Independent Auditors Report



To the Shareholders of

Freegold Ventures Limited



We have audited the consolidated balance sheet of Freegold Ventures Limited(the Company) as at December 31, 2006 and the consolidated statements of loss and deficit and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.



We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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 December 31, 2006 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.



The consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2005 and 2004 were audited by predecessor auditors who expressed an opinion without reservation on those statements in each of their reports dated February 6, 2006 and January 28, 2005 respectively.

Comments by Auditor 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 8, 2007 is expressed in accordance with Canadian reporting standards which do not permit reference to such events and conditions in the auditors report when these are adequately disclosed in the financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm





To the Shareholders of Freegold Ventures Limited:



We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Freegold Ventures Limited (an Exploration Stage Company) (the Company) as at 31 December 2005 and 2004 and the related consolidated statements of shareholders' equity, loss and cash flows for each of the years ended 31 December 2005, 2004 and 2003.  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 the Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2005 and 2004, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years ended 31 December 2005, 2004 and 2003 in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

Continued Operations/Going Concern and Significant Accounting Policies



a)

Continued Operations and Going Concern



The Company is in the process of acquiring, exploring and developing precious metal mineral properties.  The Company will attempt to bring the properties to production, structure joint ventures with others, option or lease properties to third parties, or sell the properties outright.  The Company has not determined whether these properties contain ore reserves that are economically recoverable and the Company is considered to be in the exploration stage.



These consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue on a going-concern basis. Several adverse conditions cast substantial doubt on the validity of this assumption. The Company has incurred losses since inception, has a working capital deficit of $805,360 at 31 December 2006 and has accumulated an operating deficit of $24,291,685 at 31 December 2006. Subsequent to the year end, the Company raised $2,935,258 ($2,805,000 from private placements (note8a) and $130,258 from sale of portfolio investments (note3)).If the Company is to advance or develop its mineral properties further, it will be necessary to obtain additional financing and while it has been successful in doing so in the past, there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so in the future.



These financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to carrying values of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses and the balance sheet classifications used that would be necessary should the going concern assumption be inappropriate.



b)

Consolidation



These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Companys wholly owned subsidiaries, Free Gold Recovery, USA, Ican Minerals, Inc. and Canu Resources, Inc.  All subsidiaries are U.S. corporations which are involved in mineral property exploration.  Inter-company balances are eliminated upon consolidation.



c)

Cash and Cash Equivalents



The Company considers cash and cash equivalents to include amounts held in banks and highly liquid investments with remaining maturities at point of purchase of 90 days or less.  The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with institutions of high-credit worthiness.



d)

Portfolio Investments



Portfolio investments are recorded at the lower of cost or quoted market value.  Portfolio investments are written down to market value when the decline in market value is deemed to be other than temporary.

Significant Accounting Policies - Continued



e)

Mineral Properties and Deferred Exploration Expenditures



The company records its interests in mineral properties at cost. The costs of acquiring mineral properties and related exploration and development expenditures, holding costs to maintain a property and related foreign exchange amounts are deferred and would be amortized against future production following commencement of commercial production or are written-off if the properties are sold, allowed to lapse or abandoned.



Option payments received are treated as a reduction of the carrying value of the related mineral property and deferred costs until the receipts are in excess of costs incurred, at which time they are credited to income. Option payments are at the discretion of the optionee, and accordingly, are recorded on a cash basis.



Management of the company regularly reviews the net carrying value of each mineral property. Where events or changes in circumstances suggest impairment, estimated future cash flows are calculated using estimated future prices, proven and probable reserves, value beyond proven and probable reserves, probability weighted outcomes and operating capital and reclamation costs on an undiscounted basis. If it is determined that the future cash flows are less than the carrying value, a write-down to the estimated fair value is expensed for the period. The company presently has no proven or probable reserves. Where estimates of future net cash flows are not available and where other conditions suggest impairment, management assesses if carrying values can be recovered. If the carrying values exceed estimated recoverable values, then the project is written-down to estimated fair values with the write-down expensed in the period.



