NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS





NOTE 1—BASIS OF PRESENTATION





The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2010, included in the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K. All terms used but not defined elsewhere herein have the meaning ascribed to them in the Company’s 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on April 1, 2011. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented have been included. The 2010 year-end balance sheet data was derived from the audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.




The Company is restating its historical financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. The restatement primarily relates to certain errors in processing transactions resulting in expenses being recorded in the incorrect period and for the incorrect value and the reclassification of the statement of operations to properly reflect expenses by function. Accordingly, the Company’s financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2010 have been restated to correct for these errors and are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.  For the three months ended March 31, 2010, these corrections in the aggregate reduced the Company’s previously reported net loss by $2,181,316, or $0.02 per share. Note 14 provides the effect of the restatement on the March 31, 2010 condensed consolidated financial statements.





NATURE OF OPERATIONS





Dutch Gold Resources, Inc. is engaged in the acquisition and exploration of gold mining projects in the Americas. The Company is focused on developing its existing mining properties in North America and acquiring and developing new mines with the expectation that the properties can enter production within 12 to 24 months. The Company operates in one reporting segment.





PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION





We generally act as a sole proprietor, but may enter joint agreements with other companies in an effort to achieve our stated operating objectives. Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and include our accounts and our wholly-owned subsidiaries’ accounts (collectively, the “Company”).  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain amounts in prior year presentations have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.





USE OF ESTIMATES AND PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS





The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS





NOTE 2 – ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITION OF AULTRA GOLD





Stock Purchase Agreement – Aultra Gold





Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement by and among the Company, Rauno Perttu, Strategic Minerals Inc., a Nevada corporation, and Aultra Gold Capital Inc., a Turks and Caicos corporation, the Company acquired a 67% controlling interest of Aultra Gold, Inc. (“Aultra” or “Aultra Gold”) by acquiring 6,442,500 of Aultra’s existing common shares for a purchase price of one million newly-issued shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The transaction closed on January 6, 2010. The total value of the one million shares issued based on the Dutch Gold Resources, Inc. common share closing price of $0.135 per share was $135,000.





In addition, in accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement, in 2010 the Company forgave $269,919 in advances that the Company previously made to Aultra Gold which were secured by a promissory note and recorded as an Other Current Asset by the Company as of December 31, 2009. As the forgiveness of the advances occurred resulting from the execution of the Stock Purchase Agreement, management determined that the amount forgiven should be included in the overall value of the controlling interest acquired; therefore, the Company determined that the fair value of the Aultra controlling interest was $404,919.




Asset Purchase Agreement – Aultra Gold





On January 6, 2010, Dutch Gold Resources, Inc. entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with DGRI ADGI Acquisition Corporation (the “Purchaser” and a Dutch Gold Resources, Inc. wholly owned subsidiary) and Aultra Gold, Inc. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company acquired all of Aultra Gold’s assets, which primarily consisted of the mining rights to a project in Montana and a project in Nevada.  As consideration for these assets, the Company issued 9,614,667 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, to Aultra Gold for a total value of $1,297,980 based on the $0.135 per share market price of Dutch Gold’s common stock.  In addition, in connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company issued a Dutch Gold Resources, Inc. executive and an Aultra Gold executive collectively 9,505,000 Dutch Gold common shares for a total value of $1,283,175 based on the $0.135 per share market price of Dutch Gold’s common stock. The purpose for issuing these shares was to incentivize these executives that were instrumental in the transaction and to ensure that these key executives would continue to be involved with the acquired projects.  Based on these transactions, the Company determined that the consideration paid resulting from the Asset Purchase Agreement was $2,581,155 and has accounted for the transaction using the acquisition method of accounting with the purchase price assigned to the net assets acquired based on the fair value of such assets at the date of acquisition.





In accordance with the transaction, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets related to Aultra Gold’s gold and mineral business. Management determined that the value of the assets obtained primarily relate to the mineral rights associated with the property in Basin Gulch, Montana. Dutch Gold was granted an assignment of the Basin Gulch Mine lease between Aultra Gold and Strategic Minerals as a result of the acquisition.





In order to fair value the mineral rights acquired, management utilized a compilation and review report prepared by a third-party which documented the estimated proven and probable reserves related to the Basin Gulch Mine property. Based on these findings, management estimated the value beyond proven and probable reserves (VBPP) and the Company determined that the fair value of the total consideration paid of $2,581,155 resulting from the Asset Purchase Agreement should be allocated to the mineral rights acquired. The Company has recorded the acquired mineral rights fair value as Mineral properties on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as a separate component of property, plant and equipment. As the mineral rights represent a tangible asset, the assigned fair value should be amortized over the useful life of the mineral right based on the units of production method. Management will begin the amortization of the asset once development of the site commences in accordance with the units of production method.





