Note 1:  Basis of presentation
        ----------------------

The interim financial statements presented herein have been prepared pursuant to
the rules and  regulations of the Securities  and Exchange  Commission.  Certain
information and footnote  disclosures  normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted  accounting  principles have been
condensed  or  omitted  pursuant  to such  rules and  regulations.  The  interim
financial  statements  should be read in conjunction  with the Company's  annual
financial  statements  for the year ended April 30, 2002,  notes and  accounting
policies thereto included in the Company's  Registration Statement on Form 10-SB
as filed with the SEC.

In the  opinion  of  management,  all  adjustments  (consisting  only of  normal
recurring  adjustments)  which are necessary to provide a fair  presentation  of
operating  results for the interim period  presented have been made. The results
of operations for the periods  presented are not  necessarily  indicative of the
results to be expected for the year.

Interim financial data presented herein are unaudited.

Note 2: Related Party
        -------------

During the six months ended October 31, 2002, and 2001, and the period from July
1997  (inception)  through October 31, 2002, the Company paid $2,781,  $-0-, and
$-0-, respectively, to a related party for consulting administrative services.

During the six months ended October 31, 2002 and 2001,  and the period from July
1997  (inception)  through  October 31, 2002,  an affiliate  paid certain  costs
totaling $725, $-0- and $-0-, respectively,  on behalf of the Company. The costs
were charged to operations with a corresponding credit to paid-in capital.

Note 3: Income Tax
        ----------

The Company  records its income taxes in accordance  with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". The Company incurred
net operating losses during the six months ended October 31, 2002 resulting in a
deferred tax asset, which was fully allowed for; therefore,  the net benefit and
expense resulted in $-0- income taxes.

We do not  expect  any  significant  changes  in the  number  of our  employees.
Presently,  we are  fortunate to have the services of an  experienced  President
given our limited financial resources.  Our current management team will satisfy
our requirements for the foreseeable future.

We can satisfy our cash requirements for general,  administrative  and legal and
accounting  requirements for the next 12 months. However, we will be required to
raise approximately  $30,000 on or before March 1, 2003 to complete  exploration
expenditures  totaling  $50,000  under our  option  agreement.  The  independent
auditors report which accompanies our audited  financial  statements as at April
30, 2002 states that our company has no  established  revenues  and has incurred
net losses since  inception.  In the view of our  auditors,  these factors raise
doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

General Background on Wollastonite
----------------------------------

Wollastonite  is named after  William Hyde  Wollaston,  the English  chemist and
mineralogist who discovered it in the late 1700's.  It is a naturally  occurring
metasilicate,  CaSiO3,  which was first  mined in  California,  in the 1930's to
supply  material for a white mineral woll. It has a theoretical  composition  of
48.3% CaO and 51.7% SiO2,  but impurities  such as iron,  magnesium or manganese
may substitute for part of the calcium, thereby reducing it's whiteness.

The aspect  ratio  (length  to  diameter  ratio) of  wollastonite  particles  is
commonly  between  5:1 and 8:1  and  may be as  high  as 20:1  depending  on the
processing   techniques.   This  ratio  (acicularity)  is  important  in  filler
applications  as it has a mechanical  reinforcing  effect.  The  brightness  and
opacity of  wollastonite  reduce  pigment costs in filler  applications  and low

<PAGE>
                                        9

moisture and oil  absorption  allow high  loadings.  Wollastonite  is relatively
chemically  inert  and it has a low  solubility  in water but is  decomposed  by
concentrated  hydrochloric  acid. Some surface charge exists naturally on milled
particles  and this allows  surface  coating  which is important  in  specialist
filler applications.

World Production and Markets
----------------------------

Wollastonite  is  generally  found in two types of  deposits:  skarns  formed by
thermal  metamorphic  and  metasomatic  processes,  and  carbonatites  formed by
magmatic processes.

There  are  many  occurrences  of the  mineral  wollastonite,  but  deposits  of
sufficient  size  and  purity  to be  economically  viable  are  rare.  The main
producers are located in the United States,  Mexico,  China,  Finland and India.
World  wollastonite  production  capacity  is  estimated  at 700 kt,  with China
leading  world  production  at 38%,  followed by the US with 29%, and India with
15%.   Wollastonite   production  has  increased   markedly  since  1990,   when
approximately 270 kt was produced.  The two leading North American producers are
NYCO and R.T. Vanderbilt.  Total world wollastonite consumption was estimated at
to 800 kt in the year 2000.  Asia led the top  consumer  countries  followed  by
Europe, North America and Latin America.

