Highlights for the Three-month Period Ended September 30, 2023

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2023:

in connection with our gold recovery operations, we produced 1,065 ounces of raw gold. We sold 1,308 fine ounces of gold at an average price of US$1,855 per ounce.
cash on hand, excluding restricted cash, increased to $8.4 million at September 30, 2023, from $5.8 million at December 31, 2022.
a total of 14 diamond core boreholes totaling 3,568 metres completed by the Company's in-house drilling crews, with drilling efforts targeting the further expansion / definition of the emerging Boomerang East gold system.
expansion drilling successfully amalgamated the Boomerang East / Boomerang West zones into a single, stacked, multi-shoot gold system extending approximately 700 metres down-plunge.

definition drilling further established the broad, robust nature, and down-plunge continuity of the main Lower Shoot gold mineralization.

Victor Nkansa, the Company's CFO since 2015, died in an auto accident which was press released on August 1, 2023. William Asiedu who has been our Chief Accountant at our mine camp for 10 plus years, will replace Mr. Nkansa.

Overview

We are engaged in the exploration of gold properties exclusively in Ghana, West Africa in the search for mineral deposits and mineral reserves which could be economically and legally extracted or produced. Our exploration activities include the review of existing geological data, grid establishment and soil geochemical sampling, geological mapping, geophysical surveying, trenching and pitting to test gold-in-soil anomalies and diamond core and/or reverse circulation (RC) drilling to test targets followed by infill drilling, if successful, to define a mineral reserve.

Our mining concession portfolio currently consists of 225.87 square kilometers comprised of 33.65 square kilometers for our Kibi project, 51.67 square kilometers for our Banso project, 55.28 square kilometers for our Muoso project, 44.76 square kilometers for our Kwabeng project, and 40.51 square kilometers for our Pameng project, or 55,873 acres, pursuant to the leased areas set forth in our mining leases.

Technical Disclosure

The hardrock, lode gold exploration technical information relating to our mineral properties contained in this MD&A is based upon information prepared by or the preparation of which was supervised by Yves Clement, P.Geo., our Vice-President, Exploration. Mr. Clement is a Qualified Person as defined by Canadian Securities National Instrument 43-101 concerning standards of disclosure for mineral projects.

Plan of Operations

Our strategic plan is, with respect to our mineral projects, to conduct an exploration program, consisting of the following:

at our Kibi project:

● follow-up trenching of Zone 1 - Zone 2 - Zone 3 early stage gold shoots / showings to guide future mineral resource expansion drilling efforts;

● prospecting, reconnaissance geology, hand augering and/or scout pitting, and trenching of high priority gold-in-soil anomalies and grassroots gold targets across the extent of the Apapam concession; and

● a diamond core drill program of approximately 15,000 metres, at an estimated cost of $850,000, to be implemented utilizing the Company's in-house operated drill rigs; consisting of a combination of follow up drilling of early stage gold targets and scout drilling of prospective litho-structural gold settings within the mineral resource footprint area; and scout drilling of new grassroots gold targets across the Apapam concession.

at our Kwabeng project:

● ongoing geological compilation, prospecting, soil geochemical sampling, hand augering and/or scout pitting, and trenching to identify and/or further advance grassroots targets; and

● the continuation of placer gold recovery operations at this project (commenced in March 2013);

at our Pameng project:

● ongoing geological compilation, prospecting, soil geochemical sampling, hand augering and/or scout pitting, and trenching to identify and/or further advance grassroots targets; and

at our Banso and Muoso projects:

● ongoing geological compilation, prospecting, soil geochemical sampling, hand augering and/or scout pitting, and trenching to identify and/or further advance grassroots targets; and

● the continuation of placer gold recovery operations at these projects (commenced in 2015);

As at the date of this annual report, we have estimated $500,000 for the cost for soil sampling, hand augering and/or scout pitting, and trenching at our Kibi, Kwabeng, Pameng, Banso and Muoso projects.

As part of our current business strategy, we plan to continue engaging technical personnel under contract where possible as our management believes that this strategy, at its current level of development, provides the best services available in the circumstances, leads to lower overall costs and provides the best flexibility for our business operations. For example, the purchase of an exploration drill as opposed to using contract drillers has generated significant savings to the company.

