CANYON RESOURCES CORPORATION
NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited) 1. Basis of Presentation: During interim periods, Canyon Resources (the Company) follows the
accounting policies set forth in its Annual Report to Stockholders and its
Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Users of
financial information produced for interim periods are encouraged to refer to
the footnotes contained in the Annual Report to Stockholders when reviewing
interim financial results. In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim financial
statements contain all material adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, the
results of operations, and the cash flows of Canyon Resources and its
consolidated subsidiaries for interim periods. These interim results are not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations or cash flows for the full
year ending December 31, 2004. 2. Management Estimates and Assumptions: Certain amounts included in or affecting the Companys financial
statements and related disclosures must be estimated, requiring that certain
assumptions be made with respect to values or conditions which cannot be made
with certainty at the time the financial statements are prepared. Therefore,
the reported amounts of the Companys assets and liabilities, revenues and
expenses, and associated disclosures with respect to contingent assets and
obligations are necessarily affected by these estimates. The Company evaluates
these estimates on an ongoing basis, utilizing historical experience,
consultation with experts, and other methods considered reasonable in the
particular circumstances. Nevertheless, actual results may differ significantly
from the Companys estimates. 3. Stock Based Compensation: In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation(SFAS No. 123), the Company measures compensation cost
using the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board
(APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related
interpretations to account for its stock option plans. However, because the
Company had allowed option holders to exercise options by surrendering shares
underlying vested but unexercised options in payment of the exercise price of
the options, the Companys outstanding options are accounted for using variable
plan accounting. As a result, while no compensation cost has been recognized at
the grant date as the exercise price of all stock option grants was at least
equal to 100% of the market price of the Companys common stock as of the date
of grant, subsequent changes in the market price of the Companys stock to the
date of exercise or forfeiture result in a change in the measure of
compensation cost for the award being recognized. Had compensation cost been
recorded under the fair value provisions of SFAS No. 123, the following pro
forma net loss and per share amounts would have been recorded for the three
months ended March 31: 2004

(Unaudited) 4. Earnings per Share (EPS): The Company computes EPS by applying the provisions of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123, Earnings per Share. As the Company reported net
losses for the periods presented, inclusion of common stock equivalents would
have an antidilutive effect on per share amounts. Accordingly, the Companys
basic and diluted EPS computations are the same for the periods presented.
Common stock equivalents for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003
that were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the effect
would have been antidilutive were 6,787,700 and 3,271,200, respectively. 5. Restricted Cash: Restricted cash consisted of the following at: March 31,

    Notes Payable, continued:  retained for general corporate purposes. The debentures require
quarterly interest payments, and the holders have the right to convert
principal to common stock of the Company, subject to certain
adjustments, at any time at a conversion rate of $1.38 per share of
common stock. The principal amount, unless otherwise converted, is due
March 1, 2005.  9.
    
    Commitments and Contingencies:  (a)
    
    Kendall Mine ReclamationThe Kendall Mine holds permits granted by the Montana Department of
Environmental Quality (DEQ). In February 2002, the DEQ issued a
decision that a comprehensive Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is
needed for completion of remaining reclamation at Kendall. The Company
feels that it is crucial that reclamation proceed at Kendall without
further delay and, therefore, disagrees with the agency decision, and
is presently evaluating its course of action with regard to the DEQs
decision. The Companys estimate to achieve mine closure could be
impacted by the outcome of an agency decision following an EIS. The
Company has $1,924,400 on deposit in an interest bearing account with
the DEQ for reclamation at the Kendall Mine.(b)
    
    Briggs Mine Surety BondsThe Briggs Mine operates under permits granted by various agencies
including the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Inyo County, the
California Department of Conservation, and the Lahontan Regional Water
Quality Control Board (Lahontan). These agencies have jointly required
the Company to post a reclamation bond in the amount of $3,030,000 to
ensure appropriate reclamation. Additionally, the Company was required
by Lahontan to post a $1,010,000 bond to ensure adequate funds to
mitigate any foreseeable release, as defined, of pollutants to state
waters. Both bonds are subject to annual review and adjustment.In 2000, in response to a demand for an increase in collateral by the
Surety who issued the above described bonds, the Company granted a
security interest in 28,000 acres of mineral interests in Montana. In
addition, the Company agreed to make cash deposits with the Surety
totaling $1.5 million over a three year period at the rate of $0.5
million per year, commencing June 30, 2001. The Company has not made
any deposits to date, and is in discussions with the Surety to
reschedule the deposit requirements. If an acceptable rescheduling of
the deposit requirements cannot be agreed to, the Surety could seek to
terminate the bonds which could result in the Company becoming liable
for the principal amounts under its collateral agreement with the
Surety.(c)
    
