayed certain parts of the drill program, Coral stands by its ongoing commitment to sound environmental management.
The BLM accepted the fifth submission of the 2010 APO, and a kick off meeting was held on July 20, 2011. The meeting outlined the need for a new EA. In particular, the various categories to be studied in the EA – cultural, wild life, native religions, hazmat, paleontology, range management, noxious weeds, air quality, hydrology, riparian zones, migratory birds, environmental justice, and socio economic issues.
Studies had been in progress since November 2010, but the EA did not officially start until July 2011. The cultural studies were done by Kautz Environmental Consultants, Inc. (“Kautz and Co.”) of Reno, Nevada. Most of the other studies are by SRK out of Elko, Nevada who have overseen the entire environmental assessment.
As Coral anticipated, the work did not locate native religious sites or burial grounds, but the ghost mining town of Tenabo has required a detailed study.
By July 13, 2012, the baseline vegetation and wildlife field work had been completed and the baseline studies report was submitted to the BLM. The BLM's response to Coral’s baseline studies was received on July 27, 2012 and delivered to SRK, who have since supplied a response to the modifications to the baseline studies required by the BLM. SRK reported that responses from all the various questions on vegetation, wildlife, air quality, and Native American specialists had been received. As a result the Cumulative Effects Study Area (CESA) was enlarged and SRK completed the cumulative analysis, which is the final stage of the EA.
On September 24, 2012, Coral announced that SRK had completed and submitted the EA to the BLM. In September 2013, Coral received a notice from the BLM, which included the Decision on the Robertson Project Amendment to the Exploration Plan of Operations and Reclamation Permit Application and also the Finding of No Significant Impact (“FONSI”)
On January 13, 2014, Coral announced that it has received notice from the Bureau of Mining Regulation and Reclamation (BMRR) of the State of Nevada that the Plan of Amendment for Coral Resources Inc.'s Robertson Project has been approved. The BMRR has sent the revised Reclamation Permit to Coral.

Current Resources
Coral's current inferred resource estimate at the Robertson property core claims was calculated in the 2012 PEA Report by Beacon Hill. Gold ounces were calculated on the basis of US$1,350/oz Au and 70% Au recovery. The 0.0067 oz Au/t cut-off grade utilized to report the resource was derived from a mining cost of US$1.02/ton, processing cost of US$5.00/ton and waste cost of US$1.14/ton. The mineral resources in the table below were estimated using the CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves:

Note: Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, sociopolitical, marketing, or other relevant issues. The quantity and grade of reported Inferred resources in this estimation are uncertain in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define these Inferred resources as an Indicated or Measured mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in upgrading them to the Indicated or Measured mineral resource category.
Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”)
In 2010, Coral commissioned Beacon Hill to commence a PEA that would meet the NI 43-101 standard on three of its gold deposits located on the Robertson Property. The report was finalized and made public in late January 2012 (See news release dated January 18, 2012).
In completing the study, Beacon Hill used the services of Knight Piésold Ltd., SRK Consulting (U.S.) Inc., Kaehne Consulting Ltd., Kirkham Geosystems Ltd., R. McCusker, P.Geo., and F. Wright Consulting Inc. There are a number of deposits located on the Robertson property; however, Altenburg Hill, Porphyry, and Gold Pan are advanced development zones and are the subject of this PEA and based upon a combination of open pit mining methods and cyanide heap leach.
The results of the evaluation are as follows:

Note:
|
It should be noted that the economic analysis of this deposit is based upon the expenditures from the time a construction decision is made, and that all development costs to that point have been considered as sunk costs whether they have been expended or not at this time.
|
|
|
|
The PEA is considered preliminary in nature and includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves have not yet demonstrated economic viability. Due to the uncertainty that may be attached to the inferred mineral resources, it cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will be upgraded to an indicated or measured mineral resource as a result of continued exploration or mineral reserves once economic considerations are applied. Therefore, there is no certainty that the production profile concluded in the PEA will be realized.
|
The PEA indicates that the Robertson Property is one of merit that warrants further development. The first phase of this development is recommended to be exploration drilling, metallurgical test work, environmental studies, and permitting and completion of a prefeasibility study. The cost of this work is estimated to be US$7.9 million as shown below.