Summary of Stock Purchase Agreement and Asset Purchase Agreement – Aultra Gold





As a result of the Stock Purchase Agreement and Asset Purchase Agreement dated January 6, 2010, Dutch Gold Resources, Inc. owned 67% of the common shares of publicly traded Aultra and the assets of Aultra Gold which primarily related to mineral rights. Subsequent to these transactions, Aultra was basically a public shell consisting of liabilities that were not assumed by the Company and a deficit.

DUTCH GOLD RESOURCES, INC.


NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS





NOTE 2 – ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITION OF AULTRA GOLD (CONTINUED)





Aultra Gold is engaged in the business of acquiring and exploring gold and mineral properties with proven and probable reserves, with the objective of identifying gold and mineralized deposits economically worthy of continued production and/or subsequent development, mining or sale.





Dutch Gold pursued the transactions with Aultra as the Company’s mission is to become a recognized gold producer within two years with a key to this objective being the acquisition of late state exploration and development projects that can be quickly advanced to production. Based on the assets that Aultra controlled, specifically the rights to the Basin Gulch Mine property, the Company determined that the acquisition met its strategic objectives and that management believes that it has the financial resources to produce and realize the mineral rights related to the property.





Except as noted in the preceding paragraphs and as disclosed in the Stock Purchase Agreement and Asset Purchase Agreement, there were no material relationships among the Company and Aultra or any of their respective affiliates. It is the policy of the Company to segregate each of its mining projects into separate, wholly owned special purpose vehicles, for the purposes of risk mitigation and financing. The acquisition of the controlling interest in Aultra Gold was made as an investment to be held either for a spin-off or other value creation event. The Asset Purchase Agreement was executed as the Company believes that it has the resources to develop the mineral rights related to the projects acquired.





Shamika Transaction





On March 26, 2010, Aultra Gold, Inc., which had been a 67% owned subsidiary of Dutch Gold since the January 6th transactions discussed previously, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange with Shamika2Gold Inc., a Nevada Corporation (“Shamika”).   In general terms, Aultra was a public shell with limited assets and Shamika was a private company that acquired the Aultra public shell in a reverse acquisition allowing Shamika, after the transaction, to be a registrant.





Pursuant to the agreement, Aultra acquired all of the outstanding shares (the “Shamika Shares”) from the Shamika Holders in exchange for an aggregate of 25,500,000 newly issues shares of Aultra’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Exchange”). As a result of the acquisition and other concurrent transactions in Aultra’s shares, Aultra Gold, Inc. (now publically traded as Shamika 2 Gold) had 50,000,000 million shares outstanding with 967,467 pertaining to the reversed Aultra shell. Accordingly, the Exchange represented a change in control.





For financial accounting purposes, the acquisition was a reverse acquisition of Aultra by Shamika, under the purchase method of accounting, and was treated as a recapitalization with Shamika as the acquirer. Upon consummation of the Exchange, Aultra adopted the business plan of Shamika.





The business purpose of this transaction was that Shamika wanted to be a publicly traded company in order to have access to the capital markets which would provide access to funding for mining development opportunities.  As Aultra had no operations subsequent to the Asset Purchase agreement noted above, issuing shares that would result in Shamika having a controlling interest allowed Aultra (and Dutch Gold) to retain shares in a company that had the financial resources to pursue and develop new mining opportunities.





In connection with the Reverse Acquisition and on the same date, Shamika issued 23,546,067 shares of its common stock in order to satisfy certain liabilities in the amount of $301,512. As part of this transaction Dutch Gold Resources, Inc. was issued 4,950,000 shares (9.9%) of Shamika Gold Inc. The Company determined the fair value of the 4,950,000 common shares received as $1,237,500 which approximated the value of the shares on the first day that Shamika’s common shares were publicly traded. As a result of the reverse acquisition by Shamika, Dutch Gold retained the remaining Aultra liabilities not acquired of $616,154 which represents amounts owed to a former officer of Aultra (now a Dutch Gold executive), Rauno Perttu. Dutch Gold issued 10,000,000 shares to Rauno Perttu in July 2010 which reduced this liability by $200,000 ($200,000 represented the fair value of the shares on the date of issuance). Therefore, the Company has remaining a $416,154 liability which is recorded in our consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 within the Accounts payable-related parties account line.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS





NOTE 2 – ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITION OF AULTRA GOLD (CONTINUED)





At March 26, 2010, resulting from the Shamika transaction, the Aultra Board of Directors and Officers was reconstituted by the resignation of: Rauno Perttu from his role as President, Secretary and Director, Daniel Hollis from his role as Chief Executive Officer and Director, Lance Rosmarin from his role as Director, and the appointment of Robert Vivian as President and Chief Executive Officer and Terence Orstlan as Secretary and Director. The Company owns less than 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of Shamika as of March 31, 2011. Subsequent to the transaction date, the Company utilizes the cost method to account for its investment in Shamika Gold as Dutch Gold no longer has a controlling interest in Aultra nor does management have the ability to exercise significant influence over Shamika’s operating and financial policies. The Company has classified the fair value of its investment in Shamika as an available-for-sale security. Refer to Note 4 for additional discussion on this investment.





Management viewed its initial controlling interest in Aultra as substantive during the period from January 6, 2010 through March 26, 2010 as the Company’s involvement and expertise was needed in order to execute an agreement with Shamika. In addition, during this interim period Aultra’s board of directors consisted of two directors from Dutch Gold. These directors were instrumental in the Shamika transaction. Although the controlling interest was obtained on January 6, 2010 and subsequently sold on March 26, 2010, the Company did not consolidated the financial results of Aultra for this interim period as Aultra’s results were not material to the consolidated financial statements of the Company. In addition, pro-forma financials related to Aultra’s operations have not been provided as we deem this information not to be beneficial to our shareholders as Aultra’s operating activity was minimal and would not have a material effect on our operations.




We recorded our $404,169 investment in Aultra resulting from the Stock Purchase Agreement under the equity method. As stated above, we effectively sold Aultra through a reverse acquisition by Shamika on March 26, 2010. A gain on the disposition of the controlling interest of Aultra resulted from the sale to Shamika. Management determined that the gain recorded would be the difference in our initial fair value investment in Aultra ($404,169) less the $621,346 fair value of the consideration received from the Shamika transaction ($621,346 calculated as the fair value of the Shamika shares received of $1,237,500 less Aultra debt assumed of $616,154). Thus, the Company recorded in our statement of operations a $217,177 gain on sale of our Aultra investment for the three month period ended March 31, 2010.





NOTE 3—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT





The Company measures its investments based on a fair value hierarchy disclosure framework that prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. Market price observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type of asset or liability and their characteristics. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows:




•
Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments.





•
Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.





•
Level 3—Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.





The Company categorizes its investments as either trading, available for sale, or held to maturity.  The Company does not hold any securities for trading purposes or that we believe would be considered held to maturity.  The Company’s investments are comprised of available-for-sale securities and are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses, net of applicable income taxes, recorded within accumulated other comprehensive income.  The Company reviews its investments quarterly for declines in market value that are other than temporary in addition to re-evaluating the investment classification.





The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, investments, accounts payable, notes payables, loans from shareholders and accrued expenses.  The Company considers the carrying values of its financial instruments in the financial statements to approximate their fair value due to the short term nature of such items. The fair values of the Company's debt instruments are calculated based on debt with similar maturities, credit quality and current market rates of interest. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest risks arising from these financial instruments.

NOTE 4—INVESTMENTS AVAILABLE FOR SALE





As disclosed in Note 2, resulting from the Shamika Gold transaction, in 2010 the Company acquired 4,950,000 shares of common stock of Shamika 2 Gold with an investment value of $1,237,500.  Securities to be held for indefinite periods of time, but not necessarily to be held to maturity or on a long-term basis, are classified as available for sale and carried at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of shareholders' deficit in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  Based on management’s current intent of holding the majority of the shares in Shamika 2 Gold equity security, the investment is classified as a short term investment in available for sale securities. The common stock of Shamika 2 Gold is quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol “SHMX” and is, therefore, considered a Level 1 investment in the fair value hierarchy.





As of December 31, 2010, the Company held 4,905,000 Shamika 2 Gold shares and recorded a fair value of $3,188,250 as investments available for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of March 31, 2011, the Company held 4,792,836 shares with a fair value recorded of $1,150,281 and a $71,675 unrealized loss in its investment due to the decrease in the fair market value of Shamika 2 Gold’s shares during the three month period ended March 31, 2011.  Management believes that the decline its investment is considered temporary and therefore no write down of the investment value as of March 31, 2011 is needed.

