|   | The Company has been in the exploration stage
        since its formation in January 2000 and has not yet realized any revenues
        from its planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition,
        exploration and development of mineral properties. Upon location of a
        commercial mineable reserve, the Company will actively prepare the site
        for extraction and enter a development stage. At present, management devotes
        most of its activities to raise sufficient funds to further explore and
        develop its mineral properties. Planned principal activities have not
        yet begun. The ability of the Company to emerge from the exploration stage
        with respect to any planned principal business activity is dependent upon
        its successful efforts to raise additional equity financing and/or attain
        profitable mining operations. As at December 31, 2009, the Company has
        a working capital of $46,397 and has accumulated losses of $20,757,836
        since inception. The Company also has significant mineral property acquisition
        and exploration commitments. There is no guarantee that the Company will
        be able to complete any of the above objectives. These factors raise substantial
        doubt regarding the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.

|   | Managements plan for the next twelve
        months is to continue initial exploration activities on the New York Canyon
        Project in Nevada. The agreements pursuant to which the Company acquired
        its interests in the New York Canyon Project provide for a series of cash
        payments and annual filing maintenance costs. If the Company fails to
        make such payments or expenditures in a timely fashion it may lose its
        interest in those properties. As at December 31, 2009, the Company had
        cash of $429,818 on hand, and for the next twelve months, management anticipates
        that the minimum cash requirements to fund its proposed exploration program
        and continued operations will be $1,050,000. Accordingly, the Company
        does not have sufficient funds to meet planned expenditures over the next
        twelve months, and will need to seek additional debt or equity financing
        to meet its planned expenditures. There is no assurance that the Company
        will be able to raise sufficient cash to fund its future exploration programs
        and operational expenditures.

| |    | On January 1, 2005, a lease agreement was entered into
        with Clifford DeGraw and Richard Markiewicz on the Mildred and Copper
        Queen #1 patented claims located within the overall New York Canyon property.
        The term of the lease is seven years. As required by the lease agreement,
        there was an initial payment of $2,500, with quarterly payments commencing
        April 1, 2005 and required so long as the lease agreement remains in effect
        as follows: $2,500 per quarter during the first year; $3,500 per quarter
        during the second year; $4,000 per quarter during the third year; $5,000
        per quarter during the fourth year; and $7,500 per quarter thereafter.
        The Company also has the right to purchase the claims for $130,000 at
        any time during the term of the lease agreement and that all quarterly

| | b) | On July 21, 2004, the Company entered into a fifteen-year
        renewable lease agreement, which gives the Company the right of exploration
        for and production of minerals in eighteen mineral claims owned by the
        lessor. The mineral claims are located within the area of the Companys
        New York Canyon Copper Project. Under the terms of the agreement, the
        Company must make cash payments of $25,000 on execution of the agreement
        (paid). On the first anniversary of the execution of the agreement, the
        Company must make payments to the lessor of $1,000 per month, $2,000 per
        month after the second anniversary and $3,000 per month after the third
        anniversary for as long as the lease is in effect. In addition, at six
        and twenty-four months after the execution of the agreement the Company
        will give the lessor, respectively, 10,000 shares (issued at a fair value
        of $3,500 in fiscal 2005) and 15,000 shares (issued at a fair value of
        $7,950 in fiscal 2007) of the Companys common stock. This agreement
        is subject to a Net Smelter Interest payable to two parties (1.75% Net
        Smelter Royalty (NSR) + 0.5% NSR). The 1.75% is terminated
        upon payments of $2,000,000; then the second party will retain 1.5% NSR
        which will revert to 0.5% after an additional $2,000,000 is paid.

ITEM 2.
    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
      OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
      OPERATIONS.


CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q constitute "forward-looking statements. These statements, identified by
words such as plan, "anticipate, "believe, "estimate, "should, "expect"
and similar expressions include our expectations and objectives regarding our
future financial position, operating results and business strategy. These
statements reflect the current views of management with respect to future events
and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our
actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be
materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements.
Such risks and uncertainties include those set forth under the caption Part II
- Item 1A. Risk Factors and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We
do not intend to update the forward-looking information to reflect actual
results or changes in the factors affecting such forward-looking information. We
advise you to carefully review the reports and documents, particularly our
annual reports, quarterly reports and current reports we file from time to time
with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC).

OVERVIEW

We were incorporated on January 21, 2000 under the laws of the
State of Nevada.

