                               PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

GENERAL

     Royal Silver Mines, Inc. (the "Company"), formerly known as
Consolidated Royal Mines, Inc., and also, Royal Minerals, Inc., is a
U.S. mineral resource company incorporated under the laws of the State
of Utah.  The Company is engaged in the business of acquiring and
exploring mineral properties containing silver, gold, copper, and other
mineralization. Prior to September 30, 1995, the Company acquired all
of the outstanding securities of Celebration Mining Company
("Celebration"), a development stage company, pursuant to a share
exchange agreement and plan of reorganization ("Reorganization").

     Prior to the Reorganization, Celebration was a non-public, closely
held Washington corporation.  It was formed in February 1994 to
identify and acquire mineral properties for subsequent exploration and
development, if warranted, through equity financing and joint venture
arrangements.  The Reorganization was accounted for as a purchase by
Celebration of the Company.  Celebration was treated as the acquiring
company for financial reporting purposes because its shareholders
constituted greater than 50% of the combined shareholder group at the
time of reorganization.  In conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles and the Company's accounting policy, Celebration
is recognized as the predecessor entity.  Consequently, Celebration's
assets and liabilities were not adjusted in the accompanying financial
statements.  On the other hand, for purposes of reporting statutory and
corporate authority, the Company is deemed to be the acquiring
corporation, and Celebration is now  a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company.  Prior to the Reorganization, the Company had been a
majority-owned subsidiary of Centurion Mines Corporation ("Centurion").
Currently, Centurion owns no Common Stock of the Company.

     The Company operates its business as an exploration stage company,
meaning that it intends to receive income from property sales, joint
ventures, or other business arrangements with larger companies, rather
than developing and placing its properties into production on its own.

     The Company currently has no revenues.  At September 30, 1999, the
Company's accumulated deficit was $10,457,146.  Regarding its losses
from operations, the Company cannot assure that it will be able to
carry out its plans as budgeted without additional operating capital.
At September 30, 1999, the Company had a cash balance of $28,147 and
negative working capital of $93,456 as compared to a cash balance of
$3,147 and positive working capital of $303,600 at September 30, 1998.

     The Company will need additional capital resources to continue
operations and has reduced monthly expenditures to approximately $2,000
per month.  The industry took a tremendous and very significant
downturn in 1997 and 1998 primarily a result of the fall-out from the
Bre-X scandal which resulted in substantial losses for investors and
has placed a deep chill upon the ability of exploration companies to
raise capital.  Secondly, the impact of a steadily declining gold price
through 1997 placed added downward pressure on prices of mining shares

<PAGE> 4

in general. Further, as the Asian crises unfolded in 1998, prices for
copper, lead, zinc and silver plunged to multi-year lows.  As a whole,
the entire industry suffered an unprecedented decline.  Throughout 1999
there was no noticeable improvement in the climate for exploration
companies.

     Given this unprecedented decline in both metal prices and the
entire exploration sector, the directors of the Company have been
forced to adopt a major austerity program.  The Company closed its
office in Spokane and laid off all of its remaining employees as of
August 1998.  The two principal officers of the Company have continued
to work without cash compensation, and the office has been relocated to
Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, where the Company is sub-letting space from one
of its officers for $200 a month.

     At September 30, 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company made
the decision to write off the value of the Company's interest in the
Crescent Mine lease, which was being carried on the Company's books at
$1,294,867.

     A number of factors were considered by the Directors in arriving
at this decision.  First, the lingering depressed price of silver
continues to render the property difficult or impossible to finance,
given the depressed nature of the exploration sector.  Second, the
recent developments in the West Chance area of the Sunshine Mine next
to the Crescent have not been encouraging, making it less likely that
any offers would ever materialize from Sunshine.  Finally, the on-going
litigation initiated by the Company to determine the validity of its
lease, and to possibly seek damages from the lessor is not likely to be
resolved quickly, making it unlikely that the Company would be prepared
to fulfill its work commitment.  See "Litigation."

     As such, in accordance with GAAP rules, the Company has written
down the value of the lease to zero at September 30, 1999.

     The Company intends to continue to operate at a very low
expenditure level until such time as recovery in the exploration sector
becomes evident.  The Company will continue to eschew any long term
debt in order to protect the long term viability of the Company's
assets.

     During the 1999 fiscal year, the Company negotiated a contingency
license agreement with Integrated Environmental Technologies of
Richland, Washington to acquire exclusive worldwide rights to IET's
patented plasma smelter technology for applications to mining and
mineral processing.

     The agreement calls for a successful technical demonstration via
a one ton test prior to any license rights being earned or any
compensation being given to IET.  During the 1999 fiscal year, IET
completed a very small scale bench test which indicated the possibility
that its technology may work for the application in question.

     The Company is currently discussing a possible joint venture to
fund the one ton demonstration, but no definitive agreement has been
reached.

<PAGE> 5

     During the twelve months ended September 30, 1999, the Company
placed 2,870,000 shares of its common stock for $158,200 in cash.
However, in the current depressed market, it is believed that future
placements will be much more difficult, if not impossible to complete.

     As discussed in greater detail below in the section entitled
"Strategy and Business Plan" a substantial portion of the Company's
assets consist of investments in mineral properties for which
additional exploration is required to determine if they contain
mineralization that is economically recoverable.  The realization of
these investments is contingent to a large extent upon the success of
the Company's property transactions as a whole, the existence of
economically recoverable metals and other mineralized material, the
ability of the Company to obtain financing or make other arrangements
for development, and upon future profitable production.  The likelihood
and extent to which these contingencies may be material is uncertain,
and the Company cannot assure that the outcome of these uncertain
events will not have a material impact and result in adverse
consequences to the Company.  If the Company does not receive suitable
financing or funds from its present or future business arrangements to
develop these properties, and continues to suffer losses from
operations, the Company may have to cease operations entirely.

HISTORY

     The Company was incorporated in Utah on April 6, 1969, as Royal
Resources, Inc. for the purpose of acquiring and developing mineral
properties.  The Company changed its name to Royal Minerals, Inc., on
January 6, 1983, and became a public company in July 1984.  The Company
complied with the Securities and Exchange Commission reporting
requirements until August 1986, at which time the Company filed Form 15
with the Commission and suspended further reporting requirements.  On
January 31, 1992, Centurion owned 82.3% of the Company's common stock.
See "Centurion's Acquisition and Control of the Company."  Also on
January 31, 1992, the Company shareholders authorized a 5-for-1 reverse
stock split, and on March 4, 1994, authorized a 4-for-1 reverse stock
split of the common stock of the Company.  On March 17, 1994, the
Company changed its name to Consolidated Royal Mines, Inc.  On November
22, 1994, the Company filed a registration statement on Form 10 and
renewed its reporting requirements, effective January 23, 1995.  During
the fourth quarter of Fiscal 1995, the Company revised its business
plan to concentrate on the acquisition of silver properties.  That
change in focus prompted Consolidated Royal Mines, Inc. and Celebration
Mining Company to implement the Reorganization, which closed on August
8, 1995, and to change the Company's name to Royal Silver Mines, Inc.,
effective September 18, 1995.

STRATEGY AND BUSINESS PLAN

     The Company believes that control of land and mineral rights is
the key ingredient for financial success in the exploration and
development phases of the mining business.  Previously, the Company had
concentrated its main exploration efforts in Idaho's Coeur d'Alene
Mining District and to a much lesser extent in the Lakeview Mining
District, and Utah's Ashbrook Mining District where the Company owns a
25% interest in the Vipont Mine property.  During fiscal 1998, the

<PAGE> 6
Company shifted its strategy and toward the acquisition of properties
and exploration in Chile, Mexico, and Argentina.  The Company does not
currently have sufficient capital to carry out its strategy and
continue this business plan.

     The Company's plan of operation for fiscal 2000 is to conserve its
resources and protect its assets consistent with the lowest possible
level of expenditure.

     The Board of Directors will continue to evaluate opportunities for
the Company, and will seek to pursue opportunities to enhance
shareholder value, however, any such opportunities must be viewed in
the context of the Company's very limited liquidity, as well as the
stated goal of protecting the Company's balance sheet.

PRIVATE PLACEMENTS.

     In July 1995, the Company completed a private placement of 8,700
shares through two Regulation S offerings, both at a price of $2.00 per
share, for a total of $17,400.  During September 1995, the Company
completed a private placement of 179,000 shares of common stock through
a domestic offering at a price of $1.50 per share for a total of
$241,650 after expenses.  During the twelve months ended September 30,
1996, the Company placed 1,949,332 shares of its common stock for
$2,958,314 in cash.  The Company also issued 406,050 shares of its
common stock in lieu of outstanding debt of $570,919, plus accrued
interest. The stock was issued at $1.50 per share for a total value of
$609,075.

     On the 30th day of January, 1997, the Company sold to Britannia
Holdings Limited ("Britannia"), Channel Islands, 200,000 Units, at
$0.75 per Unit or a total of $150,000.  The Registrant also granted
Britannia an option to purchase an additional 335,000 Units on February
14, 1997 and an additional 800,000 Units on March 3, 1997.  Each Unit
consists of one share of Common Stock and one warrant to purchase one
additional share of Common Stock at $1.25 per share.  The Units were
issued in reliance upon the transaction exemption afforded by
Regulation S, as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission,
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  Britannia Holdings
Limited exercised all of these warrants.

     On the 14th day of February, 1997, the Registrant sold to
Britannia, 335,000 Units, at $0.75 per Unit or a total of $251,250. The
Registrant previously granted Britannia an option to purchase an
additional 800,000 Units on March 3, 1997.  The option exercise date of
March 3, 1997 was extended by mutual agreement of the parties to March
24, 1997 and the option was increased to 1,200,000 units.  On March 24,
1997, Britannia Holdings exercised its option and purchased 1,600,000
units at $0.75 per unit, for a total of $1,200,000.  Each Unit consists
of one share of Common Stock and one warrant to purchase one additional
share of Common Stock at $1.25 per share.  The warrants will expire two
years from the date of closing of each transaction.  The Units were
issued in reliance upon the transaction exemption afforded by
Regulation S, as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission,
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  As of the 19th day of
December, 1997, Britannia Holdings Limited had not exercised any
warrants.

     On the 26th day of February, 1997, the Company sold to Louk
Jongen, ("Jongen"), Holland, 100,000 Units, at $0.75 per Unit or a
total of $75,000. Each Unit consists of one share of Common Stock and
one warrant to purchase one additional share of Common Stock at $1.25
per share.  The warrants will expire two years from the date of
closing. The Units were issued in reliance upon the transaction
exemption afforded by Regulation S, as promulgated by the Securities
and Exchange Commission, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
As of the 6th day of March, 1997, Jongen had not exercised any
warrants.