The Company had convertible promissory notes outstanding at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 in the amount of $762,060 and $577,060 respectively. The notes bear interest at rates ranging from 8% to 21% per annum and mature within the next twelve months. Under the convertibility terms of the convertible promissory notes, the principal, plus accrued interest can be converted immediately, at the option of the holder, either in whole, or in part, into fully paid common shares of the Company.





The Company had a convertible debenture outstanding at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 in the amount of $200,000. The note bears an interest at a rate of 12% per annum. Under the convertibility terms of the debenture, the principal, plus accrued interest can be converted immediately, at the option of the holder, either in whole, or in part, into fully paid common shares of the Company.





These convertible promissory notes and the convertible debenture contain a beneficial conversion feature which allows the holder of the note to convert the note into common shares of the Company at a price less than market. The Company has computed and recorded


$596,796 and $293,046 value at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, for the beneficial conversion feature pertaining to the convertible notes. This amount is recorded as a discount to the principal amount of the note and is amortized to interest expense utilizing the straight-line method over the term of the related note as the results are not materially different from those which would result from the interest method. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, $441,617 and $194,976, respectively, in unamortized discount remained associated with the beneficial conversion feature. Deferred financing costs of $14,120 were incurred and capitalized as of March 31, 2011 related to obtaining the convertible notes executed in fiscal 2011. The deferred financing fees are amortized to interest expense over the term of the related convertible note agreement.

NOTE 8—CAPITAL STOCK





Preferred Stock





As of March 31, 2011, the Company had 2,000,000 shares of its $0.001 par value Series A Convertible Preferred stock issued and outstanding. During 2010, 1,000,000 shares were issued each to two executives in order to compensate these executives for compensation owed to them in accordance with their employment agreements. The value of the stock issued approximated the fair value of the services performed which was $250,000. The Series A Convertible Preferred stock provides the conversion right to common shares along with voting rights over common shareholders.





Common Stock





As of March 31, 2011, the Company had 467,999,736 shares of its $0.001 par value common stock issued and outstanding. Common Stock was issued during the three months ended March 31, 2011, to retire various debt and payable obligations of the Company based upon the actual balance and any accrued interest.  The consideration for settlement amounts for payments from the Company’s common shares was arrived at by utilizing the market value (the price of the last reported trade) of the DGRI stock on the date of issue.

No Share Purchase Warrants were issued for the period ending March 31, 2011. These common share purchase warrants do not trade in an active securities market, and as such, we estimate the fair value of these warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model as of the issuance date. Some of the warrants provide that in the event the Company is unable to issue registered shares upon exercise, the warrant holders are entitled, under securities laws, to receive freely tradable shares pursuant to a "cashless exercise" provision. However, based on interpretation of ASC 815, there is a required presumption of net cash settlement.




We determined that these warrants issued create a related liability in accordance with ASC 480-10-55-29 & 30 due to the fact that some of the warrants could be settled for cash.  In our estimation of the value of this liability, we interpreted and applied the concept of "Fair Value" from ASC 820. We took into account the remote probability of the occurrence of a fundamental transaction triggering a right to cash settlement as a probability factor in applying a Black-Scholes valuation of the warrants. The warrants have been recorded at their relative fair values at issuance and will continue to be recorded at fair value each subsequent balance sheet date.  Any change in value between reporting periods is recorded as Other Income (expense) each reporting date.  The warrants are reported as a liability rather than as equity.  The fair value of the warrants is estimated using the Black-Scholes  option-pricing model. As of March 31, 2011 and  December 31, 2010, the fair value of the warrants was determined to be $1,213,388 and $1,661,163, respectively. Accordingly, we recorded $8,868 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and  $176,359 for the year ended December 31, 2010 in losses from the valuation of the warrant liability related to the change in the fair value of the warrants. The 3,333,333 warrants issued in 2009, expired in the period ended March 31, 2011, with $456,643 being reclassified from liabilities to stockholders' deficit in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.

NOTE 9—PER SHARE DATA





Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus common stock equivalents (if dilutive) related to warrants, convertible notes and convertible preferred stock.





