Mineral Claims, Inc. (&ldquo;CMC&rdquo;) entered into an Exploration Agreement with Option to Purchase (&ldquo;Agreement&rdquo;).
The Company granted to CMC the exclusive right and option to enter upon and conduct mineral exploration activities (the &ldquo;Exploration
License&rdquo;) for Metallic Minerals on the Company&rsquo;s Dragon Mine minesite in Utah (the &ldquo;Mining Claims&rdquo;).&nbsp;
Metallic Minerals are defined to include minerals with a high specific gravity and metallic luster, such as gold, silver, lead,
copper, zinc, molybdenum, titanium, tungsten, uranium, tin, iron, etc., but shall exclude any such Metallic Minerals that are intermingled
within any economically-recoverable, non-metallic mineral deposits located at or above an elevation of 5,590 feet above sea level.
Non-metallic minerals include clay and iron oxide, the minerals mined by the Company.&nbsp; The Company believes that all economic
recoverable non-metallic mineral deposits are well above 5,590 feet above sea level. The Exploration License is for a period of
ten years.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">In consideration of the Exploration License
CMC paid the Company $350,000 upon the execution of the agreement and paid it $150,000 on the first anniversary of the Exploration
License in December 2018. CMC will pay the Company $250,000 on or before each subsequent anniversary during the Exploration License
term following the first anniversary of the Effective Date of this Agreement unless the Exploration License is terminated earlier
by CMC by exercising the option or failing to make the required payment for the Exploration License.</P>

Copper and Gold, Inc. (CMC&rsquo;s successor) (&ldquo;Tintic&rdquo;) agreed to lower the exercise price of the Option to $1,050,000
and Tintic immediately exercised the Option. The Company also provided Tintic with a Right of First Offer which expired on December
21, 2027 and can be extended to December 21, 2032 for $250,000.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Upon the exercise of the option, the Company

shall mean the activities incident to mineral extraction, permitting, and any operations by CMC or the Company relating to the
removal of minerals, respectively, that are or may reasonably be conducted on the Mining Claims, including the exploration for,

states that the parties understand that the Company is willing to enter into the Agreement only if it is assured that CMC will
not have any right to unreasonably interfere with the Company&rsquo;s current mining operations and possible future Mining Operations
on the Mining Claims.</P>

was reported in China. Since then, COVID-19 has spread globally, to include Canada, the United States and several European countries.
The spread of COVID-19 from China to other countries has resulted in the World Health Organization (WHO) declaring the outbreak
of COVID-19 as a &ldquo;pandemic,&rdquo; or a worldwide spread of a new disease, on March 11, 2020. Many countries around the world
have imposed quarantines and restrictions on travel and mass gatherings to slow the spread of the virus and have closed non-essential
businesses.</P>

COVID-19 has, to some extent, impacted the Company&rsquo;s access to certain of its professional advisors. The small size of the

judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. As the events continue to evolve with respect to the pandemic,
our estimates may materially change in future periods.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Cash balances, accounts receivable and
derivative financial instruments are financial instruments potentially subject to credit risk. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained
in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed the federally insured limits. Management periodically reviews and assesses
the financial condition of the banks to mitigate the risk of loss.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Company periodically reviews the carrying
amounts of long-lived assets to determine whether current events or circumstances warrant adjustment to such carrying amounts.
Long-lived assets are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may
not be recoverable. When such events occur, the Company compares the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from
the use and eventual disposition of the asset to its carrying amount. If this comparison indicates that there is an impairment,
the amount of the impairment is typically calculated using discounted expected future cash flows where observable fair values are
not readily determinable. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of assets. Assets to be disposed
of are carried at the lower of their financial statement carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell. The Company has determined
that there was no impairment of its long-lived assets as of March 31, 2021 and 2020.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Company follows ASC 718 (Stock Compensation)
and ASU 2018-07 (Compensation &ndash; Stock Compensation), which provide guidance in accounting for share-based awards exchanged
for services rendered and requires companies to expense the estimated fair value of these awards over the requisite service period.
The Company instituted a formal long-term and short-term incentive plan on November 20, 2012, which was approved by its shareholders.
Prior to that date, we did not have a formal equity plan, but all equity grants, including stock options and warrants, were approved
by our Board of Directors. We determine the fair value of the stock-based compensation awards granted to non-employees as either
the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
If the fair value of the equity instruments issued is used, it is measured using the stock price and other measurement assumptions
as of the earlier of either of (1) the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments
is reached, or (2) the date at which the counterparty&rsquo;s performance is complete. Beginning in the quarter ended June 30,
2013 the Company began using the simplified method to determine the expected term for any options granted because the Company did
not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term. The Company previously
utilized the contractual term as the expected term.</P>