Production capacity estimates have been taken from Roskill Information  Services
Reports.  Roskill  Information  Services Ltd. is an  internationally  recognized
mineral  research  company which produces  reports on several  mineral and metal
products each year. The Roskill Information  Services Reports include production
and consumption figures on a country by country and worldwide basis.

Chemical Markets
----------------

The largest chemical market is in ceramics,  especially in tiles, though also in
white ware. White ware is ceramics used for cooking and includes  casseroles and
baking dishes. The main reason for use is as a processing aid, in that it allows
the ceramic body to be  fast-fired.  This is a method of processing  that allows
the ceramic to be fired in hours rather than in days with  considerable  capital
and  operating  cost  savings.  Difficulties  are  encountered  doing  this with
non-wollastonite  bodies,  which contain volatiles and tend to bloat, blister or
delaminate; and due to sensitivity to thermal shock which causes breakage during
the fast  heating and cooling  cycles.  Wollastonite's  fibrous  form allows the
contained  volatiles to escape to the exterior,  and  reinforce  the body,  both
green and fired, and the glaze,  inhibiting cracking,  crazing and chipping; the
mineral has low heat  expansion  characteristics  which  overcome  cracking from
thermal shock.

Metallurgical   end-uses  are  the  second  largest,   consuming  19%  of  world
requirements. The largest sector is for use in casting powders in the continuous
casting of steel.  The powder  protects the surface of the steel from oxidation,
insulates it to keep it molten,  lubricates the mold, and absorbs impurities.  A
low grade of  wollastonite  is usable  as long as it is free  from  sulphur  and
phosphorus.

Some  wollastonite  has long been used as a component of mineral wool glass,  in
Finland, Mexico and previously California.

Physical Markets
----------------

These rely mainly on the acicularity of the wollastonite  crystal.  They include
asbestos-replacement markets and plastic fillers.

Plastics   end-uses   take  up  10%  of  the  world  usage.   The  products  are
sophisticated,   involving  special  processing,  such  as  special  methods  of
comminution and  classification  to produce high aspect ratio fibers and surface
treatments.  The main end-uses are in thermoplastics and in thermoset  polymers,
all mainly for automotive end-uses. The main uses in the automobile industry are
in the manufacture of fenders,  battery casings,  body trim and moulded interior
parts such as cup holders and side storage panels.

<PAGE>
                                       10

Wollastonite  is also used as a high  brightness  extender  pigment in coatings,
particularly exterior architectural coatings and anti-corrosive primers, however
current usage is small. The term "high brightness  extender  pigment" means that
the outer coating of the finish will retain its  brightness as the  wollastonite
additive decreases the moisture absorption which increases the stain resistance,
thereby extending the brightness over the life of the component.

North American Producers and Potential Producers
------------------------------------------------

There are three  main  North  American  wollastonite  producers  - Nyco and R.T.
Vanderbilt,  both in upstate New York,  plus  sporadic  production  by Pfizer in
California.  A deposit  at  Gilbert,  Nevada has been  under  investigation  for
several years, but now appears to be dormant.

In 1994,  Nyco  acquired  mineral  rights to the large  Pilares  deposit,  50 km
northwest  of the  city of  Hermosillo  in  Sonora,  northwest  Mexico  which is
currently in production. The property contains 1,150 acres of mineral rights and
1,950 acres of surface  rights.  There is virtually no overburden and the mining
operation is open pit. Reserves of 50 Mt of wollastonite, grading 60% or better,
have been delineated.

The ore is high grade and contains high aspect ratio  wollastonite,  which go to
plastics   end-users.   The  major   markets  are  in  ceramics,   coatings  and
metallurgical fluxes. It is estimated that Nyco spent US$100 million to open the
mine, flotation and processing plant with a capacity of 90 ktpy to 216 ktpy.

It is too early to say  whether  the Big Cat  wollastonite  product  will have a
market.  However,  based  on the  work  completed  to date it  appears  that the
specifications  for the  market  can be met  with the Big Cat  product.  Further
marketing  studies  will be required to determine  what  quantity of the Big Cat
product can be marketed and general terms for such products.