Exploration and definition drilling consists of the following:
The Phase I should consist of drilling 40 HQ diameter diamond core holes and 42 RC holes having an average depth of 400-500 ft and totaling about 40,000 ft in the;
|
1.
|
Porphyry Zone: “Twinning” 10 percent (20 holes) of the historic drill holes by diamond core drilling to determine if “historic” Amax drilling data can be used with confidence to upgrade the level of confidence in the resources. In addition, a further 17 RC holes, totaling about 7,600 ft, to be drilled along the west and south boundaries of the Porphyry Zone to test for possible extensions to mineralization.
|
|
|
|
|
2.
|
Altenburg Hill/South Porphyry Area: Twenty-five RC holes totaling 12,400 ft.
|
|
|
|
|
3.
|
Gold Pan Zone: Twenty wide-spaced diamond core holes totaling 10,000 ft to verify continuity and grade returned in historic drilling.
|
|
|
|
|
4.
|
Altenburg Hill/South Porphyry: Based on results on the Phase I RC drilling follow up diamond core drilling (20 holes) is to be conducted in this area
|
The proposed metallurgical test work consists of variability testing, and will be performed on samples obtained both spatially and at depth for the oxide and transition to sulfide ore zones. This work will encompass;
|
·
|
preparation of composite material representing larger zones of each deposit to define the crush size and other process conditions;
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
crushing work index and abrasion testing;
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
mineralogical evaluation of column feed and products;
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
extensive column work to determine optimum crush size and other process conditions;
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
similar testing as was performed on oxide materials to be done on sulfide and transition zone materials;
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
additional processing parameters to be investigated including reagent use and concentrations;
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
leach evaluation on material that is below the cut-off grades of the various deposits, which was classified as waste based on dump leaching of run of mine, low grade materials;
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
Laboratory test work on up to 10 tonnes of 100% minus 300 mm (~12”) feed.

Note also that the PEA concerns only the relatively shallow portions of these three deposits: Gold Pan, Porphyry and Altenburg Hill. Other deposits such as Distal, 39A, Triplet Gulch, and a zone to the east of Gold Pan were not part of this study. However, all deposits form part of the 2011 calculation of the resources by Beacon Hill using a base case of US$1,350 per ounce (Inferred mineral resource of 191 million tonnes at 0.0143 oz Au/ton containing a total of 2.741 million ounces). It should be noted that the resources are reported with consideration for their reasonable expectation of economic extraction as defined using an optimized pit shell.
The PEA also shows the logistical advantages of the Robertson Property; namely:
|
·
|
Nevada State Highway 305, a paved all weather road, which is the main access to Barrick’s Cortez Operations (adjoins the Robertson Property to the south), crosses the south east corner of the property;
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
A network of gravel roads gives easy access to the gold resources at the Robertson Property;
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
The gold resources are on the south east edge of the Shoshone Range. The leach pads can be built on the basinal flat land, only a short haul from the planned pits;
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
The electric power transmission line that supplies Cortez parallels State Highway 306, and crosses the Robertson Property. The proposed gold recovery plant would be built adjoining the power transmission line (i.e. internal power lines will be very short);
|
|
|
|
|
·
|
Workers at Cortez are bussed from Elko for a 12 hour shift, four days per week. Personnel at the Robertson Property would enjoy a slightly shorter commute from Elko, or, alternatively, they could live in Crescent Valley, Nevada, which is eight miles away on the State Highway 306.
|
Outlook
Coral remains financially sound and is prepared to maintain all of its properties in good standing. When market conditions improve, Coral plans to proceed with the recommendations made in the 2012 PEA to move the Robertson Property towards the pre-feasibility stage. Coral would also consider a partnership to develop the Robertson and Gold Ridge projects with a financially strong company.

The Company had a net income of $527 for the year ended January 31, 2015 as compared to a net loss of $50,871 for the year ended January 31, 2014. The change from a net loss in 2014 to a net income in 2015 is primarily due to no impairment of mineral properties recorded in 2015. In 2014, the Company recorded an impairment write-down of $498,528. Share-based payments were $9,350 during the year ended January 31, 2014 compared to $259,163 for the year ended January 31, 2015, because no stock options were granted during the prior year. For the current year, the Company recognized a gain on the sale of 20,000 shares of a related company of $7,130, while it sold 370,000 shares of a related company in 2014 recognizing a gain on the sale of investments of $107,300.
During the year ended January 31, 2015, the Company closed a private placement raising gross proceeds of $705,500 to cover operating costs. As a result working capital increased in the current year. The majority of the Company’s expenditures relates to exploration activities, and is capitalized in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy and included in exploration and evaluation assets. Consequently, a significant amount of the Company’s working capital used throughout the years is converted from a current asset to a long-term asset as opposed to appearing on the Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. However, during the year ended January 31, 2014, the Company cancelled its interest in a number of claims that were insignificant to the core property, which decreased its exploration and evaluation assets from $19,264,220 at January 31, 2013 to $19,027,044 at January 31, 2014.
The Company continues to maintain reclamation bonds with the State of Nevada, which have a carrying value of $655,209 at January 31, 2015 as compared to $529,408 at January 31, 2014, an increase of $125,801. The Company plans to fulfill its obligation. However, as the result of planned exploration on the Robertson property, the Company has deferred the reclamation work at this time.