     On the 5th day of March, 1997, the Company sold to NCL Investments
Limited ("NCL"), London, England, 136,000 Units, at $0.75 per Unit or
a total of $102,000.  Each Unit consists of one share of Common Stock
and one warrant to purchase one additional share of Common Stock at
$1.25 per share.  The warrants will expire two years from the date of
closing.  The Units were issued in reliance upon the transaction
exemption afforded by Regulation S, as promulgated by the Securities
and Exchange Commission, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
As of the 6th day of March, 1997, NCL had not exercised any warrants.

     In November 1997, the Company sold 10,000 "restricted" shares to
a non-affiliate for $0.75 per share for a total of $7,500, pursuant to
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

     In April 1998, the Company sold 913,333 "restricted" shares to a
director, a major shareholder and a non-affiliated investor at $0.15
per share for a total of $136,999, pursuant to Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

     In June 1998, the Company sold 3,000,000 "restricted" shares to
Pines International for $0.25 per share, payable as $50,000 cash down
and a note for $700,000. Subsequent to the fiscal year end, the Company
and Pines International negotiated a settlement agreement whereby Pines
International returned 2,000,000 shares to the Company and the note was
canceled, pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.

     In May 1999, the Company sold 1,000,000 share of "restricted"
common stock to a non-affiliate investor for $50,000.  In June 1999,
the Company sold 300,000 common shares to a non-affiliate for $21,000
in cash.

COMPETITION

     The mining industry is very competitive.  There is a high degree
of competition to obtain favorable mining properties and suitable
mining prospects for drilling, exploration, development and mining
operations.  The Company encounters competition from a handful of other
similarly-situated mining companies in the silver mining industry in
connection with the acquisition of properties capable of profitably
producing silver and other mineralization.





<PAGE> 8

RISK FACTORS.

     The following risk factors with respect to the Company and its
operations may affect its strategy and business plan:

     1.    Going Concern.  The Company's auditors have raised the issue
that the Company may not be able to continue as a going  concern as a
result of net losses; a significant accumulated deficit; and, a
significant change in the Company's liquidity.

     2.  Recent Status as a Public Reporting Company.  The Company
became a fully reporting public company on January 23, 1995.  The
Company has no current operating history and is subject to all risks
inherent in a developing business enterprise.  The likelihood of
success of the Company must be considered in light of the problems,
expenses, difficulties, complications, and delays frequently
encountered in connection with a new business in general and those
specific to the natural resource industry and the competitive and
regulatory environment in which the Company will operate.

     3.  Exploration Stage Company.   Mineral exploration, particularly
for gold and silver, is highly speculative in nature, frequently is
nonproductive, and involves many risks, often greater than those
involved in the actual mining of mineralization.  Such risks can be
considerable and may add unexpected expenditures or delays to the
Company's plans.  There can be no assurance that the Company's mineral
exploration activities will be successful or profitable. Once
mineralization is discovered, it may take a number of years from the
initial phase of drilling until production is possible, during which
time the economic feasibility of production may change.  A related
factor is that exploration stage companies use the evaluation work of
professional geologists, geophysicists, and engineers for estimates in
determining whether to acquire an interest in property or to commence
exploration or development work.  These estimates generally rely on
scientific estimates and economic assumptions, and in some instances
may not be correct, and could result in the expenditure of substantial
amounts of money on a property before it can be determined whether or
not the property contains economically recoverable mineralization.  The
economic viability of a property cannot be determined until extensive
exploration and development has been conducted and a comprehensive
feasibility study performed.  The Company currently does not have any
such feasibility studies, and has not yet prepared feasibility studies
on any of its properties.  Moreover, the market prices of any minerals
produced are subject to fluctuation, which may negatively affect the
economic viability of properties on which expenditures have been made.
The Company is not able to determine at present whether or not, or the
extent to which, such risks may adversely affect the Company's strategy
and business plans.

     4.  Lack of Revenue.  The Company needs additional capital but
currently has no revenues.  Substantial expenditures are required to
establish ore reserves through drilling, to determine metallurgical
processes to extract the mineralization from the ore and, in the case
of new properties, to construct mining and processing facilities.  The
Company lacks a constant and continual flow of revenue.  The Company
currently holds certain royalty interests in several mining properties

<PAGE> 9
previously sold, but there is no assurance that the Company will
receive royalty payments, or that the Company will otherwise receive
adequate funding to be able to finance its exploration activities.  The
Company is looking for revenue sources on an on-going basis, but there
can be no assurance that such sources can be found or that, if
available, the terms of such financing will be commercially acceptable
to the Company.  Because of the Company's need for additional capital
to fund its present operations, to complete the acquisition of certain
mineral rights, and to provide for further exploration and development,
the lack of consistent revenue could be a detrimental factor in the
progress of the Company.

     5.  Realization of Investments in Mineral Properties and
Additional Capital Needs.  The ultimate realization of the Company's
investments in mineral properties is dependent upon the success of
future property sales, the existence of economically recoverable
reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain financing or make other
arrangements for development and upon future profitable production.
The Company expects to finance its operations for Fiscal 1999 through
the sale of equity securities, joint venture arrangements (including
project financing), and the sale of interests in mineral properties.
The Company does not have sufficient capital of its own to explore and
develop its mineral properties and there can be no assurance that the
Company will be successful in obtaining the required funds to finance
its long-term capital needs.

     6.  Retention and Attraction of Key Personnel.  The Company's
success will depend, in large part, on its ability to retain and
attract highly qualified personnel.  The Company's success in
attracting qualified personnel will depend on many factors, including
its ability to provide them with competitive compensation arrangements,
equity participation and other benefits.  There is no assurance that
the Company will be successful in retaining or attracting highly
qualified individuals in key management positions.

               7.  Regulatory Concerns.  Environmental and other
government regulations at the federal, state and local level pertaining
to the Company's business and properties may include: (a) surface
impact; (b) water acquisition; (c) site access; (d) reclamation; (e)
wildlife preservation; (f) licenses and permits; and, (e) maintaining
the fees for unpatented mining claims.  See "Business - Government
Regulation and Environmental Concerns."

     8.  Working Capital; Accumulated Deficit; Auditor's Report.
Although it commenced operations more than two years ago, the Company
remains in the development stage.  At September 30, 1999, the Company
had negative working capital of $93,456 and an accumulated deficit of
$10,457,146, with deficits and losses expected to continue for the
foreseeable future.  The Company's operations are subject to numerous
risks associated with the mining industry.

     9.  Reliance Upon Directors and Officers.  The Company is wholly
dependent, at the present, upon the personal efforts and abilities of
its Officers and Directors who exercise control over the day to day
affairs of the Company.  There can be no assurance as to the volume of
business, if any, which the Company may succeed in obtaining, nor that
its proposed operations will prove to be profitable.

<PAGE> 10
     10.  Indemnification of Officers and Directors for Securities
Liabilities.  The Bylaws of the Company provide that the Company may
indemnify any Director, Officer, agent and/or employee as to those
liabilities and on those terms and conditions as are specified in the
Utah Business Corporation Act.  Further, the Company may purchase and
maintain insurance on behalf of any such persons whether or not the
corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against the
liability insured against.  The foregoing could result in substantial
expenditures by the Company and prevent any recovery from such
Officers, Directors, agents and employees for losses incurred by the
Company as a result of their actions.  Further, the Company has been
advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and is, therefore, unenforceable.

     11.  Cumulative Voting, Preemptive Rights and Control.  There are
no preemptive rights in connection with the Company's Common Stock.
Cumulative voting in the election of Directors is not provided for.
Accordingly, the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock,
present in person or by proxy, will be able to elect all of the
Company's Board of Directors.  See "Description of the Securities."

     12.  Potential Future Sales Pursuant to Rule 144.  At December 15,
1999, there were issued and outstanding approximately 21,362,065 shares
of Common Stock of which 8,887,003 shares were "Restricted Securities"
as that term is defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended.  In general, under Rule 144, a person (or
persons whose shares are aggregated) who has satisfied a one (1) year
holding period, may sell within any three month period, an amount which
does not exceed the greater of 1% of the then outstanding shares of
Common Stock or the average weekly trading volume during the four
calendar weeks prior to such sale.  Rule 144 also permits the sale of
shares, under certain circumstances, without any quantity limitation,
by persons who are not affiliates of the Company and who have
beneficially owned the shares for a minimum period of two (2) years.
Hence, the possible sale of these restricted shares may, in the future
dilute an investors percentage of free-trading shares and may have a
depressive effect on the price of the Company's securities and such
sales, if substantial, might also adversely effect the Company's
ability to raise additional equity capital.

     13.  No Dividends.  The holders of the Common Stock are entitled
to receive dividends when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors
out of funds legally available therefore.  To date, the Company has not
paid any cash dividends.  The Board does not intend to declare any
dividends in the foreseeable future, but instead intends to retain all
earnings, if any, for use in the Company's business operations.  As the
Company will be required to obtain additional financing, it is likely
that there will be restrictions on the Company's ability to declare any
dividends.

     14.  Impact of Year 2000 Issue.    The Company has reviewed its
internal computer systems and products and their capability of
recognizing the year 2000 and years thereafter.  The Company expects
that any costs relating to enuring such systems to be a year 2000
compliant will not be material to the financial condition or results of
operations of the Company.

PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, LICENSES, FRANCHISES.

     The Company does not own any patents, trademarks, licenses,
franchises, or concessions, except for patented mining claims granted
by governmental authorities and private land owners and a contingent
licensing agreement with Integrated Environmental Technologies of
Richmond, Washington.  See "Item 1.  Business - General."

SEASONABILITY.

     The Company's business is generally not seasonal in nature except
to the extent that weather conditions at certain times of the year may
affect the Company's access to its properties.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS.

     The Company is committed to complying and, to its knowledge, is in
compliance with all governmental and environmental regulations.  The
Company's activities in the United States are subject to extensive
federal, state and local laws and regulations controlling not only the
mining of and exploration for mineral properties, but also the possible
effects of such activities upon the environment.  Permits from a
variety of regulatory authorities are required for many aspects of mine
operation and reclamation.  The Company cannot predict the extent to
which future legislation and regulation could cause additional expense,
capital expenditures, restrictions and delays in the development of the
Company's U.S. properties, including those with respect to unpatented
mining claims.

