Item 1.  Description of Business.
         ------------------------

     Organization and Public Offering.
     ---------------------------------

     LKA International, Inc. (referred to as "LKA," "we," "us," "our" or words
of similar import in this Annual Report) was incorporated March 16, 1988, in
the State of Delaware.  Since our inception, our authorized capital has been
100,000,000 shares, consisting of 50,000,000 shares of common stock with a par
value of $0.001 per share, and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, also with
a par value of $0.001 per share.
     On March 30, 1988, we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a
Registration Statement on Form S-4.  That Registration Statement provided for
the registration of approximately 8,000,000 shares of our common stock to be
issued to the stockholders of LKA Holdings, Inc., a Utah corporation ("LKA
Utah"); and DiaEm Resources Ltd., a Wyoming corporation ("DiaEm").  These
shares were issued in connection with a three-way merger by which LKA Utah and
DiaEm were merged into LKA, with LKA being the surviving corporation.  The
merger was completed on or about August 19, 1988.

     Business Development.
     ---------------------

     Prior to their merger into LKA, both LKA Utah and DiaEm jointly owned
interests in certain mining properties located in North Carolina and Colorado.
Following the merger, and an inconclusive exploration program on the North
Carolina property, the land and equipment were sold at auction.  LKA's
activities associated with the Colorado properties have been sporadic since
they were acquired in December, 1982.

          The Lake City, Colorado Properties.
          -----------------------------------

     The Ute-Ule silver mine and milling facility and the Golden Wonder gold
mine (respectively, the "Ute-Ule Property" and the "Golden Wonder Property"
or, collectively, the "Properties"), consist of certain patented and
unpatented mining claims located in Hinsdale County, Colorado.  In December,
1982, LKA Utah acquired a 51% interest in the Properties from Lake City Mines,
Inc., a Colorado corporation ("Lake City Mines"), which retained the remaining
49% interest.  Immediately after the acquisition, LKA Utah assigned 90% of its
interest in the future proceeds that it had the right to receive from the
Properties to Caldera Partners Limited Partnership, a Washington limited
partnership ("Caldera") in return for approximately $1.6 million, which LKA
used to develop the Properties.  As a result, Caldera owned a 45.9% interest
in the future proceeds that LKA Utah had the right to receive on the
Properties.  LKA's President, Kye A. Abraham, is Caldera's Managing Partner.

     From 1983 through 1985, LKA Utah conducted exploration, development and
limited production activities at the Golden Wonder mine.  Additionally, it
renovated the 100 ton-per-day flotation mill located on the Ute-Ule Property
and completed a five-month pilot production program resulting in the sale of
approximately $590,000 of gold concentrates to ASARCO.  LKA Utah was forced to
discontinue its operations in early 1985 due to depressed gold prices.

     On December 15, 1993, through our newly-formed subsidiary, LKA
International, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("LKA Nevada"), we acquired Lake
City Mines' interests in the Properties through a Sheriff's Deed from the
sheriff of Hinsdale County.  As a result of this transaction, LKA owned a
54.1% interest in the proceeds receivable on the Properties, with Caldera
owning the remaining 45.9% interest.

     In 1992 and 1994, respectively, the Properties were leased to two
unaffiliated mining companies.  In both instances, LKA terminated the leases
due to the lessees' failure to meet the terms of the lease agreements.

     On July 1, 1997, we entered into a Lease Purchase Agreement whereby Au
Mining, Inc., a Colorado corporation ("Au Mining"), agreed to lease the
Properties, with the option to purchase them.  Au Mining entered into the
lease for the purpose of exploring, developing and commercially producing ore
from the Properties, specifically the Golden Wonder mine, in exchange for
payment to LKA of certain minimum annual royalties and net production royalty
payments based on the amount of ore removed from the mines.  These royalties
total 10% of all proceeds received, or which Au Mining is entitled to receive,
less deductions for assaying, transportation costs, smelting charges and
penalties, severance taxes and any state and federal royalties.

     Au Mining exercised its option to purchase the Properties and on July 2,
1999, we sold the Properties to Au Mining for $1,795,853.  On that date, Au
Mining executed a Promissory Note in the amount of $1,795,853 (the "Note").
The Note bears interest at an annual rate of 8%.  It requires quarterly
payments of $50,000, with the remaining balance payable in a lump sum on July
1, 2004.  In addition, all royalties that LKA receives from Au Mining as
discussed above are to be applied toward the purchase price of the Properties.
The Note is secured by a Deed of Trust on the Properties.

     Because we had a 54.1% interest in the proceeds that we were entitled to
receive from the Properties, we have the same interest in the Note receivable
from Au Mining.  As of December 31, 2002, we had received $913,521 in payments
under the terms of the Note.  We owed Caldera $946,384 and $888,665 as of
December 31, 2002, and 2001, respectively.  These amounts represent 45.9% of
the entire Note receivable as well as 45.9% of all recognized interest income
associated with the Note.  Although we have recorded the full amount of the
liability to Caldera as though full payment on the Note has been received, LKA
is only obligated to pay to Caldera its respective share of Note payments only
as such payments are actually collected.  This obligation is reflected in the
current portion of the Caldera payable, as it has been calculated as Caldera's
percentage of all previous receipts plus Caldera's portion of receipts
expected to be collected within one year.  As of December 31, 2002, and
December 31, 2001, respectively, the current portion of the amounts payable to
Caldera related to the Note were $456,267 and $151,710.  These amounts were
partially offset by accrued management fees payable to LKA as a reimbursement
for the salary of Mr. Abraham, who is a shared employee.  These management
fees totaled $95,987, and $47,987 as of December 31, 2002, and December 31,
2001, respectively.

