NOTE 10 - Segment Information

We have organized our operations into one operating segment, which conducts exploration and evaluation of mineral properties and thus has identified one reportable segment: Exploration and Evaluation. In determining the reportable segment, management evaluated the basis of organization of the Company, including that all of the entity's business activities are focused on acquisition, exploration, and development of mineral properties in the same geographic location and the Company manages the business activities on a consolidated basis. The Company has not yet derived any revenues, and the Company's costs are mainly derived from the same activities on our properties. Additionally, all the mineral properties have similar discovery and permitting processes, as well as expected shared future facilities and gold exploration targets.

Dakota Gold's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is our chief executive officer. Exploration and general and administrative expenses, which are reported on the income statement and reconciles to net loss therein, are the measures of loss used by the CODM to allocate resources to our exploration and evaluation activities, and the CODM monitors budget versus actual results to assess the performance of the segment. The CODM also reviews expenditures for any capital or long-lived asset acquisitions, which are included in the statement of cash flows. Total segment assets are reported on the balance sheet. Segment information is prepared on the same basis that the CODM manages our segment, evaluates financial results, and makes key operating decisions.

The significant segment expenses for the Exploration and Evaluation operating segment that are regularly provided to the CODM are drilling and drilling related costs, study costs and labor. Within general and administration costs, the significant expenses are labor costs.
