TIMBERLINE RESOURCES CORPORATIONAND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2011





NOTE 1  ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS:



Timberline Resources Corporation (Timberline or the Company) was incorporated in August of 1968 under the laws of the State of Idaho as Silver Crystal Mines, Inc., for the purpose of exploring for precious metal deposits and advancing them to production.  On August 27, 2008, we reincorporated into the State of Delaware pursuant to a merger agreement approved by our shareholders on August 22, 2008.



In 2006, the Company acquired Kettle Drilling, Inc. (Kettle Drilling or Kettle) and its Mexican subsidiary, World Wide Exploration S.A. de C.V. (World Wide). In September 2008, Kettle Drilling, Inc. changed its name to Timberline Drilling Incorporated (Timberline Drilling).  Timberline Drilling provides drilling services to the mining and mineral exploration industries in North America.  In September 2010, we closed our drilling services operation in Mexico which was operated by World Wide and moved substantially all of the World Wide assets to the United States.



On June 2, 2010, the Company acquired Staccato Gold Resources Ltd. (Staccato), a Canadian corporation engaged in the exploration for precious metal deposits and advancing them to production (see Note 7).



NOTE 2  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:



a.

Basis of Presentation  The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, as well as the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Companys management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending September 30, 2011.  All amounts presented are in U.S. dollars.



For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2010.



b.

Reclassifications  Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to current period presentation with no effect on previously reported net loss.



c.

Net Income (Loss) per Share Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed as net income (loss) available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through stock options, warrants, and other convertible securities.



The dilutive effect of convertible and outstanding securities, in periods of future income as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, would be as follows:

|                        |  |               |  |              
|----------------------- |  | ------------- |  | -------------
|                        |  | June 30, 2011 |  | June 30, 2010
|                        |  |               |  |              
|Stock options           |  | 6,634,833     |  | 4,833,641    
|Warrants                |  | 8,050,375     |  | 8,050,375    
|Convertible debt        |  | 3,333,333     |  | 3,333,333    
|Total possible dilution |  | 18,018,541    |  | 16,217,349   



At June 30, 2011 and 2010, the effect of the Companys outstanding options and common stock equivalents would have been anti-dilutive.



d.

Asset retirement obligation The Company accounts for asset retirement obligations by following the uniform methodology for accounting for estimated reclamation and abandonment costs as prescribed by authoritative accounting guidance.  This guidance provides that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation (ARO) will be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The ARO is capitalized as part of the carrying value of the assets to which it is associated, and depreciated over the useful life of the asset. Adjustments are made to the liability for changes resulting from passage of time and changes to either the timing or amount of the original present value estimate underlying the obligation. The Company has an ARO associated with its exploration program at the Lookout Mountain exploration project (see Note 9).

NOTE 2  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, (continued):



e.

New accounting pronouncements  In January 2010, the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) guidance for fair value measurements was updated to require additional disclosures related to movements of assets among Levels 1 and 2 of the three-tier fair value hierarchy. Also, a reconciliation of purchases, sales, issuance, and settlements of anything valued with a Level 3 method is required.  Disclosure regarding fair value measurements for each class of assets and liabilities will be required. The updated guidance was adopted by the Company in its quarter ended December 31, 2009, except for disclosures about the activity in Level 3 fair value measurements which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years.  Adoption of this updated guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.



NOTE 3  FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS:



Effective October 1, 2008, for financial assets and liabilities, and October 1, 2009, for non-financial assets and liabilities, the Company has adopted expanded disclosure requirements to include the following information for each major category of assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis:

NOTE 5  INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURE:



In July 2009, the Company entered into a joint venture operating agreement (the Agreement) with Highland Mining, LLC (Highland), an entity controlled by Ronald Guill, a director of the Company.   The joint venture entity, Butte Highlands JV, LLC (BHJV) was created for the purpose of developing and mining the Butte Highlands Gold Project.  As a result of its contribution of the Companys 100% interest in the Butte Highlands Gold Project, carried on its balance sheet at the original purchase price of the Butte Highlands project ($621,000) to BHJV, the Company holds a 50% interest in BHJV.  Under terms of the agreement, the Companys interest in BHJV will be carried to production by Highland, which will fund all future project exploration and mine development costs.  During the quarter ended June 30, 2011 the Companys investment in joint venture was increased by $21,450 due to the release by the State of Montana of reclamation bonds that were in place prior to the creation of BHJV.  Under the Agreement, these funds were contributed to BHJV upon their release.