The Company has excluded all common equivalent shares outstanding for warrants, convertible notes and convertible preferred stock to purchase common stock from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because all such securities are antidilutive for the periods presented. As of March 31, 2011, the Company had 8,302,500 warrants, 75,454,246 potential shares which may be issued resulting from the provisions of convertible notes and 2,000,000 in convertible preferred stock to purchase common stock were outstanding. As of December 31, 2010, 11,635,833 warrants, 75,454,246 potential shares which may be issued resulting from the provisions of convertible notes and 2,000,000 in convertible preferred stock to purchase common stock were outstanding.

NOTE 10—RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)





Accounts Payable-related parties





Daniel W. Hollis, CEO of Dutch Gold Resources, Inc. has advanced a total of $260,217 and $265,934 as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.  The cash was used for general corporate purposes by the Company.





Rauno Perttu, COO of Dutch Gold Resources, Inc. has a balance owing to him of $467,004 and $477,013 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. In 2010, Dutch Gold retained the remaining Aultra liabilities not acquired of $616,154 which represents amounts owed to the now former officer of Aultra, Rauno Perttu. Dutch Gold issued 10,000,000 shares to Rauno Perttu in July, 2010 which reduced this liability by $200,000 ($200,000 represented the fair value of the shares on the date of issuance). Therefore, the Company has remaining a $416,154 liability related to the Aultra transaction which is included in the balance owed as of March 31, 2011.





NOTE 11—FINANCIAL CONDITION AND GOING CONCERN





As of March 31, 2011, the Company had cash on hand of $95,213, investments available for sale of $1,150,281, a working capital deficit of approximately $4.2 million and has incurred a loss from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's continuance is dependent on raising capital and generating revenues sufficient to sustain operations. The Company believes that the necessary capital will be raised and has entered into discussions to do so with certain individuals and companies. However, as of the date of these condensed consolidated financial statements, no formal agreement exists.





The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to secure the necessary capital and continue as a going concern.





NOTE 12—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES





The Company leases office space in Atlanta, Georgia under a one-year renewable contract presently at approximately $2,500 per month.





NOTE 13 – MINING LEASE AND OPTION TO PURCHASE





BASIN GULCH





Dutch Gold Resources, Inc. was granted an assignment of the Basin Gulch Mine lease between Aultra Gold, Inc. and Strategic Minerals, Inc. in 2010 as a result of the Asset Purchase agreement with Aultra as discussed in Note 2.





On May 31, 2006, AGDI entered into a Mining Lease Agreement with Strategic Minerals, Inc. (“Strategic”) whereby Strategic granted AGDI the exclusive right to explore, evaluate, develop, and mine the Basin Gulch Property, Montana. The advanced exploration and test mining project consists of eleven patented mineral claims, surrounded by the Deer Lodge National Forest, totaling about 217.9 acres. The claims are all located at the head of Basin Gulch, on the northern slopes of the West Fork Buttes, within the Sapphire Range of the Western Montana Rocky Mountains.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS





NOTE 13 – MINING LEASE AND OPTION TO PURCHASE (CONTINUED)





The three-stage Mining Lease Agreement for Basin Gulch is structured as follows:




Stage 1 initial payment:




ADGI paid its initial cash payment of $10,000 and prior to July 30, 2006 satisfied its reporting obligations to Strategic regarding all the exploration and studies conducted on the premises of Basin Gulch Property. This initial payment was expensed when paid.




Stage 2 advance production royalties:




To further evaluate and develop the minerals, AGDI fulfilled the following obligations:




i) By June 10, 2006, it paid a cash payment of $15,000 directly to the underlying property owner;




ii) By September 10, 2006 made cash payment of $25,000 directly to the underlying property owner, and at the end of each following


six month period to date.





iii) Since 2008, Dutch Gold Resources, Inc. made such payments under an agreement with Aultra Gold, which granted a security interest in all the claims to the AGDI.   Since 2008, DGRI has made semi- annual cash payments of $25,000 to the underlying land owner. No further payments have been or will be made to Strategic based on subsequent agreements between Strategic and the Company.





Stage 3 production royalties:




Upon commencement of production, the Company must pay the greater of:




i) A twice annual cash payment of $25,000 due on March 10 and September 10 of each year; or




ii) 3% of the gross sales receipts of the gold and silver sold, due semi-annually on March 10 and September 10 of each year;




Should production be suspended for a period of 6 months or longer, the twice annual advance production royalty of $25,000 listed above resumes. Upon the completion of payments totaling $8,000,000, the Company will have purchased the mineral rights to this property. As of March 31, 2011, production had not commenced and, therefore, the Stage 3 related production royalties were not owed.





