ITEM 1:  BUSINESS

Description of Business

Original Sixteen to One Mine, Inc. (the Company) mines gold on properties
it owns or on which it has claims, in and around the town of Alleghany in
the California Gold Country, about 65 miles northeast of the intersection
of I-80 and California State Route 49.

The Company's primary operation is the Sixteen to One mine from which more
than 1,106,762 troy ounces of gold have been retrieved since the mine
commenced operation in 1896.  The Company began doing business in its
present form in 1911 and has operated continuously ever since.  Unlike the
common image of California '49ers panning for gold, the Company's
operation is a hard rock underground mine in which the Company sinks
diagonal shafts ("winzes") from which the miners create horizontal levels
at various elevations.  The Company"s activities are presently focused on
the 800 foot level and 1700 foot level.  When the miners are tunneling,
they average about 5 linear feet of progress per day.  Periodically, the
miners drift outward on quartz veins.  Gold is not distributed evenly
within the quartz veins; however, within the Company's mine,
concentrations of gold deposits are found within these quartz veins.
Because the gold appears intermittently, the Company makes no claim of
reserves.

The Company's operations are characterized by significant amounts of
preparation, tunneling, mine maintenance and upgrading, all of which are
necessary to permit the location and extraction of the gold.  The Company
from time to time focuses substantially all of its resources on
infrastructure development and maintenance, and during those periods,
little gold is mined.  At other times, the Company's miners are primarily
searching for gold.  Accordingly, the Company's business is subject to two
very different cycles, one dependent on whether the Company is directing
its resources towards infrastructure or towards mining and the other as a
function of the productivity of current mining operation.  In 1999
(February), the Company significantly altered its mining operation.  The
scope of mining activities was reduced with emphasis placed on short term
underground headings most likely to yield immediate gold.  In 1998 and
1997, the Company devoted substantial resources toward mining for gold.
In 1996, the Company channeled substantial resources to the maintenance of
the mine and development of infrastructure; in 1995 and 1994, the Company
had also devoted substantial resources to sinking a new winze and
developing new levels to permit the exploration of additional areas of the
mine.  Mining is classically a "boom or bust" activity, and the Company's
operations fit that description.

The Company uses existing metal detection technology which enables miners
to detect gold approximately 20 to 30 inches in from the tunnel wall, and
the Company frequently works with other companies to develop new
technologies potentially permitting non-invasive exploration substantially
further within the rock wall.  The Company makes its mine available to
third parties for the purposes of researching and developing new detection
technology.  These arrangements allow the Company to benefit from research
activities without incurring the costs usually associated with research
and development.

The Company continues to explore the possibilities of advanced metal
detection, a new technology.  If new technology works as preliminary tests
within the Company's mine indicate, the Company's operating results would
be favorably affected.  However, there can be no assurances that the new
technology will work as expected.

For accounting purposes, gold revenues are accrued when the metal has been
mined and recovered.  However, for tax purposes, revenues are not
recognized until the gold has been sold.  Although most of the Company's
gold is sold as refined bullion, the Company has additional value-added
ways to sell its gold.  The Company markets rare high-grade gold and
quartz specimens at a premium to museums, collectors and jewelry
manufacturers, and it also manufactures its own jewelry and sells its own
proprietary mine bars.

The Company has no extraordinary working capital requirements, and the
Company is not dependent on any particular customer or few customers, as
commodity gold has multiple markets and gold jewelry is sold to a rather
diversified customer base.  The Company has no backlog of orders, but
rather sells gold from its inventory.  The Company does not believe that
it operates in a materially competitive context; the Company's operating
results generally reflect the efficiency and timeliness with which it
locates gold.

The raw materials and equipment used for mining are commonly available,
and the Company has generally been able to satisfy its labor requirements.
The Company believes that within the Sixteen to One mine there is a
substantial number of attractive exploration opportunities.