     The Company's activities are not only subject to extensive
federal, state, and local regulations controlling the mining of and
exploration for mineral properties, but also the possible effects of
such activities upon the environment.  Future legislation and
regulations could cause additional expense, capital expenditures,
restrictions and delays in the development of the Company's properties,
the extent of which cannot be predicted.  Also, as discussed above,
permits from a variety of regulatory authorities are required for many
aspects of mine operation and reclamation.  In the context of
environmental permitting, including the approval of reclamation plans,
the Company must comply with known standards, existing laws and
regulations that may entail greater or lesser costs and delays
depending on the nature of the activity to be permitted and how
stringently the regulations are implemented by the permitting
authority.  The Company is not presently aware of any specific material
environmental constraint affecting its properties that would preclude
the economic development or operation of any specific property.
However, the general obstructionist regulatory environment within the
United States impedes development of its properties and the Company
plans to do limited work in the United States, unless metal prices rise
significantly or the regulatory environment grows dramatically more
favorable to industry.

     At present, the Company does not have any environmental control
facilities. Thus, the Company has not made any material capital
expenditures for environmental controls, other than the nominal costs
of preparing the plans and contingencies for such environmental
controls, measures and facilities as may be required in its future
activities.
<PAGE> 12

     If the Company becomes more active on its U.S. properties, it is
reasonable to expect that compliance with environmental regulations
will increase costs to the Company.  Such compliance may include
feasibility studies on the surface impact of the Company's proposed
operations; costs associated with minimizing surface impact; water
treatment and protection; reclamation activities, including
rehabilitation of various sites; on-going efforts at alleviating the
mining impact on wildlife; and permits or bonds as may be required to
ensure the Company's compliance with applicable regulations.  It is
possible that the costs and delays associated with such compliance
could become so prohibitive that the Company may decide to not proceed
with the exploration, development, or mining operations on any of its
mineral properties.

OFFSHORE REGULATION.

     The Company is aware of comparable environmental regulation in
offshore countries where it was operating.  The Company was committed
to full compliance with these regulations and engaged legal counsel in
Mexico, Chile and Argentina who assisted the Company to assure
compliance.

OFFICES

     The Company's executive office is located at 1010 Ironwood Drive,
Suite 105, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho 83814.  The Company sub-leases its
office from one of its officers for $200.00 per month.

EMPLOYEES

     The Company has no employees.  The Company, therefore, arranges
for its work through contracts with various consultants.  The Company
may contract with additional consultants from time to time, as required
by its operations.  Consultants are treated as independent contractors.

CENTURION'S ACQUISITION AND CONTROL OF THE COMPANY

     In October 1991, Centurion entered into negotiations with the
officers and directors of the Company for the acquisition and control
of the Company.  In November 1991, Centurion's Board of Directors
approved this acquisition.  Subsequently, Centurion entered into
subscription and investment agreements with several of the Company's
principal shareholders, whereby Centurion exchanged 174,743
"restricted" shares of Centurion stock and $1,600 cash for shares of
Company common stock constituting 37.2% ownership of the Company's
outstanding shares.  On January 10, 1992, the Company's Board of
Directors authorized the exchange of 100,000 post-split shares of the
Company's common stock for approximately 4,196 acres of unpatented
mining claims and state and private mineral leases from Centurion.  On
January 31, 1992, at the Company's Annual Shareholders Meeting, the
shareholders authorized the purchase of approximately 17,000 acres of
mining properties from Centurion for 1,250,000 post-split shares of
Company common stock.  This acquisition of shares gave Centurion an
82.3% controlling interest in the Company.  The Company does not
believe that Centurion's successor company owns any shares as of
September 30, 1999.

THE COMPANY'S OWNERSHIP INTEREST IN GRAND CENTRAL SILVER MINES

     On November 25, 1997, Centurion issued 5,000,000 (500,000
post-split) shares of Common Stock to the Company in exchange for
certain patented and unpatented mining claims located in the state of
Idaho.  In March 1998,the Company sold its 35% interest in the Sierra
Mojada project to Grand Central Silver Mines (formerly Centurion) in
exchange for 735,000 shares of stock and a $350,000 promissory note
(see Mexican properties). As a result of the foregoing transactions,
the Company owned 11.89% of the outstanding Common Stock of Grand
Central Silver Mines, Inc., as of September 30, 1998.  In the second
quarter of 1999, the Company exchanged these shares with Pines
International (a non-affiliate) for shares in Summit Silver.

SUBSIDIARIES

     The Company currently has four subsidiaries: Celebration Mining
Company, of which the Company currently is the sole shareholder, was
incorporated in the State of Washington in February 1994; Minera Plata
Real, Mexico, which was incorporated in March 1997 and of which the
Company is the principal shareholder; Minera Plata Real, Argentina,
which was incorporated in March 1997 and of which the Company is the
principal shareholder; and, Minera Plata Real, Chile, which was
incorporated in June 1997 and of which the Company is the principal
shareholder.

REORGANIZATION WITH CELEBRATION.

     In May and June 1995, Management began negotiations with
management of Celebration regarding a merger or other reorganization
plan of the two companies.  On June 28, 1995, the boards of directors
of both companies approved a reorganization and the companies signed an
agreement based on a share exchange.  The Company would acquire 100% of
Celebration's interest in the Vipont Mine Joint Venture, the Crescent
Mine Lease, the Australia Joint Venture, and the option rights to
acquire up to 50% of the mineral rights on the Prospect Mine Property
in Madison County, Montana.

     The Celebration shareholders approved the Reorganization and share
exchange agreement at an August 8, 1995 shareholder meeting.  In
exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding Celebration shares, the
Company agreed to issue to the Celebration shareholders 4,143,750
shares of Company common stock that together would represent ownership
of 63% of Company shareholdings outstanding immediately following the
Reorganization.  Also, the Company agreed to honor all of the stock
rights held by various Celebration shareholders and which were subject
to certain conditions and events.

     Some of those stock rights had been granted contingent upon the
repayment of notes, and others had been granted as options under
consultant agreements.  In total, those stock rights permitted the
purchase or receipt of approximately 1,755,000 additional shares of
Company common stock.  If all of the shares underlying various stock
rights were added to the initial group of 4,143,750 shares exchanged in



<PAGE> 14

the Reorganization, that would result in a total issuance from the
share exchange of approximately 5,898,750 shares, or 71% ownership by
the Celebration shareholders.  However, to date, none of the
overhanging stock rights have been or are expected to be exercised.

     In December 1995, stock rights to receive approximately 190,795
shares were extinguished when the Company converted debt of $570,919 in
principal, plus interest, by issuing common stock.  The noteholders of
that debt amount received approximately 406,050 shares in full
satisfaction of the debt.

ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITION OF MINERAL PROPERTIES.

     On January 10 and January 31, 1992, the Company obtained from
Centurion a total of 23,300 acres of unpatented mining claims, and
state and private mineral leases in exchange for the equivalent of
1,350,000 post-split shares of Company common stock.

UNPATENTED MINING CLAIMS/STATE LEASES.

     In fiscal 1997, the Company allowed to lapse certain Utah state
mineral leases and did not pay the annual maintenance fee on certain
unpatented claims located in the Oquirrh Mountains in Utah due to an
evaluation by the Company that the mineral potential of such property
was low and did not warrant continuing to hold the ground.  The Company
continues to held unpatented claims in Idaho.

                         structure.

FRACTURE                 A break in the rock, the opening of which
                         allows mineral bearing solutions to enter.  A
                         "cross-fracture" is a minor break extending
                         at more-or-less right angles to the direction
                         of the principal fractures.

FREE MILLING             Ores of gold or silver from which the
                         precious metals can be recovered by

                         in a mine; it is customary to work mines from
                         a shaft, establishing levels at regular
                         intervals, generally about 50 meters or more

MILL                     A processing plant that produces a
                         concentrate of the valuable minerals or
                         metals contained in an ore.  The concentrate
                         must then be treated in some other type of
                         plant, such as a smelter, to affect recovery
                         of the pure metal.

                         favorable conditions, a definite crystal
                         form.

MINERALIZED MATERIAL
 OR DEPOSIT              A mineralized body which has been delineated
                         by appropriate drilling and/or underground
                         sampling to support a sufficient tonnage and
                         average grade of metal(s). Under SEC
                         standards, such a deposit does not qualify as
                         a reserve until a comprehensive evaluation,
                         based upon unit cost, grade, recoveries, and
                         other factors, conclude economic feasibility.

                         oxygen that results in a change in the
                         chemical composition of a mineral.

PARTICIPATING
 INTEREST                A company's interest in a mine, which
                         entitles it to a certain percentage of

PATENTED MINING
 CLAIM                   A parcel of land originally located on
                         federal lands as an unpatented mining claim
                         under the General Mining Law, the title of
                         which has been conveyed from the federal
                         government to a private party pursuant to the
                         patenting requirements of the General Mining
                         Law.

PILLAR                   A block of solid ore or other rock left in
                         place to structurally support the shaft,
                         walls or roof of a mine.

PORPHYRY                 Any igneous rock in which relatively large
                         crystals, called phenocrysts, are set in a
                         fine- grained groundness.

PRECAMBRIAN SHIELD       The oldest, most stable regions of the
                         Earth's crust, the largest of which is the
                         Canadian Shield.

PROSPECT                 A mining property, the value of which has not
                         been determined by exploration.

PROVEN AND PROBABLE
 MINERAL RESERVES        Reserves that reflect estimates of the
                         quantities and grades of mineralized material
                         at a mine which the Company believes could be
                         recovered and sold at prices in excess of the
                         cash cost of production.  The estimates are
                         based largely on current costs and on
                         projected prices and demand for such
                         mineralized material.  Mineral reserves are
                         stated separately for each such mine, based
                         upon factors relevant to each mine. Proven
                         and probable mineral reserves are based on
                         calculations of reserves provided by the
                         operator of a property that have been
                         reviewed but not independently confirmed by
                         the Company. Changes in reserves represent
                         general indicators of the results of efforts
                         to develop additional reserves as existing
                         reserves are depleted through production.
                         Grades of ore fed to process may be different
                         from stated reserve grades because of
                         variation in grades in areas mined from time
                         to time, mining dilution and other factors.
                         Reserves should not be interpreted as
                         assurances of mine life or of the
                         profitability of current or future
                         operations.

PROBABLE RESERVES        Resources for which tonnage and grade and/or
                         quality are computed primarily from
                         information similar to that used for proven
                         reserves, but the sites for inspection,
                         sampling and measurement are farther apart or
                         are otherwise less adequately spaced.  The
                         degree of assurance, although lower than that
                         for proven reserves, is high enough to assume
                         continuity between points of observation.