Under the Agreement, Highland contributed property and will fund all future mine development costs at Butte Highlands.  Both the Companys and Highlands share of development costs will be paid from proceeds of future mine production.  The Agreement stipulates that Highland shall appoint a manager of BHJV and that Highland will manage BHJV until such time as all mine development costs, less $2 million (the deemed value of the Companys contribution of property to BHJV), are distributed to Highland out of the proceeds from future mine production.



NOTE 6  AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE EQUITY SECURITY:



Available-for-sale equity security is comprised of 2,980,000 shares of common stock in Rae Wallace Mining Company (RWMC), which have been valued as described below.  The following table summarizes the Companys available-for-sale equity security:



|                |              |  |              
|--------------- | ------------ |  | -------------
|                | June 30,     |  | September 30,

|Cost            | $     50,000 |  | $    50,000  
|Unrealized Gain | 546,000      |  | 456,600      
|Fair Value      | $   596,000  |  | $  506,600   
|                |              |  |              



Management has determined the best measure of fair value to be the bid price of RWMC stock as quoted by the market maker in the stock as of June 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, which was $0.20 and $0.17 per share, respectively.



RWMC is a related party to the Company (see Note 8).



NOTE 7  ACQUISITION OF STACCATO GOLD RESOURCES LTD.:



On June 2, 2010, the Company completed its acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Staccato Gold Resources Ltd. (Staccato), by way of a court approved Plan of Arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) in accordance with the terms of an arrangement agreement, dated March 22, 2010, by and between the Company and Staccato.  The acquisition was also approved by the Timberline stockholders and Staccatos securityholders.  Staccato was a publicly held Canadian corporation engaged in the exploration of precious metals properties in Nevada.  Timberline acquired Staccato in order to further the exploration and development of mineral properties owned or leased by Staccato, as well as to increase the working capital of the Company.



This transaction was accounted for as a business combination.  The Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Staccato in consideration for the issuance of one share of common stock of the Company for every seven common shares of Staccato and $0.0001 in cash for each common share of Staccato.  In addition, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding warrants to purchase common shares of Staccato and options to purchase common shares of Staccato, after giving effect to the exercise and cancellation of certain options immediately prior to closing, in consideration for the issuance by the Company of a warrant to purchase one share of common stock of the Company for every seven Staccato warrants or an option to purchase one share of common stock of the Company for every seven Staccato options, as applicable.  As of the acquisition date, pre-acquisition Timberline shareholders owned approximately 74% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company and former Staccato shareholders owned approximately 26%.  On a fully diluted basis, Timberline was owned 71% by pre-acquisition Timberline shareholders and

NOTE 8  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:



a.

Juniper Resources, LLC



The Company has a convertible note payable to a related party, Juniper Resources, LLC.  Information regarding the convertible note payable is as follows at June 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010:



|                                                                       |   |               |   |                   
|---------------------------------------------------------------------- | - | ------------- | - | ------------------
|                                                                       |   | June 30, 2011 |   | September 30, 2010
|                                                                       |   |               |   |                   
|Juniper Resources, LLC                                                 | $ | 5,000,000     | $ | 5,000,000         
|Accrued interest on convertible note payable to Juniper Resources, LLC | $ | 41,667        | $ | 41,667            



On October 31, 2008, the Company entered into a series of agreements in connection with a $5 million loan from Small Mine Development, LLC (SMD), an entity controlled by Ron Guill, a director of the Company. The loan documents included: a convertible note (the Convertible Term Note), a credit agreement (the Credit Agreement), a collateral assignment and pledge of stock and security agreement (the Pledge Agreement), a security agreement (the Security Agreement) and a right of first refusal over the Companys Butte Highlands property (the Right of First Refusal).