can be reasonably estimated.</P>

reflect prior experience in remediating contaminated sites, other companies&rsquo; clean-up experience and data released by The
Environmental Protection Agency or other organizations. Such estimates are by their nature imprecise and can be expected to be
revised over time because of changes in government regulations, operations, technology, and inflation. Recoveries are evaluated
separately from the liability and, when recovery is assured, the Company records and reports an asset separately from the associated
liability.</P>

that embodies an unconditional obligation, or a financial instrument other than an outstanding share that embodies a conditional
obligation, that the issuer must or may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares shall be classified as a liability
(or an asset in some circumstances) if, at inception, the monetary value of the obligation is based solely or predominantly on
any one of the following: (a) a fixed monetary amount known at inception; (b) variations in something other than the fair value
of the issuer&rsquo;s equity shares; or (c) variations inversely related to changes in the fair value of the issuer&rsquo;s equity
shares. Hybrid instruments meeting these criteria are not further evaluated for any embedded derivatives, and are carried as a
liability at fair value at each balance sheet date with remeasurements reported in interest expense in the accompanying Consolidated
Statements of Operations.</P>

any Borrower will obtain forgiveness under any relevant PPP Loan in whole or in part.</P>

Under the LTIP, 8,900,000 shares are authorized for issuance. The STIP does not refer to a particular number of shares under the
LTIP, but would use the shares authorized in the LTIP for issuance under the STIP. The CEO, the CFO, and named executive officers,
and directors, among others are eligible to participate in the LTIP and STIP. Prior to the adoption of the LTIP and STIP, stock
options were granted under individual arrangements between the Company and the grantees, and approved by the Board of Directors.</P>

directors incentive awards in order to attract, retain and reward such individuals and strengthen the mutuality of interests between
such individuals and the Company&rsquo;s stockholders.&nbsp;The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued or
used for reference purposes under the 2016 Incentive Plan or with respect to which awards may be granted may not exceed&nbsp;15,000,000

stock option awards is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Expected volatility is based
on an average of historical volatility of the Company's common stock. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual
life of the stock option award is based on the yield curve of a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury Bond on the date the award is granted
with a maturity equal to the expected term of the award. The Company did not grant any stock option awards during the three months

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Compensation expense of $3,943 was recognized
for vested options for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The aggregate intrinsic value of the outstanding options at March
31, 2021 was $0. At March 31, 2021, (i) $11,696 of unamortized compensation expense for time-based unvested options will be recognized
over the next 0.76 years on a weighted average basis; (ii) $38,784 of unamortized compensation expense for performance-based unvested
options will be recognized if the performance targets are achieved.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">On August 18, 2017, the Company&rsquo;s
management was granted performance-based options to purchase 27.5 million shares of the Company&rsquo;s common stock at $0.06 per
share. The options expire on August 18, 2027. On November 1, 2017, the first fifty percent (50%) of the performance-based options
vested as management was able to (i) close the sale of an aggregate of $600,000 of units (consisting&nbsp;of a share of common
stock of the Company and a warrant to buy 0.25 of a share of common stock of the Company) at $0.04 per unit and (ii) establish
toll processing arrangements with two toll processors of halloysite that, in management&rsquo;s good faith belief, can process
halloysite to the Company&rsquo;s specifications. An additional twenty-five percent (25%) of the performance-based options vested
on January 18, 2018 when management generated $900,000 of additional cash proceeds through (i) the sale of common stock and (ii)
the licensing of a right to explore the Dragon Mine property for certain precious metals. The vesting of the remaining 8.3%, 8.3%
and 8.4% of the performance-based options occurs when (i) EBITDA is positive over a twelve-month period, (ii) EBITDA is at or greater
than $2 million over a twelve-month period and (iii) EBITDA is at or greater than $4 million over a twelve-month period, respectively.
Of the 27.5 million performance options granted to management in August 2017, approximately 14.3 million were outstanding at March
31, 2021. The reduction was due to the forefeiture of&nbsp;options to purchase 0.4 million&nbsp;shares of common stock and the exercise of options to purchase approximately 9.5 million shares of common
stock&nbsp;during the three months ended March 31, 2021. At March 31, 2021, management,
based on its financial expectations for 2020, did not consider the vesting of the remaining 25% of the option grants owned by management
to be probable.&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Applied Minerals, Inc. is focused primarily
on (i) the development, marketing and sale&nbsp;of our halloysite clay-based DRAGONITE&trade; line of products for use in advanced
applications such as, but not limited to, reinforcement additives for polymer composites, flame retardant additives for polymers,
catalysts, controlled release carriers for paints and coatings, strength reinforcement additives for cement, concrete, mortars
and grouts, advanced ceramics, rheology additives for drilling fluids, environmental remediation media, and carriers of agricultural
agents and (ii) the development, marketing and sale&nbsp;of our AMIRON&trade; line of iron oxide products for pigmentary and technical
applications. Halloysite is an aluminosilicate with a tubular structure that provides functionality for a number of applications.
Iron oxides are inorganic compounds that are widely used as pigments in paints, coatings and colored concrete.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Company owns the Dragon Mine, which
has significant deposits of high-quality halloysite clay and iron oxide. The 267-acre property is located in southwestern Utah
and its resource was mined for halloysite on a large-scale, commercial basis between 1949 and 1976 for use as a petroleum cracking
catalyst. The mine was idle until 2001 when the Company leased it to initially develop its halloysite resource for advanced, high-value
applications. We purchased 100% of the property in 2005. After further geological characterization of the mine, the Company identified
a high-purity, natural iron oxide resource that it has commercialized to supply certain pigmentary and technical markets.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Company has a mineral processing plant
with a capacity of up to 45,000 tons per annum for certain applications. The Company has a smaller processing facility with a capacity
of 5,000 &ndash; 10,000 tons per annum that is currently dedicated to its halloysite resource. The Company believes it can increase
its halloysite production capacity to meet an increase in demand through (i) an expansion of our on-site production capacity through
a relatively modest capital investment and (ii) the use of a manufacturing tolling agreement.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Company currently sells its DRAGONITE
product as functional additive for advanced molecular sieves, as a nucleating agent for injection molding applications and as a
binder for ceramic applications. For a number of markets mentioned above, the Company is currently working with a number of customers,
which are in the latter stages of commercializing new and existing products that will utilize DRAGONITE as a functional additive.</P>