Mining and Processing
---------------------

The  following  sections are a brief  discussion on the mining,  processing  and
transportation  options  for the Big Cat  deposit.  The  review  is based on the
geological and metallurgical testwork completed to date.

Mining
------

The  Big  Cat  deposit  appears  amenable  to  open  pit  mining  methods  using
conventional truck and excavator techniques.

The  cut-off  grade,  ore/waste  ratios,  bench plans and pit design can only be
completed when further  drilling,  metallurgical  and geotechnical  testwork and
cost analyses have been completed.

In  general  terms for a mine in this  location  mine  production  would only be
performed during the summer months over a 90 day production  period,  limited by
the extent of snow melt at the beginning of the season and by the on set of snow
at the end of the  season.  Therefore  the mine fleet  would be  selected  for a
higher daily production rate than a year round operation.

The ore would be  stockpiled  at the mine site for onward  transport to the mill
facilities

Essentially,  mining  of this  deposit  would be  similar  to a small  quarrying
operation.  The equipment  would likely be a small tracked  hydraulic top hammer
drill, an excavator together with small (22 - 25 t) articulated mining trucks.

Support  equipment such as a bulldozer,  motor grader and water truck would also
be required. It is likely that mining would be a contract operation.

<PAGE>
                                       11

Mine waste could be stockpiled on the north side of the deposit.

Grade  control would  generally be by visible  methods.  Wollastonite  is easily
distinguishable  from the  surrounding  rock. In fact,  based on a review of the
drill core logs, the error in visual  estimate of the  wollastonite  content was
less than 5% for material grading higher than 60% wollastonite,  compared to the
assay results.

An on-site  laboratory  would also be used for grade  control  using  blast hole
samples.

Metallurgy
----------

In general,  there are two methods used for the processing of wollastonite;  the
wet method such as that used by Partek  Minerals in Finland,  and the dry method
used by Nyco Minerals in the USA.

The dry method involves  primary,  secondary and tertiary  crushing to less than
1.2 mm using jaw,  gyratory and roll crushers  respectively.  The crushed ore is
then   screened   into  various  size   fractions   which  are  passed   through
high-intensity  magnetic separators to remove garnet and diopside. The fractions
are blended  and ground  further  using  pebble and  attrition  mills to produce
wollastonite with aspect ratios of between 15:1 and 20:1.

In the wet processing  method,  the crushed  wollastonite  ore is separated from
limestone and  dark-coloured  waste rock by  photometric  sorting.  The ore that
passes this first stage is then crushed and ground  further to around 200 um and
treated by reverse  floatation.  Calcite is floated  from  wollastonite  and the
wollastonite is passed through wet high-intensity  magnetic separation to remove
iron oxides.  Final processing involves filtering,  drying and pebble milling to
the required product size.

Coated grades of wollastonite, particularly for use in plastics, are produced by
surface   treating   ground   material   with   chemical   coupling   agents  or
surface-modifiers.  The basic  function  of these  chemicals  is to  modify  the
surface of the filler particles so that they wet and disperse more readily,  but
more  significant  improvements can be achieved with agents that react with both
the resin and the filler to provide a good bond between the two. Coupling agents
are divided into three main categories; acids, silanes and titanates.

Big Cat Metallurgical Testwork
------------------------------

Metallurgical  testing of the Big Cat ores was completed  over an eighteen month
period in 1996-97,  at  International  Metallurgical  and  Engineering  (IME) to
develop a flowsheet for recovering a high-grade wollastonite product.

The testwork indicated that a high purity  wollastonite  product can be produced
from the Big Cat  wollastonite  ores using  only  classification  and  flotation
processes  to remove  calcite  and  mafic  gangue  minerals  after  grinding  to
approximately 80% passing 120 microns.

Grinding liberates the wollastonite from the gangue minerals  comprising largely
of calcite, clinopyroxene, garnet and silicate. Testwork established that slimes
removal is important for flotation efficiency and wollastonite product quality.