We are an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition,
exploration and development of mineral properties. We currently hold 100% title
in two major claim blocks comprising a total of 1,332 mineral claims, covering
approximately 27,440 acres located in Mineral County, Nevada (the New York
Canyon Claims). We also hold 21 patented mineral claims covering an area of
approximately 420 acres, located within the vicinity of the New York Canyon
Claims area. We collectively refer to the New York Canyon Claims and the
patented claims as the New York Canyon Project.

We have not earned any revenues to date and do not anticipate
earning revenues until such time as we enter into commercial production of our
mineral properties. We are presently in the exploration stage of our business
and we can provide no assurance that commercially viable mineral deposits exist
on our claims or that we will discover commercially exploitable levels of
mineral resources on our properties, or if such deposits are discovered, that we
will enter into further substantial exploration programs.

PLAN OF OPERATION

The following discussion and analysis summarizes our plan of
operation for the next twelve months, our results of operations for the three
and six month periods ended December 31, 2009 and changes in our financial
condition from June 30, 2009. This discussion should be read in conjunction with
the Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operation included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30,
2009 filed with the SEC on September 29, 2009.

Over the next twelve months, our plan of operation is to
re-analyze the 2006 Longshot Ridge drill pulps and to initiate environmental
base line studies, which will permit us to conduct advanced exploration if
warranted. In order to implement our exploration program and to continue our
operations, we anticipate that we will require the following:

As at December 31, 2009, we had cash of $429,818 and, for the
next twelve months, management anticipates that the minimum cash requirements to
fund our proposed exploration program and our continued operations will be
$1,050,000. We do not have sufficient funds to meet our planned expenditures
over the next twelve months and will need to seek financing to meet our planned
expenditures. However, there is no assurance we will be successful in raising
the necessary funding or on terms that are acceptable to us. Since inception, we
have been dependent on investment capital and debt financing from third parties
as our primary source of liquidity. We anticipate continuing to rely on sales of
shares of our common stock and loans in order to continue to fund our business
operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in further dilution of
our existing shareholders.

Revenues

We have not earned any revenues to date and do not anticipate
  earning revenues until such time as we enter into commercial production of our
  mineral properties. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in
  discovering commercial quantities or that we can commercially produce metals
  or minerals. We are presently an exploration stage company engaged in the search
  for mineral reserves. We can provide no assurances that we will be able to discover
  any commercially exploitable levels of mineral resources on our property, or,
  even if such resources are discovered, that we will be able to enter into commercial
  production of our mineral properties.

Our operating expenses increased from $35,322 during the
quarter ended December 31, 2008, to $119,402 during the quarter ended December
31, 2009. The increase in our operating expenses is due to increases in our
general and administration expenses and foreign exchange loss.

General and administration expenses, during the quarter ended
December 31, 2009, primarily consisted of: (i) consulting fees incurred for
services provided by our executive officers; and (ii) legal and accounting fees
in connection with meeting our ongoing reporting requirements under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act). The increase in general
and administrative expenses during the quarter ended December 31, 2009 primarily
relates to increases in legal and accounting fees.

Mineral exploration costs, during the quarter ended December
31, 2009, consisted of mineral lease payments on the New York Canyon
Project.

We anticipate that our expenses will increase over the next
twelve months due to our ongoing planned exploration activities on the New York
Canyon Project.

As at December 31, 2009, we had a working capital surplus of
$46,397 as compared to a working capital deficit of $111,596 as at June 30,
2009. The change from a working capital deficit to a working capital surplus is
primarily a result of the fact that we: (i) raised proceeds from the sale of our
common stock; and (ii) decreased our accounts payables and accrued liabilities.

During the six months ended December 31, 2009, we completed the
following equity financings in reliance of Regulation S of the Securities Act:

|(a) | On August 10, 2009, we issued 12,850,000 shares of our
      common stock for gross proceeds of $514,000; and

|(b) | On August 31, 2009, we issued 1,375,000 shares of our
      common stock for gross proceeds of $55,000.      

Future Financings

Our plan of operation calls for significant expenses in
connection with the exploration of the New York Canyon Project and requires us
to obtain financing. We recorded a net loss of $829,621 for the six months ended
December 31, 2009 and have an accumulated deficit of $20,757,836 since
inception. As at December 31, 2009, we had cash of $429,818 and, for the next
twelve months, management anticipates that the minimum cash requirements to fund
our proposed exploration program and our continued operations will be
$1,050,000. Accordingly, we do not have sufficient funds to meet our planned
expenditures over the next twelve months and will need to seek financing to meet
our planned expenditures. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain
financing in the future.

