(a) GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS

Silverado  Gold Mines Ltd.  ("Silverado"  or "the  Company"),  is engaged in the
acquisition,  exploration and development of mineral  properties.  Silverado was
incorporated  under the laws of British  Columbia,  Canada,  in June,  1963, and
operates in the United States through a wholly-owned subsidiary,  Silverado Gold
Mines Inc., incorporated in the State of Alaska in 1981.

Silverado's  exploration and development activities are managed and conducted by
an affiliated  company,  Tri-Con Mining Ltd.  ("Tri-Con")  pursuant to a written
operating  agreement.  Tri-Con is a privately  owned  corporation  controlled by
Garry L. Anselmo, who is Chairman and a director of Silverado.

The Company  holds  interests in six groups of mineral  properties in Alaska and
one in British Columbia,  Canada.  Silverado's main projects are exploration and
development  of the Ester  Dome Gold  Project,  located  10 miles  northwest  of
Fairbanks,  Alaska,  and of the Nolan Gold  Project,  located 175 miles north of
Fairbanks, Alaska.

The Ester Dome  Project  comprises  a  contiguous  group of 1 Federal  claim,  1
patented mining claim and 472 State claims  totaling 24 square miles,  including
the Grant Mine, Range Minerals,  May / Barelka (St. Paul) and Dobb's Properties,
all located within the Fairbanks Mining District in Alaska.

On December 19, 1997, the Company  entered into an Option  Agreement with LaTeko
Resources Ltd.  ("LaTeko")  granting Silverado the exclusive right and option to
acquire  100%  of the  Ryan  Lode  property,  a  property  situated  next to the
Company's Ester Dome properties  near  Fairbanks,  Alaska,  for a total purchase
price  of  $12,000,000.  The  Company  issued  1,000,000  of its  common  shares
(pre-share  consolidation) to LaTeko as consideration for granting the right and
option to acquire the mineral property. In March of 1998, the Company terminated
its option to purchase the property.  Costs of $227,449 incurred during the year
relating to the Ryan Lode property and all previous  deferred costs were written
off during the year.

The Company completed an option agreement with Placer Dome U.S. Inc. ("PDUS") on
February 6, 1998 for that company to continue  exploration  of 20.5 square miles
of Silverado's Ester Dome property.  The agreement  excludes the St. Paul, Grant
Mine and Mill,  and Ryan Lode areas  which  Silverado  retained  and  intends to
develop, subject to the availability of financing. Under the agreement, PDUS was
to earn a 51.5%  interest by performing a minimum of  $10,000,000 of work on the
property and purchasing  5,450,000 common shares of the Company over a period of
five  years.  During  1998,  the  Company  received  $400,000  in cash  and PDUS
performed  $1,000,000  of  work on the  property.  On  November  9,  1998,  PDUS
exercised its option to terminate the agreement with the Company.

The Nolan Gold  Project  consists of 216 Federal  placer  claims and 239 Federal
lode claims located eight miles west of Wiseman, Alaska. Included in the Project
are the Nolan  Placer,  Nolan  Lode,  Thompson's  Pup,  Dionne  and Smith  Creek
properties.  During 1998 the Company  concentrated  its  activities on Archibald
Creek,  which is  located  within  Nolan  Placer.  Limited  mining  of the Swede
Channel,  located within Dionne,  was also undertaken during 1998. The Company's
share of total gold  recovered  from the Nolan Gold Project in 1998  amounted to
144 ounces.

The Hammond Property, immediately north of the Nolan Gold Project and consisting
of 28 Federal placer and 36 Federal lode claims,  was acquired by the Company in
December 1994 to increase potential for reserve  development in conjunction with
the Company's operations at Nolan.

The Marshall Dome Property  consists of 38 State claims.  Thirty-five  of the 38
claims were  acquired by the  Company in 1995 due to its  proximity  and similar
geological  setting to Newmont  Mining  Company's  "True  North" gold  property,
immediately to the southwest.  The remaining  three adjacent claims were located
and acquired by the Company prior to 1995. The Marshall Dome Property  covers an
area of two and one-half square miles,  and is located  eighteen miles northeast
of Fairbanks.

The Whiskey Gulch Property,  consisting of four claims adjoining Newmont's "True
North" property,  and was acquired by the Company in 1996 to further enhance its
Marshall Dome Property by virtue of its proximity to those claims.

The Chatanika  Property  consists of 752 mining claims and 16 prospecting  sites
covering  52 square  miles  which  were  located by the  Company  in 1996.  This
property is approximately 20 miles northwest of Fairbanks. On November 30, 1998,
the Company chose to relinquish its interest in this property.

The French Peak Property consists of four mineral claims totaling  approximately
one  square  mile,  and is  located  40 miles  northwest  of  Smithers,  British
Columbia.

(b) FINANCIAL INFORMATION RE: INDUSTRY SEGMENTS

The Company operates in one industry segment, being the mining industry.

(c) PLAN OF OPERATION

The  Company's  plan of  operation  is to continue to develop and mine its Nolan
properties  specifically  the Swede  Channel,  Archibald  Creek and Smith  Creek
areas. In this area the Company has recovered almost 14,000 ounces of gold since
1994. The Company is currently stock piling ore through the winter months.  When
the snow melts in May-June the ore will be processed and the recovered gold will
be marketed.  The Company is also planning to mine this summer with  con-current
processing and gold recovery from summer operations on Archibald and Smith Creek
areas.

During 1998 the Company successfully  negotiated an option agreement with Placer
Dome U.S. Inc. to conduct  exploration  and  development on 20.5 square miles of
the Company's  Ester Dome  properties.  Under the agreement,  PDUS was to earn a
51.5%  interest by performing a minimum of  $10,000,000  of work on the property
and  purchasing  5,450,000  common  shares of the Company  over a period of five
years.  During 1998,  the Company  received  $400,000 in cash and PDUS performed
$1,000,000  of work on the  property.  On November 9, 1998,  PDUS  exercised its
option to terminate the agreement with the Company.  The Company,  subsequently,
has entered in  negotiations  with several  other  companies  to possibly  joint
venture or vend the property.

For the  period  between  December  1997 and March  1998 the  Company  completed
environmental  impact studies,  both independent and internal,  on the Ryan Lode
property. The results of which determined the potential  environmental liability
of the property to be excessive.  The Company terminated its option with LaTeko.
Since then the  Company  has  re-focussed  its  efforts in the Nolan  area.  The
Company also plans to continue exploration of its Hammond,  St.Paul,  Grant, and
O'Dea  properties.  The extent of activity will be dependent on funding results.
In addition to production  results,  the Company plans to raise capital  through
private placements and warrant issues.

On  August 4,  1989,  Silverado  assigned  its Eagle  Creek  Property  to Can-Ex
Resources (U.S.), Inc. ("Can-Ex") for a 15% net profits interest to a maximum of
$5,000,000.  On February  19,  1997,  Can-Ex was  dissolved  and the Eagle Creek
property became the property of its parent corporation,  Kintana Resources Ltd.,
a company  controlled  by Garry  Anselmo  who is  president  and a  director  of
Silverado.  The Company's royalty interest in the property remains unaffected by
this event.  There has been no development  activity on the property  during the
year.