PROVEN RESERVES          Resources for which tonnage is computed from
                         dimensions revealed in outcrops, trenches,
                         workings or drill holes and for which the
                         grade and/or quality is computed from the
                         results of detailed sampling.  The sites for
                         inspection, sampling and measurement are
                         spaced so closely and the geologic character
                         is so well defined that size, shape, depth
                         and mineral content of reserves are well
                         established.  The computed tonnage and grade
                         are judged to be accurate, within limits
                         which are stated, and no such limit is judged
                         to be different from the computed tonnage or
                         grade by more than 20%.

RAISE                    A vertical or inclined underground working

                         exploration activity is completed.

RECOVERY                 The percentage of valuable metal in the ore
                         that is recovered by metallurgical treatment.

REPLACEMENT ORE          Ore formed by a process during which certain
                         minerals have passed into solution and have
                         been carried away, while valuable minerals
                         from the solution have been deposited in the
                         place of those removed.

RESERVES                 That part of a mineral deposit which could be
                         economically and legally extracted or
                         produced at the time of the reserve
                         determination.  Reserves are customarily
                         stated in terms of "Ore" when dealing with
                         metalliferous minerals.

RESOURCE                 The calculated amount of material in a
                         mineral deposit, based on limited drill
                         information.

ITEM 2.  MINERAL PROPERTIES

CHILEAN PROPERTIES

Mocha Copper Porphyry

     The prospect was submitted in early 1997 to the Company through
one of the directors of the Company and a field exam was made by
personnel working in Argentina at the time.  The decision to begin to
acquire and unitize the Mocha District was based on a number of
factors.  More than 50% of a known large porphyry system at Mocha is
covered by Tertiary gravels and ignimbrites (post-mineral cover).  The
best grade primary and oxide copper, noted from surface sampling and
drilling, is on the west side of the prospect just before going under
the post-mineral cover.  On average, the cover is believed to be less
than 200 meters in thickness.  A large north-south trending
aero-magnetic low anomaly west of Mocha has never been tested by
exploratory drilling.  These anomalies are often indicative of major
copper porphyry systems.

     Since 1995, several junior and major mining companies have held
positions and attempted unsuccessfully to make a deal on the claim
group held by the Escala family of Santiago, Chile.  In April 1997, the
Oregon and Chilean Exploration Mining Company, staked 95 "pedimentos"
or exploration claims totaling 28,300 hectares and surrounding the
known Mocha District claims of the Escala Family and Conoco Minerals,
and including the large aeromagnetic low 5-7 kilometers west of Mocha.

     The Company was successful at consolidating the District.
Agreements were signed on June 23, 1997 and July 31, 1997 between
Company and the Escala and Oregon LTDA properties.

     The Company during the 1998 fiscal year expended substantial
effort and financial resources pursing its option on the Mocha Porphyry
Copper project in Northern Chile.  In November 1997, the Company
commenced negotiations with the Teck Corporation of Canada, a mining
company, and in February 1998, a joint venture agreement ("Joint
Venture") was signed.

     Under the terms of the Joint Venture, Teck would have an initial
due diligence period (to July 1998) during which they would complete an
initial geophysical survey and a minimum of 3,000 feet of reverse
circulation drilling.  Once this due diligence period was complete,
Teck could proceed to cover 100% of all expenses through to production
to earn a 60% interest in the project.





<PAGE> 27

     In March 1998, Teck's staff completed a geophysical survey and
proceeded, based upon some positive indications, to commence an initial
drilling program.  Six holes were completed by April 1, 1998 and all
six holes encountered copper mineralization throughout the holes.
However, the ore grades averaged 0.4% Cu, which was less then hoped
for.  Meanwhile, as the date approached for Teck to make their
decision, the world copper price plunged further to a new ten year low.
In mid-July, Teck notified the Company that it would not exercise its
option to proceed.

    Upon receiving Teck's decision, the Board of Directors decided to
return the properties to the underlying owners and depart from Chile.

MEXICAN PROPERTIES

Nayarit Property.

     In November and December 1997, the Company constructed an eight
hole drilling program at its leased Nayarit property located near Ruiz,
Nayarit, Mexico.  The drilling program was designed to delineate
further reserves down-dip on the Frazadas zinc/silver vein, a prolific
mineral structure which had been successfully mined by previous
operators.

     Three of the eight holes intersected mineralized zones of
sufficient width and grade to be economically mined.  Two of the eight
holes failed to reach the projection of the Frazadas vein, and three
holes intersected either low grade zones or voids which possibly
represent areas previously mined by earlier operators.

     Due to lower zinc prices and the inability to raise further
capital to continue the drilling program, the Company opted to return
the property to the underlying owners.

Sierra Mojada Project

     In March 1998, the Company acquired a 35% participating interest
in a large copper-silver-lead-zinc project in Coahuila, Mexico from
Dakota Mining.  The interest was purchased for $100,000 in cash,
200,000 shares of Common Stock and 200,000 shares of Metalline Mining
Common Stock owned by the Company.

     In light of the ongoing financing requirements as a minority
participant, in March 1998, the Company elected to sell its interest to
Grand Central Silver Mines for 735,000 Grand Central common shares and
a promissory note for $350,000 due February 15, 1999.  The transaction
was reported in the Form 10-Q filing for the period ending June 30,
1998.

ARGENTINA PROPERTIES

     The Company held various options on a dozen different mineral
concessions in the La Rioja Province, Argentine.  Due to the difficult
financing climate for exploration projects which prevailed throughout
the 1998 fiscal year, the Directors elected to return the properties to
the owners and withdraw from Argentina.

UNITED STATES PROPERTIES

Crescent Mine

     In February 1995, Celebration Mining Company entered into an
agreement to acquire a mineral lease on the Crescent Mine.  The
Crescent Mine is an underground mine, located in the Coeur d'Alene
Mining District of Shoshone County, Idaho, about five miles east of
Kellogg, Idaho.

     Operations of the Crescent Mine began prior to 1917 and, according
to records available to the Company, approximately 25 million ounces of
silver have been produced from the Crescent Mine.  The mine is not
currently in operation and is flooded to approximately the 1200 foot
level.  The most current ore reserve report that the Company has been
able to obtain was prepared in 1985 by Norman A. Radford, a registered
professional geologist.  That report, based on an assumption that
silver prices would remain below ten dollars ($10) per ounce,
indicated that the Crescent Mine contained 141,000 tons of probable
reserves averaging 31 ounces of silver per ton of mineralized material.
At current prices of under six dollars ($6.00), the Company cannot
assure that any of the mineralization could be mined at a profit.

     Host rocks in the Crescent Mine, in common with the rest of the
District, are members of the Precambrian Belt Super Group.  Within the
Crescent Mine area, three formations are present, in descending order:
Wallace, St. Regis, and Revett.  The most favorable rocks in the
Crescent Mine are the Lower St. Regis and Upper Revett quartzites.
These rocks occur in the Crescent Mine from the 1,200-foot level
downward.

     The Coeur d'Alene "Silver Belt" ore structures are frequently
narrow, fragmented, and sinuous, and have exhibited great vertical
continuity.  For this reason, they have been discovered and mined at
levels deeper than is generally the case in other mining districts.
The ore at the Crescent Mine occurs in thin veins steeply dipping to
the south.  These veins may vary in thickness from several inches to
several feet.  The Alhambra and the Syndicate Faults are major reverse
faults and both are present in the Crescent Mine.

     The Crescent Mine property consists of 12 patented mining claims,
nine unpatented claims, and two Idaho state leases located immediately
adjacent to and west of the world-famous Sunshine Mine owned by
Sunshine Mining Company (SSC-NYSE).  The Sunshine Mine has produced
nearly 400 million ounces of silver since its inception, making it the
most productive primary silver mine in North America.  The major
structural and stratigraphic features which have produced the major ore
deposits in the Sunshine Mine are also present in the Crescent Mine.

     The Crescent is developed to a vertical depth of 5,100 feet by two
vertical shafts.  The majority of past production from the Crescent
Mine occurred in the Revett formation over 1,200 feet of dip between
the 3,100 level and the 4,300 level.  In the mid-1980's, the No. 2
shaft was deepened to the 5,100 level, which opened an additional 800
feet of favorable Revett quartzites for development of the downward
extensions of the East Footwall and Hook veins, which have been the
most productive veins in the Crescent Mine.

<PAGE> 29

     The Company's plans to re-establish significant silver production
from the Crescent Mine will be dependent upon silver prices.
Management estimates that a price of at least $6.00 per ounce would
need to be sustained for a period of six months to justify the capital
investment necessary to de-water the lower workings of the mine and to
rehabilitate the stopes.  At December 9, 1997, the Comex Spot price for
silver was $5.36.

     During the 1996 fiscal year, the Company's field activities at the
Crescent Mine were limited to are unsuccessful attempt to re-open the
#3 level portal.  The portal was filled with unconsolidated glacial
till and it was determined that a much more expensive program will be
required given the bad ground.  Due to the low silver price, no attempt
to dewater the lower mine was contemplated during the 1997 fiscal year.
Any further developments on the Crescent Mine for fiscal 2000 will
depend upon the price of silver, as well as the Company's available
capital and the outcome of the current litigation discussed below.

     In June 1998, the Company sought to clarify a long standing
possible cloud on its Crescent Mine lease resulting from the lessor's
acquisition of the property at a Bankruptcy Court proceeding in 1991.
Through its counsel in June 1998, the Company filed a lawsuit in
Federal Court in Boise, Idaho against the lessor Fawsett
International, Shoshone County and the U. S. Environmental Protection
Agency as defendants.  The Company is seeking a declaratory judgment
from the Court as to the validity of its lease.  Although depositions
and discovery has proceeded, no trial date has been set.

     Counsel has told the Company that its case is strong and
management believes the Company will prevail in this matter.

     At September 30, 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company made
the decision to write off the value of the Company's interest in the
Crescent Mine lease, which was being carried on the Company's books at
$1,294,867.

     A number of factors were considered by the Directors in arriving
at this decision.  First, the lingering depressed price of silver
continues to render the property difficult or impossible to finance,
given the depressed nature of the exploration sector.  Second, the
recent developments in the West Chance area of the Sunshine Mine next
to the Crescent have not been encouraging, making it less likely that
any offers would ever materialize from Sunshine.  Finally, the on-going
litigation initiated by the Company to determine the validity of its
lease, and to possibly seek damages from the lessor is not likely to be
resolved quickly, making it unlikely that the Company would be prepared
to fulfill its work commitment.  See "Litigation."