Obtaining financing is subject to a number of factors,
including the market prices for the mineral property and copper. These factors
may make the timing, amount, terms or conditions of additional financing
unavailable to us. Since our inception, we have used our common stock to raise
money for our operations and for our property acquisitions. We have not attained
profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue our
plan of operation. For these reasons, our independent auditors believe there
exists a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

None.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We have identified certain accounting policies, described
below, that are most important to the portrayal of our current financial
condition and results of operations. Our significant accounting policies are
disclosed in Note 2 to our audited financial statements included in our Annual
Report for the year ended June 30, 2009.

Mineral Property Costs

We have been in the exploration stage since our inception on
January 21, 2000, and have not yet realized any revenues from our planned
operations. We are primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of
mining properties. Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred.
Mineral property acquisition costs are initially capitalized when incurred using
the guidance in EITF 04-02, Whether Mineral Rights Are Tangible or
Intangible Assets. We assess the carrying costs for impairment under SFAS
144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets at each
fiscal quarter end. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be
economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves,
the costs then incurred to develop such property, are capitalized. Such costs
will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life
of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or
impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations.

Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, we test long-lived assets or
asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate
that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could
trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the
market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate
or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount
originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current
period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a
forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current
expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed
significantly before the end of its estimated useful life. Recoverability is
assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value which is
generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to
result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific
appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the
carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

Stock-based Compensation

We record stock based compensation in accordance with SFAS
123(R), Share-Based Payments, which requires the measurement and
recognition of compensation expense, based on estimated fair values, for all
share-based awards, made to employees and directors, including stock
options.

SFAS 123(R) requires companies to estimate the fair value of
share-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. We use
the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as our method of determining fair value.
This model is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a
number of subjective variables. These subjective variables include, but are not
limited to our expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and
actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The value of the
portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an
expense in the statement of operations over the requisite service period.

All transactions in which goods or services are the
consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for
based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the
equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Not Applicable.

ITEM
4T.            CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure
  controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e))
  as of December 31, 2009 (the Evaluation Date). This evaluation was
  carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive
  Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive
  Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and
  procedures were not effective as of the Evaluation Date as a result of the material
  weaknesses disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June
  30, 2009 (the 2009 Annual Report).

---

Disclosure controls and procedures are those controls and
procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed
in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the
SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without
limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required
to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and
communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Notwithstanding the assessment that our internal control over
financial reporting was not effective and that there were material weaknesses as
identified in our 2009 Annual Report, we believe that our financial statements
contained in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December
31, 2009 fairly present our financial condition, results of operations and cash
flows in all material respects.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial
reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2009 that
have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect,
our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM
1.             
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

Other than as previously disclosed in our 2009 Annual Report,
  we are not party to any legal proceedings and there have been no material developments
  to the proceedings previously disclosed in our 2009 Annual Report.

ITEM
1A.            RISK
FACTORS.

The following are some of the important factors that could
affect our financial performance or could cause actual results to differ
materially from estimates contained in our forward-looking statements. We may
encounter risks in addition to those described below. Additional risks and
uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we currently deem to be
immaterial, may also impair or adversely affect our business, financial
condition or results of operation.

We lack an operating history and have losses which we expect
to continue into the future. As a result, we may have to suspend or cease
exploration activities and if we do not obtain sufficient financing, our
business will fail.

We were incorporated on January 21, 2000 and to date have been
involved primarily in organizational activities, the acquisition of mineral
claims and the exploration and development on these claims. We have no
exploration history upon which an evaluation of our future success or failure
can be made. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash
flow is dependent upon:

| | (i)  | our ability to locate a profitable mineral property;
      and
| | ---- | --------------------------------------------------------------
| |      |                                                               
| | (ii) | our ability to generate revenues.                             

Our plan of operation calls for significant expenses in
connection with the exploration of the New York Canyon Project, which will
require us to obtain financing. We recorded a net loss of $829,621 for the six
months ended December 31, 2009 and have an accumulated deficit of $20,757,836
since inception. As at December 31, 2009, we had cash of $429,818 and for the
next twelve months, management anticipates that the minimum cash requirements to
fund our proposed exploration program and our continued operations will be
$1,050,000. Accordingly we do not have sufficient funds to meet our planned
expenditures over the next twelve months and will need to seek financing to meet
our planned expenditures.

Obtaining financing would be subject to a number of factors,
including the market prices for the mineral property and base and precious
metals. These factors may make the timing, amount, terms or conditions of
additional financing unavailable to us. Since our inception, we have used our
common stock to raise money for our operations and for our property
acquisitions. We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon
obtaining financing to pursue our plan of operation. For these reasons, our
independent auditors believe there exists a substantial doubt about our ability
to continue as a going concern.