In  Canada,  the  Company  intends  to keep its  French  Peak  Property  in good
standing, though no development work is scheduled there at this time.

From time to time as conditions or funds  warrant,  the Company may  re-evaluate
its  development  programs in response  to  changing  economic or  environmental
conditions.  Such  re-evaluation  may result in the Company either  changing its
development  priorities or allowing  certain  properties or portions  thereof to
lapse.


(d) MINING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION

Mining  activities in the U.S. are subject to regulation  and  inspection by the
Mining  Safety and Health  Administration  of the United  States  Department  of
Labor.  In addition,  the  Company's  activities  are  regulated by a variety of
Federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations relating to protection
of the  environment  and other  matters.  Many  agencies  have the  authority to
require the Company to cease or curtail  operations  due to  noncompliance  with
laws  administered  by those agencies.  The operation of mining  properties also
requires a variety of permits from government agencies.

Management  believes that it has in place or will be able to obtain as necessary
all of the required  permits for the Company's  planned  operations.  Management
knows of no areas of noncompliance with laws or regulations which could close or
curtail operations.

The Company has accrued a total of $196,000 for further reclamation on the Nolan
Gold  Project and Grant Mine site on Ester  Dome.  Additional  remediation  work
takes place during the normal course of mining.

In the event of closure or abandonment of its facilities,  the Company estimates
that any additional reclamation costs, net of recovery, would be immaterial.

(e) NATURE OF CLAIMS UNDER FEDERAL AND STATE LAW

The Company's  properties  consist of unpatented Federal mining claims and State
mining   claims.   Titles  to   unpatented   claims  are   subject  to  inherent
uncertainties,  such as whether there has been a discovery of valuable  minerals
on each claim and whether  proper  locating and filing  prerequisites  have been
met.  Title  can  only be  maintained  by the  performance  of  adequate  annual
assessment  work and / or the  payment  of  prescribed  rental  fees.  While the
Company  believes  that all claims which it holds were  properly  located  under
applicable law, no assurances can be given in that regard.  To date, the Company
believes that it has conducted and recorded all annual assessment work necessary
to maintain the claims in good standing.  Changes to U.S.  mining laws currently
under  consideration  would,  if  enacted,  substantially  affect all holders of
unpatented Federal mining claims by imposing royalty fees on removal of minerals
and  fundamentally  changing the rights and status of unpatented  claim holders.
Although  management  believes that the  imposition of royalty fees as described
above,  at a minimal  level,  would not have a  material  adverse  effect on the
Company, it is impossible to predict the extent to which mining or environmental
legislation may be enacted or amended nor the effect that such legislation could
have on the Company.

the Nolan Gold Project.


ITEM 2 PROPERTIES
-----------------

(a) REGISTRANT'S INTEREST

Silverado holds  interests in mineral  properties in the State of Alaska and the
Province  of  British  Columbia.   The  Company  has  not  conducted  sufficient
exploration  and development  work to delineate  material proven or probable ore
reserves.

(b) GENERAL CHARACTER AND TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION OF EACH PROPERTY

(1) Ester Dome Gold Project

The Ester Dome Project  encompasses  all of Silverado's  optioned  properties on
Ester Dome, which is accessible by road 10 miles northwest of Fairbanks, Alaska.
The specific properties at this site are as follows:

(a) Grant Mine:

     This property  consists of 19 state mineral  claims  subject to payments of
     15% of net  profits  until  $2,000,000  has been paid and 3% of net profits
     thereafter  In  December  of  1997,  for the  purpose  of  facilitating  an
     agreement with Placer Dome U.S. Inc. and in  consideration  of a payment by
     the Company of $20,000,  the  conditional  purchase and sale  agreement was
     amended to reduce the  royalty  payments to 3% of net profits as defined in
     the agreement.

(b) Range Minerals #1:

     This property consists of 6 State mineral claims subject to payments of 15%
     of net  profits  until  $1,500,000  has  been  paid  and 2% of net  profits
     thereafter.

(c) Range Minerals #2:

     This property  consists of 419 State mineral  claims and one Federal claims
     subject to annual  payments of $50,000,  2% of net  smelter  returns  until
     $20,000,000 has been paid, and 5% of net profits thereafter. In December of
     1997,  for the purpose of  facilitating  an agreement with Placer Dome U.S.
     Inc.,  and in  consideration  of a payment by the Company of $60,000,  this
     option  agreement  was amended to extend the term of the  agreement  for an
     additional  period of ten years and to modify the royalty  provisions to 5%
     of net profits as defined in the agreement during the first five years that
     profits are first generated from  operations,  and the greater of 5% of net
     profits or 3% of net smelter returns as defined in the agreement until such
     time as the option price of the property has been paid in full.

(d) May (St. Paul) / Barelka:

     This gold property  consists of 22 State mineral claims subject to payments
     of 15% of net profits until  $2,000,000  (inflation  indexed from 1979) has
     been paid and 3% of net profits thereafter.

(e) Dobb's:

     This property  consists of one unpatented  Federal  mineral claims and four
     State  mineral  claimes  subject to payments  of 15% of net  profits  until
     $1,500,000 has been paid and 3% of the net profits thereafter.

The above  properties,  totaling  24 square  miles in area,  cover most of Ester
Dome. The stream drainages from Ester Dome have yielded approximately  3,000,000
ounces of gold,  95% of which was placer  gold.  This was  produced  mostly from
operations  conducted by Alaska Gold Company prior to 1965. The Company's claims
were  located to acquire  lode  sources from which this placer gold was derived.
Lode  gold has been  discovered  in veins,  shears,  and  disseminated  into the
country rock at a number of locations on the Company's properties.

The main thrust of Silverado's  exploration and  development  work on Ester Dome
from 1978 to 1989 was on the Grant Mine area,  including a Joint Venture  (Grant
Mine  Project)  initiated in April 1984  between  Silverado  and Aurex,  Inc., a
subsidiary  of  Marubeni  America  Corporation,  and a period of  production  by
Silverado  from 1987 to 1989.  The Joint  Venture,  with Tri-Con  Mining Inc. as
operator,  explored and  developed  the O'Dea vein and  constructed  a gravity /
carbon-in-pulp  mill.  From 1978 to 1989,  a total of  111,852  tons of ore were
processed, yielding 11,215 ounces of gold and 8,231 ounces of silver.

From  June,  1990 to  November,  1993 ACNC  conducted  exploration  programs  as
operator of the Ester Dome Joint Venture,  including 45,162 feet of drilling. On
the O'Dea Shear,  results from drilling by ACNC and prior results of Silverado's
work were sufficient for ACNC to define a gold ore resource.

During 1996 and 1997 the Company  continued  definition of the St. Paul ore zone
by completing over 10,000 feet of trenching and ninety-one  drill holes totaling
over 19,200 feet.  Further,  the Company conducted a drilling program consisting
of 38  holes  totaling  approximately  9,000  feet as part of its  due-diligence
investigation of the Ryan Lode property.