    Contingent LiabilityOn September 25, 1997, the Company, together with its wholly-owned
subsidiary, CR Montana Corporation (CR Montana), purchased a 72.25%
participating interest and underlying assets in the Seven-Up Pete
Venture (SPV) from CR Montanas partner in the SPV, Phelps Dodge
Corporation (Phelps Dodge). The Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary
now own 100% of the SPV. The SPV includes the McDonald Gold Project
near Lincoln, Montana.The Company made an initial payment of $5 million and is required to
make a final payment of $10.0 million upon issuance of all permits
required for construction of the McDonald Gold Project, or
alternatively, one-third of any proceeds received from any potential
takings lawsuit. Due to the contingent nature of the transaction, the
Company recorded only the initial payment of $5 million as additions to
mining claims and leases. 10

    Commitments and Contingencies, continued:  The purchase payments are collateralized only by the 72.25%
participating interest and underlying assets in the SPV transferred
from Phelps Dodge to the Company and CR Montana in this transaction,
and the 50% co-tenancy interest in certain real property also
transferred to the Company and CR Montana.(d)
    
    Anti-Mining Initiative (I-137)In November 1998, the Montana electorate passed an anti-mining
initiative (I-137) by a vote of 52% to 48%. I-137, as modified by the
State Legislature in April 1999, bans development of new gold and
silver mines, which use open-pit mining methods and cyanide in the
treatment and recovery process. In April 2000, the SPV filed lawsuits
in Montana State District Court and in the United States District
Court, seeking to have I-137 declared unconstitutional, or,
alternatively, to obtain a takings or damage award for the lost value
of the McDonald, Seven-Up Pete and Keep Cool mineral properties. These
lawsuits are based on, amongst others, (i) the right not to be deprived
of property without due process of law; (ii) the right to equal
protection under the laws; and (iii) the right to be protected against
laws which impair the obligations of existing contracts. The United
States District Court issued a ruling August 30, 2001 in which the
Court dismissed the SPVs substantive due process claim but, as
requested by the SPV, ruled that the remainder of the SPVs claims
could be pursued at such time as the State lawsuit was concluded. The
Montana State District Court issued a ruling November 1, 2001 in
response to a Motion to Dismiss and a Motion For Summary Judgment by
the State of Montana. In this ruling, the Court dismissed four of the
SPVs fourteen counts, including its substantive due process and equal
protection challenges to I-137s validity. The decision maintained for
adjudication the contract impairment validity challenge, contract
damage claims, and all of the takings claims. Following the November
2001 ruling by the State District Court, the State filed a new Motion
for Summary Judgment as to all claims. In an Order dated December 9,
2002, the Court granted the State Summary Judgment on all of the
remaining legal claims of the Companys lawsuit. On January 14, 2003, the Company filed an appeal with the Montana State
Supreme Court. Oral arguments were heard by the Montana Supreme Court
on October 28, 2003. The Company expects a ruling during 2004.On March 2, 2004, the Montana Mining Association filed the language of
a proposed new initiative, I-147, to be placed before the voters of
Montana at the November 2, 2004 ballot which, if enacted, would allow
use of cyanide leaching in open-pit gold mines with appropriate
engineering practices and environmental safeguards. If qualified for
the ballot and then enacted by citizen vote in November 2004, I-147
would make unnecessary any favorable court action on behalf of the
Companys legal actions and would allow the Company to resume
permitting of the McDonald Gold Project. In any case, the Company will
continue its legal efforts until the I-137 impediment is removed.Should I-137 be overturned through the legal process or by voter
initiative, significant capital will be required to resume permitting
and ultimately develop the McDonald Gold Project. No assurances can be
made regarding the Companys ability to obtain additional financing
through capital markets, joint ventures, or other arrangements in the
future.(e)
    
    McDonald Gold Project  State LeasesOn September 24, 1998, the Montana Department of Natural Resources
(DNRC), the entity that administers state mineral leases, unilaterally
decided to cancel the permitting extension of the 10-year lease term of
the state leases that pertain to the McDonald Gold Project which would
require the Company, after a period of approximately seventeen months,
to commence paying a delay rental of $150,000 per month in order
to maintain the leases. 11