Because we anticipate our operating expenses will increase
prior to our earning revenues, we may never achieve profitability.

Prior to completion of our exploration stage, we anticipate
that we will incur increased operating expenses without realizing any revenues.
We therefore expect to incur significant losses into the foreseeable future. We
recognize that if we are unable to generate significant revenues from the
exploration of our mineral claims and the production of minerals thereon, if
any, we will not be able to earn profits or continue operations. There is no
history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that we will
prove successful, and we may not be able to ever generate any operating revenues
or achieve profitable operations. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these
risks, our business will most likely fail.

Because we are an exploration stage company, our business
has a high risk of failure.

As noted in the financial statements that are included with this
  report, we are an exploration stage company that has incurred net losses since
  inception, we have not attained profitable operations and we are dependent upon
  obtaining adequate financing to complete our exploration activities. These conditions,
  as indicated in our audit report on our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
  ended June 30, 2009, raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as
  a going concern. The success of our business operations will depend upon our
  ability to obtain further financing to complete our planned exploration program
  and to attain profitable operations. If we are not able to complete a successful
  exploration program and attain sustainable profitable operations, then our business
  will fail.

Because we have not commenced business operations, we face a
high risk of business failure.

We have not earned any revenues as of the date of this
Quarterly Report. Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties
normally encountered by new mineral exploration companies and the high rate of
failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of success must be considered in
light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays
encountered in connection with the exploration of the mineral properties that we
plan to undertake. These potential problems include, but are not limited to,
unanticipated problems relating to exploration, and additional costs and
expenses that may exceed current estimates.

We have no known mineral reserves and if we cannot find any,
we will have to cease operations.

We have no mineral reserves. Mineral exploration is highly
speculative. It involves many risks and is often non-productive. Even if we are
able to find mineral reserves on our property our production capability is
subject to further risks including:

|- | Costs of bringing the property into production including
      exploration work, preparation of production feasibility studies, and
      construction of production facilities, all of which we have not budgeted
      for;
|- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|- | Availability and costs of financing;                                                                                                                                                                                         
|- | Ongoing costs of production; and                                                                                                                                                                                             
|- | Environmental compliance regulations and restraints.                                                                                                                                                                         

The marketability of any minerals acquired or discovered may be
affected by numerous factors which are beyond our control and which cannot be
accurately predicted, such as market fluctuations, the lack of milling
facilities and processing equipment near the New York Canyon Project and such
other factors as government regulations, including regulations relating to
allowable production, exporting of minerals, and environmental protection. If we
do not find a mineral reserve or define a mineral inventory containing gold,
silver, copper, zinc or iron or if we cannot explore the mineral reserve, either
because we do not have the money to do it or because it will not be economically
feasible to do it, we will have to cease operations and investors will lose
their investment.

In order to maintain our rights to the New York Canyon
Project, we will be required to make annual filings with federal and state
regulatory agencies and/or be required to complete assessment work on the New
York Canyon Project.

In order to maintain our rights to the New York Canyon Project,
we will be required to make annual filings with federal and state regulatory
authorities. Currently the amount of these fees is approximately $205,000;
however, these maintenance fees are subject to adjustment. In addition, we may
be required by federal and/or state legislation or regulations to complete
minimum annual amounts of mineral exploration work on the New York Canyon
Project. A failure by us to meet the annual maintenance requirements under
federal and state laws could cause our rights to the New York Canyon Project to
lapse.

Because of the inherent dangers involved in mineral
exploration, there is a risk that we may incur liability or damages if and when
we conduct mineral exploration activities.

The search for valuable minerals involves numerous hazards. As
a result, if and when we conduct exploration activities we may become subject to
liability for such hazards, including pollution, cave-ins and other hazards
against which we cannot insure or against which we may elect not to insure. The
payment of such liabilities may have a material adverse effect on our financial
position.

If the price of base and precious metals declines, our
financial condition and ability to obtain future financings will be
impaired.

The price of base and precious metals is affected by numerous
factors, all of which are beyond our control. Factors that tend to cause the
price of base and precious metals to decrease include the following:

| | (a) | Sales or leasing of base and precious metals by
      governments and central banks;

| | (b) | A low rate of inflation and a strong US dollar;

| | (g) | Devaluing local currencies (relative to base and precious
      metals price in US dollars) leading to lower production costs and higher
      production in certain major base and precious metals producing
    regions.

Our business is dependent on the price of base and precious
metals. We have not undertaken hedging transactions in order to protect us from
a decline in the price of base and precious metals. A decline in the price of
base and precious metals may also decrease our ability to obtain future
financings to fund our planned development and exploration programs.