(2) Marshall Dome Property

The Marshall  Dome Gold  Project,  consists of 38 State  claims,35 of which were
acquired by the  Company in 1995 due to its  proximity  and  similar  geological
setting to Newmont Mining  Company's "True North" gold property,  immediately to
the southwest.  The remaining three adjacent claims were located and acquired by
the Company prior to 1995. The project covers an area of two and one-half square
miles,  and is located  eighteen miles northeast of Fairbanks and is on the same
geological  trend as the "True  North" gold  deposit one mile to the  southwest,
which is being developed by Newmont Exploration Limited.

(3) Whiskey Gulch Property

This  property,  acquired by the Company in 1996, is one-half mile  southwest of
the Marshall Dome Property and adjoins the "True North" property.

(4) Chatanika Property

This  property  was newly  staked by the  Company in 1996 in  response to aerial
observations  and  preliminary  geochemical  sampling.  The  property is located
approximately  20 miles  northwest of Fairbanks,  and presently  consists of 752
mining claims and 16 prospecting sites, with a total area of 52 square miles. On
November 30, 1998, the Company chose to defer its interest in this property.

(5) Nolan Gold Project

The Nolan Project consists of five contiguous properties covering  approximately
6 square  miles,  8 miles west of  Wiseman,  and 175 miles  north of  Fairbanks,
Alaska. These properties are as follows:

(a) Nolan Placer:

     This property consists of 160 unpatented  Federal placer claims 100 percent
     owned by Silverado.

(b) Thompson's Pup:

     This  property  consists of 6  unpatented  Federal  placer  claims,  and is
     subject to a royalty of 3 percent of net profits on 80% of production.

(c) Dionne (Mary's Bench):

     This  property,  consisting  of 15  unpatented  Federal  placer  claims and
     miscellaneous  mining  equipment,  was  purchased  in 1993  for  $1,000,000
     payable over five years. Payments were completed in 1997.

(d) Smith Creek:

     This  property,  consisting  of 35  unpatented  Federal  placer  claims and
     miscellaneous mining equipment,  was purchased in 1993 for $200,000 payable
     over five years with payments scheduled to be completed in 1999.

(e) Nolan Lode:

     This property  consists of 239  unpatented  Federal lode claims 100 percent
     owned by Silverado.  The lode claims overlie much of the placer  properties
     and extend beyond them.

Production  of placer  gold from  Nolan  Creek  and its  tributaries  originally
commenced in 1903.  Silverado began acquiring  claims in the area and developing
the placer gold deposits in 1979. Through 1988,  Silverado and a lessee produced
2,400 ounces of gold nuggets. Due to the angular nature and attachment to quartz
of much of the placer gold recovered,  Silverado believes the lode source should
be nearby and has staked lode claims to cover the potential source areas.  These
claims are in an active exploration stage, and quartz veins containing gold have
been discovered in place.

From 1990 to 1993, Silverado conducted reclamation,  exploration and development
in preparation for commencement of production. Initially, production was carried
out on the  Thompson's  Pup  property.  Then,  in  November  1993,  the  Company
commenced production on the Dionne (Mary's Bench) Property. Gold bearing gravels
were mined by underground methods from a frozen bench deposit.  Since the Winter
of 1994/95  almost 14,000 ounces of gold have been  recovered by Silverado  from
these sites, primarily in the form of high-quality nuggets which sell at premium
prices.  From 1995 to 1997, the Company restricted its activities at Nolan as it
refocused  its  resources  on its Ester Dome  properties.  During the time,  the
Company  substantially  reclaimed its previous  disturbances.  During 1998,  the
Company re-commenced mining operations.  The Company concentrated its activities
on the Archibald Creek area, located within Nolan Placer.  Limited mining on the
Sweede Channel located within Dionne was also undertaken. The Company's share of
total gold recovered from the Nolan Gold Project in 1998 amounted to 144 ounces.

(6) Hammond Property

The Hammond Property, consisting of 28 Federal placer claims and 36 Federal lode
claims  covering one and one-half  square miles,  was acquired by the Company in
December 1994. The Company completed a drilling program in 1995 which identified
placer gold deposits  similar to those on the adjoining Nolan Gold Project.  The
lode claims also  extended  the area of interest  for  exploration  for the lode
sources of the placer gold.

(7) Eagle Creek Royalty Interest

The Eagle Creek  Property  consists of 77 State mineral claims with a total area
of 4.8 square miles,  located 11 miles north of Fairbanks,  Alaska. The property
was  formerly a producer of  antimony  and is situated in a 20 mile long belt of
lode  and  placer  gold  deposits.  It is  currently  being  explored  as a gold
prospect.

Silverado  acquired the property in 1976.  From 1984 to 1988 Silverado  explored
several  geochemical / geophysical targets and discovered gold bearing veins and
disseminated gold mineralization of economic interest.

The property was assigned to Can-Ex Resources (U.S.), Inc. on August 4, 1989 for
a retained 15 percent  net  profits  interest  from  production  to a maximum of
$5,000,000.  On February 19, 1997,  Can-Ex  Resources (U.S.) Inc. was dissolved,
and the Eagle Creek  property,  became the  property of its parent  corporation,
Kintana  Resources  Ltd,  a  company  controlled  by Garry  Anselmo,  who is the
President  and director of  Silverado.  The  Company's  interest in the property
remains unaffected by this event.

(8) French Peak Property

The French Peak property consists of four mineral claims totaling  approximately
one square mile, located 40 miles northwest of Smithers, British Columbia.

The known  mineralization  consists of silver,  gold, copper, lead and zinc in a
number of vein and bedded deposits.  From one of these veins, a test shipment of
52.4 tons of  hand-sorted  ore was sent to a smelter and averaged 204 oz. silver
per ton.

Silverado  acquired the property in 1976 and has conducted surface  exploration,
including  diamond drilling,  to expand the known extent of the  mineralization.
Several  geochemical / geophysical  targets remain to be tested. The property is
in an advanced exploration stage.

(c) GLOSSARY OF TECHNICAL TERMS

Anomaly. 
-------- 
A concentration of an element or a physical feature which may indicate
the presence of a mineral deposit.

Development.
------------
The process  following  exploration,  whereby a mineral deposit is
further  evaluated  and  prepared  for  production.   This  generally   involves
significant drilling and may include underground work.

Drilling.
---------
The  process  of  boring  a hole in the rock to  obtain a sample  for
determination of metal content.  "Diamond Drilling" involves the use of a hollow
bit with diamonds on the cutting surface to recover a cylindrical  core of rock.
"Reverse Circulation  Drilling" involves chips of rock being forced back through
the center of the drill pipe using air or water.

Exploration.
------------
The process of using prospecting,  geological mapping, geochemical
and  geophysical  surveys,  drilling,  sampling  and other  means to detect  and
perform initial evaluations of mineral deposits.

Federal Lode  Claims,  Federal  Placer  Claims.
-----------------------------------------------
Mineral claims up to 20 acres, located on federal land under the U.S. Mining Law
of 1872. See below for definitions of "Lode" and "Placer".

Geochemical Survey. 
--------------------
Sample of soil, rock, silt, water or vegetation  analyzed to detect the presence
of valuable metals or other metals which may accompany them.  E.g.,  Arsenic may
indicate the presence of gold.

associated with mineral deposits.

Gold Deposit.
-------------
A concentration of gold in rock sufficient to be of economic interest.

Gravity /  Carbon-in-Pulp  Mill. 
---------------------------------
A gold  processing  plant  wherein gold ore is finely ground and the coarse gold

ITEM 3 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
------------------------

On March 14, 1997, the Company filed a Quiet Title Action in the Alaska Superior
Court,  Fourth  Judicial  District,  in order to assure  its clear  title to the
Marshall Dome  property.  On June 18, 1997,  the vendors of the property filed a
counterclaim  opposing the Company's  action. In the course of their opposition,
the vendors demanded that the Company encumber the property with a lien or other
equitable  relief  in  their  favor  for the  remaining  purchase  price  of the
property,  and  stated a claim  for  alleged  damages.  Silverado  believed  the
complaint was without merit, and moved for Summary Judgment on the basis that it
has  exclusive  possessory  rights to the  property as evidenced by the purchase
documents executed by the vendors. During 1998, the case was tried in the Alaska
Superior  Court.  The court found in favour of Silverado  and denied the vendors
any monetary compensation, other than $18,400 attorneys fees.

Other  litigation:  A former employee of the Tri-Con Group has initiated a claim
against that company for wrongful  dismissal/breach of contract in the amount of
$150,000. The Company has been named as a co-defendant in the suit. No provision
for this litigation has been made in these  financial  statements and the amount
of the loss, if any, for this lawsuit, would be accounted for prospectively.


ITEM 4   SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
----------------------------------------------------------

No matter was submitted  during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year covered by
this report to a vote of security holders through the solicitation of proxies or
otherwise.

On May 25, 1998, the Company  consolidated  its shares on a 1 for 10 basis which
gave rise to the variation in the stock price during May. The  foregoing  prices
represent  inter-dealer   quotations  without  retail  markups,   markdowns,  or
commissions and do not necessarily represent actual transactions.


(b) HOLDERS OF COMMON SHARES

As at  February  28,  1999 there were 3,659  registered  holders of  Silverado's
common shares, approximately 91% of whom were located in the United States.

(c) DIVIDENDS AND INTEREST

Silverado Gold Mines Ltd. has not declared  dividends on its common stock in the
two most recent fiscal years.

Silverado is  restricted in its ability to pay  dividends by  limitations  under
British Columbia law relating to the sufficiency of profits from which dividends
may be paid. In addition,  Silverado's Articles (the equivalent of the Bylaws of
a United States  corporation)  provide that no dividend  shall be paid otherwise
than out of funds or assets properly  available for the payment of dividends and
declaration by the directors as to the amount of such funds or assets  available
for dividends shall be conclusive.

The Canadian  Income Tax Act (the "Tax Act") provides in subsection  212(2) that
dividends and other  distributions  deemed to be dividends  paid or deemed to be
paid by a Canadian resident company to a non-resident person shall be subject to
a  non-resident  withholding  tax of 25  percent  on  the  gross  amount  of the
dividend.  Subject to certain  exceptions,  paragraph  212(1)(b)  of the Tax Act
similarly  imposes a 25 percent  withholding tax on the gross amount of interest
paid by a Canadian resident to a non-resident person.

Subsection  115  (1)  and  Subsection  2 (3)  of  the  Tax  Act  provide  that a
non-resident  person is  subject  to tax at the rates  generally  applicable  to
persons  resident  in  Canada  on any  "Taxable  capital  gain"  arising  on the
disposition  of shares of a  corporation  that is listed on a  prescribed  stock
exchange (which includes OTC bullentin board) if:

(i)  such  non-resident,  together  with  persons  with whom he does not deal at
     arm's length,  has held 25% or more of the outstanding  shares of any class
     of stock of the  corporation  at any time  during the five years  preceding
     such disposition; or

(ii) the shares  disposed  of were used by such  non-resident  in  carrying on a
     business in Canada.

A taxable capital gain is presently equal to three quarters of a capital gain.

Provisions in the Tax Act relating to dividend and interest payments by Canadian
residents  to  persons  resident  in the United  States are  subject to the 1980
Canada - United States Income Tax Convention (the "1980 Convention").  Article X
of the 1980 Convention provides that the rate of non resident withholding tax on
dividends  shall not exceed 5 percent of the gross amount of the dividends where
the  non-resident  person  who is  the  beneficial  owner  of  the  shares  is a
corporation  which  owns  at  least  10  percent  of  the  voting  stock  of the
corporation  paying  the  dividend.  In other  cases,  the rate of  non-resident
withholding tax shall not exceed 15 percent.

Article  XI of the  1980  Convention  provides  that  the  rate of  non-resident
withholding  tax on interest shall not generally  exceed 10 percent of the gross
amount of the interest.

The reduced rates of non-resident withholding relating to dividends and interest
provided  by the 1980  Convention  do not  apply  if the  recipient  carries  on
business  or  provides   independent   personal  services  through  a  permanent
establishment  situated  in  Canada,  and  the  shareholding  or debt  claim  is
effectively  connected  with that  permanent  establishment.  In that case,  the
dividends  and  interest  as the case may be,  are  subject  to tax at the rates
generally applicable to persons resident in Canada.

Article XIII of the 1980  Convention  provides  that gains  realized by a United
States resident on the sale of shares such as those of Silverado may be taxed in
both  Canada and the United  States.  However,  taxes paid in Canada by a United
States resident would, subject to certain  limitations,  be eligible for foreign
tax credit  treatment in the United  States,  thereby  minimizing the element of
double taxation.

Except as described above, there are no government laws, decrees, regulations or
treaties  that  materially  restrict the export or import of capital,  including
foreign  exchange  controls,  or  which  impose  taxes,   including  withholding
provisions, to which United States shareholders are subject.

During 1998 the Company  continued to receive funds through  private  placements
and the  exercise  of  options,  and  applied  those  funds to  exploration  and
development expenses its Nolan properties.  The Company also received funding of
$718,977 through the sale of excess equipment.  Placer Dome contributed $400,000
as part of the option  agreement  entered  into during the year.  On November 9,
1998, PDUS exercised its option to terminate the agreement with the Company. The
increase in the  Company's  working  from  $234,838 to  $2,860,089  reflects the
excess of those various expenditures over the funds received during 1998 and the
maturity of the  $2,000,000  convertible  debenture in July 1999.  The Company's
short term liabilities consist primarily of trade payables, accrued interest and
reclamation expenses.

During the year the Company received a total cash inflow of $1,857,737 primarily
from shares issued for cash, the sale of fixed assets for cash, the sale of gold
and the  receipt  of cash  from  Placer  Dome  under  the  now  canceled  option
agreement.  From these funds, the Company applied  $1,172,889 to exploration and
development  expenditures,  and  $107,200  to mineral  claims and options on its
mineral  properties;  $588,284 on the Nolan Gold Project,  $337,373 on the Ester
Dome Project,  $227,449 on the Ryan Lode Gold Project,  and $126,983 was applied
to its other properties.

     Ester Dome Gold Project
     -----------------------

     During 1998, the Company limited its activities on this property as efforts
     were  concentrated  on the Ryan Lode Gold  Project in the early part of the
     year and the Nolan Gold Project in the latter part of the year.

     However,  Placer  Dome  U.S.  Inc.(PDUS)  was  actively  involved  on  this
     property.  Under  the  agreement,  PDUS  was to  earn a 51.5%  interest  by
     performing a minimum of  $10,000,000 of work on the property and purchasing
     $5,450,000 common shares of the Company over a period of five years. During
     1998, the Company received  $400,000 in cash and PDUS performed  $1,000,000
     of work on the  property.  The work  consisted  of  integrated  surface and
     drilling programs employing mechanized soil sampling and trenching, as well
     as both reverse  circulation  and core drilling.  Active field  exploration
     took place  continuously from March through October.  Placer Dome U.S. Inc.
     succeeded  in   indentifying   four  prospects   containing   greater  than
     0.03gm/tonne over significant trench and drill thickness: the Silver Dollar
     and Ready  Bullion on the south side of Ester Dome and Rhyolite and McQueen
     on the north side of Ester Dome.  Placer Dome U.S. Inc. also  generated one
     new  prospect on the Irad claim.  Activities  included  1,385 soil  samples
     taken,  12  trenches  totalling  975 feet,  10  reverse  circulation  holes
     measuring 2,600 feet and 21 core drilling holes measuring 9,780 feet.

     On November 9, 1998,  PDUS  exercised its option to terminate the agreement
     with the Company.

     Ryan Lode Gold Project
     ----------------------

     In July, 1997, the Company began an environmental, technical, and legal due
     diligence  investigation of the Ryan Lode property preparatory to acquiring
     an option on the property from La Teko  Resources Ltd. La Teko had reported
     a significant  mineable reserve based on a bulk tonnage / heap leach mining
     concept,  at an average  grade of 0.056  ounces of gold per ton of ore. The
     Company  completed  38 drill  holes  totaling  8,855  feet to  confirm  the
     continuity of gold mineralization  above 0.10 ounces per ton to support the
     concept of a smaller  tonnage,  higher grade  operation  using  Silverado's
     existing  Grant  Mill  facilities.  The  Company  considered  the  drilling
     successful and,  entered into an Option to Purchase  Agreement with La Teko
     for the Ryan Lode property.

     In  March  of 1998 the  Company  complete  the  environmental  studies  and
     determined the potential  environmental liabiltiy to be excessive therefore
     the Company optioned to terminate the agreement.

     Nolan Gold Project
     ------------------

     In November,  1993,  the Company  commenced  production of placer gold from
     frozen bench  deposits on the Mary's Bench portion of the Dionne  Property.
     Since then,  almost 14,000 ounces of gold have been recovered.  The Company
     continued a limited  production  program in 1996 then suspended  production
     altogether  in 1997 as it focused  its efforts  entirely on the  expansion,
     exploration,  and  development  of its Fairbanks  properties in response to
     increased  competitive  activity  in that area.  It did,  however,  conduct
     reclamation activities on the site.

     During 1998,  limited mining of the Sweede Channel,  located within Dionne,
     was also under taken.  The Company's share of total gold recovered from the
     Nolan Gold Project in 1998  amounted to 144 ounces.  Continued  development
     and mining is being done  through the winter  months in this area and after
     the thaw in May-June  processing  will begin.  Two other  areas,  Archibald
     Creek and Smith Creek will be summer  mined and  processed  this year.  The
     extent of activities will be dependent on continually funding.

     Other Properties
     ----------------

     On November 30,1998, the Company relinquished its interest in the Chatanika
     Property.  The  Company  maintained  all of its  other  properties  in good
     standing.

During 1999, the Company has property  commitments  totaling $633,500 which must
be paid in order to keep its various properties in good standing. This amount is
made up of mineral property lease payments, various regulatory charges and fees,
and property work  requirements.  The Company also has interest  commitments  of
$160,000 on a $2,000,000 convertible debenture. The debenture matures and is due
and payable in July 1999.

Management  expects  that it will be able to raise  additional  capital  for its
activities  on its  properties  through  either  equity  or debt  financing,  or
additional joint-ventures, though there is no commitment by any party to provide
such  financing at this time,  nor assurance that such capital will be available
or that an additional  joint-venture can be negotiated on terms favorable to the
Company. In the event that sufficient funds do not become available to carry out
its planned operations, the Company may elect to reprioritize its operations and
sell or abandon certain properties as necessary to meet its cash requirements.

OPERATING RESULTS

The Company  continued to engage in only limited gold sales in 1998,  reflecting
its own reduced  inventory,  the limited  production  activities,  and the lower
prices for gold. The Company expects to maintain only minimal inventory until it
resumes production from its Nolan properties.

Operating costs in 1998 were higher than last year.  Included in operating costs
for the year are mining and processing costs, reclamation costs and amortization
of mineral property and development costs.

As with  most  companies  involved  in the  mining  industry,  the  price of the
Company's product (mainly gold) can have a significant  impact upon the Company.
The price of gold has  maintained  a range of $285 to $295 per ounce,  down from
the 1996 level of $400 per ounce.

Mining  activities in the United States are subject to regulation and inspection
by the Mining,  Safety and Health Administration of the United States Department
of Labor.  In addition,  Silverado's  activities  are  regulated by a variety of
Federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations relating to protection
of the environment.  The operation of mining  properties also requires a variety
of permits from governmental  agencies.  While there can be no assurance that in
the future environmental concerns will not lead to restrictions upon Silverado's
operations at one or more properties,  Silverado believes it has either obtained
all permits necessary for planned  operations in 1999, or that any other permits
necessary can be obtained without undue restriction

During 1998,  the Company  wrote off  $13,805,342  of deferred  exploration  and
development  expenditures and $334,963 of claims and options. From 1999 onwards,
the Company will expense  exploration  and development  costs as incurred.  As a
result of limited other expenses for the year decreased similarly.

AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS

We have audited the consolidated  balance sheets of Silverado Gold Mines Ltd. as
at November 30, 1998 and 1997 and the consolidated  statements of operations and
accumulated  deficit,  changes in share capital,  capital  surplus,  unamortized
stock compensation  expense and advances to related parties,  and cash flows for
each of the years ended  November  30, 1998,  1997,  and 1996.  These  financial
statements   are  the   responsibility   of  the   Company's   management.   Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
in Canada.  Those standards  require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain
reasonable  assurance  whether  the  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.

In our opinion,  these consolidated  financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the company as at November 30, 1998
and 1997 and the results of its  operations and the changes in its cash flow for
the years ended  November 30, 1998,  1997 and 1996 in accordance  with generally
accepted accounting  principles in the United States. As required by the Company
Act (British  Columbia) we report,  that in our opinion,  these  principles have
been applied on a consistent basis.

COMMENTS BY AUDITORS FOR U.S. READERS ON CANADA-U.S. REPORTING DIFFERENCE

In the United States,  reporting  standards for auditors require the addition of
an explanatory  paragraph  (following the opinion  paragraph) when the financial
statements are affected by conditions and events that cast substantial  doubt on
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, such as those described in
Note 1(a) to the  financial  statements.  Our report to the  shareholders  dated
March  16,  1999 , is  expressed  in  accordance  with  the  Canadian  reporting
standards  which do not permit a reference to such events and  conditions in the
auditors'   report  when  these  are  adequately   disclosed  in  the  financial
statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(EXPRESSED IN U.S. DOLLARS)
YEARS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 1998, 1997 AND 1996
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     These  consolidated  financial  statements for the years ended November 30,
     1998, 1997, and 1996 are prepared in conformity with accounting  principles
     generally accepted in the United States.

(a) Continuing Operations

     During the year ended November 30, 1998, the Company continued to focus its
     efforts on the Nolan  Properties.  It continued its drilling program on the
     Ryan Lode  project,  and funded its  exploration  activities  by generating
     $588,800 in capital through private  placements and the exercise of options
     and  warrants;  $718,977  from sale of  equipment,  and a  $400,000  option
     payment from Placer Dome Inc.

     At November  30,  1998,  the Company had a working  capital  deficiency  of
     $2,860,089  including a $2,000,000  convertible  debenture  which is due on
     July 2, 1999,  subject to prior  redemption or conversion.  The Company did
     not make a  required  interest  payment  of  $80,000  on June 30,  1998 and
     subsequent to year end did not make a required  interest payment of $80,000
     on December  31, 1998 (Note  10(a)).  The Company was granted a deferral of
     these  interest  payments  based on  semi-monthly  progress  updates  until
     financing is in place.

     These  financial  statements  have been prepared on a going concern  basis,
     which assumes the  realization of assets and  liquidation of liabilities in
     the normal course of business. The application of the going concern concept
     and the recovery of amounts recorded as mineral  properties and development
     is dependent on the Company's  ability to obtain the continued  forbearance
     of certain creditors, to obtain additional financing to fund its operations
     and acquisition,  exploration and development activities,  the discovery of
     economically  recoverable  ore on its  properties,  and the  attainment  of
     profitable  operations.  Current  uncertainty  with regard to each of these
     matters raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as
     a  going  concern,   and  the  financial  statements  do  not  include  any
     adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

     The Company plans to continue to raise capital through  private  placements
     and warrant  issues.  The Company also plans to complete a property  option
     agreement for the Ester Dome Gold Project and other properties.  Production
     is set to begin after the winter thaw in May-June  and the Company  expects
     gold sales to supplement financing activities.

(b) Basis of Consolidation

     The  consolidated  financial  statements  include the accounts of Silverado
     Gold Mines Inc., a wholly owned  subsidiary.  All significant  intercompany
     accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

(c) Gold Inventory

     Gold  Inventory  is  valued  at the  lower  of  weighted  average  cost and
     estimated net realizable  value.  At November 30, 1998, 1997 and 1996, gold
     inventory is valued at net realizable value. Any write-down of inventory to
     net realizable value is included in mining and processing costs.

(d) Mineral Properties and Development

     The Company  confines its  exploration  activities to areas from which gold
     has previously been produced or to properties  which are contiguous to such
     areas  and  have  demonstrated  mineralization.  Accordingly,  the  Company
     capitalizes  the costs of acquiring  mineral  claims and options until such
     time as the  properties  are placed into  production or abandoned.  At that
     time, costs are amortized or written off.

     During  fiscal 1998,  the Company has written off all deferred  exploration
     and development expenditures for all of its properties.  Effective December
     1, 1998,  exploration  and  development  expenditures  will be  expensed as
     incurred.

     Effective  December 1, 1996, the Company adopted the Statement of Financial
     Accounting Standards No. 121 ("FAS 121"), "Accounting for the Impairment of
     Long-Lived  Assets to be  Disposed  Of." On an ongoing  basis,  the Company
     evaluates  each  property  based  on  exploration   results  to  date,  and
     considering facts and circumstances such as operating  results,  cash flows
     and material changes in the business climate, determines whether any of the
     properties  may be impaired.  The carrying  value of a long-lived  asset is
     considered  impaired when the anticipated  undiscounted cash flow from such
     asset is separately  identifiable  and is less than its carrying  value. In
     that event, a loss is recognized  based on the amount by which the carrying
     value exceeds the fair market value of the  long-lived  asset.  Fair market
     value  is  determined  primarily  using  the  anticipated  cash  flows on a
     discounted rate commensurate  with the risk involved.  Losses on long-lived
     assets to be disposed of are  determined in a similar  manner,  except that
     fair market  values are reduced  for the cost to dispose.  The  adoption of
     
<PAGE>                                                                       F-7
                                                                            
     this  accounting  standard did not have a material  effect on the Company's
     consolidated operating results or financial position.

     The amounts shown for claims and options for mineral  properties which have
     not yet commenced  commercial  production represent costs incurred to date,
     net of recoveries from  developmental  production,  and are not intended to
     reflect present or future values.

     Amortization of claims and options  relating to properties in production is
     provided during periods of production using the units-of-production  method
     based on an estimated economic life of the ore reserves.

     The Company's  accounting  policy for reclamation  expenses is contained in
     note 9(d).

(e) Buildings, Plant and Equipment

     Buildings, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided
     on buildings,  plant and equipment using the straight-line  method based on
     estimated lives of 3 to 20 years.

(f) Foreign Currencies

     The Company considers its functional currency to be the U.S. dollar for its
     U.S. and Canadian operations.  Monetary assets and liabilities  denominated
     in  foreign  currencies  are  translated  into  U.S.  funds at the rates of
     exchange in effect at the year end.  Revenue and expense  transactions  are
     translated at the rate in effect at the time at which the transactions took
     place.  Foreign exchange gains and losses are included in the determination
     of income.

(g) Loss Per Share

     Loss per share has been calculated  based on the weighted average number of
     shares  outstanding  during the year.  During fiscal 1998, the  outstanding
     share capital of the Company was  consolidated on a 1:10 basis.  The effect
     of the share consolidation was given retroactive recognition in all periods
     presented.  The  weighted  average  number of shares  outstanding,  for the
     purpose of loss per share calculations, is as follows:

     Year to November 30, 1998  8,942,186
     Year to November 30, 1997  6,699,956
     Year to November 30, 1996  4,912,029

     Loss per share does not include the effect of the potential  conversions of
     options, warrants, and debentures as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

(h) Revenue Recognition

     Gold sales are recognized when the title passes to the purchaser.

(i) Accounting for Stock Based Compensation

     The Company uses the intrinsic value based method of accounting  prescribed
     by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued
     to  Employees"  ("APB  Opinion No. 25") in  accounting  for its stock based
     method, compensation cost is the excess, if any, of the quoted market price
     of the stock at grant date over the amount an employee or director must pay
     to acquire  the stock.  The  Company's  accounting  policy for stock  based
     incentive plans to contract employees and consultants is contained in Notes
     6(d).

(j) Use of Estimates

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
     accepted  accounting  principles  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.  Significant  areas  requiring  the  use of
     management  estimates relate to the amortization and depreciation  rates of
     mineral  properties and  development  and  buildings,  plant and equipment,
     accrued  remediation  expense and the  recoverability  of capital and other
     assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(k) Financial Instruments

     The  carrying  amounts  reported  in the balance  sheet for cash,  accounts
     receivable,  accounts  payable and  accrued  liabilities  approximate  fair
     values due to the short-term  maturity of these  instruments.  The carrying
     amounts  reported in the balance  sheet for capital lease  obligations  and
     convertible  debenture  approximate  their fair  market  value as they bear
     interest at rates which approximate market rates.

2. MINERAL PROPERTIES AND DEVELOPMENT

(a) Mineral Properties

     Ester Dome Properties, Fairbanks Mining District, Alaska
     ---------------------------------------------------------
     These  properties,which  include the Grant Mine (Burggraf),  Range Minerals
     #1, Range Minerals #2 May/Barelka (St. Paul), and Dobb's  properties,  make
     up a contiguous  group of claims  covering 24 square  miles.  The Company's
     property  holdings in this area were  expanded by the  acquisition  of five
     additional claims in October 1997, known as the "Alaska Gold" property.  On
     February 6, 1998 the Company  entered into an agreement with Placer Dome US
     Inc.  ("PDUS") which provided for PDUS to explore and develop the Company's
     May/Barelka  and  Range  Minerals  properties  on  Ester  Dome.  Under  the
     agreement,  PDUS was to earn a 51.5%  interest by  performing  a minimum of
     $10,000,000 of work on the property and purchasing $5,450,000 common shares
     of the Company over a period of five years. During fiscal 1998, the Company
     received  $400,000  in cash and PDUS  performed  $1,000,000  of work on the
     property.  On November 9, 1998,  PDUS exercised its option to terminate the
     agreement with the Company.

     Ryan Lode Property, Fairbanks Mining District, Alaska
     -----------------------------------------------------
     On December 19, 1997,  the Company  entered into an Option  Agreement  with
     LaTeko Resources Ltd. ("LaTeko") granting Silverado the exclusive right and
     option to acquire 100% of the Ryan Lode property, which is situated next to
     the Company's Ester Dome properties  near  Fairbanks,  Alaska,  for a total
     purchase price of $12,000,000.  The Company issued  1,000,000 of its common
     shares to LaTeko as  consideration  for  granting  the right and  option to
     acquire the mineral property.  In March of 1998, the Company terminated its
     option to purchase the property. Costs of $227,449 were incurred during the
     year on the Ryan Lode  property.  All  previously  deferred costs have been
     written off during the year.

     Marshall Dome Property, Fairbanks Mining District, Alaska
     ---------------------------------------------------------------
     The Company  acquired  this  property in 1995. It covers an area of two and
     one-half  square  miles,   and  is  located  eighteen  miles  northeast  of
     Fairbanks.

     Whiskey Gulch Property, Fairbanks Mining District, Alaska
     ---------------------------------------------------------------
     The Company acquired four claims  collectively  known as "Whiskey Gulch" in
     1996. These claims are located near the Company's Marshall Dome property.

     Chatanika Property, Fairbanks Mining District, Alaska 
     --------------------------------------------------------------
     The Company  originally  staked this  property in 1996.  It consists of 752
     mining claims and 16 prospecting sites covering an area of approximately 52
     square  miles,  located 20 miles  northwest of  Fairbanks.  On November 30,
     1998, the Company chose to relinquish its interest in this property.  Total
     current costs of $124,361 were written off.

     Nolan Properties, Wiseman Mining District, Alaska
     --------------------------------------------------
     These properties,  which include the Nolan Placer,  Nolan Lode,  Thompson's
     Pup,  Dionne  (Mary's  Bench),  and  Smith  Creek  Properties,  make  up  a
     contiguous group of claims, covering approximately four square miles.

     Hammond Property, Wiseman Mining District, Alaska 
     --------------------------------------------------
     The Company  acquired  this two square mile  property,  adjoining the Nolan
     Gold Properties, in 1994.

     Eagle Creek Property, Fairbanks Mining District, Alaska 
     --------------------------------------------------------------
     The Company assigned its interest and obligations  related to this property
     to Can-Ex Resources (U.S.), Inc. ("Can-Ex"), a related party and retained a
     15% net profit  interest from  production to a maximum value of $5,000,000.
     Can-Ex was  dissolved in 1997 at which time its assets passed to its parent
     company Kintana Resources Ltd., a related party (see Note 7), which now has
     the obligation for Silverado's net profit interest.

     French Peak Property, Omineca Mining District, British Columbia
     -------------------------------------------------------------------
     Anselmo Holdings,  a related company has 10 percent net profits interest in
     this property, which consists of four mineral claims covering approximately
     one square mile located 40 miles northwest of Smithers, British Columbia.

     Property Commitments
     --------------------
     As at  November  30,  1998,  minimum  aggregate  future  cash  expenditures
     required in the next five years to maintain the properties in good standing
     are as follows:
<PAGE>                                                                       F-9

     The Company's mineral property  commitment for fiscal 1999 include $342,000
     relating to the year ended November 30, 1998, that remains unpaid. This has
     been  recorded as a liability  at year end. The  Company's  failure to make
     these payments has not adversely affected its rights over the properties.

5. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE

     In July 1994,  the Company  issued a convertible  callable  debenture  with
     interest  payable at the rate of 8.0% per annum on  December 31 and June 30
     each year.  The debenture is unsecured and is due July 2, 1999,  subject to
     prior redemption or conversion.  The debenture may be converted in whole or
     in part by the holder  into common  shares of the  Company at a  conversion
     price of $18.57  U.S.  per share (the  "Conversion  Price").  In  addition,
     conversion of the debenture may be called by the company  provided that the
     average  trading price of the  Company's  common stock has exceeded 125% of
     the  Conversion  Price for the period of twenty  consecutive  trading days.
     Financing  fees paid related to the  debenture  have been  deferred and are
     being  amortized  on a straight  line basis over the  debenture  term of 60
     months.  The  Company  did not make  required  payments  of $80,000 on June
     30,1998 and  subsequent  to year end on December 31, 1998.  The Company was
     granted a deferral  of these  payments  based on monthly  progress  updates
     until financing is in place.  Total interest  payable at November 30, 1998,
     amounting to $146,666 has been recorded as a current liability.

6. SHARE CAPITAL

     75,000,000  common shares without par value into  80,769,230  common shares

     The effect of the 1:10 consolidation  during 1998 and the 14:13 share split
     during  fiscal  1997 has been  retroactively  applied to all share  capital
     balances disclosed in this note.

(b) Director's Options

     Directors  options for 48,461  common shares  originally  granted in May of
     1992,  exercisable at Cdn. $3.44 per share and which were to expire June 1,
     1997,  were  extended  during the 1997 fiscal  year to June 1, 2002.  These
     options were outstanding at November 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996.

     In addition, the following director and employee options to purchase common
     shares were granted in accordance with the provisions of the Company's 1994
     Stock Option Plans.  These options are exercisable until August 14, 2004 at
     the exercise prices stated below,  being the market price of the underlying
     shares at the date of grant of the options.



     Grant Date            Granted   Exercised  Outstanding   Price
     ----------            -------   ---------  -----------   ------
     December 12, 1994     118,462                  118,462   $ 8.17

     December 12, 1997      10,000                   10,000   $ 2.80

     The  Company  accounts  for stock  compensation  arising  from  options  to
     directors  in  accordance  with APB No. 25.  Under both option  plans,  the
     exercise  price  of the  options  is  equal  to  the  market  price  of the
     underlying  shares  on the  date of  grant  of the  options.  Therefore  no
     compensation  cost arises when the options are granted.  If, at the time of
     any alteration to the terms of an option, the market price of the Company's
     shares  exceeds the  exercise  price of the option at that date,  then this
     excess is  credited  to share  capital  and  expensed  over the term of the
     service period.

     Had the compensation cost for these directors options been determined based
     on fair  value at the grant  dates,  consistent  with the  requirements  of
     Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock
     Based Compensation", the Company's net loss and loss per share

     During fiscal 1998, the Company  issued 10,000  options to directors.  Each
     option is  exercisable  at $2.80 and  entitles  the holder to  acquire  one
     common share of the Company.

(c) Warrants

     In conjunction with the private  placement of common shares the Company has
     issued and has  outstanding  at November  30,  1998,  the  following  share
     purchase  warrants.  Eash share  purchase  warrant  entitles  the holder to
     acquire one common share of the Company.

(d) Contract Employee Options

     From time to time,  the Company  issues  options for the purchase of common
     shares  to  selected  part  time  independent  contract  employees  as sole
     compensation for contracted services. The options are exercisable either at
     the date the options are granted,  or in  increments  over the terms of the
     employment contracts.

     The Company accounts for stock  compensation  arising from these options in
     accordance with Statement of Financial  Standards No. 123,  "Accounting for
     Stock Based Compensation". Under this statement, stock compensation cost to
     contract  employees is measured at the grant date of the stock option based
     on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period.

     The following  contract  employee  stock  options were granted,  exercised,
     canceled and expired  during the years ended  November 30, 1996,  1997, and

     The estimated  weighted  average fair value of options  granted  during the
     year was prepared  assuming a risk-free rate of 6% (1997:  6%), an expected
     volatility of 57% (1997:  57%), an expected dividend yield of 0% (1997: 0%)
     and a weighted average life of 3 months (1997: 3 months).  The estimate was

     secured by that portion of the 2,119,834 common shares of the Company owned
     by Tri-Con  which is  sufficient  to fully  amortize the advance  given the
     trading price of the stock.

     During  fiscal 1998,  the Tri-Con  Group sold all of the  2,119,934  common
     shares  held in the  Company  for net  proceeds  of  $225,448.  The Company
     received  $225,448  from the Tri-Con  Group as part payment of the $480,236
     advance  receivable at November 30, 1997.  The remaining  unpaid amount was
     reclassified during the year to prepaid expenses.

     In 1989, the Company  assigned its interest in and  obligations  related to
     the Eagle Creek property to Can-Ex Resources (U.S.),  Inc., a subsidiary of
     Kintana Resources Ltd., for a net profit interest from production of 15% to
     a maximum of $5,000,000  U.S. In 1997,  Can-Ex was  dissolved,  and at that
     time  the  net-profits  obligation  was  assumed  by  its  parent,  Kintana
     Resources Ltd.

     Anselmo Holdings Ltd. has a right to 10 percent of net profits derived from
     the French Peak Property.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

(a) Office Lease

     On January 20, 1994, the Company  entered into a lease agreement for office
     premises  for a  term  of 10  years  commencing  April  1,  1994,  with  an
     approximate annual rental of $120,000 (Cdn) including operating costs.

     During 1994 and 1995 the Company  entered  into  capital  leases for mining
     equipment with the following future minimum lease payments:

                                                  1998          1997

     payments due.

(c) Severance Agreements with Directors

     The  Company  has  entered  into  compensation  agreements  with the  three
     directors of the Company. The agreements provide for severance arrangements
     where a change of  control  of the  Company  occurs,  as  defined,  and the
     directors  are  terminated.  The  compensation  payable  to  the  directors
     aggregates $4,200,000 (1997:  $4,200,000) plus the amount of annual bonuses
     and other  benefits  that they would have  received in the eighteen  months
     following termination.

(d) Reclamation

     The Company's  operations  are affected by Federal,  state,  provincial and
     local laws and regulations regarding environmental protection.  The Company
     estimates the cost of reclamation  based primarily upon  environmental  and
     regulatory  requirements.  These costs are accrued annually and the accrued
     liability is reduced as reclamation  expenditures are made.  Details of the
     Company's accrued liability at November 30, 1998 and 1997 are as follows:



                                                    1998          1997

(e) Litigation

     A former  employee of the Tri-Con  Group has initiated a claim against that
     company  for  wrongful  dismissal/breach  of  contract  in  the  amount  of
     $150,000.  The Company  has been named as a  co-defendant  in the suit.  No
     provision for this litigation has been made in these  financial  statements
     and the amount of the loss,  if any, for this  lawsuit,  would be accounted
     for prospectively.

(f) Uncertainty due to the Year 2000 Issue

     The Year 2000 Issue arises because many computerized systems use two digits
     rather than four to identify a year.  Date-sensitive  systems may recognize
     the  year  2000 as 1900  or some  other  date,  resulting  in  errors  when
     information  using the year 2000 dates is processed.  In addition,  similar
     problems  may  arise in some  systems  which use  certain  dates in 1999 to
     represent  something  other than a date.  The effect of the Year 2000 Issue
     may be  experienced  before,  on, or after  January  1, 2000,  and,  if not
     addressed,  the impact on operations and financial reporting may range from
     minor errors to significant  systems failure which could affect an entity's
     ability to conduct  normal  business  operations.  It is not possible to be
     certain  that all  aspects of the Year 2000 Issue  affecting  the  Company,
     including  those  related to the efforts of  customers,  suppliers or other
     third parties, will be fully resolved.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     (a) On December 23, 1998,  the Company  issued  866,667  units at $0.15 per
     unit by way of a  non-brokered  placement  for gross  proceeds of $130,000.
     Each unit consists of one common share and one share purchase warrant. Each
     share purchase warrant entitles the holder to acquire an additional  common
     share at an exercise price of $0.20 for a two year period.

     (b) On December  31,  1998,  the  Company did not make a required  interest
     payment of $80,000 on the Convertible  Debenture  issued in July 1994 (Note
     9(5)).  The  Company  was  granted a deferral  of this  repayment,  and the
     $80,000  unpaid  interest  that was due on June  30,1998  (Note 5) based on
     monthly progress updates until financing is in place.
