expectations, results of current exploration activities, accidents, delays in
start-up dates, environmental costs and risks, changes in gold prices, as well

NAPTAU GOLD CORPORATION

                          Notes to Financial Statements

1. The Company and basis of presentation:

      Naptau Gold Corporation (the "Company") was formed under the laws of the
State of Delaware on January 8, 1988 and was inactive until 1995 when it entered
into an agreement to acquire certain mineral properties. (note 3). The Company's
principal business activity is the exploration and development of mineral
properties, with its principal mineral properties comprising of various placer
leases in the Cariboo Mining Division of British Columbia, Canada (the "Placer
Leases").

      The financial statements presented herein as of June 30, 1998 and for the
three and six month periods ending June 30, 1998 and 1997 are unaudited and, in
the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal
and recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of financial
position and results of operations. Such financial statements do not include all
of the information and footnote disclosures normally included in audited
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. The results of operations for the three and six months period ended
June 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
for the full year ended December 31, 1998. It is suggested that these financial
statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.

      These financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting
principles applicable to a going concern.

NAPTAU GOLD CORPORATION

Item 2. Plan of Operation

      The Company is engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of
mineral properties, primarily gold properties. The Company's properties are
comprised of five adjacent placer mining leases and two adjacent staked placer
claims (collectively, the "Properties") located in the Cariboo Mining District,
British Columbia, Canada.

      It is estimated that the Company and prior owners of the Properties have
expended an aggregate of approximately $4,000,000 in exploring and developing
the Properties. Because of the inconsistency of placer golds, none of the
Company's Properties may be defined as containing proven or probable reserves.
Although prior exploration programs have produced in excess of 300 ounces of
gold from the Properties, the Company has not generated meaningful revenues and
will not generate revenues until commencement of full-scale placer mining
operations.

      In May 1997 the Company moved a new $250,000 production plant on site with
the expectation of processing 150,000 to 200,000 cubic yards of material over
the 5 to 6 month 1997 mining season. This represented an average operating level
of 50% of the capacity of the plant. This conservative estimate was based on the
assumption that shakedown time would be required during start-up of production
and the necessity of processing marginal pay gravels while opening the main
channel deposits. Production did not commence during the 1997 mining season,
however, due to the failure of the manufacturer of the production plant to
deliver a turnkey plant. The Company spent the 1997 season and approximately
$100,000 bringing the plant to operating status. Concurrently with the
preparation of the production plant, the Company carried on further site
preparation in anticipation of an upcoming season of production.

      At the commencement of the 1998 mining season the Company completed the
tasks necessary to commence production, which included the stripping and hauling
of surface materials and the heavy blue clay which overlies the channel
deposits. The materials expected, rich black/brown gravels, grey/green gravels
and boulders are now exposed at the upper portion of the channel pocket. The
edges of the first placer pocket were exposed with the pocket appearing to be 75
feet(25 meters) wide and, per the previous Seismic Refraction Surveys, Induced
Polarization Survey and past drilling, will drop off sharply to a depth of some
135 feet(45 meters) of which 90 feet(30 meters) extends below the level of
Keithley Creek.

      In May and June 1998 the Company successfully initiated test runs of the
production plant using materials from the upper edges of the pocket yielding
small flat and rice sizes of gold. As this material was extracted 18 feet (6
meters) above the actual drop into the placer pocket it is very encouraging. The
Company anticipates that it will continue to process materials through the
balance of the 1998 mining season.

      The Company intends to stop processing materials and shut-down the mining
operation for winter at the end of September 1998 with the exception, weather
permitting, of a stripping crew which will remain active preparing the site for
the following spring start-up.

      The Company currently anticipates that it will process approximately
100,000 cubic yards of material over the balance of the 1998 mining season.

      At June 30, 1998, the Company had a working capital deficit of
approximately $2,591,000, a substantial portion of which is owed to Noble,
$2,038,343, and officers and directors of the Company, all of whom have a vested
interest in ensuring the Company's continued existence. During the first six
months of 1998 the Company's operating expenses consisted primarily of amounts
accrued in respect of officer salaries and professional fees. The Company's
continuing operations and ability to realize the amounts shown as mineral
properties on its balance sheet are dependent upon the Company's ability to
obtain the financing necessary to meet its obligations and continue its
exploration and development activities. To date, substantially all of the
financing for the Company's mining activities has been provided by Noble. There
is no assurance that Noble will continue to fund the Company or that necessary
financing will be made available by third parties or, if made available, be on
terms acceptable to the Company.