     As such, in accordance with GAAP rules, the Company has written
down the value of the lease to zero at September 30, 1999.

Conjecture and Liberal King Mines

     In July 1998, the Company sold its interest in the Conjecture and
Liberal King Mines to a third party in exchange for 60,000 shares of
Synfuels Technology stock valued at $480,000.

Vipont Mine

     The Vipont Mine, which is owned by Celebration Mining Company, is
located in the Ashbrook Mining District, a remote area in the extreme
northwestern corner of Box Elder County, Utah, approximately ten miles
east of the Nevada state line and one mile south of the Idaho state
line near the headwaters of the Little Birch Creek.  It is accessible
by asphalt, gravel, and dirt roads.  The mine property consists of 53
patented (deeded) mining claims covering nearly 1,000 acres with a 25%
undivided interest owned by Celebration Mining Company (a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company.)

     The Vipont Mine was at one time one of the foremost silver-
producing mines in the State of Utah.  Its greatest period of activity
was from 1919 through mid-1923 after the passage of the Pittman Silver
Purchase Act ("Pittman Act") which authorized the purchase of
200,000,000 ounces of silver.  The Mine closed in August 1923 with the
expiration of the Pittman Act after producing nearly 1,000,000 ounces
of silver per year.  Some leasing was done in the 1930's and the Mine
was closed in 1942 when Congress passed War Order L-208 closing all
gold and silver mines.  From 1977 through 1987, United Silver Mines
began further development and leached the old mill tailings.

     The mineralization in the Mine occurs predominantly as the mineral
argentite in the Vipont limestone.  Two other units, the Phelan
limestone, and the Sentinel limestone have produced high-grade ore.
Neither the Phelan nor the Sentinel have been seriously explored for
additional ore.

     The mineralization in the Vipont limestone occurs as a continuous
tabular "manto" mineralized body in the crests of folds (crenulations)
superimposed upon a shallowly dipping (22 degrees) syncline.  The
continuity of the mineral down-dip has been shown by past mining
operations and by a line of drill holes below the old workings.  It is
thought by geologists that the mineralization will continue to down-dip
toward an igneous intrusive 4,600 feet southwest of the old mine.

     There are two distinct mineralized deposits on the Vipont
Property: the oxide deposit and the sulfide deposit.  The
characteristics of each are unique and require different approaches to
development and exploration.  According to a 1994 report by Dr. Armond
H. Beers, the oxide deposit contains 1,100,000 tons of mineralized
material grading 6.9 ounces per ton in silver and with a small gold
credit.  The Company has not independently re-verified those findings
and cannot and does not make any assurance as to their accuracy or
compliance with regulatory standards.

     The sulfide deposit is currently defined in the Beers Report as
478,000 tons of mineralized material at an estimated average grade of
13.52 ounces per ton in silver. Geologic interpretation of the
manto-type replacement deposit, however, may establish upon further
exploration that this mineralized resource may be larger.  The
Company's management and professional staff believe that the sulfide
deposits will represent the long-term future of the Vipont Mine.



<PAGE> 31

     During the 1996 fiscal year, the Company elected not to proceed
further with the Vipont joint venture, but as a result of the Company's
successful effort at removing all liens on the property at a Box Elder
County Sheriff's sale, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary now owns
a 25% undivided interest in the property.  The company has no plans to
proceed further with the Vipont until such time as silver prices
improve significantly.

     The Company is also a defendant in a lawsuit filed by Thomas F.
Miller (et al.), in the First Judicial Court in and for Box Elder
County, State of Utah.  The suit, which alleges that the Company failed
to transfer common stock in exchange for a mining interest, asks for
actual and punitive damages.  The Company believes that this lawsuit is
without merit and has filed a countersuit alleging fraudulent
misrepresentation.  The Company is seeking both full title to the
aforementioned mineral property and punitive damages, and believes its
countersuit will prevail.

     In the second fiscal quarter of 1999, the Box Elder County, First
Judicial Court dismissed all of Mr. Miler's claims on a summary judgment
motion and left standing only the Company's counterclaims.  In June
1999, Mr. Miller et al. filed an appeal to the Utah Supreme Court,
which has stayed all further action on the Company's counterclaims.

Coeur d'Alene Syndicate Property.

     In November 1997, the Company sold these 24 patented claims to
Centurion Mines Corporation for 5,000,000 shares of Centurion Common
Stock.  Subsequently, in January 1998, Centurion underwent a 1-for-10
reverse split and changed its name to Grand Central Silver Mines, Inc.

Shoshone County Claims

     The Company continues to hold nine unpatented mining claims in
Shoshone County, Idaho which lie immediately adjacent to the holdings
of Sterling Mining Company just south of the Galena Mine, which is
owned and operated by Silver Valley Resources.

Utah Properties and Royalty Interests.

     The Company is not currently involved in active exploration with
respect to any of the property holdings or royalty interests within the
Utah Gold Belt. During Fiscal 1997, the Company engaged an independent
geologist to evaluate the mineral potential of the Company's holdings.
Based upon his recommendations, the company dropped some property and
has retained only claims and leases which are subject to a royalty from
Kennecott Copper.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     The Officers and Directors of the Company certify that to the best
of  their knowledge, neither the Company nor any of its Officers and
Directors are parties to any legal proceeding or litigation.  Further,
the Officers and Directors know of no threatened or contemplated legal
proceedings or litigation with the exception of the following:

     (1) The Company was a defendant in a lawsuit filed by some of its
shareholders for alleged violations of securities laws.  The suit was
filed in the U.S. District Court in Denver on January 22, 1998 with
Rounds et al. as plaintiffs vs. Royal Silver Mines, Inc. et al as
defendants.  Plaintiffs sought damages and attorneys' fees in the
lawsuit, which alleged that defendants made false/misleading statements
and omitted material disclosures in connection with public trading of
Royal's common stock during the period May 1996 through August 1997.
On September 2, 1999 the plaintiffs and defendants settled the action
on the following terms:

     1.   To pay $60,000 in cash on the date of closing, which is
          scheduled for no later than October 4, 1999.

     2.   To cancel a note of $50,000 which is owed by Norman Rounds to
          Crosby Enterprises.

     3.   To pay to plaintiffs on September 7, 1999, the number of
          shares of Metalline stock, based upon Schwab closing price as
          of September 2, 1999, which equals $80,000. This payment
          shall be made by delivering the shares to Idaho Stock
          Transfer to hold these shares in escrow to be released to
          plaintiffs and to Mr. Rounds, as Mr. Rounds designates, in
          the amount of 5,000 shares every thirty days, beginning with
          the first 5,000 shares to be delivered September 7, 1999. Mr.
          Rounds and/or plaintiffs will be limited in their ability to
          sell the shares of stock as follows:

          (a)  Plaintiffs and Mr. Rounds shall be able to sell no more
               than 5000 shares of stock total per month so long as the
               stock is trading at less than $4.50 per share.

          (b)  Whenever the stock closes at over $4.50 per share Schwab
               NAV closing price for five consecutive trading days, the
               transfer agent will be authorized to release to
               plaintiff all remaining shares.

On October 8, 1999, the trial court issued an order dismissing the
case.

     (2)  The Company is also a defendant in a lawsuit filed by Thomas
F. Miller (et al.), in the First Judicial Court in and for Box Elder
County, State of Utah.  The suit, which alleges that the Company failed
to transfer common stock in exchange for a mining interest, asks for
actual and punitive damages.  The Company believes that this lawsuit is
without merit and has filed a countersuit alleging fraudulent
misrepresentation.  The Company is seeking both full title to the
aforementioned mineral property and punitive damages, and believes its

countersuit will prevail.  In the second fiscal quarter of 1999, the
Box Elder County, First Judicial Court dismissed all of Mr. Miller's
claims on a summary judgment motion, and left standing only the
Company's counterclaims.  In June 1999, Mr. Miller et al. filed an
appeal to the Utah Supreme Court, which stayed all further actions on
our counterclaims.

     (3)  In July 1998, the Company filed an action in federal court in
Boise, Idaho for declaratory judgment regarding the validity of its
Crescent Mine mineral lease. Defendants in the action include the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, Shoshone County, and Fawcett
International.  Management believes that there is a good likelihood of
prevailing in this matter.

     None of the Officers and Directors have been convicted of a felony
or none have been convicted of any criminal offense, felony and
misdemeanor relating to securities or performance in corporate office.
To the best of the knowledge of the Officers and Directors, no
investigations of felonies, misfeasance in office or securities
investigations are either pending or threatened at the present time.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
         AND RESULTS OF OPERATION


FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.

     There is considerable risk in any mining venture, and there can be
no assurance that the Company's operations will be successful or
profitable.  Exploration for commercially mineable ore deposits is
highly speculative and involves risks greater than those involved in
the discovery of mineralization.  Mining companies use the evaluation
work of professional geologists, geophysicists, and engineers in
determining whether to acquire an interest in a specific property, or
whether or not to commence exploration or development work.  These
estimates are not always scientifically exact, and in some instances
result in the expenditure of substantial amount of money on a property
before it is possible to make a final determination as to whether or
not the property contains economically minable ore bodies.  The
economic viability of a property cannot be finally determined until
extensive exploration and development work, plus a detailed economic
feasibility study, has been performed.  Also, the market prices for
mineralization produced are subject to fluctuation and uncertainty,
which may negatively affect the economic viability of properties on
which expenditures have been made.  During the development stage of the
Company, from inception to September 30, 1999, the Company accumulated
a deficit of $10,457,146.

     At September 30, 1999, $950,794 of the Company's total assets of
$1,296,126 were investments in mineral properties.  Additional
exploration is required to substantiate or determine whether these
mineral properties contain ore reserves that are economically
recoverable.  The realization of these investments is dependent upon
the success of future property sales, the existence of economically
recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain financing,
the Company's success in carrying out its present plans or making other
arrangements for development, and upon future profitable production.
The ultimate outcome of these investments cannot be determined at this
time; accordingly, no provision for any asset impairment that may
result, in the event the Company is not successful in developing or
selling these properties, has been made in the Company's financial
statements.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.

     The Company currently has no revenues but, as explained above, has
an accumulated deficit.  Because of its recurring losses from
operations, the Company cannot assure that it will be able to fully
carry out its plans as budgeted without additional operating capital.
At September 30, 1999, the Company had negative working capital of
$93,456.  This amount represents severe deterioration from the positive
working capital of $303,600 at September 30, 1998 and of $671,355 at
September 30, 1997.  In the year ending September 30, 1999, the
Company's working capital has decreased by $397,056 primarily because
of decreased cash received by the Company from its sales of common
stock.  During the same twelve-month period, the Company's cash
increased from $3,147 to $28,147 while the Company's notes receivable

<PAGE> 36

and investments both decreased very substantially.  Due to the
foregoing conditions, the Company's independent certified public
accountants included a paragraph in the Company's financial statements
relative to a going concern uncertainty.

