      CERTIFICATION PURSUANT TO RULE 13A-14 (A) OF CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER

I, Arthur Lang, certify that:

1.       I have reviewed this annual report on Form 20-F of IMA Exploration Inc.
for the year ended December 31, 2007;

2.       Based  on my  knowledge,  this  report  does  not  contain  any  untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact  necessary to make
the statements made, in light of the  circumstances  under which such statements
were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;

3.       Based on my knowledge,  the financial  statements,  and other financial
information included in this report, fairly present in all material respects the
financial  condition,  results of operations and cash flows of the registrant as
of, and for, the periods presented in this report;

4.       The  registrant's  other  certifying  officer and I are responsible for
establishing and maintaining  disclosure  controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules  13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) and internal  control over financial
reporting (as defined in Exchange Act rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) and have:

         a)   designed such disclosure  controls and procedures,  or caused such
              disclosure  controls  and  procedures  to be  designed  under  our
              supervision,  to ensure that material  information relating to the
              registrant , including its consolidated subsidiary,  is made known
              to us by others within that entity, particularly during the period
              in which this report is being prepared;

         b)   designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused
              such  internal  control  over  financial  reporting to be designed
              under our supervision,  to provide reasonable  assurance regarding
              the reliability of financial  reporting and the preparation of the
              financial  statements  for external  purposes in  accordance  with
              generally accepted accounting principles;

         c)   evaluated  the   effectiveness  of  the  registrant's   disclosure
              controls  and   procedures   and  presented  in  this  report  our
              conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and
              procedures,  as of the end of the period covered by this report on
              such evaluation; and

         d)   disclosed in this report any change in the  registrant's  internal
              control  over  financial   reporting  that  occurred   during  the
              registrant's most recent fiscal quarter (the  registrant's  fourth
              fiscal  quarter  in  the  case  of  an  annual  report)  that  has
              materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect,
              the registrant's internal control over financial reporting: and

5.       The registrant's other certifying  officer and I have disclosed,  based
on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial  reporting,  to
the registrant's  auditors and the audit committee of the Registrant's  board of
directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):

         a)   all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design
              or operation of internal  control over financial  reporting  which
              are reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrant's ability
              to record,  process,  summarize and report financial  information;
              and

         b)   any fraud,  whether or not material,  that involves  management or
              other  employees who have a significant  role in the  registrant's
              internal controls over financial reporting.