The Convertible Term Note has a principal amount of $5 million and is collateralized with all of the stock of Timberline Drilling, Inc., as well as a Deed of Trust covering the Companys Butte Highlands property in Silver Bow County, Montana (the Butte Highlands Property).



The Convertible Term Note was scheduled to be repaid on or before October 31, 2010, including interest due at maturity.  In June 2010, SMD agreed to extend the maturity date of the Convertible Term Note to on or before April 30, 2012.  Accordingly, as of June 30, 2011 the note is classified as a current liability.  All interest accrued through June 30, 2010 was paid by the Company to SMD at that time.  The Company also paid a $50,000 extension fee to SMD in consideration for the extension of the Convertible Term Note.  The extension fee has been recorded as a deferred financing cost and is being amortized over the life of the loan.  The Convertible Term Note was also amended to require interest accrued subsequent to June 30, 2010 to be paid by the Company to SMD monthly, rather than accruing interest to maturity.  All other terms of the loan were unchanged.  The Company has accounted for the extension of the maturity date as a loan modification.



Effective December 31, 2010 SMD assigned the Convertible Term Note and all related agreements and rights to Juniper Resources, LLC (Juniper), an entity also controlled by Ron Guill.



The Company also assigned to Juniper the Right of First Refusal to purchase the Butte Highlands Property on the same terms as those of any bona fide offer from a third-party upon 60 days notice from the Company of any such offer. In addition, the Company granted Juniper a right to develop the Butte Highlands Property on the same terms as those of any bona fide offer to develop the property from a third-party upon 60 days notice from the Company of any such offer.

NOTE 8  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS, (continued):



Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Convertible Term Note bears interest at 10% per annum, with interest payable monthly. The Convertible Term Note is convertible by Juniper at any time prior to payment of the note in full, at a conversion price of $1.50 per share. Should the Company issue any form of equity security other than the Companys common stock, Juniper may also convert all or any portion of the outstanding amount under the Convertible Term Note into the new form of equity security at the issuance price of the new form of equity security. Management analyzed the conversion features contained in this note considering the guidance provided in the ASC for derivatives and hedging.  Managements conclusion was that these convertible features are conventional convertible instruments and thus would qualify for equity classification. As conventional convertible instruments, the embedded conversion options qualify for the scope exception provided in the guidance for derivatives and hedging, and therefore would not be bifurcatedfrom the host instrument.



b.

Butte Highlands Joint Venture Agreement



On July 22, 2009, the Company entered into an operating agreement (the Operating Agreement) with Highland, an entity controlled by Ron Guill, a director of the Company, to form a 50/50 joint venture for development and mining of the Companys Butte Highlands Gold Project (see Note 5). Under the terms of the Operating Agreement, the Company contributed its Butte Highlands property to BHJV for a deemed value of $2 million, and Highland contributed certain property and will fund all future mine development costs.  Both the Companys and Highlands share of costs will be paid out of proceeds from future mine production.



Ron Guill, a director of the Company and an owner of Highland, is the manager of BHJV until such time as income in an amount equal to all mine development costs less $2 million is distributed to Highland.  At that time, a management committee, with equal representation from Highland and the Company, will be the manager of BHJV.  Under the terms of the Operating Agreement, Highland will have preferential rights with respect to distributions until the investment by Highland is deemed equal to the investment by the Company.



At June 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, the Company has a receivable from BHJV for expenses incurred on behalf of BHJV in the amount of $102,500 and $30,571, respectively.  This amount is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010.



c.

Rae Wallace Mining Company

The Company is an affiliate of Rae Wallace Mining Company (RWMC), as it holds approximately 13% and 18% of the issued and outstanding stock of RWMC as of June 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, respectively.

NOTE 9  ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION:



During the nine months ended June 30, 2011, the Company established an asset retirement obligation (ARO) in the amount of $110,000 for its exploration program at the Lookout Mountain Project.  The ARO resulted from the reclamation and remediation requirements of the United States Bureau of Land Management as outlined in the Companys permit to carry out the exploration program.  Estimated reclamation costs at the Lookout Mountain Project were discounted using a credit adjusted risk-free interest rate of 5% from the time the Company expects to pay the retirement obligation to the time it incurred the obligation, which is estimated at 10 years.