Quarterly costs fluctuate with non-cash items such as share-based payments, gains and losses on the sale of investments, deferred income tax, and foreign exchange variances.
Because the Company has not generated any income in recent years, total assets trend downward during the periods when no new funds are raised. However, the majority of expenditures are capitalized as exploration and evaluation assets. Therefore, total asset value does not decrease as dramatically as working capital will. When there is a sharp increase in total assets, it is often because cash was raised through the issuance of new equity shares.
During the quarter ending January 31, 2015, the Company recognized a deferred income tax recovery of $476,720. Income tax expense/recovery fluctuates yearly depending on the timing of expiration of U.S. tax loss carryforwards of the U.S. subsidiary, fluctuations in foreign exchange and difference in accounting and tax treatment of mineral properties.
During the quarter ending April 30, 2014, the Company issued 1,420,000 incentive options to directors, officers, consultants, and employees of the Company and recorded an expense of $237,547.
During the quarter ended April 30, 2014, the Company closed a private placement raising gross proceeds of $705,500 by issuing 4,150,000 common shares at a price of $0.17 per common share.
During the quarter ended April 30, 2013, the Company closed a private placement raising gross proceeds of $369,450 by issuing 3,694,500 units at a price of $0.10 per unit. Each Unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant (the "Warrants") exercisable at a price of $0.15 per warrant for a period of 24 months. During the quarter ended April 30, 2013, the Company completed a shares for debt settlement transaction to settle outstanding debt totaling $128,723 through the issuance of 514,892 common shares at a deemed value of $0.25 per common share.

Impairment of exploration and evaluation assets expenses were $nil for the three months ended January 31, 2015 compared to $498,528 for the three months ended January 31, 2014. The decrease of $498,528 compared to the three months ended January 31, 2014 was due to the Company determining in the comparative quarter that 184 of its claims were insignificant to the core property, and their carrying value was written off. No write-off occurred during the three months ended January 31, 2015.
|
|
|
2.
|
Professional fees for the three months ended January 31, 2015 were $17,255 compared to $59,557 in the three months ended January 31, 2014. The higher fees in the comparative quarter related to legal fees incurred in relation to joint venture discussions finalized in March 2014.
|
|
|
3.
|
Office and miscellaneous expenses for the three months ended January 31, 2015 were $16,071 compared to $3,767 in the comparative quarter, an increase of $12,304. During the quarter, the Company incurred additional charges for the issuance and management of its reclamation bonds.
|

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS FOR THE YEAR ENDED JANUARY 31, 2015

|
1.
|
Impairment of exploration and evaluation assets expenses were $nil for the year ended January 31, 2015 compared to $498,528 for the year ended January 31, 2014. The decrease of $498,528 compared to the prior year was due to the Company determining in the prior year that 184 of its claims were insignificant to the core property, and their carrying value was written off, while no write-off occurred during the current year.
|
|
|
2.
|
Professional fees for the year ended January 31, 2015 were $62,964 compared to $87,669 for the year ended January 31, 2014, an increase of $24,705. The higher fees in the previous year related to legal fees incurred in relation to joint venture discussions finalized in March 2014.
|
|
|
3.
|
Salaries and benefits in the year ended January 31, 2015 were $46,164 compared to $95,134 in the comparative year, a decrease of $48,970. During the current year, the Company reduced its salaries and benefits to reflect a decrease in operating activities.
|
|
|
4.
|
Share-based payments in the year ended January 31, 2015 were $259,163 compared to $9,350 in the previous year, an increase of $249,813. During the current year, the Company granted 1,420,000 stock options to directors, officers, consultants, and employees, no stock options were granted in the previous year.
|
|
|
5.
|
The Company sold shares held of a related party to provide cash for operations. The gain on these shares was $7,130 for 20,000 shares sold in the year ended January 31, 2015, compared to $107,300 for 370,000 shares sold in the year ended January 31, 2014.
|
|
|
6.
|
Income tax recovery for the year ended January 31, 2015 was $476,720 compared to $647,855 for the year ended January 31, 2014, a decrease of $171,135. Income tax expense/recovery fluctuates yearly depending on the timing of expiration of U.S. tax loss carryforwards of the U.S. subsidiary, fluctuations in foreign exchange and difference in accounting and tax treatment of mineral properties.
|
|
|
7.
|
As a result of the foregoing, net income for the year ended January 31, 2015 was $527, a decrease in loss of $51,114 compared to the year ended January 31, 2014.
|
|
|
8.
|
Unrealized gain on investments in securities during the year ended January 31, 2015 was $7,127 compared to a loss of $197,176 in the prior year, a net change of $204,303. The change is due to fluctuations in the fair market values of the securities held.
|
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Currently, the Company has no operating income, but is earning interest income on its entire cash holdings. Historically, the Company has funded its operations through equity financings and the exercise of stock options and warrants.
During the year ended January 31, 2015 the Company incurred exploration expenditures of $125,693, increasing the Company’s mineral property carrying value on the Robertson Property by $118,555. At January 31, 2015, the Company had working capital of $11,324 and cash of $147,575.