Managements estimates of future mineral prices, recoverable resources, initial and operating capital and reclamation costs are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that may affect the recoverability of mineral property costs. Although management has made its best estimate of these factors, it is possible that changes could occur that could adversely affect managements estimate of the net cash flows to be generated from its properties.



f)

Asset Retirement Obligation



On May 1, 2004 the company retroactively adopted the new CICA accounting standard, Section 3110 for Asset Retirement Obligations. Operating under this Section, future obligations to retire an asset or property are recognized and recorded as a liability at fair value as at the time the asset is acquired or the event occurs giving rise to such an obligation. At each reporting period, asset retirement obligations are increased to reflect the interest element (accretion expense) considered in the initial fair value of the measurement of the liabilities. In addition, an asset retirement cost is added to the carrying amount of the related asset and depreciated over the life of the asset. The capitalized asset retirement cost is amortized on the same basis as the related asset and along with the accretion expense, before arriving at the net income.





g)

Amortization



The Company provides for amortization on its property, plant and equipment at 20% - 45% on a declining balance method.  One half of the rate is applied in the year of acquisition.



h)

Share Capital





Share capital issued for non-monetary consideration is recorded at an amount based on

fair market value.

1.

Significant Accounting Policies - Continued



i)

Stock-Based Compensation



All stock-based awards made to employees and non-employees are measured and recognized using the Black-Scholes valuation model.  For employees, the fair value of the options is measured at the date of the grant. For non-employees, the fair value of the options is measured on the earlier of the date at which the counterparty performance is complete or the date the performance commitment is reached or the date at which the equity instruments are granted if they are fully vested and non-forfeitable. For employees and non-employees, the fair value of the options is accrued and charged to operations, with the offsetting credit to contributed surplus, on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.  If and when the stock options are ultimately exercised, the applicable amounts of contributed surplus are transferred to share capital. The Company estimates forfeiture of stock-based awards based on historical data and adjusts the forfeiture rate periodically.



j)

Loss per Share



Basic loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the year.  The effect of potential issuances of shares under options and warrants would be anti-dilutive, and therefore basic and diluted loss per share are the same.



k)

Income Taxes



The asset and liability method is used for determining future income taxes.  Under the asset and liability method, the change in the net future income tax asset or liability is included in income.  The income tax effects of differences in the periods when revenue and expenses are recognized, in accordance with Company accounting practices, and the periods they are recognized for income tax purposes are reflected as future income tax assets or liabilities.  Future income tax assets and liabilities are measured using the statutory income tax rates which are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided to the extent that it is more likely than not that future income tax assets will not be realized.



l)

Foreign Currency Translation



The Companys subsidiaries are integrated foreign operations and their results and financial position are translated into the Companys functional currency, the Canadian dollar, using the temporal method as follows:



-

Monetary assets and liabilities at year-end rates;

-

All other assets and liabilities at historical rates; and

-

Revenue and expense items at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the year.



Translation gains and losses arising from these transactions are reflected in income or expense in the year that they occur.

m)

Management's Estimates



The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian 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 dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  Significant areas where managements judgement is applied are the determination of asset impairment, stock-based compensation and future income tax valuation allowances.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.



n)

Flow-Through Shares



During a prior year, the Company adopted the recommendations of the Emerging Issues Committee relating to flow-through shares effective for all flow-through agreements dated after 
19 March 2004.  Canadian Income Tax Legislation permits an enterprise to issue securities referred to as flow-through shares, whereby the investor can claim the tax deductions arising from the renunciation of the related resource expenditures.  When resource expenditures are renounced to the investors and the Company has reasonable assurance that the expenditures will be completed, future income tax liabilities are recognized (renounced expenditures multiplied by the effective tax rate) thereby reducing share capital.



o)

Performance shares



The Company grants performance shares to attract consultants and/or employees to the Company. Performance shares are valued at market price on the date of issuance and charged to operations with the offsetting credit to share capital.





p)

Mineral Exploration Tax Credits (METC)



The Company recognizes METC amounts and applies those amounts against deferred exploration costs when the Companys application for tax credits is approved by Canada Revenue Agency.  Assessments, if any, for taxes, penalties and interest under Part XII.6 under section 2.11.91 of the Income Tax Act are deducted from the tax credits when necessary.





2.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments



The Companys financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, term deposits, accounts and advances receivable, portfolio investments, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, loan and amounts due to related parties.  Unless otherwise noted, it is managements opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from the financial instruments.  The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying value due to their short-term maturity or capacity of prompt liquidation.