In 1994, following a long-standing practice of acquiring former productive
mines, the Company purchased the Brown Bear mine in Trinity County,
California.  The mine site is 540 timbered and patented acres and has
yielded 500,000 troy ounces of gold to its past owners.  The mine is
underground yet no excavation exists below the tunnel entrance (adit)
level.  During the 1980's the property was extensively core drilled by
Santa Fe Mineral.  The Company believes that within the Brown Bear mine a
substantial number of attractive exploration opportunities exist.  When
funding is available for exploration and development, the Company will
pursue the potential within this property.  In 1999, the Company acquired
the Plumbago mine in the Alleghany Mining District.  The mine includes a
20 acre patented claim and mineral rights to eight patented and 16
unpatented claims.  The mine has a history of rich ore production.  The
Company will pursue the potential within this property when funding
becomes available for exploration and development.  However, there can be
no assurances that such funding will be available to the Company in the
foreseeable future.

There is no particular seasonality to the marketing of gold (other than
the Company's gold jewelry sales for which some modest bias toward the
fourth quarter is noted), and the Company's business is not otherwise
seasonal except for the generally modest effect of winter storms on the
ability of the Company's miners to come to work.

Management believes that the Company is in substantial compliance with all
applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the
discharge of materials into the environment.  The Company does not
presently anticipate any material estimated capital expenditures for
environmental control facilities, either for the remainder of its current
fiscal year or for the succeeding fiscal year.

The Company is a California corporation formed October 11, 1911.  At
December 31, 2000, it had 17 full-time employees plus one permanent part-
time employee.  The Company's executive office is located at 527 Miners
Street, Alleghany, California 95910.  The Company's phone number is
(530)287-3223.  The Internet address is: www.origsix.com.

Risk Factors

(a) Price of Gold

The price of gold has been flat (with a few periodic exceptions) over the
past two years, probably reflecting diminished inflationary expectations
and activities of the international banking institutions.  Any significant
drop in the price of gold may have a material adverse effect on the
results of the Company's operations unless the Company is able to offset
such a price drop by substantially increased production or jewelry sales.

(b) Lack of Proven Reserves

As noted above, the Company is unable to predict if, where or when gold
will be found and mined.  While (i) the Company has recovered over 40,760
troy ounces of gold since January 1992 and (ii) management believes that
substantial additional unrecovered gold exists in the Sixteen to One mine,
the Company has no ability to measure or prove its reserves and thus may
be unable to obtain additional debt or equity financing when needed.

(c)  Governmental Regulation

All mining operations are subject to substantial governmental regulation
at every level related both to mining safety and to environmental
protection.  Compliance with these regulations may cause significant
delays in the operation of the Company as well as substantial capital and
operating expenses.  While the Company believes it is currently operating
in compliance with all known safety and environmental standards and
regulations, there can be no assurance that it is in such compliance or
that future changes in the laws, regulations or interpretations thereof
will not have a material adverse effect on the results of the Company's
operations.

(d)  Labor Pool

The Company believes it has been fortunate in attracting and retaining
talented and dedicated miners.  While there can be no assurance that the
Company will continue to have available the services of an appropriate
underground mining force, mine closures and recent labor reductions of
miners in the Western United States have increased current applications
for employment.

(e)  Liquidity

The Company's gold inventory at December 31, 2000 was $704,522 (carried at
the spot price for gold on that date).  Much of that inventory is in the
form of specimens or gold held for jewelry.  While actual cash sales
support that the inventory value exceed the spot price, no vale added
amounts are used to compute the inventory.  The Company believes the
difference in the recorded vale and the actual cash value is a significant
factor in determining its asset vale; however, recommended accounting
principles do not allow for acknowledgement of increased "potential
value".  The Company may experience periodic shortfalls in liquidity which
are not likely to be bridged by institutional debt financing.  Management
will address these issues from time to time as they arise, which may
involve the sale at commodity prices of gold held for specimen or jewelry
sale.  All inventory of raw material is recorded at spot price per troy
ounce.  In addition, contract manufacturing costs of jewelry are included
in the finished jewelry inventory.

