                             FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


The unaudited financial statements of the Company for the periods covered by
this report are included elsewhere in this report, beginning at page F/S-1.
The unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the Company in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of
Regulation S-B.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.  In the opinion of the Company's management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary
for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine
month period ended September 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2002.

For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes
thereto in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended
December 31, 2001 incorporated by reference herein.

                                  ITEM 2.

        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Cash increased to $110,684 for the current quarter compared to $211 at the
end of the last fiscal year and $493 for the quarter ending September 30,
2001. The increase in cash was due to the completion of a private placement
of stock completed in May 2002 pursuant to Rule 506 Regulation D of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Expenses increased to $43,932 for the current quarter compared to $3,603 for
the quarter ended September 30, 2001 primarily due to the exploration program
at the New Jersey mine.  Capital lease obligations declined from $4,674 one
year ago to $0 in the current quarter as equipment leases were paid off.

The Company currently leases the New Jersey mill and mine facilities to the
largest shareholder. The Company is in the midst of an exploration program at
its New Jersey mine, Silver Strand mine and Lost Eagle project funded by the
stock placement.  It is planned to meet cash requirements in the foreseeable
future from the private placement proceeds, royalty payments by the lessee,
and monthly payments due from the lessee of the CAMP project.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2002, the Company's board of directors
approved an exchange offer to Gold Run Gulch Mining Company (GRG).  The
Company offered 0.875 of a common share of New Jersey Mining Co. in exchange
for one common share of GRG.  GRG leases the New Jersey mine property to the
Company.  Subsequent to September 30, 2002, the shareholders of GRG approved
the exchange offer.  New Jersey Mining Company will issue 1,916,250 shares of
restricted stock to the shareholders of GRG to complete the merger.  The
merger gives the Company  title to 62 acres of patented mining claims,
mineral rights to 108 acres of fee land, and 130 acres of unpatented claims.
A Net Smelter Royalty (NSR) of 5% due GRG on gold production will now be
eliminated.

The company is involved in exploring for and developing gold, silver and base
metal ore resources in the Coeur d'Alene Mining District of northern Idaho.
The Company has a portfolio of five mineral properties in the Coeur d'Alene
Mining District: the New Jersey mine, the Silver Strand mine, the Lost Eagle
project, the CAMP project and the Wisconsin-Teddy project. The New Jersey
mine and the Silver Strand mine are the Company's development stage
properties while the other three properties are exploration stage properties.

For a more complete description of the Company's properties refer to the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2001.

                           CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.  Based on their
evaluation, as of a date within 90 days prior to the date of the filing of
this Form 10-QSB, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls
and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, the principal executive officer and the principal
financial officer of the Company have each concluded that such disclosure
controls and procedures are effective and sufficient to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it
files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified by the SEC's rules and forms.

    Changes in Internal Controls.  Subsequent to the date of their evaluation,
there have not been any significant changes in the Company's internal controls
or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls, including
any corrective action with regard to significant deficiencies and material
weaknesses.

                         NEW JERSEY MINING COMPANY

                NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED

These unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the Company in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of
Regulation S-B.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.  In the opinion of the Company's management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary
for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine
month period ended September 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2002. For
further information refer to the financials statements and footnotes thereto
in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,
2001 incorporated by reference herein.

Note 1 - Form and Organization

New Jersey Mining Company (the company) is a corporation organized under the
laws of the State of Idaho on  July 18, 1996.  The Company was dormant until
December 31,1996, when all of the assets and liabilities of the New Jersey
Joint Venture ( a partnership) were transferred to the Company in exchange
for 10,000,000 shares of common stock. The New Jersey Joint Venture, a
partnership, was formed in 1994 to develop the New Jersey mine.

Note 2 - Leases of Mining Claims

The Company has been assigned mining leases with Gold Run Gulch Mining
Company and William Zanetti.  The leases provide for the Company's
exploration, development and mining of minerals on patented and unpatented
claims through October 2008 and thereafter as long as  mining operations are
deemed continuous. The leases provide for production royalties of 5% of net
sales of ores or concentrates. Additional production royalties of 1% to 5%
are due if gold exceeds $587 per troy ounce. Also, annual advance royalties
totaling $2,900 are required under the leases. The advance royalties, charged
to expenses as incurred, are accumulated and will be credited against the
production royalty obligations. The lessor may terminate the leases upon the
Company's failure to perform under these terms of the leases.  The Company
may also terminate the leases at any time.

Note that the merger with Gold Run Gulch Mining Company, when completed, will
remove the Net Smelter Royalty and advance royalty payments due Gold Run
Gulch.  The lease with William Zanetti remains unchanged.

The Company has a mining lease with Mine Systems Design, Inc., its majority
shareholder, which covers approximately 60 acres north of the New Jersey
mine.  The lease has a fifteen year term and calls for a 3% NSR if production
is achieved.  The NSR shall not exceed 10% of the gross proceeds.