<PAGE>
                                       12

Flotation produces a high-grade  wollastonite product by rejecting the remaining
calcite,  garnet and  clinopyroxene.  An overall  concentrate  mass  recovery of
approximately 50% was achieved in the laboratory locked cycle flotation tests at
a wollastonite recovery of approximately 84% at a head grade of about 58% to 60%
wollastonite.

The process  operates at its natural  slightly  alkaline pH.  Preliminary  water
quality analysis of the reject stream did not indicate any deleterious elements.

The reject  solids,  comprising  the slimes and gangue  minerals had a very high
neutralization  potential,  primarily  due to the presence of  wollastonite  and
calcite.

Testwork  that  will  optimize  the fine  grinding  and  classification  circuit
configuration  equipment  selection and process  conditions would be part of the
next stage of work.

1996 Testwork
-------------

A number of drill hole samples were collected for the testwork.  Eight composite
samples covering various wollastonite grades were prepared for testwork using NQ
drill core samples from holes DDH-1 to DDH-4, as shown in Table 1.1.

The core was  delivered  to IME,  crushed to 25 mm, coned and  quartered.  These
composites were used in all the testwork.

Eight scoping tests were conducted using these composites.  Locked cycle testing
was  carried  out to  provide  data  that  would  better  estimate  the  mass of
wollastonite  concentrate produced from the ores. An overall composite sample of
the eight test composites was prepared and used for the six locked cycle tests.

1997 Testwork
-------------

Six further  locked  cycle test were  performed  using  samples from drill holes
number 27, 29, 30, 32 and 35.  Locked  cycle test No. 7 used a composite  of the
1997 program  material from drill holes No., 23 to 35. The table below lists the
weighted  average  head  grades for each  composite,  and the amount of material

Note:  (1) Analysis by bulk chemical method.

The samples were prepared according to the following procedure:

The  ground ore was  classified  in two  stages.  The mill  discharge  was first
screened at 297 microns to remove the coarse fraction, which was recycled to the
mill. The screen undersize in the initial  testwork was  subsequently  de-slimed
using a 37 micron screen before feeding the ore to flotation.  This testwork was
repeated with screening at 20 microns to lower the mass of wollastonite  lost in
the slimes.

After desliming,  the wollastonite  product was conditioned for five minutes and
then  floated  in a Denver  flotation  machine.  The ground  flotation  feed was
conditioned  for five  minutes,  then floated for two minutes in a rougher stage
and a total of eight minutes in three scavenger stages. The combined rougher and
scavenger froth,  containing the gangue,  was re-floated for four minutes in the
first cleaner stage and five minutes in the second cleaner stage.  The flotation
collectors  were added as water based  emulsions.  Frother was added neat to the
process.  Oleic acid was always added in stages to the process  rather than in a
single addition. The recovery results from the testwork are shown in Table 1.3.

</TABLE>

The most significant  metallurgical  parameters  resulting from the testwork are
summarized as follows:

    Average mill head grade                          =        58.1% wollastonite
    Average concentrate mass recovery                =        50.5% of feed mass
    Average wollastonite recovery, approximate       =        84%
    Wollastonite losses (approximate)
             Gangue                                  =        10%
             Slimes                                  =        60%
    Grind size, P(80)                                =       120 microns
    Reagent addition,  oleic acid                    =       2,200 g/t
    Finished product size specifications:
             Grade 8                                 =        5 - 8 microns
             Grade 3                                 =        3 - 5 microns
             Grade 10                                =        20 - 30 microns
             Grade 100                               =        40 - 50 microns

Based on this program,  it appears that the wet grinding and flotation  recovery
method  would  be  well  suited  to the Big Cat  deposit.  However,  significant
additional testwork will be required to optimize this work and test the complete
ore body in terms of variability.

Other work will include dewatering testwork and water quality analysis.

Project Infrastructure
----------------------

One  of  the  critical   aspects  of  the  Big  Cat  development   will  be  the
infrastructure. This will include:

         -        Site Access
         -        Offices and Camp
         -        Water Supply
         -        Power Supply
         -        Sewage Disposal
         -        Fuel Storage

The location of the nearby Snip Mine and the existing Eskay Creek Mine road will
assist in this  development.  It is likely that a new road will be required from
the Bob Quinn  junction,  on the Eskay  Creek road,  to the mine site.  Based on
existing topographical maps, this road would be approximately 100 km.