The Company is exposed to currency risk on its acquisition and exploration expenditures on its US properties since it has to convert Canadian dollars raised through equity financing in Canada to US dollars.  The Companys expenditures will be negatively impacted if the US dollar increases versus the Canadian dollar.

Mineral Property Costs - Continued



a)

Golden Summit Property, Alaska, USA



By various agreements dated from 1 December 1992 to 9 May 1997, the Company acquired from Fairbanks Exploration Inc. (FEI) certain mineral claims in the Fairbanks Mining District of Alaska known as the Golden Summit Property subject to a 7% working interest held in trust for FEI by the Company.  The property is controlled by the Company through long-term lease agreements or outright claim ownership.  As consideration for the property, the Company agreed to:



-

Issue 25,000 shares of the Company (issued in 1997);

-

Issue 25,000 shares of the Company for each US$1,000,000 in expenditures spent on the property including all underlying lease obligations since 9 May 1997 to an aggregate of 125,000 shares.  As at 31 December 2006, the Company had issued 100,000 shares (25,000 shares each in 1998,1999, 2001 and 2005).  Subsequent to year end, the Company issued the final 25,000 shares.

-

Expend a minimum of US$1,767,000 of exploration expenditures on the property before 2000 (completed); and

-

Make all required lease payments to underlying lessors (Note 4a(i-iii)).



The Company will fund 100% of the project until commercial production is achieved at which point FEI will be required to contribute 7% of any approved budget.  The property is subject to a 2% Net Smelter Royalty (NSR).  The Company has a 30 day right of first refusal in the event that the 7% working interest of FEI or the NSR is to be sold.  The Company can also purchase the NSR at any time following commercial production, based on its net present value as determined by mineable reserves.



Underlying Leases



(i)

Keystone Claims



By agreement dated 17 May 1992 and amended 15 May 2000 and 30 November 2001, the Company agreed to make advance royalty payments as follows:

(ii)

Newsboy Claims



By lease agreement dated 28 February 1986 and amended 26 March 1996, the Company assumed the obligation to make advance royalty payments of US$2,500 per year until 1996 (paid) and US$5,000 per year until 2006 (paid to date).  During 2006, the Company renewed the existing lease term for an additional 5 years on the same terms and conditions.   The claims are subject to a 4% NSR which the Company has an option to purchase for the greater of the current value or US$1,000,000 less all advance royalty payments made.





(iii)

Tolovana Claims



In May 2004, the Company entered into an agreement with a third party (the Seller) whereby the Seller transferred 100% of the rights via Quit Claim Deed to a 20-year lease on the Tolovana Gold Property in Alaska.



Under the terms of the agreement, the Company assumed all of the Sellers obligations under the lease, which include making annual payments of $1,000 per month for the first 23 months increasing to $1,250 per month for the 24th to the 48th months and increasing to $1,500 after the 49th month and for the duration of the lease. These payments are current.



The property is subject to a sliding scale NSR as follows: 1.5% NSR if gold is below US$300, in the event the price of gold is between US$300 to US$400, 2.0% NSR, and in the event that the price of gold is above US$400,the property is subject to a 3.0% NSR.  In addition, the Company has made a cash payment of US$7,500 on signing and issued 400,000 shares on regulatory approval. An additional 200,000 shares are to be issued within 30 days of a minimum 200,000 ounce mineral resource being calculated on the property if the resource is established in five years or less from the date of the agreement.



(iv)

Meridian Gold Option and Joint Venture



During 2004, the Company entered into an option and joint venture agreement with Meridian Gold Company (Meridian) with regard to the Golden Summit Project.



During 2005, Meridian terminated the agreement.  The 200,000 shares and $75,000 to be subscribed/received on or before 31 December 2004 was never subscribed/received.

Almaden Property, Washington County, Idaho, USA



By agreement dated 13 December 1995 and various amendments, the Company purchased a 60% interest in certain mineral claims located in Washington County, Idaho, known as the Almaden Property.  As consideration, the Company paid US$250,000 to underlying optionors, issued 4,621,714 common shares and completed a feasibility study.