The Company also had an ARO associated with the underground exploration program at the Butte Highlands Gold Project being performed by BHJV (see Note 5).  The ARO resulted from the reclamation and remediation requirements of the Montana Department of Environmental Quality as outlined in the Companys permit to carry out the exploration program.  During the nine months ended June 30, 2011, the Companys exploration permit was transferred to BHJV as the operator of the Butte Highlands Gold Project, thus relieving the Company of its reclamation and remediation obligations.  Therefore, the ARO of $250,089 and the related asset, along with accumulated accretion expense of $12,504 associated with the Butte Highlands exploration program, were removed from the Companys financial statements during the nine months ended June 30, 2011.

Corporate Background and History

We commenced our exploration stage in January 2004 with the change in the management of the Company.  From January 2004 until March 2006, we were strictly a mineral exploration company.  With our acquisition of a drilling services company and the acquisition of the Butte Highlands Gold Project, we diversified our business plan to include drilling services and an exploration property with the potential to develop an underground mine with possible future gold production.  Prior to the purchase of Timberline Drilling (formerly known as Kettle Drilling), the Company had no reported revenues and only had accumulated losses. In June 2010, the Company acquired Staccato Gold Resources Ltd. (Staccato), a Canadian-based resource company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange that was in the business of acquiring, exploring and developing mineral properties with a focus on gold exploration in the dominant gold producing trends in Nevada.  As a result of this acquisition, we obtained Staccatos South Eureka Property, which included their flagship gold exploration project, the Lookout Mountain Project (Lookout Mountain), and several other projects at various stages of exploration in the Battle Mountain/Eureka gold trend in Nevada, along with Staccatos wholly owned U.S. subsidiary, BH Minerals USA, Inc.



Corporate Overview



Timberline Resources Corporations business is comprised of an exploration division with a focus on advanced-stage precious metals properties, such as its South Eureka Property in Nevada, a 50% carried-to-production interest in the Butte Highlands Joint Venture which is currently in development and targeted to begin gold production in early 2012, and a wholly owned contract diamond drilling subsidiary, Timberline Drilling, which provides cash flow to the Company from its underground and surface drilling operations at operating mines and advanced development and exploration projects.



Our exploration division is focused on district-scale gold projects with the potential for near-term, low-cost development.  In addition to the advancement of the properties acquired in Nevada with the Staccato acquisition and the evaluation of other potential properties and projects, the exploration division is responsible for the acquisition and advancement of our Butte Highlands Gold project that is being developed under the terms of our 50/50 joint venture agreement with Highland Mining, LLC.



Timberlines operating subsidiary, Timberline Drilling, provides both surface and underground drilling services in the United States, with its largest client being Newmont Mining.  Timberline Drilling specializes in underground, hard rock core drilling  a niche business that we believe is well-positioned as the industry matures and exploration projects are advanced into producing mines.



On June 2, 2010, the Company closed its acquisition of Staccato.  As a result of this acquisition, Timberline acquired Staccatos South Eureka Property, which includes a partially drill-tested exploration portfolio and the advanced-stage Lookout Mountain Project, located along Nevadas Battle Mountain-Eureka trend, and approximately $4.5 million in cash.  In conjunction with this acquisition, shares of Timberlines common stock were listed on the TSX Venture Exchange in Canada where they trade under the symbol TBR, in addition to the Companys NYSE Amex listing, where the shares of Timberlines common stock trade under the symbol TLR.



Exploration Division



South Eureka Property, Nevada



The South Eureka Property, including Lookout Mountain, was the primary asset we acquired in the acquisition of Staccato in June 2010. The acquisition was predicated on the review and assumption based on historic drill data, favorable metallurgical tests, a number of partially tested mineralized targets, a non-compliant gold resource, and current gold prices; that a low-cost, low-grade, heap leachable gold mine with modest capital expenditures could potentially be developed.