    Commitments and Contingencies, continued:  In February 2000, pursuant to its September 1998 decision, the DNRC
determined that the primary terms of the mineral leases had expired.
The Company appealed the action of the DNRC in an administrative
hearing process and the DNRC Hearing Examiner affirmed the DNRC action.
It is the Companys position that the permitting process has been
interrupted by the threat and passage of I-137 and, thus, the permit
extension is continued until the governmental impediment is resolved.
As part of the I-137 lawsuit filed in April 2000 against the State of
Montana, the Company asked the court to review and invalidate the
DNRCs action, however, the court, in its December 9, 2002 order as
described in the preceding paragraph, denied the Companys petition for
judicial review. On January 14, 2003, the Company filed an appeal with
the Montana State Supreme Court. Oral arguments were heard by the
Montana State Supreme Court on October 28, 2003. The Company expects a
ruling during 2004.The proposed new initiative, I-147, described above contains a
provision which, if enacted, would restore all contractual interest or
right in a mineral estate which was diminished or lost as a consequence
of the enactment of I-137 to the same rights at the date of the
enactment of I-137 (November 3, 1998). Since the state mineral leases
were in full force and effect on November 3, 1998, the proposed new
initiative, if qualified for the ballot and then enacted by citizen
vote in November 2004, would restore the state mineral leases to full
validity.(f)
    
    Kendall Mine LawsuitIn October 2001, a Plaintiff group filed suit in Montana District Court
against the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, CR Kendall
Corporation, alleging violation of water rights and other torts in
connection with the operation of the Kendall Mine. The Complaint seeks
unspecified damages and punitive damages. The Company believes the
allegations are completely without merit and that the Company will
prevail in this matter.In August 2002, a Preliminary Injunction was issued in Montana District
Court on behalf of the Plaintiff group in connection with the Companys
auction of certain mineral rights and fee lands in western Montana. In
October 2002, the Court issued a Supplemental Order which will
sequester up to $528,000 of any proceeds realized from the auction
until such time as the lawsuit is concluded. As of March 31, 2004,
$267,800 had been remitted to the Court as required by the Order.
Including interest earned on the funds remitted, the Court held
$272,100 as of March 31, 2004.(g)
    
    Assignment of Royalty ProceedsIn October 2001, the Company issued 1,050,000 shares of common stock
with a fair market value of $1,207,500 to Franco-Nevada Mining
Corporation in connection with the assignment of a 2% net smelter
returns royalty on the first 175,000 ounces of gold production from the
Companys Briggs Mine, commencing April 1, 2001.From April 1, 2001 through March 31, 2004, the Briggs Mine had
produced 172,997 ounces of gold and will be subject to a 3% net smelter
returns royalty on all remaining production once the 175,000 ounce
threshold is achieved.(h)
    
    Other ItemsDuring 2003, the Company entered into an agreement with Gold Resource
Corporation, a private Colorado Corporation, which is an affiliate of,
and 40% owned by U. S. Gold Corporation, a public Colorado Corporation,
to finance the exploration and possible development of a
gold/silver project in the State of Oaxaca, Mexico. 12

    Commitments and Contingencies, continued:  The Company, through March 31, 2004, had funded $500,000 of exploration
and metallurgical test work. The Company is presently evaluating those
results and will make a determination in the third quarter of 2004
whether to proceed to the next phase, which would require a $3.0
million commitment and allow the Company to earn a 50% interest in the
project. Should the Company elect to not proceed with this phase, it
will receive 600,000 shares of Gold Resource Corporation as
consideration for its funding of $500,000 of exploration, engineering
and metallurgical test work.  10.
    
    Derivative Instruments and Price Protection Arrangements: During the first three months of 2004, the Company delivered gold against
a forward contract that existed at December 31, 2003 (3,820 ounces at an
average price of approximately $377 per ounce) which resulted in a gain of
$147,200. During the first quarter of 2003, a mark-to-market gain of $487,600
was recorded. These gains are shown as a separate line item in the other income
(expense) section in the Statement of Operations.  11.
    
    Income Taxes: The Company has not recorded a tax benefit for the current period as the
realization is not expected to be likely during the year. The benefit is also
not expected to be realizable as a deferred tax asset at year end as the
Company anticipates recording a full valuation allowance for all deferred tax
assets, except to the extent of offsetting reversals of expected deferred tax
liabilities.  12.
    
    Restatement of Prior Financial Information: The Company has restated its financial statements for prior periods to
account for the Companys stock option plans using variable plan accounting,
insofar as the Company has permitted option holders to exercise options by
surrendering shares underlying unexercised options in payment of the exercise
price of the options. While the Company has accounted for options issued under
the plans as fixed awards, it has been determined that variable plan accounting
would be appropriate. The use of variable plan accounting requires a charge to
compensation expense, commencing at the grant date, in an amount by which the
market price of the Companys stock covered by the grant exceeds the option
price. This accounting continues and subsequent changes in the market price of
the Companys stock from the date of grant to the date of exercise or
forfeiture result in a change in the measure of compensation cost for the award
being recognized but not resulting in an accumulated adjustment below zero. The
following sets forth the effects of the aforementioned adjustment to the
Companys Consolidated Statements of Operations for each of the quarters in
2003 and their respective year-to-date amounts, the Companys Consolidated
Statements of Cash Flows in 2003 for the three, six and nine month periods and
full year, and the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2003. 13