(f)  Dependence on Key Personnel

The Company is substantially dependent upon the continued services of
Michael Miller, its President.  The Company has no employment agreement
with Mr. Miller, nor is there either key person life insurance or
disability insurance on Mr. Miller.  Accordingly, there can be no
assurance that Mr. Miller's services will remain available to the Company.
If Mr. Miller's services are not available to the Company, the Company
will be materially and adversely affected.  However, Mr. Miller has been a
shareholder of the Company since 1975 and considers his investment of time
and money in the Company represents a significant personal value and
commitment.  Furthermore, he resides in Alleghany and has additional
interest in the community.  It is extremely unlikely and has expressed no
interest that he will resign his position with the Company.

(g) Cautionary Statement for Purposes of the "Safe Harbor" Provisions of
    the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

From time to time the Original Sixteen to One Mine, Inc. (the Company),
will make written and oral forward-looking statements about matters that
involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially from projected results.  Important factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially include, among others:

+ Fluctuations in the market prices of gold.
+ General domestic and international economic and political conditions.
+ Unexpected geological conditions or rock stability conditions resulting
  in cave-ins, flooding, rock-bursts or rock slides.
+ Difficulties associated with managing complex operations in remote
  areas.
+ Unanticipated milling and other processing problems.
+ The speculative nature of mineral exploration.
+ Environmental risks.
+ Changes in laws and government regulations, including those relating to
  taxes and the environment.
+ The availability and timing of receipt of necessary governmental permits
  and approval relating to operations, expansion of operations, and
  financing of operations.
+ Fluctuations in interest rates and other adverse financial market
  conditions.
+ Other unanticipated difficulties in obtaining necessary financing.
+ The failure of equipment or processes to operate in accordance with
  specifications or expectations.
+ Labor relations.
+ Accidents.
+ Unusual weather or operating conditions.
+ Force majeure events.
+ Other risk factors described from time to time in the Original Sixteen
  to One Mine, Inc., filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Many of these factors are beyond the Company's ability to control or
predict.  Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward
looking statements.  The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to
update its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of receiving
new information, the occurrence of future events or otherwise.

A more detailed discussion of the foregoing factors is included in this
report.


ITEM 2:  PROPERTIES

Properties

The Company's Sixteen to One mine was acquired in 1911, and additional
properties were acquired prior to 1925; all of these properties have been
carried on the Company's books at their original purchase price and have
been fully amortized through depletion.  The Company has acquired
additional mining properties for $405,517, but no depletion has been
applied to those properties.

In 1991, the Company purchased a 200 ton per day mill, which it upgraded
in 1996 after a fire damaged the facility.  The Company believes that it
has all necessary permits and licenses to conduct a mining and milling
business.  The Company's Original Sixteen to One Mine, located in the town
of Alleghany, California, is accessed by a road maintained by the Company.
The mouth of the mine is approximately one-half mile from a county road.

The Company's Alleghany properties consist of 25 patented claims (452
acres).  An additional 69 claims are subject to subsurface access but with
paramount title held by the Bureau of Land Management of the Department of
the Interior).  In 1994, the Company purchased the Brown Bear Mine in the
French Gulch Mining District, consisting of 34 patented claims (540
acres), 22 unpatented claims (440 acres), plus 160 acres of mineral rights
on patented claims.  The following table sets forth further information
with respect to the Company's mining claims.

Governmental Regulation

Mining is generally subject to regulation by state regulatory authorities.
In most states, the production of gold is regulated by conservation laws
and regulations.  State and federal statutes regulate environmental
quality, safety, exploration procedures, reclamation, employees health and
safety, use of explosives, air quality standards, pollution of stream and
fresh water sources, noxious odors, noise, dust, and other environmental
protection controls as well as the rights of adjoining property owners.
While laws may change preventing or delaying the commencement or
continuance of given operations, no material expenditures for
environmental control facilities are foreseen in the near future.

In 1999, the Company became aware of a change in the administration of
regulation by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA), a federal
agency under the Department of Labor.  The change in administration by
MSHA has significantly and substantially increased the demands of federal
regulation which has had a negative impact the operation, production and
therefore revenue of the mine.  The Company disagrees with the position of
the MSHA agency and has taken a position to challenge the agency's
reasonableness.