     The Properties are held in trust until Au Mining pays the Note in full.
Due to the administrative difficulties involved in transferring permits and
associated reclamation bonds, we agreed with Au Mining that LKA would hold all
permits and bonds on the Properties until the Note is paid in full.  We also
agreed to indemnify Au Mining against any environmental claims that predate
the Lease Purchase Agreement.

     LKA and Au Mining are currently conducting discussions for the purpose of
exploring alternatives to the existing agreement.  The parties have been
discussing an arrangement that would provide LKA with a larger working
interest (up to 40%) in the production from the Golden Wonder mine in return
for an investment by LKA of up to $2 million.  LKA's investment, if made,
would be used to expand existing workings within the mine, develop additional
reserves and conduct exploration.

     LKA and Au have not yet finalized the terms of a new Lease Agreement and
there can be no assurance that if and when we reach a new agreement we will be
successful with any efforts to expand or develop additional ore zones within
the Golden Wonder or that market conditions will permit us to raise the
additional amounts required to engage in such a program.  If and when we enter
into a definitive agreement, we will timely disclose its terms in a Current
Report on Form 8-K or other suitable report to be filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.

Business.
---------

     Other than our activities on the Properties, we do not currently expect
to have any material operations during the next 12 months.  Management
continues to seek other business opportunities but we can not predict when and
if we may actually participate in any specific business endeavor, and will be
unable to do so until we determine the particular industries of interest to
management.

     Principal Products or Services and Their Markets.
     -------------------------------------------------

     We do not currently have any products or services.

     Distribution Methods of the Products or Services.
     -------------------------------------------------

     None; not applicable.

     Status of Any Publicly Announced New Product or Service.
     --------------------------------------------------------

     None; not applicable.

     Competitive Business Conditions.
     --------------------------------

     Management believes that there are literally thousands of non-operating
mining companies such as LKA.  We do believe that our competitive position in
the industry will be very insignificant.

     Sources and Availability of Raw Materials.
     ------------------------------------------

     We do not use any raw materials, as we do not directly conduct any
material operations.

     Dependence on One or a Few Major Customers.
     -------------------------------------------

     Although Au Mining is not a "customer" of LKA, we expect that payments
derived from Au Mining's operations will be our only material source of income
over the next 12 months.  As discussed under the subheading "Business
Development" above, Au Mining is currently paying us quarterly payments of
$50,000, plus royalties, under the terms of the existing Lease Purchase
Agreement and Note and Deed of Trust.  If we are able to finalize a new
agreement with Au Mining, or if Au Mining pays off the Note or ceases business
for any reason, LKA's cash flow would stop.

     Patents, Trademarks, Licenses, Franchises, Concessions, Royalty
Agreements or Labor Contracts.
------------------------------

     We have obtained "110d" limited impact permits from the Colorado Division
of Minerals and Geology and have posted reclamation bonds to ensure the clean-
up of environmental disturbances on the Ute-Ule and Golden Wonder Properties.
We are currently in compliance with all applicable permit and bonding
requirements in this regard.

     Reporting Requirements.
     -----------------------

     As an issuer whose securities are registered under Section 12(g) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), we are required to file
periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission").  In addition, the National Association of Securities Dealers,
Inc. (the "NASD"), requires that all issuers maintaining quotations of their
securities on the OTC Bulletin Board file periodic reports under the Exchange
Act, so if we apply for a trading symbol on the OTC Bulletin Board, the NASD
will also require that we remain current in our reporting obligations.

     The public may read and copy any materials that we file with the
Commission at the Commission's Public Reference Room at 450 Fifth Street N.W.,
Washington, DC  20549.  The public may obtain information on the operation of
the Public Reference Room by calling the Commission at 1-800-SEC-0330 or 1-
202-942-8090.  The Commission maintains an internet site that contains
reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding
issuers that file electronically with the Commission.  The address of that
site is http://www.sec.gov.

     Small Business Issuer.
     ----------------------

     The Commission's integrated disclosure system for small business issuers,
which was adopted in Release No. 34-30968 and became effective as of August
13, 1992, substantially modified the information and financial requirements of
a "Small Business Issuer," defined to be an issuer that has revenues of less
than $25,000,000; is a U.S. or Canadian issuer; is not an investment company;
and if a majority-owned subsidiary, the parent is also a small business
issuer; provided, however, an entity is not a small business issuer if it has
a public float (the aggregate market value of the issuer's outstanding
securities held by non-affiliates) of $25,000,000 or more.  LKA is deemed to
be a "small business issuer."

     Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
     -------------------

     On July 30, 2002, President Bush signed into law the Sarbanes-Oxley Act
of 2002.  The Sarbanes-Oxley Act imposes a wide variety of new regulatory
requirements on publicly-held companies and their insiders.  Many of these
requirements will affect us.  For example:

     *     Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer must
           now certify the accuracy of all of our periodic reports that
           contain financial statements;

     *     Our periodic reports must disclose our conclusions about the
           effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures; and

     *     We may not make any loan to any director or executive officer
           and we may not materially modify any existing loans.