The South Eureka Property is located within the southern portion of Nevadas productive Battle Mountain-Eureka gold trend, with Lookout Mountain considered to be an advanced-stage gold project at the beginning of the preliminary economic assessment stage. The South Eureka Property, exceeding 15,000 acres in size, includes a 4-mile strike length of structurally and stratigraphically controlled gold mineralization, all zones of which are open and will require additional in-fill and step-out drilling. The property has an extensive exploration, drilling, and gold production history by a number of companies since 1975, including Idaho Mining Corp., Norse-Windfall Mining, Amselco, Echo Bay Mines, and Barrick Gold. A total of 533 holes, totaling 267,000 feet, were drilled on the property prior to its acquisition by Timberline. Gold mineralization tested to date is typical sediment-hosted Nevada gold mineralization.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2011 we commenced the next phase of exploration and drilling at the South Eureka Property.  The program will include a minimum of 30,000 feet of drilling, with a primary focus on expanding and upgrading the mineral resource at Lookout Mountain by drilling along strike on the Ratto Ridge structural trend north toward the Rocky Canyon zone and, especially, south toward the South Adit zone.  Both the Rocky Canyon and South Adit zones have been extensively drilled and contain historic gold resources. The program will also test several prioritized locations across the 23 square-mile property, ranging from zones known to carry significant gold mineralization to previously untested structural targets.



During the nine months ended June 30, 2011, the Company has completed 57 holes for a total of approximately 30,000 feet of reverse circulation drilling and 7,500 feet of core drilling during the previous drill program that commenced in August 2010.  Preliminary metallurgical results from trench and reverse circulation drill samples are positive, and support managements initial assessment regarding the viability for development of a low-cost, low-grade, heap leach gold operation with modest capital expenditures at Lookout Mountain.



In March 2011, we reported our initial NI 43-101 compliant gold resource estimate at Lookout Mountain.  We anticipate that this initial resource estimate, coupled with bench-scale metallurgical test results, will allow us to complete an internal scoping study to assess the economic sensitivities of the project.



Butte Highlands Project, Montana



Our exploration division continued to advance the Butte Highlands Gold Project toward production during the quarter ended June 30, 2011.   Our joint venture partner, Highland Mining, LLC, previously completed approximately 4,500 feet of the underground ramp to access the mineralized areas and allow for underground definition drilling.  A planned 86 hole, 49,500 foot underground diamond drilling program at Butte Highlands commenced during the quarter ended March 31, 2011 and ended in June 2011.  This drill program was designed to provide detailed delineation of the mineralization for resource estimation and underground mine planning at the project.  Drill results to date have supported and added confidence to our internal modeling of the mineralized areas.  The remaining drill assays will be completed early in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2011 and we anticipate that we will commence our planned 10,000 ton bulk sample prior to the end of the calendar year.

The application for our Hard Rock Operating Permit was submitted to the Montana Department of Environmental Quality in May 2010. We, in conjunction with staff from the Butte Highlands Joint Venture, continue to refine the mine and underground exploration planning that is an integral part of our overall mine planning at the Butte Highlands Gold Project.  The ongoing exploration and development phase of the program is expected to continue through the remainder of 2011 and, assuming acceptable permitting, drill results and completion of the 10,000 ton bulk sample, is expected to be followed by gold production in early 2012.

Drilling Services



Our focus on underground drilling with established customers continues to provide a solid base of operations, with the demand for surface exploration drilling picking up recently given the current strength in pricing for commodities such as gold, silver and copper.



Over the past three years, we have successfully established a new corporate culture in our drilling subsidiary and have renewed our focus on underground drilling at established mining operations.  We have reduced the layers of management between the head office and operations in the field, streamlined our processes and operations, strengthened our balance sheet, and implemented new employee incentive programs.  These objectives were achieved under difficult market conditions, and have resulted in considerable improvements in our operational and financial performance.



During the year ended September 30, 2010, due to a difficult operating environment, declining financial results, and increasing country-related risk, we decided to cease the operations of Timberline Drillings wholly-owned Mexican subsidiary, World Wide Exploration (World Wide).  World Wides drill rigs and related assets were moved back to the U.S. where they are available for use by Timberline Drilling.



During the quarter ended June 30, 2011, Timberline Drilling had as many as 18 of its 24 drills operating, primarily in Nevada, with 16 drills in operation as of June 30, 2011.



