Opes Exploration Inc.
(An Exploration Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
July 31, 2006
(Expressed in US  dollars)
(Unaudited)

1. Exploration
	Stage Company

	The
	Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 14, 2005.
	The Company is an Exploration Stage Company, as defined by Statement
	of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No.7
	“Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises”.
	The Company’s principal business is the acquisition and
	exploration of mineral resources. The Company has not presently
	determined whether its properties contain mineral reserves that are
	economically recoverable.
	These
	financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis,
	which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and
	discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The
	Company has never generated revenues since inception and has never
	paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate
	earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. The continuation of
	the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued
	financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company
	to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations,
	confirmation of the Company’s interests in the underlying
	properties, and the attainment of profitable operations. As at July
	31, 2006, the Company has accumulated losses of $23,416 since
	inception. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the
	Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These
	financial statements do not include any adjustments to the
	recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and
	classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the
	Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
	The
	Company filed an SB-2 Registration Statement with the United States
	Securities and Exchange Commission that was declared effective on
	June 14, 2006 to register 2,335,000 shares of common stock for resale
	by existing shareholders of the Company at $0.05 per share until the
	shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, and thereafter at
	prevailing market prices. The Company did not receive any proceeds
	from the resale of shares of common stock by the selling
	stockholders.

1. Summary
	of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis
	of Presentation

	These
	financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance
	with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States,
	and are expressed in US dollars.  The Company’s fiscal year-end
	is January 31. Use
	of Estimates

	The
	preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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. Basic
	and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

	The
	Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS
	No. 128, "Earnings per Share". SFAS No. 128 requires
	presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on
	the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing
	net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the
	weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during
	the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common
	shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method
	and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In
	computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used
	in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the
	exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all
	dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive. Comprehensive
	Loss

	SFAS
	No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,”
	establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive
	loss and its components in the financial statements. As at July 31,
	2006 and January 31, 2006, the Company has no items that represent a
	comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of
	comprehensive loss in the financial statements. Cash
	and Cash Equivalents

	The
	Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of
	three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.

1. Summary
	of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Mineral
	Property Costs

	The
	Company has been in the exploration stage since its inception on
	November 14, 2005 and has not yet realized any revenues from its
	planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and
	exploration of mining properties. Mineral property exploration costs
	are expensed as incurred. Mineral property acquisition costs are
	initially capitalized when incurred using the guidance in EITF 04-02,
	“Whether Mineral Rights Are Tangible or Intangible Assets”.
	The Company assesses the carrying costs for impairment under SFAS
	144, “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived
	Assets” at each fiscal quarter end. When it has been
	determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a
	result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs then
	incurred to develop such property, are capitalized. Such costs will
	be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated
	life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently
	abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to
	operations. Financial
	Instruments

	The
	fair value of financial instruments, which include cash, accounts
	payable, accrued liabilities, and due to related parties were
	estimated to approximate their carrying values due to the immediate
	or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The Company’s
	operations are in Canada which results in exposure to market risks
	from changes in foreign currency rates. The financial risk is the
	risk to the Company’s operations that arise from fluctuations
	in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these
	rates. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to
	reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk. Income
	Taxes

	Potential
	benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts
	until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted
	SFAS No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes” as of
	its inception. Pursuant to SFAS No. 109 the Company is required to
	compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward.
	Potential benefit of net operating losses have not been recognized in
	these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it
	is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses
	carried forward in future years. Foreign
	Currency Translation

	The
	Company’s functional and reporting currency is the United
	States dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
	currencies are translated in accordance with SFAS No. 52 “Foreign
	Currency Translation”, using the exchange rate prevailing
	at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses arising on settlement of
	foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in
	the determination of income. Foreign currency transactions are
	primarily undertaken in Canadian dollars. The Company has not, to the
	date of these financials statements, entered into derivative
	instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. Stock-based
	Compensation

	Prior
	to February 1, 2006, the Company accounted for stock-based awards
	under the recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting
	Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock
	Issued to Employees” using the intrinsic value method of
	accounting, under which compensation expense was only recognized if
	the exercise price of the Company’s employee stock options was
	less than the market price of the underlying common stock on the date
	of grant. Effective February 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair
	value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123R “Share Based
	Payments”, using the modified retrospective transition
	method. There was no effect on the Company’s reported loss from
	operations, cash flows or loss per share as a result of adopting SFAS
	No 123R.