     The Sarbanes-Oxley Act has required us to review our current procedures
and policies to determine whether they comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and
the new regulations promulgated thereunder.  We will continue to monitor our
compliance with all future regulations that are adopted under the Sarbanes-
Oxley Act and will take whatever actions are necessary to ensure that we are
in compliance.

     Research and Development.
     -------------------------

     We have not spent any money on research and development in the past five
years and we do not plan to make any such expenditures in the foreseeable
future.

     Costs and Effects of Compliance with Environmental Laws.
     --------------------------------------------------------

     As the owner of permits pertaining to the Properties, we are subject to
many federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to environmental
quality.  For example, any mining operations conducted on the Properties must
comply with federal and state laws and regulations that protect the quality of
surface water and groundwater.

     The Colorado Division of Minerals and Geology (the "Division") requires
mine operators to have permits to conduct mining activities in Colorado.  The
Division also requires operators to obtain a reclamation bond to ensure the
clean-up of disturbances on mining properties and conducts regular inspections
to make sure that the operators are in compliance with applicable
environmental laws and regulations.  We have obtained all necessary bonds and
permits required by the State of Colorado and believe that we are in
compliance with all laws and regulations in this regard.  However, we can
provide no assurance as to the impact on LKA of any future environmental laws
or regulations or any governmental interpretation of existing or future laws
or regulations.

     The federal Bureau of Land Management (the "BLM") has advised us of its
desire to extend to the Ute-Ule Property certain environmental clean-up
activities that it is conducting on neighboring properties that we do not own.
The BLM has commissioned and obtained an engineering evaluation and cost
analysis ("EE/CA") report on the Ute-Ule and the neighboring public lands.
This EE/CA, which was prepared by Harding ESE, Inc., analyzes the current
environmental state of the Ute-Ule Property and other properties in the area.
The EE/CA has identified a large volume of mine tailings and metals loading of
shallow ground water, with elevated levels of arsenic, cadmium and lead being
present.  The total clean-up costs on all of these properties are estimated at
approximately $7 million, with the projected clean-up cost of the Ute-Ule
alone estimated at approximately $4,317,000.
     In the second phase of the cleanup project, the BLM and the federal
Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA") will select an overall site
cleanup plan and final engineering plans, followed by implementation of the
plan.  Under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation
and Liability Act ("CERCLA"), the  BLM and EPA may either require a property
owner to perform the necessary cleanup or the agencies may perform the work
and seek recovery of costs against the owner.

     As of the date of this Report, management has had two meetings with the
BLM in an effort to negotiate a settlement of this matter.  The BLM has taken
the position that LKA will be liable for the cleanup on the Ute-Ule property,
with the timing of the cleanup, the ultimate cost, and LKA's share of the
total cost, still to be determined.  The BLM has indicated its willingness to
negotiate a settlement of the matter and LKA intends to vigorously defend
itself.

     On February 10, 2003, which is subsequent to the period covered by this
Report, we obtained from John A. Emery, Ph.D., a report concluding that the
BLM has failed to demonstrate that mining wastes at the site are causing any
significant environmental damage.  The following are some of the principal
reasons for this disagreement:

     *  Henson Creek, which runs through the Property, and the nearby drinking
        water aquifers meet all Colorado water quality standards;

     *  The BLM report is based on a series of "cascading," worst-case
        scenarios, which together are highly unlikely to happen;

     *  The greatest environmental risk comes from leaching of metals from the
        soil and tailings, but the soil and rocks and the site are highly
        leach-resistant;

     *  The native soils and rocks in the area have high levels of the two
        primary metals in question, lead and zinc, making remediation efforts
        even more futile;

     *  The BLM report uses questionable sampling methodology such as using
        data from the most contaminated, non-representative samples;

     *  A 1999 report published by the Colorado Department of Public Health
        indicate that the mining wastes on the Ute-Ule Property are not
        causing any environmental damage;

     *  Since much of the mining waste has been on site for over 100 years,
        any environmental damage would be apparent by now, yet there is no
        demonstrated damage;

     *  Due to the amount of earth-moving that would be required, any
        "remediation" efforts may actually increase environmental damage; and

     *  Relatively inexpensive actions such as fencing and certain surface
        water run-on controls could be taken to address the BLM's more serious
        concerns.

     However, we are in the very early stages of this process and we can
not accurately predict what our ultimate liability, if any, will be.


     Employees.
     ----------

     Kye A. Abraham is LKA's only full-time employee.  Nanette K. Abraham
assists with bookkeeping and administrative work, but receives no financial
remuneration.

Risk Factors.
-------------

     Losses to Date.
     ---------------

     From January 1, 1997, through December 31, 2002, LKA has had cumulative
net losses from operations of $582,011.  During the same period, cumulative
net losses have totaled $69,188.  We have incurred significant losses since
inception and have had no revenues in the past five years.  There can be no
assurance that we will be profitable in the future.