    Cumulative effect (vested in-the-money stock option awards outstanding and

Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, (FIN No.
46) which provides guidance on the identification and reporting for entities
over which control is achieved through means other than voting rights. FIN No.
46 defines such entities as variable interest entities (VIEs). A FASB Staff
Position issued in October 2003 deferred the effective date of FIN No. 46 to
the first interim or annual period ending after December 15, 2003 for entities
created before February 1, 2003 if certain criteria are met. Subsequently,
during December 2003, the FASB issued a revision to FIN No. 46 (FIN No. 46R)
which replaces the original interpretation. Application of this revised
interpretation is required in financial statements for companies that have
interests in VIEs or potential VIEs commonly referred to as special-purpose
entities created after December 15, 2003. Application for entities created
before January 1, 2004 is required in financial statements for periods ending
after March 15, 2004. The Company believes it has no such variable interest
entities and as a result FIN No. 46 did not have an impact on the Companys
financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. The Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) formed a committee (Committee) to
evaluate certain mining industry accounting issues, including issues arising
from the application of SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations(SFAS No. 141) and
SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Tangible Assets(SFAS No. 142) to business
combinations within the mining industry, accounting for goodwill and other
intangibles and the capitalization of costs after the commencement of
production, including deferred stripping. The issues discussed also included
whether mineral interests conveyed by leases represent tangible or intangible
assets and the amortization of such assets. In March 2004, the EITF reached a
consensus, subject to ratification by the FASB, that mineral interests conveyed
by leases should be considered tangible assets. The EITF also reached a
consensus, subject to ratification by the FASB, on other mining related issues
involving impairment and business combinations. On March 31, 2004, the FASB ratified the consensus of the EITF on other
mining related issues involving impairment and business combinations. This did
not have an impact to the Companys financial statements since it did not
change the Companys accounting. The FASB also ratified the consensus of the
EITF that mineral interests conveyed by leases should be considered tangible
assets subject to the finalization of a FASB Staff Position (FSP) in this
regard. 19

(Unaudited) 13.  Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards, continued: On April 30, 2004, the FASB issued a FSP amending SFAS No. 141 and SFAS
No. 142 to provide that certain mineral use rights are considered tangible
assets and that mineral use rights should be accounted for based on their
substance. The FSP is effective for the first reporting period beginning after
April 29, 2004, with early adoption permitted. The Company is presently
evaluating the impact that adoption of the FSP will have on its financial
position, results of operations, and cash flows. The Committee is continuing its evaluation of mining industry accounting
issues, which may have an impact on the Companys accounting in the future. 20

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Cautionary Statement for Purposes of the Safe Harbor Provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The matters discussed in this report on Form 10-Q, when not historical
matters, are forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from
projected results. Such factors include, among others, the speculative nature
of mineral exploration, commodity prices, production and reserve estimates,
environmental and government regulations, availability of financing, judicial
proceedings, force majeure events, and other risk factors as described from
time to time in the Companys filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Many of these factors are beyond the Companys ability to control
or predict. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update its
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of receiving new information,
the occurrence of future events, or otherwise. Restatement of Financial Statements As further discussed in Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements,
the Company has restated its financial statements for prior periods to account
for the Companys stock option plans using variable plan accounting, insofar as
the Company has permitted option holders to exercise options by surrendering
shares underlying unexercised options in payment of the exercise price of the
options. While the Company has accounted for options issued under the plans as
fixed awards, it has been determined that variable plan accounting would be
appropriate. The use of variable plan accounting requires a charge to
compensation expense, commencing at the grant date, in an amount by which the
market price of the Companys stock covered by the grant exceeds the option
price. This accounting continues and subsequent changes in the market price of
the Companys stock from the date of grant to the date of exercise or
forfeiture result in a change in the measure of compensation cost for the award
being recognized but not resulting in an accumulated adjustment below zero. For
the three months ended March 31, 2003, the adjustment increased the Companys
net loss by $44,600, or $0.01 per share. Overview The Companys financial condition and liquidity improved from December 31,
2003 to March 31, 2004, primarily due to an equity financing which resulted in
proceeds of $7.1 million and the exercise of certain warrants, which resulted
in proceeds of $0.8 million. These inflows allowed the Company to absorb
negative operating cash flow of $2.3 million and spend $0.4 million on
development of the last area of known reserves at the Briggs Mine. The Company
ended the quarter with $9.3 million of cash and cash equivalents. Revenues declined 55% from the prior period, due to lower production
levels, as the Briggs operation nears the end of its mine life. Improving spot
gold prices resulted in price realizations of $383 per ounce during the first
three months of 2004, as compared to $307 per ounce in the first three months
of 2003. Overall, the Companys results of operations reflect a higher net loss
in 2004 as the improvement in price realizations was more than offset by lower
aggregate revenues and higher unit costs of sales. On March 2, 2004, the Montana Mining Association filed the language of a
proposed new initiative, I-147, to be placed before the voters of Montana at
the November 2, 2004 ballot which, if enacted, would allow use of cyanide
leaching in open-pit gold mines with appropriate engineering practices and
environmental safeguards. If qualified for the ballot and then enacted by
citizen vote in November 2004, I-147 would make unnecessary any favorable court
action on behalf of the Companys legal actions and would allow the Company to
resume permitting of the McDonald Gold Project. In any case, the Company will
continue its legal efforts until the I-137 impediment is removed. 21