     In fiscal year 1999, the Company's current liabilities increased
by $52,788 primarily due to a build up of  accrued advances from
related parties and accounts payable from the September 30, 1998 level.
The Company's current liabilities of $121,603 at September 30, 1999
represent an unfavorable increase from the Company's current
liabilities of $68,815 at September 30, 1998.  The Company has no long-
term debt.

     The Company has estimated that it will need minimal capital
resources of approximately $20,000 per month to meet its estimated
expenditures for fiscal year 2000.  During the last three years,
management met with experienced financial and investment firms
throughout Europe and North America and negotiated arrangements for
capital fund raising.  During the fiscal year ending September 30,
1997, the Company raised $1,843,750 in funds primarily through the
private placement of shares and warrants.  In fiscal 1998, the Company
raised $299,499 in cash and $700,000 in notes, primarily through the
private placement of shares.  In fiscal 1999, consistent with the
depressed market for metals prices, the Company raised only $158,200
from sales of its common stock.  The Company is continuing with the
previously described negotiations and various alternatives to raise
capital.

     Inasmuch as the Company has not yet determined in detail the
specifications of the project, operation or mining activity that it
intends to undertake, management is not able at this time to provide a
detailed listing or exact range of operation costs, including increases
in general and administrative expense, if any.  However, the Company
plans to fund any increases in general and administrative expense
principally from joint venture revenues or private placement funds.
Financing for the Company's exploration and development of mineral
properties is expected to come primarily from the contributions of its
joint venture participants and from the funds generated from such joint
ventures and other lease or royalty arrangements.

     The Company consistently has made full and timely payment of its
expenses, in particular to the various governmental payees it interacts
with, and has met its obligations to the entities which provide its
personnel, office space, and equipment needs.  The Company currently is
seeking alternate sources of working capital sufficient to increase the
funding of additional general and administrative expenses that may
become necessary as the Company's business plan develops, and to
continue meeting its ongoing payment obligations for its leases to
governmental entities.







<PAGE> 37
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
COMPARISON OF THE YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 1999,
RESPECTIVELY.

     General and administrative expenses decreased from $616,600 during
fiscal 1998 to $286,046 during fiscal 1999.  This decrease is
principally due to decreased salaries and a decrease in the cost of
fundraising associated with the Company's private placements of its
stock.  Also, during the twelve months of fiscal 1998, the Company
incurred officers/directors compensation of $117,652 while such
compensation expenses were reduced to $41,500 in the twelve months of
fiscal 1999.  As a principal result of the Company's cost reduction
efforts in fundraising and compensation, total expenses of $1,063,715
for fiscal 1998 decreased to $355,258 (total expenses) in fiscal 1999.

     In fiscal 1998, the Company sold some patented mining properties
for common stock and also sold a working interest in a minerals
exploration joint venture in exchange for stock and a promissory note.
These two transactions resulted in gains of $1,860,312 in fiscal 1998.
There were no comparable transactions in 1999.

     In the last quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company elected to
withdraw from most of its foreign mineral concessions and accordingly
recorded losses of $592,065 by writing off its exploration properties
in Chile, Argentina and Mexico.  In the same quarter, the Company
elected to sell  its Conjecture Mine in Washington State and incurred
a loss of $830,700 on this disposition.

     Also in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998, the value of the
Company's common stock investment in Grand Central Silver Mines, Inc.
dropped significantly and the Company posted a loss of $1,997,812 on
the decreased value of its mineral property investments.

     In the second and third quarters of fiscal 1999, the Company
entered in a settlement arrangement with Grand Central Silver Mines,
Inc. wherein the effect of the transaction was to create an aggregate
loss of $1,057,581 from the related asset disposition.  In the fourth
quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company elected to abandon its interest in
the Crescent Mine Idaho lease.  The net effect of this abandonment was
to record a loss of $1,294,867.

     The Company is unable to fully determine the impact of future
transactions on its operating capital.  Hence, the Company has
determined not to incur and does not have any commitments or plans for
material capital expenditures in the near future for which it does not
have a reasonably available source of payment.  It is uncertain what
effect this decision may have with respect to restricting capital
expenditures.

The Board of Directors
Royal Silver Mines, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
Spokane, Washington

                    INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Royal Silver Mines,
Inc. (a development stage company) as of September 30, 1999 and 1998,
and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and
cash flows for the years then ended, and from inception on February 17,
1994 through September 30, 1999.  These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Royal
Silver Mines, Inc. as of September 30, 1999 and 1998, and the results
of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended and
from inception on February 17, 1994 through September 30, 1999 in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that
the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 20
to the financial statements, the Company's significant operating losses
raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going
concern.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that
might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

                      ROYAL SILVER MINES, INC.
                   (A Development Stage Company)
                 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                    September 30, 1999 and 1998

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Royal Silver Mines, Inc. (Royal) was incorporated in April of 1969
under the laws of the state of Utah primarily for the purpose of
acquiring and developing mineral properties.  Royal conducts its
business as a "junior" natural resource company, meaning that it
intends to receive income from property sales or joint ventures with
larger companies.

Celebration Mining Company (Celebration), currently a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Royal, was incorporated for the purpose of identifying,
acquiring, exploring and developing mining properties.  Celebration was
organized on February 17, 1994 as a Washington corporation.
Celebration has not yet realized any revenues from its planned
operations.

On August 8, 1995, Royal and Celebration completed an agreement and
plan of reorganization whereby the Company issued 4,143,750 shares of
its common stock and 1,455,000 warrants in exchange for all of the
outstanding common stock of Celebration.  Pursuant to the
reorganization, the name of the Company was changed to Royal Silver
Mines, Inc.  Immediately prior to the agreement and plan of
reorganization, the Company had 2,375,463 common shares issued and
outstanding.

The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase by Celebration of
Royal, because the shareholders of Celebration controlled the Company
after the acquisition.  Therefore, Celebration is treated as the
acquiring entity.  There was no adjustment to the carrying value of the
assets or liabilities of Royal in the exchange as the market value
approximated the net carrying value.  Royal is the acquiring entity for
legal purposes and Celebration is the surviving entity for accounting
purposes.

The $950,794 cost of mineral properties included in the accompanying
balance sheet as of September 30, 1999 is related to exploration
properties.  The Company has not determined whether the exploration
properties contain ore reserves that are economically recoverable.  The
ultimate realization of the Company's investment in exploration
properties is dependent upon the success of future property sales, the
existence of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the
company to obtain financing or make other arrangements for development
and upon future profitable production.  The ultimate realization of the
Company's investment in exploration properties cannot be determined at
this time and, accordingly, no provision for any asset impairment that
may result, in the event the Company is not successful in developing or
selling these properties, has been made in the accompanying financial
statements.

                   (A Development Stage Company)
                 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     September 30, 1999 and 1998
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (Continued)

The Company is seeking additional capital and management believes the
properties can ultimately be sold or developed to enable the Company to
continue its operations.  However, there are inherent uncertainties in
mining operations and management cannot provide assurances that it will
be successful in this endeavor.  Furthermore, the Company is in the
development stage, as it has not realized any significant revenues from
its planned operations.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This summary of significant accounting policies of Royal Silver Mines,
Inc. is presented to assist in understanding the Company's financial
statements.  The financial statements and notes are representations of
the Company's management, which is responsible for their integrity and
objectivity.  These accounting policies conform to generally accepted
accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the
preparation of the financial statements.

Accounting Method
The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method
of accounting.

Development Stage
The company is in the development stage and has not commenced the sale
of any products.

Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ
from those estimates.

Loss Per Share
Loss per share was computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted
average number of shares outstanding during the year.  The weighted
average number of shares was calculated by taking the number of shares
outstanding and weighting them by the amount of time they were
outstanding.  Outstanding warrants were not included in the computation
of loss per share because the exercise price of the outstanding
warrants is higher than the market price of the stock, thereby causing
the warrants to be antidilutive.

                 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     September 30, 1999 and 1998
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of
three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Mineral Properties
Costs of acquiring, exploring and developing mineral properties are
capitalized by project area.  Costs to maintain the mineral rights and
leases are expensed as incurred.  When a property reaches the
production state, the related capitalized costs will be amortized,
using the units of production method on the basis of periodic estimates
of ore reserves.

Mineral properties are periodically assessed for impairment of value
and any losses are charged to operations at the time of impairment.

Should a property be abandoned, its capitalized costs are charged to
operations.  The Company charges to operations the allocable portion of
capitalized costs attributable to properties sold.  Capitalized costs
are allocated to properties sold based on the proportion of claims sold
to the claims remaining within the project area.

Provision For Taxes
At September 30, 1999, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards
of approximately $10,100,000 that may be offset against future taxable
income through 2014.  No tax benefit has been reported in the financial
statements as the Company believes there is a significant chance the
net operating loss carryforwards will expire unused.  Accordingly, the
potential tax benefits of the net operating loss carryforwards are
offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.

Impaired Asset Policy
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a
statement titled "Accounting for Impairment of Long-lived Assets."  In
complying with this standard, the Company reviews its long-lived assets
quarterly to determine if any events or changes in circumstances have
transpired which indicate that the carrying value of its assets may not
be recoverable.  Because of write-downs and write-offs taken throughout
fiscal 1998 and fiscal 1999, the Company does not believe any further
adjustments are needed to the carrying value of its assets at September
30, 1999.

Financial Accounting Standards
The Company has adopted the fair value accounting rules to record all
transactions in equity instruments for goods or services.

                     September 30, 1999 and 1998
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Principles of Consolidation
The financial statements include those of Royal Silver Mines, Inc. and
Celebration Mining Company.  All significant inter-company accounts and
transactions have been eliminated.  The financial statements are not
considered consolidated statements since Royal Silver Mines, Inc. was
the successor by merger to Celebration Mining Company.

Change in Accounting Policies
During the year ended September 30, 1999, the Company changed its
method of accounting for organization costs to conform to the
requirements of Statement on Position 98-5, which requires start-up and
organization costs to be expensed as incurred.  The effect of the
change was to increase net loss for the year ended September 30, 1999
by $3,502 ($0.0002 per share).  The change has no effect on prior
years.