ITEM 6:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                             RESULTS OF OPERATION

Management's discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the Company's audited Financial Statements including the Notes thereto
included in this Form 10-KSB.

Balance Sheet Comparisons of 2000 with 1999

The Company's increase in current assets of $461,905 (131.82%) was
significantly attributed to gold production totaling 2,262 fine troy
ounces.

The increase in fixed assets resulted from the lease/purchase of a
compressor and related equipment, plus acquisitions of mining equipment
from the sell-off of property of the closure of an unrelated nearby mine.

From revenues generated from gold production and timber harvest of the
Brown Bear Property in Trinity County and the Alleghany Properties in
Sierra County, the Company was able to reduce its current liabilities by
$225,311 (54.25%).  The reduction of $48,398 (88.87%) due to related
parties was attributed to the issuance of (1) shares of common stock as
compensation to Directors for fees and expenses and (2) shares of common
stock and gold ore issued to the Company's President as compensation for a
six-month salary deferral in 1999 and accrued wages in 2000.  (Note:
Specifics are detailed in Note 4, Notes to Financial Statements.)

As of December 31, 2000, notes payable due after one year of $68,760,
increased $36,551 of a lease purchase obligation for equipment.  The
remaining increase is due to reclassification of notes payable due within
one year in 1999 to notes payable due after one year in 2000.

Statement of Operations

(a) Comparison of 2000 with 1999

During 1999, the majority of the Company's labor was through contractual
agreement; therefore, direct comparison to 2000 cannot be made.  The
overall increase in labor (for comparison purposes, salaries and wages and
contract labor have been combined) of $51,611 (8.57%) was due to
adjustment in wages of management personnel on the sufficient employment
of mining personnel to maintain an efficient work force.  At December 31,
2000, the Company employed 17 full time employees and one permanent part-
time employee. Two employees were receiving worker's compensation at year
end.  Telephone and utilities expense had a slight increase due to higher
utility rates.  Due to a re-assessment of taxes by the county assessor,
property taxes reflected a decrease over the prior year.  Insurance
expense increased $25.322 (21.91 due to higher insurance rates.  The
increase of $28.625 (62.26%) in supplies expense was attributed to the
Company's increase in mining activity.  Interest expense decreased $48.754
(57.90%) due to the Company's ability to pay down interest related debts.

Due to increased operating levels and supplemental timber revenues, the
Company's operating losses decreased from $(300,784), ($.08/share), in
1999 to a net income of $576,856 ($.14/share) in 2000.

(b) Comparison of 1999 with 1998

On February 12, 1999, the Company significantly altered its mining
operation.  Forty employees were terminated.  Fourteen returned as
independent contractors.  Compensation was based upon a percentage of the
gold mined and sold.  On July 1, 1999, eight former employees remained as
independent contractors.  The scope of mining activities was reduced with
emphasis placed on short-term underground headings most likely to yield
immediate gold.  Effective October 2, 1999, a crew of 13 was re-hired and
on the Company's payroll.

Mining to produce gold ceased on August 29, 1999, due to a mine closure
order imposed by the Mining Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) based
on a contested citation regarding the second exit.  Subsequently, a plan
of operation was proposed to negate the closure by developing a new raise
between the 1700 foot level and the 1500 foot level north of the Tightner
Shaft moving the direction of work to the northern part of the mine.

It is difficult to evaluate line by line changes in the financial
statements due to the significant changes in operations over the reporting
periods.  Gold (dore), specimen and jewelry revenues decreased
dramatically due to the diminished production of the mining operation as
fewer miners worked underground.  The decrease in total revenues for the
year-end December 31, 1999 compared to year-end December 31, 1998 was not
as pronounced due to supplemental timber harvest revenues during the
latter part of the year.

Wages affected by the change in operation were due to (1) fewer employees
and (2) reclassification into the contract labor category.  Consumables,
such as supplies, drayage and utilities, decreased because of the
reduction in mining and the type of mining conducted commencing on
February 12, 1999.