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates The ensuing discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations are based on the Companys consolidated financial statements,
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. Certain amounts included in or affecting the
Companys financial statements and related disclosures must be estimated,
requiring that certain assumptions be made with respect to values or conditions
which cannot be made with certainty at the time the financial statements are
prepared. Therefore, the reported amounts of the Companys assets and
liabilities, revenues and expenses, and associated disclosures with respect to
contingent assets and obligations are necessarily affected by these estimates.
The more significant areas requiring the use of management estimates and
assumptions relate to mineral reserves that are the basis for future cash flow
estimates and units-of-production amortization determination; recoverability
and timing of gold production from the heap leaching process; environmental,
reclamation and closure obligations; asset impairments (including estimates of
future cash flows); useful lives and residual values of intangible assets; fair
value of financial instruments; valuation allowances for deferred tax assets;
and contingencies and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on historical
experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under
different assumptions or conditions. Users of financial information produced
for interim periods are encouraged to refer to the Companys accounting
policies, footnotes to the financial statements, and detailed discussion of
critical accounting policies and estimates set forth in its Annual Report on
Form 10-K. Results of Operations The Company recorded a net loss of $5.7 million, or $0.22 per share, on
revenues of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004. For the
comparable period of 2003, the Company recorded a net loss of $1.9 million, or
$0.10 per share, on revenues of $3.9 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company sold 4,540 ounces
of gold and at an average price of $383 per equivalent gold ounce. For the
comparable period of 2003, the Company sold 12,550 ounces of gold and 4,300
ounces of silver at an average realized price of $307 per equivalent gold
ounce. The New York Commodity Exchange (COMEX) gold price averaged $409 and
$352 per ounce for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003,
respectively. The following table summaries the Companys gold deliveries and revenues: Three Months Ended

and $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003,
respectively. 22

##### Table of Contents



Depreciation, depletion and amortization was higher in the current period
due to a greater number of recoverable ounces mined, as the Company commenced
mining of the high grade North Briggs lay back. Selling, general and administrative expense was approximately $1.3 million
higher in the current period due to accrued compensation recorded in connection
with the Companys stock option plans and to increased investor relations
activity. Exploration and development costs were approximately $0.2 million higher
in the current period due to higher costs at the Companys McDonald Gold
Project. Interest income and expense was not materially different for the periods
presented. The Company recognized a gain of approximately $0.076 million in
connection with the sale of certain property interests during the three months
ended March 31, 2003. There was no comparable activity in the current period. During the first quarter of 2004, the Company recorded a gain on a forward
gold contract of approximately $0.1 million. During the first quarter of 2003,
a mark-to-market gain of approximately $0.5 million was recorded. These gains
are shown as a separate line item in the other income (expense) section on the
Statement of Operations. On January 1, 2003, the Company became subject to the accounting and
reporting requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143,
Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations(SFAS No. 143). SFAS No. 143
establishes accounting and reporting standards for obligations associated with
the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset
retirement costs. SFAS No. 143 requires that the fair value of a liability for
an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is
incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. Fair value is
determined by estimating the retirement obligations in the period an asset is
first placed in service and then adjusting the amount for estimated inflation
and market risk contingencies to the projected settlement date of the
liability. The result is then discounted to a present value from the projected
settlement date to the date the asset was first placed in service. The present
value of the asset retirement obligation is recorded as an additional property
cost and as an asset retirement liability. The amortization of the additional
property cost (using the units of production method) is included in
depreciation, depletion and amortization expense and the accretion of the
discounted liability is recorded as a separate operating expense in the
Companys Statement of Operations. Prior to adoption of SFAS No. 143, an
accrual for the Companys estimated asset retirement obligations (site specific
reclamation costs for earthwork, revegetation, water treatment and
dismantlement of facilities) was made using the units of production method over
the life of the property and was included in cost of sales. Upon adoption of
SFAS No. 143, the Company recorded a loss of $11,700 as the cumulative effect
of a change in accounting principle. Liquidity & Capital Resources For the three months ended March 31, 2004, operating activities used $2.3
million of cash, investing activities used $0.4 million of cash and financing
activities provided $7.9 million of cash, resulting in a net increase in cash
of $5.2 million. Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2004 was $9.3 million. During the first three months of 2004, the Company (i) raised $7.1 million
through the sale of 1,631,000 shares of common stock at a price of $4.37 per
share and (ii) received proceeds of approximately $0.8 million in connection
with the exercise of certain warrants. 23