The road design would be to the current British  Columbia Forest  Practices Code
and be similar to several mine site roads in north and central British Columbia.
This road would be used to transport  personnel and supplies to the site and for
transport of the wollastonite to the port of Stewart for onward shipping.

Power generation would be by diesel gensets.  Power requirements would be small,
likely in the 2-3 megawatt range.

Personnel  would stay at the site on a 2 or 4 week rotating shift basis,  and be
housed at a camp located at the site.

<PAGE>
                                       15

The operation would be typical of other northern  British Columbia mines such as
Eskay Creek, Snip and Golden Bear.

A second option would be to transport the whole ore from the mine to a treatment
facility at the Snip Mine.  The  wollastonite  product  could then be bagged and
shipped by hovercraft  from to Wrangell.  This is how the Snip mine operated and
the infrastructure for such an operation is still in place.

Recommended Work Program
------------------------

Our  consultants,  Downey  &  Associates,  concluded  that  the Big Cat  project
warrants further expenditure because:

The  review  agrees  with the  mineralized  material  calculation  completed  by
Whitegold.  Our consultants completed an independent  calculation of mineralized
material based on drill result data. Estimates indicate 1.2 million tones of ore
grading 62% wollastonite.

The contained  wollastonite  appears to be readily  recoverable  by standard wet
processing  methods,  at a recovery and  chemical and physical  grade that could
achieve market penetration.

The  project  location  is remote.  However it is  reasonably  close to existing
mining infrastructure and transport routes to assist in project development. The
project is "remote"  only in the sense that there is no existing  infrastructure
in the vicinity of the project.  A new road of approximately 70km in length will
be needed to access the existing mining infrastructure.

The current  drillhole  spacing  insufficient to support a feasibility study and
additional drilling will be required.

The  consultants  do not know of any social or  environmental  issues that could
jeopardize the project.

The  consultants  recommend  a four year,  three  phase  program  to  complete a
pre-feasibility  study  followed  by a detailed  feasibility  study.  All dollar
figures are U.S.

Phase 1.
--------

This phase would  commence in mid-2002  and be  completed by the end of February
2003.   This  work  would  include  a  marketing   study  and  some   additional
metallurgical  testwork.  The  marketing  study would allow us to determine  the
value ranges for the products  that could be produced  from the Big Cat deposit.
It would  also  help  predict  the  market  potential  and  growth  sectors  for
wollastonite.  This work would likely be completed by a  specialized  consulting
group or individual,  with specialized knowledge of the wollastonite market. The
estimate for this stage is $33,500.

Phase 1 work would  commence with the collection of ore samples from the project
for  metallurgical  test work. This work would be done to generally  confirm the
results of the test work  completed by IME so that the grade and recovery of the
wollastonite can be independently determined by us.

The test work would consist of flotation to determine  grade and recovery of the
product and optical  microscopy  to  determine  the aspect ratio of the product,
which is important in helping to determine potential markets and end users.

Based on the results of this test work the  marketing  study would be completed.
The marketing study would involve a consultant  with the relevant  experience in
the  wollastonite  market.  It will  include  current  research on the  existing
markets and supply and demand figures.  It would also include  discussions  with
potential  end users in areas such as the ceramics  industry and the  automobile
supply parts industry.

<PAGE>
                                       16

This study will also include data on pricing for the product.

The costs for this Phase are estimated as follows:

         Sample Collection (including travel)                    $1,600
         Metallurgical Test work                                 $8,500
         Marketing Study                                        $16,500
         Company General and Administrative                      $6,900
         Total                                                  $33,500

Phase 2.
--------

This phase would take  approximately  two years, at which time a pre-feasibility
would be completed. The work would include diamond drilling,  geotechnical work,
metallurgical and mineralogical testwork,  engineering studies and environmental
studies.

Expenditures of $300,000 are estimated to complete this work.

Phase 2 work will require  additional  drilling and test work. The drilling will
be of  sufficient  spacing so that ore resource  calculations  can be completed.
Concurrent with this will be the environmental baseline studies on the mine area
and the access road area.

Geotechnical work would include mapping of the rock types major structures.  All
drill core  would also be mapped  including  rock mass  classification  and rock
quality data.  This will allow  calculations  to be completed for pit slopes for
any proposed open pit mine.