Interest expense increased $52,257 (163.56%) from $31,951 at December 31,
1998 to $84,208 at December 1999, due to accumulated interest on notes
payable to related parties.  The notes and interest were paid-in-full to
the related parties in 1999.

Due to reduced operating levels and supplemental timber revenues, the
Company's operating losses decreased from $666,909 ($.19/share) in 1998 to
$300,784 ($.08/share) in 1999.



Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's liquidity (i.e., its ability to generate adequate amounts of
cash to meet its needs for cash) is substantially dependent upon the
results of its operations.  While the Company does maintain a gold
inventory which it can liquidate from time to time to satisfy its working
capital needs, there can be no assurance that such inventory will be
adequate to sustain operations if the Company's gold mining activities are
not successful.  Because of the unpredictable nature of the gold mining
business, the Company cannot provide any assurance with respect to long-
term liquidity.  In addition, if the Company's mining operation does not
produce meaningful additions to inventory, the Company may determine it is
necessary to satisfy its working capital needs by selling gold in bullion
form.

The Company is dependent on continued recovery of gold and sales of gold
from inventory to meet its cash needs.  Although the Company has
historically located an average of $1 million of gold over a five year
period, there can be no assurance that the Company's efforts in any
particular period will provide sufficient funding for the Company to
continue operations.

If the Company's cash resources are inadequate and its gold inventory is
depleted, the Company may seek debt or equity financing on the most
reasonable terms available.

                        INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

The Board of Directors
Original Sixteen to One Mine, Inc.

     We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Original Sixteen to
One Mine, Inc. as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related
statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 2000.  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.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audits to obtain reasonable assurance about 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.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.

     In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Original
Sixteen to One Mine, Inc. at December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results
of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 2000 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business

Original Sixteen to One Mine, Inc. (the "Company"), a California
corporation, was incorporated in 1911 and is actively involved in
operating gold mines in Alleghany, California.


Inventory

Inventory consists of gold bullion, specimens and jewelry recorded at the
quoted market price for gold bullion.  In addition, contract manufacturing
costs of jewelry are included in the finished jewelry inventory.  Gold
bullion held in the Company's name by the smelter is accounted for using
the FIFO method.   All other gold inventory is accounted for using the
specific identification method.  The Company stores approximately 120
fifty-five gallon barrels of sulfides, a mining byproduct containing gold
particles on its property.  The sulfides are excluded from the Company's
inventory due to significant uncertainties related to estimating the gold
content and the related recovery costs.


Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are stated at historical cost.  Depreciation is calculated
using straight-line and accelerated methods over the following estimated
useful lives:

               Vehicles              3 to 5 years
               Equipment             5 to 7 years
               Buildings         18 to 31.5 years


Depletion Policy

Because of the geological formation in the Alleghany Mining District,
estimates of ore reserves currently cannot be calculated, and accordingly,
a cost per unit depletion factor cannot be determined.  Should estimates
of ore reserves become available, the units of production method of
depletion will be used.  Until such time, no depletion deduction will be
recorded (see Note 2).


Timber Revenue

For 2000 and 1999, mining operations were supplemented by harvesting
timber on property owned by the Company.  The Company's timber reserves
are not recorded because management has not determined an estimated value.
Accordingly, timber revenues are recorded, net of expense, at the date of
harvest.  The Company has an approved timber harvest plan valid through
the year 2001, which can be extended upon request for an additional two
years.


Mine Rehabilitation

The costs of mine rehabilitation are expensed as incurred.


Development Costs

In February, 1994, the Company began development of a new winze into
unexplored ground.  Costs associated with the development have been
capitalized.  Development was complete at December 31, 1996.  Based upon
previous mine experience, management estimates that gold production from
the new winze will approximate 50,000 troy ounces.  Accordingly,
capitalized development costs are being amortized using the units of
production method.  Amortization expense for the year ended December 31,
1998 totaled $17,876.  This area was not mined in 2000 and 1999, and
accordingly, the Company did not record amortization expense.