     Potential Environmental Liability.
     ----------------------------------

     As discussed under "Costs and Effects of Compliance with Environmental
Laws," above, the BLM has issued an EE/CA which identifies certain
environmental hazards on the Ute-Ule property, with an estimated potential
cost of approximately $4,317,000 to clean up these hazards.  We are in the
early stages of negotiation with the BLM with respect to LKA's responsibility,
if any, for the cleanup and what costs, if any, we may be liable for.  We
intend to make our case as vigorously as possible.  However, we could be
financially devastated if we are found liable for all or a large portion of
the $4,317,000 estimated cleanup costs on the Ute-Ule, as that amount is
substantially larger than our total assets.

     Dependence on One Source of Income.
     -----------------------------------

     Au Mining's quarterly payments and royalties under the Promissory Note
and the royalties to be paid under any lease agreement that we may enter into
with Au Mining are our only expected sources of material income in the next 12
months.  If Au Mining goes out of business or is otherwise unable to
economically recover ore from the Properties, and if LKA is unable to find
another qualified operator, we will lose our only material source of income.

     We Do Not Know How Much Commercially Recoverable Ore the Properties
Contain.
--------

     Because we do not have any definitive reserve studies on the Properties,
we do not know how much commercially recoverable ore they contain.  We can not
assure you that it will be continue to be economically feasible to conduct
mining operations on the Properties.  If it is not economically feasible, any
royalties from the Golden Wonder mine under any lease agreement with Au
Mining, which we expect to be our largest source of income, would also cease.

     Need for Additional Funding.
     ----------------------------

     If LKA is successful in negotiating a new lease agreement with Au Mining
and increasing its interest in the Golden Wonder mine, or any other project
that management may deem suitable, a significant additional investment of up
to $2 million, or more, would be required.  We expect that Au Mining would use
any additional investment by LKA to explore and/or develop ore bodies within
the Golden Wonder mine. Accordingly, our success or lack of success in raising
additional funds may determine whether we make a profit in the future.

     Furthermore, we can not assure you that even if we raise an additional $2
million through an offering of our securities that such amounts will be
sufficient to develop new, commercially viable ore bodies within the Golden
Wonder Property.  It is possible that subscribers under any such offering
would gain little or no economic benefit from their investment.

     Potential Dilution to Existing Stockholders.
     --------------------------------------------

     We expect that any future fundraising under any lease agreement would
take the form of a private placement or public offering of our common or
preferred stock.  The sale of additional shares of our common or preferred
stock will reduce the proportionate ownership interests of our existing
stockholders.

     No Public Market for Our Securities.
     ------------------------------------

     There is no public market for our securities and we can not guarantee
that any public market will develop or be maintained in the future.  As a
result, stockholders may not be able to sell their shares readily, if at all.

     Limit on Directors' Liability.
     ------------------------------

     Article VIII of our Certificate of Incorporation provides that a director
of the corporation is not personally liable to us or our stockholders for
breach of fiduciary duties as a director, except for breach of duty of
loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law, payment of dividends or redemption
of stock in violation of corporate statute and for any transaction from which
the director derived any improper personal benefit.  Article VIII further
provides that if the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "Delaware Law") is
subsequently amended to further eliminate or limit the personal liability of
directors, the liability of a director of the corporation shall be eliminated
to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware Law.  Article IX of our
Certificate of Incorporation and Article V of our Bylaws also provide for
indemnification of directors, executive officers, employees and agents of LKA
to the fullest extent allowed under the Delaware Law.

     Issuance of Preferred Stock.
     ----------------------------

     LKA has authorized 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par
value, none of which is currently issued or outstanding.  The Board of
Directors has the authority, without action by our stockholders, to issue the
authorized and unissued preferred stock in one or more series and to determine
the voting rights, preferences as to dividends and liquidation, conversion
rights, and other rights of any series.  Preferred stock may, if and when
issued, have rights superior to those of the common stock.

     No Dividends.
     -------------

     We have never paid any cash dividends and do not intend to pay any
dividends in the foreseeable future.  We intend to retain substantially all
future earnings, if any, for use in our business.

     No Cumulative Voting.
     ---------------------

     Cumulative voting in the election of our directors is not allowed.
Accordingly, the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock
present, in person or by proxy, at any regularly convened shareholder's
meeting at which the Board of Directors is elected will be able to elect all
directors, and the minority shareholders will not be able to elect a
representative to the Board of Directors.

     Dependence on Key Employees and Technical Personnel.
     ----------------------------------------------------

     For the foreseeable future, LKA will be entirely dependent upon
the services of Kye A. Abraham, its President.  Mr. Abraham is in good
health; however, his retirement, resignation, disability or death would
require us to identify and hire a qualified person to serve in his place.  To
the extent that his services become unavailable, LKA will be required to
retain other qualified personnel; there can be no assurance that LKA will be
able to recruit and hire qualified persons upon acceptable terms.  We
currently have no employment agreement with Mr. Abraham and do not maintain
"key man" life insurance for him.  The loss of Mr. Abraham or our inability to
attract or retain other qualified employees could seriously impair our results
of operations and financial condition.

     Our Securities are "Penny Stock."
     ---------------------------------

     Our common stock is "penny stock" as defined in Rule 3a51-1 of the
Commission.  This designation may adversely affect the development of any
public market for our shares of common stock or, if such a market
develops, its continuation.  Broker-dealers are required to personally
determine whether an investment in "penny stock" is suitable for customers.

