NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

August 31, 2011

February 29, 2012

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Calais Resources, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada, on December 30, 1986. Calais Resources, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively(collectively with its subsidiaries, referred to herein as “Calais”, “we”, “us” or “our”) isare currently in the process of exploring various mineral interests, primarily gold and silver. We are headquartered in Colorado and have mining interests in Colorado and Nevada.

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant areas requiring the use of management estimates and assumptions relate to the valuation of deferred tax assets accruals for liabilities and the fair value of financial instruments. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Accordingly, actual results may differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Our activities to date have primarily consisted of raising capital and acquiring and exploring our mining interests. We have had no significant revenue in our history. Accordingly, we are considered to be in the exploration stage.

Our fiscal year end is May 31st. Through May 31, 2004, we reported our financial information using Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“Canadian GAAP”) using the Canadian dollar as our functional and reporting currency. During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2005, we changed our reporting basis to the United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and our functional and reporting currency to the United States dollar (“U.S. dollar”). Accordingly, historical cumulative financial information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q has been restated using U.S. GAAP with a functional and reporting currency of the U.S. dollar, unless otherwise noted. All references herein to “$” and “US$” refer to U.S. dollars. Unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars. All references to Common Shares refer to shares of our common stock (without par value) unless otherwise indicated.

These interim unaudited financial statements 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 our 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.

NOTE 2 – LIQUIDITY

As of August 31, 2011,February 29, 2012, we had a working capital deficit of $11,681,015,$11.8 million, and for the threenine months then ended cash used in operating activitiesamounted to $1,725,150.$2.7 million.  To date, we have not generated anyonly nominal revenues from operations ($83,260) and have incurred losses since inception resulting in a deficit accumulated during the development stage of $48,194,361$50.1 million through August 31, 2011.February 29, 2012. Further losses are anticipated as we continue to be in the exploration stage, as defined in ASC Topic 915,Development Stage Entities.

Our ability to continue as a going concern depends upon our ability to generate profitable operations in the future and/or to raise additional funds through equity or debt financing. Since inception, we have raised $23,446,994$24,346,944 through the issuance of equity securities and $17,311,960$17,353,960 through the issuance of debt instruments, which has been used primarily to provide operating funds, repay long termlong-term debt, and acquire mineral interests. Subsequent to August 31, 2011,February 29, 2012, we have acquired an additional $420,000$50,000 through financing,issuance of equity securities, as described more fully in Note 12. On December 1, 2011, the Brigus note (see Note 5) matured and we have not made payment as of the date of these financial statements. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional funding when needed, or that such funding, if available, can be obtained on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we cannot obtain needed funds for implementing our mine plan after completion of the feasibility study, we may be forced to curtail or cease our activities. Equity financing, if available, may result in substantial dilution to existing stockholders. All of these factors cause substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any

7

adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event we cannot continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Inventories

Stockpiled ore inventories represent mineralized material that has been mined and hauled to the surface from our Cross Mine. This inventoried stockpile is ready for shipping for further processing by an outside source. Stockpiles are measured by estimating the number of tons added and removed from the stockpile, the number of contained metal ounces or pounds (based on assay data) and the estimated metallurgical recovery rates (based on the expected processing method).

Ore stockpile inventories are carried at the lower of average cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value represents the estimated future sales price of the product based on current and long-term metals prices, less the estimated costs to complete production and bring the product to sale. Write-downs of stockpiled ore inventories, resulting from net realizable value impairments, are reported as a component of production costs applicable to sales. The current portion of ore stockpiles is determined based on the expected amounts to be processed within the next 12 months. Ore stockpile inventories not expected to be processed within the next 12 months, if any, are classified as long-term. AtFebruary 29, 2012, all ore stockpile inventories were classified as current.

Accrued Vacation

Our full-time employees are entitled to paid vacation, depending on job classification, length of service, and other factors.  A liability has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements for accrued vacation leave.

Revenue Recognition

We have generated limited income from the sale of gold from our ores processed at an offsite third party mill facility. Revenues from the sale of minerals are recognized when the ores are processed by the third party.