NOTE 3 - MINERAL PROPERTIES

Utah Mining Property Joint Venture
In October 1994, Celebration and United Silver Mine, Inc., (United)
entered into a joint venture agreement, whereby Celebration could
acquire up to an 80% interest in a mining property located in the State
of Utah.  Under the terms of the agreement, United was to contribute
real properties for an initial 75% interest in the joint venture, and
Celebration was to remove all liens associated with the real properties
by paying $175,000 to a bank which was the primary lien holder for its
initial 25% interest in the venture.

Celebration expended $175,000 to purchase the aforementioned promissory
note.  The property was auctioned in a public auction in May 1995 and
by virtue of Celebration's first position lien, Celebration was able to
successfully bid the full amount of the underlying promissory note.
Although additional expenditures have been made on the property through
September 30, 1998, no further funds towards the joint venture have
been expended by Celebration, which owns an undivided 25% interest in
the property.

Washington and Idaho Mineral Properties
During the year ended September 30, 1995, Celebration purchased,
through the issuance of 800,000 shares of its common stock, various
mineral properties located in the states of Washington and Idaho.  The
mineral properties were recorded at the fair market value of the shares
paid on the date of issuance ranging from $3.13 to $3.25 per share for
a total purchase price of $2,538,126.  In May 1996, the Company sold
back the Frisco Standard Silver Mine to its original seller in exchange
for the same price (35,000 shares of Royal stock) received by the
seller when the mine was purchased.  The shares received were canceled
and no gain or loss was recorded on the transaction.  In the fourth
quarter of 1998, the Company disposed of additional Idaho properties.
(See Note 4).

NOTE 3 - MINERAL PROPERTIES (Continued)

Other Domestic Properties
In February 1999 in connection with the settlement agreement with Grand
Central (described in Note 18), the Company received a number of
patented mining claims in Utah and a number of unpatented mining claims
in Idaho.  In aggregate, these mining claims were recorded at $45,000.

                              *  *  *

The Company's proposed future mining activities will be subject to laws
and regulations controlling not only the exploration and mining of
mineral properties, but also the effect of such activities on the
environment.  Compliance with such laws and regulations may necessitate
additional capital outlays, affect the economics of a project, and
cause changes or delays in the Company's activities.  The Company's
mineral properties are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable
value.

NOTE 4 - MINERAL PROPERTY DISPOSITIONS

Shoshone County Idaho Mineral Lease (Crescent Mine)
In February 1995, Celebration entered into an agreement to acquire a
fifty-year renewable mineral lease on a property in Shoshone County,
Idaho.  The mining property consists of twelve patented claims and
associated Idaho unpatented claims.  In connection with this lease, the
Company has incurred acquisition costs of $1,294,867.  During the
fourth quarter of 1999, the Company's board of directors evaluated its
mineral holdings and elected to write off its interest in this property
and, accordingly, recorded a loss on abandonment equivalent to its cost
of acquisition.  (See Note 15 on litigation regarding this lease.)

Chilean Properties
During 1997, the Company acquired options on a minerals concession and
adjacent property in northern Chile.  During the third quarter of
fiscal 1998, following a decision by Teck Exploration Ltd. not to
pursue its joint venture option, the Company elected to drop its
options on the Chilean properties and recorded a loss of $403,530 on
its Chilean investments.

Argentina Properties
On February 10, 1997 the Company negotiated an option to buy 12
different potential mine sites in Argentina.  During the second quarter

the Conjecture Mine property for 10,000 shares of common stock in
SynFuels Technology, Inc., (subsequently renamed Rigid Airship) valued
at $8.00 per share.  This transaction resulted in a recorded loss on
disposition of $830,700.

NOTE 8 - COMMON STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

In January 1992, the shareholders of Royal approved a 1992 Stock Option
and Stock Award Plan under which up to ten percent of the issued and
outstanding shares of the Company's common stock could be awarded based
on merit of work performed.  As of September 30, 1999, 12,750 shares of
common stock have been awarded under the Plan.

Celebration, prior to the exchange agreement with Royal, had granted
securities to certain shareholders, which represented rights to
purchase or receive shares of Celebration's common stock.  These options
were assumed by the Company after the merger at a rate of 1.5 shares
for each option still outstanding.  Thus, the Company has granted
options, with varying conditions and requirements, to purchase a total
of 1,455,000 shares of its common stock.  Of these stock options
255,000 exercisable at $1.50 per share will expire March 21, 2000.  The
remaining 1,200,000 stock options are exercisable at $0.93 per share
and expire on August 31, 2001.  As of September 30, 1999, none of these
options have been exercised.

On January 9, 1996, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of
warrants to two of its officers to purchase a total of 300,000 shares
for a purchase price of $2.50 per share, exercisable from the date of
issuance until January 9, 1999. As of September 30, 1999 none of these
warrants have been exercised.

On March 22, 1996, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of
warrants to purchase 625,000 shares of common stock of the Company to
an investor in partial completion of a private placement of stock.
These warrants were exercisable until September 30, 1998, at which time
they expired unused.

On April 10, 1996, following the close of the second quarter of fiscal
1996, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 420,666
warrants to unaffiliated investors as part of the private placement of
stock.  These warrants were exercisable until April 12, 1998 at prices
ranging  from $2.50 to $2.625 per share.  As of March 31, 1998, 320,666
warrants have been issued (but not exercised) for a total amount of
$46,568, with the balance of 100,000 warrants expiring unused.

In the quarter ending March 31, 1997, the Company sold 2,491,000
"units" to unaffiliated investors as part of a private placement of
stock.  Each unit consisted of a share of the Company's common stock and
one warrant enabling the investor to purchase one additional share of
common stock for a purchase price of $1.25 per share during the next
two years.  At September 30, 1999, none of the warrants had been
exercised.

NOTE 9 - COMPANY STOCK OPTION AND AWARD PLAN

The Company has a stock-based compensation plan whereby the Company's
board of directors may grant common stock to its employees and
directors.  At September 30, 1999, 1,455,000 options have been granted
under the plan although none have been exercised or forfeited in the
two years ending September 30, 1999.  The old existing options are
attributed to the merger of Celebration mining Company with Royal in
August 1995.

Of the total of 2,500,000 common stock shares authorized for issuance
under the plan, 179,000 shares at values ranging from $0.34 to $0.91
per share were issued to employees and directors during the twelve
months ended September 30, 1998 and 1,259,000 shares at values ranging
from $0.04 to $0.07 per share were issued to employees and directors
during the twelve months ended September 30, 1999.

NOTE 11 - OPTIONS INVOLVING MINERAL PROPERTIES

Option with Placer Mining
In April 1996, the Company entered into an option with Placer Mining
Corporation ("Placer") of Kellogg, Idaho whereby the Company could
acquire a joint venture interest in the Bunker Hill Mine, a silver-
lead-zinc mine in Shoshone County, Idaho.  After issuing 100,000 shares
valued at $1.50 per share and spending a nonrefundable $50,000 on the
option, the Company elected to renegotiate this option agreement and
entered into a second option agreement with Placer on September 18,
1996 for the nonassignable option of acquiring a 100% interest in the
Bunker Hill Mine.  In the second agreement, the Company paid $100,000
in September 1996 for the nonassignable option of acquiring a 100%
interest in the Bunker Hill Mine.  In order to exercise this option,
the Company must issue 500,000 shares of its common stock to Placer by
May 10, 1997 and pay Placer either $7,000,000 by that date or
$4,000,000 by that date and $3,500,000 by May 10, 1998.  Under the
terms of this agreement, the Company will pay Placer a 2% net smelter
return royalty in perpetuity with stipulated annual advance minimum
royalty payments to Placer ranging from $100,000 (in 1999) to $250,000
(in year 2002 through 2010).  All advance minimum royalties paid are to
be credited against actual production royalties.

Subsequent to March 31, 1997, due to regional environmental concerns
and the prospect of related litigation, the Company concluded that it
would not exercise its option on the Bunker Hill Mine.  Accordingly,
the $238,887 in option costs and related expenses toward the purchase
of this property were written off during the quarter ended March 31,
1997.

NOTE 12 - STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT WITH CENTURION MINES CORPORATION

In September 1996, the Company executed an agreement with Centurion
Mines Corporation ("Centurion") whereby the Company acquired an option
from Centurion to purchase up to 800,000 shares of its common stock
held by Centurion for the exercise price of $1.75 per share during the
two-year period ending September 30, 1998.  The cost of this two-year
stock purchase option was $50,000 which was paid by the Company and
charged to stockholders' equity (accumulated deficit).

Effective April 15, 1997, the aforementioned stock option agreement was
renegotiated (at no cost to the Company) and amended to extend the

NOTE 13 - LETTER OF INTENT WITH TECK EXPLORATION LTD.

In October 1997, the Company signed a letter of intent with Teck
Corporation (dba Teck Exploration, Ltd.) of Vancouver, B.C. to jointly
explore and develop the Mocha porphyry copper prospect in Region I of
northern Chile.  The agreement contemplated an initial drilling program
funded by Teck.  In July 1998, the Company and Teck mutually agreed to
terminate their option agreement.  (See Note 4 for related disclosures
on Chilean options.)
NOTE 14 - PROSPECTIVE COMBINATION (MERGER) WITH CENTURION MINES
CORPORATION

On November 24, 1997, Royal and Centurion Mines Corporation,
headquartered in Salt Lake City, announced plans to combine the two
companies.  Centurion (subsequently renamed Grand Central Silver Mines,
Inc.) is a significant owner of gold, silver, and copper mining
properties in Utah.

As a first stage in the combination of the companies, Centurion
purchased certain Coeur d'Alene, Idaho silver properties plus other
patented mining properties owned by Royal in exchange for Centurion
shares then valued at $1,500,000.  (See Note 6).

As a result of differences in determining fair valuations, the
directors of the two companies have decided to postpone merger plans
for the foreseeable future.  The two companies shared one common
director and a common officer until February 1999, at which time mutual
differences changed this arrangement.  (See Note 18).

NOTE 15 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is a defendant in a lawsuit alleging that the Company
failed to transfer common stock in exchange for a mining property
interest.  In June 1999, Box Elder County Superior Court rejected the
plaintiff's lawsuit and let stand the Company's countersuit alleging
fraudulent misrepresentation.  Although the plaintiff has filed an
appeal (regarding the originally filed lawsuit) with the Utah Supreme
Court, the Company believes that the appeal is completely without merit
and will not be sustained.  In its countersuit, the Company is seeking
both full title to the aforementioned mineral property and punitive
damages.  The Company believes its countersuit will prevail.