We anticipate that our ongoing efforts will continue to be focused on the exploration and development of our projects and completing acquisitions in strategic areas. We will look to acquire further interests in gold mineralized projects that fall within the criteria of providing a geological basis for development of drilling initiatives that can enhance shareholder value by demonstrating the potential to define reserves.

We continued with our recovery of placer gold operations at our Kwabeng Banso and Muoso properties in 2022. We contract out as many services as possible on our placer gold recovery operations to local Ghanaians in order to maximize cost efficiencies.

Our fiscal 2023 budget to carry out our plan of operations is approximately $2,350,000 as follows and as disclosed in our 20-F annual report under Item 4.B - Information on Xtra-Gold - Business Overview:

- 3 -

Soil sampling / trenching	$	500,000
Drilling		850,000
Administration		750,000
Stock-based compensation (non-cash)		250,000
TOTAL	$	2,350,000

These expenditures are subject to change if management decides to scale back or accelerate operations.

Our company has historically relied on funds from gold recovery from alluvial operations, equity and debt financings to finance its ongoing operations. Existing working capital, possible debt instruments, further private placements and anticipated cash flow from placer gold recovery operations are expected to be adequate to fund our company's operations over the next year. During the current year and subsequent to 2023, we will not require additional capital to implement our plan of operations.

Trends

Gold prices closed at $1,871 per ounce at September 30, 2023, slightly below the 2023 nine-month average of $1,932 per ounce. Gold prices continue to show resilience in 2023, in part due to continued global inflation and geopolitical concerns.

Gold prices closed in 2022 at $1,814 per ounce, just above the 2022 average of $1,801 per ounce. Gold prices were strong early in 2022, and fell throughout the year, recording the low for 2022 occurred in November. We saw some price recovery in December and to date in 2023. We continue to see positive indicators for gold prices in the future.

Interest rate increases throughout 2022 strengthened the US dollar as a safe haven, with the value of the US dollar reaching a 20-year peak in September 2022. With the Federal Reserve acknowledging that the disinflation process has commenced, most of the tightening cycle is believed to be completed. As a result, the comparative strength of the US dollar is expected to be reduced in 2023.

Gold does well in times of uncertainty. National, corporate and individual debt levels increase this uncertainty and leave less room to safely manage any potential crisis.

Gold prices per ounce over the period ended September 30, 2023 and previous two years are as follows:

		9 Months 2023		2022		2021
High	$	2,048	$	2,039	$	1,943
Low		1,811		1,629		1,684
Average		1,931		1,801		1,800

The tone for the precious metals market in the near future will depend on the U.S. dollar strength. The US Federal Reserve has raised interest rates to combat inflation, and has indicated that the pace of rate increases could slow going forward. The future focus will be on how much economic growth, government deficits and debts affect the ability of the Federal Reserve to increase future rates or shrink its balance sheet. Any further economic wobble or extension of the time to address the underlying issues could create uncertainty about the US economy, which would be good for gold prices.

Overall, a stronger U.S. dollar may lead to reduced interest in the gold exploration sector.

Currently, Covid-19 has not affected any of the Company's operations in Ghana. The first cases of Covid-19 were detected much later in Ghana than other parts of the world, and Government action has limited the incidence of transmission. The Company continues to monitor the potential effects on its operations and is implementing protocol to hopefully help in minimize its impact. However, investors are cautioned this is an evolving issue, and that there is not guarantee the Company's protocols will be effective.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 as Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022

Our company reported a net gain after tax for the three months ended September 30, 2023 of $513,633 (September 30, 2022 - loss of $70,252). Our company's basic and diluted gain per share for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $0.01 (September 30, 2022 - $(0.00)). While both quarters benefited from gold recovery results, foreign exchange losses were significantly different in the comparable periods.

- 5 -

The weighted average number of shares outstanding was 46,334,336 (Q3 2022 - 46,661,478). Average shares outstanding were reduced through share repurchases. Average fully diluted shares in Q3 2023 were 48,928,836 (Q3 2022 - 48,682,478), with the increase as compared to basic shares being in the money stock options in both periods. These items did not materially affect earnings per share.