Foreign Currency


We have recorded amounts payable related to a convertible debenture that is denominated in Canadian dollars. As of AugustFebruary 29, 2012and May 31, 2011, and 2010 adjustments resulting from liabilities denominated in a foreign currency have been reported as other comprehensive lossincome in our financial statements.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We review and evaluate long-lived assets for impairment at least once per year, or more often when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. During the threenine months ended August 31,February 29, 2012andFebruary 28, 2011 and 2010, we did not record any impairment expense.

Use of Estimates and Significant Estimates

Certain amounts in our financial statements are based upon significant estimates including environmental remediation obligations, accrued liabilities and a provision for income taxes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications


Certain accounts and financial statement captions in the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the presentation in the current period financial statements.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


The Company evaluates the pronouncements of various authoritative accounting organizations, primarily the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), the SEC, and the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”), to determine the impact of new pronouncements on U.S. GAAP and the impact on the Company. 


In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820), which requires reporting entities to make new disclosures about recurring or nonrecurring fair value measurements including significant transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and information on purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2010-6 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for Level 3 reconciliation disclosures which are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. We do not have any assets or liabilities classified as Level 3. We have adopted the Level 1 and Level 2 amendments accordingly. As the update only pertained to disclosures, it had no impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows upon adoption.


Use

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05,Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) – Presentation of EstimatesComprehensive Income(“ASU 2011-05”). ASU 2011-05 requires entities to present net income and Significant Estimates


Certain amountsother comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive, statements of net income and other comprehensive income. ASU 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011 (November 30, 2012 for the Company). We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2011-05 to have a material impact on our results of operations, financial statements are based upon significant estimates including environmental remediation obligations, accrued liabilitiescondition, or cash flows.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12,Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) – Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05(“ASU 2011-12”). ASU 2011-12 defers changes in Update 2011-05 that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments. ASU 2011-12 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011 (November 30, 2012 for the Company). We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2011-12 to have a provision for income taxes. Actualmaterial impact on our results could materially differ from those estimates.

The original maturity date for the note was February 1, 2011. On January 15, 2011, we received forbearance under the terms of an agreement effectively extending the maturity date of the debt throughto June 30, 2011.

On June 8, 2011, we and the note holder extended the maturity of the note through October 31, 2011.

Duringore at a grade of 0.428 ounces per ton at a 96% recovery rate. The revenues from the three months ended August 31,February 29, 2012 were from stockpiles already delivered to an offsite mill and we need to accumulate approximately 500 tons of ore before the offsite mill will process another batch of our ores. We had 205 tons of ore stockpiled as of February 29, 2012.

Costs applicable to Sales

During the prior quarter ended November 30, 2011, we beganresumed test mining operations at our Cross mine.

The

increase in costs applicable to sales increased during the 20112012 period as we began ore extraction on our Cross mine property.

Included in these costs are waste ore removal and mine development costs that must be expensed immediately under generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. since we report no proven or probable reserves.

The increasedecreases of $260,294 (141%$727,040 (70%) was dueand $126,577 (8%) were the result of higher costs in the prior year for fund raising activities and for accounting costs as we began the process of attempting to increased wages and benefits expense, and increased consulting and professional feesregain compliance with SEC reporting requirements as discussed further below.

Other Income and Expenses


Gain on sale of assets. During the quarternine months ended August 31, 2011,February 29, 2012, the Company sold fully depreciated and idle assets for $156,500 in cash proceeds.

Liquidity


Because we have not yet commenced our intended primary operations and are not yet generating revenuesignificant revenues from any source, our liquidity is completely reliant on our ability to generate cash through capital-raising activities. During the threenine months ended August 31, 2011,February 29, 2012, we issued 4,660,000 shares13,626,668shares of our common stock for cash proceeds of $778,500.

$1,678,500.

Net cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the threenine months ended August 31,February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011 and 2010 were as follows:

The decrease in cash isworking capital deficits are primarily attributable to the fact that we have no significant revenues from operations and continue to incur expenses. We do not expect our working capital deficit to decrease significantly or cash balance to increase significantly in the near future.

