NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS	NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS Santa Fe Gold Corporation (the “Company”, “our” or “we”) is a U.S. mining company incorporated in Delaware in August 1991. Our general business strategy is to acquire, explore, develop and mine mineral properties. The Company elected on August 26, 2015, to file for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy protection, Case # 15-11761 (MFW) and that case was dismissed on June 15, 2016. The Summit Silver-Gold Project, the Lordsburg Copper Project, Black Canyon Mica Project, Planet MIO Project, all claims and other assets were lost in the process. After the Company emerged from the bankruptcy with a management team of two with no assets, we developed a business plan to raise equity funds to acquire new mining claims, a potential processing plant or arrangements with a processing plant in an acceptable geographic location to potential new mining claims. In August 2017, the Company acquired all the capital stock of Bullard’s Peak Corporation and the related patented and unpatented claims in the Black Hawk district of New Mexico from Black Hawk Consolidated Mines Company for a purchase price of $3,115,365. The mine property is known as the Alhambra mine site. The transaction was finalized and closed in April 2019. The mining property acquired is an asset in our subsidiary, Mineral Acquisitions, LLC. In January 2019 the Company has acquired right of use on two properties in western New Mexico, consisting of eight (8) patented claims and two unpatented claims, all located in the Steeple Rock Mining District, Grant County, New Mexico and the related water rights lease agreements. The two properties are known as the Billali Mine and the Jim Crow Imperial Mine. The Company has made improvements to the Jim Crow Imperial mine and has commenced mining operations during the third calendar quarter of 2020. In the last week of November 2020, our mine manager contacted the COVID-19 virus and later two of our employee miners contacted it also and we shut the mining operation down and currently the mines and equipment are under a maintenance protocol. Currently it is anticipated to reopen the mines in late 2022 when we the complete the construction of our mill operation in Duncan, Arizona. The Company has no current COVID-19 problems. We are considered an “exploration stage” company under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) S-K 1300. The mining leases and other mineral rights we have control of, however, none of them contain any proven or probable reserves, as defined under S-K 1300. As such, they are all currently considered “exploratory” in nature. The new S-K 1300 guide replaced SEC Guide 7 and went into effect for the Company beginning with our fiscal year July 1, 2021. We are now required to file our Forms 10-Q and 10-K reports with the Commission aligned to S-K 1300 requirements. S-K 1300 is aligned more closely to CRIRSC definitions and shares similarities with, but not equal to, other reporting codes applicable to the mining industry such as NI 43-101. Covid-19 On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (the “COVID-19 outbreak”) and the risks to the international community as the virus spreads globally beyond its point of origin. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. At this time, we cannot foresee whether the outbreak of COVID-19 will continue be effectively contained, nor can we predict the severity and duration of its impact. If the outbreak of COVID-19 or other infectious viruses are not effectively and timely controlled, our business plans and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected as a result of the potential deteriorating economic outlook or other factors that we cannot foresee. Any of these factors and other factors beyond our control could have an adverse effect on the overall business environment and cause our business to suffer in ways that we cannot predict at this time and that may materially and adversely impact our business plans, financial condition and results of operations. With three of our mine employees contacted the COVID-19 virus in the last week of November 2020, we shut the mining operation down and currently the mines and equipment are under a maintenance protocol. With the current COVID -19 situation and the current inability to process the mined ore we anticipate not restarting the mining operation until late 2022, depending on the projected completion of our mill operation in Duncan, Arizona. At this time, we cannot foresee whether the potential COVID-19 or any other variants that may affect our future operations, nor if an occurrence should happen, can we predict the severity and duration of its impact. Our business plans and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected as a result of the potential deteriorating economic outlook or other factors that we cannot foresee. Any of these factors and other factors beyond our control could have an adverse effect on the overall business environment and cause our business to suffer in ways that we cannot predict at this time and that may materially and adversely impact our business plans, financial condition and results of future operations. Currently, COVID-19 and any variants has had no additional effect on the Company.