We incurred expenses of $266,079 in the three-month period ended September 30, 2023 (September 30, 2022 - $94,622). Exploration expense was $133,302 as compared to a recovery of $96,300 in Q3 2022. The 2022 quarter benefited from moving some 2022 expenses previously reported in exploration into gold sales expenses. We expense all exploration costs, which included significant supplies in Q3 2022. All other expense categories were very similar in the two periods. Depreciation in Q3 2023 was similar to that in Q3 2022. General and administrative expense in Q3 2023 of $99,692 decreased slightly from $153,934 in Q3 2022 due to stock-based compensation in the Q3 2022 period.

Exploration activities for the September 2023 quarter continued to focus on the Company's flagship Kibi Gold Project (Apapam Mining Lease) with the continuation of the Zone 3 resource expansion target generation drill program. Fourteen (14) diamond core boreholes totalling 3,568 metres ("m") were completed by the Company's in-house drill crews with drilling efforts primarily targeting the further expansion / definition of the emerging Boomerang East gold system.

The present Boomerang East drilling activities form part of an exploration initiative targeting multiple resource expansion opportunities within the south-western (Zone 3) portion of the gold mineralization-hosting 1^st-order F2 synclinorium fold structure; over 1 km beyond the limits of the currently defined Mineral Resource Estimate (the "2021 MRE", see the Company's news release of November 1, 2021). Drill results for a total of 120 holes (22,860.5 m) have been reported to date for the ongoing Zone 3 resource expansion drill program initiated following the database close-out date for the current 2021 MRE.

The assay results for 30 boreholes (7,309 m) completed from early December 2022 to late July 2023 on the ongoing Zone 3 resource expansion drilling program, including 3 holes completed during the September 2023 quarter (#KBDD23526 - #KBDD23528), were reported by the Company on September 8, 2023, including the following highlights:

Expansion Drilling (Boomerang East SW Strike-Extension - Boomerang West Down-Plunge)

- 9.0 m at 5.27 grams per tonne gold ("g/t Au"), including 4.5 m at 8.98 g/t Au, from 65.5 m; and 15.4 m at 1.59 g/t Au, including 7.5 m at 2.01 g/t Au, from 120.0 m KBDD23524

- 22.0 m at 1.17 g/t Au, including 15.7 m at 1.50 g/t Au, from 194.0 m in KBDD23522

Definition Drilling (Main "Lower Shoot" Gold Zone - Boomerang East)

- 51.0 m at 1.31 g/t Au, including 16.5 m at 3.09 g/t Au, from 127.0 m in KBDD23528

- 53.0 m at 1.06 g/t Au, including 30.0 m at 1.60 g/t Au, from 31.0 m in KBDD23527

- 33.0 m at 1.17 g/t Au, including 19.0 m at 1.76 g/t Au, from 7.0 m in KBDD23519

Expansion Drilling (Boomerang East - SE Lateral / Down-Dip Extension)

- 9.0 m at 1.00 g/t Au from 40.0 m; and 33.0 m at 0.50 g/t Au from 184.0 m; and 29.0 m at 0.35 g/t Au from 304.0 m; and 6.0 m at 1.67 g/t Au from 357.0 m in KBDD22504

- 9.1 m at 0.75 g/t Au from 77.0; and 10.5 m at 0.71 g/t Au from 129.0; and 41.0 m at 0.72 g/t Au from 294.0 in KBDD22505

- 47.0 m at 0.51 g/t Au from 210.0 m in KBDD23523

Present 3D litho-structural modelling appears to indicate that the Boomerang East gold system occupies a F2 meso-scale (parasitic) fold hinge structure developed on the north-western limb of the mineralization-controlling 1^st-order F2 synclinorium fold. With the mineralization occurring as a NE-plunging system of stacked, flat-lying to concave-shaped, shallow SE-dipping gold shoots hosted within folded / strained diorite bodies and/or associated metasedimentary rock - diorite contacts. Drilling to date has outlined three (3) principal gold shoots, including the Upper Shoot (s), the Lower Shoot, and the Footwall Shoot, across an approximately 250 m cross-plunge distance. The Lower Shoot, presently the most prominent mineralization shoot of the Boomerang East gold system, has so far been delineated from practically surface to a down-plunge depth of approximately 425 m along the fold hinge structure (approximately 315 m vertical depth from surface), and across an approximately 200 m NW-SE lateral distance. The present expansion drilling results from the south-western extension of the Boomerang East gold system successfully amalgamated the Boomerang East and Boomerang West resource expansion targets into a single, major, multi-shoot gold system extending over approximately 600 m strike and 700 m down-plunge distances, respectively.