If we are unable to hire and retain key personnel, we may
not be able to implement our business plan.

Our success is dependent upon the performance of key personnel
working full-time in management, supervisory and administrative capacities or as
consultants. This is particularly true in highly technical businesses such as
mineral exploration. These individuals are in high demand and we may not be able
to attract the personnel we need. The loss of the services of senior management
or key personnel could have a material and adverse effect on us, our business
and results of operations. Failure to hire key personnel when needed, or on
acceptable terms, would have a significant negative effect on our business.

As we undertake exploration of our mineral claims, we will
be subject to compliance with government regulation that may increase the
anticipated cost of our exploration program.

There are several governmental regulations that materially
restrict mineral exploration. We are required to obtain work permits, post bonds
and perform remediation work for any physical disturbance to the land in order
to comply with these laws. If we enter the production phase, the cost of
complying with permit and regulatory environment laws will be greater because
the impact on the project area is greater. Permits and regulations will control
all aspects of the production program if the project continues to that stage.
Examples of regulatory requirements include:

| | (a) | Water discharge will have to meet drinking water
      standards;

| | (b) | Dust generation will have to be minimal or otherwise
      re-mediated;                                                            
| |     |                                                                                                                                    
| | (c) | Dumping of material on the surface will have to be
      re-contoured and re-vegetated with natural vegetation;                    
| |     |                                                                                                                                    
| | (d) | An assessment of all material to be left on the surface
      will need to be environmentally benign;                              
| |     |                                                                                                                                    
| | (e) | Ground water will have to be monitored for any potential
      contaminants;                                                       
| |     |                                                                                                                                    
| | (f) | The socio-economic impact of the project will have to be
      evaluated and if deemed negative, will have to be re-mediated;
  and

| | (g) | There will have to be an impact report of the work on the
      local fauna and flora including a study of potentially endangered
      species.

There is a risk that new regulations could increase our costs
of doing business and prevent us from carrying out our exploration program. We
will also have to sustain the cost of reclamation and environmental remediation
for all exploration work undertaken. Both reclamation and environmental
remediation refer to putting disturbed ground back as close to its original
state as possible. Other potential pollution or damage must be cleaned-up and
renewed along standard guidelines outlined in the usual permits. Reclamation is
the process of bringing the land back to its natural state after completion of
exploration activities. Environmental remediation refers to the physical
activity of taking steps to remediate, or remedy, any environmental damage
caused. The amount of these costs is not known at this time as we do not know
the extent of the exploration program that will be undertaken beyond completion
of the recommended work program. If remediation costs exceed our cash reserves
we may be unable to complete our exploration program and have to abandon our
operations.

If we become subject to increased environmental laws and
regulation, our operating expenses may increase.

Our development and production operations are regulated by both
US Federal and Nevada state environmental laws that relate to the protection of
air and water quality, hazardous waste management and mine reclamation. These
regulations will impose operating costs on us. If the regulatory environment for
our operations changes in a manner that increases costs of compliance and
reclamation, then our operating expenses would increase with the result that our
financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.

If we complete a financing through the sale of additional
shares of our common stock, shareholders will experience dilution.

The most likely source of future financing presently available
to us is through the issuance of our common stock. Any sale of share capital
will result in dilution to existing shareholders. The only other anticipated
alternative for the financing of further exploration would be the offering by us
of an interest in our properties to be earned by another party or parties
carrying out further exploration thereof, which is not presently contemplated.

Because our stock is a penny stock, stockholders will be
more limited in their ability to sell their stock.

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices
in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally
equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities
registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the Nasdaq
system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to
transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or quotation
system.

Because our securities constitute "penny stocks" within the
meaning of the rules, the rules apply to us and to our securities. The rules may
further affect the ability of owners of shares to sell our securities in any
market that might develop for them. As long as the quotation price of our common
stock is less than $5.00 per share, the common stock will be subject to Rule
15g-9 under the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer,
prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk
disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that:

|1. | contains a description of the nature and level of risk in
      the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary
      trading;

      dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the
      significance of the spread between the bid and ask price;

|6. | contains such other information and is in such form,
      including language, type, size and format, as the SEC shall require by
      rule or regulation.

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any
transaction in a penny stock, the customer with: (a) bid and offer quotations
for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its
salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and
ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and
liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statements
showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In
addition, the penny stock rules require that, prior to a transaction in a penny
stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a
special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for
the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt
of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving
penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.
These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading
activity in the secondary market for our stock.