Notes to the Financial Statements

1. Summary
	of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Interim
	Financial Statements

	These
	interim unaudited financial statements for the periods ended July 31,
	2006 have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial
	statements and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments,
	which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present
	fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations
	and cash flows for the periods shown. The results of operations for
	such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected
	for a full year or for any future period. Recent
	Accounting Pronouncements

	In
	December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, “Exchanges of
	Nonmonetary Assets - An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29”.
	The guidance in APB Opinion No. 29, “Accounting for
	Nonmonetary Transactions”, is based on the principle that
	exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair
	value of the assets exchanged. The guidance in that Opinion, however,
	included certain exceptions to that principle.  SFAS No. 153 amends
	Opinion No. 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges
	of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception
	for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial
	substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the
	future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly
	as a result of the exchange.  The provisions of SFAS No. 153 are
	effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods
	beginning after June 15, 2005. Early application is permitted and
	companies must apply the standard prospectively. The adoption of this
	standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s
	results of operations or financial position.
	In
	May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS
	No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections – A
	Replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and SFAS No. 3”. SFAS 154
	changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a
	change in accounting principle and applies to all voluntary changes
	in accounting principle. It also applies to changes required by an
	accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the
	pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions. SFAS
	154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’
	financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is
	impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the
	cumulative effect of the change. The provisions of SFAS No. 154 are
	effective for accounting changes and correction of errors made in
	fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this
	standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s
	results of operations or financial position.
	The
	FASB has also issued SFAS No. 155 “Accounting for Certain
	Hybrid Financial Instruments” and SFAS No. 156 “Accounting
	for Servicing of Financial Assets”, but they will not have
	any relationship to the operations of the Company. Therefore a
	description and its impact for each on the Company’s operations
	and financial position have not been disclosed.


1. Related
	Party Balances/Transactions

The
	Company recognizes donated rent at $250 per month and donated
	services provided by the President of the Company at $500 per
	month. For the six month period ended July 31, 2006, the Company
	recognized $1,500 in donated rent and $3,000 in donated services.As
	at July 31, 2006, the Company is indebted to
	the President of the Company for $39, representing expenses paid
	on behalf of the Company.  This amount is unsecured, non-interest
	bearing and has no repayment terms.


1. Mineral
	Properties

	On
	January 13, 2006, the Company staked two new mineral claims near
	Atlin, British Columbia, Canada. The claims are registered in the
	name of the President of the Company, who has executed a trust
	agreement whereby the President agreed to hold the claims in trust on
	behalf of the Company. There are situations that could prevent the
	Company from obtaining clear title to the mineral claims such as the
	bankruptcy or death of the President. The cost of mineral properties
	charged to operations by the Company of $289 represented the original
	cost of the properties incurred by the President, which has been
	reimbursed by the Company.

Item
2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis.

SB-2
Registration Statement

We filed an SB-2 Registration
Statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission
that was declared effective on June 14, 2006 to register 2,335,000
shares of common stock for resale by existing shareholders of our
Company at $0.05 per share until the shares are quoted on the OTC
Bulletin Board, and thereafter at prevailing market prices. Our
Company did not receive any proceeds from the resale of shares of
common stock by the selling stockholders.

Market
Maker Sponsorship

We have not yet contacted
an authorized OTC Bulletin Board market maker for sponsorship of our
securities on the OTC Bulletin Board. We intend to engage a market
maker to file an application on our behalf in order to make a market
for our common stock by September 12, 2006.

Plan
of Operation

Exploration
Plan

Our
plan of operation for the foreseeable future is to complete the
following objectives within the time periods specified, subject to
our obtaining any additional funding necessary for the continued
exploration of our mineral claims. We do not have enough funds to
complete our Phase Two or Phase Three programs which we would plan to
start in the summer of 2008 if the results of our Phase One
exploration program is encouraging. The following is a brief summary
of our three phase exploration program:

1. We
	will perform preliminary work researching our mineral claims by
	having a geologist or an experienced prospector review available
	information about our claims. We anticipate spending approximately
	CDN$1,600 to purchase maps, air photographs and publications
	available at British Columbia government branches in Victoria and
	Vancouver.
2. The
	next anniversary date of our claims is January 13, 2007 and we do
	not intend to perform any exploration on our claims during the 2006
	exploration season. In order to keep the claims in good standing we
	can pay the Province of British Columbia approximately CDN$3,500 in
	lieu of exploration. Alternately, in order to save money we may
	abandon and re-stake the claims during a late night online staking
	session between November 1, 2006 and January 12, 2007. The cost to
	abandon and re-stake the claims is approximately CDN$400.
3. As
	recommended by our consulting geologist, we plan to conduct the
	first phase of our three phase exploration program starting on May
	1, 2007. This Phase One exploration program is expected to cost
	approximately CDN$25,500. A two-person field crew will helicopter
	onto our claims and will stay for a period of fourteen days. During
	this period the crew will generally survey the claims seeking any
	outcroppings and locating streams. An outcropping is a part of a
	rock formation that appears above the surface of the surrounding
	land. The crew will use global positioning equipment and take
	approximately one hundred samples. All samples will be bagged and
	tagged for location, date and time for later analysis. After this
	period is over the crew will return to Atlin by helicopter.
4. The
	samples obtained
	during the Phase One exploration program will be analyzed at a
	laboratory and we will review the results of the Phase One
	exploration program in the winter of 2007. We will engage our
	consulting geologist to interpret the results of Phase One. If we
	are able to identify favorable rock formations and structures with
	elevated metal values we will plan and conduct a Phase Two program.
5. If
	the Phase Two program were to proceed, our consulting geologist has
	indicated that we should budget approximately CDN$100,000 for our
	Phase Two program. If we proceed with a Phase Two program we would
	do so in June 2008. A four person crew will helicopter onto our
	claims and will stay for a period of three weeks. During this period
	the crew would prospect, obtain samples and possibly trench and
	perform geophysical surveys depending on the results of Phase One.
	The crew would obtain one hundred and fifty soil samples and fifty
	rock samples obtained via rock drilling and explosive use.  All
	samples will be bagged and tagged for location, date and time for
	later analysis. After this period is over the crew will return to
	Atlin by helicopter.

---

1. In the case that the Phase Two
	exploration program takes place, we will review its results in
	winter 2008. If we are able to continue to confirm elevated metal
	values at specific targets we would consider Phase Two a success and
	would plan for a Phase Three exploration program. The Phase Three
	exploration program is expected to cost at least CDN$200,000. At
	this stage, we would seek to link with a major resource company in a
	joint venture relationship in recognition of financing requirements.
	If we go ahead with the Phase Three exploration plan it would
	commence in June 2009.

As
at July 31, 2006, we had a cash balance of $37,373. If the results of
the Phase One exploration program are encouraging, we will have to
raise additional funds starting in January 2008 so that Phase Two
exploration could commence in June 2008.

During
the next 12 months, we do not anticipate generating any revenue. If
additional funds become required, the additional funding will come
from equity financing from the sale of our common stock or sale of
part of our interest in our mineral claims. If we are successful in
completing an equity financing, existing shareholders will experience
dilution of their interest in our
company. We do not have
any financing arranged and we cannot provide investors with any
assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the
sale of our common stock to fund our Phase Three exploration program.
In the absence of such financing, our business will fail.

We
may consider entering into a joint venture partnership by linking
with a major resource company to provide the required funding to
complete our Phase Three exploration program. We have not undertaken
any efforts to locate a joint venture partner for Phase Three. If we
enter into a joint venture arrangement, we will assign a percentage
of our interest in our mineral claims to the joint venture partner.

Based on the nature of our
business, we anticipate incurring operating losses in the foreseeable
future. We base this expectation, in part, on the fact that very few
mineral claims in the exploration stage ultimately develop into
producing, profitable mines. Our future financial results are also
uncertain due to a number of factors, some of which are outside of
our control. These factors include, but are not limited to:

- Our ability to raise
	additional funding;
- The market price for gold;
- The results of our proposed
	exploration programs on the mineral property; and
- Our ability to find joint
	venture partners for the development of our property interests

Due
to our lack of operating history and present inability to generate
revenues, our auditors have stated their opinion that there currently
exists substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
concern. Even if we complete our current exploration program and it
is successful in identifying a mineral deposit, we will have to spend
substantial funds on further drilling and engineering studies before
we will know if we have a commercially viable mineral reserve.

### Transportation
Purchase Plan

The
transportation costs of Phase One are comprised of helicopter service
from Atlin to the our mineral claims and mobilization to Atlin. For
Phase One we have budgeted CDN$6,600 to allow up to six hours of
helicopter trips from Atlin to and from our mineral claims. We have
also budgeted CDN$2,000 for mobilization to Atlin from Richmond,
British Columbia.

### Equipment
Purchase Plan

We will
purchase camp equipment and prospecting supplies for the Phase One
exploration program. The expected cost of the camp equipment such as
tents, stove, and other typical camping equipment will be CDN$1,000.