JUNGO





On June 1, 2007, the Company entered into a formal binding Agreement of Purchase and Sale (the "Agreement") with W.R. Hansen, an individual (the “Seller”), pursuant to which the Company acquired from the Seller certain mining claims together with all improvements and all equipment owned by the Seller located thereon, located in Humboldt County, State of Nevada (the “Property”).

Closing of the sale and purchase of the Property occurred on the same date, as under the Agreement both the Company and the Seller have performed their mutual obligations under paragraph 2.2 and Section 4 thereof. As of March 31, 2011, the Jungo property was not in production.

Overview and Results of Operations





Our objective is to increase the value of our shares through the exploration, development and extraction of gold, silver and other valuable minerals. We generally conduct our business as sole operator, but we may enter into arrangements with other companies through joint venture or similar agreements in an effort to achieve our strategic objectives. We own or lease our mineral interests and properties and operate our business through various subsidiary companies, each of which is owned entirely, directly or indirectly, by us.




We own a leasehold interest in a property near Philipsburg, Montana  which is of 217 acres of patented land and approximately 900 acres of Bureau of Land Management  (BLM) land, referred to as Basin Gulch. We acquired the property in 2010 and commenced a regional exploration program in 2010. Over the next two years, we estimate we will spend approximately $4 million on exploration and development at the Basin Gulch Project, which will mainly consist of drilling and test mining.




The Jungo gold exploration project is located approximately 50 miles northwest of the town of Winnemucca in Humboldt County, Nevada. The property is situated on the eastern margin of the Jackson Mountains.




The property is on BLM land and is held by 95 unpatented lode mining claims.  Twenty five of the claims have a two percent net smelter return royalty to William (Bill) Hansen.  The other 70 claims are owned by DGRI.




The property was acquired by DGRI by the transaction with Aultra Gold in January 2010.  Mr. Hansen originally showed the property to Aultra Gold, which acquired it and staked additional claims.




Principal Executive Offices




Our principal executive office is located at 3500 Lenox Road, Suite 1500, Atlanta, Georgia 30326.  Our phone number is 404-419-2440. Our website is www.DutchGold.com. We currently lease office space for our corporate office and operations under a one-year renewable contract with monthly rental charges approximately $2,500 per month. We believe that these offices adequately meet the current needs of the Company. We make available  periodic reports and press releases on our website. Our common shares trade on the Over the Counter market under the symbol "DGRI."





General Government Regulations





United States




Mining in the State of Nevada and in the State of Montana is subject to Federal, state and local law. Three types of laws are of particular importance to our U.S. mineral properties: those affecting land ownership and mining rights; those regulating mining operations; and those dealing with the environment.




Land Ownership and Mining Rights




The Jungo Project in Nevada  is situated on lands owned by the United States (Federal Lands). On Federal Lands, mining rights are governed by the General Mining Law of 1872 (General Mining Law) as amended, 30 U.S.C. §§ 21-161 (various sections), which allows the location of mining claims on certain Federal Lands upon the discovery of a valuable mineral deposit and proper compliance with claim location requirements. A valid mining claim provides the holder with the right to conduct mining operations for the removal of locatable minerals, subject to compliance with the General Mining Law and Nevada state law governing the staking and registration of mining claims, as well as compliance with various federal, state and local operating and environmental laws, regulations and ordinances. As the owner or lessee of the unpatented mining claims, we have the right to conduct mining operations on the lands subject to the prior procurement of required operating permits and approvals, compliance with the terms and conditions of any applicable mining lease, and compliance with applicable Federal, state, and local laws, regulations and ordinances.




Mining Operations




The exploration of mining properties and development and operation of mines is governed by both Federal and state laws. The Jungo property is administered by the United States Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management, which we refer to as the BLM. In general, the Federal laws that govern mining claim location and maintenance and mining operations on Federal Lands, including the Tonkin Springs property, are administered by the BLM. Additional Federal laws, such as those governing the purchase, transport or storage of explosives and those governing mine safety and health, also apply.





The State of Nevada, likewise, requires various permits and approvals before mining operations can begin, although the state and Federal regulatory agencies usually cooperate to minimize duplication of permitting efforts. Among other things, a detailed reclamation plan must be prepared and approved, with bonding in the amount of projected reclamation costs. The bond is used to ensure that proper reclamation takes place, and the bond will not be released until this is completed. The Nevada Department of Environmental Protection, which we refer to as the NDEP, is the state agency that administers the reclamation permits, mine permits and related closure plans on our Nevada property. Local jurisdictions (such as Humboldt County) may also impose permitting requirements (such as conditional use permits or zoning approvals).