Other Assets

Other assets include payments for lease rights to certain mineral property
which are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of ten years.


Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax
consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement and
tax basis of existing assets and liabilities.  The principle items causing
these temporary differences are net operating loss carryovers, development
costs and tax recognition of gold sales.


Revenue Recognition

As they are mined, gold specimens are recorded in inventory and revenue is
recognized using quoted market prices for gold.  Gold production from ore
is recognized when the gold has been milled from the ore.  Changes in
quoted market prices subsequent to mining are charged or credited to
income for gold remaining in the Company's inventory at the date of the
price change.  Jewelry and gold specimen sales prices generally include a
premium over the quoted market price of gold.  Such premiums are
recognized at the date of sale.


Earnings per Share

Basic EPS, which excludes dilution, is computed by dividing income
available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential
dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common
stock, such as stock options, result in the issuance of common stock which
shares in the earnings of the Company. The treasury stock method has been
applied to determine the dilutive effect of stock options in computing
diluted EPS.


Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions.  These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts
of 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 these estimates.


Stock-Based Compensation

Stock options are accounted for under the intrinsic value method
prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees".  Accordingly, compensation cost for stock
options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of
the Company"s stock at the date of grant over the exercise price.
However, if the fair value of stock-based compensation computed under a
fair value based method, as prescribed in Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation",
is material to the financial statements, pro forma net income (loss) and
earnings (loss) per share are disclosed as if the fair value method have
been applied.


Restricted Common Stock

Shares of the Company's restricted common stock cannot be sold within two
years of the issuance date.  After the required holding period, the
shareholder can take steps to remove the indicated restriction.  At
December 31, 2000 and 1999, the Company's stock transfer agent indicated
1,120,288 and 509,267 shares are restricted.


Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year balances to conform
to classifications used in 2000.


2.  MINING PROPERTY

The original mining property is carried on the books at its March 1, 1913,
value of $379,000 as determined for depletion purposes in connection with
Federal income taxes.  The value, together with the cost of mining
properties acquired in 1920 and 1924 for the aggregated sum of $145,145
has been fully amortized through depletion charges.  In 1996 additional
costs totaling $76,574 were capitalized related to the legal defense of
certain mining claims.  Subsequent purchases of real estate and mineral
properties include the Brown Bear mine in 1994 for $300,000 and the
Plumbago mine in exchange for 50,000 restricted shares of the Company's
common stock (3,750 of those shares to be issued in 2001).


3.  NOTES PAYABLE TO RELATED PARTIES

Notes payable to related parties consisted of $300,000, 10% unsecured
notes, convertible to common stock at $1.75 per share, to Board members,
the President and shareholders.  The Company retired the notes by issuing
common stock to the note holders at $.75 per share.  Certain other
obligations to these individuals totaling $39,667 were also settled
through the issuance of common stock at $.75 per share (which approximated
the market price at the issuance date).


4.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In June 1999, the Company negotiated with a service provider to settle an
outstanding trade payable.  The service provider waived interest charges
and accepted 25,000 shares of restricted stock in return for a $25,000
reduction in the Company's obligation.  Subsequent to the completion of
the negotiated settlement, a principal owner of the service provider was
appointed to the Company's Board of Directors.  At December 31, 2000, the
remaining balance due of $2,310 is included in amounts due to related
parties.

In 1999, the Company's President accepted a six-month salary deferral for
$37,458, which was included in accrued compensation at December 31, 1999.
During 2000, an additional $5,243 of salary was accrued for a total of
$42,701.  The President accepted 50,000 shares of the Company's common
stock at a market value of $18,750 and gold ore valued at $16,919 based on
the spot price at the end of the business day.  The remaining balance due
of $7,032 is included in accrued compensation at December 31 2000.

In 2000, Directors received 30,592 shares of common stock for Directors'
fees.  Expenses totaling $22,945 was recognized in conjunction with the
awarding of these shares.  Additionally, a shareholder received 10,000
shares of the Company's common stock at a market value of $8,100 for
services.