### Consumable
Purchase Plan

We will
purchase consumables including groceries and propane to provide for 2
persons for 14 days for the Phase One exploration program. The
expected cost of these consumables will be CDN$1,000.

### Employee
Hiring (Labor) Plan

We will not
hire any employees. We will use two consulting prospectors to perform
our Phase One exploration program. The expected cost of the each
prospector is CDN$200 per day. We are budgeting to pay each
prospector for 20 days to conduct the Phase One exploration program.
The expected cost of labor for Phase One and will be CDN$8,000.

---

### Sample
Analysis Plan

We plan to
allow for the analysis for up to one hundred samples. The estimated
cost of each sample is CDN$20 per sample. The expected cost for
sample analysis will be CDN $2,000 for the Phase One exploration
program.

### Phase One
Exploration Cost Review

The costs
described include preliminary research, transportation, equipment,
consumables, labor, and sample analysis make up the entire cost of
our Phase One exploration program. All the costs described above are
estimated so we are providing a 15% contingency allowance for
unanticipated and wrongly estimated costs. The table below summarizes
the cost estimate for the Phase One exploration program.

### Accounting and Audit Plan

We
intend to continue to have our outside consultant assist in the
preparation of our quarterly and annual financial statements and have
these financial statements reviewed or audited by our independent
auditor. Our outside consultant is expected to charge us
approximately $1,250 to prepare our quarterly financial statements
and approximately $1,750 to prepare our annual financial statements.
Our independent auditor is expected to charge us approximately $1,250
to review our quarterly financial statements and approximately $5,000
to audit our annual financial statements. In the next twelve months,
we anticipate spending approximately $14,250 to pay for our
accounting and audit requirements.

### Legal
Expense Plan

We
expect to incur filing costs of approximately $1,250 per quarter to
support our quarterly and annual filings. In the next twelve months,
we anticipate spending approximately $5,000 for legal costs to pay
for three quarterly filings and one annual filing.

### Risks and
Uncertainties

An
investment in our common stock involves a number of very significant
risks. Prospective investors should refer to all our risk factors
disclosed in our prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) on June
15, 2006.

There
are a number of known material risks and uncertainties that are
reasonably likely to have a material impact on our revenues,
operations, liquidity and income over the short and long term. The
primary risk that we face over the long term is that our mineral
claims may not contain a commercially viable mineral deposit. If our
mineral claims do not contain a commercially viable deposit this will
have a material effect on our ability to earn revenue and income as
we will not be able to sell any minerals.

There
are a number of industry-wide risk factors that may effect our
business. The most significant industry-wide risk factor is that
mineral exploration is an inherently risky business. Very few
exploration companies go on to discover economically viable mineral
deposits or reserves that ultimately result in an operating mine. In
order for us to commence mining operations we face a number of
challenges which include finding qualified professionals to conduct
our exploration program, obtaining adequate financing to continue our
exploration program, locating a viable ore body, partnering with a
senior mining company, obtaining mining permits, and ultimately
selling minerals in order to generate revenue.

---

Another
important industry-wide risk factor is that the price of commodities
can fluctuate based on world demand and other factors. For example,
if the price of a mineral were to dramatically decline this could
make any ore we have on our mineral claims be uneconomical to mine.
We and other companies in our business are  relying on a price of ore
that will allow us to develop a mine and ultimately generate revenue
by selling minerals.

Additionally, because our
claims are in a remote region of Canada and in an area of inclement
weather we face risks and uncertainties relating to the operation of
our exploration program. This presents both a short and long term
risk to us in that poor weather could delay our exploration program
and prevent us from exploring our mineral claims as planned. This is
a risk shared by many exploration companies in our business. We have
the ability to monitor weather predictions and can preserve capital
by not sending exploration crews out in poor weather conditions.
However, such weather delays could cause us to not be able to explore
our claims and not be able to file valid exploration work with the
Province of British Columbia. Failure to file valid exploration work
would mean we would have to pay the Province of British Columbia in
lieu of exploration in order to keep title to the claims. Payments in
lieu of exploration are generally not an efficient use of funds since
it does not advance the understanding of a potential mineral deposit.
However, these payments are sometimes required in our business.

Finally,
we face a risk of not being able to finance our exploration plans.
With each unsuccessful attempt at locating a commercially viable
mineral deposit we become more and more unattractive in the eyes of
investors. For the short term this is less of an issue because we
have enough funds to complete the first  phase of our exploration
program. However, over the long term this can become a serious issue
that can be difficult to overcome. Without adequate financing we
cannot operate exploration programs. However, this risk is faced by
all exploration companies and it is not unique to us.