Timberline Drillings largest customer is Newmont Mining Corporation (Newmont Mining), with whom we have an operating contract through February 2014.  We enjoy a very close working relationship with Newmont Mining, including establishing joint planning and safety review teams.  We believe this contract provides a higher degree of certainty in future cash flows for Timberline Drilling while presenting an excellent foundation for future stability and growth.  This

also allows us to focus on further improvements in customer service and safety with our largest client.  Our relationship with Newmont Mining includes a supplementary agreement to provide deep-hole drilling in Nevada that is expected to provide long-term surface drilling revenue.



Summary



We believe the global economic environment and monetary situation favor a solid and relatively steady gold price for the foreseeable future.  Volatility is to be expected, however our view is that our business model can continue to advance even if gold prices retreat significantly from current levels.



As a company, we are focused on advancing the Butte Highlands Gold Project toward expected gold production in early 2012, advancing exploration programs at Lookout Mountain and other potential projects on our South Eureka Property and other properties acquired in Nevada, achieving continuous improvements at Timberline Drilling, and continuing to evaluate new opportunities that fit with our business model. We have evaluated a number of projects and opportunities during the past several months and will continue to do so.  We believe that management and the Companys board of directors have the knowledge base to evaluate opportunities  either organically or through mergers and acquisitions  and we continue to do so.

For the three months ended June 30, 2011, we reported $8,619,303 in revenue compared to $5,791,518 in the same period of 2010.  Our revenues are derived entirely from Timberline Drilling and our increase from the previous year was primarily due to an increase in the number of drill rigs in service during the quarter.  Total gross profit increased in the quarter ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the previous year primarily due to an increase in average daily production rates from our operating drills and higher average revenue per foot drilled.



Our consolidated net income for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $528,199 compared to a consolidated net loss of $814,700 for the three months ended June 30, 2010.   The net income during the quarter ended June 30, 2011 is attributable to a 123% year over year increase in net income from Timberline Drilling, the absence of losses from our discontinued operations in Mexico in the current period, reduced professional fees expense and recognition of a deferred income tax benefit during the current year; offset by increased exploration expenditures on our mineral properties.



For the nine months ended June 30, 2011, we reported $21,618,995 in revenue compared to $14,158,535 in the same period of 2010.  Our revenue increase from the previous year was primarily due to an increase in the number of drill rigs in service during the current period.  Total gross profit increased in the nine months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the previous year due to an increase in average daily production rates from our operating drills, and an increase in the number of drills operating as compared to the previous year.  However, gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased in the nine months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the previous year, primarily due to preparation costs associated with the deployment of surface drilling rigs to new customer sites, as well as higher maintenance costs.



Our consolidated net loss for the nine months ended June 30, 2011 was $2,189,566 compared to a consolidated net loss of $2,656,294 for the nine months ended June 30, 2010.   The decreased net loss in the current year is primarily attributable to increased net income from Timberline Drilling, reduced losses from our discontinued operations in Mexico, reduced professional fees expense and recognition of a deferred income tax benefit, offset by a $2.2 million increase in exploration expenditures on our mineral properties and stock option expenses associated with vested option grants in the current year.

Timberline Drilling provides drilling services on a contract basis, which often requires long lead times based on drill rig availability.  In the past, we have had a backlog related to several customers for drilling services work to be performed in future periods.  While demand for drilling services has increased in recent months, some of our drill rigs are currently idle, and our backlog consists of drilling services work to be performed for one major customer and five other customers at June 30, 2011.  While we have seen increases in requests for proposals for drilling services, and secured additional drilling service contracts for new customers in the quarter ended June 30, 2011, we cannot predict if demand for drilling services will increase in future periods.

The decrease in the after tax net loss for Timberline Corporate and the Exploration division for the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the previous years after tax net loss in the same period is primarily a result of reduced legal and accounting expenses in the current year, reduced general and administrative costs, and realization of an income tax benefit in the current period, offset in part by increased mineral exploration activities at our Lookout Mountain Project in Nevada.  Other general and administrative expenses, as well as professional fees expenses, were lower for the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the previous year as a result of increased costs associated with the Companys acquisition of Staccato Gold Resources Ltd. in the previous year.