Pursuant to the Company submitting a feasibility report, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement whereby 60% of all further costs spent on the property were the responsibility of the Company.  The joint venture assumed the requirements to pay US$250,000 to underlying optionors (paid), US$4 per month for each acre acquired (approximately US$10,000 per year [paid to date]) and US$24,000 per year (US$6,000 annually [paid to date] with the remaining US$18,000 deferred for payment upon commencement of commercial production).  The US$18,000 annual contingent liability has not been recorded in these financial statements due to the uncertainty of going into commercial production.  This accumulated contingent liability for lease payments due on commencement of commercial production is US$450,000.



By agreement dated 17 April 2001, the Company acquired the remaining 40% portion of the joint venture interest and 100% of the shares of Ican Minerals, Inc. and Canu Resources, Inc. for 500,000 shares of the Company (issued). The Company now owns a 100% interest in the Almaden Property, subject to underlying lease agreements.



The property is subject to a production royalty of 4% of net returns and a 1% NSR if the average price of gold is less than US$425 per ounce and 2% if the average price of gold is equal to or greater than US$425 per ounce.

Flow-Through Shares



Flow-through shares are shares issued by a Company that incurs certain resource expenditures and then renounces them for Canadian tax purposes.  This allows the expenditures to flow through to the subscriber for tax purposes.  The subscribers may in turn claim the expenditure as a deduction on their personal or corporate tax returns.



The total amount of funds raised through the issuance of flow-through shares must be spent on qualifying mineral exploration.  The use of proceeds from flow-through shares is restricted to certain Canadian Exploration Expenditures under Canadian Income Tax Legislation.



c)

Effective 1 January 2003, the Company adopted the recommendations of CICA Handbook Section 3870, Stock-based compensation (Note 1i).  The standard requires that stock-based awards made to employees and non-employees are to be measured and recognized using a fair value based method. During the year, the Company transferred $54,465 from contributed surplus to share capital as required when options were exercised.



During the year, the Company granted the following options and recognized the following costs with respect to options granted in 2006:





Grant dateGrantedExercise priceFair
Value2006 Vested
Amount25 January 2006110,000$0.30$10,986$4,12013 March 2006350,000$0.3586,86432,57417 July 2006100,000$0.5022,1058,84221 September 2006100,000$0.5028,662-Total660,000$148,617$45,536








The total estimated fair value of the 660,000 options is $148,617.  Since the options were granted under a graded vesting schedule, $45,536 of the total fair value has been recorded in the Company accounts as stock-based compensation expenses during the year.  The offsetting entry is to contributed surplus.

During prior years, the Company granted the following options and recognized the 2006 vested amount as follows:





Grant dateGrantedExercise priceFair
Value2006 Vested
Amount10 November 20042,000,000$0.40/$0.50$337,017$8,99113 July 2005100,000$0.309,9305,26330 September 2005500,000$0.2046,16724,045Total2,600,000$393,114$38,299








The total estimated fair value of the 2,600,000 options is $393,114.  Since the options were granted under a graded vesting schedule, $38,299 of the total fair value has been recorded in the Company accounts as stock-based compensation expenses during 2006.  The offsetting entry is to contributed surplus.









The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:



200620052004Expected dividend yield0.00%0.00%0.00%Expected stock price volatility74.70%62.76%73.52%Risk-free interest rate4.08%3.52%3.75%Expected life of options5.0 years5.0 years4.8 years




Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected price volatility.  Changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, and therefore the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the Companys stock options.

The Company has non-capital losses for Canadian tax purposes of approximately $4,843,000 available to offset against taxable income in future years, which, if unutilized, will expire through to 2016.  In addition, the Company has net operating loss carryovers for US tax purposes of approximately US$16,508,082 available to offset against taxable income in future years, which, if unutilized, will expire through to 2026. Subject to certain restrictions, the Company also has resource exploration expenditures of approximately $12,697,000 available to reduce taxable income of future years. Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these losses, resource deductions and other tax assets have not been recognized in these financial statements, and have been offset by a valuation allowance.

Future Income Tax Recovery



During a prior year, flow-through shares were issued for $1,028,000, which funds were required to be spent on certain Canadian Exploration Expenditures.  Because the Company no longer has the ability to use the expenditures for tax purposes, the Company is required to record a future tax liability ($365,968) which is equal to the renunciation, times the corporation tax rate when expenditures are renounced.  However, because the Company has unused tax losses and resource pools in excess of the renunciation, the future tax liability becomes a future income tax recovery.