In March 2014, the Company received $705,500 in a non-brokered private placement with Barrick Gold Corporation, in which Barrick subscribed to 4,150,000 of the Company’s shares. These funds will be used to fund the next phase of development and to ensure that the Company has sufficient cash on hand to finance limited exploration work on its mineral properties and maintain administrative operations. The Company is in the exploration stage. The investment in and expenditures on the mineral property comprise substantially all of the Company’s assets. The recoverability of amounts shown for its mineral property interest and related deferred costs are dependent upon the continued support of its directors, the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, and the ability of the Company to obtain the financing necessary to complete development and achieve profitable operations in the future. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time.
Mineral exploration and development is capital intensive, and in order to maintain its interest the Company will be required to raise new equity capital in the future. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional new equity capital.
The change in cash flow activities can be summarized as follows:

Cash used in operating activities is primarily comprised of operating and administrative expenses, as the Company is at the exploration stage and has no sources of revenue. The decrease in cash used in operating activities during the year ended January 31, 2015 compared to the year ended January 31, 2014 is primarily due to lower adjustments for gains on the sale of investment, lower deferred income tax recovery and higher adjustments for share-based payments in the current period.
The Company’s expenditures of $229,840 on exploration and evaluation assets account for a significant portion of the funds used in investing activities during the year ended January 31, 2015. During the previous year, expenditures on exploration and evaluation activities were $218,352. During the year ended January 31, 2015, the Company disposed of 20,000 shares of a related Company for gross proceeds of $8,730 compared to 370,000 shares sold for gross proceeds of $136,899 during the year ended January 31, 2014.
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Proposed Transactions
The Company does not currently have any proposed transactions.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates include the recoverability of amounts receivable, the recoverable value of exploration and evaluation assets, the estimation of the useful lives of property and equipment, the recoverability and measurement of deferred income tax assets and liabilities, the provisions for estimated site restoration obligations, and the inputs used in accounting for share-based payments expense. While management believes that these estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates, and could have a material impact to the results of operations and cash flows of the Company.
New Accounting Standards Adopted by the Company
The mandatory adoption of the following new and revised accounting standards and interpretations on February 1, 2014 had no significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years presented:
IAS 36 – Impairment of Assets
In May 2013, the IASB issued an amendment to address the disclosure of information about the recoverable amount of impaired assets or a CGU for periods in which an impairment loss has been recognized or reversed. The amendments also address disclosure requirements applicable when an asset’s or a CGU’s recoverable amount is based on fair value less costs of disposal.
IFRIC 21 – Levies
In May 2013, the IASB issued IFRIC 21, Levies (“IFRIC 21”), an interpretation of IAS 37, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets (“IAS 37”), on the accounting for levies imposed by governments. IAS 37 sets out criteria for the recognition of a liability, one of which is the requirement for the entity to have a present obligation as a result of a past event (“obligating event”). IFRIC 21 clarifies that the obligating event that gives rise to a liability to pay a levy is the activity described in the relevant legislation that triggers the payment of the levy.

Accounting Standards and Amendments Issued But Not yet Effective
The following accounting standards were issued but not yet effective as of January 31, 2015:
IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers
In May 2014, the IASB issued IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("IFRS 15") which supersedes IAS 11 – Construction Contracts, IAS 18 – Revenue, IFRIC 13 – Customer Loyalty Programmes, IFRIC 15 – Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate, IFRIC 18 – Transfers of Assets from Customers, and SIC 31 – Revenue – Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services. IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive five-step framework for the timing and measurement of revenue recognition. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the final standard may have on its consolidated financial statements.
IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments
The IASB intends to replace IAS 39 – Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement in its entirety with IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”) which is intended to reduce the complexity in the classification and measurement of financial instruments. In February 2014, the IASB tentatively determined that the revised effective date for IFRS 9 would be January 1, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the final standard may have on its consolidated financial statements.
Annual improvements
In December 2013, the IASB issued the Annual Improvements 2010-2012 and 2011-2013 cycles, effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2014. In September 2014, the IASB issued the Annual Improvements 2012-2014 cycle, effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2016. These Annual Improvements made necessary but non-urgent amendments to existing IFRSs. These amendments are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Financial Instruments
The Company has classified its cash and cash equivalents as FVTPL. Marketable securities are classified as available for sale, and amounts due from related parties are classified as loans and receivables. Accounts payable and amounts due to related parties are classified as other liabilities. The fair values of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, due from related parties, due to related parties, and accounts payable approximate their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.
The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks such as credit risk, liquidity risk, and market risk.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents is exposed to credit risk. The Company is not exposed to significant credit risk on amounts receivable (excluding GST).
The Company manages credit risk, in respect of cash, by maintaining the majority of cash at high credit rated Canadian financial institutions.