     Penny stocks are securities (i) with a price of less than five dollars
per share; (ii) that are not traded on a "recognized" national exchange; (iii)
whose prices are not quoted on the NASDAQ automated quotation system (NASDAQ-
listed stocks must still meet requirement (i) above); or (iv) of an issuer
with net tangible assets less than $2,000,000 (if the issuer has been in
continuous operation for at least three years) or $5,000,000 (if in continuous
operation for less than three years), or with average annual revenues of less
than $6,000,000 for the last three years.

     Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act, and Rule 15g-2 of the Commission
require broker/dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors
with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually
signed and dated written receipt of the document before effecting any
transaction in a penny stock for the investor's account.  Potential investors
in our common stock are urged to obtain and read such disclosure carefully
before purchasing any shares that are deemed to be "penny stock."

     Rule 15g-9 of the Commission requires broker-dealers in penny stocks to
approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before
selling any penny stock to that investor.  This procedure requires the broker-
dealer to (i) obtain from the investor information concerning his or her
financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; (ii)
reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny
stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient
knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks
of penny stock transactions; (iii) provide the investor with a written
statement setting forth the basis on which the broker-dealer made the
determination in (ii) above; and (iv) receive a signed and dated copy of such
statement from the investor, confirming that it accurately reflects the
investor's financial situation, investment experience and investment
objectives.  Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult for
our stockholders to resell their shares to third parties or to otherwise
dispose of them.

     The Sale of "Restricted" Shares May Reduce the Price Per Share of Our
Common Stock.
-------------

     All of the 2,293,522 shares of our common stock that are owned or
controlled by Kye A. Abraham are "restricted" securities within the meaning of
Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  If a market for our
common stock ever develops, Mr. Abraham may begin selling shares at any time,
subject to compliance with Rule 144.  Such sales may have a negative effect on
our stock price.

Item 2.  Description of Property.
         ------------------------

     We are currently negotiating with Au Mining for the rescission of the
Lease Purchase Agreement by which we sold the Properties to Au Mining.  If the
rescission takes place as anticipated, LKA will own a 100% interest in the
Ute-Ule and Golden Wonder Properties, but will still be obligated to pay to
Caldera 45.9% of the proceeds that we receive from the Properties.  We are not
currently engaged in any mining operations on these Properties or anywhere
else.

     Both the Ute-Ule silver mine and the Golden Wonder gold mine are vein
type deposits associated with volcanic activity occurring millions of years
ago during a turbulent period known in geology as Tertiary time.  During this
violent geologic era, most of the known precious metal mines in the State of
Colorado were formed along a southwest to northeast channel or narrow band
approximately 20 miles wide, which stretches in a diagonal trend from Durango
in the southwest to Boulder County in the northeast.  This zone has been
called the Colorado Mineral Belt.  Lake City, Colorado lies astride this
mineral belt in a topographical cul de sac 57 miles southwest of Gunnison,
Colorado.  On the other side of the mountain range that encloses the cul de
sac are the historic precious metal mining districts of Ouray, Telluride,
Silverton and Creede, which were productive in the late 19th century.  Since
it entered into the Lease Purchase Agreement with us, Au Mining has recovered
approximately 47,084 ounces of gold on the Properties, valued at approximately
$13 million.

     Each Property is described below.

     Ute-Ule Group.
     --------------

     The Ute-Ule Property consist of 23 patented mining claims located
approximately four miles west of Lake City, Colorado.  These are highly
mineralized silver-lead-zinc mines with excellent access via a gravel road
that is maintained year-round by the County of Hinsdale.  This road goes from
the Property to Lake City and from Lake City a blacktop road (State Highway
149) extends northward approximately 46 miles to an intersection with U.S. 50,
about nine miles west of Gunnison, Colorado.

     This Property has a long history of mineral extraction dating back to the
nineteenth century.  Most of this extraction occurred between 1874 and 1903.

     We can not assure you that the mineralized material found on the Property
can be mined and milled on a commercial basis.

     The Ute Mill.
     -------------

     A 100 ton-per-day flotation mill, including various equipment and support
facilities, exists on the Ute-Ule Property.  The mill is located at the level
of the main haulage tunnel of the Ute mine.  It is in satisfactory condition
and was used effectively by LKA Utah to mill ore from the Golden Wonder mine
during a 1984 pilot production program.  The mill is also ideally suited for
the processing of ore from the Ute-Ule mines.

     To the knowledge of management, this mill is the only mill located in the
Lake City District.  Since the Lake City District has no smelting facilities,
ore and ore concentrates, if any, from the Properties, or other mines in the
district would have to be sent to smelters in other distant locations.

     Since the mill is the only one in the Lake City District and construction
of another mill of this size would be possible only at substantial cost and
subject to considerable environmental constraints, management believes that
LKA could derive income from custom milling or the sale of the mill if it re-
acquires the Properties and if mining is successfully revived in the District.

     Water for milling and the power needs of the mill has historically been
available through water rights pertaining to the Property.  Although we
believe the Property is currently in compliance with applicable laws and
regulations, any future operations at the mill may require additional settling
ponds and additional treatment of waste water may be required to preserve
water quality.  We do not believe that these requirements would impose an
undue burden on us.