Outlook Summary The Company believes that its cash requirements over the next 12 months
can be funded through a combination of existing cash and cash flow from
operations. The Companys long-term liquidity may be impacted by the scheduled
wind down of operations at the Briggs Mine during 2004-2005, which is currently
the only internal source of cash flow. The Company is continually evaluating
business opportunities such as joint ventures and mergers and acquisitions with
the objective of creating additional cash flow to sustain the corporation,
provide a future source of funds for growth, as well as to continue its
litigation efforts with respect to the McDonald Gold Project. Moreover, should
the I-137 legal impediment be removed through litigation or voter initiative
(See Other Matters  McDonald Gold Project  Anti-Mining Initiative),
significant capital will be necessary to resume permitting and ultimately
develop the McDonald Gold Project. While the Company believes it will be able
to finance its continuing activities, there are no assurances of success in
this regard or in the Companys ability to obtain additional financing through
capital markets, joint ventures, or other arrangements in the future. If
managements plans are not successful, operations and liquidity may be
adversely impacted. Operations Active mining at the Briggs Mine was concluded in April 2004. Ore on the
heap leach pad will be actively leached throughout 2004. Reclamation of the
waste dumps will commence in the second quarter of 2004 and continue through
the year, at a cost of approximately $0.7 million. The Briggs Mine is expected
to produce approximately 31,000 ounces of gold in 2004 at cash operating costs
of approximately $200  $220 per ounce. The Company expects to spend approximately $0.2 million on closure
activities at the Kendall Mine during 2004. This estimate is based on the
likelihood that only pad recontouring work will be undertaken in 2004 as a
result of the Montana Department of Environmental Qualitys decision to require
an Environmental Impact Statement before proceeding with reclamation
activities. See Note 9(a) to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Expenditures at the McDonald Gold Project for legal and land holding costs
are expected to be approximately $0.5 million in 2004. In addition, the Company
expects to participate financially in the proposed new initiative, I-147, for
the November 2004 ballot which, if enacted, would allow use of cyanide leaching
in open-pit mines with appropriate engineering practices and environmental
safeguards. Financing At March 31, 2004, the Company had outstanding warrants issued in
connection with previous transactions as follows: i) warrants to purchase
964,100 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.67 per share, which
expire on September 30, 2004 and ii) warrants to purchase 2,251,800 shares of
common stock at a price of $1.98 per share through December 1, 2004, or at a
price of $2.16 per share through December 1, 2005. Aggregate proceeds of
between $6.1 million and $6.5 million would be realized on exercise of these
warrants, depending on the terms in effect at the time of exercise. The Companys 6% convertible debentures ($2.7 million of principal at
March 31, 2004), are convertible by the holders to common stock of the Company
at any time at a conversion rate of $1.38 per share of common stock. The
principal amount, if not otherwise converted, is due March 1, 2005. 24

    One year purchase contract for cyanide consumption at the
Briggs Mine. Potential Commitment During 2003, the Company entered into an agreement with Gold Resource
Corporation, a private Colorado corporation, which is an affiliate of, and 40%
owned by U. S. Gold Corporation, a public Colorado Corporation, to finance the
exploration and possible development of a gold/silver project in the State of
Oaxaca, Mexico. The Company, through March 31, 2004, had funded $0.5 million of
exploration and metallurgical test work. The Company is presently evaluating
those results and will make a determination in the third quarter of 2004
whether to proceed to the next phase, which would require a $3.0 million
commitment and allow the Company to earn a 50% interest in the project. Should
the Company elect to not proceed with this phase, it will receive 600,000
shares of Gold Resource Corporation as consideration for its funding of $0.5
million of exploration, engineering and metallurgical test work. Other Matters McDonald Gold Project  Anti-Mining Initiative In November 1998, the Montana electorate passed an anti-mining initiative
(I-137) by a vote of 52% to 48%. I-137, as modified by the State Legislature
in April 1999, bans development of new gold and silver mines, which use
open-pit mining methods and cyanide in the treatment and recovery process. In
April 2000, the SPV filed lawsuits in Montana State District Court and in the
United States District Court, seeking to have I-137 declared unconstitutional,
or, alternatively, to obtain a takings or damage award for the lost value of
the McDonald, Seven-Up Pete and Keep Cool mineral properties. These lawsuits
are based on, amongst others, (i) the right not to be deprived of property
without due process of law; (ii) the right to equal protection under the laws;
and (iii) the right to be protected against laws which impair the obligations
of existing contracts. The United States District Court issued a ruling August
30, 2001 in which the Court dismissed the SPVs substantive due process claim
but, as requested by the SPV, ruled that the remainder of the SPVs claims
could be pursued at such time as the State lawsuit was concluded. The Montana
State District Court issued a ruling November 1, 2001 in response to a Motion
to Dismiss and a Motion For Summary Judgment by the State of Montana. In this
ruling, the Court dismissed four of the SPVs fourteen counts, including its
substantive due process and equal protection challenges to I-137s validity.
The decision maintained for adjudication the contract impairment validity
challenge, contract damage claims, and all of the takings claims. Following
the November 2001 ruling by the State District Court, the State filed a new
Motion for Summary Judgment as to all claims. In an Order dated December 9,
2002, the Court granted the State Summary Judgment on all of the remaining
legal claims of the Companys lawsuit. On January 14, 2003, the Company filed
an 25