Concentration of credit risk exists with respect to the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and reclamation deposits as the majority of the amounts are held with a single Canadian and US financial institution. The Company’s concentration of credit risk, and maximum exposure thereto, is as follows:

Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in satisfying financial obligations as they become due.
The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows required by operations and anticipated investing and financing activities. The Company had working capital of $11,324 at January 31, 2015 and a working capital deficit of $486,109 at January 31, 2014. The Company has cash at January 31, 2015 in the amount of $147,575 (2014 - $8,074) in order to meet short-term business requirements. At January 31, 2015, the Company had current liabilities of $154,653 (2014 - $499,993). Accounts payable have contractual maturities of approximately 30 days and are subject to normal trade terms. Amounts due to related parties are without stated terms of interest or repayment.
The Company will require significant cash funding to conduct its planned exploration programs, meet its administrative overhead costs, and maintain its mineral properties in 2016.
Market risk
Market risk consists of interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, and other price risk. These are discussed further below.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk consists of two components:
|
(i)
|
To the extent that payments made or received on the Company’s monetary assets and liabilities are affected by changes in the prevailing market interest rates, the Company is exposed to interest rate cash flow risk.
|
|
|
|
|
(ii)
|
To the extent that changes in prevailing market rates differ from the interest rate in the Company’s monetary assets and liabilities, the Company is exposed to interest rate price risk.
|

Based on the net Canadian dollar denominated asset and liability exposures as at January 31, 2015, a 10% (2014 – 10%) fluctuation in the Canadian/US exchange rates will impact the Company’s net loss and comprehensive loss by approximately $74,093 (2014 - $45,063).
The Company manages foreign currency risk by minimizing the value of financial instruments denominated in foreign currency. The Company has not entered into any foreign currency contracts to mitigate this risk.
Other price risk
Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market prices, other than those arising from interest rate risk or foreign currency risk. The Company is exposed to other price risk with respect to its investment securities, as they are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices.
The Company’s ability to raise capital to fund mineral resource exploration is subject to risks associated with fluctuations in mineral resource prices. Management closely monitors commodity prices, individual equity movements, and the stock market to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company are responsible for evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, and have concluded, based on our evaluation, that they are effective as at January 31, 2015 to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under Canadian securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified in those rules and regulations.
Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company are responsible for designing internal controls over financial reporting, or causing them to be designed under their supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB.
|
|
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS FOR THE YEAR ENDED JANUARY 31, 2015
Page 24
|
The Company assessed the design of the internal controls over financial reporting as at January 31, 2015 and concluded that there are material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting, which are as follows:
|
a)
|
Due to the limited number of staff resources, the Company believes there are instances where a lack of segregation of duties exist to provide effective controls; and
|
|
|
|
|
b)
|
Due to the limited number of staff resources, the Company may not have the necessary in-house knowledge to address complex accounting and tax issues that may arise.
|
The weaknesses and their related risks are not uncommon in a company the size of Coral because of limitations in size and number of staff. The Company believes it has taken steps to mitigate these risks by increasing additional accounting personnel, consulting outside advisors, and involving the Audit Committee and Board of Directors in reviews and consultations where necessary. However, these weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting could result in a more than remote likelihood that a material misstatement would not be prevented or detected. The Company believes that it must take additional steps to further mitigate these risks by consulting outside advisors on a more regular and timely basis.
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended January 31, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
Approval
The Board of Directors of the Company has approved the disclosure contained in this MD&A.
Cautionary Statement

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations are disclosed in the Company’s documents filed from time to time via SEDAR with the Canadian regulatory agencies to whose policies we are bound. Forward-looking statements are based on the estimates and opinions of management on the date the statements are made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements should conditions or our estimates or opinions change. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factor that may cause the Company’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievement expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.