an increase of 195% when compared to the same period in 2020. The increase was due to an increase in sales of AMIRON to a producer
of cement. Sales of DRAGONITE halloysite clay during the period totalled $120,147, an increase of 20% when compared to the same
period in 2020. The increase in sales of DRAGONITE halloysite clay was driven primarily by an increase of sales of DRAGONITE-loaded

expenses which management believes are directly related to the mining and processing of the Company&rsquo;s iron oxide and halloysite
minerals, which result in the production of its AMIRON and DRAGONITE products for commercial sale. Production costs include, but
are not limited to, wages and benefits of employees who mine material and who work in the Company&rsquo;s milling operations, energy
costs associated with the operation of the Company&rsquo;s two mills, the cost of mining and milling supplies and the cost of the
maintenance and repair of the Company&rsquo;s mining and milling equipment. Wages and energy are the two largest components of
the Company&rsquo;s production costs.&nbsp;</P>

was due primarily to the incurrence of $96,870 of contract labor expense related to iron mining, a $56,786 increase in clay toll
processing costs due to the Company&rsquo;s decision to purchase all remaining finished
clay product at BASF upon the termination of the tolling agreement between the two companies, and a $49,867 increase in wages and related

Exchange Act of 1934 (the &ldquo;Exchange Act&rdquo;), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered
by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that
our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were, as of the end of the fiscal
quarter covered by this quarterly report, ineffective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that
we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the
SEC&rsquo;s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.</P>