Going Concern


The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on the financial statements as of and for the year ended May 31, 2011, includes an explanatory paragraph relating to the significant doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern. As of August 31, 2011,February 29, 2012, we had an accumulated deficit of $48.2 million$50.2million and have a working capital deficit of approximately $11.7 million.$11.8million. We require significant additional funding to commence our plan of operation. Our ability to establish ourselves as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional funding in order to finance our planned operations.


If we are unable to raise funds to repay or to otherwise settle the Brigus note, we will need to curtail current test mining activities at the Cross mine.

Plan of Operation

For the remainder of our 2012 fiscal year and into 2013, our primary goals are to regain compliance with the SEC and British Columbia Securities Commission (“BCSC”) so that we can apply for a revocation of a 2004 Cease Trade Order from the BCSC. We intend to continue to raise capital so that we may further explore extraction from our properties which began in August 2011, thereby bringing us out of the exploration stage. We cannot anticipate our exact cash requirements for the remainder of the fiscal year. We currently have maturingdelinquent debt obligations of approximately $10.5 principal and interest that was due December 1, 2011 to Brigus and we require a significant amount of capital to continue test mining at our Cross minemine. We are in discussions with Brigus and others to negotiate the repayment of the Brigus note, however, we cannot guarantee that a satisfactory agreement will be reached between Calais and Brigus or any other parties. In addition, we have ongoing lease payments on our mining properties and general and administrative expenses coupled with compliance related expenses. We will continue to need to raise capital to fund to fund our operations and to continue to exist.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


We do not have off-balance sheet arrangements.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates


For a discussion of accounting policies that we consider critical to our business operations and understanding of our results of operations, and that affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, see Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies” contained in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2011 and incorporated by reference herein.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not required by Form 10-Q for Smaller Reporting Companies.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under theSecurities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), are our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and

15

reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls

During the fiscal period covered by this report, our management, with the participation of the Principal Executive Officer and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us inPrincipal Financial Officer of the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, requires us to carryCompany, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and procedures as of August 31, 2011.  This evaluation was conducted15d-15(e) under the supervision and with the participation of David K. Young (our functioning principal executive officer and principal financial officer).Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, Mr. Youngour Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, the design and operationas of February 29, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures were notare effective because of the identification of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below that existed at May 31, 2011 and August 31, 2011.   In light of the material weaknesses described above, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure our financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).  Accordingly, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a set of processes designed by, or under the supervision of, a company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:

·     Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets;
·     Provide reasonable assurance our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
·     Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. It should be noted that any system of internal control, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including David K. Young (our functioning principal executive officer and principal financial officer), we conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), as of May 31, 2011, the end of our most recently completed fiscal year.

As a result of our material weaknesses described below, management concluded that, as of May 31, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on the criteria in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by COSO.

Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In connection with the assessment, management identified the following control deficiencies that represent material weaknesses at May 31, 2011: 
16


·  We rely on external consultants for the preparation of our financial statements and reports.  As a result, our management may not be able to identify errors and irregularities in the financial statements and reports.
·  We relied on one of our officers for oversight of the financial reporting process and, therefore, there was an inherent lack of segregation of duties with certain aspects of the financial reporting process, and a limited independent governing board.
·  We relied on an external consultant for the administration functions, some of which did not have standard procedures in place for formal review by the one officer who was providing financial oversight for us.

The internal control weaknesses identified above with regard to the failure to consistently record transactions and inadequate segregation of duties with certain aspects of the financial reporting process will only be completely corrected if the Company expands and has the capacity to perform necessary accounting functions and adequately segregate the duties to mitigate the risk in financial reporting.  This expansion will depend mostly on the ability of management to fully execute its business operating strategy as outlined in this report and generate enough income to warrant growth in personnel.  With regard to the internal control deficiency identified above related to preventative measures to properly and accurately account for the recording of the non-cash aspects of certain debt and equity issuances, management has already taken steps to mitigate such risk going forward by utilizing external financial consulting services prior to the review by our principal independent accounting firm to ensure that all information requiredrequire to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately and within the required time periods specified in the Commission’s rule and forms.

are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2011February 29, 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our increased our internal control over financial reporting.