Environmental Law





The development, operation, closure and reclamation of mining projects in the United States requires numerous notifications, permits, authorizations and public agency decisions. Compliance with environmental and related laws and regulations requires us to obtain permits issued by regulatory agencies, and to file various reports and keep records of our operations. Certain of these permits require periodic renewal or review of their conditions and may be subject to a public review process during which opposition to our proposed operations may be encountered. We are currently operating under various permits for activities connected to mineral exploration, reclamation and environmental considerations. Unless and until a mineral resource is proved, it is unlikely our operations will move beyond the exploration stage. If in the future we decide to proceed beyond exploration, there will be numerous notifications, permit applications and other decisions to be addressed at that time.





The State of Montana likewise requires various permits and approvals before mining operations can begin, although the state and Federal regulatory agencies usually cooperate to minimize duplication of permitting efforts. Among other things, a detailed reclamation plan must be prepared and approved, with bonding in the amount of projected reclamation costs. The bond is used to ensure that proper reclamation takes place, and the bond will not be released until this is completed. The Montana Department of Environmental Quality, which we refer to as the MDEQ, is the state agency that administers the reclamation permits, mine permits and related closure plans on our Montana property. Local jurisdictions (such as Humboldt County) may also impose permitting requirements (such as conditional use permits or zoning approvals).




Gold Uses





Gold is generally used for fabrication or investment. Fabricated gold has a variety of end uses including jewelry, electronics, dentistry, industrial and decorative uses, medals, medallions and official coins. Gold investors buy gold bullion, official coins and jewelry.




Gold Supply





A combination of current mine production and draw-down of existing gold stocks held by governments, financial institutions, industrial organizations and private individuals make up the annual gold supply. Based on public information available for the years 2008 through 2010, on average, current mine production has accounted for approximately 61% of the annual gold supply.




On May 11, 2011, the afternoon fixing gold price on the London Bullion Market was $1,505.00 per ounce and the spot market gold price on the New York Commodity Exchange was $1,505.80 per ounce.




Gold Price History




The price of gold is volatile and is affected by numerous factors all of which are beyond our control such as the sale or purchase of gold by various central banks and financial institutions, inflation, recession, fluctuation in the relative values of the US dollar and foreign currencies, changes in global and regional gold demand, and the political and economic conditions of major gold-producing countries throughout the world.





The following table presents the high, low and average afternoon fixed prices in U.S. dollars for gold per ounce on the London Bullion Market over the past nine years:

Competition





We compete with major mining companies and other natural mineral resource companies in the acquisition, exploration, financing and development of new projects.   Many of these companies have greater resources and are better capitalized than the Company.  There is significant competition for the limited number of gold acquisition and exploration opportunities. Our competitive position depends upon our ability to successfully and economically explore, acquire and develop new and existing mineral prospects. Factors that allow producers to remain competitive over the long-term include the quality and size of ore bodies, costs of operation, and the acquisition and retention of qualified employees. The Company competes with mining companies for skilled mining engineers, mine and processing plant operators and mechanics, geologists, geophysicists and other technical personnel. This competition could result in higher employee turnover and may result in higher labor costs.





Seasonality




Seasonality is not a material factor to the Company for its projects.  Certain surface exploration work may need to be conducted when there is no snow but it is not a significant issue for the Company.




Employees




As of March 31, 2011, we had 5 employees. Our employees in the U.S. include geologists, environmentalists, information technologists and office administrators. The Company believes we have good relations with our employees. We also engage independent contractors in connection with the exploration of our properties, such as drillers, geophysicists, geologists and other technical disciplines.





Results of Operations





Three Months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010





During the three-month period ended March 31, 2011, the Company incurred operating expenses of $783,723 as compared to operating expenses of $1,419,642 for the period ended March 31, 2010.  In addition, the Company reported an increase in interest expense of $419,635 resulting primarily from interest recorded on convertible notes issued in late 2010 and during the three month period ended March 31, 2011. The Company's net loss during the three-month period ended March 31, 2011 was $1,188,856, as compared to a net loss of $987,438 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2010.





A substantial portion of the improvement in operating expenses is related to a reduction in professional fees by $711,858 for 2011. The 2011 professional fees were related to stock issued to financial consultants in connection with assisting the Company in raising funds and pursuing possible acquisitions. In 2011, as the Company still incurred related expenditures, management was able to rely less on outside consultants and raise additional funds internally through previously established relationships.