The increase in the after tax net loss for Timberline Corporate and the Exploration division for the nine months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the previous years after tax net loss in the same period is primarily a result of significantly increased expenditures on mineral exploration activities at our Lookout Mountain Project in Nevada, as well as increased stock option expense.  This increase was offset somewhat by reduced legal and accounting costs and realization of an income tax benefit during the current periods.  Other general and administrative expenses were higher for the nine months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the previous year due to increased salaries and benefits expense, as well as the initiation of cash compensation for the Companys board of directors. Professional fees expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2011 were lower as compared to the previous year primarily due to increased costs associated with the Companys acquisition of Staccato Gold Resources Ltd. in the previous year.



The income tax benefit during the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2011 arose as a result of a reduction in deferred income tax liabilities assumed upon the acquisition of Staccato Gold Resources Ltd.

Timberline Drillings increase in revenue for both the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2011 is attributable to a higher utilization rate of our drill rigs, primarily due to the addition of new customers and contracts as well as an increase in the number of rigs working for our major customer.  Overall, the demand for drilling services has increased during this fiscal year as a result of continued high gold and silver prices.  Junior resource and exploration stage companies are gaining access to capital for their drilling programs, and, as a result, the overall demand for drilling services continues to be strong.  Timberline Drilling has secured several new contracts with exploration stage companies during the fiscal year to date.



The increase in gross profits for both the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the prior year is a function of an increase in average daily production rates from our operating drills and higher revenues per foot drilled, offset somewhat by preparation costs associated with the deployment of surface drilling rigs to new customer sites, as well as higher maintenance costs in the current year.  Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased in the nine months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the previous year, primarily due to preparation costs associated with the deployment of surface drilling rigs to new customer sites, as well as higher maintenance costs. Increased year over year general and administrative expenses at Timberline Drilling for both the three month and nine month periods ended June 30, 2011 reflect an expected increase in overhead costs to support the increased number of operating drill rigs as compared to the previous year.



As expected, our revenue stability resulting from our drilling contract with Newmont Mining in Nevada, coupled with our continued focus on reducing operating and administrative costs and improving performance efficiencies, resulted in strong earnings and cash flow from Timberline Drilling in the third quarter, and we expect similar results to continue in the fourth quarter of our 2011 fiscal year.

During the year ended September 30, 2010, due to declining operational and financial results and the increased risks associated with operating in Mexico, we decided to cease the operations of Timberline Drillings wholly-owned Mexican subsidiary, World Wide.  World Wides drill rigs and related assets were moved back to the U.S. where they are available for use by Timberline Drilling.  Expenses during the nine months ended June 30, 2011 reflect the winding down of operations in Mexico.  We expect a minimal amount of additional expenses to be realized in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 and no further costs to be incurred after that time.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

At June 30, 2011, we had assets of $32,897,904 consisting of cash in the amount of $4,652,298; accounts receivable in the amount of $2,571,331; materials and supplies inventories valued at $1,654,574; property, mineral rights and equipment, net of depreciation of $18,806,625; goodwill related to the acquisition of Timberline Drilling in the amount of $2,808,524 and other assets in the amount of $2,404,552.

Disruptions in the credit and financial markets over the past several years have had a material adverse impact on a number of financial institutions and have limited access to capital and credit for many companies. While access to capital has improved recently, these disruptions could, among other things, make it more difficult for us to obtain, or increase our cost of obtaining, capital and financing for our operations.  Our access to additional capital may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all.

We expect to rely upon our existing cash balances and, in part, the cash flow generated by Timberline Drilling, our wholly owned contract core drilling subsidiary.  Management expects that if commodity prices for gold and silver remain at or near the levels seen in fiscal year 2011 to date, our revenues will increase in step with increased demand for drilling services by both our current customers as well as new customers.  While cash flows from Timberline Drilling have increased in fiscal year 2011 to date as our revenues increase, if cash flows decline or are insufficient to fund our expenditures, our discretionary exploration activities and other operations will either be curtailed significantly or we will be reliant upon equity financings to continue our exploration activities into the future.  The current market conditions could make it difficult or impossible for us to raise necessary funds at acceptable costs to meet our capital requirements.  If we are unable to obtain financing through equity investments, we will seek multiple solutions including, but not limited to, asset sales, credit facilities or debenture issuances.