The  metallurgical  work will include  comminution and grinding to determine the
optimal grind versus recovery relationship for the ore. Flotation test work will
also be  completed  including  locked  cycle  test work that will  model  actual
operating  conditions.  This test work will determine the best suite of reagents
for ore recovery as well as the grade and recovery of the product.

This work will also include  dewatering  test work which will determine the best
method of separating the moisture from the wollastonite  product.  Included will
be thickening test work and filtration test work. In general terms,  the optimal
moisture  will be in the 8-12%  range,  which  allows the  product to be shipped
without too much moisture but also prevents dusting.

Other work will include X-Ray Diffraction (XRF) test work to determine  impurity
levels in the product and further optical microscopy.

Engineering will  incorporate  preliminary mine planning and scheduling based on
the results of the drilling and the previous  stage  marketing  study.  The plan
would  include  bench levels,  equipment  selection  and waste dump  scheduling.
Preliminary  mine  capital and  operating  costs would also be  completed.  This
information would then be fed back to the geological  resource model for ongoing
reserve calculations.

The  pre-feasibility  study will include a basic process plant equipment  sizing
and plant  layout.  Project  infrastructure,  including  offices,  water and air
supply and power systems would also be sized. A key aspect of the infrastructure
design will be the access  road.  The studies  would  likely  indicate  the best
location  for the plant and thereby  allow  further  design of the access  road,
including route and alignment selection and stream crossings. Also included will
be hazard  assessment  for such issues as avalanche  hazards and  landslides  as
these are not uncommon in this area of Northern British Columbia.

<PAGE>
                                       17

Based on all of the above project  capital and operating costs to a 25% accuracy
would be completed followed by preliminary project economics.

The Estimated Costs for this Phase are:

         Drilling and Sampling                                  $73,500
         Geotechnical Work                                      $16,500
         Metallurgical Testwork                                 $30,000
         Preliminary Mine Design                                $16,500
         Engineering                                            $60,000
         Road Design                                            $13,500
         Environmental                                          $30,000
         Company General & Administrative                       $60,000
         Total                                                 $300,000

Phase 3.
--------

Phase 3 would  culminate in the completion of a bankable  feasibility  study and
would  take  an  additional  two  years  at an  estimated  cost  of  $2,333,000.
"Bankable"  means to a level of  detail  to  facilitate  lending  by  recognized
banking institutions.

It would include further diamond drilling,  geotechnical  testwork and drilling,
infrastructure and site selection,  transportation  studies,  geological reserve
calculations,  mine planning,  metallurgy and process  selection and capital and
operating cost estimates.  The environmental  work required to achieve a Project
Development certificate would also be completed during this phase.

The main aspect of this Phase 3 will be detailed  engineering and metallurgy and
will likely  require  taking a bulk  sample  from the site to complete  detailed
metallurgical studies.

Depending  on the  results of  drilling  from Phase 2, some  additional  in-fill
drilling  may be required  to ensure  sufficient  drill  density for ore reserve
calculations. Some additional drilling will be required on the proposed location
of the waste dumps to ensure that there is no potential to find  additional  ore
in this location. This is called "condemnation drilling".

A bulk sample  will also be taken at this time.  This sample will be selected by
an independent  qualified geologist based on the assay and sample results of the
drilling.  It may  consist  of a  single  bulk  sample  from one  location  or a
composite  from a number of  locations  in the  property.  The work will require
mobilization  of an excavator  and likely a helicopter to move the sample to the
Snip site for onward shipment to the test laboratory facility.

Test work would  include  final  testing of the ore using the bulk  sample.  The
results of this test work will also be used for the final marketing study.

Based on the above the  feasibility  study will be  completed.  The  feasibility
study  will  include  all  ore  reserve   calculations,   detailed  mine  design
incorporating  mine  scheduling,  bench sizes,  in-pit mine roads and mine fleet
equipment  selection.  This study will  include  final  process  site  location,
process plant design and associated infrastructure.  This work will be completed
by an independent  engineering  consulting  firm with  specialized  knowledge in
design of these types of process  plants.  All plant equipment will be sized and
selected based on the results of the metallurgical test work.

<PAGE>
                                       18

A detailed  access  road  design  will also be  completed,  to British  Columbia
Forestry  Practices code. The design will include detailed plans and sections of