Commitments

Differences Between United States and Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP")



These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Canada.  Except as set out below, these financial statements also comply, in all material aspects, with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.



a)

SEC staff have interpreted U.S. GAAP to require that mineral property exploration and land use costs must be expensed as incurred, until commercially mineable deposits are determined to exist within a particular property. Accordingly, for U.S. GAAP purposes, for all periods presented, the Company has expensed all land use costs for mineral properties and deferred exploration costs, which have been incurred by the Company, for which commercially mineable revenues do not exist. Under Canadian GAAP, such costs have been deferred. For Canadian GAAP, cash flows relating to mineral property exploration and land use costs are reported as investing activities. For U.S. GAAP, these costs would be characterized as operating activities.





b)

Under U.S. GAAP, investments classified as available for sale are recorded at market value.  The difference between the market value and the cost of the investment is recorded in comprehensive income.  Once the investment is sold, the comprehensive income for that investment is transferred to income.  Under Canadian GAAP, investments held as available for sale are recorded at the lower of cost and market.  There is no comprehensive income category in Canada.

c)

Flow-through Shares



In 2004, the Company received a premium to market on the issuance of flow-through shares of $77,100 which was recorded in share capital under Canadian GAAP. For U.S. GAAP purposes, SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, the proceeds should be allocated between the offering of the shares and the sale of tax benefits when the shares are offered.  The allocation is made based on the difference between the quoted price of the shares and the amount the investor pays for the flow-through shares.  A future tax liability is recognized for the premium paid by the investors.



In 2004, for Canadian GAAP purposes, the Company recorded a future income tax recovery of $365,968 and a corresponding reduction of share capital in respect of flow-through share financing.



d)

514,501 performance shares were released upon regulatory approval prior to 1991 from an escrow arrangement based on the maintenance of the current level of cash flow.  The excess of the fair value of these shares when the required level of cash flow was attained over the nominal original consideration paid of $0.01 per share ($5,145) would be charged to operations as compensation expense under U.S. GAAP.



e)

Under U.S. GAAP, share issue costs are charged to share capital in the year and not to deficit.



f)

Prior year restatement



Certain of the comparative numbers in this Canadian to U.S. GAAP reconciliation have been restated to reflect errors in the previous years presentation. As a result of this restatement, loss for the year 2004 under U.S. GAAP increased by $275,348. Basic and diluted loss per share under U.S. GAAP increased from$0.08 to $0.09 as a result of the restatement. Loss for the year 2005 under U.S. GAAP decreased by $2,072 as a result of the restatement. Basic and diluted loss for 2005 did not change.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements



In June 2006, FASB issued Accounting for Uncertain Tax Positions - an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, FIN 48 which prescribes a recognition and measurement model for uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the Companys tax returns.  FIN 48 provides guidance on recognition, classification, presentation and disclosure of unrecognized tax benefits. Management is required to adopt this statement effective January 1, 2007 and is currently assessing the impact on the Companys financial statements.



In September 2006, FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands fair value disclosures.  The standard does not require any new fair value measurements.  This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  Management is currently assessing the impact on the Companys financial statements.



In April 2005, the Canadian Accounting Standards Board issued new accounting standards dealing with the recognition, measurement and disclosure of financial instruments, hedges and comprehensive income, together with many consequential changes throughout the CICA Handbook.  These new standards will affect the companys Canadian GAAP interim and annual financial statements beginning in the first quarter of 2007.  The most significant new standards are as follows:



i)

Financial Instruments  Recognition and Measurement, Section 3855

This standard prescribes when a financial asset, financial liability, or non-financial derivative is to be recognized on the balance sheet and whether fair value or cost-based methods are used to measure the amounts.  It also specifies how financial instrument gains and losses are to be presented.  Management is currently finalizing its evaluation of the impact of this standard on the Companys Canadian GAAP financial statements.



ii)

Hedges, Section 3865

This standard is applicable when a company chooses to designate a hedging relationship for accounting purposes.  The adoption of this standard is not expected to impact the company.



iii)

Comprehensive Income, Section 1530

This standard requires the presentation of a statement of comprehensive income and its components.  Comprehensive income includes both net earnings and other comprehensive income.  Other comprehensive income for the company will include holding gains and losses on investments designated as available for sale.