The net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $1,188,856 as compared to $987,438, for the three month period ended March 31, 2010, representing an increased loss of $201,418. The aforementioned increase in interest expense is the primarily reason for the increase in the net loss for 2011 when compared to the same period in 2010. The effect of the increase in interest expense on the net loss was partially offset by a $217,177 gain recorded resulting from the sale of the Company’s  investment in Aultra as discussed in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was ($.00) based on fully diluted weighted average shares of 467,999,736 as compared to a loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2010 of ($.01) based on fully diluted weighted average shares of 144,337,042. The decrease in the loss per share results from an increase in the number of shares outstanding at March 31, 2011.





Twelve-Month Business Outlook





In order to act upon our operating plan discussed herein, we must be able to raise sufficient funds from (i) debt financing; or, (ii) new investments from private investors.





Operating Expenses and Capital Expenditures





Operating Expenses





Assuming that the Company is successful raising funds, we anticipate incurring operating expenses of approximately $3.2 million  during the next twelve months to fund the costs relating to the development of our properties and the identification of new acquisitions.

 Table of Contents




Source of Revenue





When produced, the Company sells gold concentrates and ore to brokers and/or refineries. The Company has not produced any revenue since 2008.





Liquidity and Capital Resources





We currently have limited sources of capital, including the public and private placement of equity securities and the possibility of debt. With limited liquid assets and depreciating fixed assets, the availability of funds from traditional sources of debt will be limited and we cannot assure that there will be a source of funds in the future. The Company will take sufficient action to raise additional debt and or equity as the markets will allow.





As of March 31, 2011, we had a cash balance of $95,213. We estimate that, based upon our current business, we will require up to $5 million over the next two years.  However, the Company cannot properly anticipate the capital expenditures and working capital needed in connection with its operations and development.  As part of the Shamika transaction, Dutch Gold holds 4,792,836 shares of Shamika Resources (ticker:  AGDI), which as of March 31, 2011, $0.24 for a total market value of Dutch Gold's holdings of $1,150,281. Although not certain or guaranteed, the Company believes it has access to sufficient funding for the next twelve months.





Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates





In the first quarter of 2011, there were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in the section “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Plan of Operation and Results of Operations” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.





ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK





Not required for smaller reporting companies.





ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES





(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures





Based upon an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures, our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the SEC and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Disclosure controls and procedures are defined as those controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  As reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, based upon an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures, the Company’s chief executive and chief financial officer has determined that there are material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures.  It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote





The material weaknesses in our disclosure control procedures are as follows:





1.           Lack of formal policies and procedures necessary to adequately review significant accounting transactions. The Company utilizes a third party independent contractor for the preparation of its financial statements. Although the financial statements and footnotes are reviewed by our management, we do not have a formal policy to review significant accounting transactions and the accounting treatment of such transactions. The third party independent contractor is not involved in the day to day operations of the Company and may not be provided information from management on a timely basis to allow for adequate reporting/consideration of certain transactions.





2.          Audit Committee and Financial Expert. The Company does not have a formal audit committee with a financial expert, and thus the Company lacks the board oversight role within the financial reporting process.





24
 Table of Contents


We intend to initiate measures to remediate the identified material weaknesses including, but not necessarily limited to, the following:


-           Establishing a formal review process of significant accounting transactions including the appropriate segregation of duties that includes participation of the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer and the Company’s corporate legal counsel.





-           Form an Audit Committee that will establish policies and procedures that will provide the Board of Directors a formal review process that will, among other things, assure that management controls and procedures are in place and being maintained consistently.





(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting





As reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, management is aware that there are material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and therefore has concluded that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2010. The significant deficiency relates to a lack of segregation of duties due to the small number of employees involvement with general administrative and financial matters.  The material weakness relates to a lack of formal policies and procedures necessary to adequately review significant accounting transactions.  There have not been any changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION





Item 1.    Legal Proceedings





From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation in the normal course of business, the results of which could have a material impact on our properties, results of operation or financial condition. To the best of our knowledge, none of our officers or directors are involved in any legal proceedings in which we are an adverse party.  Management currently believes that resolving any such claims against us will not have a material adverse impact on our business, financial position or results of operations. These matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and management’s view of these matters may change in the future.  We are not aware of any other pending legal proceeding to which any of our officers, directors, or any beneficial holders of 5% or more of our voting securities are adverse to us or have a material interest adverse to us.