At June 30, 2011, the Company has a working capital surplus of $350,385.  Management expects to continue to maintain or increase the amount of working capital via continued improvements in operating cash flows at the Companys drilling subsidiary, monitoring discretionary exploration expenditures, reducing professional and consulting expenses, and potentially obtaining financing through sales of equity securities.  The Companys working capital includes a convertible note payable to a related party of $5,000,000 maturing in April 2012.  Management expects to satisfy this current note payable through conversion to equity of the Company, extending the term of the current note payable, or by refinancing the current note payable with a longer term debt facility.



Management expects to maintain or improve operating cash flows at the Companys drilling subsidiary by increasing the utilization rate of our drills and closely managing payroll expenses, supplies inventory levels, and general and administrative costs. We plan to continue exploration programs on our material exploration properties, to fund some exploratory activities and drilling on early-stage properties, and to seek additional acquisition opportunities.



As a result of our current cash balance, the ability of our drilling subsidiary to generate cash flows from operations, and our ability to curtail discretionary exploration expenditures as needed, management believes that it has sufficient working capital to meet the Companys ongoing operating expenses for the next 12 months.  Additional financing may be required if the Company seeks to expand its exploration or drilling services operations or undertake further property acquisitions.



Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.



Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates



See Note 2 to the financial statements contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for a summary of the significant accounting policies used in the presentation of our financial statements. We are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related disclosures of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses.  We believe that our most critical accounting estimates are related to asset impairments, asset retirement obligations, and inventory net realizable value.



Our critical accounting policies and estimates are as follows:



Asset Impairments



Significant property acquisition payments for active exploration properties are capitalized.  The evaluation of our mineral



25



---





properties for impairment is based on market conditions for minerals, underlying mineralized material associated with the properties, and future costs that may be required for ultimate realization through mining operations or by sale.  If no mineable ore body is discovered, or market conditions for minerals deteriorate, there is the potential for a material adjustment to the value assigned to mineral properties.



The Company reviews the carrying value of equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the equipment is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors.



Asset Retirement Obligations



The Company has an obligation to reclaim its properties after the surface has been disturbed by exploration methods at the site. As a result, we have recorded a liability for the fair value of the reclamation costs we expect to incur at our Lookout Mountain Project.  The Company estimated applicable inflation and credit-adjusted risk-free rates as well as expected reclamation time frames. To the extent that the estimated reclamation costs change, such changes will impact future reclamation expense recorded. A liability is recognized for the present value of estimated environmental remediation (asset retirement obligation) in the period in which the liability is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The offsetting balance is charged to the related long-lived asset. Adjustments are made to the liability for changes resulting from passage of time and changes to either the timing or amount of the original present value estimate underlying the obligation.



Materials and Supplies Inventory



Inventories consist primarily of parts, operating supplies, drill rods and drill bits. The Company values its materials and supplies inventory, with the exception of drill rods, at the lower of average cost or market.  Drill rods are valued using their average cost less an allowance for rod usage on a per-foot drilled basis.  The Company reviews the carrying value of inventory for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that materials and supplies inventory may no longer be of use by the Companys drilling operation.  The Company also periodically assesses the per foot allowance for drill rod usage by assessing the net carrying value of rod inventory relative to the operating condition of rod inventory held by the Company.  Allowances are recorded for inventory considered to be in excess or obsolete.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



Conclusions of Management Regarding Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures



At the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision of and with the participation of the Companys management, including the President and Chief Executive Officer, Paul Dircksen (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer, Randal Hardy, (CFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operations of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a  15(e) and Rule 15d  15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation the CEO and the CFO have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were adequately designed and effective in ensuring that: (i) information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits to the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms and (ii) material information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow for accurate and timely decisions regarding required disclosure.



Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting



There were no changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Companys most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting
