               NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note 1.   The  notes  to the  consolidated  financial  statements as  of
          December 31, 1996, as set forth in ConSil Corp.'s (the Company
          or  ConSil) 1996  Annual  Report on  Form 10-K,  substantially
          apply to  these interim consolidated financial  statements and
          are not repeated here.  All amounts are in U.S. dollars unless
          otherwise indicated.

Note 2.   The financial information given in the  accompanying unaudited
          interim  financial statements  reflects all  adjustments which
          are,  in  the opinion  of  management,  necessary  to  a  fair
          statement  of the  results for  the interim  periods reported.
          All  such adjustments are of  a normal recurring  nature.  All
          financial statements presented herein are unaudited.  However,
          the  balance sheet as of  December 31, 1996,  was derived from
          the  audited consolidated  balance sheet  described in  Note 1
          above.  Certain consolidated  financial statement amounts have
          been reclassified to conform to the 1997 presentation.   These
          reclassifications  have   no  effect   on  the  net   loss  or
          accumulated deficit as previously reported.

Note 3.   The  components of the income  tax benefit for  the six months
          ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 are as follows (in thousands):

Note 4.   At  June 30,  1997, the  Company  had 9,449,757  common shares

          1996 and through the first quarter of 1997 of $57,364.  Actual
          exploration expense  for  the  first six  months  of  1997  in
          connection with  services performed by Minera  Hecla under the
          direction  of the  management  of Minera  ConSil was  $13,767;
          expenses for the first six months of 1996 were $141,687.

          Certain general and  administrative expenses  are incurred  by
          Hecla and reimbursed by  the Company.  These  expenses totaled
          $9,750  for the first six  months of 1997  compared to $14,131
          for the  first six months of  1996.  In addition,  the Company
          reimbursed  Hecla for  $9,369 of  exploration expenses  in the
          first six months of 1996.

          On  June  28,  1996, ConSil  and  Hecla  entered  into a  loan
          agreement whereby Hecla agreed  to make available to ConSil  a
          loan not to exceed $500,000, due in  its entirety on or before
          December 31, 1996.  On February 19, 1997 the Company and Hecla
          amended the Loan Agreement to increase the amount available to
          $700,000 with  a due  date of  April 30, 1997.   On April  16,
          1997, the Loan  Agreement - Second Amendment extended the date
          of  repayment  to  no  later  than August  1,  1997.    As  of
          July 25, 1997, $580,301  was payable  to Hecla under  the Loan
          Agreement.

Note 5.   The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements  in
          accordance  with  generally  accepted   accounting  principles
          ("GAAP")  in  the  United  States.    The  Company   also  has
          regulatory  reporting requirements  in Canada.   There  are no
          differences between  U.S. GAAP and Canadian  GAAP with respect
          to stockholders'  deficit or net loss at June 30, 1997 and the
          six  months   then   ended.     For  the   six  months   ended
          June 30, 1996,  income   would  be  reduced   by  $15,473  and
          stockholders' deficit by $114,473 under Canadian GAAP.

Note 6.   The  Company received a notice letter dated June 26, 1997 from
          the United States and the Coeur d'Alene Indian Tribe notifying
          the  Company that  it  may  be added  as  a  defendant in  the
          Coeur d'Alene River Basin  natural resource damage  litigation
          pending under the  Superfund law in Federal  District Court in
          Idaho.  Management believes that any claim which might be made
          against  ConSil will not have a material adverse effect on the
          operations and  financial condition of ConSil.  (Filed on Form
          8-K dated July 4, 1997.)

     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
     ---------------------------------------------------------------
     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     ---------------------

          INTRODUCTION
          ------------

          Except for  the historical  information contained herein,  the
          matters discussed that  are forward-looking statements involve
          risks and  uncertainties, including the timely  development of
          future projects, the impact  of metals prices, changing market
          conditions  and   regulatory  environment,  and   other  risks
          detailed from time to time in the Company's Form 10-K and Form
          10-Qs  filed with  the United  States Securities  and Exchange
          Commission.   Actual results may differ  materially from those
          projected or  implied.   Forward-looking  statements  included
          herein represent the Company's judgment as of the date of this
          filing.    The  Company  disclaims,  however,  any  intent  or
          obligation to update these forward-looking statements.

          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
          ---------------------

          FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 1997 COMPARED TO FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 1996
          ------------------------------------------------------------

          The  Company  reported a  net loss  of  $300,093 or  $0.03 per
          share, for the first six months of 1997 compared to a net loss
          of $270,975 ($0.03 per share) in the same period in 1996.  The
          increase in  the net loss is  due primarily to  an increase in
          general  and  administrative  expenses  of  $53,503,  interest
          expense of $26,651, and  a decrease in the income  tax benefit
          of  $75,485.    The  increase in  general  and  administrative
          expenses  is primarily  due  to increases  in  legal fees  and
          investor  relations expenses  associated  with  the  Company's
          reporting   requirements   to   securities    regulators   and
          stockholders.   Acquisition expenses relating to  the Minas La
          Colorada purchase  were $78,647  for the  first six months  of
          1997,  and none in the same  period of 1996.  Interest expense
          in the 1997 period relates to the note payable to Hecla  which
          was  not  outstanding  during  the  1996  period.    Partially
          offsetting  these  increases is  the reduction  in exploration
          expenses of  $210,800, due to a  non-recurring credit received
          from Minera Hecla in 1997 (see Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated
          Financial  Statements), and  general reduction  in exploration
          activities  in  order  to   complete  the  Minas  La  Colorada
          acquisition.

          THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS
          ---------------------------------------------------------
          ENDED JUNE 30, 1996
          -------------------

          The Company reported a net loss of $135,539 or $0.01 per share
          in  the second quarter of 1997,  comparable to the net loss of
          $137,944 ($0.01 per share) in the second quarter of 1996.  The
          components of each year's  net loss are primarily  general and
          administrative  expenses with a  reduction of  exploration and
          acquisition expense in  1997 of $49,318 offset by  an increase
          in  interest  expense ($14,443)  and  the lack  of  income tax
          benefits ($31,861 in 1996).

          FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
          ---------------------------------

          At June  30, 1997,  assets totaled $194,317  and stockholders'
          deficit totaled $750,770.  Cash and cash equivalents decreased
          by  $83,915 to  $36,301  at June  30,  1997 from  $120,216  at
          December 31, 1996.  Operating  activities used $62,784 of cash
          during the first six months of 1997.  The primary uses of cash
          for operating  activities were for administrative expenses and
          acquisition expenses.  

          Working capital decreased $296,887 during the first six months
          of 1997,  from a negative $518,962  at December 31, 1996  to a
          negative $815,849 at June  30, 1997.  The decrease  in working
          capital is  primarily the  result of funding  operating losses
          associated   with  general  and  administrative  expenses  and
          acquisition expenses.

          On July 22, 1996, the Company  entered into a Letter of Intent
          with  Minas La Colorada, S.A. de C.V. (MLC) which was replaced
          by  a Heads  of  Agreement dated  December  19, 1996  for  the
          acquisition  of a  100% interest  in the assets  of MLC.   The
          final  Master  Agreement was  signed  effective  June 2,  1997
          (Exhibit  P10.5.) Consideration  for the  proposed acquisition
          currently  includes  Hecla   Mining  Company,  the   Company's
          majority stockholder,  delivering from its  holdings 4,000,000
          shares of common stock of the Company to ConSil who will  then
          deliver  4,000,000   shares  of   its  common  stock   to  the
          stockholders of MLC.   ConSil will also assume  debt of up  to
          $3,000,000  under   the  proposed  agreement.    The  proposed
          acquisition  is  also  contingent  upon  ConSil completing  an
          equity  financing  sufficient  to  complete  the  acquisition,

          expand production at MLC's mines, and fund exploration  of the
          MLC properties.

          ConSil  renegotiated an  extension  on all  provisions of  the
          agreement with  Grupo Catorce on the  Sombrerete properties in
          Zacatecas,  Mexico, including  a  suspension  of all  required
          expenditures  and  payments to  Grupo  Catorce.   The  current
          extension expires August 31, 1997.

          Further exploration work, as  well as the proposed acquisition
          of  Minas  La  Colorada,  are contingent  upon  the  Company's
          ability  to obtain financing.   If other sources  of funds are
          unavailable,  Hecla  has  committed  to  fund  the  reasonable
          minimum  financial requirements  of the Company  through March
          31,  1998.    Existing  cash  and  cash  equivalents  are  not
          sufficient to fully fund  planned expenditures.  Management is
          currently  investigating  raising  additional  capital  via  a
          common or preferred  stock offering.   On April  21, 1997  the
          Company  retained IBK Capital Corp.  of Toronto to  act as its
          advisor in  the planned  equity offering.   Work is  currently
          underway  on obtaining  financing through an  equity offering.
          There can  be no assurance,  however, that the  planned equity
          offering will be successful.

          No. 128 (SFAS 128), "Earnings per Share" was issued.  SFAS 128
          establishes  standards for  computing and  presenting earnings
          per share (EPS)  and simplifies the existing  standards.  This
          standard  replaces  the presentation  of  primary  EPS with  a
          presentation  of  basic  EPS.    It  also  requires  the  dual
          presentation  of  basic and  diluted EPS  on  the face  of the
          income   statement  for  all  entities  with  complex  capital
          structures and requires a  reconciliation of the numerator and
          denominator of the basic EPS computation to the  numerator and
          denominator of  the  diluted EPS  computation.   SFAS  128  is
          effective for  financial statements issued for  periods ending
          after  December 15,   1997,  including  interim   periods  and
          requires restatement  of all prior-period EPS  data presented.
          The Company does not believe the application of this  standard
          will have a material effect on the presentation of its earning
          per share disclosures.

                              CONSIL CORP.


Item 1.   Legal Proceedings
------    -----------------

          There  are  no  pending  legal  proceedings;  however,  ConSil
          received  a notice letter dated June 26 from the United States
          and  the Coeur  d'Alene Indian Tribe  notifying ConSil  of the
          intent  to add  conSil,  along  with  other  companies,  as  a
          defendant in  the Coeur  d'Alene River Basin  natural resource
          damage litigation  pending under the Superfund  law in Federal
          District Court  in Idaho.   It is ConSil's  understanding that
          the letters were  issued to  many companies in  response to  a
          court-imposed  deadline and  before  factual review  has  been
          completed  to support any claim.  Notices are not lawsuits and
          ConSil may or may not be added to the case.  ConSil, which was
          formed   in   1968,   never   conducted  operations   on   its
          Coeur d'Alene  River Basin  properties itself  but  leased its
          properties  to  other  companies.  Those  lessees'  activities
          consisted primarily of exploration work and were undertaken at
          a time  when various environmental regulations  were in place.
          In addition,  these activities  involved no discharge  of mill
          tailings  into the Coeur d'Alene  River system which  is a key
          concern of the government and Tribe  in the lawsuit.  Based on
          those and other factors, it  is management's opinion that  any
          claim  which  might be  made against  ConSil  will not  have a
          material  adverse  effect  on  the  operations  and  financial
          conditions of ConSil.