- 6 -

We did not conduct any exploration activities on our Kwabeng, Pameng, Banso and Muoso projects during the current reporting period.

We recognized gains related to other items of $1,049,668 in Q3 2023 (Q3 2022 - $289,282). Gold sales contributed most of the gains in both periods. However, the gains in both periods were partly offset by losses on our investment portfolio. The company recognized a foreign exchange gain in Q3 2023 as compared to a loss in Q3 2022. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2023, we sold 1,308 fine ounces of gold at an average price of US$1,810 for net proceeds of $1,050,434 (Q3 2022 - 1,161 fine ounces of gold at an average price of US$1,768 for net proceeds of $1,019,886). Gold sales relating to our share of gold is not recognized until the risks and rewards of ownership passed to the buyer. These placer gold recovery operations were contracted to local Ghanaian groups. We pay a 5% government royalty on our gold sales. Using local contractors promotes the local economy while avoiding illegal workings on our projects.

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2023, our company had a foreign exchange gain of $123,945 (Q3 2022 - loss of $475,488) mostly due to fluctuations in the U.S. dollar against the Ghana cedi and the Canadian dollar. The company holds a substantial amount of its investment portfolio in Canadian dollars and this portfolio value fluctuates with the US dollar fluctuations. In Ghana, the cedi continued to show weakness in the 2023 period but held steady in Q3.

Our company recognized a trading and holding loss on marketable securities in Q3 2023 of $218,404 (Q3 2022 - loss of $298,739). Portfolio results in Q3 2023 showed resilience as compared to Q3 2022. Unrealized gains and losses reflect mark-to-market changes in the investment portfolio during a period. A realized gain is recognized when securities are sold from the investment portfolio, being the difference between the selling price and the purchase price of the security sold. At the time of the sale, any mark-to-market gain or loss which is related to the security sold, previously recognized in unrealized gains and losses, is reversed.

Other income of $93,693 in Q3 2023 (Q3 2022 - $43,623) mostly relates to interest and dividends on investment portfolio assets.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 as Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022

Our company's net gain for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $1,771,894 as compared to a net gain of $796,426 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $975,468. Improved foreign exchange gains and decreased exploration generated most of the improved profit in the YTD 2023.

Our company's basic and diluted net gain per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $0.04 compared to a net gain of $0.02 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The weighted average number of shares outstanding was 46,398,474 at September 30, 2023 compared to 46,568,638 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in the weighted average number of shares outstanding can be attributed to the share repurchases in 2023. The fully diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding was 49,046,974 at September 30, 2023 compared to 48,589,638 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The fully diluted share positions did not materially affect the earning per share in either period.

We incurred expenses of $1,101,132 in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to $1,244,388 in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, a reduction of $143,256. Exploration expense in 2022 reflects consulting help to compile and interpret information and replacement parts for the drill.

We reported a gain of $3,759,623 related to other items for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to a gain of $2,818,316 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Foreign exchange gains created most of the change in income.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we sold 3,978 ounces of fine gold from our gold recovery operations compared to 3,778 ounces of fine gold from our share of the placer gold operations received during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Recent Capital Raising Transactions

Our activities, principally the exploration and acquisition of properties for gold and other metals, may be financed through joint ventures or through the completion of equity transactions such as equity offerings and the exercise of stock options and warrants.

- 7 -

There were no capital raising transactions in 2023 or 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We are an exploration company focused on gold and associated commodities and do not have operating revenues; and therefore, we must utilize our current cash reserves, income from placer gold sales, income from investments, funds obtained from the exercise of stock options and warrants and other financing transactions to maintain our capacity to meet the planned exploration programs, or to fund any further development activities. There is no certainty that future financing will be available to us in the amounts or at the times desired on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

Cash on hand was increased by $2,663,182 during the first nine months of 2023. Operations provided all of the increase in cash. Cash of $1,432,114 was used to purchase investments in the first nine months of 2023 while proceeds from the sale of investments generated $1,301,373 of cash. Inventory was reduced by $564,209 due to the timing of smelt shipments. Payables were increased, mostly due to accruals and payments for gold sales and income taxes payable in Ghana related to operations. Other operating expenses were mostly cash neutral.