##### Table of Contents



appeal with the Montana State Supreme Court of the State District Court Order.
Oral arguments were heard by the Montana State Supreme Court on October 28,
2003. The Company expects a ruling during 2004. On March 2, 2004, the Montana Mining Association filed the language of a
proposed new initiative, I-147, to be placed before the voters of Montana at
the November 2, 2004 ballot which, if enacted, would allow use of cyanide
leaching in open-pit gold mines with appropriate engineering practices and
environmental safeguards. If qualified for the ballot and then enacted by
citizen vote in November 2004, I-147 would make unnecessary any favorable court
action on behalf of the Companys legal actions and would allow the Company to
resume permitting of the McDonald Gold Project. In any case, the Company will
continue its legal efforts until the I-137 impediment is removed. McDonald Gold Project  State Leases On September 24, 1998, the Montana Department of Natural Resources (DNRC),
the entity that administers state mineral leases, unilaterally decided to
cancel the permitting extension of the 10-year lease term of the state leases
that pertain to the McDonald Gold Project which would require the Company,
after a period of approximately seventeen months, to commence paying a delay
rental of $150,000 per month in order to maintain the leases. In February
2000, pursuant to its September 1998 decision, the DNRC determined that the
primary terms of the mineral leases had expired. The Company appealed the
action of the DNRC in an administrative hearing process and the DNRC Hearing
Examiner affirmed the DNRC action. It is the Companys position that the
permitting process has been interrupted by the threat and passage of I-137 and,
thus, the permit extension is continued until the governmental impediment is
resolved. As part of the I-137 lawsuit filed in April 2000 against the State of
Montana, the Company asked the court to review and invalidate the DNRCs
action, however, the court, in its December 9, 2002 order as described in the
preceding paragraph, denied the Companys petition for judicial review. On
January 14, 2003, the Company filed an appeal with the Montana State Supreme
Court. Oral arguments were heard by the Montana State Supreme Court on October
28, 2003. The Company expects a ruling during 2004. The proposed new initiative, I-147, described above contains a provision
which, if enacted, would restore all contractual interest or right in a mineral
estate which was diminished or lost as a consequence of the enactment of I-137
to the same rights at the date of the enactment of I-137 (November 3, 1998).
Since the state mineral leases were in full force and effect on November 3,
1998, the proposed new initiative, if qualified for the ballot and then enacted
by citizen vote in November 2004, would restore the state mineral leases to
full validity. Kendall Mine  Lawsuit and Preliminary Injunction In October 2001, a Plaintiff group filed suit in Montana District Court
against the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, CR Kendall Corporation,
alleging violation of water rights and other torts in connection with the
operation of the Kendall Mine. The Complaint seeks unspecified damages and
punitive damages. The Company believes the allegations are completely without
merit and that the Company will prevail in this matter. In August 2002, a Preliminary Injunction was issued in Montana District
Court on behalf of the Plaintiff group in connection with the Companys auction
of certain mineral rights and fee lands in western Montana. In October 2002,
the Court issued a Supplemental Order which will sequester up to $528,000
of any proceeds realized from the auction until such time as the lawsuit is
concluded. As of March 31, 2004, $267,800 had been remitted to the Court as
required by the Order. Including interest earned on the funds remitted, the
Court held $272,100 as of March 31, 2004. Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards: In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, (FIN No.
46) which provides guidance on the identification and reporting for entities
over which control is achieved through means other than voting rights. FIN No.
46 defines such entities 26