APPLIED MINERALS, INC.
(An Exploration Stage Mining Company)
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1– ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION
OF BUSINESS
Applied Minerals, Inc. (the "Company"
or "Applied Minerals" or "we" or "us") (OTCQB: AMNL) is the owner of the Dragon Mine located
in the Tintic Mining District of the State of Utah from where it produces halloysite clay and iron oxide. The Company is currently
selling its DRAGONITE halloysite clay product regularly to four customers. Several prospective customers are conducting either
commercial-scale trials or field trials for an array of products that are expected to use DRAGONITE as a functional additive. In
October 2019, the Company entered into an agreement to supply a manufacturer of cement with up to 30,000 tons AMIRON iron oxide
per year over a two-year period.
Applied Minerals is a publicly traded company
incorporated in the state of Delaware. The common stock trades on the OTCQB under the symbol AMNL.
Status of the Company for SEC Reporting
Purposes
The Company is classified as an "exploration
stage" company for purposes of Industry Guide 7 of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").
Under Industry Guide 7, companies engaged
in significant mining operations are classified into three categories, referred to as "stages" - exploration, development,
and production.
Exploration stage includes all companies
that do not have established reserves in accordance with Industry Guide 7. Such companies are deemed to be "in the search
for mineral deposits." Notwithstanding the nature and extent of development-type or production-type activities that have
been undertaken or completed, a company cannot be classified as a development or production stage company unless it has established
reserves in accordance with Industry Guide 7.
Exploration Agreement
On December 22, 2017, the Company and Continental
Mineral Claims, Inc. ("CMC") entered into an Exploration Agreement with Option to Purchase ("Agreement").
The Company granted to CMC the exclusive right and option to enter upon and conduct mineral exploration activities (the "Exploration
License") for Metallic Minerals on the Company's Dragon Mine minesite in Utah (the "Mining Claims"). 
Metallic Minerals are defined to include minerals with a high specific gravity and metallic luster, such as gold, silver, lead,
copper, zinc, molybdenum, titanium, tungsten, uranium, tin, iron, etc., but shall exclude any such Metallic Minerals that are intermingled
within any economically-recoverable, non-metallic mineral deposits located at or above an elevation of 5,590 feet above sea level.
Non-metallic minerals include clay and iron oxide, the minerals mined by the Company.  The Company believes that all economic
recoverable non-metallic mineral deposits are well above 5,590 feet above sea level. The Exploration License is for a period of
ten years.
In consideration of the Exploration License
CMC paid the Company $350,000 upon the execution of the agreement and paid it $150,000 on the first anniversary of the Exploration
License in December 2018. CMC will pay the Company $250,000 on or before each subsequent anniversary during the Exploration License
term following the first anniversary of the Effective Date of this Agreement unless the Exploration License is terminated earlier
by CMC by exercising the option or failing to make the required payment for the Exploration License.
On March 25, 2020, the Company and Tintic
Copper and Gold, Inc. (CMC's successor) ("Tintic") agreed to lower the exercise price of the Option to $1,050,000
and Tintic immediately exercised the Option. The Company also provided Tintic with a Right of First Offer which expired on December
21, 2027 and can be extended to December 21, 2032 for $250,000.
Upon the exercise of the option, the Company
retained the all rights and title to (1) the surface interest (with exception of those rights associated with the Metallic Rights),
and (2) all non-metallic minerals (expressly including all industrial minerals including clays and iron oxides).
Upon the exercise of the option the Company
retained protections against unreasonable interference of its current and future mining operations by CMC. CMC may not do anything
that may, at the Company's determination, adversely impact the Company's Mining Operations.  "Mining Operations"
shall mean the activities incident to mineral extraction, permitting, and any operations by CMC or the Company relating to the
removal of minerals, respectively, that are or may reasonably be conducted on the Mining Claims, including the exploration for,
and development, active mining, removing, producing and selling of any minerals, including the Metallic Minerals.  The Agreement
states that the parties understand that the Company is willing to enter into the Agreement only if it is assured that CMC will
not have any right to unreasonably interfere with the Company's current mining operations and possible future Mining Operations
on the Mining Claims.