5.  NOTES PAYABLE

                                            ===========


5.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Stock Options

In 1983 and 1996 the Board of Directors adopted, and the stockholders
ratified, Stock Option Plans for which 530,000 shares of common stock are
reserved for issuance to employees and directors under incentive and non-
qualified agreements.

The plans require that the price of all options may not be less than fair
market value of the stock at the date the option was granted, and that the
stock must be paid for in full at the time the option is exercised.  All
options expire on a date determined by the Board of Directors, but not
later than ten years from the date of grant.

In 2000, 15,000 non-qualified options were issued to directors.  The non-
qualified options vest ratably over a four year period beginning one year
from the grant date and expire ten years from the grant date.  The average
exercised price is $.94, which approximates the fair market value of the
stock on the date of issuance.

In 1999, 195,000 incentive and 15,000 non-qualified options were issued to
employees and directors.  The incentive options vest ratably over a five
year period beginning one year from the grant date and expire ten years
from the grant date.  The non-qualified options vest ratably over a four
year period beginning one year from the grant date and expire ten years
from the grant date.  The average exercise price is $.71, which
approximates the fair market value of the stock on the date of issuance.

The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of the Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS 123) "Accounting for Stock-
Based Compensation".  Accordingly, no compensation expense has been
recognized under its stock option plan.  Had compensation cost for the
plan been determined based on fair market value at grant date for awards
in 1998 consistent with the provisions of SFAS 123, the Company's net
income (loss) and income (loss) per share for the years ended December 31,
2000, 1999 and 1998 would have been reduced (increased) to the pro forma
amounts indicated below:

                                     2000         1999          1998
                                  ---------   -----------   ----------

Net income (loss) - as reported   $ 576,856   $ (300,784)   $ (666,909)
Net income (loss) - pro forma     $ 531,842   $ (332,533)   $ (695,575)

Basic and diluted income (loss)
   per share - as reported        $     .14   $     (.08)   $     (.19)
Basic and diluted income (loss)
   per share - pro forma          $     .13   $     (.09)   $     (.20)


The fair value of each option granted is estimated to be approximately
$.70 and $.30 in 2000 and 1999, respectively, using an option-pricing
model and the following assumptions:

                                                2000          1999
                                              --------      --------
  Dividend yield (not applicable)
  Expected volatility                              72%          101%
  Risk-free interest rate                           5%            5%
  Expected option life                        10 years      10 years

As discussed above, the options granted vest over four to five years.  The
pro forma effect on the 2000 and 1999 losses for options vesting in those
years is not material.

A summary of the activity within the plan follows:

                     2000               1999             1998

The Company has recorded a valuation allowance amounting to the entire
deferred tax asset balance.  The Company's deferred tax asset is primarily
attributable to net operating loss carryforward for tax reporting
purposes.  The lack of consistent earnings, the Company's financial
condition and potential limitations on the use of carryforwards give rise
to uncertainty as to whether the deferred tax asset is realizable.

A reconciliation of the income tax expense (benefit) per the U.S. Federal
statutory rate to the reported income tax expense follows:

8.  SAVINGS INCENTIVE MATCH PLAN

The Company's Savings Incentive Match Plan for Employees (SIMPLE) is
available to all employees who meet the Plan's eligibility requirements.
All contributions under the plan are fully vested and non-forfeitable.
The Company has the option to make matching or non-elective contributions
to the Plan.  For the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, the Company
contributed $7,000 and $5,000, respectively.


9.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The carrying amounts of financial instruments including cash, accounts
receivable accounts payable and accrued compensation, notes payable and
notes receivable from employees approximated fair value as of December 31
2000 and 1999, because of the relatively short maturity of these
instruments.  The carrying value of inventory is based upon quoted market
prices.


10.  EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share are calculated below by dividing the net loss by the
weighted average number of shares outstanding.  The weighted average
number of shares outstanding is determined by the relative portion of time
within each year that the shares have been outstanding to the whole year.

For the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, conversion of
outstanding stock options was not assumed because assumed conversion would
have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share.