##### Table of Contents



as variable interest entities (VIEs). A FASB Staff Position issued in
October 2003 deferred the effective date of FIN No. 46 to the first interim or
annual period ending after December 15, 2003 for entities created before
February 1, 2003 if certain criteria are met. Subsequently, during December
2003, the FASB issued a revision to FIN No. 46 (FIN No. 46R) which replaces the
original interpretation. Application of this revised interpretation is required
in financial statements for companies that have interests in VIEs or potential
VIEs commonly referred to as special-purpose entities created after December
15, 2003. Application for entities created before January 1, 2004 is required
in financial statements for periods ending after March 15, 2004. The Company
believes it has no such variable interest entities and as a result FIN No. 46
did not have an impact on the Companys financial position, results of
operations, or cash flows. The Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) formed a committee (Committee) to
evaluate certain mining industry accounting issues, including issues arising
from the application of SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations(SFAS No. 141) and
SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Tangible Assets(SFAS No. 142) to business
combinations within the mining industry, accounting for goodwill and other
intangibles and the capitalization of costs after the commencement of
production, including deferred stripping. The issues discussed also included
whether mineral interests conveyed by leases represent tangible or intangible
assets and the amortization of such assets. In March 2004, the EITF reached a
consensus, subject to ratification by the FASB, that mineral interests conveyed
by leases should be considered tangible assets. The EITF also reached a
consensus, subject to ratification by the FASB, on other mining related issues
involving impairment and business combinations. On March 31, 2004, the FASB ratified the consensus of the EITF on other
mining related issues involving impairment and business combinations. This did
not have an impact to the Companys financial statements since it did not
change the Companys accounting. The FASB also ratified the consensus of the
EITF that mineral interests conveyed by leases should be considered tangible
assets subject to the finalization of a FASB Staff Position (FSP) in this
regard. On April 30, 2004, the FASB issued a FSP amending SFAS No. 141 and SFAS
No. 142 to provide that certain mineral use rights are considered tangible
assets and that mineral use rights should be accounted for based on their
substance. The FSP is effective for the first reporting period beginning after
April 29, 2004, with early adoption permitted. The Company is presently
evaluating the impact that adoption of the FSP will have on its financial
position, results of operations, and cash flows. The Committee is continuing its evaluation of mining industry accounting
issues, which may have an impact on the Companys accounting in the future. 
 Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk Commodity Prices The Companys earnings and cash flow are significantly impacted by changes
in the market price of gold. Gold prices can fluctuate widely and are affected
by numerous factors, such as demand, production levels, economic policies of
central banks, producer hedging, and the strength of the U.S. dollar relative
to other currencies. During the last five years, the average annual market
price has fluctuated between $271 per ounce and $364 per ounce. At March 31, 2004, future production from the Companys Briggs Mine was
unhedged. At current production levels, a $10 per ounce change in the price of
gold will impact the Companys annual profitability and cash flow by
approximately $0.3 million. 27

Interest Rates At March 31, 2004, the Companys debt was approximately $3.7 million of
which $2.7 million relates to its 6% convertible debentures and $1.0 million
relates to a fixed rate (6.75%) financing of a lease buy-out of the mining
fleet at the Briggs Mine. Thus, the Company is not presently subject to
interest rate risk. Foreign Currency The price of gold is denominated in U.S. dollars, and the Companys gold
production operations are in the United States. The Company conducts only a
minor amount of exploration activity in foreign countries and has minimal
foreign currency exposure. 
 Item 4. Controls and Procedures Based on an evaluation by the Companys management as of the end of the
period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, subject to and except for
the discussion below and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q concerning the restatement
of our financial statements, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer have concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and
procedures, as defined by regulations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is
amended (the Exchange Act), are effective to ensure that information required
to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under
the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the
time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms. The restatement of the Companys financial statements contained in this
Form 10-Q are described in Part I, Item 2, Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations under Restatement of
Financial Statements, and in Note 12 of the Notes to the Interim Consolidated
Financial Statements included in Part 1, Item 1. The Companys independent auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, identified
and communicated to the Company and its Audit Committee a material weakness
which is also a reportable condition (as defined under standards established by
the AICPA) relating to the Companys internal controls and procedures over its
financial reporting for stock option plans. In response thereto, the Company
has performed a review of all stock option plans and the method of all related
stock option exercises by employees since the plans inception in 1982. This
review identified that a minority (approximately 25%) of the employee stock
options were exercised using the share withholding method for payment of the
exercise price. Based on this review, the Company determined that the stock
option plans would have to be recorded in the financial statements under
variable plan accounting, which resulted in the restatement discussed in this
Form 10-Q. In response to this matter, the Company, during the second quarter
2004, has put additional internal controls in place over the accounting for
these stock option plans. The Company has identified no changes in the internal control over
financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31,
2004, and that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, our internal control over financial reporting, except as described
above. 28