Impact of COVID–19 Pandemic
on Financial Statements
In December 2019, a novel strain of COVID-19
was reported in China. Since then, COVID-19 has spread globally, to include Canada, the United States and several European countries.
The spread of COVID-19 from China to other countries has resulted in the World Health Organization (WHO) declaring the outbreak
of COVID-19 as a "pandemic," or a worldwide spread of a new disease, on March 11, 2020. Many countries around the world
have imposed quarantines and restrictions on travel and mass gatherings to slow the spread of the virus and have closed non-essential
businesses.
As local jurisdictions continue to put
restrictions in place, our ability to continue to operate our business may also be limited. Such events may result in a period
of business, supply and product manufacturing disruption, and in reduced operations, any of which could materially affect our business,
financial condition and results of operations. In response to COVID-19, the Company implemented remote working and thus far, has
not experienced a significant disruption or delay in our operations.
To date, COVID-19 has had a financial impact
on the Company. In particular certain customers have delayed purchases of DRAGONITE due to the impact of COVID-19 on their business.
COVID-19 has, to some extent, impacted the Company's access to certain of its professional advisors. The small size of the
Company's accounting staff as well as the additional responsibilities assumed by management due to COVID-19 may continue to
adversely affect the Company's ability to complete subsequent reports in a timely manner.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN AND
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Company has suffered recurring losses from
operations and currently a working capital deficit. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability
to continue as a going concern.
Management believes that in order for the Company
to meet its obligations arising from normal business operations through May 21, 2022 that the Company may be required (i) to raise
additional capital either in the form of a private placement of common stock or debt and/or (ii) generate additional sales of its
products that will generate sufficient operating profit and cash flows to fund operations.  Without additional capital or
additional sales of its products, the Company's ability to continue to operate may be limited.
Based on the Company's current cash usage
expectations, management believes it may not have sufficient liquidity to fund its operations through May 21, 2022. Further, management
cannot provide any assurance that it is probable that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans to raise
debt or equity financing or generate additional product sales. Collectively these factors raise substantial doubt regarding the
Company's ability to continue as going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability
and classification of recorded assets amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company not
be able to continue as a going concern.
8
NOTE 3 – BASIS OF REPORTING AND
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements of Applied Minerals, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in
the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes
required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, these interim
unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all of the adjustments of a normal and recurring nature, which are considered
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the Company and the results of its operations and cash flows for
the periods presented. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the
operating results for the entire year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
related disclosures for the year ended December 31, 2020, included in the Annual Report of Applied Minerals, Inc. on Form 10-K
filed with the SEC on April 15, 2021.
The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated
financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described below and elsewhere in these
notes. As of May 21, 2021, the Company's significant accounting policies and estimates remain unchanged from those detailed
in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
9
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements
in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
Company's Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ materially from those
estimates. As of March 31, 2021, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our business going forward depends
on numerous dynamic factors which we cannot reliably predict. As a result, many of our estimates and assumptions required increased
judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. As the events continue to evolve with respect to the pandemic,
our estimates may materially change in future periods.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Cash balances, accounts receivable and
derivative financial instruments are financial instruments potentially subject to credit risk. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained
in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed the federally insured limits. Management periodically reviews and assesses
the financial condition of the banks to mitigate the risk of loss.
For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and
2020, revenues from the Company's largest customer accounted for 56% and 34% of total revenues, respectively. As of March
31, 2021 and 2020, amounts owed from these customers comprised 42% and 63% of accounts receivable, respectively.
Receivables
Trade receivables are reported at outstanding
principal amounts, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.
Management evaluates the collectability
of receivable account balances to determine the allowance, if any. Management considers the other party's credit risk and
financial condition, as well as current and projected economic and market conditions, in determining the amount of the allowance.
Receivable balances are written off when management determines that the balance is uncollectable. No allowance was required at
March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at cost
net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is computed on the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the assets, or the life of the lease, whichever is shorter, as follows:
Estimated
Useful Life (years)
Building and Building Improvements
5 – 40
Mining equipment
2 – 7
Office and shop furniture and equipment
3 – 7
Vehicles
5
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
The Company periodically reviews the carrying
amounts of long-lived assets to determine whether current events or circumstances warrant adjustment to such carrying amounts.
Long-lived assets are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may
not be recoverable. When such events occur, the Company compares the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from
the use and eventual disposition of the asset to its carrying amount. If this comparison indicates that there is an impairment,
the amount of the impairment is typically calculated using discounted expected future cash flows where observable fair values are
not readily determinable. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of assets. Assets to be disposed
of are carried at the lower of their financial statement carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell. The Company has determined
that there was no impairment of its long-lived assets as of March 31, 2021 and 2020.
10
Stock Options and Warrants
The Company follows ASC 718 (Stock Compensation)
and ASU 2018-07 (Compensation – Stock Compensation), which provide guidance in accounting for share-based awards exchanged
for services rendered and requires companies to expense the estimated fair value of these awards over the requisite service period.
The Company instituted a formal long-term and short-term incentive plan on November 20, 2012, which was approved by its shareholders.
Prior to that date, we did not have a formal equity plan, but all equity grants, including stock options and warrants, were approved
by our Board of Directors. We determine the fair value of the stock-based compensation awards granted to non-employees as either
the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
If the fair value of the equity instruments issued is used, it is measured using the stock price and other measurement assumptions
as of the earlier of either of (1) the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments
is reached, or (2) the date at which the counterparty's performance is complete. Beginning in the quarter ended June 30,
2013 the Company began using the simplified method to determine the expected term for any options granted because the Company did
not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term. The Company previously
utilized the contractual term as the expected term.
Environmental Matters
Expenditures for ongoing compliance with
environmental regulations that relate to current operations are expensed or capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures resulting
from the remediation of existing conditions caused by past operations that do not contribute to future revenue generations are
expensed. Liabilities are recognized when environmental assessments indicate that remediation efforts are probable, and the costs
can be reasonably estimated.
Estimates of such liabilities are based
upon currently available facts, existing technology and presently enacted laws and regulations taking into consideration the likely
effects of inflation and other societal and economic factors and include estimates of associated legal costs. These amounts also
reflect prior experience in remediating contaminated sites, other companies' clean-up experience and data released by The
Environmental Protection Agency or other organizations. Such estimates are by their nature imprecise and can be expected to be
revised over time because of changes in government regulations, operations, technology, and inflation. Recoveries are evaluated
separately from the liability and, when recovery is assured, the Company records and reports an asset separately from the associated
liability.
The Company has posted a cash bond in the
amount of 297,000 required by the Utah Department of Oil, Gas and Minerals to cover estimated reclamation costs related the Company
large mining permit for its Dragon Mine property.
Note Payable - Convertible
The Company follows ASC 480-10,
Distinguishing Liabilities
from Equity
("ASC 480-10") in its evaluation of the accounting for a hybrid instrument. A financial instrument
that embodies an unconditional obligation, or a financial instrument other than an outstanding share that embodies a conditional
obligation, that the issuer must or may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares shall be classified as a liability
(or an asset in some circumstances) if, at inception, the monetary value of the obligation is based solely or predominantly on
any one of the following: (a) a fixed monetary amount known at inception; (b) variations in something other than the fair value
of the issuer's equity shares; or (c) variations inversely related to changes in the fair value of the issuer's equity
shares. Hybrid instruments meeting these criteria are not further evaluated for any embedded derivatives, and are carried as a
liability at fair value at each balance sheet date with remeasurements reported in interest expense in the accompanying Consolidated
Statements of Operations.

Outstanding Stock Options
On November 20, 2012, the shareholders
of the Company approved the adoption of the Applied Minerals, Inc. 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") and the Short-Term
Incentive Plan ("STIP") and the performance criteria used in setting performance goals for awards intended to be performance-based.
Under the LTIP, 8,900,000 shares are authorized for issuance. The STIP does not refer to a particular number of shares under the
LTIP, but would use the shares authorized in the LTIP for issuance under the STIP. The CEO, the CFO, and named executive officers,
and directors, among others are eligible to participate in the LTIP and STIP. Prior to the adoption of the LTIP and STIP, stock
options were granted under individual arrangements between the Company and the grantees, and approved by the Board of Directors.
18
On December 7, 2016, the stockholders of
the Company approved the 2016 Incentive Plan. The purpose of the 2016 Incentive Plan is to enhance the profitability and value
of the Company for the benefit of its stockholders by enabling the Company to offer eligible employees, consultants, and non-employee
directors incentive awards in order to attract, retain and reward such individuals and strengthen the mutuality of interests between
such individuals and the Company's stockholders. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued or
used for reference purposes under the 2016 Incentive Plan or with respect to which awards may be granted may not exceed 15,000,000
shares, which may be either (i) authorized and unissued Common Stock or (ii) Common Stock held in or acquired for the treasury
of the Company.
The Compensation Committee of the Company
Board of Directors has full authority to administer and interpret the 2016 Incentive Plan, to grant awards under the 2016 Incentive
Plan, to determine the persons to whom awards will be granted, to determine the types of awards to be granted, to determine the
terms and conditions of each award, to determine the number of shares of Common Stock to be covered by each award and to make all
other determinations in connection with the 2016 Incentive Plan and the awards thereunder as the Committee, in its sole discretion,
deems necessary or desirable.
The fair value of each of the Company's
stock option awards is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Expected volatility is based
on an average of historical volatility of the Company's common stock. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual
life of the stock option award is based on the yield curve of a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury Bond on the date the award is granted
with a maturity equal to the expected term of the award. The Company did not grant any stock option awards during the three months
ended March 31, 2021.

and 8.4% of the performance-based options occurs when (i) EBITDA is positive over a twelve-month period, (ii) EBITDA is at or greater
than $2 million over a twelve-month period and (iii) EBITDA is at or greater than $4 million over a twelve-month period, respectively.
Of the 27.5 million performance options granted to management in August 2017, approximately 14.3 million were outstanding at March
31, 2021. The reduction was due to the forefeiture of options to purchase 0.4 million shares of common stock and the exercise of options to purchase approximately 9.5 million shares of common
stock during the three months ended March 31, 2021. At March 31, 2021, management,
based on its financial expectations for 2020, did not consider the vesting of the remaining 25% of the option grants owned by management
to be probable.

NOTE 11 - PER SHARE DATA
The computation of basic earnings (loss)
per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The computation of diluted
earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year plus the common stock equivalents
that would arise from the exercise of stock options and warrants outstanding under the treasury method and the average market price
per share during the year as well as the conversion of notes.
At March 31, 2021, the weighted average shares
outstanding excluded options to purchase 46,704,500 shares of common stock of the Company, warrants to purchase 24,619,623 shares
of common stock of the Company and 110,410,321 shares of common stock of the Company issuable upon the conversion of notes because
their effect would be anti-dilutive.
At December 31, 2020, the weighted average
shares outstanding excluded options to purchase 56,661,515 shares of common stock of the Company, warrants to purchase 24,619,623
shares of common stock of the Company and 107,025,597 shares of common stock of the Company issuable upon the conversion of notes
payable because their effect would be anti-dilutive.
NOTE 12 – SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On April 20, 2021 the Company received a delinquent tax lien sale
notice with respect to its Dragon Mine property from the Office of the Juab County (UT) Clerk/Auditor. The amounts owed, including
interest and penalties, are $132,949. The amounts owed are due by May 27, 2021 otherwise the property will be offered for sale
at a public auction. The Company paid the amounts owed to Juab County (UT) on May 21, 2021.

ITEM 2     MANAGEMENT'S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Forward-looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections
about our business and our industry. Words such as "believe," "anticipate," "expect," "intend,"
"plan," "will," "may," and other similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. In addition,
any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking
statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements.
Overview
Applied Minerals, Inc. is focused primarily
on (i) the development, marketing and sale of our halloysite clay-based DRAGONITE™ line of products for use in advanced
applications such as, but not limited to, reinforcement additives for polymer composites, flame retardant additives for polymers,
catalysts, controlled release carriers for paints and coatings, strength reinforcement additives for cement, concrete, mortars
and grouts, advanced ceramics, rheology additives for drilling fluids, environmental remediation media, and carriers of agricultural
agents and (ii) the development, marketing and sale of our AMIRON™ line of iron oxide products for pigmentary and technical
applications. Halloysite is an aluminosilicate with a tubular structure that provides functionality for a number of applications.
Iron oxides are inorganic compounds that are widely used as pigments in paints, coatings and colored concrete.
The Company owns the Dragon Mine, which
has significant deposits of high-quality halloysite clay and iron oxide. The 267-acre property is located in southwestern Utah
and its resource was mined for halloysite on a large-scale, commercial basis between 1949 and 1976 for use as a petroleum cracking
catalyst. The mine was idle until 2001 when the Company leased it to initially develop its halloysite resource for advanced, high-value
applications. We purchased 100% of the property in 2005. After further geological characterization of the mine, the Company identified
a high-purity, natural iron oxide resource that it has commercialized to supply certain pigmentary and technical markets.
The Company has a mineral processing plant
with a capacity of up to 45,000 tons per annum for certain applications. The Company has a smaller processing facility with a capacity
of 5,000 – 10,000 tons per annum that is currently dedicated to its halloysite resource. The Company believes it can increase
its halloysite production capacity to meet an increase in demand through (i) an expansion of our on-site production capacity through
a relatively modest capital investment and (ii) the use of a manufacturing tolling agreement.
The Company currently sells its DRAGONITE
product as functional additive for advanced molecular sieves, as a nucleating agent for injection molding applications and as a
binder for ceramic applications. For a number of markets mentioned above, the Company is currently working with a number of customers,
which are in the latter stages of commercializing new and existing products that will utilize DRAGONITE as a functional additive.
Applied Minerals is a publicly traded company
incorporated in the state of Delaware. The common stock trades on the OTC market under the symbol AMNL.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
A complete discussion of our critical accounting
policies and estimates is included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. There have been no material changes in

Revenue for the three months ended March
31, 2021 totalled $273,672, an increase of $121,196 or 79%, compared to the same period in 2020. The increase was driven primarily
by a $101,447 increase in the sale of AMIRON iron oxide and a $19,787 increase in the sale of DRAGONITE halloysite clay.
Sales of AMIRON during the period totaled $153,563,
an increase of 195% when compared to the same period in 2020. The increase was due to an increase in sales of AMIRON to a producer
of cement. Sales of DRAGONITE halloysite clay during the period totalled $120,147, an increase of 20% when compared to the same
period in 2020. The increase in sales of DRAGONITE halloysite clay was driven primarily by an increase of sales of DRAGONITE-loaded
polymer masterbatch to a number of customers.
Total operating expenses for the three
months ended March 31, 2021 totalled $903,279, an increase of $3,160, or 0%, compared to the same period in 2020. The increase
was driven primarily by a $242,616, or 111%, increase in production costs, partially offset by a $245,412, or 39%, decline in general
and administrative expense.
Production costs include those operating
expenses which management believes are directly related to the mining and processing of the Company's iron oxide and halloysite
minerals, which result in the production of its AMIRON and DRAGONITE products for commercial sale. Production costs include, but
are not limited to, wages and benefits of employees who mine material and who work in the Company's milling operations, energy
costs associated with the operation of the Company's two mills, the cost of mining and milling supplies and the cost of the
maintenance and repair of the Company's mining and milling equipment. Wages and energy are the two largest components of
the Company's production costs.
23
Production costs incurred during the three
months ended March 31, 2021 were $462,166, an increase of $242,616, or 111%, compared to the same period in 2020. The increase
was due primarily to the incurrence of $96,870 of contract labor expense related to iron mining, a $56,786 increase in clay toll
processing costs due to the Company's decision to purchase all remaining finished
clay product at BASF upon the termination of the tolling agreement between the two companies, and a $49,867 increase in wages and related
payroll taxes due to the addition of labor, partially offset by a $50,233 decline in utility expense related to a refund of payments
previously paid for historical electricity costs.
Exploration costs include operating expenses
incurred at the Dragon Mine that are not directly related to production activities. Exploration costs incurred during the three
months ended March 31, 2021 were $51,590, an $5,956 or 13%, increase compared to the same period in 2020.
General and administrative expenses incurred
during the three months ended March 31, 2021 totalled $389,523, a $245,412, or 39%, decline when compared to the same period in
2020. The decrease was due primarily by a $201,121 decrease in wages due to the elimination and consolidation of a number of executive
positions, a $40,000 decrease in director expense due to a decrease in the number of directors, a $31,575 and a decrease in D&O
expense, partially offset by a $23,729 increase in shareholder expense.
Operating loss incurred during the three
months ended March 31, 2021 was $629,607, a $118,036, or 16%, decrease when compared to the same period in 2020. The decline was
driven primarily by a $121,196 increase in revenue and a $245,412 decrease in general and administrative expense, offset by a $242,616
increase in production costs when compared to the same period in 2020.
Total Other Expense was $216,351 for the
three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to Total Other Income of $854,668 in same period in 2020. The $1,071,019 increase in
Total Other Expense was due primarily to a $18,310 increase in PIK Note interest expense, offset by a $1,052,709 decline in other
income when compared to the same period in 2020.
Net Loss for the three-month period ending
March 31, 2021 was $845,958, a decline of $967,155, or 904%, when compared to the same period in 2020. The decrease was primarily
driven by a $118,036 decline in operating loss offset by a $1,052,709 decline in Total Other Income.
24
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and
currently a working capital deficit. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as
a going concern.
Management believes that in order for the Company
to meet its obligations arising from normal business operations through May 21, 2022 that the Company may be required (i) to raise
additional capital either in the form of a private placement of common stock or debt and/or (ii) generate additional sales of its
products that will generate sufficient operating profit and cash flows to fund operations.  Without additional capital or
additional sales of its products, the Company's ability to continue to operate may be limited.
Based on the Company's current cash usage
expectations, management believes it may not have sufficient liquidity to fund its operations through May 21, 2022. Further, management
cannot provide any assurance that it is probable that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans to raise
debt or equity financing or generate additional product sales. Collectively these factors raise substantial doubt regarding the
Company's ability to continue as going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability
and classification of recorded assets amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company not
be able to continue as a going concern.
Cash used in operating activities during the three months ended
March 31, 2021 was $440,254 compared to $727,004 provided during the same period in 2020. During the period the Company used $440,254 primarily due to a net loss of approximately $846,000 and a gain of $223,000 from the forgiveness of a PPP loan, partially offset by non-cash items
related to accrual of approximatey $449,000 of interest expense with respect
to the PIK Notes, stock-based compensation expense of  approximately $62,000 and net changes in operating assets and
liabilities and others of approximately $118,000. Cash used in operating activities during 2021 before adjusting for changes in operating assets
and liabilities was $550,454, $1,107,758 more than the comparable period in 2020.
Cash provided by financing activities during
the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $314,566 compared to $277,754 used during the same period in 2020. The $592,320 increase
in cash provided during the period was due primarily to $100,000 of proceeds from a private placement of Series B Preferred Stock, $264,472 of proceeds from
a Paycheck Protection Program loan, partially offset by a $315,625 decrease of payments on notes payable.
25
Total assets at March 31, 2021 were $1,658,359
compared to $1,900,307 at December 31, 2020, a decrease of $241,948 due primarily to decrease in the Company cash, prepaid expenses
and operating lease right-of-use assets. Total liabilities were $50,163,991 compared to $49,729,744 at December 31, 2020. The increase
of $434,247 in total liabilities was due primarily to the increase in Paycheck Protection Program Loan, increase in accounts payable
resulting from cash management, amortization of PIK Notes debt discount which increased the carrying value of PIK Notes payable,
proceeds from issuance of notes payable and offset by repayment of notes payable to related party.
ISSUANCE OF CONVERTIBLE DEBT
For information with respect to issuance
of convertible debt, see Note 8 of Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
There are no off-balance sheet arrangements
between the Company and any other entity that have, or are reasonable likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial
condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital
resources that is material to investors.

interest rates, foreign currencies, or other factors.
26
ITEM 4.     CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered
by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that
our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were, as of the end of the fiscal
quarter covered by this quarterly report, ineffective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that
we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the
SEC's rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
During the three months ended March 31,
2021, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely
to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Notwithstanding the existence of these
material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, the management believes that the consolidated financial statements
included in this Form 10-Q fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows
for the periods presented.