     If LKA were to re-acquire the Ute-Ule Property pursuant to a renegotiated
lease agreement with Au Mining or Au Mining's forfeiture of the Properties by
failing to make its royalty or quarterly payments under the terms of the
existing Note and Deed of Trust, substantial additional funding would be
required to make the mill operational.  We can provide no assurance that we
would be successful in any such fundraising.

     Golden Wonder.
     --------------

     The Golden Wonder Property consists of three patented and 18 unpatented
mining claims located approximately 2-1/2 miles south of Lake City, Colorado.
It has been worked intermittently since its discovery in 1880.  The Property
can be reached by following Colorado State Highway 149 south of Lake City to
the Vickers Ranch, and then following an easement over unimproved road through
the ranch to the mine.  The mine is at an elevation of 10,323 feet and is
situated on a hill slope approximately 1,500 feet above the valley floor.  It
lies at the head of "Dead Man's Gulch."

     The initial discovery was made after finding high grade float in the
surface containing free gold.  A limited body of ore was mined prior to 1889.
The Property was generally unworked through 1930.  From 1930 to 1969, sporadic
mining and development efforts were conducted, some of which resulted in the
extraction of ore.

     During the summer of 1969, Southern Union Production Company ("Supron")
began an exploration program at the Golden Wonder.  Out of this, the SUPCO
winze (a steeply inclined passageway connecting the mine workings) was started
in the winter of 1970-1971 and completed to a depth of approximately 150 feet
below the third level of the mine, with lateral drifting along the course of
mineralization off the winze on the fourth level.  Work was halted on the
property in 1972, when Supron decided to discontinue all its metallic mineral
operations in the western United States and South America.  In 1973, Rocky
Mountain Ventures secured a lease on the Property and shipped a small tonnage
of dump material to a mill then operating at Crested Butte, Colorado for
processing.

     The Golden Wonder has been explored and developed by drifts on six
different levels, with raises and winzes connecting the lower levels.  In
1984, LKA Utah conducted a five-month pilot production program that resulted
in the sale of approximately $590,000 of gold concentrates to ASARCO.  The
average grade of the ore produced during the pilot program was 0.96 ounces of
gold per ton and the average gold price at that time was $325 per ounce.  The
majority of this production was derived from two slopes on the mine's fourth
level, which consistently averaged one ounce of gold per ton.  Commercial
quantities of gold were also taken from the mine's fifth level.  Beginning in
1997, Au Mining has conducted, and is currently conducting, mining operations
at the mine's fifth and sixth levels.

     Office Space.
     -------------

     We currently lease approximately 750 square feet of office space located
at 3724 47th Street Ct. N.W., Gig Harbor, Washington.  We pay monthly rent of
$750 to Abraham and Co., Inc. an NASD member broker/dealer which is controlled
by our President, Kye A. Abraham.  The office is attached to Mr. Abraham's
home.  The lease arrangement is a month-to-month oral lease with Mr. Abraham.

Item 3.  Legal Proceedings.
         ------------------

     Except as discussed below, LKA is not the subject of any pending legal
proceedings and, to the knowledge of management, no proceedings are presently
contemplated against LKA by any federal, state or local governmental agency.

     LKA is a plaintiff in Northern Arizona Group SMR et al. v. Allen et al.,
which was filed in the Superior Court of the State of California for the
County of Orange and designated Case No. 818405.  In its complaint, as
amended, LKA alleged that the defendants made certain misrepresentations in
connection with LKA's purchase of 875 shares of the common stock of Allen
Wireless Group, a Delaware corporation, for total consideration of $7,000.
We, along with the other stockholders of Allen Wireless Group, are seeking
rescission of our stock purchase agreement and a return of the purchase money
or, in the alternative, compensatory and consequential damages, in addition to
punitive, exemplary and special damages and interest.  The case is currently
in the discovery stage and no trial date has been set.

     As discussed under "Costs and Effects of Compliance with Environmental
Laws" above, we are currently engaged in settlement discussions with the BLM
over LKA's potential liability, if any, for clean-up costs on the Ute-Ule
Property.  These negotiations  are in the very early stages as of the date of
this Annual Report, and we can not  estimate what portion of the BLM's
estimated $4,317,000 cleanup cost, if any, we may ultimately be found liable
for.  Settlement discussions are expected to continue well into 2003.

     To the knowledge of management, no director or executive officer
is party to any action in which any has an interest adverse to LKA.

Item 4.  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
         ----------------------------------------------------

     No matter was submitted to a vote of our security holders during the
calendar year covered by this Annual Report or during the two previous
calendar years.

                                  PART II

Item 5.  Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder
Matters.
--------

Market Information.
-------------------

     There is no "established trading market" for our shares of common stock.
In the future, we may submit for listing on the OTC Bulletin Board of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD"); however,
management does not expect any established trading market to develop unless
and until we have material operations.  In any event, no assurance can be
given that any market for our common stock will develop or be maintained.  If
a public market ever develops in the future, the sale of "unregistered" and
"restricted" shares of common stock pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities and
Exchange Commission by members of management or others may have a substantial
adverse impact on any such market.  All of these persons have satisfied the
one-year holding period requirement of Rule 144.  See "Sales of Unregistered
Securities During the Past Three Years," of this Annual Report.