At September 30, 2023, accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased by $118,087 to $1,425,252, mostly due to income tax accruals and sales-based accruals for expenses related to gold sales. Our cash and cash equivalents as at September 30, 2023 were sufficient to pay these liabilities. We believe that our company has sufficient working capital to achieve our 2023 operating plan. However, our historical losses raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

At September 30, 2023, we had total cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $8,444,182 (December 31, 2022 - $6,077,322). Working capital as of September 30, 2023 was $10,817,840 (December 31, 2022 - $8,772,217). The 2023 increase in working capital mostly reflects the revenue from gold recovery.

Our shares of common stock, warrants and stock options outstanding as at the date of this MDA, September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022 were as follows:

	October 31, 2023	September 30, 2023	December 31, 2022
Common Shares	46,282,717	46,297,717	46,446,917
Warrants	-	-	-
Stock Options	2,586,000	2,586,000	2,586,000
Fully diluted	48,868,717	48,883,717	49,032,917

Subsequent to September 30, 2023, 15,000 shares were cancelled.

As of the date of this MD&A, the exercise of all outstanding options would raise approximately $0.7 million, however such exercise is not anticipated until the market value of our shares of common stock increases in value.

We remain debt free and our credit and interest rate risk is limited to interest-bearing assets of cash and bank or government guaranteed investment vehicles. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities are short-term and non-interest bearing.

Our liquidity risk with financial instruments is minimal as excess cash is invested with a Canadian financial institution in government-backed securities or bank-backed guaranteed investment certificates.

Our fiscal 2023 budget to carry out our plan of operations is approximately $2,350,000 as disclosed in our Plan of Operations section above and in our 20-F annual report under Item 4.B - Information on Xtra-Gold - Business Overview". These expenditures are subject to change if management decides to scale back or accelerate operations. We believe that we are adequately capitalized to achieve our operating plan for fiscal 2023. However, our losses raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Going Concern

The Company is in development as an exploration company. It may need financing for its exploration and acquisition activities. Although the Company has incurred a gain of $1,771,894 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, it has an accumulated a deficit of $19,573,504. Results for the period ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of future results. The uncertainty of gold recovery and he fact the Company does not have a demonstrably viable business to provide future funds, raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the financial statements. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company's ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan, which is typical for junior exploration companies. The financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of asset amounts or the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Management of the Company ("Management") is of the opinion that sufficient financing will be obtained from external sources and further share issuances will be made to meet the Company's obligations. The Company's discretionary exploration activities do have considerable scope for flexibility in terms of the amount and timing of exploration expenditure, and expenditures may be adjusted accordingly if required.

Purchase of Significant Equipment

We consider the availability of equipment to conduct our exploration activities. In 2022 we purchased one pickup. In 2021 we purchased three pickups. In 2020 we purchased a second drill, a dozer, some pickups and a generator. While we do not expect we will be buying any additional equipment in the foreseeable future, we will continue to assess the situation and weigh our program needs against equipment availability.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

Our company has no off balance sheet arrangements.

Fair value of financial assets and liabilities

We invest all excess cash primarily in time deposits, money market funds, corporate debt securities, equities, limited partnerships, and rights and warrants.

We classify all marketable debt securities that have stated maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase as cash equivalents and those with stated maturities of greater than three months as marketable securities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We determine the appropriate classification of our investments in marketable debt securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluate such designation at each balance sheet date. We have classified and accounted for our marketable debt securities as trading securities. After consideration of our risk versus reward objectives, as well as our liquidity requirements, we may sell these debt securities prior to their stated maturities. For all of our marketable debt securities we have elected the fair value option, for which changes in fair value are recorded in other income (expense), net. We determine any realized gains or losses on the sale of marketable debt securities on a specific identification method, and we record such gains and losses as a component of other income (expense), net.

The following tables summarize our debt securities, at their fair value, by significant investment categories as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Critical Accounting Estimates and Changes in Accounting Policies

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant areas requiring the use of estimates include the carrying value and recoverability of mineral properties, inputs used in the calculation of stock-based compensation and warrants, inputs used in the calculation of the asset retirement obligation, and the valuation allowance applied to deferred income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and would impact future results of operations and cash flows.
