Such obligations, which are initially estimated based on discounted cash flow estimates, are accreted to full value over time through charges to accretion expense. Corresponding asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset and depreciated over the asset&#8217;s remaining useful life.

That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS.

The 2015 Newmont Lease has a term of twenty years and for as long thereafter as any mining, development or processing operations are being conducted on a continuous basis. The 2015 Newmont Lease contains customary terms and conditions, including an advance royalty and a 2.5% net smelter returns production royalty on the Subleased Properties payable to the Owners.

The Mining Sublease calls for the Company to make minimum work expenditures for the first four years of the Mining Sublease, followed by annual advanced minimum royalty payments to Newmont to maintain the Mining Sublease in good standing. The Sublease may be terminated any time after providing 90 days written notice of termination. If the required minimum work commitment of $<font style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">500,000</font> has not been satisfied prior to termination the Company must pay Newmont the difference between the $<font style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">500,000</font> required minimum work commitment and costs already incurred by the Company towards the required minimum work commitment.

In January 2018, the Company granted 436,000 10-year option to purchase shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.80. The stock options granted to employees vest one-third on January 29, 2018, 2019 and 2020. The 436,000 options were valued on the grant date at approximately $1.19 per option or a total of approximately $520,000 using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: stock price of $2.36 per share (based on the sale of its common stock stock in a private placement at $2.80), volatility of 41%, expected term of 10 years, and a risk free interest rate of 2.70%. Consequently, the Company recognized stock based compensation of approximately $520,000 during the year ended December 31, 2017, in connection with these transactions. As of December 31, 2017, the remaining balance of unvested stock options related to fiscal year 2017 bonus compensations amounted to approximately $520,000.</div> <div style="CLEAR:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;MARGIN: 0pt 0px;

FONT-SIZE: 10pt">20</font> million (the &#8220;Facility&#8221;). The Company&#8217;s ability to draw down on the Facility was subject to the negotiation and execution of definitive agreements, completion by the Lender of its due diligence review and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. The Facility, when completed, would have been available for up to three draws occurring during a period of five months following the closing date. As a condition to any such draw, the Company would have been required to raise equity financing not less than the amount drawn. Amounts drawn under the Facility would be secured by a lien on the Relief Canyon Mine and processing facilities and would bear interest at <font style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"> 9.0</font>% per annum. Amounts drawn would mature three years following the date drawn, with monthly principal payments commencing on the earlier of June 30, 2018 or upon achievement of commercial production at the Relief Canyon Mine. The proceeds of the Facility would be use to advance the Relief Canyon project towards production. The Company has paid the Lender a structuring fee of $<font style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">200,000</font> and $<font style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">105,000</font> for costs associated with their legal and operational due diligence efforts.

The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of long-lived assets, including mineral rights, may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets in the exploration stage are monitored for impairment based on factors such as the Company&#8217;s continued right to explore the area, exploration reports, assays, technical reports, drill results and the Company&#8217;s continued plans to fund exploration programs on the property, and whether sufficient work has been performed to indicate that the carrying amount of the mineral property cost carried forward as an asset will not be fully recovered. The tests for long-lived assets in the exploration stage are monitored for impairment based on factors such as current market value of the long-lived assets and results of exploration, future asset utilization, business climate, mineral prices and future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the related assets.</div> <div style="CLEAR:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> &#160;</div> <div style="CLEAR:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif" align="justify">Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. When necessary, impaired assets are written down to estimated fair value based on the best information available. Estimated fair value is generally based on either appraised value or measured by discounting estimated future cash flows. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate discounted future cash flows. Accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from such estimates. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The Company did not record any impairment of its long-lived assets at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.</div> </div><table border="0" style="width:100%; table-layout:fixed;" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tr><td></td></tr></table> <div style="MARGIN: 0pt 0px;
