The Company is a foreign private issuer as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act and in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933. Equity securities of the Company are accordingly exempt from Sections 14(a), 14(b), 14(c), 14(f) and 16 of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 3a12-3 thereunder.  CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS  Certain of the statements made and information contained in this Annual Report on Form 40-F may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Exchange Act and forward-looking information under Canadian securities laws, including statements concerning the Companys financial and operating results and cash flows; plans for the Companys mineral properties including exploration and development activities, schedules and budgets; results of exploration activities at the Companys properties; status of joint-venture agreements and activities and expenditures by the Companys joint venture partners; estimates of mineralized material and mineral resources; availability and timing of financing for purposes including exploration and development of the Companys properties; potential for future production at the Companys properties or proceeds from disposal of the Companys properties; future commodity prices; future share price and valuation for the Company and for marketable securities held by the Company; conditions in the financial markets in general including share prices and interest rates; and the status of the Companys investments in financial instruments, which involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always using words or phrases such as expects, is expected, anticipates, plans, projects, estimates, assumes, intends, strategy, goals, objectives, potential or variations thereof or stating that certain actions, events or results may, could, would, might or will be taken, occur or be achieved, or the negative of any of these terms and similar expressions) are not statements of historical fact and may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual events or results to differ from those reflected in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, risks and uncertainties relating to:  · the Companys properties being in the exploration stage; · risks that mineral deposits may not be commercially viable due to factors including physical attributes of the deposit such as size, grade and proximity to infrastructure, as well as regulatory and other risks including those set forth herein; · the hazardous nature of mining activities including risks of accidents, unforeseen mineralization issues, environmental damage and unexpected or severe weather conditions; · risks relating to compliance with regulatory requirements and obtaining required licenses and permits to conduct operations; · risks that the Companys title to one or more properties may be subject to unrecognized prior agreements, or not compliant with regulatory requirements, or otherwise deficient; · competition; · the potential for delays in exploration or development activities or the completion of feasibility studies; · commodity price fluctuations; · currency fluctuations; · external risks relating to the economy and financial markets in general including risks related to fluctuations in interest rates and equity valuations; · risks related to financial instruments held by the Company including credit risk associated with short-term investments and accounts receivable; and · other risks and uncertainties, including those described under Item VIII. Risk Factors in the Annual Information Form and also those described under the headings Risk Factors and Uncertainties -- Risk Factors and Uncertainties Related to Financial Instruments and -- Other Risk Factors and Uncertainties in the Managements Discussion and Analysis, included herewith as Exhibits 1 and 3, respectively.    3    Should one or more of these risks and uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in forward-looking statements. Accordingly, readers are advised not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding the expectations and beliefs of management, anticipated future capital and operating costs, and the potential of the Companys properties and expectations of growth. Except as required under applicable legislation, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.  PASSIVE FOREIGN INVESTMENT COMPANY; OTHER TAX MATTERS  The Company believes that, for its fiscal year ended February 28, 2014, it was not a passive foreign investment company (PFIC), as defined in Section 1297 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, but it may have been a PFIC in one or more prior years. U.S. shareholders and potential investors in the Companys common shares should consult their tax advisors as to consequences which could materially affect the after-tax returns on investment of U.S. shareholders of the Company.  Purchasing, holding or disposing of securities of the Company may have tax consequences under the laws of the U.S. and Canada that are not described in this Annual Report on Form 40-F.  RESOURCE ESTIMATES  This Annual Report on Form 40-F includes mineral resource estimates that have been prepared in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 (NI 43-101) and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy, and Petroleum (CIM)  CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended.  These standards differ significantly from the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, information concerning descriptions of mineralization and resources contained in this Annual Report on Form 40-F may not be comparable to information from U.S. companies subject to the SECs reporting and disclosure requirements.  In particular, the term resource does not equate to the term reserves. The definitions of proven and probable reserves used in NI 43-101 differ from the definitions in SEC Industry Guide 7. Under U.S. standards, mineralization may not be classified as a reserve unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. The SECs disclosure standards normally do not permit the inclusion of information concerning measured, indicated, or inferred mineral resources in documents filed with the SEC, unless such information is required to be disclosed by the laws of the Companys principal jurisdiction or of a jurisdiction in which its securities are traded. U.S. investors should also understand that inferred mineral resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility.  It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimated inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies except in rare cases. Readers are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists or is economically or legally mineable. Disclosure of contained ounces is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report resources as in-place tonnage and grade.  CURRENCY  Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts in the Annual Report on Form 40-F are Canadian dollars. On February 28, 2014, the noon buying rate in the City of New York for cable transfers in Canadian dollars as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York was Canadian $1.00 = U.S. $0.9029, and on February 28, 2013,  the rate was Canadian $1.00 = U.S. $0.9723.  ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM  The Annual Information Form of the Company for the year ended February 28, 2014 is included as Exhibit 1.         4    AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS  Audited Consolidated Financial Statements  The audited consolidated financial statements of Virginia Mines Inc. as at February 28, 2014 and February 28, 2013, for the two-year period ended February 28, 2014 including the Independent Auditors report thereon dated May 15, 2014, are included herein as Exhibit 2. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board (IASB).  Managements Discussion and Analysis  The Managements Discussion and Analysis of the Company for the year ended February 28, 2014 is included herein as Exhibit 3.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES  Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures  As of February 28, 2014, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act).  Based upon that evaluation, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of February 28, 2014, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified SEC rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Managements Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting  The Companys management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Companys principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the Companys Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS.  The Companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Companys assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.  Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.          5    Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as at February 28, 2014 based on the criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment, management concluded that the Companys internal control over financial reporting as at February 28, 2014 is effective based on those criteria.  The effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as at February 28, 2014 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent auditors, as stated in their report which appears herein.  Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting  There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended February 28, 2014, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, in May 2013, the COSO released an updated Internal Control  Integrated Framework: 2013. The Company uses the COSO 1992 original framework and will transition to the updated framework during the transition period, which extends to December 15, 2014 after which the 1992 framework will be superseded. Management is currently assessing the impact of this transition and will report any significant changes to the Companys internal controls over financial reporting that may result therefrom.  Limitations on Controls  The Companys disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives as specified above. Management does not expect, however, that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures or the Companys internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.  NOTICES PURSUANT TO RULE 104 OF REGULATION BTR  None.  AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT  The Company has an Audit Committee established by the Board of Directors.