                     September 30, 1999 and 1998
NOTE 15 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In July 1998, the Company filed an action in Federal Court in Boise,
Idaho for declaratory judgment regarding the validity of its Crescent
Mine mineral lease.  Defendants in the action include the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, Shoshone County, and Fawcett
International.  Although the Company has recently decided to write down
its interest in the Crescent Mine mineral lease, the Company has
elected to pursue this lawsuit, which is in the discovery phase.

The Company sublets office space on a month to month basis from one of
its officers in Coeur d'Alene Idaho for $200 per month.  Total rent paid
for this office space in 1999 was $1800.

NOTE 16 - WORKING INTEREST IN JOINT VENTURE WITH METALLINE MINING CO.

On January 15, 1998, the Company acquired a 35% working interest in a
joint venture with Metalline Mining Co. for exploration and development
of the Sierra Mojada District, Coahuila, Mexico.  The project was
formerly a joint venture between Metalline and Dakota Mining Corp.
Royal acquired the interest from Dakota in exchange for $100,000 cash,
200,000 shares of Metalline common stock, which Royal carried on its
books as an investment, and 200,000 shares of Royal Silver common
stock.  Dakota retained a net smelter return royalty on future
production from the project.  (See Note 6).

On February 19, 1998, the Company sold the 35% working interest for
exploration and development of the Sierra Mojada District, Coahuila,
Mexico to Grand Central Silver Mines (GSLM) in exchange for a note
receivable of $350,000, payable within one year and bearing interest of
8% per annum, and 735,000 shares of GSLM valued at $1,424,062.  (See
Note 4).  A total gain of $1,454,062 was recognized on this
transaction.

NOTE 17 - NOTES RECEIVABLE

At September 30, 1998, the Company's note receivable consisted of a
$350,000 receivable from Grand Central Silver Mines, Inc.  This note,
which bears interest at 8% and is uncollateralized, was exchanged for
equipment and mining claims in February 1999.  (See Note 18).

                     September 30, 1999 and 1998
NOTE 18   SETTLEMENT AGREEMENTS

In February 1999, the Company entered into a settlement arrangement
wherein Grand Central Silver Mines, Inc. (hereinafter "Grand")
transferred equipment, mining claims, and securities (including 450,000
shares of Royal Silver Mines, Inc. stock) to Royal in full settlement
of the $350,000 promissory note (and accrued interest) owed by Grand to
Royal.  In connection with the same transaction, the Company
transferred to an individual 154,375 shares of Grand common stock
(previously held by Royal) and in turn received from this same
individual 1,000,000 shares of Royal Silver Mines, Inc. common stock
and 333,333 shares of Summit Silver, Inc. common stock.  While this
settlement agreement involved mutual releases of liability for all
parties affected, the net effect of the settlement was the Company's
recording a loss of $247,112 from assets disposed in the second quarter
and $810,469 in the third quarter as this transaction was finalized.
(See Note 6, Note 14, and Note 17).

The Company was a defendant in a lawsuit filed by some of its
shareholders for alleged financial improprieties.  Although the
directors of the Company vigorously disputed the plaintiffs' claims, the
directors elected to settle this matter out of court in September 1999
after receiving advice from counsel that the costs of defending the
litigation would exceed the costs of settling out of court.  In the
resulting settlement, the Company agreed to pay the plaintiffs $60,000
in cash and two Company officers agreed to transfer personally owned
investments to the plaintiffs.  Accordingly, in turn, the Company
indemnified the aforementioned corporate officers by transferring to
them stock in Summit Silver Mines, Inc. and a mineral property interest
in the Imperial Mine.  The transaction resulted in a charge to
operations of $103,950.

NOTE 19   LICENSING AGREEMENT

In January 1999, the Company entered into a technology licensing
agreement with Integrated Environmental Technologies, LLC (IET), a New
York limited liability company, to acquire, develop and exploit mineral
deposits using IET technology.  IET technology involves high
temperature systems that utilize plasma technology for processing
materials and includes trade secrets, inventions, (whether patented or
unpatented), information, data and experience.  Upon completion of
agreed upon conditions, the Company will be granted a worldwide
exclusive license to practice IET technologies necessary for the
extraction and recovery of copper from enargite ores and gold and
silver from arsenic rich ores or residual process streams from milling
and smelting operations not to include certain properties in and around
the Yuma, Arizona region.  At September 30, 1999, the Company was in
the process of renegotiating the terms and conditions of the licensing
agreement.

                 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     September 30, 1999 and 1998
NOTE 20 - GOING CONCERN

As shown in the accompanying financial statement, the Company has no
revenues, has incurred a net loss of $2,991,050 for the year ending
September 30, 1999 and an accumulated deficit of $10,457,146 since
inception.  These factors indicate that the Company may be unable to
continue in existence.  The financial statements do not include any
adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of
recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that
might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in
existence.

The Company's management has strong beliefs that significant and
imminent private placements will generate sufficient cash for the
Company to operate for the next few years.  The Company also believes
that the occasional sale of its equity investments will provide cash as
needed for operations.

NOTE 21   RELATED PARTIES

At September 30, 1999, the Company was indebted to two of its officers
for the sum of $44,000.  These funds were advanced to the Company in
September 1999 for payment of operating expenses.  The advances are
unsecured, non-interest bearing, and are expected to be repaid in the
next few months.

Other related party transactions are disclosed in Notes 15 and 18.

NOTE 22   YEAR 2000 ISSUES

Like other companies, Royal Silver Mines, Inc. could be adversely
affected if the computer systems the Company, its suppliers or
customers use do not properly process and calculate date-related
information and data from the period surrounding and including January
1, 2000.  This is commonly known as the "Year 2000" issue.
Additionally, this issue could impact non-computer systems and devices
such as production equipment and elevators, etc.  At this time, because
of the complexities involved in the issue, management cannot provide
assurance that the Year 2000 issue will not have an impact on the
Company's operations.  Any costs associated with Year 2000 compliance
are expensed when incurred.

Executive Officer, and to the other four most highly compensated
officers and executive officers, but only if the total annual salary

     balance in Common Stock.

[2]  All compensation paid during 1999 was taken in shares of the
     Company, or shares in two dormant subsidiary corporations, Summit
     Silver and Tintic Corporation, or equipment.

     officer.

Other than the Company's Stock Option and Award Plan, there are no
retirement, pension, or profit sharing plans for the benefit of the
Company's officers and directors.

Option/SAR Grants.

     No individual grants of stock options, whether or not in tandem
with stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), and freestanding SARs were
made during Fiscal 1999 to the CEO or any Executive Officer.

     No stock options were exercised by the CEO or any executive
officers in Fiscal 1999.






<PAGE> 77

Long-Term Incentive Plan Awards.

     The Company does not have any formalized long-term incentive plan
(excluding restricted stock, stock option and SAR plans) that provides
compensation intended to serve as incentive for performance to occur
over a period longer than one fiscal year, whether such performance is
measured by reference to financial performance of the Company or an
affiliate, the Company's stock price, or any other measure.

Compensation of Directors.

     Directors receive for their services a retainer fee payable in
shares of the Company's Common Stock, currently at the rate of 2,500
shares per quarter of completed service.  During Fiscal 1999, no shares
were awarded to directors as compensation.  The Board has not
implemented a plan to award options, authorized under the Company's
Stock Option and Award Plan and none have been granted.  There are no
contractual arrangements with any member of the Board of Directors.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation.

     There are no compensation committee interlocks.   With respect to
insider participation, Howard Crosby, John Ryan, Ronald Kitching and
Kevin Stulp, participated in deliberations of the Company's Board of
Directors during Fiscal 1999, concerning executive officer
compensation.

Board of Directors Report on Executive Compensation.

     The following is a summary of the Board of Directors Report:

     It is the Board's responsibility to review and set compensation
levels of the executive officers of the Company, evaluate the
performance of management and consider management appointments and
related matters.  All decisions are decisions of the full Board.  The
Board considers the performance of the Company and how compensation
paid by the Company compares to compensation generally in the mining
industry and among similar companies.  In establishing executive
compensation, the Board bases its decisions, in part, on achievement
and performance regarding broad-based objectives and targets relating
to the continued acquisition of favorable silver properties and the
progress of exploration and development of such properties, as well as
the Company's financial performance.

     For Fiscal 1999, the Company's executive compensation policy
consisted of two elements: base salary and stock awards.  The policy
factors which determine the setting of these compensation elements are
largely aimed at attracting and retaining executives considered
essential to the Company's long-term success.  The granting of stock is
designed as an incentive for executives to keep management's interests
in close alignment with the interests of shareholders.  The Company's
executive compensation policy seeks to engender committed leadership to
favorably posture the Company for continued growth, stability and
strength of shareholder equity.




<PAGE> 78
     The Company paid salaries to its officers for the fiscal year-
ended September 30, 1999, as follows:

     Name of Officer      Position                    Salary
     Howard Crosby        President                   $45,000 yearly
     John Ryan            Vice President of            42,000 yearly
                          Corporate Development

     These amounts were approved by the Board in recognition of the
work and efforts prior to the end of fiscal 1999.

     With respect to stock awards during fiscal 1999, the Board of
Directors did not change the amount of shares, 2,500 per quarter, which
each directors is entitled to receive as partial compensation for
service to the Company.

     The Board believes that executive compensation during fiscal 1999
substantially reflects the Company's compensation policy and the Board
anticipates paying a like sum during the fiscal year ending September
30, 2000.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

ITEM 13.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Relationships and Transactions pertaining to the Company and
Celebration.

     Certain of the directors and/or officers of the Company also serve
as directors and/or officers of other companies involved in natural
resource exploration and development and, consequently, there exists
the possibility for such directors and officers to be in a position of
conflict.  Any decision made by such directors and officers involving
the Company, as the case may be, will be made in accordance with their
duties and obligation to deal fairly and in good faith with the Company
and such other companies.  In addition, such directors and officers are
required to declare and refrain from voting on any matter in which such
directors and officers may have a conflict of interest.  In this
respect, Howard Crosby, who was the President of Celebration and of the
Company at the time of the Reorganization,  refrained from voting on
any matter related to the Reorganization or any other matter pertaining
to both companies.

     The Company has engaged in transactions with its officers,
directors and principal shareholders, including the issuance of the
initial shares of the Company.  Such transactions may be considered as
not having occurred at arm's length.  The Company may be engaged in
transactions with management and others involving conflicts of
interest, including conflicts on salaries and other payments to such
parties, as well as business opportunities which may arise.  In this
regard, the directors of the Company are involved in other companies
and may have conflicts of interest in allocating time between the
Company and other entities to which they are affiliated.