Holders
-------

     The number of record holders of our common stock as of the date of this
Annual Report is approximately 1155.  This does not include an indeterminate
number of stockholders who may hold their shares in "street name."

Dividends
---------

     LKA has not declared any cash dividends with respect to its common stock
and does not intend to declare dividends in the foreseeable future.  There are
no material restrictions limiting, or that are likely to limit, our ability to
pay dividends on our common stock.

Securities Authorized For Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

     We have not adopted any equity compensation plans and have no securities
authorized for issuance under any such plans.

Sales of Unregistered Securities During the Past Three Years.
------------------------------------------------------------

     We have not sold any unregistered securities since 1988.

Item 6.  Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
         ----------------------------------------------------------

     Other than managing its interests in the Properties as discussed above,
LKA has not engaged in any material operations during the years ended December
31, 2002, and 2001.

     Currently, Au Mining's payments on its Note are our only source of
income.  If we are able to rescind the sale of the Properties to Au Mining and
enter into a new lease agreement, our plan of operation for the next 12
months, assuming favorable market conditions, will be to raise the required
equity funding under that agreement for the purpose of expanding and/or
developing additional ore bearing zones within the Golden Wonder mine.  We
currently anticipate that should such a program be undertaken, LKA would be
entitled to an increased royalty percentage, up to 40% for an additional
investment of up to $2 million.  As of the date of this filing, these
discussions with Au Mining have not been finalized.

     We expect that any anticipated funding will take place through the
private placement of our common or preferred stock pursuant to applicable
exemptions from registration provided by Regulation D of the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

     LKA and Au Mining both believe that it will take at least $1 million to
begin the development of substantial additional ore bearing zones within the
Golden Wonder Property.  We can not assure you that we will be successful in
raising the required amounts.

                   INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Stockholders of
LKA International, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
Gig Harbor, Washington

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of LKA
International, Inc. (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2002, and
the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and
cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, and from inception
of the development stage on January 1, 1997 through December 31, 2002. These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America.  Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit
includes examining, on a test basis evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position
of LKA International, Inc. (a development stage company) as of December 31,
2002, and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows
for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, and from inception of
the development stage on January 1, 1997 through December 31, 2002, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Consolidated financial statements presented are those of LKA
International, Inc. (the Company), a Delaware corporation, its majority owned
partnership and its wholly-owned subsidiary (LKA International, Inc.), a
Nevada corporation.  The Company was incorporated on March 15, 1988, under the
laws of the State of Delaware.  The Company was engaged in natural resource
projects, but ceased operations shortly thereafter due to high capital
investments and the risk of no return.  The Company has yet to begin
operations and is seeking attractive opportunities to acquire or merge with.

a.  Accounting Methods

The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of
accounting.  The Company has elected a calendar year-end.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

c.  Income Taxes

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets
are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax
credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable
temporary differences.  Temporary differences are the differences between the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases.  Deferred tax
assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of
management, it is more likely that not that some portion or all of the
deferred tax assets will not be realized.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of
enactment.

Net deferred tax liabilities consist of the following components as of
December 31, 2002 and 2001:

                                                 2002         2001

The income tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by
applying the U.S. federal and state income tax rates of 39% to pretax income
from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 due
to the following:

                                              2002
              2001

-
          Valuation allowance         $                 -           $      -

At December 31, 2002, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of
$1,150,000 that may be offset against future taxable income from the year 2002
through 2022.  No tax benefit has been reported in the December 31, 2002
consolidated financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by
a valuation allowance of the same amount.

          Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
                    December 31, 2002 and 2001


NOTE 1 -                       ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES (Continued)

c.  Income Taxes (Continued)

Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net
operating loss carryforwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are
subject to annual limitations.  Should a change in ownership occur, net
operating loss carryforwards may be limited as to use in future years.



d.  Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three
months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

e.  Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include those of LKA International, Inc.
(the Company) and its 100% owned subsidiary LKA International, Inc.  All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

f.  Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

g.  Revenue Recognition Policy

The Company currently has no source of revenues.  Prior to the sale of mining
property during the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999 (see Note 2), the
Company leased the mining properties in exchange for royalty payments based on
the amount of ore removed from the mines.  Revenue recognition policies for
new activities and operations will be determined when principal operations
begin.

h.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company adopted the provisions of
FASB Statement No. 140 "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial
Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities (a replacement of FASB Statement No.
125.), FASB Statement No. 141, "Business Combinations," FASB Statement  No.
142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," FASB Statement No. 143,
"Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations," FASB Statement No. 144,
"Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," and FIN 44
"Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation (an
interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25.)." The effect of these adopted
provisions on the Company's financial statements was not significant.

NOTE 1 -                       ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES (Continued)

i.  Reclassification of Prior Period Balances

Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform with the current
year presentation.

NOTE 2 -    SALE OF PROPERTY

On July 2, 1999, the Company sold property in Colorado to AU Mining, Inc. for
a note receivable of $1,795,853.  The note receivable bears interest at 8% per
annum, requires quarterly payments of $50,000 with the remaining balance
payable via lump sum on July 1, 2004.  The note is secured by a Deed of Trust
on the properties.  Based on the provisions of paragraphs 11-12 and 53-54 of
Financial Accounting Standard (FAS) 66: Accounting for Sales of Real Estate,
the buyer's initial and continuing investment was inadequate to demonstrate a
commitment to pay for the obligation.  As such, the Company's gain on the sale
has been deferred.  As of December 31, 2002, the Company had received $913,521
in payments on the note.  See Note 5.

The Company had a 100% interest in the land, but only holds a 54.1% interest
in the note receivable, as the Company had assigned 45.9% of the future
proceeds and benefits from the land to Caldera Partners Limited Partnership
(Caldera) in 1982.  The Chief Executive Officer of the Company also owns  a
controlling interest in Caldera, and as such, Caldera is considered to be a
related party.

As of December 31, 2002, the Company owes Caldera $946,383.  This amount
represents 45.9% of the total  note receivable as well as 45.9% of all
recognized interest income associated with the note.  This amount is then
offset by accrued management fees payable to LKA as a reimbursement for the
salary of a shared employee of $95,987 as of December 31, 2002.

NOTE 3 -    RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company owes Cognitive Associates Limited Partnership (a Company
controlled and managed by the President and CEO of LKA) $56,828 in unpaid
principal from a note dated December 31, 1986.  The note is unsecured, due
upon demand, and accrues interest at 10% per annum.  No payments were made
during the year ended December 31, 2002.  Accrued interest related to this
note was $25,191 as of December 31, 2002.

The Company owes Cognitive Intelligence Limited Partnership (a Company
controlled and managed by the President and CEO of LKA) $5,975 in unpaid
principal from a note dated October 1, 1987.  The note is unsecured, due upon
demand, and accrues interest at 10% per annum.  No payments were made during
the year ended December 31, 2002.  Accrued interest related to this note was
$4,316 as of December 31, 2002.

                    December 31, 2002 and 2001


NOTE 3 -    RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (Continued)

The Company pays a company owned by an officer and shareholder $750 per month
for office rent and expenses.  That company also holds the Company's
securities and handles investment transactions for it.

During the year ended December 31, 2002 the Company paid $20,000 in legal fees
on behalf of related parties and advanced $2,500 to a Company controlled by
the CEO of LKA.  These amounts have been treated as short term advances as
they are expected to be fully collected within twelve months.

The Company owed its Chief Executive Officer and sole employee $3,300 for
reimbursable expenses as of December 31, 2002.

NOTE 4 -                       SECURITIES AND INVESTMENTS

The Company has traditionally maintained a diverse portfolio of investments in
marketable equity securities.  Management determines the appropriate
classification of the securities at the time they are acquired and evaluates
the appropriateness of such classifications at each balance sheet date.  All
securities owned are held for resale in anticipation of short-term
fluctuations in market prices, and are therefore classified as trading
securities.  Trading securities, consisting primarily of actively traded
equity securities, are stated at fair value.  Realized and unrealized gains
and losses are included in income.  The value of these securities held by the
Company was $30,000 as of December 31, 2002.

NOTE 5 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent Collections

Subsequent to the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company has received
$186,565 in payments related to the AU mining Company note receivable.  See
Note 2.

Notification of Possible Environmental Remediation

During the fall of 2002, the Federal Bureau of Land Management (the "BLM")
advised the Company of its desire to extend to the Ute-Ule Property (See Note
2) certain environmental clean-up activities that it is conducting on
neighboring properties that the Company does not own.

                    December 31, 2002 and 2001


NOTE 5 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (Continued)

Notification of Possible Environmental Remediation (Continued)

The BLM has commissioned and obtained an engineering evaluation and cost
analysis ("EE/CA") report on the Ute-Ule and the neighboring public lands.
The EE/CA, which was released for a 30 day public comment period in December
of 2002, has identified a large volume of mine tailings and metals loading of
shallow ground water, with elevated levels of arsenic, cadmium and lead being
present.  The total clean-up costs on all of these properties are estimated at
approximately $7 million, with the projected clean-up cost of the Ute-Ule
alone estimated at approximately $4,317,000.  As of March 26, 2003, the BLM is
still in the process of preparing a written response to public comments
received concerning the EE/CA.  Once the public comments have been evaluated,
the BLM will select an overall site clean-up plan and will determine the final
engineering plans.  The BLM will then enter into the process of implementing
those plans.

Under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and
Liability Act ("CERCLA"), the BLM and EPA may either require a property owner
to perform the necessary cleanup or the agencies may perform the work and seek
recovery of costs against the owner.  The BLM has taken the position that the
Company will be liable for the cleanup on the Ute-Ule property, with the
timing of the cleanup, the ultimate cost, and the Company's share of the total
cost, still to be determined.  The BLM has indicated its willingness to
negotiate a settlement of the matter and the Company intends to vigorously
defend itself.  However, the Company is in the very early stages of this
process and can not accurately predict what the ultimate liability, if any,
will be.

Item 14.  Controls and Procedures.
          ------------------------

     Within 90 days prior to the date of this report, we carried out an
evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our President
and Secretary/Treasurer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of
our disclosure controls and procedures.  Based on this evaluation, our
President and Secretary/Treasurer concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information
required to be included in our periodic Securities and Exchange Commission
reports.  It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is
based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events,
and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its
stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
In addition, we reviewed our internal controls, and there have been no
significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could
significantly affect those controls subsequent to the date of their last
evaluation.
